Chapter 709: Assault on Death
"You four truly are powerful even in my own kingdom were my power is at its highest you four are still able to fight." Even though Death had been continuously attacked and destroyed he just kept on coming back.
[We have distracted him, you guys go and get back the heart!] Tenma communicated with Skatt through telepathy.
[Alright brother, try not to die.]
[You too.]
...
"Even if you destroy a portion of my kingdom it will quickly regrow and even expand. My Kingdom houses the souls of living beings throughout the infinite multiverse, so it will grow as endlessly as the infinite multiverse. Since I can exist as long as my kingdom exists, and since my kingdom is endless, then that means I am endless. So there is no point in fighting me since you cannot win."
"You keep on saying the same thing over and over again, why do I think you\'re hiding something? I think that there are other ways to destroy you and you\'re just misleading us." Frieda who was speeding through the darkness spoke.
"I really did underestimate you humans a bit too much. Well, it is true that there are other ways to kill me other than destroying my kingdom but I doubt you\'ll be able to do it. Not even the powerful Dragon Clan would be able to kill me, even if the mother of all Dragons comes to my domain it\'s not sure who will win and who will lose."
"Are you also underestimating us Dragons a bit too much!" Blod in his true dragon form roared as he unleashed another powerful attack.
"Why are you so mad? I have faced hundreds of Dragons for eons and I know your strengths and weaknesses so well. Why do you think that your mother has never tried to get her heart from me, it\'s because she can\'t."
"NO!!! It\'s because of you disgraceful Gods that ambushed her. If it was just you then my mother would\'ve destroyed you long ago! Since my mother can\'t come here herself, then I her child will take back what is rightfully hers!"
Blod attacked more fiercely than before. Unlike his other brother who uses the Dragon language for spells to attack, Blod likes using his teeth and claws for attacking. Even when he fights in his humanoid form he attacks like a wild beast.
The more excited Blod became the more powerful his attacks he no longer dodged Death\'s attacks as he continued on his berserker state. The attacks Death did not only damage the body but also the soul, it was a good thing Blod was one of the stronger Dragons, and both his body and soul were above most beings so he was able to withstand multiple attacks by Death.
Following his brother Tenma also started getting serious as he spoke the language of the Dragons placing buffs on his teammates, and healing their injuries, not only that but every chance he saw he would also attack.
Frieda also ramped up her speed, as she now had multiple spells placed on her increasing her overall abilities she had entered a mysterious realm of speed. This was a speed she could never reach by herself, in this world she felt like she was beyond everything, but then she clearly saw everyone\'s fight and was surprised.
If it was before she reached this level of speed what she saw was just a simple fight, but the real fight was happening at such a speed that she could not perceive before. Frieda could finally see the true fight that was happening which was much more intense than what she was seeing before. It would seem that everyone was moving at such high speeds after learning this Frieda was dejected.
\'Even though I already knew it from before but... It turns out I really was the weakest...\' Frieda showed a mocking smile on her face but then she shook her head and concentrated even more. \'In the end, it doesn\'t really matter, all I need to do is what I can do.\'
On the other hand, the other human Erste also felt the buffs applied to him, but he felt only a little bit stronger. Still, Erste who had been slashing everything in sight was finding the entire fight a little boring.
\'Able to control one\'s soul, has attacks that can damage the soul directly, if I were to be hit once it might be over for me. There\'s also the fact that this Ancient One has some pseudo-immortality, by all means, this should be an awesome fight but it\'s turning out to be disappointing.
This Ancient One is not fighting properly he\'s just letting us attack him without defending, and sometimes he will attack if he sees a chance. It\'s pretty obvious he just wants to tire us out before finishing us, what a boring strategy.\'
Erste could only sigh as he wished that the others would quickly find the heart so that he could end this boring fight. While he was getting more and more disappointed, Erste suddenly heard a familiar voice that he hadn\'t heard in years. It was the voice of the person he had been looking for, it was a voice that he could never forget.
[Erste?]
That was Elena\'s voice, the very second Erste came to that conclusion he also came to another one, a fact that he wished wasn\'t true. If the voice he was hearing truly was Elena\'s and he was now in the kingdom of death then... For the first time in his entire life, Erste\'s courage faltered as he didn\'t want to turn around to see the truth.
