Chapter 110: Awakening

(Third Person)

Due to Commander Einar's final order, the army that was supposed to be an entire legion took their retreat. What was left from 6000 personnel was just a measly of what it was.

"Commander Einar has fallen! Save yourselves and take your retreat!" Commander Einar's right hand, Captain Joran shouted as he took the lead and escorted the remaining personnel for their escape.Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience

"Captain, what happened? How come we have lost?" One of the knights asked.

Captain Joran shook his head. "I don't know." He clicked his tongue. "I should have stayed with Commander Einar."

"Captain, none from their side is trying to stop us. They are letting us go."

Captain Joran removed his helmet revealing his blonde hair and gentle face. With his almond brown eyes, he stared in the direction where the last time he saw Commander Einar alive. "I hope that's the case. That attack that delivered the final blow to Commander Einar, it was filled with malevolent energy. The last time I have witnessed such a devastating attack that resembles that... It was from the demon lord himself. Something is telling me, whoever did that attack is not someone we could face right now."

In the direction where Captain Joran was looking. A certain person was standing next to a massive line in the ground created by his own attack.

While staring at his shivering hand, he smiled. "I am indeed... a monster."

Instantly, the entire area around him was enveloped in a massive cloud of darkness, destroying everything around 50 meters around him. The very image of it was completely visible around the area, putting everyone who saw it in great fear.

The massive cloud of darkness gradually disappeared and what was left was Casimir slowly floating in the air, with massive black wings sprouting on his back. Each one of the wings resembled the wings of a raven and had a width of 2 meters and every time they waved, snow-like dark particles were slowly falling from his wings.

Casimir opened his eyes, revealing his pair of glowing red eyes, each leaving red lines in their path as he moved to stare at the entirety of his newly acquired wings. "Oh, wow. I have wings... neat."

A smirk emerged on his face as he raised his hand leveling his chest. He brushed his hair up, furtherly pronouncing his pair of glowing eyes and horns.

But his eyes instantly widened upon seeing the glowing pair of eyes slowly coming out from the dark cloud. His sword shivered but he remained standing. "It's impossible... It can't be true!"

"Slow me down? That's funny."

That cruel voice was the only thing he heard before his head flew out and rolled to the ground. While his enemy flew out to slaughter the ones who managed to survive his initial attack. And easily done it.

The reign of terror occurred as the screams of fear shrouded the entire area as their single assailant massacred everyone in his path while generating an unnerving laugh as he chased one troop after another. Moving at great speed that no one could oppose.

Once more, he landed right at the center of a troop and instantly cut anyone in the 50 meters area around him in half using malevolent black Wind magic. The entire place that used to be filled with knights was filled with the blood of the unfortunates.

One of the knights who survived crawled back while staring at the person walking toward him. His widened eyes trembled upon seeing what it was.

"Monster!"

Casimir smiled. "Yes, I am I am indeed a monster."

Suddenly, the knight was engulfed in black flame and slowly burned the knight into ashes, his loud cry was more than enough to turn the remaining knights who witnessed the scene into great despair.

"It's not enough! I want more!" Casimir's wings waved, propelling him up at the same time, leaving a massive cloud of darkness behind, finishing off the ones who remained.

For a few seconds, he remained drifting in the air while staring at the route of the remaining army.

The entire army was forming one group while continuously running away.

He put his hand on his chin before expressing a smile.

"I see. So that's the route they are planning to go." He wandered his eyes throughout the forest. "There is also a smaller group around there." His smile became wider as the glow of his red eyes became brighter. "I'll go slaughter the bigger group first. Then, I'll go for the smaller one next." Once more, his wings waved and flew at great speed towards the massive group from the distance.

"This is your punishment for challenging us, Commander Einar. I will leave no one in your pathetic legion alive. Watch as I send them all to you... all at once!"
