2nd Rank Has Returned - Chapter 304



304 – What I sincerely hope for-7

The most important person in winning this battle was Ariasviel.

I was already fully aware of that fact before I came.

In the last fight, Aria fought against the Demon King alone and defeated him with a single hand.

And when I realized, albeit belatedly, that time is now frozen, I realized the truth all over again.

If the wise man hadn’t connected his spirit, I was convinced that at least one person would have died right here.

[…Rios, start.]

Unlike other times, Rios could not give a straight answer to the wise man’s command.

Everything will be decided in this fight. Failure meant destruction. He had no room to fear the consequences of the strengthening magic he was currently using.

Whoa…! Short breaths were exhaled, and along with the magic, the body temperature rose rapidly. As blood circulates rapidly, the body’s strength is temporarily enhanced.

‘The blood fighting technique that my younger brother improved… I never thought I would actually be able to use it like this.’

When Leo was Raynald, he was the magic type of the Holy Blood Battle Art that he pointed to in order to prevent himself.

Doping had already been applied to Rios himself, and depending on his reaction speed, the doping trick was applied to other people in turn.

The fact that a minimal response could be achieved against the overwhelming enemy called the Demon King was thanks to the Holy Blood Fighting Art performed by Rios.

‘…Ha… Leonardo used this every time? I’m so embarrassed, I don’t even have any respect…!’

Seong-Blood Fighting was basically a self-destructive technique that was premised on risk to the body.

It was Rios’ unique magic that reduced the burden, but it was still impossible for even Leo to strengthen such a large number of people without any burden.

[Lumine, now it’s your turn.]

So the most important thing now was the role of adults. At the same time Angela blocked it, Lumine had already finished her prayer drink.

From Lumine’s wings, a feather as red as her blood was held in her hand.

The feather was imbued with sacred blood. The divine feather, reminiscent of Leo’s ‘Red Sanctuary’, flew like a dagger.

Needle liquid…!

A divinity compressed to the point where the demonic beast’s flesh evaporated, the feathers of Holy Blood Fighting were not intended for attack.

‘…The burden on my body has disappeared.’

Those who had endured the burden of the blood fighting technique with their bare bodies immediately felt their bodies becoming lighter. Growing on the body

If Rios’ Holy Blood Fighting Technique was focused on enhancing abilities, Lumine’s was truly focused on regeneration and recovery.

The synergy achieved by her ability and stability surpassed that of her creator, Leonardo.

[‘…It will definitely not be as easy as before the return.’]

Even the Demon King was wary of that combination for a moment. At least, unlike the first time, I couldn’t unilaterally ravage them with the Demon Lord.

Quaaang!! However, even they had to face their own great points directly against the Demon King, to the extent that they seemed like supporting characters.

Even though Ariasviel, the black Ariasviel, who delivered a slash at the Demon Lord so fast that he could not be seen, clearly did not materialize, Aria moved at the same speed as at the time.

The forbidden material that appeared was nothing special compared to Leo’s, but Aria Spiel’s experience when he materialized was already engraved on his body.

As she was the same person, Black Aria’s skills and experience were engraved on White Aria’s body for a brief moment.

‘A little more..!’

Aria, who had given herself a lot of strength with the fighting spirit, turned red and the blood vessels stood out all over her body. The moment she got into close combat, she couldn’t give herself any more space.

The Demon King’s body, Leonardo, undergoes repeated amputation and regeneration with only a physical slash, neither sacred nor magical.

Unlike Ren, who has no mana, Leonardo can also contain mana and magic energy in her body. The current Demon King’s vessel was self-repairing so quickly that even a fleeting blade was pushed away by the recoil of regeneration.

Passy…! Therefore, Aria increased her speed without hesitation. She used the elemental magic of lightning to stimulate her nerves with her electric shocks at each of her meridians.

She probably would have fainted from shock if she had not been double-regenerated by the Holy Blood Fighting Jutsu. A high-voltage current flowed through her body, transcending even her reaction nerves.

