Paragon of Death

136 Chapter 135: Who won?

Bleegh!

Damon spat out more blood as his body trembled violently. He was going against someone with greater cultivation, trying to match his enemy in a contest of strength was the dumbest thing he could do, he had no other choice!

“You! I won’t let you escape!” Kaido growled like a mad beast as he brandished his massive golden sword at Damon while he was holding up the fake sun.

Xiu!

His figure appeared beside Damon as the massive blade swung forward, aiming for his neck!

“YOU!” Damon felt the threat of Denver and quickly acted without hesitation!

Boom!

A fierce darkish green pillar of energy descended from the heavens slamming into him while sending Kaido spiraling back!

“I am the one who stands atop this world. Be it a god or a mortal, none can escape death! Do you think you can win against something even you can’t escape from?” Damon’s voice boomed like lightning as heavy breathing could be heard from the green pillar of energy

.....

Swooosh!

When it cleared, what Kaido saw was a darkish green werewolf with blood-red eyes and darkish green flames as its fur and claws!

“THIS IS NOT A POWER YOU CAN CONTEST AGAINST! SHATTER THE HEAVENS!” Damon’s voice boomed from the skies as a massive darkish green aura version of the undying wolf surged from Damon’s body grabbing onto the massive fake sun covered in the black veil.

Bleegh!

Damon’s body exploded as countless cuts appeared all over his body!

“This is my limit?” Damon muttered weakly as his body returned to its human form and fell off the skies.

At first, Kaido was terrified but seeing Damon’s falling body, a cruel smile blooded on his face as he gripped this blade tight and raced towards the falling figure with killing intent in his eyes. As long as he is able to kill Damon here and now, the shame he suffered would be erased and no one would ever find out!

“DAMON ROSS, HAND OVER YOUR LIFE!” Kaido’s fierce voice boomed across the skies drawing the attention of everyone.

The blood moon faded from existence and the fake sun burnt so bright, any normal person looking towards the sky at that moment would be blinded!

“HE WON! Hahahahahahahha!” The son of heaven cried out as pearls of laughter filled the air. The anxiety in his heart vanished almost instantly and was replaced with joy.

Just like him, all the other officials behind him were also excited, only Duke Hail, Pope Light, and Archmage remained silent with a frown!

Suddenly familiar voices boomed across the sky stunning everyone.

“YOU WISH TO TAKE HIS LIFE IN MY PRESENCE? I WOULD LIKE TO SEE YOU TRY!” Gin growled furiously as he and Cyrus shot into the sky with their energy surging dangerously.

“GUARDIAN WEAPON PATHWAY: DIVINE DEITY BLADE! KAIDO, YOUR LIFE IS MINE TO TAKE! I WOULD LIKE TO SEE HOW YOU PLAN TO DEAL WITH THE HOSTS OF THE GUARDIAN SPIRIT OF FORCE AND LIFE” Cyrus’ voice boomed.

“Cyrus...” Pope Light’s eyes widened in shock.

“Gin!” Archmage Kratos muttered in shock.

The son of heaven frowned at this and quickly shot into the sky, heading toward the battlefield!

Your majesty!

Many officials cried out in shock. None of them expected these two even though they suspected them. To think three guardian spirit hosts were hiding under his nose in the capital for so long! As a great king, this was a massive insult to him!

“HEAR MY ORDER, WIPE OUT THESE TRAITORS NOW AND PUT AN END TO THIS FIGHTING, EVERYONE!” The voice of the son of heaven boomed violently and all the officials shot into the sky without hesitation!

A fierce battle was about to begin

...........

Boom!

A massive golden sword with an emerald crystal on its hilt that has countless ruins engraved on it. Compared to Kaido, the golden blade was like a small mountain, descending on him like the divine judgment of the gods!

Seeing this Kaido dared not continue his pursuit of Damon and quickly turned to face the golden guardian weapon with a frown on his face.

Swoosh!

