Chapter 156: [ The Avestan Monster King! ]

“Hmph! Even if you are a Monster King! We are the people who served the great Master! We don’t obey and respect other Kings except for our Master!”

Monster King?

Sara and the others frowned at hearing something unfamiliar.

But judging from the title and the Minotaur’s reaction, it was certainly an extremely special title that only few can achieve.

But still, is Magwayan a Monster King?

But the Minotaur was not fazed at all. “My Master ordered us to clean this place! And that includes you!”

He raised his Axe and yelled. “Kill them all!!”

Aooooooooooooohhhh!!!

Arrrrrrrrrrrroooooooaaarrrrr!!!

Receiving the order, all the monsters immediately rushed towards the soldiers. However, no one dared to attack Allen who was standing nonchalantly in front of them.

“You’ve made your choice,” Allen muttered in a cold voice.

The dead rose and immediately started to attack the monsters.

Higher level monsters cut and bit at the undead coming towards them, but they just rose up again and stretched out bloody hands to the monsters.

Seeing this sight that seems to be out from a zombie movie, even Sara and the others freaked out.

They looked around. The other soldiers were also lost due to this bizarre sight.

The monsters slaughtered the dead for the second time and those monsters that were killed once again stood up and attack the other living monsters, increasing their number.

Cutting them in the abdomen didn’t kill them, tearing their limbs didn’t stop them. Instead, they kept staring with resentful eyes as they used their broken bones and mouth as their weapons.

It was a hell-like pandemonium.

Sara looked at the youth who was the source of all this.

The black-clothed youth, the necromancer named Magwayan.

A black haze extended from his body to dominate the battlefield.

At this moment, Sara and the others felt an instinctive fear towards him.

Necromancy was a strength that could be called the antithesis of life.

It can be called as one of the greatest power in the world…

Allen caught a monster’s neck passing by him with his bare hands, lightning emerging from his hands.

The tremendous lightning storm!

The monster became a charred body. He threw it towards the enemies and roared.

[ Liger’s roar ]

The monsters were stunned and their movements halted. Undead rushed towards the monsters like wolves in a flock of sheep…

This situation angers the Minotaur. Although he has some fears towards Allen, after all, he was a Monster King but he was also a warrior with his Master’s orders!

Clenching the two-handed huge Axe, it charges towards Allen.

Looking at the incoming monsters, Allen narrowed his eyes.

He didn’t use his Lightning as he wanted to test his other power.

He spread his arms and said,

“May I have power in my heart, may I have power in my arms, may I have power in my legs, may I have power in my mouth, may I have power in all my members may I have power over invocation-offerings, may I have power over water ... air ... the waters ... streams ... riparian lands ... men who would harm me ... women who would harm me in the realm of the dead ... those who would give orders to harm me upon earth.”

The author's narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.

Spell words… Although he doesn’t know all Osiris power he still acquired some of it.

“Mighty, mighty is Osiris in victory, and he is firmly stablished with life.”

An unknown power surged through him.

He cocked his head and a smile blossoms in his youthful face.

Boom!

He charged. A depression was formed from his feet.

His speed was double of his original. It was so fast that he seems invisible to the eyes of Sara and the others.

His brain worked extremely fast and in an instant, he managed to predict where the Minotaur would swing his Axe.

To the right…

Allen immediately changed his course and went to the left where the monster was open.

The Axe brushed past him in hair’s breadth.

Allen clenched his fist and, Bang! He delivers a strong punch on the defenseless side of the Minotaur.

Gaau!? The Minotaur was sent flying, crashing into a group of beasts, killing them in the process.

Allen landed softly on the ground. He looked at his fist. It was emitting smoke as if it was burned but for him it was nothing.

In the first place, it was just emitting smoke and his skin was still unblemished. The toughness of his body is already in another realm.

But even still… heat..

As expected, “You’re a Hadhayosh Minotaurus… aren’t you?”

Allen asked.

Grrrr - The Minotaur or should it says, the Hadhayosh struggled to get up. Golden colored blood was leaking from the corner of its mouth.

With that punch, normal monsters should have died… but,

“As expected of a Hadhayosh, rumored to be created by a very precise god of the forge. Your defense is incredible… impressive.”

