Chapter 202 : Demon King (6)
The New Demon King who took over the forr Demon King's body.
The forr Demon King's head fell off, and the New Demon King's hideously twisted head sprouted up.
A bundle of squirming tentacles also grew from the chest where Adjak's sword had been pulled out, leaving a hole.
“…….”
I was lost for words at the terrible sight. But I couldn't just stand there blankly.
Because the Demon King wasn't the only target I had to pay attention to.
‘Adjak…… I hoped you would find peace…….’
Adjak was creaking as he approached .
Would Adjak's body also beco terribly twisted like the New Demon King?
I hoped such a thing wouldn't happen.
But I didn't know what to do either.
It didn't matter what happened to the forr Demon King's body.
It was enough to just cut down an enemy.
But what about Adjak?
‘Can I cut Adjak’s body?’
Currently, Adjak's body is just a shell.
Since the New Demon King is possessing and using it, he was clearly my enemy.
However, I couldn't easily thrust my sword.
Adjak was staggering toward with stiff legs as his joints had hardened.
Instead of cutting Adjak first, I slamd into him with all my might and pushed him away.
Crash!
Adjak's flung body hit the wall and collapsed.
Mushy Demonic Energy flowed down from the wall and covered Adjak's body.
But Adjak got up again and started walking slowly toward .
The speed was very slow.
So I looked at the forr Demon King.
The guy was just smiling with the corners of his mouth raised without making any particular attack.
That smile felt more terrible than any attack.
Just then, I heard a presence from the stairs. Keldric, Bea, Nihel, Everchen, Eidon.
The separate unit mbers who entered the Demon King's Castle with had all co up to the 3rd floor.
“Hold your breath as much as possible!”
I told them the precautions.
I heard the sound of hup, holding their breath.
Then, I couldn't be distracted by my companions anymore.
I looked alternately at the Demon King and Adjak again.
I knew it wasn't sothing to worry about.
I just hoped there might be another way.
I have to cut down both the forr Demon King and Adjak.
It was just difficult to make up my mind, but it was a very simple matter.
Just as I was about to put my resolved mind into action, Keldric's loud voice ca from the stairs.
“Polarin, release Termination for a mont!”
I had been activating Termination constantly since so ti ago.
It was useful for closely grasping the enemy's movents or disrupting magic, but it was true that it was a burden to allies as well.
Looking at the stairs, Eidon, whose face had turned pale, was gathering Mana.
Flash!
As soon as Termination was released, Eidon used magic.
Rumble!
An Ice Coffin neatly imprisoned Adjak.
Frost ford on Adjak's face inside the coffin.
I withdrew my gaze from Adjak and glared at the Demon King.
While doing so, I spoke to my companions behind my back.
“Thank you. Thanks to you, I can focus more on the battle. I will stand at the front, so please support if you see an opening.”
The ti I looked at my companions was only for a mont, but I knew the fact that they hadn't co after fully recovering.
Nevertheless, my companions had climbed up to the 3rd floor of the Demon King's Castle, where it was difficult even to breathe, to help .
I could feel the firm determination of my companions.
Eidon, who had difficulty using magic even before entering the Demon King's Castle, gathered his last strength to use the Ice Coffin.
Bea, who had collapsed, rode on Nihel with Eidon to co here, and Everchen and Keldric were standing guard in front of the companions in case of any unforeseen situation.
Rumble-crash!
Nine Titan Blades broke through the ceiling of the Demon King's Castle and fell.
Three of them fell in front of Adjak trapped in the Ice Coffin, and the remaining six fell in a circle surrounding the Demon King and .
Soon, the Titan Blades resonated with each other, and a wave of Divine Power spread.
It seed as if a circular arena had been created between the Demon King and .
‘Without placing a single one in front of themselves…….’
I knew with what mindset Everchen had dropped the Titan Blades.
Eidon, who could only call forth three Titan Blades at first, had dropped nine before I knew it.
Seeing that he dropped more than usual, it seed he had used all his power without leaving any reserve.
“I will finish it soon.”
The Divine Power pouring out from the Titan Blades resonated with the Divine Power in my body.
I felt my body beco sowhat free from the crushing pressure of the Demon King's Castle.
It was partly thanks to the Divine Power, but it also felt like my companions' struggle was adding strength to .
I rushed toward the Demon King who was smiling bizarrely while inside the forr Demon King's body.
He didn't just wait for my attack this ti either.
The tentacles spewing from his split chest divided into hundreds, thousands of strands and poured down on .
They were very thin threads, but it was easy to guess that trendous power was condensed in each strand.
I shot Sword Energy into the void.
Sword Energy like a full moon, different from Tayon's, flew while distorting space.
The energy of death was also carried in the Sword Energy, tearing apart the tentacles flying in with ruthless montum.
The Demon King thrust his fist forward, and the fist wind generated in the process clashed with my Sword Energy.
Crash.
Cra-a-ash……!
A clash of formidable power occurred.
Shockwaves spread in all directions, and a deafening roar was heard.
The sword wind summoned by just a single punch had crumbled the Sword Energy containing trendous Mana.
But it didn't matter.
Since I didn't assu I could kill the Demon King with a single Sword Energy anyway.
I, having already activated Cutting Absorption, flew toward the Demon King like an arrow without being pushed back by the shockwave.
