Chapter 624: [ Victory for the First War ]
“Haaaaa!!!”
The people immediately scattered away. However, unexpectedly there were two people standing their ground, one man while the other was surprisingly a woman, as they struck the shield on their bodies at the ground.
All their magic powers surged out, coating their bodies in golden shine.
BooOOmmMM—!!
The large tail hit the two people’s shields, causing a large explosion to echo within the battlefield. However, like an immovable mountain, the two people actually withstood the attack. They screamed out loudly and their bodies glowed shiningly.
The stronger their cries were, the stronger they seemingly get as they even slowly and slowly pushed back the giant python’s tail… startling the monster!
“Light Arrow Rain!"
When the distance was close, Eerika’s eyes narrowed and she shot herself in the sky. Raising her hand above her, she shot out thousands of golden arrows made entirely of the light attribute.
Wooosh. Wooosh. Woosh.
Thousands of light arrows were all fully embedded into the giant python’s body, causing the snake to shriek even stronger as if it was truly in pain. The other Asgardians took advantage of this opportunity and charged in, one with a large saber, a Halberd, a Battle Axe and one with a hook, leaving many slashes and cuts on the giant snake’s body.
The monster let out a painful cry as blood splashed on the ground, Gyaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh—!!!! but when the blood splashed on the ground, leaves, branches, corpses, those who were splashed by the blood sizzled and started smoking, like a butter splashed with hot oil—melting.
“God’s Lightning Bolt! Heaven Punishment!!”
CRACKLE! BOOOOOOM—!!!
One of the youth, named Asger leaped into the air and slashed down his sword. It was then followed by a large thunderbolt from the sky, striking the giant serpent’s body.
This lightning bolt was far stronger than before, in fact, it was used with all of Asger’s power—the giant python’s eyes had already started swirling and seemed to be on the verge of losing consciousness, its large mouth agape!
The giant python’s eyes slowly turned white and it was now starting to fall over.
At this time,
“DIEEEE!!!”
Eerika, like a raging mad god, immediately utilized the opportunity and launch herself towards the giant python. With her Blue Star Destroyer Spear in hand, she flew like a blinding star, thrusting her spear into the python’s lower jaw.
Blood splattered as the spear struck its body. However, Eerika didn't stop and instead, she stepped over the python’s body which was still smoking hot and dragged her spear behind her with a loud cry. The spear tip embedded into the python, dragging a deep bloody crevice in its body.
Flesh and blood flew into the sky.
This single spear strike had split the python from head to tail!
SshhhhHHHaaaaAAAAA—!!!
The Toxic Flood Python issued a horrifying scream, its hissing shriek breaking apart stone and caused the entire forest to tremble.
Massive arcs of lightning wound around its body from Asger’s attack, and blood erupted like a waterfall from the giant fissure left behind by Eerika’s spear, Troy’s Saber and other still Asgardian elites that had taken the opportunity to deal a fatal blow—gushing out dozens of feet high!
At this moment, Eerika’s entire body was bathed in blood, and her hair tie had loosened during the attack. At this moment, she was like a demonic lord that crawled up from the Ashura Hell, infernal and unstoppable!
Her beautiful golden strands of hair swayed in the air, like golden rays of the Mighty Sun but spots of red blood tainted the sun, giving an unusual charm and allure. Her stance was menacing, and her grandeur was threatening. As if a God had descended into the world of mortals, she looked down on her opponents the way Gods overlooked living beings on Earth.
“… …”
At that moment, the entire area was silenced.
Even a needle drop could be heard.
Gaze after gaze fixated onto Eerika who was standing powerfully at the top of the Flood Python, one after another, all of which were full of respect. It was as if the young girl before them was not just a young girl.
But a God.
…on their eyes, it was Eerika they had seen but the Hero of Asgard, the God of Light—Balder Odinson.
… …
Seeing this distant one-sided great battle take place, all the soldiers and warriors watching the battle were left speechless.
This 200-foot long great python reached to the skies, its blood raining to the earth.
This scene was too impactful on their minds.
Did they win?
They actually…won?!!
After three, four minutes of silence, someone finally accepted reality and yelled, “They won!! Ms. Eerika won!!!”
This yell had woken everyone up.
Everyone finally believed what they had seen, and they were all red-faced and yelled in excitement –
“AAaaaahhhhhHHHH—!!!”
“YeeessssSSSS—!!”
