Chapter 810 The Ancient Monster
?”Vorvadoss? What’s that?” Arad swung the plasma chains and flung the two [Ho-white Nova] at Vorvadoss’s face.
Vorvadoss teleported away from the [Ho-white Nova]s and shifted his palm into a bone sword, swinging it down at Arad’s head.
Arad lifted his arm and blocked the attack, “Teleportation?”
Vorvadoss lifted his foot, throwing a kick at Arad’s stomach. But Arad also opened his jaw, spitting a third [Ho-white Nova] at Vorvadoss’s chest.
“Did he say Vorvadoss?” The devil’s face paled, even though he was red. “This is bad! Call back to base! Call back to base! Ignore all protocols, a call to help to Asmodeus, Vorvadoss is back, I’m facing that bastard!”
“Hoi! What are you trying to summon? That’ll break our contract and you’ll die.” Betty yelled at him.
“My death is worth it! We can’t let that thing escape; I’m calling the devil lord of the nine hells.” He stared at Vorvadoss, “You just don’t know what kind of monster that thing is. It’s not something for us to fight.”
Vorvadoss swung his fist at Arad’s face, punching him so hard he took off one of his teeth. Arad clenched a fist and returned the hit, ripping the abomination’s jaw off with a shockwave.
“It’s honestly hard to believe Arad is standing his ground to that thing, but I suspect he’s grown weaker from being sealed for thousands of years. I almost didn’t recognize him; he used to be a ten-meter-tall giant.” The devil clenched his fist, “When he first appeared, he faced the overgod and then got violated by Tiamat, the goddess of the chromatic dragons. She burned him with a whole continent.”
“Ten meters tall? So judging by the side he’s far weaker, a tenth of his power, no, probably more like a fifth. Just like how humans lose muscle mass and get weaker when staying in a coma for a long time, he got weaker as well.” Betty clenched a fist, “We’ll help Arad keep him pinned until the armies of hell come dragon him away. He’s a sinner, hell won’t let him escape.”
“Got it, but how much do we have?” Tempo took a deep breath with veins emerging on his forehead as he watched Arad exchange hits with Vorvadoss.
But then, the devil’s face changed, “Why!” He cried… “Send troops!”
[Little boy Yorin, don’t panic] Asmodeus’s voice boomed across their heads. Betty and Tempo gasped as it was the first time they heard her.
[Both us and both Tiamat are watching the fight with intrigue. Our help isn’t needed, as the man sitting behind you.] The booming voice faded, and everyone slowly turned back.
Flatail opened his eyes, holding his throbbing head. “What in the timbers did happen?” He looked forward, seeing everyone staring at him, no they were looking behind him.
Flatail slowly looked back with a worried face, and he quickly screamed his lungs out as he spotted six glowing red eyes in the darkness.
Their blood dried and they could feel a jolt strike down their bodies, every bone and muscle told them not to move. The darkness gushing from the shadows became clear in the blink of an eye, a beautiful man with a thin beard and long hair tied into a ponytail sat on the ground, looking forward with a passive face.
In his left palm, he held a slightly unsheathed blade, ready to stand and strike. “A wild dog infiltrated my friend’s garden. Nature is durable, but if it doesn’t eliminate the threat, I would sadly have to act.” An absolute demon, Kayden the god slayer stared at Vorvadoss and Arad fight.
Vorvadoss lifted his hand as he blocked one of Arad’s [Ho-white Nova]. He immediately started teleporting around Arad and threw punches, all of which Arad blocked with the chains and his arms.
“You’re one annoying bastard.” Vorvadoss growled, “I know I’m far weaker, but for you to be casually deflecting my attacks. Who taught you how to fight?”
[Void Step] Arad started teleporting everywhere just like Vorvadoss. He quickly freed his left hand and swung it at Vorvadoss. SLAP!
Vorvadoss recoiled back from the slap and could see that Arad’s moves had changed. “Close range now?” He flew back, “Try to hit me now!”
Arad’s stance changed again, shifting from Dalla to someone else, he pulled Aella’s steel bow and took a deep breath, firing an arrow with a [Ho-white Nova] Attacked to the tip.