“[…!]”

Even the Demon King, who was admiring such close combat, hesitated for a moment at the monstrous methods. Just touching his fist paralyzes the body due to the electric current.

No matter how immortal, both Wren and Leo’s bodies basically followed the structure of a human. It may have been an ordinary magic attack, but even the Demon Lord could not help but be affected by the biological electricity that flowed so hard that it could be seen with the naked eye.

“[Why are you borrowing Leo’s method? It’s ironic.]”

This is the dual sword technique that Aria uses, as well as the s*xual fighting technique that enhances her physical abilities, and even the electric shock that maximizes her reflexes.

These were the techniques that Leo once demonstrated in front of Ariasviel.

Although the method and power were improved from the Aryan method, the person who fundamentally passed down this technique was Leonardo.

Chaeng!

“[Then, let me try it too.]”

Aria’s sword attack was withdrawn in an instant. The technique that the Demon King showed now was one of the techniques that Aria was familiar with that she had seen so far.

In some ways, it may have been a natural procedure. Hand-to-hand combat was only a fighting method suitable for a vessel called ‘Ren’, and it could not be said to be the Demon King’s main weapon.

“Not bad. “It’s much better this way.”

Just like Aria, the Demon King held up a long sword in both of her hands.

The Demon King used Leonardo’s techniques without even blinking an eye, from the magic of forming a long sword to the sword swing.

Rather, as if mocking him by saying, ‘Why did you think I couldn’t use it?’, The Demon King struck a series of blows straight into Leo’s body.

“Isn’t it paradoxical? “To use your best-trained body and skills to kill your family.”

I no longer felt a sense of discomfort in the Demon King’s words. As souls gradually entered the vessel, the Demon King was soon becoming a new Leonardo.

Even the magic and techniques he uses now have already surpassed Leo in terms of output. The lack of precision and endurance in output was the reason why the group was stuck.

“No, if you think about it, Ariasviel, isn’t it a contradiction in itself that there are two heroes?”

The Demon King concentrated his sword strikes as if Ariasviel was truly displeased. They launched an onslaught without caring about other enemies.

Anyway, if we only eliminate the warriors born through this error, they are nothing more than a bunch of insignificant people who will disperse.

“…Heh…!”

As if reading those thoughts, the Alter Blade, sharpened with dragon poison, flutters from Chris’s hand.

Dragon’s blood gushes from his body. It was dragon’s blood that was painful, but thanks to it, it became possible to move beyond this blood fighting technique.

Oh my gosh…!!

The Demon King hastily avoided the unexpected variable. There was a gap in the fight that focused only on the hero, and in that gap, a dagger slightly grazed my cheek.

aaah!

With a slash like a bombing raid, Ariasviel was able to turn the game around again.

‘…The body…!’

No matter how extreme the poison was, if it was a human poison, it was nothing more than a joke to the Demon King’s magic energy. Because he thought so, the Demon King focused only on the Demon King.

“Even if he is the devil…! “The dragon poison listens!”

The poison buried in the blade was an extreme poison extracted from dragon’s blood, and no matter how demonic he was, it was capable of causing paralysis.

It was only a brief moment of paralysis, but that was enough to bring victory to Ariasviel.

Wow!!

After digging a tunnel in the ground, Ain tore the Demon King to pieces with the dragon’s claws.

Up until now, the limbs and torso would have been separated just by counterattacking, but now even if it were not Aria, she could attack.

Dragon blood poison was also secreted from Ain’s fingernails. By mixing up the combinations so that they could not be deciphered right away, the devil’s movements were gradually blocked.

The Demon King was quickly decomposing even the dragon blood poison in his body. Now that there was a gap, it was the right time to push forward.

A melee continues, led by Ariasviel. It was a wild fire reminiscent of a storm, but the center of focus was clearly determined.

