146 Chapter 146: Derik is inferior to no one

Derik laughed hysterically as he shot forward like a comet, dashing into the scorching yellow sun that was descending on him fearlessly. At this point, his body was scorching red and the smell of burning flesh filled the air but it didn't stop the chilling laughter of the death mage.

"Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha!" Derik laughed as stormed forward, bulldozing through the blazing aura that surrounded Kaido, ultimately reaching him in just a few seconds.

Boooom!!!

The scorching aura instantly vanished as Derik's fist smashed into Kaido's face sending him flying a few meters back. Hot red blood slid down his nostrils and before he could recover, Derik's figure flashed and appeared right in front of him

Boooom!!!

Another punch smashed into the already bloodied face, sending the guardian knight with the sun power crashing into a nearby building.

All the silver realm warriors and mages on the gate watched with their jaws dropped and their minds blank.

How could this happen?

How can a mage be able to beat the crap out of a guardian Knight, who is a whole realm above him?

Impossible!

"Monster! Monster!!!" A woman in a mage's robe fell on her knees, screaming.

Their fear for Derik rose to a whole new level, thereby rising Derik's power to a whole new level. Feeding off the despair from the thousands of souls in his domain and the fear of more than five hundred silver realm warriors and mages standing atop the massive wall coupled with his broken limiters, Derik's power instantly reached the upper limit of the silver realm, threatening to break into the low grade of the gold realm.

With this, Derik could tell that he needed a slight boost so as to push himself into the gold realm and become a true master comparable to Kaido.

He clapped his hands together and his death aura made thunderclap sounds as it spread like a plague towards the clouds. A devilish grin appeared on Derik's face as the darkish purple aura began taking the form of a massive gate.

"Death magic: Accursed gate of the underworld" Derik hissed.

His hands were spread forth as if he was waiting for someone to run into his embrace and his devilish grin widened even further!

"A hero of legend dares to go up against death itself! You must be tired of living! Today, I will prove to the world Derik Angus is inferior to no one! The bringer of death has returned and this world will bow!" Derik's voice was enhanced by his power, making it sound like roaring thunder.

Sounds of his bones cracking could be heard soon after indicating that Derik's fists were been healed! He broke his fist bones just to deal reasonable damage to Kaido and that is after he fearlessly dived into the blazing yellow sun created by Kaido just to land a few hits.

This is how a mad man acts!

This man has lost his senses!

............

Kaido was caught off guard by Derik's daring act when he flew directly into his scorching yellow sun aura, this left him dazed for a while thereby giving Derik enough chance to land two blows.

"You crazy f**k!" Kaido laughed as he wiped off the blood on his face with his palm.

He pushed off the debris on his body only to see the massive gate above Derik taking form but yet to be completed. He was already aware of Derik's abilities and why such a gate should be never be allowed to open.

Not only will this boost Derik's power by letting him draw strength from the underworld directly, but it also allows him to leave at any point in time, as no one dares to trespass into the territory of the actual angel of death, they can only watch Derik leave helplessly.

"Trying to flee after a destroying my perfect face with that bony fist of yours? I think not!" Kaido adjusted his broken nose with his hands before turning into a yellow beam of light, shooting towards Derik.

Gripping his two-handed broadsword with both hands, Kaido let out a roar and a scorching beam of sun energy shot down from the sides, setting his blade ablaze.

"Sun magic: Scorching draught blade!" Kaido roared as he pushed forward, his intentions were not hidden and this did not bother Derik one bit.

"Run? You are living a fantasy! I will kill you here and take my leave" Derik laughed as he waved his hands.

"Awwwoooo!" the massive werewolf roared upon receiving its command, completely ignoring the barrier it was attacking just a second ago.

It's scorching eyes glowed and the darkish purple fiery energy that made up its claws burst out violently. With a single swoop, it hacked down at Kaido who was to reach the gate, forcing him to retreat to the side.

Tink!

