Chapter 512 - Battle For Revenge (2)
"She is my precious discple. Don't you dare to have any weird ideas for her or you shall suffer my wrath." Elena reminded with a cynical look.
"Hou, I see... Now, it all makes sense." Xero looked at the Golden Goddess and then at the black-haired girl again.
One thing was a bit strange, and he couldn't understand. Wherever he looked at the girl, she was only a mortal girl at the Apprentice level, but she could push him back with magic? Yet, it was the one thing that attracted him to this little human girl.
Meanwhile, Elysia and Sylvia went back to watching the battle between Dylan, the sole ruler of the Devil Continent, and Magnus, the former Emperor... the one who once ruled over the western region of the Human Continent.
"Ely, will my father win? He has already lost and died once, right?" Sylvia suddenly asked.
"I can't give you a definitive answer, Sylvi. But you need to know that we will not engage in your father's battle of revenge." Elysia answered clearly, which broadly represented everyone.
"I see..." Sylvia clasped her hands and took a deep breath. She hoped her father to win.
At that moment, Dylan did nothing and only stood fifteen meters from the one creature he was about to slay.
"What's wrong, Dylan yo? Are you afraid I'll kill you again easily? You're lucky enough that that girl helped you, but second chances won't be as beautiful. After I kill you, then your daughter will get her turn. That way, you don't have to be afraid to be lonely in the grave. You and your family can reunite, hahaha!" Magnus laughed out loud while holding his bloated belly, which was covered in thick earth armor.
"The wrath of darkness, the dominion of blood over mortals... Blood Sphere." Dylan created a tiny ball of blood right on top of his palm.
"I will mend my disgrace and shame by killing you with one hit. You will not be able to escape death no matter how thick your protection is. No matter what you try to do, only one thing awaits you, which is a painful death." Dylan mumbled coldly even though his surrounding temperature rose constantly.
"Are you sure about that? I knew you were going to perform a magic by destroying all my blood cells. However, I had anticipated everything thanks to his help." Magnus took out three golden daggers and made them spin around him.
A yellow barrier immediately enveloped him. He then smirked disdainfully at the Devil Emperor down there.
"Ignorant fool. Then, feel my wrath and vengeance in this one strike. The blood and darkness, judgment!" Dylan stared intently at his opponent and instantly crushed the tiny blood ball in his hand.
"Hey." Magnus raised the corner of his mouth and snorted disdainfully. However, a deep pain suddenly assaulted him from within, right in the heart.
*Splat*
Something like it just got destroyed instantly. Magnus clutched his left chest with an expression full of torment.
"Blurgh!" Magnus spat out a few mouthfuls of blood and fell from his golem to the ground.
"For the next three minutes, you will really be tormented very painfully and painfully. You will probably wish to die sooner rather than feel it all. After that, your body and soul will also be destroyed as if being devoured from within. Your blood and magic energy has turned into a deadly parasite that will make you suffer to death and disappear into nothingness." Dylan walked closer to the human who was writhing in pain on the ground. His expression was cold, but he couldn't hide the evil grin on his face.
"Ack, argh, urgh!" Magnus couldn't say anything even if he wanted to. His voice was muffled by the blood in his throat.
"Yeah, keep on moaning in pain and screaming in despair! Your suffering is like comfort music to me." Dylan really enjoyed his mortal enemy's suffering. The very one he wanted to kill the most.
At that moment, Elysia winced a bit as she didn't like such torturous punishment. She believed that whatever the reason, a quick death was a deserved liberation. No matter how grave the sin the opponent committed and regardless of the depth of the grudge.
"Ely, please don't see or hear that. You are an angel and I don't want you to continue to see the dark side of a devil. My father has suffered so much because of that pig man. So please close your eyes and pretend you don't see that." Sylvia covered Elysia's ears, but she only had two hands and couldn't close Elysia's eyes too.
Elysia just sighed to hear that. Elena also gave the same advice in mind. Because of that, she just closed her eyes and ears as if she didn't see anything and didn't know such a terrible thing was happening in front of her.
