THE BLACK GOD OF DEATH
CH. 118

Five Demon Arc Duke had appeared and set foot on the human mainland along with their troops. Initially the adventurers were able to overcome every demon that came out of the gate. However, after the appearance of one Demon Arc Duke everything had changed. Two S-ranked people, as well as the main members of the Holy Sword Guild were killed by one Demon Arc Duke. And now there were five Demon Arc Duke messing around on the surface.

With the appearance of the Demon Arc Duke, the situation had turned around, now the demons were very dominating the fight. All of the adventurers were greatly overwhelmed in the face of the Demon Arc Duke. Even one thing has caused many lives to be lost.

Even for Rank S adventurers, who had always boasted of their strength. Now they were nothing more than an ant being beaten by the five Demon Arc Duke. Even some members of the Holy Sword were killed for facing the fifth Demon Arc Duke.

Sinji fought against one of the Demon Arc Duke. With his speed, he was able to dodge any attacks launched by the Demon Arc Duke, as well as he was able to give a counterattack to the Demon Arc Duke who attacked him. However, every single attack he made, not a single one of those attacks could inflict injuries on the Demon Arc Duke.

It made him frustrated because the Demon Arc Duke was very difficult to deal with, and the strength of the Demon Arc Duke was too much to deal with him alone. While avoiding every sword slash from the Demon Arc Duke, Sinji muttered in his heart. " The devil is too strong... The magic energy surrounding him became an armor for him... It was impossible to face this demon alone, it would take at least two or three Rank S cooperating with each other to defeat it but... The devil is smart too... They even targeted our Healer and Support first... This is really troublesome, all plans get messed up because of them... " Sinji said in his heart. At that time, he was cornered by a demon who was very proficient in swordsmanship, even Sinji who was always called - referred to as the sword master of the Elf country, he was extremely helpless before the Arc Duke level demon.

On the other hand, Milia who intends to avenge Bion's death, fights against the red demons alone. Milia continuously slashed her sword relentlessly attacking the red devil. Despite the attack from Milia, there were no injuries suffered by the red devil. Milia was very surprised by the resilience of the red devil, it was really very strong, as if she was slashing a large wall.

The red devil easily blew Milia away with just an explosion of aura emanating from her body. At that moment Milia crashed and landed falling very hard. Milia did not believe what she had just seen, not expecting just the aura of the demon alone to throw her and hear the wound.

" What - what the devil is... His strength is absurd... " Said Milia who was lying in the ruins of the building. Instantly after he finished speaking, a red demon ran towards him very quickly.

Milia sensed danger as the red devil chased after her. He ran away to save himself. Milia who ran away, saw that there was someone who was facing a demon. Seeing that person, Milia quickly ran towards him, slashing her sword at the demon that attacked that person.

Seeing the demon that attacked him dead, the person was shocked. Suddenly Milia appeared before him which made her surprised again.

" Waaaa... Whoareyou? " Task Katashi to Milia.

" There's no time to talk long... " Reply Milia while glancing at the red devil who was still chasing her. Milia did tightly shoulder Katashi, then pulled her firmly "Human... Distract the devil! " Continue Milia while pushing Katashi towards the red demon who was still chasing.

Seeing the enormous and terrifying red Devils. Katashi was shocked and frightened. " What the hell with the devil... It was so horrible, I couldn't possibly stop it! " Katashi. Just looking at him had already made Katashi lose faith.

Meanwhile, Milia seemed to be unconcerned about Katashi's ravings. Because there was bait for her to escape, Milia walked away from Katashi to save her life. As she walked away, Milia muttered in her heart "He's just a lowly human being, no one will care for him even if he dies... Heh I better go first to save myself. " Said Milia in her heart. Go leave Katashi.

Within a few steps as he left Katashi, something was flying at a very high speed. An object passed through Milia very quickly, and it was right to the right of her face, as well as slightly cutting off her hair and injuring her ears.

