Nadia was instantly out of breath, never expecting to witness such a terrifying figure emerging from Azazel's body."It seems like she's realized something about me. Well, even if she wants to run after my explanation earlier, I won't mind...""I- Incredible...""Hah..."It wasn't a face of fear or tension; instead, Nadia's eyes were filled with sparkling stars, making her look a bit strange."What's going on with this woman? Am I not as frightening as many people think?"At that moment, something invisible seemed to grip Nadia's body, a burning sensation that made her cheeks turn red."Incredible. This is the first time I've witnessed a man with such fortitude. He doesn't have the typical characteristics found in most creatures! Always maintaining a cold demeanor—truly remarkable..."The more Azazel observed Nadia, the more amazed she became at him. It wasn't a threatening gaze but the unusual intensity in her eyes.Afterward, Nadia didn't offer many comments; she just fell silent wh
The creature that had attacked their protective barrier had jumped away, maintaining distance from them.Azazel glanced towards Nadia. In truth, he felt the attack earlier was unnecessary. Even though a bit dangerous, it wouldn't have any real impact. The only outcome was a minor scratch that managed to crack Nadia's barrier protection."This...," Nadia's eyes widened as she saw who was standing before her now.The form appeared vastly different from their last encounter, but its energy was still clear, especially the weapon wielded by the monster.Horned, with sharp spikes protruding from its mouth, and covered in tough skin, it was indeed the same monster Nadia had faced when trying to stop the invasion of insect-like creatures."I didn't expect it to evolve this far! Just to withstand its attack, I nearly couldn't manage it!"At the very least, she required a significant amount of energy to create high-level protection. However, she now realized the barrier's strength would still e
Nadia had witnessed directly the extraordinary power within Azazel's body, something far beyond that of a normal human.The power that Azazel has also continued to provide knowledge that even a hero cannot defeat him."Do you have any intention to defeat the monster on that hill?"After that question was asked, Azazel slowly turned his face, gazing towards the slowly moving sky."My aim isn't something like that. Yes, maybe if it challenges me, I won't just ignore it! However, I'm here to ensure something!"Something unspoken but had made Azazel's gaze more serious than usual.He didn't offer many words anymore, choosing instead to resume his steps, leaving Nadia in confusion."Is it true that his current goal is to defeat the monster there? Sure, he's powerful, but if that's not his aim to defeat the monster..."For now, Nadia just needed to follow Azazel, wanting to see for herself what the man would do.She continued to gaze at Azazel's back, perhaps not realizing this action made
Azazel became astonished by what this person actually saw in him.His eyes widened, his heartbeat irregular, and sweat slowly emerged; these were clearly reactions akin to staring at a terrifying monster."Yes, I am indeed Azazel!"Nadia instantly narrowed her eyes. As an adventurer, she had often heard that name, even so never met the person directly. Rumors suggested Azazel was a formidable figure."So, this is the one named Azazel? No wonder he can wield such terrifying power. Moreover, he seems deliberately restrained from holding back his strength to others..."The man sighed in relief, appearing to have almost lost hope."I didn't expect it would be you sent here...""No..." Azazel interjected before going further. "It seems you've misunderstood! I came here not to eradicate the existing problems. My goal is directed by the Guild to handle the issues, but I'll confirm first!"It sounded very confusing, but they couldn't reject Azazel's opinion."So, don't expect too much from me
In an area like this, Azazel didn't expect to encounter so many monsters. As he continued forward, not only did the energy from the hills become more oppressive, but the power held by the monsters also grew more ferocious.There would be no chance for ordinary creatures to survive in this situation; they would quickly come under attack from those insect monsters.Crash...Moreover, since Azazel had been there for three hours, the monsters showed no sign of stopping their assaults.However, with such a large number, they had definitely reached their limit, and those monsters' condition seemed to reduce drastically.He found more freedom to continue up the hill, but in the midst of his journey, he felt a high-speed buzzing energy.Kaboom...Just as he was about to turn, a heavy blow landed, scattering the ground. Nevertheless, an attack like that wouldn't be injuring Azazel. With simple movements, he could easily dodge such assaults.The impact on the ground wasn't from the monsters' at
"No, the power you used is enough to prove your strength, but it is still not enough to defeat me!"What surprised Azazel a little was Nadia's ability to penetrate his magical protection. If it were a low-level enemy attack, it wouldn't have been able to harm Azazel's body.This time, Nadia showed her true prowess in front of Azazel, and Azazel had to admit that attacks like these were indeed dangerous."Is that so! I will tell you what makes me a great adventurer, feared by many people! I have the ability to cut through anything. When I channel energy into the weapon I use, its power becomes so great that it can cut through anything as hard as it may be..."Azazel didn't understand whether this information was true or not. However, if power like that could be harnessed, it can destroy any form of protection.Azazel took a deep breath. It seemed like he had to start taking things more seriously."I warn you, there will be no more mercy after this! If you truly want to be my enemy, the
