Hail the King

"Hahahaha! Surrender! Since you got pulled inside my Sun Anomaly, your fate is set! You are like a piece of meat on the cutting board, and I'm the chef with the knife! All your struggles will be useless and meaningless!" Bishop Senxi of Red-Sand shouted.

As he waved his arms, dashes of thick beams of lights shot down from the sky and struck at Fei, enveloping him in this madness. It looked like the king was being pierced by many giant judgment swords.

The battles between Sun-Cla.s.s Lords were very dangerous and breathtaking. Each of them had the power to destroy the land, and a casual attack from them could change the outcome of a war between ordinary soldiers.

Besides, their unique powers, which were the Sun Anomalies, represented their status and contained incredible abilities.

However, it required perfect timing and position for them to be used.

For example, when two Sun-Cla.s.s Lords were close in power levels, it was tough for one person to drag the other person into his or her Sun Anomaly especially when the latter was prepared.

One could only pull someone into his or her Sun Anomaly when the latter was much weaker or severely injured. For example, Bishop Senxi of Red-Sand only pulled Fei into his Sun Anomaly after that midget severely injured the king, and he couldn't do it before.

However, once someone was sucked into a Sun Anomaly, it would be very dangerous. He or she wouldn't be able to use their own Sun Anomalies unless they defeated their opponents or shattered the Sun Anomalies that they were in.

That was because each Sun Anomaly was a world of its own, and the owner of that world could do anything in it. The battleground would heavily favor the owner since all the laws of nature were overwritten to benefit him or her, and all the laws of nature that the opponents comprehended would be rendered useless temporarily.

What was truly terrifying was that even though the person who got pulled into the Sun Anomaly would be in a disadvantage, every single bit of energy he or her used wouldn't be replenished by the elements in nature. On the other hand, the owner of the Sun Anomaly could have an unlimited supply of energy.

The reason why Fei got pulled into Bishop Senxi of Red-Sand's Sun Anomaly so easily was that he got severely injured by that midget!

After Fei was injured, he got furious and lost concentration for a split second. Even though he showed his weakness for a short time, Bishop Senxi of Red-Sand was able to utilize that mistake!

In a sense, Fei being pulled into the [G.o.ds' Forbidden Land] was a part of Bishop Senxi of Red-Sand's careful planning!

This was the first battle that Fei fought where his opponent was also a Sun-Cla.s.s Lord, and he was taught a huge lesson!

As thick silver light beams shot down from the sky, Fei had to change his positions continuously to dodge and tried to plan a counterstrike. Even though he wasn't being injured further, his situation was getting worse and worse.

In the end, he wasn't able to dodge in time, and he had to take a few of the thick silver light beams head-on. Blood gushed out of the deep wound on his right shoulder non-stop. Right now, his blue robe was almost completely soaked in blood!

Ae time pa.s.sed, Bishop Senxi of Red-Sand who was in the sky became more and more stunned.

The power of the King of Chambord far exceeded his expectations. The king was able to last so long even though powerful light beams were shooting at him, and he didn't even look tired. A lot of his energy was probably already used, but the king wasn't getting slower or weaker.

Like a savage, the king looked brave and heroic as he continued to last in Bishop Senxi of Red-Sand's Sun Anomaly.

Such terrifying endurance!

-Chambord City, on the square-

Everyone just saw a flash of red flames, and a b.l.o.o.d.y-red crack appeared in the s.p.a.ce. Then, Bishop Senxi of Red-Sand and the King of Chambord who were battling in the sky suddenly disappeared into the crack and were nowhere to be seen.

"That is…… Bishop Senxi of Red-Sand's Sun Anomaly?" someone gasped.

The current situation heavily favored one side, and that side was Chambord.

Under the a.s.sistance of the supreme king-level demon beasts in the sky, the masters on the side of Chambord almost killed all the masters of the [Dragon Hunt Alliance]. This night was meant to be a night where blood was spilled, and many traveling poets told this story to other people who weren't here later on.

Unless people saw this scene with their own eyes, they had a hard time believing that powerful and arrogant Moon-Cla.s.s Elites were mowed down like crops under the sickle of a farmer, and their blood stained the ground and dyed the sky into the color red.

In her unique and elegant armor, Valkyrie Elena didn't partic.i.p.ate in the battle.

She was staring at where Fei disappeared from with her beautiful, star-like eyes, and she was a little worried. Although she had never seen so-called Sun Anomalies before, she had heard about their powers.

"Alexander, you have to come out of there alive!"

Elena prayed in her mind, but she didn't look distracted.

Even though that midget who tried to a.s.sa.s.sinate Fei was severely injured, he wasn't killed. He was probably still hiding somewhere around the square, waiting for the next perfect opportunity.

Elena knew how powerful an a.s.sa.s.sin who was close to the realm of Sun-Cla.s.s was. If that a.s.sa.s.sin wanted to, he could kill all the masters on the square one by one easily!

The Valkyrie knew that her responsibility was to make sure that the masters on the side of Chambord weren't killed or severely injured by that midget. If she could, she should find a way to kill that terrifying a.s.sa.s.sin who was hiding in the area before Fei returned.

Fortunately, that a.s.sa.s.sin was severely injured by Fei after the king was enraged.

Elena was glancing around, carefully sensing the energy fluctuations in the area. She didn't find anything strange, and she was a little rea.s.sured.

Just when she was about to relax for a bit, she suddenly detected something. Her face changed color, and she turned into a dash of light as she flew into the sky.

In the sky, Angela was still sitting on [The Throne of Chaos] which was located on Blacky's back, and she was commanding the demon beast legion to kill enemies.

She didn't sense the arrival of danger at all.

People were dying left and right on the ground, and the gushing blood formed many chilling yet beautiful death flowers.

Angela didn't feel good about this; this b.l.o.o.d.y scene made this pure girl feel sad, and this sorrow somehow intensified the pure and holy sensation coming from her.

As the nightly wind fluttered her long black hair, making it look like a black waterfall, she lightly stood up from the throne, and her gorgeous figure with the bright moon in the background created an insane image that looked like it was frozen in time.

"Angela, be careful……" The Valkyrie's angry and shocked warning came from below.

"Huh? What……" Angela didn't know what was happening.

At this moment, Blacky seemed to have noticed something. It roared and fluttered its huge black wings. Like a flash of lightning, it suddenly flew higher into the sky, and a cloud of terrifying orange fire shot out of its mouth and tried to fly away.

However, it seemed too late.

A midget-like figure struck the fire, flew through it quickly, and stepped onto Blacky's gigantic back confidently.

It was the a.s.sa.s.sin who sneak-attacked Fei.

With blood dripping from his lips, his evil and vicious stare landed on Angela, and his ugly face looked twisted.

Cold lights flashed in his hands that were way too large for his body size, and his hands struck at the soft and swan-like neck of Angela.
