Chapter 618 Giving up.

618 Giving up.

Dazzling golden flames danced around the peak angel-rank eagle, and its fierce gaze shifted to Blake's clones in possession of Emberforge..

Buzz.

The peak angel-rank eagle flapped its wings, hovering backwards as it was preparing to charge at Blake's clone, however, Blake had no intention of standing there and watching the beast act freely.

GRRR!

Out of thin air, Ebony appeared by the side of the eagle, catching it off guard. The reaction of the peak angel rank eagle was fast as it turned to see the new addition to the battlefield, but Ebony was faster.

Lunging forward with savagery, Ebony bulldozed its way through the golden flames and its fangs reached the eagle's neck.

"Cawww!" the eagle let out a pained cry as it wiggled desperately in an attempt to shake Ebony off, however, it was unsuccessful.

At this moment, thick darkness tendrils shot out from Ebony, stabbing into the eagle.

"Is that the darkness element?" Lucian and Valerius said in shock as their hearts sank.

Valerius cursed silently as he observed Ebony's Haiti appearance after its evolution.

Ebony's now massive muscular frame which stood at 20 meters tall was shrouded in a thick obsidian-black fur and its head was crowned by a fearsome set of pointed ears that held eyes that could pierce through the shadows with an even more intense crimson glow. Massive, razor-sharp teeth lined its powerful jaws and extending from its massive paws were claws that appeared as if forged from the darkest abyss. While grabbing onto the eagle's throat with its fangs, its tail danced around with a flickering flame tipped at the edge.

However, Valerius and Luciano didn't have the luxury of observing the battle for long, as the world turned dark once again. Almost instantly, Valerius frowned as he detected movements within the darkness. But he was just too slow to react since Blake's speed was enhanced by five things.

Bam.

Valerius felt a warm liquid rise in his throat, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood. He could feel the Ember forge stabbing deep into his heart, but this time the darkness was not only limiting his healing abilities but also draining his vitality rapidly "Are you really willing to kill your friend, just like that?" Valerius asked, hoping to take advantage of Blake's relationship with the real owner of the body.

His questions proved effective as Blake paused to ponder. This was a question he had been asking himself right from the moment he suspected Valerius had taken over Castiel's body.

However, after pondering silently for a short while, Blake shifted his gaze back to Valerius with resolve brimming in his eyes.

"Yes," Blake responded.

Listening to this response, Valerius was momentarily surprised, but it didn't last long. He let out a sigh of defeat, and the fighting spirit in his eyes began to fade.

While he wasn't expecting Blake to change his mind and let him go, this was his final attempt to survive, and seeing it didn't work he saw no reason to struggle pointlessly.

Valerius had given up!

It had become clear that he and Luciano could not defeat Blake, neither could he escape since Blake could easily chase him down to the ends of the infinite realm with the space element.

The only thing that could save him now was receiving the protection of a God. However, from the look of things, he wasn't confident that Synder would make it out alive from his battle with Cassius.

While Valerius could try hard to survive, he was tired of running. He was truly defeated, both in body and spirit.
