Haemosu’s Dawn, dozens of afterimages were created as it swept across Bernard’s entire body. Furthermore, the Dawn also emitted a black energy like Moonlight. Because of that, the attack was more troublesome and annoying than just being slashed.
“You’re really tough.”
Bernard’s black exoskeleton didn’t even get a scratch despite Haemosu’s attacks. Furthermore, since he even wrapped his exoskeleton with Guarding Aura, Haemosu’s attacks were even more futile.
Just when Haemosu’s attacks were gradually slowing down! Bernard quickly struck out and swung his claws, which were wrapped in Aura Blade.
Shuaaak!
Kwaaajajak
Haemosu hurriedly raised his Guarding Aura, but Bernard’s claws tore through Haemosu’s Guarding Aura. The claws were made of the same material as the exoskeleton, so they were very hard and sharp, which was why the Guarding Aura was torn apart.
“Phew. . . . . . ”
Fortunately, he quickly moved his body, or else his skin would have been torn apart as well.
“Your body has become a lot slower, Haemosu.”
“Why don’t you sleep for a long time like me?”
At those words, Bernard charged at Haemosu once again. However, there were others who attacked Bernard before he could do so: Gilgamesh, who had become a Spirit Master, and Ornstein, who was also a Spirit Master.
Several Mind Swords and Mind Spears fired by the two pierced Bernard’s entire body, momentarily stopping his movements. Seizing that opportunity, Haemosu’s sword swung and unleashed a storm of black energy.
“We will assist you.”
“It’s embarrassing. . . but I will gratefully accept your help.”
As Gilgamesh and Ornstein joined forces, Bernard began to be pushed back. Furthermore, those three were not the only ones targeting Bernard.
“You haven’t forgotten about me, have you?”
Hwarurruk!
A man emitting green flames attacked Bernard. It was Leto Zagreaus, the champion of Pluto.
Leto then also spread out his Mind Sword and pressured Bernard. There were two Spirit Masters, one champion as strong as a Spirit Master, and one demigod of the same level as Bernard.
From Bernard’s point of view, it was a very disadvantageous and deadly situation. However, Bernard did not express any dissatisfaction. He looked as if it was natural to fight like this.
Pajijijik!
On the other hand, Duke Valtr, the Demon Duke, was facing Minos, the champion of Jupiter; Hippolyte, the champion of Minerva; Agenor, the champion of Neptune; and Talisa, the champion of Gaia and a member of the Chaos Defense Bureau.
Despite controlling hundreds of black snakes on his own, Duke Valtr was facing the champions and even showed that he was not being pushed back in close combat. In addition, the lesser noble-class demons were being dealt with by the Dark Brotherhood and the remaining superhumans.
Meanwhile, Morgul, the Lord of Morgen and the Sorcerer King, was facing another of the Four Heavenly Kings of Greed. He was originally supposed to go somewhere else, but it seemed that the lineup on this front was so great that he had no choice but to come here.
“Radan. . . . . . ”
【Morgul. . . . . . 】
“How did it come to this?”
【I just didn’t go against the tide and just went along with it. 】
“The tide. . . . . . ”
【If Mammon becomes an evil god, I will also be able to become stronger than I am now. 】
“Was your goal just strength?”
【Just strength. . . . . . Isn’t that too strong of a word? I was just envious of those who transcended multiple worlds and repeated destruction and slaughter, not just in this world. 】
“Well. . . Radan, you were called a demonic dragon even before you became an evil dragon.”
【This is the destiny I must follow. 】
“I will destroy that destiny.”
Morgul, who held Giant Slayer in one hand, climbed onto the head of the Lich Dragon, Lamina Vindictae.
“Let’s go, Lamina.”
【Krrrrrr! I will punish the betrayer of the clan! 】
The giant Elder Lich Dragon Lamina rushed towards Radan, and Radan also transformed into his dragon form and faced Lamina, who was rushing towards him.
Kwang!
The two giants clashed in midair, emitting a roar. Radan, an evil dragon with three pairs of wings and two pairs of arms, pressured Lamina as he emitted blue lightning from his entire body.
Pajijijik! Pajijijik!
Since the lightning was imbued with demonic power, Lamina had no choice but to deploy a shield spell to resist. Meanwhile, Morgul, who was on Lamina’s head, began to cast a spell.
“Miracle Strike!”
Thousands of magic circles of various colors were formed in a semicircle centered on Radan. Various magics were emitted from there and pounded on Radan. Lamina then spun her body violently and used her tail to push Radan away before stepping back and concentrating her magic power in her snout.
A surge of enormous magic power. . . At the same time, a frost breath poured out of Lamina’s mouth and covered Radan’s entire body.
Kwakwakwakwa!
The various magics and frost breath emitted a tremendous amount of steam, which briefly enveloped Radan’s entire body.
It would be nice to be able to end it here, but both Morgul and Lamina knew that Radan would not be defeated by this level of attack.
Pajijijik!
