Chapter 572: [ Rage (2) ]
The cultivators felt themselves being in a dream.
Even the monsters that were attacking them just a while ago, causing them to feel despair and helpless, suddenly withdraw and turned towards that one youth, completely ignoring them. They probably considered them as powerless compared to that monster wreaking havoc in the sea of monsters!
“What kind of joke is this…”
Who knows who said it but it rapidly spread around the human crowd, watching the massacre.
All of them shared the same thought!
The one they were looking at was not just a human…… but a terrible demon ready to take lives as easy as lifting his hand.
With irresistible force, he attacked, piercing through in an incomparably savage way, blood spraying everywhere causing them to be terrified, not only them but to those several intelligent monsters!
In addition to those miserable cry of despair before their deaths. Tides of monsters and beasts approaching him from the front and back, whether he wanted to forge ahead, or intended to escape, it was simply no other way out. And when he approached, that terrible speed and the energy that caused them to tremble with fear simply didn’t allow them enough time to launch their attacks, only to become a part of the bloody path under his feet.
The group of cultivators slowly retreated and hide within the vast forest, but they can’t avert their eyes from the battle—staring with wide eyes, they remained silent for a very long time.
The truly exceptional master will never fear thousands of men and horses, because not just to mention ten thousand armies, even if it was to be a hundred thousand or a million armies, each time when they attacked a person only a few or more than ten persons will be able to truly charge attacks against him, the other people could only stand aside to observe. The ones behind them would just bear the leftover impact thrown to their front and they wouldn’t be able to do anything!
So, before true strength, everything before him was just an ant—thousands of monsters and beasts will not be able to trap an exceptional master.
So, facing god-level experts like the youth before them, the quantity was simply not a threat to him. If he wanted to go, even millions of monsters and beasts will not be able to hold him back.
... And of course, the most important factor was the power and speed—the movement speed and speed of attacks.
If the movement speed and power weren’t able to surpass the overall monster's strength, then it will be impossible to break free from the tangle of this kind of horde, it will drag on until all the strengths have been exhausted then die, and will the eventually be drowned amidst this terrible wave.
In addition, if there was someone with a similar level of strength impeding him, then he will certainly drown inside the horde, without any hope for escape.
But... the monstrous youth that had appeared like a God had all thrown this common sense aside and wreaked havoc in the horde without any problem.
... ...
The sadness and sorrow filled up his heart, as Allen felt gloomy from the aura of death. He lifted up his head facing the sky and sighed, figures of many persons flashed through his mind one by one, then he gently said: “Wait for me……I will surely be able to find a way to come back… I will surely see you again…”
This incident truly shook his heart.
Alkrasha and the other’s familiar aura caused the accumulated longing within burst out.
…And so, his anger…!
Feeling provoked, feeling fooled… such humiliation and fury filled his entire head.
“AhhhhHHH—!!!”
One loud roar, like a clap of thunder in the sky, shocking the hearts of every being. Allen’s eyes turned scarlet red, he charged into the crowd of monsters before his eyes, only to rip apart this horde. Following his approach, countless sharp claws and magic beams pierced towards his body—but at the right moment, he leaped up, the attacks missed their targets and then his hand aimed, countless bullets and magic beams with a burst of flame—
“…die! All of you just dieeee!!”
Allen swirled in the sky like a water strider on the surface of the water, he moves and flew with captivating grace as he shot the monsters around him one by one with the Demon Pistols.
BoooOOOOmmmMMM—!!!
A world-shaking loud sound echoed, the land affected by the power split open area by area, the monsters on the ground were being lifted up and flew out everywhere after they got hit by this great amount of power.
They got wrecked and smashed into pieces—scales and body parts went flying in all directions, the whole sky sprinkling with the rain of blood.
On the ground surface, the rocks and earth were as if being instilled by terrible powers, as they hit the crowd of monsters one by one.
A succession of clear and loud sounds, although the scales of the beasts and dragons were extremely thick, and the fur of high-level beasts were difficult to be damaged, but those rocks actually hit them hard as they got knocked off from behind with incredible speed.
