268 Ace, You Must Win
"Aagghh..."
"Aagghh..."
"Aagghh..."
"Aagghh..."
Soul-piercing howls of pain reverberated in the entire area.
Dezmavas was currently killing Scarlett's subordinates.
He did not kill them by cutting off their heads or piercing their hearts.
He burned them alive!
They dared to insult him earlier, so he decided to kill them in a cruel way.
"Hahaha." Dezmavas was no longer in human form but in his true form.
He decided to use his true form because, with this, he could burn them alive from the sky.
"They look like grilled meat." Dezmavas laughed happily when he saw the citizens of Nightshire city being burned alive.
'This is the consequences of offending me. Die, lowly human. Die!'
He kept spitting fire from his mouth, burning them alive.
If previously the people of Nightshire City had the upper hand in the war, the tables had turned now.
Sure, Nightshire City had more troops, but most of them were not awakeners, so they could not do much, especially when their opponent was Dezmavas, a 4-star dragon.
"Kill him!"
"Shoot him!"
"Don't let him get close to the wall."
"Protect our city."
"Mages and archers, attack him together."
"Focus on him! We will win the war if we can kill him!"
"Keep attacking him!"
Scarlett's subordinates, who were standing on the wall, attacked Dezmavas continuously when they saw him flying toward them.
However, their attacks were too weak to stop or kill him. He could even stop many arrows just by flicking his wings.
It was crystal clear that the difference in their strength was like heaven and earth.
"Haha. Your attacks tickle me. It's so weak." Dezmavas laughed when their attacks could not injure him. "Now it's my turn again."
Like what he had done earlier, he burned them alive again.
Not only that, but he also destroyed the wall, causing several people to fall from the wall and die.
As Dezmavas was killing Scarlett's subordinates, Ace fought Vianola and the others. Even though he still hadn't managed to kill all his enemies, but he had injured all of them.
Actually, his achievement was already good.
He was fighting against seven 3-star mythical creatures and more than one hundred 2-star magical beasts.
But even so, he still managed to kill two 3-star magical beasts and over thirty 2-star magical beasts.
If he were an ordinary awakener at the Grandmaster rank, he would not be able to do that because Pyria and the others were powerful 3-star magical beasts.
Some of them were even close to reaching 4-star, so it could be said that Ace did his job well.
"Aagghh..." Scarlett's subordinates cried out in pain.
'Hmm?'
Ace turned his head toward the source of the sound.
'He has made his move?'
Ace did not pay attention to Dezmavas before because over a hundred magical beasts were ganging up on him.
No!
He did not pay attention to him because Dezmavas showed no signs of wanting to enter the battlefield.
That was why he focused on killing 3-star and 2-star magical beasts because this could change the outcome of the war.
'I have to stop him.'
He did not want more people to die at Dezmavas' hands, so he planned to fight him.
However, Pyria stopped him when he was about to rush to Dezmavas.
"Do you think I will let you save them?" Pyria would not let Ace disturb her lord's enjoyment.
"Don't let him leave this place. We have to hold him back." Eldrin added.
"No matter what happens, we have to keep him here." Zelphar uttered.
More than one hundred magical beasts stood behind Pyria, intending to help her stop Ace.
Ace, who was standing in front of them, swung his sword in a circular motion, leaving a trace of afterimages behind.
'Yin-Yang Dragon.'
A black and white dragon came out of the Yin-Yang symbol.
Even though they were made of energy, they looked like real dragons, like Dezmavas.
No!
Calling them looked like Dezmavas was not entirely right.
Even though they were dragons, Dezmavas had a pair of wings, while the Yin-Yang dragons had no wings.
It could be said the Yin-Yang dragons looked like Shenron from the Dragon Ball movie, but in a small version.
But even so, the Yin-Yang Dragon skill was still powerful, especially when Ace used the second and third forms.
"Cough..." blood splashed out of their mouths as Pyria and the others were thrown several meters from where they were.
Even though Ace wanted to kill them, he did not do that. Dezmavas could kill several people in just a second, so every second was important.
'Do your best to kill them.'
After creating two clones and ordering them to kill Pyria and the others, Ace flew toward Dezmavas.
"Brother Ace, we will help you." Allan said after he saw Ace's two clones.
"Ace, I will help you." Layla uttered.
"We will help you too." Melissa and her husband said in unison
"We are only clones, so we will depend on you guys to kill them." Ace's clones uttered.
"Clone?" Allan and the others were shocked because they previously thought one of them was the real Ace.
Boom!
Boom!
At the same time, the sound of Ace's fight against Dezmavas reverberated in the entire area.
Ace's clone pointed his right index finger at the real Ace and uttered, "The real me is fighting against their leader."
Allan and the others turned in the direction he was pointing at.
'They are fighting in the sky.'
They saw Ace and Dezmavas fighting fiercely in the sky.
"Then we have to kill them quickly, so that we can help brother Ace kill that dragon." Allan uttered.
"Un." Melissa and the others nodded their heads.
Scarlett, who stood in front of the gate, looked at him.
'Ace, you must win.'
He was the only one who could face Dezmavas, so they would lose the war if Dezmavas killed him.
*Slash...Slash...Slash...
After killing several magical beasts, Valeria lifted her head to look at Ace and Dezmavas.
'Ace...'
Of course, she wanted to help him, but she had an important task too.
Everyone had a role in this war, so she could not act as she pleased because it could cause more casualties.
'I believe in you, Ace. I believe you will win.'
She returned her attention to the magical beasts around her before finally attacking them again.
"Aron, you won't be able to kill me." Henry was pleased when he saw Aron's pitiful condition.
Actually, Henry was weaker than Aron.
Aron could not kill Henry and was injured because Henry got help from his subordinates and magical beasts.
If it were a one-on-one fight, Henry would have been dead by now.
'They always managed to stop my attack.'
14:10
"Cough...Cough..." Aron rose to his feet after coughing blood.
'They always managed to stop my attack.'
He added in his head.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The sound of Ace's fierce fight against Dezmavas reverberated in the entire area.
Henry immediately looked at Ace and Dezmavas.
'Ho? So, he has made his move, huh?'
He was thrilled when he saw Dezmavas fighting against Ace.
Of course, he believed Dezmavas would win the fight because he was already at 4-star and from the mighty Dragon race.
Like Henry, Aron also looked at them.
'Ace is doing his best. I should do the same.'
He returned his attention to Henry.
"What? You still want to fight me?" Henry uttered.
In his eyes, Aron was a fool because there was no way Aron could kill him when his subordinates and magical beasts supported him.
"Nightshire City never forgives traitors, so I will do anything to kill you." Aron responded, "I will show everyone the consequences of betraying Nightshire City."
"Nice words, mister Aron." Ace's clone said as he walked closer to Aron.
"Ace?" Aron was shocked when he saw Ace's clone.
He turned his head to look at the person fighting Dezmavas before returning his attention to Ace's clone.
'Ace is still fighting Dezmavas. Does that mean he is a clone?'
He knew Ace had clone magic because Ace used a clone in his fight against Leo several days ago.
"Nightshire City never forgives traitors and always punishes them by being killed. Ah, by the way. I'm only a clone. The real me is fighting Dezmavas right now." Ace's clone said as he pointed his right index finger at the real Ace.
"You are only a clone and you want to kill me?" Henry mocked Ace's clone.
"Mister Aron, let's kill this traitor together." Ace's clone uttered.
"Alright." Aron nodded his head.
"Then I will kill you two." After saying that, Henry attacked them.
