Blood demon leveling - Chapter 190
With Alexander and Julie closing in on him from both sides the new guardian of the wheel gritted his teeth before he drew his sword, then he yelled
“[Inner strength], [Divine light], [Angel shadow], [Holy armor]!”
A white light declined from above and covered the guardian, when it subsided he appeared with an armor made of pure light as well as another figure by his side, it was a… Well an angel, blond hair, white-feathered wings, and sky blue eyes, the angle grasped empty air and a blade made of light condensed before she turned to Alexander and flapped her wings creating a sonic boom as she accelerated towards him, meanwhile the new guardian turned to Julie and flapped his wings as he charged her with his sword drawn, Julie showed a smile and pulled back slightly while 3 WInd spirits synced their movements with her she muttered
“I have control”
Meanwhile, Mike faced off against the guardian’s harem, well facing off was maybe a big word to use
“I don’t really like killing women though…”
Mike sighed as he slashed through the sword of one of the women and cut her in half from her shoulder to her hip, then he twisted in the air and kicked the upper half of the body towards the archer as he fired off a [Blood boiler] at the corpse making it explode into a bloody mess creating a momentary cover from her accurate arrows, Mike swiped the knife over his left hand and dropped a drop of blood onto the hammer as he threw it at the heavily armored women that were charging at him as he sighed the hammer bit out a chunk of her upper body and head
“Then again I don’t really like killing anyway… It’s more of a habit…”
Mike swayed slightly dodging another arrow from the archer before he looked towards her and showed a slight smile as he flapped his wings closing the distance, she desperately fired off an arrow which Mike deflected with the knife before he twisted around and swung the hammer towards the side of her pretty face which then disintegrated under the heavy blow and sent skull fragments along with various gore, Mike now free of opponents looked towards Julie first and saw her cornering the new guardian, then after letting out a sigh he looked towards Alexander and saw that he had just sent the head of the angle flying before he completely shredded the body with his twin shortswords before scoffing and looking towards Julie that drove the new guardian down towards the ground, Mike showed a smile and descended, Julie’s sword made contact with the light armor and a loud clang sounded out, she frowned slightly as she dodged the return swing before he figure flickered and appeared behind the new guardian where she struck the light armor again, this time she sent the guardian flying and the light armor shattered as he landed heavily on the ground
“Danm it! This is not how it’s supposed to be, Jane! Lina! Helia! Mary! Come here and help me!”
Mike sighed as he watched the guardian fumble about on the ground like a spoiled child, then he muttered
“I had prepared a speech and all that, but at this point, I won’t bother… Say hey to Jane for me”
Mike’s figure flickered before he appeared on the other side of the guardian leaving a cut on his right ear before he muttered
“[Control]”
The soul of the new guardian was forced out as a demon took its place in his body, soon it appeared in the void, there the guardian slowly began wandering the endless void…
Mike sighed before he spoke over the mental network
“Good job, clean up the rest”
Then he turned to look at Julie before he asked
“How should we end this one?”
“Hmm… Oh I have an idea, hey you”
“Yes, Mistress?”
Julie showed a bright smile before she asked
“Can you twist your head 360 degrees for me?”
“Yes, Mistress!”