If the one in the eye of the typhoon was the Demon King, Leonardo, he was cut to pieces by such an onslaught that he would have died without being able to withstand.

‘If it’s great, then it’s great.’

Nevertheless, there was no killing intent. The Demon King, who was receiving all the attacks from the center, felt his own respect and astonishment at that fact.

They truly saved the world and only used their power to save Leonardo, and were not concentrating their minds on destroying the Demon King.

“[…Ha…]”

Accordingly, Leonardo’s resistance becomes stronger. The fact that this scene was intentionally made visible gives Leonardo hope.

Even as the decomposition of the dragon blood poison was coming to an end, the recovery of abilities was slow.

Whether externally or internally, the concept of the devil seemed to have come together and was simultaneously pressed.

‘Now…! ‘Let’s give it a try!’

[Okay, I’ll shape it…!]

{Okay. Hero!}

The warrior, the wise man, and the saint have already joined forces.

In the midst of her storm, Angela spread her wings. Holy light poured from her wings, temporarily increasing the abilities of her companions.

The reason I didn’t use this blessing for the first time was because I had reached my limit.

“[…Sigh…!]”

It was to create a temporary gap for the devil. If the enemy’s abilities suddenly increase and your own abilities suddenly decrease, even if you are a demon lord, you will be embarrassed.

[Now!]

In a split second, the black stone Ariasviel was holding turned into a spear. In order to stab the devil’s soul as much as possible, a long spear was physically more suitable than a long sword.

Boom! Fuuu! Pow!

In order to pour out magic that could be manifested even if only slightly, with high firepower, a structure similar to a spear or staff was effective.

The magic of the elements pours in at once, and Aria’s elemental magic unleashes an explosion by maximizing the composition of the circle in the wise man’s magic.

There was no way such magic would be effective as an attack.

Although he does not ignore mana like Ren, Leonardo is also a true wizard, and with the demon lord’s magic power added, it was just a prank that would not even cause a scratch.

Quaaa!

That kind of child’s play was enough. It was important that the magic create a smokescreen for both mana and vision.

Thanks to that moment, Aria Spiel had the opportunity to swing his holy sword in reverse.

Quad deud deuk!!

At the same time as it was swung, a beam of light was ejected all at once, and the rays of higher power than those normally emitted at maximum fire power split the ground.

It was not a technique used with the intention of attacking when held in reverse. This technology was more of a propellant and an escape route.

With the driving force of the light, Ariasviel rushed forward like a ray of light. His skin was torn apart by the wind and pressure, and he never let go of the holy sword or the black spear.

The Demon King’s regenerative power was so absolute that it could be called restoration, even though it was a battle with a javelin.

So, you should not stop charging while holding the spear until the end.

They even give up defense and put all their power into the tip of the spear.

“[This is…!]”

I reached it.

It is completely different from the previous slashes.

Ariasviel was convinced by his senses.

It pierced his skin, cut his fascia, pinched his bones, and pierced his soul.

Now all that remains is for the wise man to implement his method…

“…Very disappointing.”

That’s how the Demon King reacted.

I responded by pushing the tip of his spear with my fingertip.

Even though time did not stop, my senses felt as if they were frozen.

“Why are you doing that? “Is it unexpected?”

Leonardo’s appearance itself had changed. Beyond bleaching her hair white, her transformation as a species began.

“Or is this your first time seeing necromancy?”

Black horns grew on his head, and black dragon scales grew on his body. Demonic energy emanated from the pores of the skin, repeatedly protecting and remodeling the body.

It looked like a demon, but at the same time, it was recognized that it was not a complete demon.

“This image of Leonardo is very familiar to me.”

The Demon King turned the vessel named Leonardo into a half-dragon again.

Leonardo’s body itself is used as a catalyst, with a purity that cannot be compared to that of Chris or Ein.

Quang.

The demonic sword struck down like that made a dull sound on the ground, and everyone present fell into the abyss and was swept away by the rising demonic energy.

Everything became cold.