Milia who realized that something was passing through her very quickly, she fell silent in surprise. He felt something wet on his ear, as bright as he held it to ascertain what it was. After he held it and saw it with his own eyes, he was very surprised because what was in his hand back then was his own blood.

Milia was even more surprised to hear a very loud scream. The voice came from a red demon whose leg was pierced right on his knee by a dagger, the red devil fell while being dragged - drag because he had previously run so fast.

Someone flew quickly past Katashi. Looking at that person, Katashi was very surprised, and he immediately shouted out in delight. " Brother Xi! " Shouted Katashi happily seeing Xi coming.

While Milia was still shocked by the arrival of the white-haired young man, who came and instantly killed the red devil in one strike. The white-haired youth gave an extremely powerful kick and directly hit the head of the red demon.

From the kick, there were two active skills at once creating a very powerful explosion. The powerful explosion destroyed the ground, the rocks flew because of the strong wind from the explosion. The two skills that caused the big explosion were the Dragon Revenge Fire Kick + Fiery Step skill. Both came from an item Xi was wearing.

[Fire and death dragon twin boots] Rank: S. AGI : + 40. VIT : + 40. Skill : Dragon Revenge Fire Kick: Shattering feet to the ground, and turning the designated area full of exploding fire - an explosion from underground. Skill : Death breath urge: Stripping a foot on the ground, and giving a powerful wind thrust that mixes with the aura of death. All enemies with Rank below C will die. Skill : Fiery Step : Can mumble widespread flames that burn anything. (It can cause a very strong fire explosion if it is kicked very strongly). Effect: - Increases running speed by 30%. - Eliminates the sound of footsteps when moving.

The powerful explosion instantly smashed the head of the red demon to formless.

Milia who saw the prowess of the attack was so shocked that she was also stunned. " O that guy... Killing a red demon that I can't even afford to scratch in the slightest with a single strike? Who exactly is that guy? " Said Milia in her heart while asking.

Seeing Xi kill the red devil in one strike, Katashi was greatly amazed by Xi's prowess. Meanwhile, Xi, who saw Katashi there, came up to him and asked "Are you okay, Katashi? "

Katashi nodded "I'm fine... Sis, you are so great to defeat that monster in just one strike! " Answer Katashi. His eyes shone, he greatly admired Xi's prowess capable of defeating powerful enemies alone.

Xi paid no heed to the praise, then he patted Katashi on the shoulder as he said. " You get here, leave the rest to us... You'd better get away from the scene of the fight now, the dungeon boss will appear in a moment and it's even stronger than the red demon I just defeated... " Said Xi asking Katashi to leave the battlefield. Hearing that, Katashi nodded and did not help in the least. Although he actually still wanted to fight, but he was aware of his strength which would definitely be useless in this battle. Simultaneously, Xi glanced at Milia who was there with a cold gaze. " And for you... " Subsequently Xi.

Before Xi finished speaking, Milia interrupted him immediately "Heh... What do you want from me? I suggest that you are not of the sort - like me, I am the main member of the Holy Sword Guild... " Say Milia cut Xi down.

Xi narrowed his eyes, looking at Milia coldly and sharply. Suddenly it made Milia goosebumps in fear, her feet trembling with fear. In his heart, he muttered "I'm trembling! Impossible... B*this lowly bastard... ?! B*a son of a bitch out of nowhere, whose name I never even heard... No way! I can't believe this! But the pressure is strong... What kind of is this! " Said Milia in her heart while imagining the horror of the white-haired youth. The young man's eyes shone brightly, emitting an incredible killing intent.

Coldly, Xi opened his mouth. Speaking in a heavy tone to Milia "You better stay still in your place, if you move even if it's only an inch... I'm gonna kill you! " Said Xi gave a warning as well as a threat to Milia.

Milia was frozen as a statue, her mouth twitching. He was really scared to hear the threat.

The size of the Gate was suddenly enlarged, along with it an explosion of energy once again. But this time the explosion was bigger than before, the sound of the explosion was terrifying. It was like the sound of a super-large bomb exploding.

