Become Tyrant On My Own Way
Chapter 70 – PARTY HELIOS VS WITCH
Helios was stunned when the woman introduced herself as the third member of the Demon King's witch. Not only was it due to the fact that for the first time Helios met someone who introduced herself as a witch, but more than that, Helios was more surprised at the name introduced by the witch.
A woman named Angele with the appearance of my eyes and distinctive yellow skin, especially has a silver hair color curls and earlobes at both ends are split.
Inevitably, Helios could only think of one person in his mind. It was Angele Rosse Barthey. An unforgettable figure from the history of the continent, the cause of the destruction of the ancient empire that has survived for thousands of years that used to rule the southern continental plains before the establishment of the Kingdom of Meglovia and several other kingdoms with a plague that was breathed into the continental plains known as black death's.
But that figure should have been a figure who lived about five hundred years ago. No human can live that long. Moreover, based on history, the first king of the Kingdom of Meglovia, Irgard Sun Meglovia, had killed him and his body was drowned in cold sea water deep in a chest.
There is no way that the figure in front of Helios is the same Angele figure as he is known in history. They must be different figures.
However, the witch's next words soon shattered Helios's beliefs.
“I don't think that you are so different from your ancestors who almost killed me, the Irgard. If you notice, you're even more like the first hero, Aries.”
Helios's eyes suddenly widened at the words of Angele. Angele's identity that may be true from the past five hundred years is the main trigger, but the second speech of Angele can not be ignored.
The identity of the first hero. All the people of the present-day Kingdom of Meglovia, not only for the Kingdom of Meglovia, but also throughout the continent, believe that the first hero is the Rizard.
But this woman who may have come from five hundred years ago, just before the Meglovia Kingdom officially stood after the southern human race of the continent survived the black death disaster, mention that the identity of the first hero is Aries according to the facts.
Does that mean the history of the first twisted hero began five hundred years ago, right after the Kingdom of Meglovia and many other kingdoms stood? Only one thing Helios could think of back then, it was around the time the sacred temple also began to stand. If so, is there any connection between the history of the first hero starting to twist towards the establishment of the sacred temple?
Helios was eager to find out about it, but she realized that there was no way the enemy before her would be willing to reveal any information to her. He also focused on making sure in advance about the possibility that Angele was indeed the same person as the woman who created the plague that destroyed the continent five hundred years ago.
“Are you Angele Rosse Barthey, a noblewoman who had destroyed the ancient empire five hundred years ago with a plague?”
Hearing Helios' question, Angele smiled. It was likely that he was happy that there were still people who remembered his name even after five hundred years had passed.
“Yes, that's right. I'm Angele Rosse Barthey, the witch who created the plague.”
Everyone was shocked after hearing the confirmation answer from the witch.
“Why are you still alive after being killed by my ancestors five hundred years ago? And also, isn't your age more than 500 years? Why are you still alive?”
“Oho, this is interesting. You are completely different from Irgard. I thought you were going to ask me why I could kill so many innocent people just for the sake of fulfilling my angry outburst against an empire that did not understand my charming art masterpiece. Beyond a doubt, you are asking a logical question.”
“Make anything I ask meaningless questions. I don't want to understand the feelings of a sadistic slayer like you. Just answer my question.”
It is seen that Angele was a little disappointed at Helios' cold answer. But in the end, Angele still answered the question.
“I am alive all thanks to the affection of the great Demon King. In the midst of my dying after being stabbed mercilessly by Irgard, I was saved by Him. I was given immortality by him. Then after I was cast out at sea and abandoned, Cassandra saved me at the behest of Her Majesty the great Demon King.”
“Cassandra? Who is Cassandra? Is he also your witch partner?”
“It's true. He is the second. But why are you asking? Don't you guys know you guys close?”
“What's..”
“Ups, I seem to be mostly playing with you guys so much fun. I was finally able to witness firsthand the person who managed to melt the heart of the second. But what can I do, Lady Isis has told me to come back. But we can meet next time, right? So for now, I say goodbye. Oh, it seems that Lady Isis also wants to play around with you guys.”
Angele the witch immediately left without waiting for Helios' response to return leaving her alone in her curiosity.
“Where might I know a witch?! Are you all happy to play me?! Whether it's the Demon King, whether it's holy ramalah, you're all savages!”
“Master, relax.”
Albert immediately approached his master to calm him down while also being on standby with the others.
The collection of meat also shows its solid form again. It was a beast that resembled the shape of a green-colored dragon.
Codi immediately dashed towards the object.
“No, Codi, stop!”
However, Helios immediately stopped Codi's steps by placing an ice barrier right in front of him.
“Ukh. What are you doing?!”
“Quiet, Codi. Don't touch the monster. The entire body of the monster was covered in an extremely poisonous mist.”
Codi bit his lips with a guilty feeling over his hunting just now.
Amidst the deadlock, it was Alice who then asked,
“Lantas, what should we do, Master?”
“Wait for me to attack.”
Helios begins his mantra ritual. In an instant, white light flashed around Helios forming magic circles with runes that had ancient writings that were no longer known to exist in modern times.
The magic circles slowly headed forward, surrounding the green dragon monster.
“Netralization, purification, separation, instant melting!”
The green dragon monster began to look in pain. His entire body seemed to melt, seemingly unable to maintain that form anymore. Little by little, the green-colored fog that originally enveloped the body of the green dragon also disappeared, dispersing into the surrounding air. After a while, the green skin of the dragon that was in the process of melting became apparent after the green-colored fog that enveloped it disappeared.
Then with the words of Helios,
“Now, attack!”
Albert and Codi ran in a regular formation that looked compact even without prior training. Albert bersalto then attacked the top, while Codi focused on slashing the lower area. And as a closing strike, it was a typical Nunu move.
“Explosion!”
The monster burned in a very hot flame until finally leaving only the remains of a formless melt.
Helios' party had grown to be even stronger so the plague dragon mock monsters were no longer a problem for them.
All the party members looked delighted at the improvement of their abilities and even included Codi who was only a temporary party member, except for Helios. Helios was well aware that beyond the plague dragon's mock monster, there were at least two more dangerous figures who would potentially become his enemies in the future.
The first was someone with plague magic where Helios suspected that it was Angele.
The second was a person with a talent for manipulating the shape of objects who had never shown his figure to Helios before.
The existence of these two figures had formed the plague dragon clone monster.
Toxins that damage the flow of mana as well as hard bodies that can only be scratched with adamantite. The monster could be defeated by them, all thanks to Helios's unraveling magic spell that deciphered the monster's magic body to become more lenient as well as neutralizing its poison.
Thankfully, the spell formula applied by the witch itself is still relatively easy to decipher.
If not for the new skill that Milanda had taught him, Helios was one hundred percent sure that his party would have been destroyed by their creature.
