Legendary Guardian - Volume 3 Chapter 362 362
The thought of leaving this place they have sworn to protect was a nightmare. They couldn’t wrap their heads around this information and for some reason, they felt like refusing but they knew these rules were created to protect mortals from god level beings like themselves. Looking around and seeing how much damage they caused to the continent even though they are yet to reach the demigod realm, Derik and Cyrus knew that they would destroy the continent and its inhabitants if they should fight here when they reach the demigod realm.
But this wasn’t the most important question on their mind right now. All they wished to know at this moment was how they were able to rise so fast! In their opinion, it would at least take them about two years or more to break through to the demigod realm.
So how did this happen so fast?
At this moment, images of all their actions till this point flashed through their minds and they finally realized what went wrong! Not only did they destroy the powerless human settlement which had tens of thousands of people residing in it but they also caused the destruction of the orc settlement which had hundreds of thousands of orcs of different realms residing in it as well. At this point, they realized that their body had been pulling in the souls of all those that died around them. They were like two walking black holes and even without consciously trying, they kept consuming the souls of all those who died around them.
“So that’s how it happened” Cyrus said with a dejected look on his face.
“We got careless!” Derik gritted his teeth while clenching his fist.
Hearing them speak like this wasn’t enough to stun Demos and Samael. They could feel their emotions so they understood how these two felt. Leaving the continent, a place they had sworn to protect will be pretty difficult for them, especially since all the invaders are currently moving towards the continent since the other continents have been conquered.
“Now is not the time to grieve. You need to set things straight in the empire choose your successors, strengthen your sects, bl.u.s.ter the empire’s defenses You don’t have time for this” Samael growled.
“Samael is right Now you two are about to reach the demigod realm, the target on your back will be removed New god candidates in the demigod realm will always be more powerful than even we guardian spirits not to talk of mere overseers You need to bring up the other new god candidates to speed. They need to be able to protect themselves from those who would wish to take their place as new god candidates” Demos explained.
Hearing this Derik and Cyrus could only calm down and let go of it. At this point, there is no turning back! The least they could do right now is to prepare for the worst.
“It’s not over! Do you hear me! It’s not over yet! I will make sure to end both of you!” The orc overseer roared in anger.
Its eyes were still scorching red and a violent green aura kept diffusing from its body but even then Derik and Cyrus didn’t feel threatened.
They were more enraged than afraid!
They are the reason hundreds of thousands of orcs and some of their chieftains died so the overseer’s actions were understandable. Honestly, Derik and Cyrus hoped to eliminate the overseer before it could exert revenge on them, and considering their current situation, once they make it to the Demigod realm, the overseer won’t be able to harm them anymore. Its next target will be the empire.
This is something, Derik and Cyrus cannot overlook.
“Hahahaha! It’s not over? And who are you to decide that” Cyrus laughed out loud.
“You got your ass whooped by gold realm masters and now you think you can spit out any crap that slithers up your brain It’s five hundred years too early for you to challenge us, little overseer Just wait till our breakthrough is complete Once we reach the demigod realm let’s see how you intend to harm us” Derik sneered.
Hearing their remarks, the other overseers of the various races felt like spitting out blood out of anger. They could tell Derik and Cyrus were in the process of reaching the demigod realm but even then, they were still gold realm masters at the moment. Cursing at the orc overseer recklessly meant they were not afraid that it may try to kill them before they can breakthrough.
In their opinion, since Derik and Cyrus dared to call the orc overseer who is on par with them weak, Derik and Cyrus were indirectly calling them weak as well. As much as they would love to walk over there and rip the life and death mage apart, they could feel the intense aura surpassing that of a mere demigod residing in Demos, while they couldn’t feel Samael’s presence at all, terrifying them even more. The only time they have felt this way in the past is when they are in the presence of their creators, the old gods. This means that Samael was at least in the god realm.
Moreover, while Derik and Cyrus were preparing to clash with the orc overseer, the aura the two diffused were far greater than what the orc overseer could release. These other overseers were pretty sure if they let the fight continue, the orc overseer will be killed in such a battle. These Demigods couldn’t explain how Derik and Cyrus’ power level rose so high in such a short time and they were not willing to find out either.
“You!” the orc overseer felt like spitting out blood due to anger.
It was just a few moments away from pouncing on Derik and Cyrus, so the other demigods had to retrain it and vanish, but only after shooting Derik and Cyrus a final glance.
“Jackpot” Cyrus chuckled lightly.
“It had to be done we will soon have a crazy overseer coming for us” Derik sighed.
“Don’t look gloomy this will be fun!” Cyrus declared.