From behind the Gate, a dragon whose size is very large, almost even equaling a mountain of the Gate. Behind the dragon, there was a three meter tall fire demon that had four hands. Both of them came out of the Gate together, after both came out, the Gate closed indicating that the two monsters were the boss of the Gate S class.

Everyone was very surprised to see a dragon that was so large in size. To look at the entirety of the dragon, they all had to raise their heads up. Upon seeing the boss of such a large dungeon, they all looked extremely desperate.

" Hehe human... Die up! " Say the great Dragon while shooting out its powerful fire breath. In one burst of his fiery breath, hundreds of warriors and adventurers were killed. Dozens of buildings were charred to the point that they were not even left and flattened to the ground.

The impact of that dragon breath burst was terrifying. The trail from the dragon attack was swelling on the ground, looking like a path. The dragon laughed as he looked at the desperate faces of the adventurers who were there, not only the low-level adventurers, but also the desperate faces of the adventurers, not even Rank S could do anything in front of the creature.

" You humans are pathetic! So are you elves, you are no different from trash... I Dragon Fire King Drozan will kill all of you today! " Say the Dragon in the language of the dragon that no one there can understand. Not even the elves knew what the dragon was talking about.

Slowly the mountain-sized dragon spread its wings gallantly. A strong wind was created as he spread his wings, and any buildings around him instantly shattered into shambles and were out of shape.

" Fight the demons - this demon alone felt very impossible to win... And now there was a dragon as big as a mountain? How do we defeat this creature... Obviously we won't be able to beat him, no... We won't even be able to scratch his skin! " Light said in his heart. His face was full of sweat when he saw the huge dragon in front of him. He was confused about what to do to solve this problem, but he had difficulty finding a solution because he was also desperate.

Seeing the arrival of the Dragon Fire King Drozan, they all became speechless sculpting. Their eyes were so empty, it was like they were no longer alive. Looks like an undead frozen in broad daylight.

In times of fear, confusion, and frustration. A white-haired young man appeared right beside Light who was daydreaming about a solution to resolve the great calamity that lay before him. The arrival of the young man was not noticed by anyone, not even Light was aware of the arrival of the young man.

The young man stretched out his hand, patted Light's shoulder gently and then gripped her. It immediately made Light realize from his daydream, and was surprised by the arrival of the white-haired young man.

" What...? When was he next to me? " Said Light in his shocked heart. " Whose one are you? " Task Light to the young man.

The young man pulled Light's shoulders, drawing himself closer to the anxious and alert-looking Light. Closer his mouth right near Light's ear.

" You don't need to know who I am... But now it's not me that you should worry about, but the monsters that are there. I know what you're thinking right now, but whatever you're doing will be for nothing... I won't be polite to you, but I came here because I wanted to kill them all... I could've killed everyone by myself, but since this is someone else's country so I wouldn't have done anything like that... I want you and the others to help me a little. " Said the young man in a cold tone. He also informed Light of his intention to come to this place.

Hearing that made Light very surprised. The man who was holding Light's shoulder was extremely strong, even he could feel the strong grip of the young man hurting his shoulder. Although he had used magic to minimize his pain, but that did not happen to the young man who was holding his shoulder.

Magic energy enveloped him, and made that energy into armor. Unable to reduce the damage and pain he had gotten from the young man. Light did not reply recklessly, nor did he show any sign of hostility. That Light did not just worry himself, nor fear the young man who was holding his shoulders. Because, if only he offended her by accident, he should be ready to lose one arm the moment they fight.

" help...? What kind of help do you want? " Task Light to Xi with heart - heart and vigilance. As he asked, his heart skipped a beat uncontrollably.

" No need to be so vigilant... It's not hard, you just need to hold the demon for a bit... " Answer Xi in a cold tone. While pointing at the Demon King who was standing far ahead there. " Calm down, my partner will help too... " Subsequently Xi. Darkness started to come out from his body, the darkness grew and grew.

