Azaroth soon clashed against the beasts who had sowhat prepared themselves to kill this speeding being.
With a tight hold over his sword, Azaroth swung it with a quick speed and slashed the beasts in his way.
The speed and the power at which Azaroth moved his arm was as if he was unstoppable. However, as Azaroth swung that sword around at that high speed, the skin on his arm tore at an unbelievable rate.
Azaroth didn't falter though, he knew that stopping at this mont ant nothing less than death.
These beasts would tear him apart.
Because of his speed, Azaroth managed to blitz past many of these beasts, so he didn't need to fight them at all.
He was pretty fortunate since so of the beasts were quite strong, and if his speed was slow, he would have needed a bit of ti to slay them.
The beasts were hardly able to react to his movents before his sword moved and killed them.
In just 5-6 seconds, Azaroth passed that entire line of beasts that were in his way.
After getting past those beasts, Azaroth started slowing down. It was because he knew that he was getting closer to the barrier.
He couldn't risk hitting himself against the barrier. Better would be to wait for Sophie to open up the barrier again and then get in.
Azaroth's speed decreased rapidly, and soon, he was walking on the ground. In front of them, he saw a horde of beasts attacking the barrier, paying not much attention to the consequences.
Currently, the distance between Azaroth and the barrier was that of 5 miles or so.
With his impressive vision, Azaroth saw Aiden and his group of students resting within the barrier.
All had an ashen look over their faces, and it made Azaroth wonder just what happened.
When Azaroth counted the number of Aiden's students, he understood that one of them was missing.
It was that boy nad Cillian. Azaroth looked around and tried to find him, but there were no signs of his body.
'Looks like he has turned into Beast Food already.' Azaroth calmly analyzed the situation.
He didn't care much about the death of this child.
Azaroth stared at Aiden and thought 'What a weak resolve this man has. Since he dared to bring his disciples to this Beast Raid, he should have been prepared for the consequences. Getting depressed at such a mont won't help his other students or himself.'
After so monts, Azaroth saw that the barrier was opening up once again.
"Good." He whispered as Azaroth crouched down and then jumped.
As soon as he jumped, he used the Phantom Flash to increase his acceleration to the limit.
Once his speed had reached the limit, Azaroth went like a bullet above the beasts, Aiden, his disciples, and the other warriors.
Azaroth had surrounded himself with a blinding light that prevented anyone from recognizing him.
It would be pretty suspicious if they saw him coming from the direction of the beasts.
Aiden did see a flash pass by from above his head, but he couldn't gauge that thing's figure. And before he could warn others, he noted that one of his disciples was in grave danger and required assistance.
anwhile, after Azaroth's body had entered the barrier, he imdiately stopped using the Phantom Flash and waited for his body to slow down so that he could stop.
Currently, he was coming down towards the ground in a parabolic motion.
Soon, his feet touched the ground. However, his montum was so great that it still forced his body forward.
Azaroth, though, didn't plan on moving his body one bit. He applied intense pressure using a lot of his Ardor vertically downwards!
This was his idea to stop his body. And it was working…
However, the ground beneath him had started to crack because of the pressure. The crack continued to get bigger as the ground absorbed all of Azaroth's montum.
"Phew…" Azaroth let out a breath of relief as his body had finally stopped.
The Phantom Flash really had two significant disadvantages. Firstly, the strain it placed on his body was just too much.
Secondly, it was pretty troubleso for Azaroth to halt his montum.
Azaroth deactivated his Demon Transformation Technique since he didn't need it now.
His blue hair felt the gentle breeze as Azaroth remained at that spot for a few minutes.
"Alright, ti to move."
Azaroth turned his direction to the center of the encampnt. aning, he was going towards Sophie's current location…
As for Sophie, she believed that Azaroth was still at the northern outpost of the encampnt, fighting against the beasts.
Currently, the center of the camp where Sophie was residing only had 10 warriors. And 6 of them were Sophie's personal guards, so it could be said that all the reinforcents had been used up.
Soon, Azaroth stepped into the camp center.
Not a single one of Sophie's guards stopped Azaroth as they had seen that their miss was fond of this man.
Azaroth slowly went into the building where Sophie was seated while holding that Blue Crystal Sphere that controlled the three gigantic arrays.
Sophie heard Azaroth's footsteps and raised her head in his direction.
She was struggling to control her smile and maintain a calm expression, but she failed miserably.
Before Sophie could ask anything, Azaroth spoke, "The situation at the Northern Outpost is more or less stable now. I thought it would be better to return and help you in controlling the formation since you have probably exhausted yourself completely."
"I see…" Sophie spoke with a calm look and a smile on her face.
Azaroth went forward and touched the Blue Crystal Sphere, "Now, give it to and take so rest."
"…Alright." From her tone, it was clear that Sophie was quite reluctant about taking a rest, but as she looked into Azaroth's eyes, she felt as if she had no choice but to do so.
Once Sophie had fallen on the ground, Azaroth looked towards his left and spoke, "Can one of you take her to bed? She must be quite exhausted right now."
A man appeared in the room soundlessly. He picked up Sophie and took her to a room with a bed in the sa building.
Azaroth had a smile as Sophie, and 3 of her guards left the area.
Now, only 3 guards remained here who kept an eye on Azaroth.
Azaroth used his Mystic Eyes of Perception to take note of the exact positions where these three guards were hiding.
'Killing them and revealing myself right now wouldn't be wise. They can be good shields.' Azaroth grinned as he thought in this direction.
For so ti, he did just as Sophie was doing. Closing the barrier for the warriors to take so rest and then opening it to let them fight against the beasts.
Azaroth had taken control of these arrays because now, the beasts' final attack was about to arrive.
According to his calculations, they should arrive in nearly 15 minutes or so…
However, Azaroth didn't know from which direction they would attack.
If it was a human, he could say that a human would analyze the formation and choose to attack the array at its weak point. But for a beast… It was all a random guess.
They trusted their instincts more than their intelligence.
Azaroth sat on a chair and relaxed his body. Unlike Sophie, he didn't feel much pressure as he controlled the array. He hardly cared about soone's life other than his own.
After nearly 20 minutes, the beasts were led by the Three-Eyed White Wolf, who was rather angry.
It was because a human had successfully run away with the Abyssal Hound's body right under his nose. This was extrely humiliating for him…
And the warriors in the encampnt were now going to experience this rage first hand.
