So awakeners tightened their grip on their weapons when Asher stepped forward. It would be a lie to say they were not worried because he had mastered a Divine class skill.
"Everyone, don’t be afraid! As long as we maintain our teamwork like before, we will be fine." Kairos tried to raise their spirits.
Of course, he knew their teamwork would be aningless in front of a Divine class skill, but he could not say it because their morale would crumble in an instant.
"Yeah. Brother Kairos is right."
"So what if he has mastered a Divine class skill? We won’t give up or bow our heads without a fight."
"Damn right!"
"We just need to hold out until brother Ren arrives. Once he is here, everything will be fine."
"Yes. Let’s do our best to hold them off until Brother Ren arrives."
Kairos’ words ignited a fire within them, causing their spirits to awaken instantly.
"Are you sure you want to protect them?" Asher still acted normally because they were nothing more than re numbers before a Divine class skill.
"Don’t bother trying to intimidate us, you damn beast! No matter what happen, we will protect sister Scarlett and sister Lexie!" Adrian declared.
"That’s right! You have to go through us first if you want to carry out your evil plan." The blue-haired man added.
"I see. So, you’ve all chosen the path of death, huh?" Asher said, "Then let’s see if you truly have no fear of death or if those are just empty words."
"Attack them!" Ardentis roared when his brother rushed toward awakeners.
"Kill them!"
"Make them regret their decision!"
"Tear them apart!"
The morale of the magical beasts soared.
With Asher on their side, they believed they would have the upper hand in the war because his strength was unmatched.
And their guess was right.
The mont Asher entered the battlefield, the course of the war shifted dramatically in their favor.
All the fights were dominated by them, and the sound of awakeners crying out in pain filled the air.
The battlefield looked entirely different from before as if the magical beasts had never been fighting seriously until now.
"Aaagghhh..."
"Aaagghhh..."
"Aaagghhh..."
One by one, awakeners were thrown into mid-air.
Asher was like a killing machine on the battlefield. Every ti an awakener attacked him, he or she would be instantly knocked away.
Even though none of them died, most of them were seriously injured because Asher’s attacks were so powerful.
"Stop him! Don’t let him get any closer!" Kairos pulled the string and used one of his strongest skills.
*Shui...
His arrow transford into a blazing firebird, screeching as it soared toward Asher at incredible speed.
Asher didn’t try to avoid or dodge it; instead, he stood calmly, waiting for his attack to reach him.
When the blazing firebird was about to hit his face, Asher caught it with his right hand, snapping the arrow in half and extinguishing the flas in an instant.
Asher tossed the broken arrow to the ground and scoffed, "You think you can stop with a skill like this?"
"What?!" Kairos’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Blazing Firebird was one of his strongest skills, yet Asher had dealt with it effortlessly. He even didn’t use any skill to counter it, as if his attack was nothing more than a child’s toy.
Kairos ca to his senses when Asher closed the distance between them. "So what if you can stop it? If one attack can’t stop you, then I will use two."
"No, three attacks!"
"No, four!"
"No, five!"
The other awakeners joined in, launching a relentless assault to stop Asher from getting any closer to Scarlett and Lexie.
"Ants are still ants, no matter how many there are," Asher stated.
Despite being ganged up by five people, he handled them effortlessly. His kicks injured them, and his punches sent them flying.
Kairos and the others were like helpless chickens before a butcher because the difference in strength between them was like heaven and earth.
Scarlett and Lexie could not suppress their anger when they saw him beating up Kairos and the others.
They got out of the defensive circle and rushed toward him.
"Sister Scarlett!"
"Sister Lexie!"
The other awakeners cried out in panic when they saw the two ladies dashing toward Asher.
His target was them, so their actions were no different from stepping willingly into a predator’s trap.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
To their surprise, Lexie and Scarlett could fight Asher equally.
Even though they got hit by him, they also managed to land an attack on his body.
Asher was startled by their strength because he previously thought they were only weak won with pretty faces.
"Interesting!" Asher wiped off the blood on the corner of his lips. "Then, how are you going to handle this?"
Terror overtook their faces when the ground shook, and the strong wind howled.
The awakeners knew this phenonon very well because they had experienced it on the third floor.
A Divine class skill!