Numerous high-level beasts suffered enormous pain from the hit of rocks as they constantly roared and cried, some of them even got their bones fractured, the number of casualties affecting the majority, a great scale of the defeat was evident among the horde of monsters.
This is the power of a Monster King!
The real power of the true Emperor!
The thick dust along with the bloody mist filling up the sky, Allen held both Demon Pistols while he stood on top of the pile of corpses.
With his feet as the center, a huge pit spread towards the surrounding area, the tiny stream of blood flowed down towards the surrounding, converging beside his feet like large rivers of blood. The wind stroke lightly, his head full of silver hair fluttered continuously, giving him a terrifying feeling and impression to those who look at him.
“… …”
Allen’s face was emotionless, his gaze was evidently disorganized. Under his attack, this time, the enemies within more than ten meters perimeter, several hundreds of monsters died with all their body parts missing.
The wind was reeking with the pungent bloody smell, the horde of monsters that surrounding the silver-haired Demonic Youth, shuddered, those cultivators who watched the entire battle were awfully shocked. They have witnessed too many deaths in the battlefields, yet they haven’t seen such a cruel bloody hell like this.
“This is simply a nightmare.”
One of the cultivators muttered in a low, terrified voice.
I don’t like blood…
I never like killing people, whether they were mindless beasts or monsters—!
I only wanted to protect every person beside me…
And yet… why will things always go against my desires?
Why do you force me to kill…?!
Why…?
Allen’s consciousness was wandering.
The Feather Dragons who seemed to be leaders among the army were shocked seeing the horde of beasts and monsters were killed casually and easily while the cultivators on the ground stood still feeling the chill from the merciless slaughter.
However, they can’t retreat nor back down—
RoooOOOaaaAAAArrrRRRR—!!
RoooOOOaaaAAAArrrRRRR—!!
RoooOOOaaaAAAArrrRRRR—!!
RoooOOOaaaAAAArrrRRRR—!!
RoooOOOaaaAAAArrrRRRR—!!
Monsters and Dragons alike roared in fury and hate—their powers burst out as their eyes turned bloody red! Leaving aside those stiffened weak-minded monsters shuddering in fear, hundreds and thousands were still beaming with the intent to kill! They could never fear anyone besides their one and only King!
RoooOOOaaaAAAArrrRRRR—!!
RoooOOOaaaAAAArrrRRRR—!!
The horde of beasts was attacking Allen one after another, faithfully executing their King’s order.
A black Vulture like monster creped behind him and fired its tentacles, but Allen didn’t turn around and only turned the wrist of his lowered arm where Ebony was and fired behind.
The bullet exceeding the speed of sound, coated with lightning easily gouged through the black Vulture’s forehead. Though it was still alive, the following bullets had absolutely taken its life like a scythe of a Death God.
Without stopping to look at their companion, four-eyed eagles rushed towards him from left and right at the same time. However, Ivory, crackling with golden lightning, blew the enemy on his left while Ebony blew off the one on the right.
Although Allen was like a wolf amidst the flock of sheep in the sky, at the corner of his eyes, Allen noticed that the situation on the ground was not as favorable as he was at. Although the cultivators had hidden in the forest, unfortunately, this is not a mere forest but a Domain.
No matter where they hide, they would still be assaulted by other monsters who were terrified of Allen, then turned their attention towards them who were weaker!
In the midst of their astonishment, they suffered from a surprise attack…… several dozen monsters turned towards them and started pushing them back.
Unauthorized usage: this tale is on Amazon without the author's consent. Report any sightings.
In fact, probably because of their high cultivation, they are holding up quite well, but those who were weaker behind them fell into a panic with the emergence of more beasts.
Some ignorant weaklings recklessly wave their hands and used their cultivation techniques. The blindly cast their skills that did not threaten the beasts, and almost hitting allies instead. Some drew their swords without thinking about others that are near them, causing further panic.