At that time, she really couldn't tell what was wrong and what was right. She only pretended not to know about such cruel acts over there, just because, perhaps, what Emperor Magnus had done was unforgivable.
After all, that person had already unsealed the Ruvoid God and put the world in tremendous danger prematurely.
"Yeah, that's just a devil. A part of evil, hehe..." Xero chuckled as if he was amused.
By the time the fat man was immobile on the ground and didn't even make a sound, Rhea sent telepathy to Elysia. 'Master Elysia, that human is a Human Emperor. His body, soul, and magic energy had been damaged. However, his life energy is still pure and will soon disappear. Would you like to use it for your recovery?'
'No, Rhea. I have principles. I can't explain it now, but I feel it is wrong. I don't want to get involved in that.' Elysia refused without needing to consider her decision.
'All right.' Rhea didn't try to persuade or convey any other reason.
The decision had already been made, but she still felt it was a bit of a waste to let Emperor-level life energy just disappear. Well, at least, that life energy would be absorbed by nature and return to the world.
"Sigh..." Dylan sighed to see the dust from the one creature he wanted to kill the most.
Now, the subject of his revenge was gone without leaving anything behind. But, now what?
Dylan just looked up, wondering if his wife's soul had calmed down in that realm? After a few moments of silence, he then just walked away from the crime scene to head for his daughter.
"Woah, that's terrifying magic, father. Can you control someone's blood at will? Can I do the same? But, why does my demonic form have a tail, wings, and horns? I'm more like a half dragon." Sylvia welcomed her father with a few tweets.
"That's because your mother was a demonic dragon. You inherited her bloodline as well as mine. Now, let's go home." Dylan didn't say much. However, just as he was about to grasp his daughter's hand, she just turned away and hid behind her friend.
"I don't want to go home, bweh. You can go home alone and finish all your business. I'm fine here with Ely and the others~" Sylvia stuck out her tongue.
"You-" Dylan frowned. He tried to catch his daughter, but she continued to oppose and run away with a human girl standing between them as the pivot.
"I don't want to go home, so I don't want to go back to that your palace. I'm comfortable here with my adventurer team." Sylvia ran from her father, but the two of them just ran around Elysia.
"You're blocking me. Can't you get out of my way so I can catch that rebelious daughter of mine?" Dylan pursed his lips with annoyance. He wanted to immediately catch his daughter, but terrible memories kept him from being rude to this human girl.
"Hm? I'm just standing motionless here, though? But, well... If Sylvi doesn't want to go home with you, then please let she be with us. In a few more days, we'll go to the Devil Continent, to your palace, on some bussiness. Worry not, Sylvi will be fine with us." Elysia smiled in amusement and decided to help Sylvia out of Dylan's insistence.
"Right, right! My current adventurer team consists of four divine beings. Evil God would not dare to disturb me here. And again, my life couldn't be more peaceful, free, and happy as it is now. I am a grown man, father. Please let your baby daughter to flap her wings to see the vastness of the world." Sylvia pumped her hands with an excited expression. She flapped her wings repeatedly as she emphasized her words.
"Four divine beings?" Dylan was stunned for a moment, then he looked at all the existences around him.
Apart from the Evil God and the big white ball, there were four noble existences. However, he could identify two of them being the Goddess of Blessings and the Goddess of Light.
"Yes, yes! So, you can go home with a calm heart, father. I'll at least visit you once a year, maybe." Sylvia nodded repeatedly.
"..." Dylan was silent, but he started to consider something in his mind. In the end, he just turned around and walked away. "I want you to return immediately because there is something I want to show you. For the time being, you will be trapped in that form. You can enjoy your experience as a half demonic dragon without being able to use disguises. Enjoy it. Until we meet again at the palace."
"Huh, wait, what?" Sylvia was stunned and widened her eyes. She wanted to ask what her father meant, but he kept walking away.
*Bam*
Unfortunately, there was a barrier that prevented him from leaving. He bumped it just as he had made an excellent moment to leave!
