Chapter 388 - 388: Battle of the successors! (1)

While the battle raged on, five figures remained hidden in the clouds above, as they watched the two successors face thousands of beast-men with smiles on their faces.

"Huh? They are doing better than I expected" Kira chuckled lightly.

"Of course they are doing well… They are the successors… Don't look down on them" Agus said with furrowed eyebrows.

"Well, I guess we can rest a bit, and enjoy the show before the main force joins the battle" Kuen said with a satisfied look on his face.

"Yea… Just let the empire enjoy the show… No need to rush, we will step in when needed" Fernandos' eyes were fixed on Clovis and a smile could be seen on his face.

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

Immediately the first beast-man who stepped into the spatial zone was ripped to shreds, the others stopped in their tracks and gazed at the formation carefully. Contrary to Clovis and Blink's expectations, they were even more enraged.

"We really hit the spot there" Clovis chuckled while summoning a second golden sword.

"I guess we did… the question is, what can they do about it?" Blink chuckled as he summoned a second silver dagger.

Roar!

The beast men all fell into a raged state, surging forward fearlessly. Surprisingly, they are dashed into the spatial zone, and even when the golden spears killed lots of them in large numbers, they didn't retreat, instead, they pushed forward, twice as hard.

"Haaa!" Blink and Clovis roared, dashing forward to meet the enemies head on.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Sounds of weapons clashing, accompanied by the screams of defeated foes filled the air. While Clovis's angelic golden wings acted as a shield, allowing him to attack without worry, Blink was forced to teleport constantly so as to evade attacks and deal killing blows. Each time he brandished his weapon, someone's life would end abruptly.

This battle continued for a while and even then, these two could hold their own against enemies flanking them from all sides. Since their enemies only possessed bronze level strength and the strong ones amongst them had could rival low-grade silver realm experts, Blink and Clovis had no problem ending them instantly.

"At this rate, they will die… The number of these people is just too great" Kira said as he watched the battle unfold.

Honestly, he never expected these two to last this long. In his opinion, they should have been forced into a corner by now but right now all he could see are men still holding their own against so many foes.

But how long can they keep this up?

"Young master Clovis will fall first… His body is still unable to withstand palace master Cyrus' power for too long… He still needs some time for his body to adjust to palace master Cyrus' soul fragment residing in that body" Fernandos said.

"That's the price master Cyrus chose to pay when he refused to completely expel Clovis soul…. Now it will take some time for these changes to take place and Clovis's soul will have to adapt to it, if not it will be harmed in the process" Agus sighed as well.

"Shouldn't we step in now?" Kin who was shrouded in darkness suddenly spoke up. In his opinion, these two will definitely fall in a few minutes at most.

"Not yet… Their opponents now have a low cultivation base… the powerful beast-men are yet to make a move… I'm sure they won't stay idle for much longer" Kira said!

ROAR!

"YOU DARE ACT C.O.C.KY AND ATTACK OUR SETTLEMENT ALONE? ALL BECAUSE YOU ARE FROM THE EMPIRE? YOUR DEATH WILL NOT BE PRETTY!"

Just as soon as Kira was done speaking a loud voice shook the place from afar and a beam of yellow light shot towards Blink and Clovis.

"This pressure!" Clovis's eyes squinted as he watched the yellow beam of light heading towards them.

"Hehe… A strong one just appeared" Blink chuckled while a bead of sweat rolled down his forehead.

Boom!

Killing close to a hundred beast-men close by upon landing, the huge man who had a bear fur dr.a.p.ed over his shoulder frowned and gazed at the sky. At this moment, Blink was levitating a few meters above Clovis by his side, staring down at their new foe below.

"His strong" Clovis sighed.

"I know right?" Blink seemed excited. 

If he failed to teleport himself and Clovis out of the way, when he did, they would have died alongside the beast-men around them.

"DO YOU THINK YOU CAN FLEE AFTER ALL YOU HAVE DONE? EVEN THE DEATH MAGE AND THE LIFE MAGE CANNOT SAVE YOU FROM MY WRATH!" The beast-man laughed as he stretched his hand towards their direction and pulled.

Bang!

An invisible force suddenly pulled Blink and Clovis towards the beast-man, not giving them a chance to struggle, and just like before, Blink vanished with Clovis just before they reached, appearing a few meters away on land.

"A gold realm master at the low grade… I am quite disappointed, you won't even last two seconds against my master" Clovis said casually.

"A mere gold realm master dares to utter crap about my palace master? You will not leave this place alive!" Blink growled as he entered a fighting stance.

At this point, the beast men around had retreated some meters away, giving enough space for the bear clan chieftain to battle these two invaders. At first, they strongly believed the chieftain of the bear clan would be able to end these two instantly but after seeing them escape twice they began having doubts, and then these two suddenly declared to be disciples of the two most powerful beings in this continent.

Boom!

Boom!!

A silver and golden pillar of aura engulfed Blink and Cyrus as they slowly rose above the ground. Their joint strength was not inferior to that of the beast-man in any way and for a moment, they looked more menacing than their opponent.

Golden and silver tattoos surfaced on their bodies as their weapons lit up in their hands.

"Let us show you, why we were chosen as their successors!" They growled!
