283 Chapter 283: One sided massacre

Kira's speech and orders only came after Blink had left the battlefield. Knowing a mere recruit was even forced to join this battle and sustained such injuries deeply hurt him and he was determined to kill everyone responsible for this. Even though Kalos explained Blink simply chose to fight for his own personal reasons, Kira still didn't feel obliged to accept such a half baked reason. If this war didn't happen in the first place, the kid would never have gotten the opportunity to do something so stupid.

Within the blood sea raging above, he observed the battle raging on below while focusing on completing his spell. This was by far the strongest spell he has casted all through his life. It was still the same blood sea he normally hides within when fighting but this was at a whole new level. A level where his spell covered over twenty kilometers, reaching thirty the next second. His sea kept growing and spreading like a plague while his mana burnt faster like never before.

He stopped expanding at forty kilometers and controlled the blood sea into taking the shape of a dome, covering all escape routes of the enemy's forces. Many tried to run through the blood sea since it was practically liquid but none ever emerged from the other side. Another set tried to create a hole in the blood dome by bombarding it with all the power they could muster but it was all fruitless. It was like tossing a knife into the ocean hoping it will create an opening for them to jump through but their attacks only entered without creating a path. Their attacks simply got lost, just like all those that decided to jump through, nothing gets through. Desperate to escape, a few guardian knights enhanced themselves with their numerous combat techniques but just like the first set, none made it through. Not even their screams could be heard.

With this, the real battle began. Instead, it wasn't a battle but a one-sided massacre! The remaining forces of the allied forces were barely up to fifty thousand, meanwhile, the forces of the Derik's sect only tripled in number since they raised the dead to fight for them not minding if they were friends or foes. Isabel and Creed knew this method was cruel and disrespectful to the dead but they couldn't deny the fact that it was also very effective.

Under Creed's orders, the remnants of their forces took a defensive position, forming a circle with the guardian knights in front, archers and assassins directly behind and the other mage classes at the center of the formation. They rained numerous spells from all sides, temporarily slowing the enemy's advances but everyone knew it was only temporary.

Bang!

The bodies exploded loudly turning into blood mist while Kuen who was covered in the blood of the three paladins stepped out of the twenty-meter deep crater where he fought the three paladins. With a single wave of his palm, their forces stopped charging forward waiting from the three demon commanders' instructions before they resumed their suicidal assault.

"This world… this empire has brought nothing but pain and spite even after the palace of the dead has shown its goodwill over the years… We stopped the impending civil war when the empire was newly formed… This sect you sort to destroy today is the reason this empire was built in the first place and it is because of our palace master that you ingrates are still breathing… Yet you dare gather your forces and raise your weapons at us? You dare harm the disciples of the palace master… You dare harm a little recruit trying to gain recognition… All of this ends today! If I fail to wipe out everyone who has actively taken part in this revolt, I will renounce my position as a demon commander of this sect and take my own life!" Kuen bellowed as he stretched his hands forward and an invisible force flowed out.

Gravity magic: Blackhole!!!

Instead of pushing the foes away it actually attracted them towards the cosmic spirit host. The strong ones only slid forward slowly while the weak mages assassin and archers flew forward without any resistance, flying towards Kuen even Isabel was not spared. Blood flowed down Kuen's nostrils, eyes and ears as he strained himself to use the spell to this magnitude. It was something he has never done before, but he didn't care! Just like Kira as long as he could achieve his goals, the consequences will never be as good as the satisfaction, if they should succeed.

Just like the other two Kin was outraged too by everything and just wanted to kill them all. The forces of the allied nobles were made up of humans from Cato and Gyro. The two kingdoms the death mage saved from utter destruction in the past. Maybe it was because of the peace that made them forget or just the fact that they were just ungrateful, either way, he just hated them all.

[Such parasites should not be allowed to live any longer!] He thought as he dashed forward.

With a roar, Kin exploded, taking the form of a massive wave of dark clouds, shooting past Kuen and everyone else, Kin lead the charge, consuming everyone that flew towards Kuen. Once they entered the darkness only screams and shrieks could be heard before their lifeless bodies are ejected out of the dark cloud. Even the great commander of the elves, Isabel was pulled in, and just like everyone else is cries of pain echoed before her lifeless body riddle with numerous deep injuries was thrown out of the darkness like a dirty rag.

Amongst the guardian knights struggling against the suction force from Kuen's spell was Creed, the commander that once fought by Derik's side against the holy church after the death of the former king. Derik had given him a second chance at life but instead of embracing it, he chose to go against the death mage at any chance he got. Maybe seeing the younger generation grow much faster than him and hold more authority angered his greatly and pushed him to this but none of that mattered now.

From a puddle of blood right in front of the struggling guardian knight, a completely naked Kira emerged, with only his top half visible. Before Creed could scream a blood spear materialized in his hands and struck the old guardian knights throat and since everyone else was struggling to resist the suction force, they could only watch as their commander gasp for air while another blood spear formed in Kira's hand.

Puff!

The second spear struck Creed's chest making him lose his balance. The next moment he was swept off his feet and pulled towards Kuen but Kira grabbed on to his hand, preventing him from flying away.

"Didn't I tell you? Your death won't be pretty!" Kira's cold eyes met Creeds pleading gaze.

Some guardian knights couldn't bear to watch their commander die such a gruesome death at Kira's hands so they use the last of their strength to dive towards Kira with their weapons raised high but before they could reach him, Kira sank into the small blood puddle, dragging Creed with him.

A few seconds later the screams of the once-great commander could be heard all over the empire!
