Chapter 117

After Christina’s blow, the result of the war had finally been settled leaving everything for Alex.

While they cleared off the remaining ones, on the other side loud clashes were still going on creating ripples and shockwaves, one after another.

BOOM!BOOM!BOOM!

Raucous voices echoed throughout the place breaking away the silence of night like the shrill clicking sound of the insects.

The silence of the night had been broken long ago and the pitch darkness of the night was slowly fading away as the world prepared itself to welcome the rays of the sun.

Heron snorted and his body started to cover in blazing flames, with the long poled scythe in his hand, he teleported to the front of Alex, trying to chop down his head.

Alex looked at the incoming scythe covered in flames and twisted his body.

Instead of retreating, he moved forward toward the attack. When the scythe was about to touch his body, he suddenly moved sideways and slashed his greatsword like a whip.

The sword-like bolt of lightning moved towards Heron’s gut wanting to pierce it.

Heron twisted his hand and changed the direction of his swing and raised the scythe to use as a shield to protect himself.

The tip of the great sword stabbed it and hit the edge of the scythe and forced him to take a few steps back.

His hand was struck hard due to heavy force from Alex’s strike. He has been startled by Alex who was able to parry his attacks which carried the strengths of Epic rank even though this guy was in peak Disciple rank.

Alex didn’t give him leeway and swung his sword brutally at Heron.

The force carried by his sword created a large sharp wind blade which shot towards Heron who was retreating.

Seeing the wind blade, he whirled his body at an unprecedented angle and dodged the blow but due to this, he lost his balance in the mid-air.

Alex used an air leap and his figure appeared near Heron giving him a huge fright while he swung his scythe aiming at Alex’s neck.

The scythe went through Alex and passed his body which later turned out to be an afterimage and he turned his head around to see a dark mass covering his vision turning his eyesight dark.

He didn’t lose his eyesight, later a first appeared before his face and struck him hard which sent him flying.

BOOOOOOOM!

Heron’s figure shot backwards like a cannon and his body slammed against boulders and trees which were crushed and swept away by the impact.

Heron screamed as his body flashed with flames and a fierce aura erupted from him.

“Damn!!Damn! These asshole dogs of the suicide squads got no chills.” Alex cursed as he saw Heron burning his life force and creating strong flames which annoyed him greatly.

“Once I win the war, I swear that I will fry that asshole king along with the people responsible for circulatingthese techniques in hot oil.”

“Can’t these dogs fight normally?” Alex cursed and even wanted to spit on this man.

Alex could feel a powerful breath erupting from Heron whose entire body was enveloped by flames looking like a flaming demon.

His entire body was literally on fire.

“I guess this man will even shit fire on me now, “Alex spoke with an irritated tone.

The ground on which Heron stood started to burn and radiated a sizzling and crackling sound.

Large footholes appeared on the surface as the soil started to burn.

“Hushhh!” Heron exhaled deeply, pouring out flames from his mouth and nostrils.

BUSSSSSH!

With a fierce outburst, his body disappeared and he appeared behind Alex.

Alex was startled by the man’s sudden outbursts of frightening speed and he had no time to rotate his head while Heron had already swept his leg towards Alex.

Alex could only rely on his instincts honed from countless battles and use the feeling from the training and combats he had done till now.

Before he could raise his greatsword, he felt a strong burning sensation on his arms and saw that Heron had shot a punch towards his arm from afar.

Alex gritted his teeth to suppress the pain and let go of his heavy sword to prepare himself for Heron’s incoming attack.

He raised both of his arms and closed them in an X shape to block the leg sweep from Heron.

BANG!

Alex felt that both of his arms were hit by a steel hammer again and his arms felt almost cracking.

Alex’s entire body was blown away by the huge force, a deep fiery imprint appeared on the armour covering his arms along with the small dent and before he could lend to the ground, Heron had caught up with him halfway and swung his arms and made Alex fly upwards.

Heron appeared again in the mid-air and slammed at Alex forcefully with both of his fists, Alex heard the faint sound of cracking somewhere and his body shot towards the ground with high speed and he was smashed on the ground heavily like a meteor.

In the area where he was hit, he could barely feel anything there and he coughed as he tried to get up at once.

“Taking me so much time to deal with you. King Of Nevan you surely seemed to be a worthy opponent who may cause great danger to others in the future but alas you are going to fall in my hands.”

Alex coughed violently as he tried to stand up when he saw a bright dazzling sword light at distance and his expression turned solemn.

He activated his mana sensor and sensed turbulent mana circulating on the top.

His brows furrowed as he looked in the direction where the battle was going on. His gaze seems to be pierced by the darkness and spot the things happening there.

[Host, please stop being a masochist. Cease your act and finish the job. Haven’t you been taught in kindergarten that it’s dangerous to play with fire? Heron is a ticking time bomb. So, please finish him quickly.]