Vorvadoss dodged the arrow with ease, but Arad teleported above him in an instant and threw a drop kick.
Vorvadoss blocked the kick and spun in place, his legs crackling as he sent a kick at Arad’s shoulder. Upon impact, Arad’s shoulder upper torso spun and he got ripped in half at the waist from the sheer force. The abomination’s strength was rising.
Arad’s body immediately healed, and he landed behind the abomination, his legs cracking as his eyes glowed purple. Vorvadoss gasped as Arad kicked him in the shoulder and ripped him at the waist in the same way.
“My kick! When did you learn it…” He coughed blood as he regenerated, but Arad immediately punched him to the ground.
Vorvadoss teleported away and breathed a gust of green flames, which Arad dodged by teleporting to the cavern walls. The muscles on his legs expanded as he tried to force more of his draconic power into his humanoid half-dragon body, he can’t fully transform as that would only make him a bigger and easier target, and it’s not worth it.
Arad jumped toward Vorvadoss, shattering the walls. Tempo and the devil did the same thing, rushing the abomination to keep him in place. Betty on the other hand released her expansion to charge a sealing spell. That seems to be the only path to victory.
[$%”￡$”￡$%^^&] Vorvadoss lifted his hand, glaring at them with a smirk. In the blink of an eye, everyone found themselves standing on a silver land extending to the horizon with no end in sight.
Tempo fell on his knees before everyone, his skin turning red and his veins bulged out as he was forced back into his true Titan form. But even with that, his conciseness started rapidly fading as he could feel his heart failing to beat. Loud gargles echoed in his ears and his muscles started twitching, something was really off about this place.
^GAH!^ The devil tried to pant, but there was no air around, his skin started falling apart but he still stood first, for a creature used to the hellish scape of the nine hells, this environment was still painful but not enough to keep him down.
Betty had immediately protected herself and the Flatail who had been pulled with them with a barrier, but even that didn’t seem to be lasting for long.
^Welcome to the outer void, we’re outside your world and existence. This is where we abominations come from.^ Vorvadoss walked toward them with a smile, ^No creature of the inner world can survive here.^ His words boomed into their heads.
With his victory looming in the distance, Vorvadoss stared at them with an evil grin, but that didn’t last long as he saw Arad walking toward him unharmed and with a clenched fist.
^You can move?^
Arad punched Vorvadoss again, ^I’m a void dragon you fool.^
^No, even void dragons shouldn’t survive here, this isn’t the world’s void. It’s the outer void.^
Betty stared at her hands, realizing that they couldn’t stay here for long. To solve that, she shifted all of her focus into an old spell, [Homeward], and created a grape-sized red gem of pure magic.
With all of her remaining magic condensed into the gem, shattering it would teleport them everyone back into the cavern, but the one who broke the crystal would remain. It could also be changed to teleport the one who breaks it and leaves everyone else; it’s all in the hands of whoever holds it.
^Now, it’s your end.^ She glared at Vorvadoss, hoping he would attack her and teleport them back which would leave him alone.
Vorvadoss smiled and flew at her, conjuring a blade of green flames and swinging it at her head.
ZON! Arad teleported between her and him, catching the blade with his hands, ^You aren’t killing her.^ He didn’t know of Betty’s plan.
^Fool,^
The blade turned black and flew righting between Arad’s hands, slashing him clean in half from head to groin. ^Soul splitting Blade. It cuts the soul and body in half and separates them, this can even kill the gods, and you aren’t regenerating from it.^
Arad fell on the ground, bleeding without moving an inch; his soul had started disintegrating after being cut in half. Doma scrambled to stitch it together, but doing that was too much work and it disintegrated faster than she could fix, a losing battle.
Betty swung the crystal at Vorvadoss to break it, but he kicked her in the face and sent her flying. ^It’s your loss. This dragon Arad is dead, and soon all of you will. A young titan with mortal powers, a devil of the third layer, one of the weakest and you are a mere wizard. To the upper echelon of the world, you’re nothing but mere bugs crawling on the ground.^
Tens of Vorvadoss clones appeared and surrounded everyone.
^This is where your fate ends.^ Vorvadoss lifted his arms as hundreds of meteors appeared in the sky falling while engulfed in bright green flames.
