"Argh…"
Berith let out a painful scream for the first time as his body was constantly being shocked by electricity, releasing 1.5 Gigajoules of energy into his body.
Third-degree burns appeared all over his body and Berith's legs shook involuntarily while a figure made a speedy landing beside Commander Curtis.
"Vice President!" Curtis greeted him with a salute before glancing at the sky. The seal wasn't completed but at the very least, the gate was closed and no wisps of smoke exited it. Chains were all over it, suppressing it completely.
As the supreme commander was in control of maintaining the seal due to dire circumstances, the other supreme realm expert slowly descended onto the ground.
Meanwhile, Berith hatefully looked at Ramiel, the one who hurt him to this extent despite the fact that he is still at peak rank 8. "You… bas…"
Ramiel didn't give him the chance to curse too. As soon as he landed, he dashed forward with lightning sparks dancing all over his body.
In just a couple of seconds, Ramiel's fist was already in contact with Berith's cheek and the latter flew in the air.
Ramiel wasn't done with his onslaught yet. While Berith's body was still in mid-air, Ramiel already delivered more than a dozen punches and kicks with each one imbued with lightning energy, slightly paralyzing Berith every time and interfering with his recovery rate.
By the time the four-foot President landed on the ground, Berith looked like he was already defeated. He lay motionlessly on the ground. He was just on the brink of his death and his eyes were blankly staring at the sky.
Ramiel didn't intend to give any opportunity for the enemy to fight back. He didn't bother to talk about anything and went on unleashing his strongest soul skill.
The clouds rumbled for a few seconds before a scarlet-colored lightning bolt descended onto the ground and struck the fallen angel, turning him into ash in an instant.
Staring at the ash, Ramiel mumbled, "If only I knew you were this easy to defeat, I wouldn't have bothered wasting so much time on the seal. Because of our misjudgment, we lost three commanders today."
"No, something is wrong, Ramiel," commented President Cornelius upon hearing those words. As Ramiel turned around in confusion, Cornelius pointed at the few metal golems that are falling one after another. "If the controller died, then, the puppets should usually fall at the same time, not even with a one-second gap."
"You are overthinking too much, Cornelius. The enemies are dead including their boss. Soon, the gate will also disappear. Let's focus on the important matters." Ramiel's priorities are on the future of their organization with their force facing heavy losses.
After compensating the families of these heroes who died in battle, there should be new appointments of the commanders and other ranking officers, an increase in the recruitment of elite Arcana Masters, etc… His mind was occupied with those thoughts and he doesn't want to waste his time on the strange circumstances.
However, the dwarven-looking president had different thoughts. He had a strong feeling that the battle might not be over. He stayed vigilant and fixed his eyes on the sky while the ranking officers started collecting the dead bodies. Perhaps, he can only relax once the gate disappears.
But, just five-six seconds later, they heard the sonic boom behind them.
"Hmm?" Cornelius and Ramiel glanced in the direction of the source. They spotted Azzy charging toward them at his fastest speed.
Within a second, he was already there but since he made a sudden action, they were alerted and subconsciously tried to defend against him. Not to mention, their superior eyesight made them not only clearly see his movements but also his pitch-black eyes.
Because Berith had once hypnotized the commander of the General division, it might be possible that the demon took control of Azzy's mind before he died and tried to ambush them.
Little did they expect that instead of facing an attack from Azzy, daggers of demonic energy will pierce the bodies of Ramiel and Cornelius at the same time.
Azzy was forced to halt his footsteps as Berith's figure materializes before Azzy as those two injured experts collapse onto the ground without being able to resist the demonic energy.
"You…" Ramiel's eyes widened in shock as he saw the guy alive and well when he was supposed to die. Cornelius was also under the same impression.
Meanwhile, the fallen angel bursts out into laughter, "Hahahaha, just how foolish are you humans? Don't you ever hear of my name before? I'm a high-level immortal demon (rank-11, equivalent of a junior god).
Even if I was able to use 5-10% of my maximum strength in this avatar, how do you lot even think that you have the chance to kill me?
The one that is destroyed is just a clone of mine that has a minute of my strength. To defeat this avatar of mine, even an average demigod would fail, much less 9-star realm trash like you..."
As the look of helplessness appeared on the faces of Cornelius and Ramiel, the fallen angel shifted his attention to Azzy who delivered himself to his doorstep, "However, I must say that you are quite different from this lot. I really want to dissect your soul orb and see what kind of secrets you hold. What is your name, kid?"
Trying his best to stay calm, Azzy answered, "nice bluff, Berith. However, I know that you cannot use the entire power that is available for you to use. The moment your displayed power crosses the threshold of a supreme being and enters the demigod realm, Gaia will have the right to interfere. The Celestial Empire will send its warrior to erase your avatar.
It is also the reason why you hide in the shadow of your clone and tried to ambush them using as minimum strength as possible."
Azzy knows all of these because the Reaper told him earlier. It was also the reason he dared to rush forward and face the demon. Once again, Azzy grabbed the attention by acting while the others had a look of fear on their faces with their top bosses on the ground.
"Ho! You know the cosmic matters too? Now, I'm even more intrigued." Berith didn't feel any alarmed by his words and instead, his smile only grew wider. He was very confident that Azzy cannot defeat him with his meager 7-star soul realm strength when even supreme realm experts fell to his attack.
As a result, the teenager decided to take advantage of the fact that the enemy is underestimating him and went on unleashing his strongest combo to kill him at once.
"Skill card: Gravity suppression"
He sneakily threw the skill card on the ground and activated it, increasing the gravitation pressure on the battlefield by hundred times for the next five minutes.
The huge pressure caused everyone (allies and the enemy alike) to crash onto the ground. While the three legendary realm experts on the field were almost trying to resist the effect of the 100x gravity, a smirk appeared on Berith's face as he spoke, "Do you think this can restrict my movements? At Hell, the gravitational force is even higher, I only need a bit of time to… Argh…"
"Soul skill: Claws of Death"
A black-colored portal appeared behind Berith and a large pair of human hands with claws exited them, piercing his chest.
"I'm not done yet, Berith…"
