One more coming after 30m,
--------------
At the sa ti,
Countless Abyssal Demons were attacking from all directions! Many of them even burst out from the ground, directly breaking the alliance’s defensive and offensive formation, instantly defeating the entire allied forces.
To add insult to injury;
After being attacked by Abyssal Demons, cases of infection by the Shadow energy quickly appeared within the allied forces. The internal soldiers began to demonize. Even though the alliance was still in a deadly struggle with Abyssal Demons, the internal collapse had already caused this unit to lose its combat capabilities.
Being defeated by the Demons, they were retreating at every step.
The young Kael wanted to use his strongest skill to turn the tide.
Unfortunately, at that ti, he was still too young.
He intended to join forces with the other two Heavenly Apostles to defeat Inferno. However, he soon realized the cruelty of the world under the powerful attack of Demon King of Flas.
The Heavenly Apostles, who are powerful and awe-inspiring in the eyes of the world, were not able to defeat even one Demon king even with the three of them combined. After the last direct confrontation, they were swallowed up by Inferno’s sea of fire, losing their combat capabilities.
If it weren’t for his companion helping him to offset most of the damage with a powerful defense, Kael, who ignored defense, would have certainly died in the vortex of flas.
As an Apostle who was least injured and could still stand up, Kael was grasped tightly by Inferno’s claw made of flas the mont he stood up. No matter how he tried to move his Holy Energy, it was of no avail.
After realizing that he couldn’t break free with his physical strength, Kael began to mobilize his Holy Energy throughout his body, trying to erode Inferno’s spirit.
Unfortunately,
Due to physical exhaustion,
And the pain brought by burning, Kael couldn’t complete the spiritual erosion against a Demon king existence. At this mont, the young man felt even more desperate. In his dark red eyes, it seed that he had already seen the underworld ssenger waving to him on the banks of the Sunzu River.
However,
Just then, a clear and pleasing voice suddenly entered the young Kael’s mind,
-"That’s all? You aim to harm Mother? You’re making fun of yourself! Hmph!"-
Even on the verge of death, this sudden complaining voice from the girl still shocked Kael. He looked incredulously at the hateful Demon King of Flas wrapped in fire in front of him.
’Is this Inferno’s voice?!’
Kael’s eyes were trembling.
Although he failed to complete the spiritual erosion against Inferno, it seed that the full strength he exerted wasn’t in vain. Combined with the fact that Inferno seed to have beco weak due to the fierce battle with the three Apostles, Kael managed to barely connect to Inferno’s spiritual world.
And after hearing Inferno’s words,
[-"Abyssal Demons are all inconsequential "-]
This young Apostle completely denied this ’common sense’ propagated by the church.
Moreover,
As for why the church wanted to propagate this? Kael was too exhausted to think about it. After hearing Inferno’s inner words, this Apostle even forgot about the imminent death due to shock.
’Inferno... have conscious?’
’And,’
’What does she an by her mother? Who is she?!’
’The voice of a young girl was coming from the inner world of Inferno?’
This indeed astonished Kael, and his dark red eyes beca dull with shock.
He had thought of the Demon kings as a being without wisdom, but after connecting with her spiritually, she suddenly expressed rational words, which really made Kael feel as if his worldview was being challenged.
However,
More than the implausible fact that Inferno possessed reason,
What really intrigued Kael was the ’Mother’ the girl ntioned in her speech.
’Mother? The mother of Abyssal Demons?! Who... what could that be? Could it be the legendary Demon Lord?!’
Kael, who was still a very young Heavenly Apostle at that ti, was engulfed by a tsunami of doubt, confusion, and disbelief.
However,
At this mont, he lacked the strength to ponder this mystery.
Due to the burn of the inferno’s fire, the Holy Energy within him was being depleted rapidly, leaving him unable to resist the heat waves radiating from the Demon king of Flas. Suffocating under the fiery demon’s claw, Kael’s consciousness was rapidly fading, pushing him to the brink of unconsciousness.
Now he could only instinctively struggle a few more tis,
Unfortunately,
His struggle couldn’t harm Inferno, let alone break free from the fiery demon’s grip.
Kael’s heart seed to fall into despair, closing his eyes helplessly, ready to wait for the arrival of death.
However,
Just when Kael felt hopeless, an unexpected girl’s voice suddenly invaded Inferno’s mind, and through the weak spiritual link, slowly transmitted to Kael,
-"Little Na, be careful, don’t overdo it."-
The girl’s voice, lodious like a serene spring, was soothing, yet it imposed on Kale an unparalleled The feeling of being overwheld. A feeling potent enough to rip his soul apart. Despite his overwhelming weakness, Kael couldn’t help but shudder instinctively.
’What... Who is this?’
Kael couldn’t help asking himself,
But after voicing this question, both his body and will had reached their limits. A vast darkness encompassed his heart from every direction.
Kael’s consciousness sank entirely into an endless abyss...
Just before he lost consciousness, the young Apostle sensed,
The fiery grip that had been tightly clenching his neck was, astonishingly, slowly easing...
...
This was Kael’s last experience in Winter Forest. But when Kael awoke once again, the young Apostle found himself back in the main Cathedral of the Holy City of the Church. At that mont, he learned of a heartbreaking but unsurprising fact,
That was, the allied forces were completely defeated, and the plan to expel the Abyssal Demons was a total failure.
What shocked Kael the most was the condition of him and the other two Heavenly Apostles.
Although they were seriously injured and unconscious until now, not one of them died in Winter Forest.
Rembering his battle with Inferno in Winter Forest, Kael still couldn’t believe that he could return alive from that battlefield. Inferno’s thorough killing intent toward them, the three Apostles of Heaven, made Kael still have lingering fears even now.
