Chapter 185: The Earth Elental God’s Death

Translator: imperfectluck Editor: Pranav

The nurous magical markings on the floor lit up, and the fixed tracks, which had been etched into the stone walls by the sword energy, were for its preparation. With the two elental magical items prepared in their respective places, the entire stone cavern beca flooded with light.

After hearing my proposal, Camdian’s first reaction wasn’t of praise or happiness. His eyes, which were flickering with streaks of lightning, stared at with such an obvious panic that I instantly understood.

“Relax, we’re allies. How could I possibly seal you? Besides, I would need God-rank Earth Elental power in order to seal you; where would I get that from?”

Camdian turned to look at his mortal enemy. His aning was obvious; wasn’t Emordilorcan right before us a perfect source? He definitely had God-rank Earth Elental power in him.

“Sealing two Elental Gods at the sa ti? You overestimate . If we had that level of power, we wouldn’t have asked for your help. Do you think that we’d be foolish enough to ask you to seal yourself? How illogical!”

Okay, I tried everything I could and swore on every oath I could think of. After considered the fact that this was a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity for him, Camdian managed to nod and agree in the end. And while I was convincing him, poor Adam was being beaten up by the furious Emordilorcan.

No, it should be said that Emordilorcan was trying to escape, but our primary tank was sticking too close to him—it was as if Adam was a ghost haunting Emordilorcan and annoying him at every step. Since we’d already reached this point, though, how could we possibly let him escape?

And, to be honest, when all the magical markings in this location lit up, he had already lost the ability to escape.

When Camdian, prepared the final key for and gave a transford Thunder Tear with apparent hesitation, a clear sound rang out that was rather uncomfortable to our senses. And as it rang out, the entire space began to transform into a forceful dinsion.

After the three God-rank elental items synchronized with each other, Emordilorcan was trapped in the middle of the triangle formation they ford. His Elental Heart was currently synchronizing with the other three elental items, creating a self-circulating elental pocket dinsion within.

According to the explanation in the ancient scroll, this seal rely borrowed the basic structure of the elental world. For the lives of elentals, their structures were their foundations; it constituted a basic instinct just like breathing. It was completely unavoidable, unstoppable, and even irresistible for them!

That was also why Camdian had been so terrified. If we wanted to take this chance and seal him, it would definitely be possible. Needless to say, extra preparations were never wrong, and I was indeed prepared with a backup plan to seal him as well.

But, of course, there was no need to make him into our enemy now. If it weren’t for his help, we wouldn’t have been able to stall Emordilorcan for such an extended period of ti, but scaring the Wind Elental God would be beneficial for our future cooperation. If he wanted to betray us in the future for so personal benefits, he would, at the very least, consider the potential consequences.

Okay, I digress. All the magical markings were lighting up, and the naturally synchronizing elental forces were creating a self-contained new world of its own. Now that it’s co to this, I felt sowhat sad to lose two God-rank elental items, and I was even more depressed at not having finished my system’s missions—but it was all definitely worth it. At the very least, I was unable to think that Emordilorcan would be able to do anything else anymore.

As for any losses to Camdian? Who cared; he deserved it. It was his own fault for following us.

“Emordilorcan! Such a day has co to you as well; I’ve finally witnessed this day! Allow to watch you be sealed.”

However, judging from Camdian’s jeers, I knew that I had overthought. As long as he could defeat Emordilorcan, no matter what price he paid, it was obvious that Camdian was willing.

It was then, however, that Emordilorcan broke out laughing.

“...You all want to seal ? Dream on! Even if I die, I won’t let you off easily!”

That familiar, furious laughter caused to recall certain existences, such as those gnos that were forced to the limit by city officials, or those gnos who were forced by their debts into not even caring for their lives, or those gnos who liked to gamble money on explosive barrels.

That was why, in the very next instant, I pulled Adam in front of and proceeded to hide behind Camdian’s back.

“You intend to push into the fire again?”

Okay, should I say that he’s already gotten to doing this to him? Even though he was complaining aloud, he didn’t move at all, perfectly fulfilling his duty as a tank.

*Boom!*

Right as Emordilorcan finished speaking, a trendous explosion occurred, caused the entire labyrinth to begin collapsing. The duststorm from the explosion made it difficult to see anything, and the massive wind and stone shards caused Adam to wail in pain!

“I knew you didn’t have any good intentions; always using as your shield!”

Cough, I ignored that guy who always habitually complained as I turned my attention to the Wind Elental God before .

“Is Emordilorcan dead?”

“According to how you mortals would say, his body and soul have both been destroyed, so you could say he is dead. For us Elental Gods, he probably just returned to the Earth Elental Plane. However, for him to have committed suicide by exploding his own physical body would take him at least one or two hundred years to return to his original power. It won’t an anything by then when he finally returns.”

The cackling Camdian transford into humanoid form, with absolute delight plastered on his face at having killed his mortal enemy. It was worth any price since he was now one step closer to being the top of all elentals.

I nodded without saying much else, while I carefully recovered the four God-rank elental items.

Four? Yep, four; apart from the Ocean’s Bottle and the Emblem of Fire, Camdian’s Thunder Tear and Emordilorcan’s gray-colored Earth Elental Heart were also recovered by .

After seeing these God-rank elental items, Camdian seed to want to say sothing, but I shook them at him and pointed to the magical markings on the ground that were beginning to dim. It was obvious what I ant.

