Become A Human In Another World
ACT 2: Chapter 54 - Before Everything Ends
"A-ah, I seem to be overreacting. The city is destroyed now. I wonder, can this be called successful?" A man in black robes floated above the city of Eldergale.
The robe was unnatural, as it was made from Dark Magic. It was obviously very powerful, no need to be asked again.
Moreover, it was seen that he could actually float without using a wyvern, just by using his robe.
He rode a wyvern, a monster said to be a relative of a dragon.
The Wyvern not only calmed down up there, but also fired several fireballs to destroy the city of Eldergale.
With just one shot, the house and wall of the house were destroyed, flat on the ground. Even though the average house uses wood, it still counts as a very strong attack.
The once beautiful city was destroyed without leaving anything. His former glory is now blackened, as well as its citizens.
There was almost nothing left, even if it was a miracle.
But, a miracle is something that hurts after hope.
"Actually if there was a 10 or 12-year-old boy who could survive, maybe I would take him as my man, tie him into a slave. But past the age of 15, I turned it down. Adults aren't my type, anyway." The man still clicked his tongue.
"In this way, my task is done. I wonder if my rank in the [Ten Apostle of Demon God] rose?" he played dark magic in his hands, shaping them into fireworks.
Fireworks are beautiful, but they are terrible. Just a small spark from him alone had already caused an incredible amount of destruction.
"And also, this is so boring! I thought there would be some resistance going on here, because I heard earlier that the little monsters I sent out always disappeared!" Shouted the man while raising both hands.
Unfortunately, the person he was referring to was leaving, and he had not even reached the city at the moment.
"If there is anyone who can kill that monster easily, then surely I, this great Gordo will come and become his opponent. Isn't that a great honor?" He's shattering bahak.
Even so, his ability could not be underestimated. His ability is really in accordance with the big talk.
That man is Gordo. He was the 10th member of the [Ten Apostle of Demon God]. Because of this, she is often called Tennie by her seniors.
The power he had, was to control dark magic, making him whatever he wanted to be.
No one knew where he got that great power from, but all he knew was that it was a terrifying ability.
For example now, he made a puppet of dark magic, which could even move on its own to destroy the city.
In addition, the reserves of dark magic are very much, and arguably unlimited, because actually dark magic is created from hatred that exists throughout the world, and Gordo gets his power from there.
In other words, when there was still hatred in this world, his abilities were limitless.
Although he looked so strong, he was still considered weak by some of his seniors.
"Maybe I better destroy this whole city, huh? Just count destroying the evidence. I can tell the cult that I found a powerful opponent and destroyed it here." Gordo said slowly, then raised his hand.
"I really don't want anyone to survive this city. That's so troublesome!" he spread both hands.
From both of his hands came out some terrifying black objects. It fell to the ground slowly, so it was like falling from the sky.
It slowly formed a body, with a club' in its hands. The 5-meter-tall monster also rose up, like it had just woken up from its long slumber.
He stood up straight, as if ready to take orders.
"Blow up this city if everything is dead! I'm tired of being here!" Gordo shouted, giving the monster an order.
Gordo turned around, then pulled the rope on Wyvern, ordering him to leave.
It's just, he went to too soon. Either luck or bad luck he's having. Because of Ren, he came a while after Gordo left.

"Yeahhh!!" Roy who was still defending attacked the several black monsters with all his might. He is separated from Childe, when a huge monster just created by Gordo, which is a falling bomb.
And now, he had to face off against that black monster alone.
Worse, the biggest monster and the club turned its attention to Roy and the others.
"Damn! It's hard!" Roy was still desperate as he swung his greatsword. Behind him was his wife, Nina and Edna who were running to a special hiding place.
They are completely separated from Ruly, because Ruly swiftly evacuate the citizens.
Only, Ruly no one else could be evacuated.
Their situation was cornered, whereas the ones who could fight against those monster monsters were only Rank-S adventurers like Childe and Roy. It was not comparable to the number of monsters that appeared.
"[Boost Up]!" Edna who could use some support magic chanted a spell, then channeled it to Roy.
Roy was surprised, but also smiled. He quickly defeated some of the monsters that were all around him.
The small monster monster is immediately wiped out by Roy, until one of the biggest remains.
Even so, the timing of Edna's strengthening magic wasn't long, and the black monster kept coming and it was too much for Roy to handle on his own. Moreover, he had to pay attention to the two people he was protecting, this fight was getting more and more difficult.
"Ugh, if I have to die, at least they both have to survive. I'm quite worried about Syila. But there's Childe there, maybe I should pray." Roy is increasingly cornered by more and more monsters.
Nina and Edna were still running, there was a hiding place near the mountain, which could be used.
But because this attack was too sudden, the evacuation made by the Guild government became too late.
"If this continues, everyone will die. At least, I want you to survive, Edna. If this gets any worse, please. Run please. Please. I want to be a little useful." Nina stopped and shouted towards Edna.
Perhaps because the circumstances back then were too terrifying, all they had in mind was death.
"No no! We, we'll be safe. Go, mom! We must have survived. Although I don't know how Mr. Ruly is doing right now. But I'm sure!" Edna pulled her mother back to run.
("I'm sure. I'm sure!") Edna was still screaming in her heart, praying.