The light radiating from his mighty sun slowly began fading as they all surged toward Gin who was like a black hole, consuming all forms of energy around!

Aaah!

Kaido screamed in fear as he felt the energy within his body surging out without care! His cold gaze turned to Gin who stood in the skies with his eyes wide open, revealing his crystal blue eyes glowing fiercely!

“SINCE YOU ALL COURT DEATH, I WILL GRANT YOU YOUR WISH!” Kaido growled furiously as he began charging toward the divine guardian weapon and the two figures standing in the skies.

This was the problem with the hosts of the guardian spirits. As the new god, their abilities far surpassed that of anyone at their level and probably above. The uniqueness of their abilities made it possible for them to take on foes of a higher level, that was why Damon could hold his own against the four great armies.

If these three really joined hands and created a kingdom of their own, even with the cosmic spirit hosts here, it will be difficult to deal with them.

“Hmph! You don’t have what it takes!” Gin sneered disdainfully as his body let out a fierce light and all the energy absorbed was released in the form of an orange arc!

“This...” Kaido turned pale as he watched two incredible forces descending on him like the divine retribution of the gods!

Boom!

A fierce explosion erupted, creating a powerful shockwave that sent everything hundreds of kilometers around it trembling! Gathering all the power of a cosmic being like Kaido and releasing it at once is something even Kaido wasn’t capable of!

Bang!

When the Son of heaven arrived alongside the officials, they saw Kaido standing but his armor was in ruins, revealing bloody wounds all over his body. He stood and stared into the distance in silence.

The entire area affected by that attack had been scorched. Not even the nobles of the gyro Kingdom dared get close, they could only look in the distance too.

“They escaped...” Kaido said in a low tone.

“The vampire is with him... Cassius Blood... He didn’t just destroy the blood mountain, he subjugated it!” Kaido said with a deep frown on his face...

His voice was void of any form of pride that it once had, just intense anger and hatred!

.........

While Cyrus held on to Gin who looked terribly pale, Cassius Blood held on to the unconscious death mage with a frown on his face. Behind them were Klien and Lucy who remained silent as they watched the four from behind.

They were covered in a sphere of blood shooting through the skies.

“He said he would be okay... I was right not to trust his words” Cassius said as he gazed at the unconscious Damon with a frown.

“He could have won...” Cyrus said after a moment of silence.

“What?” Cassius was shocked and looked at Cyrus with a shocked expression.

“He would have won, he was going to trade hits with Kaido and end him but because of us, he tried to stop the fake sun. The same fake sun he used during that night five years ago that killed hundreds of thousands of vampires... if Damon didn’t try to stop it to save us, he wouldn’t have overexerted himself to this point” Cyrus explained calmly as he lowered his face.

Hearing this Cassius Blood was stunned and gazed at Damon’s unconscious face again but this time it was filled with respect.

“I guess he made the right choice.... He saved two capable people... when he first talked about conquering the entire continent and creating a single empire that can house all races and beings, I thought he was a bit too delusional... but the more I see him the more I see myself sharing this stupid dream of his” Cassius Blood laughed bitterly.

“Yea, Damon has an effect like that” Gin said with a weak smile on his face.

Even with Cyrus healing him, he was still in a terrible condition.

So far Cyrus has been examining Gin’s condition but now he wore a terrible look on his face and shot Gin another glance but this time his eyes were heavy.

“You don’t have to say it... I can feel it already...” Gin laughed bitterly.

He consumed more power than his mana circuits could handle, causing them to get damaged.

Just like Damon’s student, his cultivation has become defective all just to save Damon.

“It was necessary for me and everyone else. We would have been killed if I didn’t act. The son of heaven and the other nobles were coming.” Gin explained weakly and Cyrus nodded with a bitter smile. Of all the people here, he understood why they had to go all out.

Meanwhile, Klien stood behind with Lucy, wondering what went wrong. Right now, he felt like he didn’t belong here unlike before when all four of them did everything together. Right now, he felt left out.
