Ascension of the Nephilim

Chapter 453 Blood Of The Dead

The group launched their all-out attack on the golems. But it wasn't enough.

The explosions were so strong that the Dark Golem was sent back from the frontal magic attacks. But no signs of it that indicated it was dying were shown.

Dark energy appeared and the form of a vampire ancient appeared!

"Idiots! You really believed that my master would be among you?! He already fled here so that you would kill yourselves! He's been here the whole time! The blood of your allies and your foes fed him!" The voice of Luigi echoed out.

The dark golem revealed a large form.

"Keep shooting! We have to defeat it now!" Menks ordered as he harnessed more and more energy that shot towards the group of golems.

"Die! [Divine Lightning: Second Tribulation]! Northspark sent out his magic and a continuous beam of magic struck the Fire Golem and drilled in finally creating a hole through it.

The undead, Estelle, and Angelic retreated to avoid the raging energy.

"Be on guard!" Angelica stood next to the mages and watched the attack. Should the magic blasts fail, she would charge in to finish the job. Thick force energy gathered around Angelica and her arms and body were showing more scales.

"Hold the attack!" Menks shouted and powerful energy of great pale white appeared as it formed another dark skull and shot towards the golems.

"[Soul Eruption]!" Menks shouted.

BOOM!

The entire area exploded and the different golems began to disintegrate into nothingness.

"Just kidding. He was with you all along." Luigi's laugh echoed again.

Northspark continued to channel his magic to kill the other golems.

But as his beam continued, Northspark suddenly swung his arm and shot the bolt to his allies!

Ress, Meria, and Colin disintegrated upon contact and Laura harnessed her magic to defend.

"AHHH!" Laura poured out all her magic and managed to defend and the magic rushed towards Menks!

The beam passed through them and Estelle did her best to evade but then the Dark Golem sent a powerful dark bolt before it began to disperse into the air.

STAB!

Estelle pulled an undead to block the attack and the undead's body was stabbed through and managed to wound Estelle by a bit.

The beam continued and struck Menks who abandoned his offensive attack to create a defensive attack.

"[Skull Spirit Defense]!" Menks shouted and activated his magic.

BOOM!

"NO!" Angelic roared and punched out.

"No! It's-"

BANG!

Her fist exploded through Northspark's head and instantly killed him.

Menks stumbled down as the powerful beam nearly pierced right through his shield.

And the remaining champions were in pain.

"Four remains! Who is it?!" Luigi laughed.

"It... wasn't Northspark?!" Angelica was shocked.

"A trick! That enemy has been lying since the start! There were many ways to redirect Northspark's hand! Even you could! Be wary of Angelica! It's could be her! That might not be her anymore!"

Menks ordered the undead summons to attack Angelica.

"No! I'm not the Vampire Ancient!" Angelic shouted as she charged toward the foes.

STAB!

BOOM!

Estelle launched herself and even though she had a wound on the stomach she desired to kill Laura.

Laura tried to defend against the attack and used a magic shield, but she was too weak and the stab penetrated through her fire shield and stabbed her.

"It's... you?!" Angelica realized that the hand of Northspark could have been moved by forceful means

Laura was grasping the spear that had lightly stabbed her.

"If we're all going to die...! Then at least let me be to kill you!" Estelle twisted the spear as her rage increased to push the spear lower.

"Ahhhhh!" Laura screamed in fear as the spear started to cause a wound on her chest.

But even then, the battle between Angelica and the undead summons continued.

BANG! BANG!

​ Angelica had no choice but to also fight with her full strength otherwise the wild and deadly suicidal attacks of the undead would claim her.

"Menks! Stop! Attack Estelle!"

"No! Estelle was attacked with such dark energy! That is yet another heightened emotional outrage at many crimes of Laura! You are still the one who was the most suspicious! You could have used a force attack to redirect Northsparks beam!" Menks recalled that Angelica stood next to Northspark before he suddenly turned his arm to ambush everyone.

Menks saw the way the arm of Northspark turned at that moment. Something forced her arm to move and as everyone else was busy with the magic, the most likely candidate was Angelica!

Estelle kept pressing her spear down and Laura was doing her best to gather magic.

"Estelle! Don't kill me! I'm sorry for all those lies!"

"Hahaha... it's useless, Laura! You heard Menks! I am being driven by my rage. And even though I know, I'm sorry, it's the blood of the dead that spills to the ground that will ease my anger! Die!" Estelle pressed down.

Menks gathered more energy and prepared to send his attack as he glanced at the two.

"Blood of the dead..." Menks murmured and grew angry.

Several bone arrows of pale green energy were hovering and Menks was waiting for the right moment to attack.

"Crowd over her!" Menks ordered.

A Champion brandished its strong ax and attacked Angelica. Angelica roared and her force power began to glow.

Green energy appeared as she revealed the Wind Core inside of her. With great speed, she charged forward and slashed the arm of the Champion and took the ax from the hand, and threw it.

"Die, Laura!" Estelle lauged.

SPLAT!

The stabbing sound resounded as the ax struck Estelle on the face.

"Laura!" Angelica shouted to see. But she was too late. Estelle had managed to bury the spear and cause it to erupt and destroy its heart of Laura.

"Die, Vampire Ancient!" Menks shouted and sent his magic arrows out.

STAB! STAB! STAB! STAB!

Angelica had readied her skin to defend but realized that no arrow had landed on her.

All the Commander-level, magical pale arrows that the Necromancer summoned had stabbed on his own undead summons!

"You...!" Angelica was confused.

But Menks glanced at the dead bodies. His expression was turning uglier and uglier and he turned back to Angelica.

"Is it you...? Are you the Vampire Ancient?" Angelica frowned.

"No... It can't be true! We... We were tricked... The oddest death... It was him!" Menks realized it.

"Oddest death?! What do you mean?!"

"The first one to die! Mark! It's all so clear now! I doubted my abilities, but I was sure that Wailen was not the one who inflicted those wounds against Mark! Think! How could Wailen kill Mark?!" Menks asked.

Angelica recalled the manner of Mark's death. When the flashbang from Wailen's bag exploded, Mark's head was beheaded and a large hole, as if he was punched through or stabbed with something occurred. And it was only now when Menks pointed it out that it seemed odd. No one saw how he died or who attacked.

"You mean...!"

"That was because the Vampire Ancient was Mark! He hid in the blood!"

"Hid in the blood?! What do you mean?!"

"I was the first one he deceived...! It's all so clear now! He was weak then and he needed to deceive me!"

"Deceive you? He's been deceiving all of us! What are you talking about?!"

"He tricked me! He made me believe that he is a Vampire Ancient! But he's not!"

"What?! He's not a Vampire Ancient?!"

"No! He used that to set our expectations! But in reality, he is something more! He could either be a blood demon, a succubus, or..."

"A Fallen." A voice continued.

Blood began to seep out of the bodies of an undead Champion. It was one of the first goblin champions that were resurrected! But now, the blood took form and devoured the champion and the figure of a young man stood.
