Chapter 232: Leon Vs Seph
"AWAKEN! MY GHOST!"
The moment he muttered, the darkness residing deep inside exploded from his body and expanded wildly.
Everyone's vision was momentarily blinded.
Ella and Evelyn, who were behind the crowd, closed their eyes due to the stinging pain as they rubbed their eyes. They heard a scream that filled them with dread.
"AHHHHH!"
"What's this?"
As the fog dissipated, everyone's eyes widened, and jaws dropped.
Eleanor's whole body trembled, and as she looked forward, she spotted worry on Seph's face.
Wang Tin's heart skipped a beat, and the chiefs of the other families almost flinched back because...
The place where Leon stood alone was now surrounded by hundreds of Martial Emperors, and if this wasn't enough, behind him, a huge sea of dark humanoid figures and monsters wearing armor stood, striking their weapons on the ground.
The expression of smile and ridicule on everyone's face disappeared.
Leon gazed around and waved his hand.
"Hella, Terpas, Seeker, Looner, Kratos, Synder, Looner, and Germin. Go and bring me their heads. Kill everyone who comes in your way."
"No need to spare anyone."
Loud shouts echoed after as the ghosts shouted beating their chest like drums of war.
"Yes, My Lord!"
"Yes, My Liege!"
"Master, I will make sure to save their heads," Hella said, clapping her hands and swaying her graceful figure.
Followed by their gleeful laughter, they jumped like tides of the ocean,
The ground creaked, and the air stirred as, with lightning-fast speed, they crashed into the enemy army.
Seph, momentarily stunned, shouted, "Everyone fights! And aim for Leon! As long as we take him out, we will win!"
With that, Seph jumped forward, followed by all the family heads.
Soon the two opposing armies met and then...
BOOOOOOOOOOOM!
A huge shockwave sent everyone crashing and flying due to the fierce collision with the Martial Emperors.
Leon looked ahead and then behind.
"Leave!"
Everyone's body trembled a bit upon seeing his dark hollow gaze.
"Leon, you can't defeat them alone."
"Girls... It's better if we don't interfere and become a burden."
A clanging sound echoed as Seph's fist slammed on his arms, and to his surprise, he was shot back by the force, unable to maintain his footing.
Seeing the looming figure, Leon lost his attention, dropping his guard, but even after all this, Leon wasn't able to calm down his trembling hands.
CRUNNNNNNNNNG!
Leon just stood on his feet after sliding several meters, cracking through the ground, and coughed slightly, but Seph didn't give him time to recover.
Leon cursed and started to run at full speed as he saw Seph falling from the sky with lightning surrounding him.
BOOOM!
A golden lightning flash fell from above and fiercely struck the ground where Leon stood for a brief moment.
The sound of an explosion traveled for several meters, and a golden illumination of the flickering lightning illuminated the space like a mini sun.
A pained expression was shown on Leon's face for a moment as he was almost blown away by the explosion, and his back was hit by the lightning, burning his back clothes a little.
Seph appeared near the crater, golden bluish lightning appeared on his palm, and he pulled the spear from the space ring. He swung the spear first to the front and then behind his body before firmly gripping the shaft with both hands as the swing completed at the front.
He leaned forward slightly, and the spear was ignited with a spark of bright light, seeming to be covered by his aura.
The ground beneath him, acting as his supporting floor, slowly cracked under the pressure as he said coldly, "Leon, playtime is over. Did you have enough warm-up? Now show me what you've got."
Leon's lips slowly curved upwards, and he sighed. "I don't know why you want to piss me off."
"At first, I was nervous and angry about this. I was consumed by rage and madness wanting to tear you apart right at the moment I found out about the prank."
"But do you know why I waited till today?"
"Why?" Seph asked with an amused expression playing along.
"Because by the time we are fighting, all your crimes along with your wives are being broadcast live."
Seph's expression faltered on hearing this.
"I wasn't just hiding and playing all around as Noel Star My ghosts...."
"My ghosts Have always hovered around recording everything...."
Seph's eyes flickered at the revelation as he always felt someone oddly looking around, but his system didn't find anything, which now made him doubt his system's omnipotence. But he shook his head as the atmosphere became heavy all of a sudden.
Leon closed his eyes for a moment.
"I am really pissed off."
As soon as the words fell, Leon's aura changed, replaced by a crimson aura that enveloped his body.
The sword in his hand trembled and glowed gleefully as if it had found its long-lost companion.
Seph saw Leon open his eyes, but his golden pupil had been tainted by a darkish sclera, giving him the look of a demon.
Seph felt a chill down his spine as his eyes met Leon's demonic eyes, and raising his spear, he thrust at Leon.
Leon's body disappeared followed by a loud explosion that occurred in the middle of the huge place, distorting everything.
BOOOM!