And I wasn't the only one flying toward the Demon King.
‘One Flower, Ten Thousand Kills.’
Bea's Fourfold Transformation, One Flower, Ten Thousand Kills poured down on the Demon King.
Arrows reaching ten thousand in number were concentrated on the Demon King.
There was not a single arrow heading toward my back.
Bea demonstrated high concentration and succeeded in controlling the arrows already fired.
Thwack-thwack-thwack-thwack──!
Countless arrows made the Demon King's body look like a hedgehog.
But the Demon King did not fall.
Whoosh!
Demonic Energy erupted from the Demon King's body and burned away the arrows stuck in his body at once.
But I had already arrived by then.
Slash!
The sword cut the Demon King's waist.
I quickly spun around and thrust the sword again.
Slash.
I swung the sword once again.
Connecting the trajectory and connecting it again.
Whenever the sword passed, the Demon King was trapped in my flow and hacked to pieces.
Cutting Absorption shaved off a chunk of the Demon King's Demonic Energy and even absorbed that Demonic Energy as my power.
I felt the magnitude of power loaded on the sword gradually becoming stronger.
The Demon King had burned away even ten thousand arrows cleanly, but several large wounds remained where my sword had passed.
Soon, the forr Demon King's body was full of large wounds.
But from the scratches on the Demon King's body, dozens of arms and legs grew again and started stretching toward .
Thud-thud-thud!
The Demon King used the nurous arms and legs sprouted on his body freely.
I also tried to bring the flow to my side by unfolding the Linked Sword, but the nurous arms and legs began to create irregularities.
Clang-clang-clang!
[Intangible Armor], unfolded to block the kicks that could not possibly be struck away with a sword, shattered into pieces from a single attack.
At the sa ti, a gap appeared in my continuous attacks.
The Demon King did not miss that gap.
Dozens of arms and legs poured down on at once.
It was like a net made of nurous arms and legs.
‘It is over if I get caught.’
I swung the sword shortly to scatter Sword Energy, and unfolded Black Fla and Red Thread.
The distance between the Demon King and was short, but the Sword Energy unfolded at close range contained the Mana of Cutting Absorption that had absorbed even the Demon King's power.
Crash!
The Sword Energy cut off the Demon King's hands and feet that were in front.
The Red Thread carrying Black Fla wound tightly around the Demon King's hands.
The Demon King's hands and feet were crushed by the pressure of the tightening thread and burned at the sa ti.
– Grrr-uh-uh-uk grrr-ah-ah-guk…….
A groan flowed from the Demon King's mouth area.
Unlike the previous incomprehensible words, the guy's painful emotions were felt vividly.
However, a bundle of tentacles eventually flew in and pierced my chest.
Cough.
For a mont, it wasn't even easy to breathe.
The bundle of tentacles that pierced even the Thunder Plate made by a legendary Dwarf craftsman at once.
And the tentacles gradually expanded their body while piercing my chest.
Crack-crack-crack!
The Thunder Plate began to break.
It released electricity until the end, but the tentacles did not care and gradually grew larger while piercing my chest.
Blood flowed from the corners of my mouth, and Demonic Energy fluctuated inside my body.
Divine Power burst out as if exploding, and Sea's Healing tried to heal , sensing the danger.
I applied force to the hand gripping Maron and struck down the tentacles. The God of Death added power.
However, as if the Demon King also poured his utmost effort into this attack, the power pouring out from the bundle gradually beca stronger.
Just then, Keldric jumped out into the middle of the circular arena created by the Titan Blades.
Keldric imdiately manifested Fourfold Transformation, Evil Spirit.
Kwoo-gwagagaga!
The Evil Spirit wrapped around the Demon King with terrifying montum.
Crunch, crunch!
The sound of bones and flesh being crushed was heard.
Keldric moved his body quickly, dodging the Demon King's grasp and threw a punch.
Whenever the fist wrapped in the legendary tal, Orichalcum, touched, the Demon King's hands and feet bent and burst.
“I can’t hold out for long!”
Keldric shouted urgently. I nodded.
I could borrow the power of the Three Divine Artifacts here.
I could use Absolute Defense, or if I were pushed a little further, God's Avatar might be activated to gift imnse power.
But the battle I had to fight still remained.
If I had to fight such a battle with Adjak wrapped in the Ice Coffin as well, I had to think about what cos next.
I stuck Maron into the ground and grabbed the bundle of tentacles with both hands.
And twisted the tentacles with all my might. The power of peace and the power of death dwelt in my hands.
And my Divinity, the red energy desiring only battle, also surged up.
Rip!
I eventually succeeded in tearing the tentacles in the middle.
I grabbed the ends of the tentacles and pulled them out of my body. I gritted my teeth at the uncontrollable pain.
But I couldn't just struggle in pain like this.
I grabbed Maron stuck in the ground again and ran toward the Demon King.
Keldric's Evil Spirit was still struggling while biting the Demon King, and Keldric was likewise dodging the guy's nurous arms and legs, aiming for his opening.
“Keldric, dodge!”
Everchen shouted with a loud voice instead of .
As soon as Keldric dodged, I jumped high and slashed the sword downward from above.
Aura, gravity and Black Fla, Cutting Absorption, Divine Power, the power of death, my Divinity.
The sword that gathered all the power I possessed split the forr Demon King's body in half, from head to crotch.
