400 Chapter 399: A big success.
“Hey! What are you doing in the middle of the street?! It’s dangerous out here! You need to leav-” An Awakener was shouting, but he didn’t finish his sentence because it was Mykel. “Y-you’re Mykel Alester, right?” He asked as he walked toward Mykel to make sure he wasn’t mistaken for Mykel with someone else.
He wasn’t paying attention to what was happening on his right where Agnez and Jeanne were exchanging blows at each other. The shockwaves were like strong hurricanes, and normal people could die by getting hit by them.
Suddenly, a stray projectile was flying toward him faster than the speed of sound. He didn’t know it was coming, and Mykel glanced at the projectile that traveled at the guy. Mykel watched as the guy’s body exploded into pieces and scattered around the road and walls.
“You said it yourself that it was dangerous,” Mykel scoffed.
Agnez was quite shocked when she was cornered by Jeanne, and she couldn’t land a single hit on her at all. Jeanne moved so fast that Agnez could barely see her at all, and it annoyed her.
Every time their swords clashed, Agnez realized that Jeanne could kill her in a single slash. Not to mention Jeanne’s sword was sharp and strong enough to cut Demon Lords like butter.
“The poison is running out, Jeanne. Once it wears off, you’re done,” Agnez said as she clashed her sword with Jeanne’s.
“Don’t you worry. I’m trying to adapt to the overwhelming effect of the poison,” Jeanne said as she smirked. “Now, I’m ready to fight,” Jeanne immediately disappeared and cut off Agnez’s left arm and leg in a blink of an eye.
Agnez couldn’t believe how easy for Jeanne to cut off her limbs, but it was useless since she could regenerate her limbs back immediately. She then jumped back to make some distance from Jeanne.
“Jeanne, didn’t I tell you that you should take this seriously?” Agnez asked and she looked so annoyed and angry.
“I could kill you off just now, but I remember if I killed you, your soul will be taken by this sword. I don’t want that because Mykel would be angry,” Jeanne answered. “The sword you’re using is about to break as well, I don’t think this match is fair in many ways,” Jeanne explained.
“Is that so?” Agnez looked at the tattered sword in her hand. “Then, how about my nails?” Agnez asked as she plucked the gemstone from the sword with her nail. “There’s no turning back now,” Agnez said as she crushed the gemstone with her teeth and started chewing it, then swallowing it.
The sword immediately shattered as soon as the gemstone was removed. It was because the magic that modified its sturdiness and sharpness disappeared.
Agnez spread her muscular boneless wings. It was massive and her appearance slowly changed into Mazikeen’s which was enough to tell that Mazikeen had taken Agnez’s body.
“You admitted that you can kill us easily, right? I would love to see you try,” Mazikeen smirked and immediately flew toward Jeanne at full speed.
Jeanne had never fought Mazikeen before, and she realized how powerful Mazikeen was. Mazikeen’s whole body even her wings were like weapons that were ready to crush and cut the enemies. She could move every part of her body as she wishes, and it made her so flexible and at the same time the strongest in terms of brute strength.
“How troublesome,” Jeanne wiped the blood under her nose. “I can’t even get close to her body, even if I cut her wings, they will regenerate immediately,” Jeanne felt the fast heartbeat in her chest, and she could tell when the effect of the poison was about to wear off when her heartbeat started to slow down.
While Jeanne thought of a way to fight Mazikeen, something flew past her from behind and toward Mazikeen. It was Gunnar, and Mazikeen smacked him away from her with her right wing. He hit the debris of the buildings and was buried by them.
“This place is occupied,” Mazikeen said as she stared at someone behind Jeanne.
Jeanne turned around and saw Nefarath standing on top of giant debris. Nefarath was covered in wounds which surprised Jeanne because it would be impossible for Gunnar alone to do all that by himself.
“Are you seriously going to use your real body? We are not supposed to win this. So act like you’re struggling because we are going to retreat before the sun comes out,” Nefarath said.
“Said the one who beaten up Gunnar,” Mazikeen said as she looked at Gunnar who was unconscious.
“He was fine, you slapped him with your wing and he was unconscious because of you, not me,” Nefarath replied. “If you want to settle a score, do it another time,” Nefarath continued and then flew away.
