MONOCHROME: Choice Of Destiny
Chapter 38 The End?

I ran towards the source of the magic when I got there were only the corpses of the soldiers where.

In front of me stood a figure of a man with an angelic aura around him.

Behind it was a ruined palace and there were also more bandits there who were clearly this bandit looked just as strong as the man I had previously fought.

They were all wearing the same clothes that were prison prisoners so it was likely that they were all bandits being held inside the palace.

There are dozens of them and the man is very strong, I might be able to win if I fight one on one but if those bandits come to fight I will be very difficult.

I wonder what I should do now whether to move forward now or wait for Zep and the others.

I just stood there and the man just stood there.

I took out my two swords to stand guard if I had to fight them all at once.

The man responded by pulling out his sword then walking a few steps forward.

"You alone? I heard that you were always with a purple-haired man and a woman with green hair."

Where'd he ever hear of me? well I'm quite famous in the capital so it might just get to the ears of the bandits.

"It looks like I came on time."

Zep appeared while being filled with blood, it seemed like it was the blood of the bandits killed by him.

"The heart of this man is quite strong."

"I know."

Now we're both together so I'm a little more confident now.

"Yeah!"

A scream was heard behind me followed by an explosion.

When the smoke was gone someone stood in front of the bandit.

It was the person I had seen before and right now the two of them were fighting swords.

The bandit thrust his sword making the man retreat.

"I'll fight that guy you can hold the bandits behind him."

I did not answer him and instead glanced at Zep because I knew enough that this bandit leader was strong and there was no way this man could defeat him.

"You help him, I'll hold the others down."

"All right."

"Take this."

Zep throwing two swords at me was a black and white sword.

It was a great sword.

"I'll explain how great the sword will be."

"No need, I know that this is an incredible sword."

"Let's start."

The man standing beside me spoke and we used unification.

The man also used it and now his armor became more complex and turned into full armor.

The bandit leader seemed to be going serious as well as his magic power exploded and gathered behind him in the form of wings.

"Before that I wanted to know where the green-haired lady you've always been?"

"Why are you looking for him?."

"If I answer, will you answer my question as well?"

"It doesn't seem to."

"It's up to me to just catch you guys to lure him out."

We were all silent indicating the fight was about to start.

We both attacked simultaneously towards the bandits and the bandits did the same.

Dozens of bandits behind him also came forward.

I attacked with one sword because it was more balanced than using two swords at once.

And besides now I feel that my light magic is already very weak when compared to my dark magic.

moreover, light magic was useless against fighting against angels who used light magic as well.

Although without communication we can fight with a good enough cooperation where one of us will attack first to make a gap then the other will attack by utilizing the gap.

But unfortunately the bandit was so agile that he was able to avoid most of our attacks at the last moment.

We continued to fight, several times the bandits would try to interfere but his head would instantly float before reaching us due to Zep's attack.

Therefore we can focus on fighting their leader at full strength.

As expected of an angel he could use a spear of light like the previous one although it was quite weak in comparison.

The dangerous thing was that the spear was extremely fast so it had already landed before you could sense it.

Well that's not a big deal for me because I've been practicing to anticipate this.

But this made me recall the history books I had read where humans and demons had to work together to fight the gods.

There it is mentioned that the soldiers of the gods are angels but I did not expect that one of them was this strong.

If a figure this strong numbered in the millions how could humans and demons survive.

Especially now that humans worship gods which means there is a possibility of them cooperating.

Stop thinking that I jumped backwards and shot a blood spear towards the angel.

The two collided and my spear came forward as the victor and hit the angel's shoulder.

After researching for quite a long time the blood magic was not strong enough in terms of strength but was extremely deadly in other respects.

For example, a very deadly poison, you can imagine what happens if a very deadly poison flows in your blood.

It can also be used to create a situation where the person affected by this attack will have excessive blood in his body that will make you destroyed.

moreover, all the living beings in this world have blood in their bodies and if they were to bleed it in any other way they would still die from the loss of blood or poison that was still flowing in in body.

I got goosebumps myself while training this magic to monsters.

But this magic always makes me very tired and sleepy after using it and it turns out the answer is in the magic media itself.

Normally magic will be active if we manipulate the environment according to the element of the great spirit but there is no such thing as the great spirit of blood so what is needed to activate this magic?

Yep it is blood, this magic needs blood as a medium to activate it so if I use it it will reduce my blood count and if it continues to do I will die from lack of blood.

Hmm so I thought, what if I use the blood of others as a medium? I tried to do some experiments using my blood, the blood of others, and the blood of monsters.

Compared to everything the best is monster blood because if I use poisonous monster blood as a medium then the poison will be directly incorporated in my magic attribute.

I collected a lot of dangerous monster blood inside my dimensional ring so I could make use of it.

While the demon blood was clean enough it became less deadly but the good thing about it was that it could be obtained anywhere even from my own enemies.

So I just need to use their blood as a medium to activate magic that will eventually kill themselves.

Another advantage is that this magic does not require a lot of mana and power in its use as long as there is blood around.

And now there's blood where because there's a war going on.

The angel vomited blood.

He retreated then looked at me in great astonishment as if he did not understand what was happening.

Without letting him think I was launching another attack.

The blood he spilled turned into dozens of thin thorns and pierced his body from below.

The angel was pierced with a throat and filled with thorns that stuck all over his body until it looked like a hedgehog.

The angel vomited blood once more before the blood reached the ground it had already turned into a spear and directly pierced it right in the abdomen.

Not missing this opportunity The man had come forward and launched a final attack with his powerful slash.

It was just a single slash but made the angel chop into pieces then turn into particles of light and disappear.

Around there were still quite a number of bandits and there were still dozens of them wandering around the city to make a mess.

Well it was a knight's duty so I sat on the ground.

Although it was not as tired as the previous one but it still required very good control to use it so I was quite tired.

The bandits who had been gathered around us started running around frantically trying to escape.

Zep also came towards me and sat down tiredly.

While the man had already disappeared probably went to attack the bandits.

After this long fight ended I became a little calm but it did not last long.

I just realized that there was another creature heading towards us.

That's pretty strong.

Without even guessing I already knew what it was because it was already within my point of view.

There were dozens of wyverns flying towards us and there were even other monsters on the ground.

I just remembered something I forgot!

There were two things that disappeared - monsters and bandits.

Bandits have appeared so the question is the monster that was silent from earlier.

And it came like a flood when we were all exhausted.
