Sacrifice: Time of Mine - Chapter 323

Sheran looked at Darea with eyes that were filled with complicated emotions.

“What are you all doing?”

It was a casual question but when the generals heard this, they felt like judgment has arrived.

Truly, what are they doing?

Three of them have already died: Hearoid, Torie Gando, and Jmsdwefshiuwen. If Darea didn’t arrive, are they sure that no more will perish.

“I… I greatly apologize, Great Ruler. I am responsible for this.” Hanmer said.

Even though he was a hundred times bigger than Darea, he felt so little. They felt joy when they knew that she had succeeded so fast, however, that joy soon vanished when they realized that they had failed her.

Darea looked around and figured out that there are countless deaths that occurred here. She no longer looked at her Generals, she just domineeringly said;

“Let me handle and avenge the three.”

“Yes, Great Ruler.” the other six could only bow and returned to their normal form. They went around, taking the corpses of their comrades as if the battle had already ended.

They knew that Darea has already entered Rank Eses. Even if the dragon there was already experienced for being Rank Es and is at her peak health and performance, there was nothing to worry about.

“Sheran, I see that you’re the one responsible for the deaths of my generals and also, that wolf. But since we were once friends, let me deal with you the last.”

Darea disappeared, shocking everyone there.

“This is bad…” Old Maytan gritted his teeth and knew that it was the end for them. He didn’t expect all of this to happen. He had placed too much trust in Sheran. Yes, they were already aware that these Apexial Beasts outnumbered them. However, if they escaped and take their time to regroup, by that time, this massive army has already taken millions of lives, further feeding the future God of Death.

While Old Maytan was lamenting and regretting his decision, Darea was back with two people on each of her hands.

She let them see their faces first, they were Matriarch Quiare and Elder Khor. They have faces of extreme fear before their heads were shattered into a bloody mess.

Although there were no people there who have seen much worse gore in their life, who did Darea just killed with the grip of her hands? They were Rank Es Elementalist for fuck’s sake!

Even Hanmer had to use his World Crusher and smash it a dozen times before killing a full-fledged Rank Es.

Darea then pointed her finger, which was clean and free of blood even though she just soaked those hands in people’s brains, towards Old Maytan.

The old man could only widen his eyes before an icy spear was trusted out from Darea’s fingertips. A bright blue light, akin to a comet, streaked onto the air. Old Maytan’s life flashed before him but fortunately, Sheran was able to block it with her wings.

This ice spear’s thrum echoed throughout the lands and Shiena’s crossed wings were easily pierced. The spear continued to her arms and only stopped when it reached her bones.

‘A simple gesture of her is able to pierce through my dragon scale, the toughest material in all of Flasse!’

Being cornered, Sheran only opened her mouth once again and hope that if she increased her firepower, things will change.

A flame that was big enough to devour an entire city was released with the drop of the dragon’s jaw.

‘She’s still holding back earlier? No… she’s pushing her limits.’ Hanmer witnessed this and was startled.

However, Darea only needed to wave her hand and-

Swoosh*

Half of the flame vanished while a cool wind that became a blizzard came, overpowering the heat.

“If it was before, I would’ve found defending myself from that flame difficult, but now, it’s useless.”

Darea whispered when a light flashed behind her. It was faster than her reaction even for her level. But when this light materialized in a wolf that bit her back, Cojier’s fangs were shattered in countless pieces.

Cojier couldn’t believe that his powerful jaw did no damage to her. His neck was then grabbed.

It should be remembered that Dogun Mo once heavily hammered his fists over him and only did little damage. This time, Darea only tightened her grip and Crack*

“Cojier!” Old Maytan felt a sting in his head when he saw the wolf lifelessly dropped onto the ground.

“N-no! No, no…! What have you done!?”

Tears came streaking down from the old man’s eyes. If he was still able to hold himself from Gamon’s death, this time, he cried unrestrainedly.

While tears gushed out of his pitiful eyes, they lit up at the same time. A violent surge of World Energy surrounded him, shocking Sheran who thought he was already at the edge of his life.

‘Is he burning up his life force!?’ she thought. However, looking at the rage in the old man’s eyes that she once saw as a sage, calm in every moment, she knew she didn’t have it in her to stop him.

Sheran moved to the side as powerful vortices of energy surfaced from nothing. Inwardly, she hopes that Old Maytan will force Darea back so that others’ deaths would no be in vain. As long as they survive this, there is still a chance next time.

Even the other Apexial Beasts got scared to get close to one of these vortices as they felt that it will rip them apart if they did.

“Why are there such monsters here!?” Dogun Mo roared as he retreated.

But to their surprise and Sheran’s disappointment, Darea manipulated Old Maytan’s uncontrolled World Energy, making him self-destruct instead.

In front of all eyes, the legend of the Might of Torge was torn to pieces by his own element.

In just a matter of moments, Darea had slaughtered, not only Rank Es Elementalists but also legendary figures that were renowned all over the continent of Arcansas without even breaking much sweat.
