Leaping sideways to dodge the fatal blow, a glinting blade whistled at his side and brushed his neck. A faint line of blood appeared while his hand reacted to the assault, thrusting his hardened, knifelike nails to his enemy.
Instead of feeling the fresh liquid and the warmth of the flesh, the claw struck into the wall invisible even to his eyes. Subconsciously, he hissed as annoyance simmered within. But before he could make his second move and vent out, his instinct screamed to him to tilt his neck to the side and an image of his head being pierced flashed in his mind.
Unconditionally following his guts, he avoided yet another strike that aimed to his head. Though he might even survive by having his head damaged or looped off of his neck, the idea of being taken captive and experimented with his enemies filled his mind

Feeling the bombardment of the explosive arrows, the gigantic being whose appearance was formed with endless worms finally shrieked in anger. It thought that at last, it would be able to overwhelm anyone on its path and take on a feastful massacre. Yet, what awaited it was an obstacle harder than it had imagined.Those tiny warriors with their little bows were easy picking back when it dealt with them one at a time. Even a group of three or five was hardly a problem. But when more than twenty of them gathered together, along with a mysterious figure clad in wind, they were so troublesome, to the point it thought of them as a threat.However, the real peril lay on the figure whose body was shrouded in wind with movements just as fast as the torrent he had summoned. It thought it was the ruler of the wind and death, the wind was
Dark Eater Chapter 127 - Showdown
Panting heavily, Aaron glared at the wizard who was ten meters away in front of him. The wand which the wizard possessed had materialized a transparent, muddy-like sphere right at the spot of the goat's carving. Shiver clawed to his spine every glance he directed to those spheres and his once boiled temper had calmed down by now.For he had no luxury to go berserk in his state. Half of his stomach was gone, leaving a half circle wound with intestines and bones showing out, with a bizarre scene of his blood that didn't flow down and was still intact on his body, considering there was an empty place beneath them.His arm wasn't spared either, leaving behind a similar severed limb like his opponent. But in contrast to his foe, his arm and stomach didn't heal at all, only black smoke coming out of his scarred flesh.

"Gahk!"Spitting out a mouthful of blood, another wizard was trampled right underneath Edmurd's paw while it scrutinized the fallen foe, especially the stuff hidden beneath his black cloak. And again, it's expectation was betrayed when the items that rolled out of that cloak were some stack of papers, a straw doll, and some chains.Considering Edmurd had dealt with the wizard with the same amount of effort as the others, the result might have been disappointing. Not to mention, since that was the last wizard it had taken care of in this whole fight, the only wizard left would be the one who was fighting with Aaron.The other rangers that helped them were already injured to some extent and now have been waiting for their chance to help Aaron for a while. But no ma
Dark Eater Chapter 129 - The Overseer
At the far distance away from the battlefield of the elves and the wizard, an outline of a figure was standing upright at the very top of the tallest tree in the area.The tree was dead, with not even a single leaf on its numerous branches, similar to all of the trees around. Because of that, the moonlight unobstructedly casted it's illumination to the caster land below, making everything to be brighter than the normal wilderness.An old telescope was held in his hand while the figure used the telescope to see a certain scene. Soon, the edge of the lips beneath the shade was curled upwards. Putting away the telescope, a glowing pair of gold were squinted slightly. Then, he softly muttered, soft enough to only be heard by himself."Glad to have a plan B in c

"Rawwwrr!"Roaring out loud, the air in front of Edmurd immediately created a ripple. In the next moment, the artificial demon has its movements halted whilst excruciating pain emerges in its head. Within that period of time, tree's roots and vines started to sprung up from the ground and went to the hurricane. Half of them were quickly torn to shreds but those ones that were thicker had succeeded in tying up the demon.Obviously, the demon wanted to break free and forcefully rip apart the vines and roots with its strength. But seeing that it's strength didn't work, it changed its tactic and let the black wind begin to corrode and chipped them slowly.However, Edmurd didn't just stay still and dashed to the demon. Fangs and claws bared, edmurd growled and pounced

When she finally saw Edmurd back to the chief's residence, along with Aaron and some ranges in tow, Elizabeth quickly walked to their side to ask about the current situation. Yet, instead of receiving a good news, the information about how the demon would destroy this part of the forest and the chief was the only one who buy some time for them, had made Elizabeth stunned silly for she thought with edmurd and Aaron, the wizards wouldn't have a chance to win at all.Now that the worst possible scenario has unfolded, Elizabeth felt the sense of urgency to get back to the other side as soon as possible. But she couldn't just run away by herself. For now, she decided to help the elves to pack up and organize the civilians.With the exception of Aaron offering his help to the villagers, Edmurd was only observing the village whi

As blood trickled down from his forehead, a series of heavy breaths flowed out of his mouth with one of his arms throbbing unbearably. The gigantic mass of darkness stood in front of him as he felt the warmth, but exhausting surge of energy condemning beneath his sole feets. Whilst the winds still blew incessantly around him and carried his weary body in the air, the notion of him winning this fight was dwindling as time passed.It was unfolding like he had expected. His previous spells which could affect the creature's ethereal form have turned out to be no more than gentle pokes by now. The once equal battle had changed into one sided match. It takes a few of his best spells in firepower to keep the demon busy."Still… Strong?".Contrary to before where

Stopping his movements, Aaron turned his head to see the bright light flashed in the far distance. It seemed to be a powerful explosion and all of the traveling elves took a look at it with a grimmer face. Elizabeth, who noticed that, couldn't help but ask out loud."Why they seem concerned right now?"Staring back at the young lady, one of the rangers smiled and spoke politely, "Those blinding lights should come from our chief's best spells. Even though we are so far away, it would be easily recognizable to notice his power."Looking up to the canopy where one of the few rangers managed to catch up to Edmurd's speed, Elizabeth looked a little surprised before she nodded in acknowledgement. Fae's image and their first meeting crossed Elizabeth's mind. They only met for a sho

