Paragon of Death

203 Chapter 202: Death of legends

“Human!”

Buzzz!

The world trembled violently and even the ground began to split as Damon’s figure remained standing while holding on to the soul of the archmage Kratos.

“Hahahaha! The soul may bear your soul print but it also bears the soul print of the God’s vein! You can hijack as many souls as you want but in the end, they still belong to us, the new gods” Damon sneered at the invisible deity glaring down at him from the heavens.

“I am simply taking what’s mine from the start” Damon hissed.

Buzzz!

Suddenly the world began trembling as invisible chains erupted from the earth and lashed onto Kratos’s soul, pulling it towards Damon. While Damon could not control the power of the world he felt he didn’t need to. As long as one knew the conditions required to prompt the world to take action that’s all one needs to do.

Bang!

The pulling force increased fourfold but even then, the world chains had a strong grip and with Damon’s aid, he finally consumed the soul. As soon as Damon consumed the soul he quickly clasped his hand and began refining the soul while creating a new body for it. While one would consider it dangerous to do such in the middle of the battlefield, Damon saw no issue in doing this since both men should be extremely busy now.

.....

Bang!

The son of heaven rolled out of his golden phoenix and its flames extinguished. The power of the undead dwarf king was the same as it was when he was alive but now, he had no need to worry about stamina or mana. No matter how many times it got hurt, it would instantly heal. Against someone who was equal when he was alive, even the son of heaven could not win such a battle.

My king!

The supreme golden deity frowned as it saw the state of things. With Archmage Kratos dead, the spatial crack zone which was stopping the fiery blue hurricanes suddenly roared to life and spun dangerously as the only thing stopping its advance was broken.

From above, the massive black skull meteor had already arrived. The duo could only look up with dangerously pale faces and dejected looks

In the end, they couldn’t win!

Boom!

Standing on the walls of the Gyro Kingdom, Gerald and Dillian frowned. They watched as the sky turned dark and a strong wind began blowing. The once clear day became a stormy night in an instant leaving the world stunned.

“They are dead. The death mage killed them” Gerald muttered and Dillian frowned.

They could see the great undead army approaching from a distance and he sighed. The sacrifice of the son of heaven, Pope light, and Arch mage Kratos was only enough to keep Damon occupied for a while, allowing them to reach the kingdom. Hidden behind the kingdom walls, one could be considered to be in a much safer environment than outside.

“Activate all defensive systems. Prepare all forces! The fate of our kingdom is about to change today. We must be prepared to do what it takes to shape it to our will!” Gerald said with a cold look on his face.

He felt a sting in his heart due to the death of his father but that’s all he can claim to feel. He never had any real father-and-son moment with the old man, he was trained to take over and become the new son of heaven right from the day he was born and the same could be said for his brother.

But that didn’t mean he didn’t respect the man for his achievements. In this life, King Robert was the one he respected the most so he still felt a sense of loss.

“We have to return to the royal palace and leave things to our people here and there” Dillian said with a deep frown as the undead soldiers drew closer with the fiery hurricanes.

Gerald frowned when he heard this but he could only nod in agreement. At the edges of the kingdom lived the poor. The wealthier one is, the closer they are to the capital which is at the center of the large kingdom. Getting to that center would take time and require a lot of effort.

He shot the incoming undead army one last time before walking away with a stern look on his face. As long as they can reach the dragon palace, they have nothing to fear.

.....Meanwhile.....

Hmph!

Damon snorted disdainfully as he watched a figure covered in blood and injuries rise to his feet. His body kept trembling he kept standing regardless.

“My death will bring you no joy” King Robert said.

“Neither will it bring me any sorrow? You have been a thorn in my flesh so I guess it’s still a win for me” Damon said with an indifferent look.

“You...” King Robert growled but he could do nothing.

The Phoenix pathway would usually grant him rebirth and heal his injuries but his senses were boldly telling him to avoid such an idea

For a reason, he felt if he dies, his phoenix pathway won’t be able to bring him back.

“In the end, you lost and I won. Come at me with what’s left of your resolve and don’t worry, you can leave the future of the human race in my hands. Not even god can harm them if I choose to protect them” Damon said indifferently.

“I guess our time has come to an end. It’s time for the new generation to take over. I was a fool to think I can hold on to power for much longer but you are an even bigger fool to think I will be willing to let go without a fight!” King Robert growled as all the power in his body exploded rapidly and a fierce fire torrent shot into the sky, dying the sky golden.

His majesty!

His majesty is still alive and fighting!

Buzzz!

Gerald and Dillian who were walking away were shaken.