Compared to the higher realm cultivators and battle-hardened experts who were prepared and equipped for battle, and has plenty of practical experience, those who were clearly amateurs was not ready for a fight like this yet.
The ground…was a mess!
“Tsk—! Samael! Release them from the binds of Death!”
Allen muttered indifferently as he somersaulted in the sky.
[ Affirmative! The Gates of Hell shall open to receive repentance and protect the King! ]
Baadummm!!
Snap! With a snap of Allen’s finger, the dead corpses of monsters and cultivators alike were suddenly covered with black haze and started wriggling. It was like a scene from a horror movie… even Cultivators who were fighting was dumbstruck and some were sent flying due to being stunned and then hit by the monsters.
Their comrades and the other monsters who had died in their hands were suddenly standing up.
Rooooooaaarrr!!!
Awwwoooooohhh!!
Humans and monsters alike, with eyes showing crimson flames, stood up and attack the nearby enemy monsters.
“Wh, what is going on?!”
“Wha, what kind of black sorcery is this…!!?”
“Gyaaaahhh!! The dead, the dead are rising!!”
“An evil cultivator? In this Mountain?! That can’t be?! Aren’t Evil Sect forbidden from entering?!”
“No, this is not mere black magic!! There’s no such magic that can resurrect this many people in an instant and control them! Only God Realm Experts can do something like that! The Evil Gods of the Evil Sect—they can’t be here!!”
“Then, how…?!”
Without caring about the magic and control of the dead, Allen left it towards Samael and focused on slaughtering the monsters at the sky and ground, all the while raising the number of the undead!
“I’m going to slaughter all of you—and you Monster King, I know you are there, still observing? Your beasts are all going to die if you don’t come out and appear!” He coldly sneered.
“… …”
Allen looks at the cultivators that were being protected by the resurrected undead and then turned his gaze towards the horizon. His brows furrowed. Bang! Bang! Bang! Baaaaang! Shooting towards the monsters rushing at him, Allen turned into a beam of light and flew away from the location of the cultivators, bringing with him the horde of monsters that seemed endless.
When he saw that he was far enough from them, Allen sneered and muttered with ice-cold voice, “Still not going out, huh… then, regret it in the other world!!”
He leaned his body forward. For a brief moment, his eyes turned terribly cold, firmly fixed at the tide of monsters before him, his entire body illuminated with shocking red light…...
Those monsters who were chasing him wildly suddenly felt the atmosphere started to get somehow dry and hot, then immediately turned scorching hot. Such a transformation that had arrived all of a sudden, then completed within one second.
The next second, the originally dusky sky suddenly shone down a wide expanse of red light, reflecting a faint red light on the ground, they subconsciously lifted their heads to look, astonishingly the sky had turned red unknowingly, just like the hot flaming clouds that suddenly appeared before the evening; the beautiful color of Dawn.
If at first, it appeared like the colors of the hot flaming clouds then in the blink of an eye it transformed into some wood charcoals that were burning with a flame. An oppressive air shrouded the entire earth, those beasts and monsters all stopped running, stirring restlessly. What is happening?! Their instincts crying out and their bodies trembling with fear.
During this time, the wind and clouds changed, several flames appeared in the burning sky, the bursts of flames filling the whole sky were like meteors from the outer space, carrying the huge damaging force as they fell down from the sky, smashing to the crowd that started to get confused…...
Those flames filling the whole sky shrouded the entire crowd of enemies around him—they lifted up their heads, the vast stretch of flames became bigger and bigger in the pupils of their eyes, closer and closer…… that was the ultimate brightness they’ve seen in their entire lives.
The flames fell to the ground, creating a vast stretch of flame purgatory spreading out several hundred meters long, the crowd and the horde of monsters painfully howled, rolled around, run away within this sea of flames……
The flame had drowned out the earth; the miserable cries resonated through the sky, spreading to the distant forest, bringing the terrifying atmosphere to the entire domain.
The flames still continuously fall down from the sky, as if never-ending. The scarlet light of flames reflected a shade of red on Allen’s pale face, he laughed again, with a mocking smiling expression, the loathsome expression, mocking them for being petty and low.
