"Don't you dare underestimate the power of the royal guards!" Karl roared with fists clenched and his eyes fixated on the raging sea of blood flames.
His voice echoed all over the capital and everyone's attention was focused on the terrifying scorching sea of blood which was skillfully manipulated to evade the military and adventure association members in a bit to reduce casualties.
At this point, battles stopped abruptly and everyone waited with their fists clenched together, hoping that the death mage will either survive or die from this attack.
.........…..
"Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha!" King Robert laughed while clapping his hands together.
"I knew they could do it… that son of yours got too cocky!" King Roberts laughter echoed and those on the battlefield could even hear it.
Linda and John Angus watched with mixed emotions on their faces. They didn't know whether they should feel happy about this or feel sad because they just lost a member of their family.
............
"A pig like you should keep his mouth shut!" A cold voice resonated from the sea of scorching blood flames. Instantly a massive wave of death aura busted out, creating a safe zone within the sea of blood flames with just pure power!
Standing at the center of the scorching flames Derik truly looked like a messenger of death, sent to reap the lives of those who dare to go against him.
"Hahahaha! I knew this kid cannot be dealt with easily! Now my brothers, let's end this for the death mage!" Gerald laughed as flaming dragon wings appeared on his back and he shot towards the commanders of the military.
The other members of the adventurers association roared with their morale reaching the peak as they dashed towards their enemies with numerous army of the dead fearlessly!
"Fire will always quench! It cannot burn forever! Blood will always dry up! And life will always come to an end… only death is absolute, it is inevitable! I am inevitable!" Derik laughed as he launched himself into the air like a missile.
"Kill!!!" He roared and the three undead slaves under his command stormed forward, engaging Mason, Kira, and Karl in a heated battle!
"Rise up!" Derik laughed and his death aura shot out, turning into countless black rain and descended on the capital. Soon everyone who had lost their lives in this battle got on their feet's and picked up their weapons, joining the battle once more!
At this point, the number advantage which the military had was greatly reduced and their overall strength fell as well.
"Death magic: Hell flames!"
Derik quickly took a deep breath after which he spat out a terrifying amount of darkish purple flames of the underworld poured out of his mouth and crashed down of Gin like a tidal wave.
"I am not as simple as you think Derik!" Gin roared, refusing to flee.
His sky blue armor let out a blue flashed and he was soon encased in a blue energy sphere. His grip on the hilt of his magic sword tightened and he let out a roar as he poured in all his energy into it and struck at the sea of darkish purple flames.
Boooooooooom!
A surge of terrifying blue energy poured out of the magic weapon and clashed with the sea of flames. At first, it seemed like both sides were equally matched but later on, the sea of darkish purple flames slowly consumed the blue energy and slowly surrounded Gin.
At this point, Gin was pale and he could barely remain afloat in mid-air. The only reason he was still alive was simply because of the blue energy sphere around him which protected him from the flames but it seemed as if the blue sphere would crash any time soon.
"Split the heavens!" a cold voice echoed from afar and a massive divine sword appeared above the sea of darkish purple flames and instantly slashed down on it, splitting the flames in two.
Before Derik or anyone could react, Cyrus was already at the center of the flames, grabbing on to Gin and escaping.
During this time Derik didn't bother trying to stop them. In truth, he never really had plans of killing these people. Every member of the team guardian at that time was the best of their various classes or at least one of the best of their various classes, killing them off here will be a waste. When the real enemy arrives, who will stop them?
Puff!
Puti!!
Aaaahhhh!!!
Three screams could be heard not too far from Derik and Cyrus. It was Kira, Karl, and Mason. Even though these people broke through into the low grade of the silver realm, they were no match for a three-man team of undead who are at the peak grade of the silver realm. These undead slaves could not be killed or subdued by any of them, so it was just a matter of time before they are defeated, no matter how fiercely they fought.
Three figures, bloodied and battered fell from the skies like logs of wood, not having the strength to remain airborne! This was a complete loss for the Gyro kingdom!
Watching the three undead slaves return to Derik's side, Cyrus visage turned cold and murderous. He flicked his hand and a golden sphere surrounded Gin, Kira, Karl, and Mason before letting them fall to the ground, knowing they won't sustain major injuries from the fall.
"And its back to us again" Cyrus snorted as he secretly urged his life energy, preparing to go all out.
"Mmmmhm! You shouldn't let these kids interfere with our battles, they are no match for us… They will only end up getting hurt" Derik sneered.
"Do you think you can win against me Derik? I beat you last time, I can do it again… my offer still stands! This is your last chance" Cyrus said with knitted eyebrows
"Ha! I admit you were stronger back then but now, you're no longer my opponent! Step aside and I will only cripple you for wasting so much of my time… This is mercy… you should be grateful I am kind enough to make such an offer!" Derik sneered
"Cripple me? You wish! You don't have the ability!" Cyrus mockingly laughed…
"Well then, let's find out!" Derik sneered!