"Huh... I didn't expect him to use something like this on me!" Nadia had just come out of the Guild master's room, as she was supposed to inform that she had defeated Azazel.However, all of it happened beyond her awareness.She regained consciousness when she was outside the Guild building and instantly went to treat the wounds she had suffered. The energy earlier was enough to sustain her for a long time."If it weren't for him, I might be dead now... really surprising, huh? I thought you would succeed in doing all this..."Azazel wasted quite a bit of time, and the night finally arrived, casting a dark and threatening atmosphere over the forest.The chances of an ordinary person surviving were slim, but not for Azazel.Crash...As soon as he entered the forest area, he was aggressively attacked by insects whose large forms were difficult to see. But it didn't matter; Azazel's eyes capable of sensing the bodies of living creatures, could function even in the dark night."There are q
Nadia still wanted to follow in Azazel's footsteps, but here she was hindered by her condition. Besides her body no longer being able to move freely, she had to face insect monsters that seemed to be waiting for her arrival.Their eyes continued to stare from the darkness of the night, shining with a threatening intent."Will he be okay there? With great power, he may not suffer too many injuries, but what he faces...."Ting...Their weapons continued to clash, blow after blow was delivered. However, there was no opportunity for Aster to defeat Azazel.Aster's body was repeatedly pushed, thrown, and crashed into trees."The power you possess is still not enough to entertain me. Can't you have another power?"Even though he could regenerate, facing continuous attacks like this without a break, it was impossible for Aster to defeat Azazel.Azazel's eyes narrowed, giving off a threatening aura to Aster. It seemed as if this creature considered what it felt was just a passing breeze.But.
Violet approached Nadena, delicately touching the woman's skin, and then traced the sensitive area with her fingers until she gasped slightly."What's happening to my body? I feel hot, she must have done something to me..."Nadena felt difficult to control her breath, her eyes widening as Violet's face drew near.The woman's lips continued to close in as if to touch her body, but in reality, she only stood beside Nadena's ear."Do you want to know what will happen to him?"Nadena's pupils dilated once again. She wanted to speak, to make Violet release her body, but it was futile. She wouldn't have the chance.With her body half naked like this, she couldn't hope that Violet would treat her well."I'll give you a choice, but if you don't obey me, I'll kill you! Do you want to save him?"There was no response, just a stare filled with hatred in response to all this.Her periodic breathing was a witness to her courage to challenge Violet's power."True, if you can't answer, this will get
This giant dome slowly began to shrink to the size of a baseball.Zemius and Mary approached the dome, still feeling the magical power emanating from Azazel's body, causing them to hesitate in taking the dome."What are we going to do with this object?" Mary asked."Nothing more. We have to hand this over to Queen Violet! Only she will be able to handle all of this..." replied Zemius.Suddenly, Zemius looked back, his eyes fixed on an unusual location."What are you doing?""Nothing, I just feel like there's an enemy lurking there..."Mary tried to confirm this by spreading sensor energy, but despite her efforts, she found nothing; just a silence in the cold night.It wasn't completely wrong; indeed, there was someone lurking around watching this activity. Utilizing speed and the ability to erase its presence, even Azazel often remained unaware of its presence.Hastily, this masked woman left the area, intending to relay this information to Rudolf.At a considerable distance, she coul
"If it's gotten this far, then there's no time for me to stop here!"Whoosh...With high speed, Azazel's sword accompanied his movement. Piercing the current target with terrifying wounds."Argh..."Blood gushed out endlessly, futile for John to stop it, all based on a void energy that would damage someone's soul.Crash...He pulled back the sword; slowly, the created wounds started to pour out blood endlessly."D-Damn, why can you do this? Weren't you supposed to be easy for us to defeat?""How could lowly creatures like you hope to defeat me? You should be more self-aware in your actions..."He instilled fear into John's body, his eyes seeing Azazel covered in a black cloak with a skull face."Explosion..."With an energy attack rushing towards Azazel, Mary released so much energy.A single touch would result in a massive explosion, Azazel tried to evade it by quickly moving in various directions.Until a distance of 12 meters became the end of this attack, he saw that Mary and Rega