Seeing the catastrophic despair and hearing the howls of pain and agony, Allen scoffed and finally the meteor rain that covered the entire sky had finally stopped. This kind of attack drains so much of his magic power and so, he only used for a moment.
However, the sea of flames continued, the miserable cries lessened, many monsters and beasts weren’t able to endure the burning pain in the midst of the flame, clawing their throats, ending their lives. Among the chaotic horde, were the confused streams of beasts, even if they wanted to escape, but there was no way out, but instead, they freed themselves as they died during the stampede.
The scorching heat started to gradually subside, the lights of the flames started to become weaker. This catastrophe had finally taken back its fierceful teeth.
Finally, the flames began to thin out, that originally huge crowd of monsters turned into burnt corpses that scattered all over the ground surface, producing an acrid burnt smell. Some of them, even turned into ashes, without any bones left, then scattered as the wind blew across.
“You hateful DEMOOOOON!!!”
Suddenly, at this very moment, a loud scream and furious cry reverberated in the entire domain, shaking the forest and the sky. Did it come? Allen wondered as he turned towards the source, only to see a large group of dragons rushing towards this place.
No… it’s not among them! Allen frowned as he couldn’t felt the same kind of being among the rushing monsters.
There’s no Monster King!
Woooosh. In an instant, a group of angry dragon arrived and circled Allen.
“You hateful demon! How dare you create chaos in the land of the Dragon King!! You deserve death!!” one of the elder-like dragons gritted his teeth and glowered at Allen angrily.
“Deserve death? How can you say that with a straight face! You are the one who pushed my hands! I have never offended you but you trapped me in here and wanted my life… do you think I would just smile and give you my head? Aren’t you too arrogant?” Allen grinned mockingly.
“You inferior race!! Just because you are of the same kind of our king doesn’t mean you are great! Who do you think you are?!”
“In our land, you will kneel or crawl before us!!”
“That’s right! Such blasphemy towards our king!”
“I can feel the draconic power from you, but it is impure! You are just a fake! A shame to our race!!”
“A shame like you needed to be eliminated!”
The Dragons one after another scowled at Allen.
“Hmph! Stupid! Mere pawns dared to stand in front of this king! You are courting death!!”
Bang! Bang! Bang! Baaang!!
As such peculiar sounds resounded in the battlefield; numerous flashes filled with enough killing intent speeded along the sky. The flashes reached their target without giving any time to wink. No matter how strong the several species of beasts that roared and made the earth and sky rumbled were, they were changed into a lump of grilled meat in a moment without any chance to resist.
“Yooo bastaaaard!!!”
“Kill this fraud for meee!!!”
“Hmph! Stupid beasts! You should have realized our difference in standing! your defeat is absolute!”
“…?!!!”
“A King can only be killed by another King…! Have you even not know that?!”
Allen somersaulted in the air, dodging an incoming attack and aimed for the ground and shot out several bullets. [ Explosion ] was cast on Ebony—magic bullets that had the same power with a rocket launcher, albeit stronger—and [ Sonic Blast ] was fired using Ivory.
The bullets hit the ground with the sound of an explosion. The compressed air from the [ Sonic Blast ] squeezes the face of the dragons together before blasting them along with the ground away.
The merciless magic destroyed a large amount of demon beast through carpet bombing. Allen then raised his both hands, the Demon Pistols immediately dematerialized, “[ Heaven’s Fall ]!!”
BaaaAAAnnnNNNgggGGG—!!
At the moment the magic’s name was announced, a black, swirling orb of six meters in diameter appeared above almost all the flying monsters including the Feather Dragons. The deep darkness that could suck in anyone who saw it immediately fell and crushed the monsters into the ground.
GuuRUaAAA!?
Roooaaa!!?
Aaaaaarrrr!!?