Light who witnessed the appearance of darkness that covered the battle arena, he was really very surprised. The darkness came out very quickly in a matter of seconds. From behind the darkness, many black warrior figures appeared, not just soldiers, but monsters as well.

Light was surprised to see all of that. " He can summon this many creatures? Not likely... Even I who specialize in summoning can only summon one or two creatures... And what - what the hell with this terrifying magic energy, how could this much and terrible energy be possessed by a human being? " Said Light in his heart. His face was extremely pale as he watched the extremely extraordinary as well as terrifying abilities of the haired youth who was behind him.

" How? Can or not? " Task Xi to Light coldly and seriously.

Light was extremely depressed, his body was trembling, his face paled as well as cold sweat drenched his face. Hearing the question from the white-haired young man, Light was already unable to think of anything other than to support him. He nodded to answer Xi's question, willing to do as Xi asked.

" It is better to obey him at this time... People as strong as themselves, if they cannot be made friends, then do not be made enemies... I was worried that if I refused, he would turn around to attack us... I can't explain what would happen to us if we had to deal with it too. " Speak Light in his heart. He was really unable to think clearly anymore, and was very frustrated with the situation he was facing. He was very confused, whether the decision he took was the best decision or vice versa, it could be his worst decision. However, he couldn't do anything anymore because he had already agreed to help her.

As Xi raised his hand, releasing his grip from Light's shoulder. Simultaneously, two women appeared simultaneously behind him, appearing both of them as they reached their bow to Xi. The two women were Airis and Astia, who came to because of orders from Xi.

Seeing the two arrive on time, Xi gave orders to the two of them. " Airis, Astia... You guys, help them to hold that demon back, for the other demons just leave it to the Darkness Army and the other adventurers. " Said Xi.

Hearing the command, the two answered in unison. " Okay Sir! Xi - Equal! " Sort of them both.

After giving the order, Xi left them. He dashed swiftly towards the Dragon Fire King Drozan who was preparing to spit out his fire breath once more. Just as Drozan was about to fire him, Xi hit Drozan on the head in full force.

Xi's powerful punch made Drozan fail to fire his fire breath. Even so powerful punch Xi, until - to make the head of Drozan hit the ground very hard to make the surface of the ground to be destroyed.

Drozan was very surprised because there was someone who could make himself fall. As bright as he raised his head back and looked at the person who hit him. There was a white-haired young man floating in the air.

Enraged by the young man's actions, Drozan opened his mouth wide to bite the young man. Then he said "Bad brat! How dare you hit this king! Die you! " Drozan in the language of the dragon. Drozan was really angry with Xi and really intended to kill him.

A darkness appeared enveloping his hand, before long the darkness turned into an enormous gigantic fist. After Xi released his ability in controlling the darkness, he used that giant fist to hit Drozan.

Without being able to dodge it, Drozan instantly sprawled on the ground. With his large body, it was impossible for him to dodge such attacks within such a great distance - very close.

Although wounded by the dark fist, but it did not make Drozan feel any significant pain. He wakes up in a rampage, attacking Xi blindly.

Starting from stepping on it, biting it, attacking it with its huge tail, as well as with its fire breath. However, all of that can be avoided by Xi very easily, even the breath of fire belonging to Drozan casually he greedily used the Symbol of King Gluttony Beelzebub skill.

Drozan was aware of his powerless self if he fought on land. Because of that, he decided to fly, and turned the fight into an aerial fight. As Drozan flapped his wings, all the roofs of the building were destroyed due to the strong gusts of wind coming from Drozan.

Drozan flew high into the air, looking at Xi with a sharp gaze. Drozan opened his mouth slightly, from his mouth came a burning fire. Just then, Drozan prepared to fire his fire breath once again at Xi. But this time he'll shoot it up there.

" man! I'll scorch you in one strike! " Said Drozan and fired his fire breath with a very large scale.

Seeing that everyone was very surprised, they ran to avoid the breath of fire from Drozan that fell down very quickly. Meanwhile, Xi only gave a small smile when he heard the threat from Drozan.