Yet, calm still reigned over his senses and as he watched the second most dangerous being he had ever crossed in his millions of reincarnations, Ludwig displayed a fearless smile."So you want to execute me right here right now?""You defiled the Sacred Pearl for your purpose, Author." Walking to the slowly dying Ludwig, Edmurd spoke, "I could care less of the countless conflicts and conspiracies you've caused in the human world to impede the progress of Sacred Heart or to nurture your little champion. But touching one of the origins of the world had crossed the line.""Trying to justify your action? Wh

"...The magic power…""This… !""How…"All of the wizards in the chamber let out panicked screams when they saw their magic dissipated into thin air. No matter how many times they chanted the runic languages, the talismans and artifacts didn't respond at all as if they had turned into ordinary items.'What's this flow…'Looking at how things had unfolded, Aaron widened his eyes as he noticed the flow in the air shifted into something he had never witnessed before. He who was the most sensitive in sensing the magic power of the wizards realized that their flow became chaotic all of sudden. To the point they even cast the mos

"Valkyrie…"Muttering that name, the image of a beautiful woman in armor flashed in her head as she compared the image to the creature before her. She couldn't see any semblance for the creature to possess such a title. But putting aside the weird naming style, she continued her words, "What do you want me? Am I in the headquarters of the Sacred Heart?""You catch on quickly," nodding his head, Valkyrie said, "for your first question, I want your blood and life. For the second question, yes, you are right in the middle of our headquarters."'Blood and life… a sacrifice?' widening her eyes, her attention shifted into the second answer while she glanced to half round shaped steel restraining her limbs. As her face became paler, Valkyrie clapped his bony han

"So, this time for you to be taken by them and brought to that thing has come…"The familiar voice fell on her ears as she looked around her. With nothing but white space stretched into the horizon, Elizabeth felt the sense of Deja Vu and clenched her fists. A strange, uncomfortable feeling spread all over her skin yet she couldn't quite describe it. Rather than itching, those feelings were as if something had struck her everywhere, leaving no spots unchecked, giving her a gross sensation that made her shudder."What are you doing to me!?" she shouted, half expecting the voice would give a proper explanation for she knew that she was back at that strange vision she had for quite a while. However, another part of her knew better that the voice wouldn't respond to her. That was how it always was and she didn't think this t

When the first touch of twilight appeared on the far horizon, at last, the convoy of Humvees stopped at the middle of the road which led to the mountain range outside of the city. Unlike when it was high noon where many types of tourists and students came to the mountains, there was almost no one around this road at this time. Only a few vehicles would be spotted on their way.One of the soldiers got out of the car and walked to the very front of the line. As he chanted, he raised the plate-like item with multiple magic circles engraved in it. Performing some hand signs, he finally placed the plate on the ground and still continued his chant. Before long, a bright blue light emerged from thin air and formed a large oval shaped gate, hovering right on top of the plate.Backing away, the soldier went back to his car and the

Outside of the military base.The once tranquil night descended upon the spacious field which was filled with littered corpses and blackened holes. The moon had already moved to the far horizon as some of the stars twinkled for the last time before they faded into the dark sky. Though flames flickered everywhere whilst groans of pain became the flowing hymn of the once bloodied fight, most of the casualties were inflicted to the mercenaries."...This is crazy."A mutter was uttered by a lone soldier while he stood amidst the battlefield. Some of his comrades were trying to detain the surviving enemies lying on the ground. His task was no different than them but for quite a while, he could only heaps of corpses rather than heavily injured combatants.

When the sharp steel brushed through his cheek, the scarlet sword on his hand struck right at the demon's neck, bringing forth superhuman force behind it and destroying half of its throat. Instead of showing any reactions, the demon pursued further with five metallic limbs sprouting from its back.Most of the strikes were parried by Aaron whilst he observed the movements of his foe. Despite both being in deadlock for a while, deep down, Aaron realized that in an endurance battle, even he would lose to this artificial demon.'But it won't take that long.'As his eyes glowed brighter than before, his pace doubled in the blink of an eye, to the point not even the demon could follow. Dozens of slashes and heavy blows were sent to its metallic body, causing it to open its m

Although the azure steel blade before him weighed almost five tons, Aaron still blocked it completely. A few moments later, his crystallized sword showed signs of cracks before he had tried to swat the azure blade away."Aaron…"Hearing she's called out to him had prompted him to turn his head and gazed upon her straightforward eyes. Before he could utter a reply, however, he felt a danger coming from his back and split his body into countless bats scattered around the place. Still, the blade managed to skewer three of the bats and flicked them to the ground.Appearing right beside Elizabeth, Aaron fixated his eyes onto the creature whilst he said in a grim voice, "You've become famous over the last few days in this world and weeks in another, dear friend.

"Are they going to be fine?"Walking beside Leonard and a girl that was as tall as her, with pigtails hairstyle, and white dress, Elizabeth asked with concern. Without turning her head, the girl who introduced herself as Violet back in the Esper's lounge, now smiling confidently and spoke,"It's true that things get a little out of hand. But considering his powerful captain is, he probably took out their leader in no time and then targeted the rest of the terrorists next."Hearing Violet uttered with such confidence, Elizabeth shifted her head forward and tried to dismiss her worry. She had seen how Kevin fared before she had time to evacuate since things became dicey. Although he couldn't deal with the wizard in a short time, he almost had the wizard if not for the do
