Become Tyrant On My Own Way
Chapter 227 - ASBRINGER
With the escort of Adam and Vierra in front, as well as Olo and Nunu in the rear, Talia, Luciana, and the children of Helios made it out safely from the palace that had been besieged by the demons.
“Your Majesty!”
“Your Majesty the Empress, both Her Majesty the Queen, as well as the princes and princesses have managed to survive it all!”
“Ah, Your Majesty please be here.”
They finally crossed paths with the palace soldiers guarding outside so that they could all breathe a sigh of relief.
“Kak Vierra? Where are you going?”
Seeing Vierra who was still summoning her sword aura was about to go back into the palace full of demons, Talia who was afraid of anything happening to Vierra also tried to intercept him.
“We still need to save Her Majesty The Queen Mother. It seems that he has not yet come out of the place.”
At that time, it was only realized that Theia Madama Meglovia had not been at the evacuation site.
Talia could say nothing more.
He's worried about Vierrra.
But as much as he worried about Vierra, so did Mother Theia.
Talia was aware that among them, it was indeed Vierra who was the most qualified to save the Queen Mother, while she was unlikely since she was weak.
Where Talia was already at her threshold and that too she could only use a mere holy protection magic.
He could fight a little, but obviously it would not be strong enough to face the demons.
That's why Talia can't say anything.
“At least take Adam with you.”
It was Luciana who then offered her personal bodyguard to help Vierra.
“No need. Among the people here, he was the greatest. I can't possibly take it since it will drastically lower your combat power. Here it seems to have been safe, but we do not know what will happen in the future.”
“Then let me...”.
“You're quiet too, Olo. Aren't you your number one patron?”
“…”
Olo tried to offer himself, but was immediately rejected outright by Vierra who actually gave an attack of unexpected words back to Olo which immediately made him wrong.
Finally, Vierra single-handedly re-entered the palace.
slash, slash, slash.
One by one the demons that came to him slashed at him as if cutting tofu.
slash, slash, slash.
There was another sound of slashing.
But this time, it was not from Vierra's actions.
The room temperature instantly cools.
From there, Vierra was able to guess what happened, then her guess was right.
As soon as Vierra looked carefully, apparently there had been ice golems belonging to her former sister-in-law who had now become her husband.
Behind him, there was also the Mother of Theia who wanted to be sought by Vierra who was with other ice golem creatures with a slimmer and smaller size.
“Theia's Mother!”
Vierra shouted and immediately rushed to Theia's mother.
“Vierra? That sword?”
“Thank God Theia's mother also survived.”
Vierra immediately let out tears of relief while hugging the mother-in-law, ignoring the surprised expression of Mother Theia who had just first seen the sword aura Vierra even though she had also known before the secret of Vierra's ability.

That scene was in real time sent through the consciousness of Helios who was in the demon continent of Armpemis.
Helios smiled with relief after learning that all members of his family had survived.
“So apparently. Those useless cockroaches failed to do such an easy task.”
“You take too lightly humans, Ozazil.”
“Hahahahaha. In that battered state, you're still haughty, hero. But that's also what makes me so not tired of fighting against you.”
“If it were like that, I would still finish them off right now. No, not just your family, but all the creatures on Gaia's face.”
“Take it easy, I'll show you a sword dance that will take your life, Ozazil.”
trang, trang, trang.
The Ashbringer Sword and the Djienn Sword again clashed against each other.
Ozazil had absolutely no idea of the function of the sword artifact that had always been used by heroes from generation to generation.
Helios had prepared for his ultimate attack which he believed would be able to kill the body of Demon King Ozazil's puppet which contained only one tenth of a thousandth of its original strength.
What Helios needs right now is time.
It is now the toughest struggle to buy time for as long as possible.
As long as the time required was enough, Helios' chances of victory would increase drastically.
That certainly does not guarantee his victory, but at least the chances will greatly increase.
But in a situation where there was a glimmer of hope in his eyes, as if aware of it, Ozazil immediately threw him away by giving Helios a deeper despair.
“What the fuck? Didn't your doll's body come from a human?”
“You think for ten thousand years I didn't modify it to make it comfortable for me to live?”
“You said expect an interesting fight, but it doesn't seem so. Otherwise, you won't increase your power limit.”
“Hero, do you know what that interesting fight means?”
“The fight is only said to be interesting when you use your optimal strength to fight desperately for the sake of coming out as a living in battle.”
“If I hold back for the sake of adjusting to the opponent, it is no longer an interesting fight, but rather I am playing my opponent.”
“So if you can't match me in my form, then there's no point in me keeping you alive, hero.”
Ozazil said, looking down on Helios.
No, it's not sarcasm, it's a literal meaning.
Ozazil's size had just changed to the size of a giant while staring at Helios who was parallel to the tip of his foot.
-swing.
Ozazil floated his large Djienn Sword, adjusting his size around the ground where Helios rested.
The ground instantly wavered so that Helios used her aura to float into the air.
Helios collected as much water vapor from the air as possible to make ice cubes in addition to physical protection for him since it was so polluted on the demon continent that it would be difficult to extract pure mana for the sake of forming an aura.
-trades, trash.
Helios looked for a crack through the swing of the Djienn Sword to pierce the shoulders of the giant Demon King Ozazil.
The automatic Ashbringer Sword Encounter was no longer able to withstand the Djienn Sword whose size had become a giant anyway.
But his now much smaller body size not only gives Helios a loss, but also an advantage since thus, he can move more agilely than Ozazil, plus Ozazil increasingly has many blind spots.
That is now the strategy of attacking Helios turned into a guerrilla attack tactic, like a mosquito that wants to suck human blood.
Ozazil is definitely getting stronger.
But as strong as any rock will one day be weathered by raindrops.
All that Helios needed right now was to buy time until the power of the sword artifact could be activated.
The present circumstances in which Ozazil's agility decreases as his body size increases are clearly more favorable.

“Ukh. This it? It's from Master's, isn't it? I need to get there to protect her. But how am I supposed to get past those thousands of demons? In added..”.
-shuuur.
Like lightning, the horn grabbed Albert.
Albert managed to dodge so that the attack hit the ground.
But the land that he managed to occupy actually collapsed with a very wide radius so that Albert could no longer see the end.
“Master.”
Albert was on his threshold.