He released his magic energy, and summoned Yvelsky with the Yvelsky necklace he always wore. The Legendary Beast emerged from a portal of darkness. When Yvelsky appeared, he immediately shot out a red beam of light from his mouth to resist Drozan's fire-breathing attack.

Instantly, the two attacks collided with each other, creating an extremely powerful shockwave. Drozan is very surprised by the creature that can stop his strongest attack.

" What's... My attack was stopped with just one strike? " Said Drozan muttered. He did not think that the young man he faced had something very great, even being able to compete with him.

Yvelsky has been released in perfect form. An extremely powerful being had appeared on the surface answering a call from his master.

[Yvelsky Legendary Necklace ] Rank: unknown. A necklace that can store and summon Legendary Evilsky Creatures that are Legendary Beasts.

" Don't you say you wanted to scorch me in one strike? I guess it was just a bluff. " Said Xi in a slightly arrogant and mocking tone.

Drozan who heard the teasing was very upset. " You... Man b*jangan... " Said Drozan trembling furiously.

Xi jumped up onto Yvelsky's back, standing on Yvelsky's back gallantly. Stare at Drozan far up there sharply.

" Yvelsky let's finish him! " Said Xi seriously. Take the katana from inventory.

[Sannoha ] Rank : S+. Attacks: 1,200. Skill : Reaper of Strike: Hitting at high speed and cutting targets with great accuracy. Effect : - Increases attack speed by 20%. - Provides a Debuff Effect (Blood Poison ) where the target blood will continue to decrease every decade.

" Pursue him! " xi's orders to Yvelsky.

Yvelsky shouted loudly showing his agitation, flapping his wings very strongly and flying very quickly towards Drozan.

Seeing that, Drozan flew away from the two of them. He flew at a very high speed, and always kept his distance from the two. The fight in the air cannot be avoided.

Yvelsky and Xi attacked Drozan many times with long-range attacks. Although the body is large, but the movement of Drozan when in the air is very agile. So that he could avoid any attack that Xi and Yvelsky directed at him.

Drozan flew high above the thick clouds. Yvelsky flew quickly after Drozan who had run away. As Drozan walked into the thick clouds, Xi realized something. He used the Symbol of Gluttony King Beelzebub.

At the same time, a long burst of flames struck the two of them. However, luckily Xi realizes Drozan's plan very quickly, so the two of them are not hit by a surprise attack from Drozan.

When Yvelsky and Xi entered into the cloud just where the burst of flames appeared. They were confused because Drozan was not there.

" What? Where's she? With his large body he could hide in a place like this? " Said Xi in her heart who was shocked by Drozan's ability.

Just as he finished muttering, Drozan suddenly appeared next to him with his mouth wide open and intended to eat them both. Xi was surprised by the sudden appearance of Drozan, Xi also used darkness to create a barrier that blocked Drozan.

With his powerful bite force, Drozan is able to destroy the walls of darkness that are trying to stop him. With that Drozan intends to continue his attack, but Yvelsky and Xi's whereabouts have disappeared.

Drozan was confused, and looked around him looking for the whereabouts of Xi and Yvelsky. He searched but found nothing he was looking for. Just as he stopped searching, an extremely bright red ray of light fell down very quickly and struck one of Drozan's wings with great force.

Drozan screamed in pain as his wings were attacked. Just then his wings were crushed and he lost to balance in the air. Slowly it began to fall from a very high altitude, as it fell, it looked like a falling meteor was about to hit the ground.

Along with that, Xi appeared. He charged very quickly towards Drozan by holding his sword very tightly.

Seeing the opportunity to kill Xi, Drozan did not waste the opportunity. " Foolish man! Thought you'd won against me! Die down! " Said Drozan. After he finished speaking, he shot out a breath of fire on a massive scale. An extremely hot fire breath quickly headed towards Xi.

It looked like an extremely bright pillar of fire when viewed from the ground. Without the slightest hesitation, Xi held onto his katana very tightly. Draining his energy into the katana.