Kaido was stunned by the raw power the werewolf avatar possesses and how dangerous it can be. He had to confess that Derik's spell arsenal was rather interesting and not as boring as before. He quickly decided to put in more effort before going at it again.

This time his eyes portrayed his resolution and his scorching blade showcased his rage. His eyebrows were knitted together as he struck at the ten massive darkish purple fiery claws descending on him like a mountain.

"Aaaarrrrrrrrrrgggggghhhhhh!" Kaido roared as he swung his blade releasing a massive amount of explosive flames which pushed the werewolf avatar back a bit, giving him the chance to fly through.

By this time, the gate was almost done, making him more desperate than ever. His vision of the massive gate was soon blocked by Derik who wore a confident smile on his face.

"Not today" Derik muttered

"You clearly want to die! Have at it!" Kaido roared and brandished his sword at Derik, releasing another wave of scorching flames.

Seeing the sea of flames encroaching towards him, the smile on Derik's didn't fade. He stretched his hands forth and a massive magic array appeared in front of him.

"Ooo god of death, lord of the underworld and ruler of all damned souls in it, hear the plea of thy faithful servant and burn thy foe with the unquenchable flames of hell, even thy ashes will not remain! Death magic: Hell flame!" Derik roared and a massive wave of darkish purple flames rolled out of the magic array, ultimately colliding with Kaido's orange flames.

"Not yet!" Kaido roared as he burst out even more strength and shot towards the massive gate like a meteor. His hands trembled as fire aura gathered around his golden weapon, it burst out instantly and lashed out on anything close by. As he was too distracted by his quest to destroy the building, Kaido didn't notice the massive flaming darkish purple class which penetrated his armor, rupturing his bones.

"Sun magic: Blazing slash" Kaido roared and swung his blade vertically releasing an orange arc of energy attack which flew towards the massive gate which was now slowly opening after a long while.

Seeing this, a massive smile bloomed on Derik's face as the small amount of death energy which slipped out of the massive gate, drifted to his side and dove straight into his body. He felt more refreshed and didn't try to hold back here at all.

Numerous darkish purple claw-like energy burst out of his claws and with a savage grin, Derik shot down like an arrow towards the scorching orange energy arc attack.

"Silver level secret combat technique: Brilliant claw!" Derik roared and brandished his claws at the arc of orange energy.

Booooom!!!

An explosion occurred and Derik was forced to back off by a few meters. He quickly spat out a mouthful of black blood while his eyes showcased his excitement. The massive doors of the underworld gate yanked open and a terrifying amount of death aura burst out. He watched the death aura gather, instead of spreading like a plague and diving deep into Derik's body!

He felt like the upper limit which has withheld him from showcasing his true strength was slowly shattering and he could reach the gold realm at any moment.

"If this is the best a hero of legend can do, then they should just quit and let we host deal with our problems" Derik snorted as he stared at the injured Kaido who slowly got on his feet.

Seeing this Derik was slightly terrified since he knew how much damage Kaido took, so seeing him stand and move as nothing happened showed how tough this guardian knight is. He could only watch in peace, not daring to make the first move this time.

Hearing Derik's words Kaido was enraged for the first time, the shame he felt was almost unbearable! Something that can only be washed with the blood of an enemy.

As a member of the heroes of legend, the three of them are meant to be the strongest in the continent at the moment, yet he is being toyed with by a twenty-year-old death mage who just broke into the silver realm close to an hour ago.

Kiado raised his hand into the air and the sun suddenly became brighter and hotter than ever. The excessive heat and light energy dove right into Kaido's body which trembled as he forcefully absorbed the power from the sun

"Sun Magic: Sun god supreme deity!" Kaido roared and his body turned golden. His eyes were light a pair of bright stars and hid golden reinforced skin looked like something that can withstand even the earth collapsing on it.

Seeing this, Derik realized that this man he has been battling for a while now has been holding back from the very beginning. His body shook as he dared not linger here any longer!

Derik quickly turned into a beam of darkish purple light and escaped through the accursed gate of the underworld where no one can follow!
