Hope you enjoyed this chapter! :-D
XD… and that’s it, I will try to restore all CHAPTER EMBLEMS into chapters now that the next day is Saturday. My hands kept moving nonstop as I start to get excited myself. It might be wordy but it is just like me to write it. XD My midterms exam is still unfinished but I will give time to write the chapters since some of you don’t like the EMBLEMS too much. I only used it because I am extremely busy.
Chapter 76 is on the way! :-)

Chapter 75 – Retaliation
Cellux: Lord Nelus… what spell did you use?
Cellux said with admiration as he stared at Nelus with sparkling eyes. As for Andros, he was deeply shocked at the spell, as for many years of living in the land of light, no matter how much time had passed or spells created, this spell felt quite unique at the same time, unfair, little did he know that this spell has a harsh condition for it to be used.
One is that multiple people will still have the will to fight against those stronger than them, if only one has the will to fight then the spell cannot be used and at the same time, the user must have an extremely large mana capacity. As even Nelus’ mana was almost sucked dry, especially considering his aptitude with War God spells is really low as he is a slight opposite which is a God of Creation.
Andros: (What a formidable spell… to turn the tides with just that… I guess I really owe Ciall, a big favor… if it wasn’t for that miraculous spell we could have been goners.)
Nelus: What spell…?
Nelus said with a confused face as Llyra wiped Nelus’ memories for a few moments; she wanted to reveal herself to him only if the time comes as it seems she is gathering power to break the curse that locked her, even if she destroyed the curse she still cannot be reincarnated but even so she wanted to ease Nelus’ pain. She have been watching over Nelus longer than anyone else and it pains her to see him like this, lost and emotionless.
Rezald: (Ahahaha… my viewpoints on Gods are really shallow, who knew such a miraculous power existed… actually, I already died as they use a peculiar spell and corroded my insides… I guess, I should expect a lot more since Bro Nelus, told me that he will not show his true power at all cost, but… I can’t help but become curious…)
Riseos was grinding his teeth as he look at Nelus furiously, him, Trigus and Lexa have been planning this for ages, to gather all powers in one spot and eliminate them. Even Rezald, who blocked the spell he have been saving for an innumerable amount of years which can cause any immortal to die, managed to live and even heal! His eyes became deep crimson as despite his witty and cautious behavior, rushed towards Nelus to kill him when suddenly, two figures appeared in front of him.
Rezald: Oops, you’re not going to go farther than that!
Rezald said with a grin as he pointed Lasteon towards Riseos as he frowned.
Riseos: You have been an annoyance! For a fragile human you have been a pain!! Just die already!!!
Halvard smiled and glared at Riseos, it seems Halvard had something to do with Riseos as anger filled him. Halvard blocked Riseos’ punch filled with dark converted mana as he cast a familiar spell.
Halvard: This is for killing my father!!
Cellux too glared at Riseos hearing that one of his best friends during the war was killed by him. As for how did Halvard know about this, it was because of the Luminant race’s Mind Connection which is innately born within them which they use for far off communication. Halvard then started chanting as Riseos was startled as he knew what chanting a spell means… it means an X-S rank spell is coming!
Riseos, rushed toward Halvard to stop him, as Rezald transforms his spear into a greatword as his mana was still recovering so he cannot use the staff for the moment as it uses too much mana and it will become risky if he does use it as if his mana will be completely out it will render him unconscious which is unfavorable considering the situation.
Rezald then used one of his manaformed weapon’s skill, which is Gale manipulation as he is the Hero of the Earth and the Sky after all so his aptitude for wind spells have greatly increases, the reason why he only used it recently was because he wasn’t comfortable using it as they are of the complete opposite elements after all. Ever since teaching in Lux Academy, he had to use them as an example leading him to get used to use spells other than of the earth element. He spun his greatsworn above him greating wild gales that managed to push back Riseos a little.
[Dark blade that once, the reaper of life held in his hand. A blade that encompasses many forms, a scythe to extract the soul, a bow to guide the soul and a blade to destroy the soul! Manifest onto this immortal that has chosen to side with death. Lead the living into the depths of darkness.]
