Chapter 402 394: Gypsy Dance (2)



A white hand, or a hand-like aberration.

Tearing space.

Everything in the world seemed to be coming upside down all at once.

Presence that shook the world more than the grandest of earthquakes, breaths that gave rise to tempests worse than storms…

A concept beyond understanding.

Such an existence spilled out of the fracture in space.

A slit ran through the center of its face and teeth appeared all over. Giant like the sun in the skies, the being started smiling while looking down at us.

A sharp breath resounded in the air followed by Charlotte's swift commands.

"Evacuate your people! Send everyone who can't fight far away!"

Her gaze fell turned toward me, at the orb in my hands, and then at my eyes. She bit her lower lips and looked away.

"It's Invasion Navy, Mammon, call for backup! Everyone else prepare to fight!"

I took a slight step back.

The wind trembled with the presence, it was getting harder to breath. In the skies, the Outer God that Charlotte called the Invasion Navy slowly started splitting apart.

It tore apart into smaller bits and pieces, as if cloning itself into hundreds of the monster.

Like a meteor falling through the skies, its clones descended.

The giant that was with Charlotte was the first to intercept. It punched one of the clones and tore it apart. At the same time, dozens of others came around it and merged together to make a Clone as big as the giant itself.

The giant filled its fists with some kind of Ki again and hurled a punch, but the outer god's eyes gleamed then.

It's white, cylindrical body that resembled a blimp with tentacles started to tremble. Its mouth spilled open and a beam of pure light shot out.

The giant's fist collided with its body sending the ray to the side. The beam of light tore through the skies and in the next instant.

—BOOOOM!!

An explosion incomparable to the ones that Charlotte and Han Jun Ho made blasted out. A pillar of fire rose thousands of meters in the sky as a shockwave shot through.

Only fifty of the thousands of clones… had converged.

In the blink of an eye, the floating island covering the city of Baltimore… was reduced to rubble.

As if that was the catalyst of their fears, everyone on the floating island started screaming.

Fear.

Fear that made your calves tremble and your chest ache. Fear that made your eyes widen and your jaws tight. Fear that made your heart's beating and your breathing switch place.

That kind of fear flowed into everyone at the same moment.

And all of them.

"R-RUN!!!"

"AAAA!"

Screams and tears merged all around as everyone who couldn't fight started to run. The people with Charlotte pulled out their weapons and battled the descending clones, all of them forced to merge.

The buildings around us started breaking apart as corpses of the clones crashed into the ground.

I swiftly turned to my back and covered Miss Clayton with my shields.

"Alberto!"

The original Albert turned toward me with trembling eyes.

"Take her and run."

In fear, Alberto nodded and grabbed the sphere of shields. His Ki manifested around him and he shot off.

Luka and Albert were already preparing to fight the beings.

"RED HAIR!" Charlotte's scream rang. "It prioritizes strength."

Two kinds of energy swirled around her hand before merging into one.I think you should take a look at

"The more you can take on, the fewer others would have to!"

I could from a glance alone.

As a giant white sword formed in her palms, the mixture of the two energies that she used signified a beginning, a start. That was, world's creation.

With a single swing, dozens of the clones exploded in the skies.

A cheer rang out as the others waved their blades and spells toward the forthcoming army,

Han Jun Ho too, gripped his spear tight and raised all his Ki. A level even beyond that of the Ki Emperor.

The outer god's clones all widened their eyes at his mere presence.

Hundreds converged into one and launched another beam of light like before, but a stab from his swing was all he needed to cut through it.

A battle began between the hunters and Charlotte's group against the clones of the outer gods.

Luka and Albert brought out their strength and fought too, desperate against the enemy.

Helicopters and drones from below came to the edge of the Island and evacuated the people while missiles launched from the Pentagon crashed into the outer gods.

It seemed repelling them was possible.

It seemed so.

But no matter how powerful you were, the outer god's clone was always going to be just slightly stronger. If it wasn't then more clones would just join together.

The first to fall was the Giant.

An Outer God's tentacle crashed into the giant's face and he fell back.

In the next moment, the Outer God was about to launch another beam at the giant. It was impossible to block.

Calming my trembling heart, I grasped Catene's hilt as it turned into a sword and dashed toward the giant.

The orb.

The dimensional marker.

This Outer God… was here for me.

Because of me.

"GWEEEEENGGGG!!!"

The beam of light converged in the outer god's mouth.

"World's End…"

I stepped right in front of the giant and pulled the sword back.

"SLASH!"

The slash of pure black tore clashed with the beam of light in the clone. It eroded its very existence before clashing into the clone. A feral scream rang out as the slash tore through the being.

The giant behind me watched on, shocked, as the slash further shot toward the skies and killed a bunch more.

My eyes darted around the island and landed on the next person being pushed down by the clones.

This war…

I rushed through the grounds. A few others seemed to be struggling, but I knew they would pull through.

I stopped next to the elf that had fallen against the outer god and swung the sword again.

The clone was beheaded as hexagonal shields appeared all over the skies.

I jumped up and started cutting down all the clones in my way.

My grip on the dimensional marker tightened.

This war…

Was mine to fight.