“WwwooooaaahhhHH—!!”
“As expected of our Clan’s Heroes!! Wwwoooohhhh!!!”
“ASGARRRDDDD!!”
“ASGARRRDDDD!!”
This tale has been unlawfully obtained from Royal Road. If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it.
“ASGARRRDDDD!!”
The crowd of soldiers and warriors were jumping in joy.
These young people had actually won!
They had cut down a peak fourth-level Toxic Flood Python that even a platoon of High Human and Godkin soldiers would find hard to defeat in just a few minutes! Unbelievable! The people went crazy. It was way too surprising for them for younger people to be able to defeat a Toxic Flood Python so easily without the help of the older generation!
As expected of the geniuses of Asgard.
They had helped protect and save countless lives of the soldiers.
Thinking like this, just like pouring a cup of water into a pot of boiling oil, heat exploded everywhere. Every defender felt a burning sensation inside of them, like a fire wanting to burst open. All the excitement and glory of fighting beside these geniuses that can be said to be the new pillars of the new generation of Asgard came together and formed into one cry.
“ASGARRRDDDD!!”
“Oh~ Amazing, I guess that’s my girl for ya~”
As they the people started to feel new boiling energy within them, suddenly a peal of bright and clear laughter came from above. And from the dome of dark clouds, a vertical fissure appeared and a cold chill immediately spread through the crack and a child appeared from the crack—angelic pretty face yet with a demonic appearance and presence.
His brows straight, lips red, teeth pearly, and his robe was black as obsidian and hair black as ink. As if he was an immortal who descended to the mortal world, he had a refined handsomeness about him that made him stand out wonderfully.
"That's quite flashy even for my girl,"
He was talking casually and nonchalantly but when people saw him, they can’t help but edge back in fear and shock because of certain something in his hand which he was dragging around with him.
Allen’s hand looked like a dragon’s claw, covered by azure scales like expensive sapphires. Allen was actually bringing an almost frozen to death Old Demon by the throat.
Seeing this, many people turned in a daze. They were looking at Allen’s leisurely appearance, even his clothes or anything was not least bit creased or dirty, and instead, he looked as if he had gone from vacation, feeling extremely refreshed.
They widened their eyes at the stunning sight before them. One must know, this Old Demon was extremely powerful, even powerful enough to contend against the greatest Asgard Heroes and Protectors of the generation, including the War God Eric Thor.
But now, he was actually being dragged by a small and slender boy nonchalantly as if he was nothing but a dog…!
“Well, I guess I give you 10 points for that finisher, my lady~”
Allen’s childish stature stood upright, grabbing the old reptilian like a demon by the throat, and dragged him up as he walked.
The Old Demon, who had earlier displayed great power, was now like a vulnerable baby. He looked pathetic and weak. He was still groaning and seemingly struggling, showing that he was still alive. But he should be wishing to die now rather than live this kind of humiliation.
“… …”
The entire place was in total silence.
The scene was too shocking, and no one dared to make a sound.
No one had expected such a turn of events.
The Old Demon, who was showing and displaying his awesome prestige and had the upper hand a while ago, was now suppressed by Allen until he looked like he was a little child being dragged by him. In fact, due to Allen’s current state, he was actually the one who looks like a child but he was actually dragging almost twice or even probably trice his size without care at all!
Isn’t this too awesome?
Just what had happened inside?
The onlookers were astonished by Allen’s strength. He had reached a terrifying level that had way surpassed the Old Demon or probably even their great master, War God Eric, as one should know, even Eric Thor was almost at the standstill against the Old Demon, although just barely having slight superiority. Though that is still questionable since Eric Thor had not yet used his own Domain or full power yet. Even still…!
What is going on?
Everyone could see that the Old Demon’s face had turned red. He struggled crazily, looking humiliated and vicious. However, no matter what he does, he just couldn’t get away from Allen’s grip.
In fact, his body which was slowly being frozen solid as if he was petrified by a basilisk or Medusa herself, he couldn’t undo it no matter what he does, he could only slow it. But the one who makes him wanted to die in anger was that—Allen surely has the power to kill him now. But despite that, he seemed to be playing with him, slowly making him suffer from cold and chill.
It would be best if it was a normal human, whether they are High Human or Godkin, if they are in the same position, they would have died by now. But Demons have a superior life force and vitality and so it was extremely hard to kill them. Normally, it would be a good trait but now—it was nothing but a cursed!