Rezald: It seems different from the one from before…
Rezald thought while fending off Riseos. Riseos then pointed one of his arms toward the sky as an enormous dark sphere appeared on the sky while attacking Rezald with the other. Rezald then shouted.
Rezald: Soldiers! Attack that thing with the spells you used earlier to stop it!!
???: We can’t captain Rezald! We are all out of mana…
Rezald: What!? This is bad…
Nelus: (Looks like I have recovered most of my mana.)
Nelus then gathered mana onto his hand as he converted it to ice. He then stretches it towards the sphere and used a spell… Absolute Zero, this time Nelus’ eyes turned crystal blue as the power input was incomparable to before as the spreading ice was like an army of coiling snakes as it wraps around the sphere, completely freezing it. Cellux then appeared behind it and lifts it up as he threw it while flying in the air, towards Riseos. Riseos then had no choice but to reveal his trump card. The sphere then crashes onto him as it was too big to dodge. Still, Rezald and the others knew this wasn’t enough to defeat him.
[Come to me weapon of oblivion. Slay those who have endless lives and put them to rest. Show how mighty thou corrupted power. Destroy the purity of the world. Bring utter chaos unto these lands. Now rise, rise! Immortal Slayer, Arkeam!!]
Rezald: You completed it!?
Rezald said with praise in his voice as Halvard daringly smiled and said.
Halvard: Yes, all for defeating this Demon King, even if I won’t manage to kill you I could at least severely injure you!
Riseos: All of you are a pain… ggrrraaahhh!!!
Riseos, then appeared from the mist created by the crashing ice as his eyes were blood red. A pair of fangs appeared on his mouth; his wings grew wider and appeared like it was made of iron due to its jet black metallic luster. His wings combined into only a pair of huge ones as each flap created a large shockwave, he was wearing a dignified black armor with crimson linings.
He was solemnly holding a sword which was pointing downward towards the ground with both of his hands above it. He was then staring at us with disdain as his horns appeared and this time his horns were completely visible. He used a skill he created, Demonic core. He then rushed towards Halvard as he too knew that even in this form he was still susceptible towards the ominous dark blade Halvard was holding. Someone then flew and block his path… it was Cellux.
This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version.
Cellux frowned as he knew this form somehow as if he faced it before so he too used something of the same caliber, Divine Combat Style: Stance 1, Divine Drive. Even if his divinity was limited, it would at least take 1 year of using Divine Drive and fully deplete his divinity. Still, because of the sudden usage of a large amount of divinity he will slowly grow weaker as time passes until he returns to his original strength. His ten wings were overshadowed by ten even larger wings made of divinity as if there are twenty wings behind him. His eyes’ aura was so dense that it looked like his eyes were burning with pure white flames while his armor was slowly being filled with divinity as it filled the silver linings on his platinum colored armor.
Riseos: Don’t get in my way.
Riseos then slashed his sword made of darkness towards Cellux and to his surprise it was easily deflected, on Cellux’ hand was a sword filled with holy power; before it became a sword it had a gun like structure. It felt like Rezald’s spear during a form-up as it transforms into a staff. Nelus then used God’s Eyes towards it.
Legend Sword , Excalibur (Form Up – version) Type:Gun (Sword), Mana WeaponDurability:?? / ??Quality:S(X)A legendary sword of unknown origins. A form of a mystical weapon known as a “gun” it was said that this weapon before being passed on to this world came from a world filled with high technology with ancient history. Legend foretold that it came from a human otherworldly being called “Arthur”. He was a knight that became a king with a mage by his side who had also turned into an otherworldly being, called “Merlin”, they found this sword in a stone called the “time stone” which thought to transcend time and came from the future explaining its unusual characteristics.
Abilities:
4 Weapon Forms
Form Up
Holy Enforce
Energy of Light
Cellux then slashes it downward towards Riseos as sparks flew as the two swords clashed. Surprisingly, Riseos’ element weapon didn’t dissolve as if it was on par with Cellux’ Excalibur. It was because Riseos has perfected his element weapon to the point he was able to imbue a part of his soul within it each time he uses Demon Core. As they clashed, at first Cellux managed to push him back but it was because of Riseos being surprised. Even if Cellux was the strongest being of divinity, Riseos as king of all demon races doesn’t fall back.
