Chapter 568 General Nickon Valethorn

They couldn't see anything until a pair of violet eyes opened, and a row of razor-sharp teeth appeared as a ten-foot-tall person looked down at them. Archer enjoyed seeing their reaction, which ranged from horrified to stunned reactions from the soldiers.

But he didn't give them time to think as he went to work. Suddenly, the shadowy tendrils emerged from his form, moving toward the soldiers like snakes. His dark tendrils sliced through the air silently.

The soldier's eyes widened in terror, and they raised their weapons defensively. The mages tried to cast a shield to protect the soldiers. He quickly cast Null Void with a chuckle, which cut them off from using their mana.

They could only use physical attacks but soon knew it was useless as Archer was made up of shadows. The first tendril struck, piercing through a soldier's armor with a swift, almost ghostly precision.

The soldier convulsed as if touched by an icy hand, collapsing to the ground as the blood splashed over the men next to him. Panic spread like wildfire among the ranks as more tendrils emerged, seeking their next targets.

His tendrils moved wildly, avoiding the soldier's weapons and striking lethally. Archer created the dance of darkness with a sinister laugh. Fear gripped the army as they struggled to comprehend the nature of the new threat.

Amaryllis watched, her heart pounding, as Archer created chaos. The soldiers, now fully aware of the unseen menace, fought desperately against an enemy they couldn't see. Shadows twisted and turned, making them unable to anticipate the next strike.

The leader of the Battle Witches watched on as he went on a rampage and took lives like a death god. She realized that Archer was too powerful and promised herself not to make him her enemy.

If he were to join the dragons in the war against them, the Blackfire family would be remembered in old books and stories passed down by hunted witches. She shook her head because she'd already been told he was uninterested.

While Amaryllis was thinking to herself, Archer tore into the soldiers like a whirlwind of shadowy claws and evil-looking teeth that sliced off limbs and bit the heads of others. The emperor watched this with a look of shock and horror.

'What devil has descended? It's like the stories we used to hear when children.' Rylan thought to himself as he witnessed the slaughter of his soldiers.

The biggest army he could muster in such a short time was being butchered in front of him, and there was nothing he could do. That's when he saw the first prince charge toward Archer, who took out a group of soldiers by cutting them in half.

Thanks to the emblem on his chest, he turned to see the young man wearing imperial armor. The prince rushed toward him, holding an expensive-looking sword. With a grin, he let the prince approach.

Archer quickly swiped at his legs, separating them from his body. Causing the prince to drop to the ground while screaming. He picked up the flailing human and saw a man dressed like an emperor.

'You're going nowhere.' He thought to himself.

He quickly cast Blink to appear in front of the emperor's group with the still-screaming first prince. When the group of humans saw this, they became angry but soon realized that shadowy monsters appeared all around them.

When Rylan saw his son, his thoughts were in chaos, and he didn't know what he did to deserve such a situation. He asked in a shocked voice. ''What did we ever do to you?''

Archer grinned at the man before informing him of his reason for being there. ''You attacked Hemera and Hecate's homes, a big no-no. They are my girls; I will do anything to see them smile. I hate it when they're unhappy, and if they find out I did nothing as their homes fell, they would be really upset.''

Once more shadow creatures appeared, Archer asked in a curious voice. ''Is this your son? By the look of concern he seems to be.''

Before the man could answer, the Battle Witch approached Archer, and when she did, he saw a mage cast a spell, and by the amount of mana going into it, he knew she would be hurt by it.

Archer reacts and wraps the witch in his shadows, which causes her to feel warm and fuzzy. She ended up in his arms while he butchered the soldier who attacked them. He returned to his humanoid form while holding a shocked Amaryllis, who missed the comforting feeling.

The emperor saw this, and his face paled even more as Archer summoned thousands of shadow creatures. With one word, he put an end to the whole army. ''Kill them all. Bring me their bodies.''

When the shadows heard that, they vanished, and shortly after, screaming could be heard as blood went flying. The field outside the capital was covered in a sea of blood that fertilized the land.

Archer smiled when seeing this before looking at the emperor and second prince. He brought the battered first prince out from the shadows, kicking and screaming. When the two humans saw this, their reactions told him all he needed to know.

Once the prince stopped struggling, Archer transformed the top half of his body into his shadow form, giving the imperial family a creepy grin, which made the second prince soil his pants. When he smelt that, he decided the boy would have to be taught a lesson.

He quickly dealt with the first prince by eating him. When the body vanished into the darkness, he used Soul Sunder and ripped the young man's soul apart. He absorbed all the information he needed, which would come in handy.

When the emperor saw this, his heart broke but wasn't given any time to think as an Ettin appeared behind Archer, who he ordered to grab the man. He would give Rylan a front-row seat to the destruction of his empire.

After that, he let Amaryllis down with a charming smile while walking toward the city as his beasts finished off the remaining and started humming to himself. The Ettin held Rylan as it followed behind him.

As Archer approached the city, a middle-aged man suddenly appeared before him, causing him to halt. He sensed the formidable energy emanating from the man and signals Amaryllis to step back, readying himself for an impending fight.

The man stepped forward and introduced himself. ''I am General Nickon Valethorn. You've beaten our empire and taken our lands. Free my brother, and you will never see us again.''

Archer narrowed his eyes at the man and realized he was the same Rank as him and could put up a good fight. With that, he vanished from the spot after taking a step to reappear in front of the general.

He threw a heavy punch that Nickon blocked but was sent skidding backward. Archer didn't leave it at that and opened several portals, and large snakes flew out of it and bit into the man's limbs.

They held him still momentarily before he resumed his barrage of punches. Nickon was bombarded by the sudden onslaught, unable to mount a counterattack as Archer cast Blink, darting around unpredictably.

But Archer wasn't finished and summoned a dozen Nightmare Assassin Ants that lunged at the general, who was taken aback by the sudden appearance of the beasts. They started attacking him.

Nickon was slightly overwhelmed but started killing the ants. Then, Archer appeared before him and used his tail to take out his legs. The general jumped, but one of the assassin ants pierced his tight.

Archer took advantage and lunged forward to bite into the man's neck. The ants pierced Nickon's limbs. He tore into the general, who was starting to get dizzy but soon felt a pair of claws rip through his boy.

Soon, the last line of defense against Archer was dangling in the air with blood spurting from him. He noticed the man looked at him as the life faded, but he smiled as he cast Soul Sunder on the general.

He ripped away Nickon's soul and ate it. He tossed the useless memories but kept all the useful ones that would help in the future.