Then he grabbed the sides of his head and well… Twisted until a horrible sound was heard… He made it about halfway before the dead body fell to the ground with a turd, Mike nodded
“Yep that’s brutal alright”
“Ehehe~ Mike you always know how to praise me~”
Julie hugged Mike’s arm as the screams of the guardian’s army echoed around them
‘A shame Beel told us to kill all the guardians, soul or no soul… Could have used a level 9 servant…’
After the clean up was done, that is to say, nothing was clean in the surrounding area, mangle bodies were splattered all over devoid of blood splatter, it was a surreal sight but one Mike was used to at this point, long gone was the times that he had looked upon the insiders of a human scattered around with mild disgust, now it was part of the norm, organs, bone fragments mixed with brain matter and discarded limbs was all normal now
“I really have lost my mind huh…”
Mike reached up with his hand and felt that a slight smile had formed on his face, this had become his default expression by now, vaguely one could feel something about to crack under the surface of that slight smile
‘…That’s fine too, what was it mom said before she stabbed her eyeball… Oh, right: Life is endless, I will be that end…’
Mike shook his head, Julie that stood next to him could feel something was charging inside Mike and was a little concerned, though she hid it behind her smile, Mike called out as soon as the troops had gathered around him
“Beel, we’re done here”
A few moments passed before Beel’s voice was heard
“Okay, I’ll bring you back now… One moment, this might feel weird”
Mike felt his sense of balance lose its footing before his surroundings blurred and he was back in the Wind spirit village he sighed before he turned around and saw Beel walking over and greeted her
“Hey Beel”
Beel looked at Mike for a few moments before she sighed and spoke out loud
“Oh, so that time has come…”
“What?”
“I’ll tell you later Mike, for now, I’ll introduce you to someone, come over here Telia”
“Yes, Mistress!”
Telia ran over and kneeled down on the spot, Mike looked at her then at Beel that had a smile on her face before she spoke or rather asked
“What’s the first thing you need to prepare for an invasion?”
Mike thought for a moment before he spoke
“Troops, no… Supplies”
Then he looked at Telia before he nodded
“So that’s how it is”
Beel showed a smile
“I knew you would get it, Mike, that’s what the Ravi tribe is, they are supplies we sent ahead for the invasion of this plane when she said that they have no souls it’s true, they’re empty vessels, this is the #4935 ‘Telia’, that’s how many times she has been reborn, or would it be better to say reincarnated? Anyway that’s what they are, use them as you see fit”
Mike nodded, it was clear to him now, Telia and the rest of the Ravi tribe was like a lockbox dropped from the air that would then land behind enemy lines the enemy would be able to use it to limited capacity, but only when friendlies arrived would it open and show its true potential and aid the war effort
“Then… Are there any more ‘supplies’ scattered around the prime worlds?”
Beel nodded
“We sent ahead some thousand groups of handcrafted tribes or races who all were empty vessels ready to serve… Though I can’t be sure how many survived to this day”
“I see…”
Mike nodded before he called out
“Nicolai, Lucy come over here and meet Beel”
Nicolai and Lucy walked over accompanied by Mel, the two of them kneeled down and spoke in unison
“Lady Beel”
Beel showed a smile before she looked them over, the two trembled slightly under her gaze before she spoke
“Excellent seedlings, Nice find Mike”
Mike nodded
“I only found Nicolai though, Lucy is Mel’s find and treasure”
“I see, you have chosen a fine mate Mel”
“Thank you, Lady Beel… Forgive me for asking, but you don’t think it’s… Unnatural?”
Beel shook her head and spoke
“No, not at all… Love is not unique to this plane of existence but it’s far more widespread on this plane than any I’ve seen before… As they say: Love takes all forms”
Mel lowered her head as she spoke somewhat emotionally
“Thank you, Lady Beel”
Soon evening arrived, Mike was about to head to bed when he received a mental message from Beel that called him to the garden, he quickly left his and Julie’s room and soon arrived in the garden where he found Beel sitting in front of the flower bed, Mike walked over and sat down next to her, he chose to remain silent as the two of them looked at the flowers in front of them under the moonlight, soon Beel spoke
“You have doubts Mike”
Mike remained silent for a bit before he eventually nodded and admitted it
“Yes, I do…”
“I know you mean no disrespect by it… And I’ll give you some time to figure out those doubts, off you go”
Beel twirled her finger and a portal opened and swallowed Mike before it closed again, Beel sighed before she spoke to the flowers in front of her
“It would be good if he makes up his mind soon… Some time at home will help him, isn’t that right my small cuties?”
The flowers fertilized by human corpses didn’t answer, they only swayed slightly in the wind