In Legends and Myths, Hadhayosh is a land creature from ancient Persian mythology that is often likened to the Behemoth of modern and Hebrew culture. It was also called the Sarsaok.

Allen crushed a monster that was near him, some were sent flying. Several monsters near him exploded in succession and the Undead that slaughters all his monsters…

This is the power of the [ King ].

Only one word can describe it.

Overwhelming!

The sight of the monsters killed by the undead suddenly started rising and attacking another living monster was an extremely bizarre and terrifying spectacle.

There were some monsters who wanted to attack Allen but they were intersected by Undeads, protecting Allen and killing the living monsters.

Allen, on the other hand, was continuing his nonchalant expression. Sometimes, his right arm burned with blue flames incinerating a living monster alive and sometimes rock spikes protruded around him, skewering monsters that are not far away from him.

It was a strange war filled with the living and the dead.

Not far away from his position, a human screamed in pain. His head flew through the air.

The monster who cut him with his sharp claws roared. Then, a claw pierced its head. Behind the monster was an Undead Panther.

At that moment, The Minotaur, Hadhayosh instinctively believe,

He can’t win against him!

The sprouting fear is too difficult to erase.  Forcibly entrapping him, all efforts to fight against it was in vain.

Afraid of the strong, the timeframe to run, tell his master about the existence of a [ King ] that trespassed his territory and make him deal with it. Those thoughts repeatedly came to him.

However, his feet are frozen in fear and he can’t move at all.

Then the sins he had committed flashed inside his mind.

The people he killed while laughing, the city that he had razed, the female whether they were humans or not that he had assaulted…

His entire life flashed before his eyes…

Not choosing to escape when he realized the opponent’s identity is literally a deadly mistake.

Already, Allen walked towards him. His movements are unhurried and calm. As if nothing in this world can make him anxious… desperate.

But unbeknownst to the Minotaur, he was actually digging his own grave.

The black haze was slowly entering his body without him knowing, affecting his state of mind. This was Allen’s power…

Once fear bud, it was like a parasite and it would leach on you, creating a fear that would never disappear.

As they say, one’s fear is the strength of the enemy.

It’s the same with Monster Kings.

As soon as you cower, you will become the prey, instead of the hunter. If they see your weakness, they will gain strength and trample you, showing you how weak and small you are…

“You!” His voice trembling. “My, my Master is the great Azi Dahaka! My, my Master will kill you!!”

“Azi Dahaka?” Allen frowned after hearing that name.

It wasn’t an unfamiliar name and it’s not like Allen knew him… Instead, this name was extremely familiar to any human especially Persians… those living in Iran.

In legends, he was called Zahhāk.

An evil figure in Iranian mythology.

He is described as a monster possessing three heads with one mouth and two eyes each. He is cunning, strong and demonic or so it was told.

Aži Dahāka appears in several of the Avestan myths and is mentioned parenthetically in many more places in Zoroastrian literature.

So he’s one of the Monster Kings? This is bad…

If he really was the one in Legends… then he would be an extremely powerful monster comparable to the Monkey King!

( Hadhayosh - The Hadhayosh is a land creature from ancient Persian mythology said to have been created by a meticulous god of the forge. Legend has it that the bodies of these creatures possess the uncanny ability to grant eternal life, the divine right to rule, and above all, the attention of the Gods.

The Hadhayosh resembles a gigantic ox with a skin made of polished brass and a mane of pure flames. Six huge solid brass horns sprout from the creatures' head with one pair at the sides like that of a common ox while the other two pairs curve frontwards like that of some accursed demon.

Azi Dahaka - Zahhāk or Zahāk - meaning "he who owns ten thousands of horses - is an evil figure in Iranian mythology, evident in ancient Iranian folklore as Aži Dahāka (Azh dahak), the name by which he also appears in the texts of the Avesta. In Middle Persian he is called Dahāg or Bēvar-Asp, the latter meaning "[he who has] 10,000 horses". In Zoroastrianism, Zahak (going under the name Aži Dahāka) is considered the son of Angra Mainyu, the foe of Ahura Mazda. )
