Max saw this system notification and had a sly grin on his face.
Not only did his brother play the queen perfectly, but he also helped Max greatly benefit from the situation.
He was truly the best brother ever!
” D-did your brother just randomly give me a Divine Astra like it’s nothing? ” Sebastian asked dreamily as he still couldn’t believe that after all the insults that he had hurled at Shakuni, the other party did not kill him but rather gave him a gift.
His question jolted Max back to reality as he realised that although his brother was gone, there were still a lot of things he needed to handle in the aftermath of this epic battle.
As he skidded down towards the area where his brother had thrown the Indra-Astra and Lucifer’s sword, he saw Regus Aurelius looking at him with scrutiny as he had a visible frown on his face.
Before Max could pick up the sword, Regus picked it up from the ground and examined it carefully as only after he was satisfied did he pass it to Max as he said ” This blade is going to be forever tainted with darkness energy.
I don’t know why your brother chose to give it to you, but you should be careful using it ” 𝗯𝐞𝗱𝗻𝐨𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝗼𝗿𝐠
ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm Max gracefully accepted the weapon from Regus as he understood that at this moment Regus had not realised that he and Ravan Bloodfall were one and the same and was under the impression that he was the human Max Rajput.
[ Divine Blade Azrael ] – A blade tainted by the dark powers of the seed of darkness which was formerly owned by the fallen angel Lucifer.
Caution : It’s extremely dangerous and can influence the psyche of its wielder.
Special powers :-

? + Special move [ Darkness Slash ]
Max inspected the blade and was very impressed with its specs.
Apart from being an easily recognisable blade that would spook any opponent he faced just from the recognition of being Lucifer’s blade, the blade also had a darkness element to it which made it a perfect weapon for his use.
Undoubtedly being vastly superior to his current Goldman’s sword, this blade could be the one he could carry in his journey as a warrior from here till the very peak of tier8.
Swinging it around, Max felt the blade to be perfectly balanced in his hands, perhaps because of the self balancing feature as despite it came with a caution warning, Max decided to adopt it as his main blade going forward.
‘ Thankyou, brother… ‘ Max thought in his head as he stored the sword in his inventory.
Witnessing his brother back in action today Max couldn’t help but feel like a kid all over again.
From start to end, his brother had barely fought for few minutes total, however, in those few minutes he had changed the whole complexion of the war by killing Lucifer and two other monarchs as if they were flies.
Max got shivers all over his body just thinking about the fact that his brother, if he was given a free reign, could have maybe decided the entire dimensional war in a single day.
He had reached a level where the only challenge he had in the universe was the one governing the universe herself, the universal queen.
As amongst the monarchs there was not a single one who could even kiss his feet.
Without a shadow of a doubt, in the entire universe, his brother was the strongest warrior of them all and his might was currently unrivalled.
Although he personally could brood in these thoughts all day, his thoughts were interrupted by King Regus who asked an extremely difficult question of him.
” Where is your Lord? I wish to have a conversation with Ravan. Also either one of you need to go and destroy the enemy disc while we still have time ” Regus said as he keenly eyed the Indra-Astra that Sebastian was fiddling with, as although he did covet Lucifer’s sword as he already had an equally good one of his own, the Indra-Astra was a completely different ballgame.
Had Sebastian not been an underling of a vampire clan, Regus would have shamelessly looted him by now, however, because he was, he wished to do it more subtly by buying it via Ravan Bloodfall.
While he was on a different line of thought, the simple question he had asked posed a significant difficulty for Max, as he no longer truly had the answer as to where Ravan Bloodfall was…..
**********
( Meanwhile the Elites )
Thanks to Max stalling the demons, by the time the demon and defected werewolf forces reached the vampire disc they found themselves facing off against a well set-up True Elites camp as well as being backstabbed by the retreating vampire forces who fought with a vengeance after facing the shame of retreating.
As of now, nobody knew as to what exactly had transpired on the other side of the battlefield, as witnesses of the event were far and few.
However, pincered between the elites and the vampires, the demon and werewolf forces had a really hard time holding their lines as they were slaughtered from all directions.
Through the heroics of the Rajput brothers, the tide of the Dimensional war had changed significantly and was now fully in the favour of the light faction.
As soon news was about to spread about what exactly transpired in the valley where Max had made his stand as well as how Shakuni was back, stronger than ever.
Both pieces of news were sure to rattle the entire universe, as nothing was going to be the same ever again.
