Worldly Overlord - Chapter 50

Devon pressed his other hand on the sovereign hand which was still strangling his neck in an attempt to pull it off him, but all was in vain due to the strong grip exerted by the sovereign.

“Am I not doing the world a favor by destroying someone like you.” The sovereign stated, still brimming with intense killing intent.

The sovereign pulled out the demon slayer katana, seeing there wasn’t any reply from Devon. He was definitely enraged by Devon’s action.

Devon felt like his whole body was paralyzed, but the only part he could move was his hands. Devon’s face changed when he saw the demon slayer katana penetrating through his body.

The sovereign slowly pierced the katana into Devon’s body. He then continued pushing the katana through Devon’s body till the weapon was fully in him as it came out of his back.

“Arghhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!” Devon roared.

The demon slayer was well known for absorbing his victim’s blood. But when it entered Devon’s body, none of that appeared. A few seconds after, the strangest thing of all happened.

“Hahahahahahaha!!!….. That’s tickling.” Devon, who shouted earlier, began laughing like a maniac.

The sovereign seemed to have recalled something, he removed the weapon he inserted, but he still didn’t let go of his hand which was on Devon’s neck.

“A legacy weapon would never harm its creator. How could I have forgotten,” He said then tapping his forehead.

Finally, he let go of Devon’s neck, making the youth fall to the ground. Devon stood up right after the fall, he stared at the large hole in his abdomen.

The one which was created by the demon slayer katana, however, in the blink of an eye the large hole was already closing up rapidly and after a few seconds, it disappeared.

Devon couldn’t hide the shock in his face at how terrifying his regeneration ability was. There wasn’t even any scar left behind.

The sovereign, who was already a few meters away from Devon, varnished from where he was and reappeared at Devon’s front once again.

“Puchi.” Devon spat out blood and his already healed abdomen became wounded once again.

This was a fatal damage, seeing how blood was gushing out from his abdomen like a water pipe. To be honest, even Devon’s regeneration ability would find it difficult to cover something this severe over a short period.

That severe hit that struck Devon was delivered by the sovereign. This time around, his right hand was deeply rooted inside Devon’s abdomen.

His hand wasn’t idle as they began twisting Devon’s intestine. After a while, he pulled his hand out of Devon’s abdomen, giving the youth some chance to recover.

He then attacked, punching Devon’s rib cage, seeing that Devon had left his guard open.

Devon flew, crashing upon one of the mountains on his left side. The injury on his abdomen had healed up once again but unlike last time the situation this time around wasn’t good.

Devon’s eyes were shut closed, blood was beginning to drip out of his mouth while his cloth was torn severely. His breathing also became distorted in the process.

His Achilles gold hair was beginning to change its color to white. The process of the change was very slow, as a strand took forty-five seconds to change from gold to white.

The sovereign stared at the scene, he then licked his lips as his plan was successful.

A fierce aura blasted out of Devon’s body, the already disturbed wind in the environment became more turbulent. While Devon’s eyes were still closed the entire time, the fierce aura had completely leveled all the mountains in the surrounding.

The demon slayer katana which was in the sovereign left hand flew away from him, towards Devon’s direction. It then stood, hovering in the air right at Devon’s front.

If before the katana was a beast asleep, right now it had fully awoken and was ready to unleash its full wrath on the world.

Without being told what to do, the destructive weapon launched itself but not at the sovereign, instead, It flew towards the scene ahead.

The slaughtering began……..

“Arghhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!” sounds of men and women in agony could be heard in different parts of the cities.

The situation changed completely, seeing how the slaughterers became slaughtered.

The speed at which the demon slayer Katana was killing was frightening. Powerhouse of different levels were annihilated as if they were nothing. They were in no doubt that the weapon had no limitation.

When the destruction was done, the weapon flew back to Devon, and it returned to its original, dull state.

“A God such as yourself bullying a kid isn’t that pathetic,” Devon said in a very cold voice.

The sovereign brought out a spear with a striking resemblance to the own his halo was holding. “So you finally decided to reveal yourself.”

“If bullying the kid is going to lead to your extermination, then I don’t mind stooping low to that extent.” The sovereign stated.

Devon’s eyes were still closed, “Hahahahaha…… It is a long I’ve heard those words from someone. So, you think you can kill me?”

A grin appeared on the sovereign’s face, seeing how he was being mocked.

He tightened his grip on the spear, dashing towards Devon. He swung the spear at his target neck, who in return just shifted one step to the other side.

The sovereign didn’t intend to give up anytime soon as he continued attacking Devon with the spear, but each time he managed to get closer the youth always found a way to dodge the attack.

“Stone of judgment.”

“Sword of judgment.”

“Arrow of judgment.”

“Spear of eradication.” The sovereign said before he then began gasping heavily for breath.

This attack wasn’t physical, instead, it was an attack of the soul meaning it was completely invisible to the naked eye.

Soul attacks were great consumers of celestial energy. Due to how much impact it could cause on its target, it shouldn’t come as a surprise. A powerhouse who specializes in soul technique and ability was very unique and extremely powerful.

In a mansion, if artifact users were guaranteed to be tenants, then the soul powerhouse were the landlords.

Unlike physical attacks that could be dodged, they were absolutely no way of dodging a soul attack. Soul attacks were horrifying.

“Puff.”

Though the attack was invisible, that didn’t stop it from creating severe damages to the surroundings.

Devon yawned then stretched his body as if the whole attack was of no meaning to him. He continued humiliating the sovereign as his eyes were still closed.

“How come?…. Even soul attack isn’t working on him. What the hell is this..” the sovereign said, his body began shaking from fright.