Asher finally used his Divine class skill!
None of them had mastered a Divine class skill, so fear and anxiety assailed them, including Scarlett and Lexie.
*Hiss...
The enormous mythical serpent hissed after it slithered out of the void.
In an instant, the air turned icy cold, and an overwhelming pressure pressed down on everyone present.
The magical beasts were thrilled at the sight of the mythical serpent because it signaled the awakeners’ inevitable downfall.
"Human, your doom has co."
"Lowly human, that is the price of your foolish choice."
"Do you regret it now, human?"
Despite enduring heavy pressure like awakeners, the magical beasts didn’t panic because Asher was on their side.
As magical beasts grinned evilly, awakeners clenched their fists angrily.
The strongest skill they mastered was only Supre class, while the most powerful magic they learned was Tier 4 magic, so they stood no chance against the colossal mythical serpent.
"Kairos, what are we going to do now? None of us have mastered a Divine class skill or high Tier magic. We will perish if we do nothing." Elian’s voice was edged with fear.
"Kairos, think of sothing! We need a way out of this!" his voice was thick with panic as Adrian tried to suppress his fear.
Kairos didn’t say anything and only stared at the massive serpent because he also didn’t know how to deal with their current situation.
Asher didn’t attack them imdiately; instead, he glanced at Kairos and asked, "Foolish human, do you regret your decision now?"
"No! I don’t regret it and I will never regret it." Even if Kairos was given a second chance, he would still make the sa decision because he was a man who valued gratitude above all.
Asher shifted his gaze to other awakeners and asked, "What about your guys?"
"I also don’t regret it!" Dan stated.
" too!" Adrian added. "So what if I die today? We are all going to die soday. This just ans my ti cos a little sooner."
"Yeah!" the red-haired man spoke, "I would rather die than bow my head to a magical beast."
Scarlett and Lexie were touched by their actions and words.
They knew Ren had given them a chance to enter the temple, but they didn’t expect them to keep rembering his kindness.
They were even willing to sacrifice themselves to protect them as if they didn’t value their lives.
’Thank you, everyone.’
Lexie and Scarlett said in their minds.
"Since you want to die, then I will grant your wish." Right after Asher’s voice stopped, the mythical serpent rushed toward them.
"Everyone, use your strongest magic and skill to attack it." Kairos roared,
"Destroy it!"
"Break!"
"Die!"
Everyone listened to him and used their strongest skill or magic to attack the massive mythical serpent.
However, their attacks failed to destroy the mythical serpent.
Their strikes even could not slow down its advance because their attacks were utterly insignificant before its overwhelming might, unable to hinder its relentless charge.
Asher’s lips curled into a grin as he watched their futile efforts. "Did you really think such feeble attacks could stop my strike?"
Kairos and the others didn’t say anything and kept trying to destroy the mythical serpent.
However, their efforts were in vain.
No matter how many tis they attacked the mythical serpent, the outco remained unchanged.
They failed to destroy it!
"We can’t stop it!"
"Our attacks are too weak!"
"It’s useless! It’s useless!"
One by one, the awakeners stopped attacking the mythical serpent because they realized it was a futile effort.
"Don’t stop! Kept attacking it!" Kairos tried to raise their spirit again, but it didn’t work this ti.
’Tch!’
He used the Blazing Firebird skill again, but it got destroyed right after coming in contact with the mythical serpent.
When the massive serpent was close to him, Kairos finally gave up.
’Brother Ren, I’m sorry. I can’t protect sister Lexie and sister Scarlett.’
He slowly closed his eyes, accepting his fate.
’Brother Ren, we are sorry. We can’t protect your won.’
The other awakeners also apologized to him.
Just when they thought their end had co, a radiant golden bell materialized, enveloping them and protecting them from the mythical serpent.
*Ding...
A deep, resonant chi echoed as the golden bell reflected a portion of Asher’s attack, throwing all magical beasts several ters backwards.
Asher was stunned by the sudden appearance of the golden bell.
He didn’t know who summoned the golden bell because he had advanced to the sixth floor when Ren entered the fifth floor.
"Who are you?" Asher asked as he skimd his surroundings.
As Asher searched for the person who summoned the golden bell, a young man who looked like an angel stood in mid-air, looking at him.