Kaboom...Only a massive explosion rocked the location; one could only wonder what would have happened if they weren't inside the dimensional space created by Mary."So, the power used by that person is incredibly dangerous. Even within this dimensional space, it has caused such a significant impact..." John glanced towards Mary.Every damage inflicted on the dimensional space would transfer to the user, but it was only at a rate of 6 percent, which was very low. However, if the attack used exceeds the dimensional space's endurance, then this rule no longer applies.Regar, who had been saved, still couldn't believe he could breathe. He looked at his two comrades there with the same wide-eyed shock. They were all startled when they learned this terrible fact.Azazel had been watching the three from a distance, his face showing anger at the situation."We can't be here for long! The power used by this man is incredibly dangerous. Sooner or later, he will start launching high-level attac
One thing Jeluis didn't understand, his opponent at the moment wasn't an amateur. He was someone who had engaged in various dangerous battles, even repeatedly devastating regions with his full power.Compared to himself, who only used strength when in danger, Azazel was far more than just a knight in combat.After all, he was the angel of death.Confidently, Jeluis exerted his power to reunite his separated body.Crash...But, at that moment, there was an attack so fast, not just once, but..."No, don't tell me he'll launch consecutive attacks relentlessly. How can I restore my body if he doesn't give me a chance..."Azazel had used a similar pattern before. One way to overwhelm a regeneration user is to launch multiple attacks non-stop and without interruption.His three comrades shuddered at Azazel's ferocity. It wasn't just about speed, but the sword's swing was simply extraordinary.Speed is far beyond the limits of an average person's strength. A speed like that might not be beli
Jeluis still looked on calmly, as if harboring no fear towards the figure of Azazel who exuded an aura of terror."There he is, let's capture him..."And finally, their presence had drawn the attention of the soldiers.Azazel's eyes glanced at the people arriving to capture him, but before that could be done, they had to surround Azazel first."You all won't be able to defeat him here!"Jeluis' words were not heard by the people; they were still too confident that Azazel would be easy to capture.Without much thought, one by one they try to attack Azazel.Crash...And that's what happened next, in movements like light, Azazel slashed each person who tried to approach him.From one body slash down, he moved to another to deliver a fatal blow.It was this speed that caused the soldiers' bodies to be mutilated in a gruesome state."I told you all that you wouldn't be able to..."Swungs...That didn't apply to Jeluis either; with this dangerous speed, Azazel approached him, delivering a d
"How could he do this..."What Jeluis did was far from Nadena's expectations. Just as she almost launched an attack, Jeluis found an opportunity to narrow the distance and then strangle her.Nadena's body was lifted by Jeluis, her throat completely choked by his strong grip."Let me go...""If you want to be released, then I will do it..."With a rough thrust, Nadena's body was thrown towards the wall. Her back felt painful, reducing her mobility to take action."Darn it, if it's like this, I won't be able to defend myself...""You should stay calm and let me capture you..."Nadena was not willing to comply. Despite being exhausted and struggling, she still tried to stand, bravely leaning on her staff to show that she was not a weak girl."Do you still want to face me?"The answer was already confirmed through the magical wand, which seemed to be gathering significant energy, preparing to be released and bring destruction upon Jeluis.Jeluis could only sigh deeply; he couldn't comment
"Will he be okay? I'm sure he will, right?"Nadena's eyes quickly narrowed sharply; she sensed someone approaching the room. No, it wasn't Azazel's energy.Indeed, Azazel's energy would have felt more threatening, but that was precisely what made it easier to recognize.She tried to close her eyes to further identify. This area had specific sensors in place that would make it easier for her to know who was deliberately coming or just passing by.Of course, all this accuracy couldn't be one hundred percent; there had to be thoughtful consideration before assuming it was an enemy's action.But here, it was some people who approached and then stopped in front of the door. She felt three energies standing at the door."What are they going to do? Are they deliberately looking for trouble with me? I thought their actions had gone too far, but what else could I do? There must be a few things to be wary of here..."With thoughts like that, Nadena became sharper in her surroundings, especially
In the end, Nadena didn't find any explanation. Azazel chose to remain silent; during their journey, there was no conversation they could do.Nadena was also worried that Azazel might still consider herself a part of Heiran, which would only complicate matters further.The sturdy man's posture showed no signs of collapsing; his serious eyes remained fixed on the large forest."Can I ask you something..." Nadena couldn't contain these words any longer and deliberately stopped Azazel in his tracks.Azazel didn't turn, just glanced slightly backward, but it didn't give enough time for his steps to stop."What?""Do you trust the masked person from earlier?""No, I never trust anyone, including you..." he replied bluntly.Nadena shuddered at hearing this. Until now, she couldn't believe that Azazel still thought of her as a stranger."Is that so..." However, what was the point of trying to explain this to him? It was certain that her presence here would only be a nuisance."But, so far, t
