Science/Magic - Chapter 513: Two Battlefields
The Saint of the Church of Slaughter stood in front of Bloed and the girls, he looked at them with a gentle smile that did not carry the slightest killing intent.
However, the shadows squirming violently below him exuded so much malice that a normal person would have become crazy straight away.
“Saint of the Church of Slaughter,” Bloed growled. “As expected, your church was behind this.”
“You have something that is ours. We only want it back.”
“The Heart is not yours! It belongs to my people!” Elwha growled angrily.
“Really? I was sure it was ours, though. Well, it doesn’t matter. Even if the Heart is not ours, it’s going to be ours soon enough.”
“In your dreams!”
“Calm down, Elwha.” Bloed held the elf princess’s arm to help her to calm down. At the same time, he used Oculus to observe the surroundings.
He already expected it, but the Saint of Slaughter did not come alone.
After he showed himself, dozens of magic beasts appeared in Oculus’s range, surrounding Bloed’s group.
The weakest of these beasts was at the B-Rank, with several A-Rank magic beasts and two that had reached the demigod realm.
It was a terrifying lineup.
“You really overestimate us. To bring so many monsters just for us.”
“No, no, no, I don’t dare to underestimate you.” The Saint of Slaughter spoke with exaggerated gestures. “I already suffered a loss twice after underestimating you. I won’t make the same mistake again.”
“Is it so?” Bloed narrowed his eyes. At the same time, he communicated with Regina.
The situation seemed hopeless, but if they could endure until Regina arrived, then the situation would be turned around.
But at that moment, Regina’s solemn voice sounded in his mind.
[Master, I have a small problem here.]
‘Hmm?’
[The Church of the Sun God appeared, and the Sun God performed god’s descent. He is in front of me.]
Bloed’s expression changed.
“It looks like you already got the news.” The Saint of Slaughter’s smile became bigger. “I told you, I won’t make the same mistake again. That woman was the main reason I failed the previous two times, so this time, I waited until the Sun God appeared just to make sure that she can’t come to help you.”
“… You really think highly of us,” Bloed spoke calmly, but his mind was moving at full speed trying to think of a plan.
He knew that this was one of the biggest crises he had faced.
But the Saint of Slaughter did not plan to give him time to think.
“Give me the Heart, boy. If you do, I promise to give you a painless death.” He said in an ice-cold tone
Bloed did not reply and instead looked at Liu Ying, Eres, and Elwha.
Using his gaze, he asked for their opinion.
The three girls nodded.
Their meaning was clear.
They were going to fight.
Bloed took a deep breath to calm down, then, he stared at the Saint of Slaughter indifferently.
“If you want the Heart, then come and get it.”
The lips of the Saint of Slaughter curved up into a grin.
“Gladly.”
In the next instant, the shadows below him surged up.
At the same time, countless monsters charged toward Bloed’s group.
…
Regina’s expression was ugly.
She was floating in the sky with countless energy weapons surrounding her. A pair of energy wings had appeared on her back, and her body was covered in a translucid suit of armor.
It was her Valkyrie armament, [Krigsrustning].
Right now, she was in her strongest state.
But despite that, she was not sure she could win against the man in front of her.
[Give me the Heart, or die.] The man said, and his voice seemed to resound in her mind.
Regina could not see his features, only flames. His entire body was covered in blinding flames that burned everything around him.
He was the Sun God.
And now, he was the obstacle stopping her from protecting her master.
“I already told you, I don’t have the Heart.”
[I don’t believe you.] The flaming man spoke indifferently. [And even if you don’t have it, you should know where it is.]
Regina furrowed her brows. The Sun God was right.
However, there was no way she was going to tell him the location of the Heart. That was where her master was.
Regina knew that if this man learned that her master was holding the Heart, he would not hesitate to kill him to get it.
[It looks like you won’t tell me where it is.] The Sun God understood her thoughts and nodded expressionlessly. [Very well, I will have to take your soul out and find the answer myself.]
With these words, the flames became hotter and brighter.
It was as though a second sun appeared in the sky. But unlike the warm light of the original sun, this second sun was filled with violent and raging flames.
[Die.]
The Sun God spoke, and flames rained on Regina.
The flames were like a flood that wanted to burn everything. They converged on Regina, incinerating dozens of kilometers of forest in the process.
But strangely, the Sun God frowned.
[She was not injured?]
From the flames, a figure walked out nonchalantly.
She held an energy sword in her hand that she used to cut the flames into two. Then, she pointed it to the Sun God.
“Move.” She spoke coldly.
[Arrogant mortal.]
“Move, or I’m going to kill you.”
The Sun God fell silent. But then, he chuckled.
However, his chuckle was filled with a burning rage that made the atmosphere tremble.
[It has been a long time since a mortal dared to threaten me.]
Extending his hand, he summoned a greatsword made of flames.
Then, he pointed the greatsword at Regina.
[Fine, show me how you plan to kill me.]