Roars and screams echoed in the surrounding as the monsters who owned the sky, felt Icarus emotions and feelings as they fell from the sky and then, with a crashing momentum, they sprawled on the ground, creating screams from the impact. However, the swirling orb, as if saying that’s not enough, didn’t disappear and exerted extreme pressure on the monsters again, sinking them into the ground.
Some instantly died from the pressure… some held on but with broken bodies…!
Looking at his masterpiece, Allen sneered. On his face, one couldn’t see victory and contentment that should be present—instead, he was laughing. This kind of laugh had caused anyone who saw it be powerless, almost having no face or courage to make contact with his eyes.
Now then, there was no problem up until this point, but…
Allen thought. Then, his eyes narrowed—the feelings it gave me from here on are starting to turn grim.
*Ding!
[ Enemy Sensed: Unknown Species: x1 Monster Level: Monster King. Feather Dragon: x8 Unknown species: x3 ]
[ Hoo~ It seems like you’re going to face one of the big bosses immediately. As expected of the Monster among Monsters… they are probably the only one who can stop your rampage~ ]
Aside from Uriel’s mechanical voice in his head, Allen heard a very annoying one.
“Romeia… are you dissing me? Which side are you really on…?”
[ No one… this is also your trial. I was actually quite worried since, among monsters here, only a few and can even only be counted with two hands are those monsters who can give you a good fight.
As for those who can defeat you, probably none even after increasing their stats and levels. This wouldn’t be a good and proper trial for you. Fortunately, the system had gathered even Monster Kings here in this place… though they served as the Last Bosses that wasn’t meant to be conquered to safeguard the World’s Dimension Balance, in this case, it can’t be helped.
You are really an enigmatic, incorrigible monster—if you are alive in the War of Myth, I wonder if the Gods and Demons would still have a relaxing time…? ]
“…I’ll thank you for the compliment, then,” Allen grinned wickedly.
His eyes narrowed—it seems like the ‘culprit’ is coming…
“Husband did something happe—” A golden light flashed across Allen’s chest and Mireya appeared, her face carrying a worried expression.
She and the other Tamed Beasts had felt Allen’s sudden change of emotions through their connection. In addition, Rebellion’s sudden warning. Thus, Mireya immediately came out. However, when she saw Allen’s face, she instantly swallowed back her words unconsciously.
Usually, Allen was always like whistling wind or making a troubled smile on his face. Sometimes he showed a serious face, a resolved face, a nostalgic face. Mireya who had been with him for two lifetimes had seen all those faces until now, but there’s one expression she always avoids remembering—and it was Allen’s current face.
There was nothing in it, an expression of “nothingness”.
Honestly, Mireya shuddered.
Buried memories and recollections past through her mind.
The thing that she always hopes, Allen would never show again.
The eyes without any emotion in it, staring straight at the horizon—straights towards several lights that were rushing towards here, and the expression where all emotion had slipped off cleanly from it, it was as though the person there wasn’t Allen anymore.
“I don’t know if it’s just an illusion, misconception, or was it real… or your own doing just to trap me, you Monster King. Either you are the one who tried deceiving me by imitating their auras or you block me from seeing them again when they are in the real world—but either way, you had successfully pissed me off…!” Allen muttered coldly. His voice soft yet for some reason, it echoed in the entire place.
“Mas, ter…?!”
“Husband?!”
“Young… master?!”
Those words lacked intonation. There, not just, Mireya, even the newly appeared tamed beasts led by Qin also noticed.
Their beloved master, Allen—had “snapped”.
No matter how anyone looked, that expression was of anger, like a volcano on the verge of erupting. It was also an appearance with extreme intensity. It wasn’t at the level of the anger he showed when one of them was hurt by someone. At that time there was still some saving grace. As long as they were in good health, Allen would still show mercy or somewhat act reasonably.
That was why, even though Allen was angry when that happens, he wasn’t totally angry. But, right now was different. Her family was always been her reverse scale and if someone were to use to that towards him, Allen would feel violated—
That was why, the feeling that Allen held――was rage.
Complete Rage!
The Wrath of the King that was violated… will always be beyond redemption…!
