Will of chaos

When I saw the Priests from earlier arrive on the battlefield and the type of spells they were using I understood what Guildmaster Dargon was wanting to accomplish.

He wanted to try to break the curses on the Souls of these monsters preventing them from going back to the Dungeon, that way the fight became easier with less deaths every day since the monsters won’t be able to work together like they have done until now.

But there was a certain problem with what the Priests were doing, and because of that, I went to Hela and Lilith who were fighting using their curse skills a lot.

“(You have to go to Hela, help her.)” (I)

“(I’m coming.)” (Orion)

I saw Hela surrounded by monsters, but she didn’t seem to be panicking, so I sent only Orion to help her, but Lilith was in a sticky situation when the blades of black blood around her turned red while purple smoke came out of them.

“< Blood Claws >” (I)

I create crystallized blood claws while using a skill that increases the damage of this attack, with that I almost managed to tear off half of the back of the body of what appeared to be a Man with a bird’s head, wings on his back, and two arms holding swords.

But he recovers from my attack as fast as I could recover by drinking blood, then I notice a current of air from all directions being sucked into him, he was absorbing the air in the surroundings to recover.

“I see…” (I)

Lilith was using curse on her blood blades to bypass their regeneration abilities, but with these Priests using those AoE spells it’s going to be hard to do anything.

“Let me handle this one.” (I)

When I turn around I see Lilith run towards another monster as she waves goodbye to me with her hand.

“Good luck, Dad.” (Lilith)

“Die.”

I’m surprised when I hear the voice come out of the monster’s mouth, but I don’t forget to spin forward and kick the bird-headed monster’s beak.

When I’m upside down I push back with my wings throwing myself into the monster’s chest where I break my blood claws and use my normal claws to pierce its chest while producing various poisons to leave in its body.

Of course, he didn’t stay still and the Bird claws on his legs grabbed me around the waist as one of his wings came down over my head like a blade.

And I use my wings once more generating a strong thrust that takes the monster’s balance allowing me to escape its clutches.

“Poisons from this novel won’t kill me.” 𝙗𝙚𝒅𝒏𝙤𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝒐𝙧𝙜

“So you can really…” (I)

“< Blood Crystallization >” (I)

“I wanted to ask a few questions, too bad.” (I)

When he tried to attack me, I realized that the poisons I used really had little effect, it looked like he was a Ki user, and that’s why his physical capabilities were so strong.

It would have been a long fight if I had done it the conventional way, but he didn’t realize that besides the poisons, I also left something else in his body.

I look at the crystal of blood coming out of his chest, I left some of my blood inside him that I managed to reach his heart where it crystallized full of sharp points destroying his heart.

“Damn it!” (I)

“< Mana Shield > × 30” (I)

I quickly create 30 shields one in front of the other while trying to dodge an attack coming towards me, it seemed to be a large metal sphere full of thin spikes that was launched at high speed, there were several bodies of monsters trapped in the sphere as it came in my direction.

The shields didn’t do much good as it was breaking right away, but it allowed me enough time to get out of the way of this blow.

“Am I the only one trying not to destroy the city?” (I)

During the days of battles in this city, most Adventurers realizing that their attacks can hit other Adventurers by accident have been more conscious in the way they use their skills, spells, and techniques.

But this may not always be possible, especially for the strongest Adventurers where each of their skills are so strong that they have repercussions like shockwaves.

When I felt safe I took the blood of the Harpy I just killed to drink, it helps my recovery more than potions.

———–

For the next few hours, the battle continued, each day more difficult because the Adventurers are accumulating physical and mental fatigue with this routine of relentless combat.

But that day was different, in the middle of the afternoon the big golden ring or ring with 6 pairs of wings that is the gate of this Aerial Dungeon, the monsters stopped coming out, so the 6 pairs of wings of the Dungeon gate started to move like if it was a living being as it flew out of the city at an ever-increasing speed.

In the beginning, there were Adventurers who tried to follow the Dungeon, but in the end, everyone stayed behind just watching the Dungeon disappear into the horizon.

I was holding a Harpy’s wings from behind trying to rip them off her back while the blade of my tail went through the head of another Harpy who tried to attack me from behind only for my tail to go through her head from bottom to top.

Finishing off these two monsters and seeing that monsters of my strength level were already being finished off by other Adventurers leaving only the strongest monsters fighting.

Realizing I wasn’t needed, I stared at the horizon, not understanding why the Dungeon fled.

That’s right, the impression it gave hurts that the Dungeon ran away, this is an inconceivable thing for me to understand and make me think that this Dungeon could be alive as in the case of Nix.

“Wasn’t that a living Dungeon? The feeling was very different from mine, it felt more like a normal Dungeon, that golden ring with wings must be a feature of the Dungeon itself.” (Nix)

“So you think the Dungeon Master has decided to back off?” (I)

“Yes, this has all been for nothing, I don’t see how it helps the Dungeon or the Dungeon Master, with these Priests breaking their curses it only made things worse by making the Dungeon lose important resources.” (Nix)

“I understand.” (I)