‘It’ll be quite easy to use this magical seal again; would you like to try it? Or, do you intend to explode yourself just like Emordilorcan?’

Okay, I could only think that to myself, but judging by how icy Camdian’s expression had turned, it was obvious that he understood my threat.

Traitors could never be trustworthy. If he could betray soone for personal benefits one ti, he could betray another for even greater personal benefits a second ti. From the very start, I had been prepared against Camdian.

“Alright, my lord Camdian, could you please take us out of here?”

Yet sotis, even if you knew, in your heart, that you had a grudge against soone, it was better not to have the relationship sour out in the open. That way, you could still act as allies on the surface. In my past world, didn’t the leaders of each major country, who each had legendary weapons called nukes, still smile and greet each other politely whenever they t each other in person?

“Of course, I’m never stingy towards my allies. Co ride on , my friends.”

And so, Camdian transford into a whirlwind and effortlessly took us out of the labyrinth. Above ground, near the entrance of the labyrinth, we t with Margaret, who had been waiting for us for a long while. She breathed an obvious sigh of relief upon noticing our arrival.

“Milord, Margaret used a teleport spell to help us escape. Unfortunately, she was unable to get a lock on your coordinates, so she was unable to support you. But since you ca out successfully as she said you would, that must an you have achieved victory.”

I nodded as I took out the Earth Elental Heart, producing deafening cheers from the knights. Even if the collapsing earth elental labyrinth could act as evidence for Emordilorcan’s defeat, only actual evidence of his defeat could release the pressure from everyone’s minds.

“Good job. Without you guys closing the Earth Elental Door, we wouldn’t have been able to achieve victory. I shall reward you all after we return.”

However, everyone reacted strangely to my praise. They all glanced at each other awkwardly, as if they had sothing to say, yet nobody spoke up. It was Margaret who ended up explaining.

“It’s not that easy to close an Elental Door. If I wasn’t careful enough, I could have exploded the entire labyrinth or sent us all to a different plane. We just temporarily cut Emordilorcan’s connection to the Elental Door, but that seed to have been enough.”

I was surprised to hear this, but I instantly gave a wry smile.

“Emordilorcan’s death was rather pitiful. If he had remained calr, perhaps he could have seen through us, as not even Camdian could deal with him. Forget it; it’s already over. There’s no need to think too much about it. Then do we need to go down there one more ti to close the Earth Elental Door?”

Margaret smiled as she shook her head.

“That won’t be necessary. The Earth Elental Door was being supplied by Emordilorcan’s divine power, and since he’s dead, it will collapse by itself.”

I nodded and was just about to introduce Camdian to everyone when the Wind Elental God decided that it was ti to leave.

“My human allies, let’s have a good chat again after everything’s over.”

His way of addressing us changed from ‘human insects,’ to ‘mortals,’ to ‘human allies’— for the Wind Elental God to continually change was scary in its own way.

Nevertheless, since we had been successful and had the advantage over him, I wasn’t worried that he would play any tricks.

And just as I slightly relaxed and was about to heave a sigh of relief, my ring shook and brought a new battlefield ssage to .

“Roland, a sudden extre earthquake has occurred in the area, causing all of Red Maple Castle’s walls to collapse. Defending it has beco almost impossible; do you have any ergency ideas!”

Hearing this sudden call for help and the sounds of crying and shouting from the other side, I knew that the situation was now extrely unfavorable.

“...You guys want to seal ? Dream on! Even if I die, I won’t let you off easy!”

I thought back to Emordilorcan’s mysterious dying ssage, and I now realized that this was his true revenge.

“Margaret, you have the coordinates for Red Maple Castle, right? Could you teleport there? You only need to teleport .”

At the sa instant that Emordilorcan’s physical body was destroyed, a stone shard in the Bloodaxe Tent had suddenly transford into a shining ethereal giant.

As it walked, this ethereal giant kept decreasing in luminosity. Camdian’s judgnt had been correct; Emordilorcan had already been heading for death, and his current form was rely the final remnant of his soul.

From the very beginning, the Earth Elentals were Amon’s Bloodaxe Tribe’s allies, which was why Emordilorcan had cut off a small piece of his arm and transford it into a stone shard for Amon to hold on to as the ace up their sleeve.

“In the final, critical monts of the battle you can summon my power, but rember, you’re only allowed to summon at the final critical mont! Otherwise, I’m going to take my anger out on you first!”

Currently, as he watched his divine power gradually diminish, Emordilorcan, who had temporarily returned to life in his last vessel, knew that he didn’t have much ti remaining.

“Damned humans, since I’m fated to die anyways, I’m going to pull you all down with !”

*Boom!* *Boom!*

The incessant explosions caused substantial damages to the beastn in the form of friendly fire, but no matter what, Emordilorcan aid to self-destruct once more and take his final revenge.

“...Foolish humans, I, Emordilorcan, shall cause you all to tremble as you et your deaths! Rage, oh earth, for I am your master! Pledge your loyalty to and transform that damned castle wall to broken pieces under the fires of my rage!”

And that was how Emordilorcan finally lost his physical form once more and returned to the Earth Elental Plane riddled with injuries, forced to hibernate there until the next Holy War. Yet his powerful final earthquake attack brought devastating destruction along with it.

Yet this was just the beginning. Countless hordes of earth elentals erged from the ground, their target to destroy the enemy of the Earth Elental God.

“Red Maple Castle’s defense line is under enormous stress!”
