Chapter 154: Welcome party
Chapter 154: Welcome party
Fifteen Soul Forging existences belonging to the Heavenly race were flying to the nearest magic tower, and they were not containing their power nor the killing intent in their hearts.
Due to the tower being constructed in secrecy and every single individual in the area near it was either killed or captured, the Dukes of the Heavenly race had no idea of what was happening in the south of the continent.
It was only when an immense amount of natural energy was swallowed by the towers and a force field stretching for hundreds of thousands of kilometers appeared that they were able to realize that the enemy in the shadow had made their move.
The Rank 4 individuals of the Heavenly race had been guarding the Heavenly Guard day and night, focusing on healing their wounds from the fight against the horde, but when the Dukes felt the changes in the continent, they acted immediately and Martin along with another fourteen Soul Forging existences move out.
Oliver and the others at Rank 4 remained to keep guard since they could not leave and let those demons find a way to escape due to their absence. If that were to happen, by the time they hunt down and kill all of them. this world would become a graveyard.
Martin was at the head of the group and from his body, a nebula was released covering the other fourteen Rank 4 individuals.
The nebula seemed to allow them to blend with space itself, increasing their speed to an unbelievable level. Thanks to it, the fifteen of them were able to cover the massive distance between the center of the continent to the tower in less than an hour.
They stopped four thousand kilometers away from the tower, right outside of the periphery of the force field, and they could see the people hiding thanks to their consciousness.
Of course, once their consciousness passed through the force field, it was severely weakened and it lost most of its long-distance offensive capabilities, but still allowed them to see.
The rage and killing intent in Martin was immense at this instant. This was the force that had opened a door to the Abyss, allowing hundreds of thousands of demons to enter the world, killing millions of their people.
Despite his feelings, Martin did not lose his mind and acted recklessly. He focused on the tower and the people inside it, and after a moment, he was able to find out their origin.
“Magi!”
There was an immense disgust on Martin’s face as he said those words.
The Heavenly race was extremely xenophobic, and they considered all other races as inferior, but the ones they loathed the most were those weak races, like humans, that through hard work and constant struggles were able to become stronger.
In their minds, the status quo must always remain the same. If you are born in a weak race, with a weak body and a weak soul, you must remain like that forever, and never defy your place in the universe.
So for them, the Magi World, a world of humans that through the use of magic and technology, that was able to carve a bloody path in the universe and become one of the Principal Worlds in existence was an abomination.
Unfortunately for them, the Rank 9 of the Magi World was incredibly powerful, and not even the leader of the Heavenly Creator World was willing to fight against him in his domain.
All of a sudden, Martin’s eyes widened due to the shock as he analyzed the wings on the individuals inside the tower, and in the next moment, he looked at the distance where the tower filled with the members of the Daybreak clan was.
He was able to figure out the origin of the wings in one of those Magi, and although due to the immense distance he could not analyze the wings on the Daybreak clan, he knew they were alike.
“FILTHY BEASTS!!!”
The energy inside Martin exploded, and an aura filled with hatred and killing intent was released from his body, carrying so much power that the ground under him started to break and earthquakes appeared and extended for thousands of meters.
“You dare to remove the wings of our glorious people and then implant them on your disgusting bodies. I will personally extract your souls and make all of you suffer forever! I will make the most terrifying curse kill all of your loved ones!”
When the rest of the members of the Heavenly race heard Martin’s words, they were surprised and immediately focused their consciousness on the wings of the man hiding in the tower.
When they detected that it was indeed the wings of a Heavenly race member, their response was not any different from Martin, pure hatred.
To them, someone using the wings of their race was no different than using their faces as masks.
The rage and killing intent in Martin’s heart was so much that he released his Law Avatar, making a black nebula filled with starlight appear behind him.
This moment the Duke wanted nothing more than to enter the force field, break that magic tower, rip the wings on the back of that Magus and search his soul for the identity of the person that dared to profane the body of his people.
But after a moment he breathed deeply, deactivated his Law Avatar, and made his power recede. As someone who had reached Rak 4, his soul was extremely powerful, as was the control over his emotions.
He knew that entering the force field would be extremely dangerous and before he could even destroy that tower, the Soul Forging existences of the Magi World would attack him and there will be zero chances of him winning.
“Listen up you hairless monkeys! I will find the one responsible for desecrating the body of our holy people, I will make him feel the most horrible pain that exists and taste the greatest humiliations that he could…” There was great wickedness in Martin’s face as he spoke, but before he could finish, another voice was heard.
“You speak too much!”
Along with those words, what could only be described as an ocean of killing intent assaulted the members of the Heavenly race.
For an instant, Martin and the other fourteen Soul Forging existences felt their eyes clouded by a monstrous red aura and the next thing they saw was a fifteen meters tall man with silver hair and red eyes standing in front of them.
He was wearing black armor and had a crystal sword blade in his hand that was going to pierce Martin’s chest.
The Duke understood instantly what was happening and the danger he was in. But the shock was still immense and he could not believe that the enemy had someone so powerful on their side.
Despite everything, Martin was an experienced warrior and knew what needed to be done. Just like Tomas, the man in front of him had obtained his immense power by fusing with his Law Avatar so they needed to put some distance between them and with the fifteen working together they will be more than able to stop him long enough so the world will expel him to the void.
The rest of the Heavenly race members thought the same, so they activated their Law Avatar and prepared to defend.
Martin was able to make his black nebula appear, and he disappeared before the sword blade reached him.
But when Heinz saw this, a smile appeared on his face and he continued with his sword attack.
“You think you can escape from me!”
The power in his sword increased as the Law of Space filled it, and it seems to penetrate into another dimension since half of it disappeared.
Just like a window, space started to crack and after a moment the missing part of the sword appeared, but this time it was buried inside Martin’s chest.
The Duke could not believe what he was seeing, but before he could even think about discarding his body and trying to escape, a wave of sharp killing intent assaulted his soul, leaving him unconscious before covering his body in a red cocoon.
Heinz did not lose time, and he threw the cocoon inside the force field before launching his strongest attack against the other fourteen Rank 4.
“One blood sword to kill all existence!“
He channeled all of his power, creating fourteen beams of red sword-light that assaulted the members of the Heavenly race.
Felling the threat of those attacks, the Soul Forging existences of the Heavenly race were able to overcome the shock of seeing their leader pierced by a sword and used their Law Avatars to defend themselves.
Each one of them was very powerful, thanks to their bloodline and racial heritage. So since the power in Heinz’s attack was divided into fourteen, they were able to resist, but even so, they were not able to stop the deadly energy from affecting their body and making their old wounds worse.
Heinz was not surprised by this and while the world was expelling him to the void, he directed what little power he had to his fist and threw a punch to his left, breaking space and creating a portal.
“Say hello to the welcome party!” Heinz started to laugh after saying those words, and an immense power threw his body outside the world.
The members of the Heavenly race did not have time to stabilize their condition before seeing how nine Soul Forging existences came out from the portal, all looking at them, like wolves looking at sheep.
