This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

“Fire!” Asmond pointed his sword at the Demon Lord.

Bullets were fired and flew past Asmond and his team. They looked at the Demon Lord standing still and letting himself be showered by bullets, explosives, and even missiles. The Demon Lord took them all like it was nothing, and the worst part was his armor was unscathed by all of them.

“It’s no use! Artilleries aren’t going to affect him. We should fight him with our weapons and it’s the only way,” Silas said as he held his spear.

“Arum, gather some information about the other Districts. Especially District 3. We will try and gather some information about this Demon Lord first and you can join us when you gathered all the information,” Asmond kept his eyes on the Demon Lord.

Arum nodded with understanding and ran to the back to ask the operator about the situation in the other Districts.

Asmond activated his [Nemesis] skill and looked at how big his stats had become. He was surprised when his [Body Enhancement] level became 18. It was similar to when he tried to copy Sven’s stats. He then ordered Rufus and Silas to follow him and try to defeat the Demon Lord on their own.

Asmond boosted his speed with wind magic and lit the sword with fire magic. He swung his sword at the Demon Lord, but the Demon Lord blocked with his sword.

Their sword clashed and when Asmond tried to strengthen the flame on his sword, it got extinguished instead. His fire was inferior to the ice sword that the Demon Lord used. But even so, Asmond’s sword was stronger than the ice sword and made a big crack in the Demon Lord’s sword.

Asmond pushed the Demon Lord back and then took a few steps back to prepare for the next move.

“Looks like we have found one of his weaknesses,” Silas said

“If my sword can break his sword that easily, your spear and Rufus’ sword can do the same. Let’s play it carefully as always,” Asmond replied as he readied his stance.

Rufus and Silas nodded with understanding and were ready to follow Asmond’s command.

(At District 3, in front of the Mahazael Tower)

Roxanne and Glen with the rest of the Fraternity Association members were staring at a skeleton demon as black and shiny as tar with broken wings on his back and turned them into ornaments that decorated his back. A Demon Lord with very long arms that touched the ground with no legs and floated in front of the Mahazael Tower.

“We have received a report from District Two that Asmond and the others are dealing with a Demon Lord right now!” Glen said.

“A Demon lord, huh? This is going to be a hard one for us without Asmond. But, with these Artifacts that Mykel gifted to us, we should be able to give this Demon Lord a good fight,” Roxanne said as she unsheathed her sword.

[Ring of Rejuvenation], [Ring of Stamina], [Bracelet of Two-Handed], and [Necklace of Champion]. All of those Artifacts were worn by Roxanne, and the last two Artifacts made her four times stronger than her original power.

“Fire!” Roxanne pointed her sword at the Demon Lord.

The artilleries bombarded the Demon Lord with bullets, but it was the same as what happened to the Demon Lord in District 2. The Demon Lord was unscathed by the explosion and the piercing bullet. The Demon Lord then raised his hands and his shadow expanded and moved so quickly toward them.

“Fall back! Don’t let that thing touch you!” Roxanne said as she took a step back.

Everyone ran to the back, even Roxanne ordered the soldiers to fall back because she didn’t know what that shadow thingy was capable of. They all abandoned their posts and ran away to save themselves while Roxanne was at the far back to observe.

Roxanne looked at the shadow that lurked on the ground, and when the shadow went under the tank’s body, it swallowed the tank and pulled it into the ground. She didn’t know what just had happened, but by looking at how easy it was for a massive tank to get sucked into the ground, she knew it was dangerous.

“What should we do?! We can’t even approach him if it’s like this!” Glen shouted as he looked back at Roxanne.

“I don’t fucking know! Do you think I have fought this demon before?!” Roxanne replied as she shouted back at him and looked at all the artilleries that got swallowed into a shadow. “Let’s keep running and hope there’s a maximum range of that shadow of his!” Roxanne continued and focused on running away with Glen.

While they were running away back to the military base, they saw fighter jets fly passed them. They all cheered as they turned around to look at the fighter jets that showered the Demon Lord with big caliber bullets and powerful missiles.

“Keep moving! The shadow isn’t stopping or you will get swallowed by it!” Roxanne shouted at the soldiers.

“Is that the maximum range?” Glen asked as he looked down at the ground from above the wall.

“No, I don’t think that’s the case,” Roxanne answered as she looked to her left and right. She saw giant searchlights that beamed at the ground and decided to take one and point it at the shadow. “I think a bright light scares the shadows. I mean, a shadow won’t exist if it gets exposed to the light,” Roxanne explained as she moved the searchlight around and made the shadow move away from the exposed ground.

“Ah, I see. With this current sky, shadows can lurk freely since there’s no sunlight. Now that we know, we can try to strike that Demon Lord with this and see what kind of reaction it will make,” Glen said as he looked at the dark red sky.

Roxanne talked with the General and told him about the current situation. The General understood and immediately sent dozens of helicopters that were equipped with strong searchlights. They were going to guide Roxanne and her team to the Mahazael Tower.

“Alright! The preparation is complete. Let’s move!” Roxanne said as the soldiers reopened the gate.

They all marched slowly and carefully as the helicopters beamed at them with light from the sky. The shadow couldn’t get near them, but some of the Awakeners were still scared of it. Roxanne then looked over her shoulder and glanced at the group of Awakeners that didn’t even show any fear on their faces.

“You were observing them as well? They’re indeed fearless and that makes them feel inhuman,” Glen whispered to Roxanne’s ear. “This is a good chance to send them off and see what they’re capable of,” Glen continued as he glanced at them.

“Yes, that’s what I’m planning to do since Asmond didn’t want to do it. Let’s see what’s underneath those faces and what’s inside their bodies,” Roxanne replied and nodded her head in agreement.

“Miss Roxanne! The General has a message for you!” A man’s voice was coming from the radio on her chest. “District Four and District Five have been occupied by demons! They’re coming to District Three and they’re coming fast!” He continued.

Roxanne and Glen looked at each other with their eyes wide open.

“We can’t waste our time here,” Roxanne said quietly. “Everyone! We have to move fast and defeat the Demon Lord now! We have a few guests coming toward us,” Roxanne continued.

They all nodded and started running to the Mahazael Tower with the helicopters covering them from above.

“Why the Demon Lord in District Five is coming this way?! Isn’t District Six the closest one?” Glen ran next to Roxanne.

(At the border of District 6 and District 5)

“It’s no fun, right? Alpha? Who would have thought a Demon Lord would be scared of us,” Rozan asked as he floated in the sky with all his dragons behind him.

“Are you seriously going to ask why? You bring a fucking mountain with you,” Aurea said as she floated in the air next to Rozan and looked at the whole mountain floating above them. “Even your dragons are terrified and didn’t want to fly below it,” Aurea continued.

“I’m just testing my new skills. I couldn’t do it since Sven and the others took care of Azrael and Samael on their own,” Rozan answered as he looked at his [Geokinesis], [Telekinesis], and [Brainstorm] skills.