Suddenly, something struck heavily on Riseos’ back. It was a piece of condense earth, shot by Rezald. Using, this chance, Cellux stabs his sword towards him as he parries it. NNelus then while finishing a large scale Spatial Barrier around them, decided to watch as he felt that Halvard and Cellux has something personal to do with Riseos, even Rezald niticed this so he only helped a little.
Cellux then used Divine Combat Style: Stance 20, Sword of Divinity as his sword was covered completely by divinity and used Divine Combat Style: Stance 21, Divine Oppression to shape it exactly like his sword. He then slashes it towards Riseos’ neck as he blocks it. He then frowned while glaring at Cellux as he spat a mouthful of blood as his sword was still connected to his soul. In this moment of opening, Cellux used one of his sword’s skill, Holy Enforce as a bright light illuminated the field despite the land of darkness’ natural dark surroundings only illuminated by glowing plants. He then flew up farther into the air and sharply dives down with his sword pointing downwards as he forcefully pushed Riseos down.
Riseos: Aaaagghhh!!!
As Riseos was near the ground something passed through his armor, piercing his chest. It was Halvard, who took the perfect timing to act as he did not dare do so earlier sensing his power far surpasses him. He saw Cellux gaze that meant to leave it to him so all he had to do was strengthen his blade with his mana to find the best opportunity to strike. Riseos’ wings returned to normal as black blood flowed out. He pushes Halvard with every inch of his strength, startling Halvard. He looked towards Trigus as it seems. Wedea, Melzir, Andros managed to push back Trigus with a little help from Nelus from time to time… actually that “little help” actually dealt a heavy blow on Trigus making Andros and the others smile wryly.
At first Trigus and the three were easily a match, even id Andros’ strength equaled Trigus, he was still recovering as he was severely injured moments ago. With the help of Wedea and Melzir they managed to equal it out but when Nelus cast Pyro Flariga… it crippled Trigus right arm, making it hard for Trigus’ extremely fast natural recovery to fix it. It would take a week for him to recover making him furious. Risos then disappeared as he created a portal of darkness. He pulled Trigus with him as Trigus tries to shake him off.
Trigus: Let go of me! I will kill this Andros bastard!!
Riseos: Now is not the time for this…
Trigus: What are you talking… about…
Trigus then looked at Riseos and as he saw Riseos’ wound his face paled. He knew how formidable this demon king is and to injure him this severely then how can he who is weaker than Riseos take on both sides? He then gritted his teeth and entered the portal.
Riseos: We will be coming back, you’ll see!!
Trigus: We must get you treated; it looks like it isn’t healing much.
Riseos: Kuuhh… for me to get this reckless, how foolish of me. Hahahahaha!!!
Still, Riseos smiled as it was the first time he was forced to retreat like this when he was this serious. He then closes the portal as shock invaded him.
Riseos: Why can’t I leave!?
Halvard: We knew about your spell to transport using darkness so we made something to counteract it. Around this place there is a circular made of light, devoid of any shadows or darkness preventing you to leave this place.
Hearing Halvard Riseos’ face turned grim as did Trigus. He then sighed and smirked.
Riseos: I guess, I’ll have to use this.
Riseos then pulls out a crystal with peculiar black markings as Trigus was gloomy.
Trigus: To push us and call Lady Void… hahh…
Riseos: Well this is goodbye. Hahahahah!!!
Riseos then used a crystal as another portal appeared but it felt like it was different from his usual portal which was made with darkness, this one seems to be made out of… the rare void element!!
As Halvard, rushed to deal the final blow, Cellux stops him.
Cellux: Stop, I feel that I remember that spell; if you go near it then I am afraid that it will suck out your mana and divinity. Only those chosen to enter it can do so.
Halvard was speechless as he clenches his fist so hard that it became pale as he gritted his teeth. He remembered his father and decided to calm down. He knows that there will be another chance to fight but for now they are the victors.