Jeanne dashed forward and started to cut Mazikeen’s wings into pieces. She then side-kicked Mazikeen and knocked her far back.
“I hate it, but since it’s Mykel’s order, we should wrap this thing up because the sun is almost out,” Jeanne said as she swung her sword to get rid of the blood on the blade.
“Let’s make a good show for those people,” Agnez said as she slowly changed her appearance to her disguise. “That’s if you can beat me because I still have Mazikeen’s power running through me,” Agnez smirked and dashed forward.
pA(nD)A no ve1 Mykel looked at the chaos that happened in the city while the Awakeners who survived decided to stay behind him. They believed it was safer to be near him than out there on their own, and they all watched how powerful Rozan, Jeanne, Gunnar, Sven, and Vincze were.
“Are those dragons?” A guy asked as he looked up at the sky, and it looked like a firework because so many colors were produced from the battle between Frigna and Rozan with his dragons.
“I don’t know where to look, they’re all so fucking strong!” Another guy said as he watched Sven cut clean everything within his vicinity with his scythe, and Kiersha let herself get cut and slashed by him. “We are going to be fine,” He continued as he chuckled in disbelief.
Mykel listened to their conversation and suddenly someone stood right next to him. It was Agnez, but not the real Agnez since she was fighting Jeanne at that moment. It was Beldathiel and she was there to make sure that everyone on his team was present.
“I just have to stand here, right? Because I don’t know how to wield a sword, and I don’t want anyone to be suspicious of me,” Beldathiel said as she watched Agnez and Jeanne fighting in the distance. “Anyway, this sword. Where did you get this?” Beldathiel asked.
“I took them from the Empyrean World and asked Lucifer to make a sword from it. That sword is the only thing that can kill a Celestial being,” Mykel answered as he looked at the long sword hanging on Beldathiel’s left waist. “If Celestial beings can be harmed with that sword, Gods, Demons, they won’t be able to withstand it,” Mykel continued.
Beldathiel raised her eyebrows and didn’t dare to touch it.
“Look! The demon got defeated!” A guy said as he pointed at Frigna fell from the sky and hit the ground really hard.
“Over there as well!” The other guy pointed at Nefarath with her broken wings and missing left arm.
Kiersha was stabbed in the chest with Vincze’s spear that he threw from the ground. She fell right next to Agnez and it was a cue for Agnez to start losing the battle.
Everyone was cheering as they held their phones and captured everything. Suddenly, a helicopter came and floated right above Mykel. They all looked up and saw two people jump down and land right behind Mykel. They were Zherlthsh and Vixelleth.
“Yes! Now the demons are fucked!” A guy shouted in excitement.
Jeanne, Gunnar, Rozan, Sven, Vincze, Gerrard, Nagy, and Lillith were gathered with the dragons, wolves, and crows behind them. People were cheering for them, but then suddenly Nephilim came down from the sky with her left red bat wing and black right feather wing.
Those people were staring at her with their eyes and mouths wide open. Suddenly they all fell down to their knees, and couldn’t move a muscle. Nephilim then used the opportunity to teleport Agnez and the others from the scene.
“Wh-where did the demons go?! Who was that?!” A woman asked.
“Everyone! Please help the people to evacuate! We don’t know if those demons are going to come back or not, but this is your chance to leave District Two!” Zherlthsh said loud and clear. “Let the Guild Association deal with the demons, your only purpose now is everyone’s safety!” Zherlthsh continued.
They all looked at each other and then nodded their heads as they hurriedly left to help the people and the wounded. The whole place became quiet and left only Mykel and the others.
“How many have you killed?” Mykel asked Lillith.
“Thanks to the show, I managed to kill more than one hundred unnoticed, and Deviatris is currently gathering them in the hideout,” Lillith answered as she stretched her arms and neck. “She said that she will be busy for the next few days, so she doesn’t want to be bothered in the meantime,” Lillith continued.
Mykel hummed and looked at all the mess.
“The plan is a big success, but this is only the beginning,” Mykel said as he cleared his throat. “But, I’ll take it from here from now on,” Mykel continued.
