Chapter 378 - 378: Just die!

Diana and the others could only stand there and watch in despair as their greatest sealing techniques crumbled easily and a figure encased in blazing golden aura slowly came into view. The process was slow but none of them dared to make a move against Cyrus while the seals crumbled.

At this point, their mind went blank and they fell into a state of confusion since their only plan had failed. Not only did they fail to seal Cyrus, even if they should face Cyrus now and probably try to seal him a second time, will they have enough strength to resist the three undead commanders? Talk less of Derik, if he chooses to make an appearance in person.

"This is the end… You are too arrogant… begone… Those words you all used are words reserved for the strong… You are not qualified to use such words" As usual, Cyrus' voice was calm but the murderous air hovering around him, revealed his killing intentions.

The figure shrouded in golden light soon emerged from what was used to seal him, slowly approaching with an expressionless face, striking deep fear into the hearts of his enemies.

Bam!

Gin who was still lost in the feeling of controlling so much aura soon felt a strong hand grip his wrist. Before he could even struggle, all the aura he had gathered at the tip of his blade shattered in an instant, dispersing without hesitation, leaving the undead commander more pissed off than stunned.

"Why?" Gin gritted his teeth as he tried to pull his hands away but no matter how much he tried he couldn't escape Cyrus' grip.

True life magic: Divine spear of judgment

Snapping his fingers, Cyrus proceeded to summon a golden spear by his side aimed at Diana. He heard Gin's question and only frowned slightly to show his annoyance before answering.

"This is my fight… They are not yours to kill… I will take their lives with my own hands" Cyrus replied softly as he watched a rectangular mirror appear above Diana's head.

Moon magic: Mirror image

"Didn't I tell you, Don't you dare look down on us!" Diana roared as the image of the golden spear appeared in the mirror.

Cyrus watched silently with a smug on its face as the golden spear slowly emerged from the mirror. Only after the spear was halfway out did the mirror suddenly shatter, canceling the technique entirely.

"Trying to mimic the technique of a true god? How foolish of you!" Cyrus chuckled lightly while he spoke.

His words stunned everyone present since they all knew the power of Diana's mirror image. So far, the spell has been able to mimic every ability show to it no matter the power or the size. Even now, Diana successfully mimicked Gin's aura ball and it only fell apart because Cyrus stopped the spell midway. They were unable to understand how the technique shattered while trying to replicate Cyrus' technique.

"Impossible!" Diana cried out.

At this point, she was dripping with sweat! Without her magic weapon, her mirror image and mirror world was her only means of protecting herself. Not only did Cyrus destroy her crescent moon magic weapon while breaking out of the seal but he has also rendered her magic mirror magic useless, making her a burden to the other two.

But how did her technique fail to work?

As far as Diana is concerned her mirror image should be able to mimic abilities at the same realm or even a realm above her. She would understand if her technique failed to work against a real demigod but Derik and Cyrus were yet to enter that realm, so she couldn't understand why it didn't work! They are still at the peak grade of the gold realm and even if they are about to breakthrough it shouldn't count!

"Don't be naïve little girl… Derik and I have already surpassed mere demigods…. We are potential true gods, a status you can never acquire in a million years… In case you have forgotten, we just went up against a demigod and we returned without a scratch… Do you think mere gold realm masters can do that? Well, it doesn't matter because it all ends here… In my opinion… I wasn't the one that underestimated you all… I believe you three are the ones that underestimated me" Cyrus said with a sigh as he waved his hand and the golden spear let out a bright golden light as its size suddenly began to increase.

Under the watchful gaze of the three gold realm masters, the golden spear kept increasing in size until it could even rival the size of the fake moons, making everyone like tiny in its presence. The bright light it exuded and the divine aura that radiated from this spell was all focused on Francis, Diana, and Ahika, making it impossible for them to move.

If they fail to counter such an attack with equal power, they will die!

"I left this empire to strengthen myself for your sake… I did this so that I can protect every one of you… Derik and I have never harbored any ill intentions towards this empire and from the very beginning, we have always fought to get stronger so that we can protect what we have created and everyone within it… But short-sighted bastards like you who only have selfish intentions will never let it all work out well… Because you are lacking in strength, you all always end up feeling threatened by our existence so you always attempt to destroy our efforts in any way possible… All this while I assumed Derik was merciful for not killing you off since but now I believe Derik made a foolish mistake by letting you all live this long! You three dared to lead a three hundred thousand strong army against two sects that barely had up to thirty thousand capable fighters… because of your actions, thousands of people who I swore to protect, ended up dying in that battle… People who looked up to me and worshipped me… AND FOR WHAT REASON? I AM HERE TO CORRECT THE MISTAKE DERIK HAS BEEN MAKING FOR A LONG WHILE NOW… I WILL HAVE YOU ALL JUST DIE NOW!" Cyrus roared!