He nearly exploded out of anger.
All these years, he had been invincible and had surpassed those who were of his age.
The people respected him, and he had always triumphed over his opponents. He had never expected himself to be in such a pathetic state. This was not something the Old Demon could swallow, given his pride. He would rather die than to be humiliated.
“Sol!!!”
The moment Allen appeared, Eerika immediately run towards him, anxious and happy at the same time.
Seeing his pretty princess, Allen’s lips curled up into a smile. However, because of his current height and stature, instead of embracing Eerika, he was instead the one being burrowed into her chest as the former hugged her so tightly in excitement.
This also caused Allen to let go of the Old Demon’s throat.
However, even still, the Old Demon couldn’t move. Vines made out of Ice suddenly appeared from the ground, coiling around his body, like real snakes. His four limbs had already turned into ice and the solidification was now slowly creeping towards his shoulders and neck. Though, if one has a good eye on them, they would surely notice that a faint white silk-like thing was connected between the Old Demon’s body and Allen’s.
As for what is this, only Allen knows…!
Eerika was crying in happiness, to this Allen was moved. She wasn’t even minding his current demonic appearance and hugged her so tightly it’s as if she was pushing him into her body.
“I’m glad you’re alright! I’m really glad you’re alright!” she was muttering the same thing.
To this, Allen can’t help but smile wryly, what? Did you forget that this body is just a clone? Even if this body dies, it wouldn’t mean anything…
But he didn’t say it… probably, Eerika’s mind was overtaxed this time due to the war and she was easily influenced by many things, such as emotions going haywire. No matter how strong a person is, once attack by mental exhaustion, even a God would have no chance but to kneel!
Allen circled his arms on her waist and stroked her back gently.
“Good Job, You really tried hard. I’m so proud of you, so you can rest easy now. I’m here...”
He was almost laughing while speaking, but his tone was full of affection.
“Hm… Hmm…” Eerika nodded, her tears couldn’t stop as her tense nerves started to feel at ease and relax.
Allen smiled and slowly separated from her. Extending his hand, he wiped her tears with his thumb. It would be good if I was really the one you love… sadly, this life is nothing but an interlude of the song. Allen couldn’t smile bitterly.
Well, at least, you have loved a part of me… that, I am confident with…
Allen’s expression turned gentle. The horns, wings, demonic marks, and even the tail, for a moment, wavered as if they were going to disappear—though that was only for a moment before his gaze turned normal. He floated in the air and patted Eerika’s head, like a parent praising his beloved child.
Eerika smiled sweetly. Her beautiful face beamed so brightly that it makes all the people dazzled. Troy saw her expression and could only sigh—even if he has her, he doubts that she would show such expression to him…
I guess… I lost…
As the Old Demon was gritting his teeth, a cold shiver suddenly ran down his spine. Because he saw Allen looking at him flatly with cold killing intent.
Swoosh! In the next instant, Allen’s hand moved. The Old Demon was struck dumb with amazement. He knew what Allen was about to do. He wanted to eradicate him completely!
"Wai…"
The Old Demon gritted his teeth and turned pale. He had to admit defeat and surrender. If he did not do that, Allen would definitely kill him, given his character.
Although the Old Demon’s pride would be hurt, he was not an impractical person. It was better to lose his pride than to lose his life. He could always make a comeback. However, if he lost his life, everything would be over. He was confident that as long as he lived, he would make the traitor regret what he had done! As long as he can return to the Legion alive, he must report the hatred of today…!
The Old Demon wanted to use Allen’s empathy as a Demon, who still cherished his kind. Because he knows that Allen loves the God Clan girl wholeheartedly. Then, it means he still has a heart—he is still soft, is what he thought.
Too bad, it’s only wishful thinking.
To anyone who dares give the slightest danger to the people he loves and cherished, Allen wouldn’t spare them even if they are young or old, men or women!
When his wrath is pricked, everyone is the same white bones in his eyes!
He might be feminist and is not fond of hurting women but for those he loves, he would be a demon willingly!
In this aspect, he was truly different from the other Allen, in killing and slaughter he was not repugnant on such things!
He knows better than let the tiger set free inside the mountains!
Before the Old Demon could say the last word, Allen’s arm flickered.
Majestic cold energy exploded and his fingers were bursting with colorful rays, still in the form of an eagle’s claw. He bent his fingers, like a claw, and stabbed quickly into Old Demon’s chest.