" You're the one who's gonna die! " Reply Xi coldly. He shook his katana very strongly just then the two of them collided with each other. Between the large-scale breath of Drozan fire, and Xi's katana slash.

When the two met each other, Xi's katana slash was much stronger compared to Drozan's fire breath. With the Strike of Darkness Skill + Reaper of Strike, Xi managed to split the breath of the extremely powerful Drozan fire into two halves. The impact of Xi's sword slash was incredible, it completely separated the sky and made the sky into two pieces. As well as making a very strong Drozan split into two parts.

At the same time, before Drozan's death. The battle between the demons against the dark forces was fierce, especially the demons that were at the level of the Duke Arc. They can fight fiercely against the upper class dark forces.

One Demon Arc Duke facing IGRIS. The two exchanged attacks. The speed the two of them were at in swinging their swords was extremely intense, the sound of sword thumps colliding with each other continued to sound nonstop.

The fight was very fierce with a long time. In that fight, IGRIS was slowly cornered by the demons he faced. The difference in strength between them was quite large, as well as the IGRIS who had not been able to use its true strength was very difficult to keep up with the demon.

" aha! I haven't felt this happy for a long time, keep comforting me Dark Knight IGRIS! " Say the Devil said as he slashed his sword with great force.

The IGRIS seemed to have more and more difficulty in dealing with it, as each sword slash that the demon was emitting was extremely powerful, and the longer it also got faster and stronger. Despite being able to withstand every attack, the IGRIS did not have the opportunity to strike back.

The devil looked very happy when he saw the helpless IGRIS facing him. Therefore, he said while laughing "Hahahaha! What is IGRIS? Have you lost your ability? 500 Years I've finally been able to see you again, I've been waiting for this moment for a very long time. The wound you gave me first... It's still running until now... But looking at you now I feel very disappointed, because you are so weak! You really are blunt IGRIS! " The devil said while mocking IGRIS and remembering its mass, the moment where the two of them fought. Remembering the day that the IGRIS gave him a wound that never disappeared until now.

The IGRIS was really very overwhelmed facing the Arc Duke level demons. In addition, the demon who became his opponent was his old enemy when he used to be a Dark Knight. After 500 years the demons would definitely grow stronger, and their intelligence and experience would definitely also increase with time during that.

For a demon, power is everything. Those who are not strong will become slaves to the higher castles of demons. And usually for lower level demons are used by upper level demons to increase their strength by absorbing life from lower level demons or demons outmaneuvered. It could trigger an evolution for demons, after evolution not only would their strength grow stronger, but their race would also evolve to be higher than before.

The demon swung its sword very quickly, attacking the IGRIS so strongly that it produced tremendous damage. The IGRIS was able to withstand the attack with its longsowrd, but it had to be pushed back because of the strong impact of the attack on him. Even it made the hand of the IGRIS tremble due to the strength of the attack he received.

The IGRIS looked at the demon with a sharp gaze, holding firmly his sword with pride. The extremely powerful IGRIS as a Knight got a blessing from the King of Darkness. The energy around the IGRIS was overflowing - overflowing was extremely ferocious, it was an extremely terrifying death energy that enveloped him.

[King of Darkness gives his blessing to you (GRIS ) ]

[ Name : IGRIS. Level: Max ] Rank: Elite Master.

[All the requirements have been met, King of Darkness Xi Arcadia granted the rank increase permission to Darkness Army IGRIS ]

Magic energy revolved around him, gathering more and more densely. The black light shone extremely brightly forming a pillar of black light that towered high into the sky.

[IGRIS managed to rise level ]

[ Name : IGRIS. Level: 5 ] Rank: Cristal.

IGRIS has now reached a higher rank than before, namely Cristal. Now he was already on par with a top-tier Rank S adventurer. The appearance of the IGRIS after the increase in Rank underwent a slight change. His moderately tall and slender body looked more pliable than before, his black juba growing longer, his long sword shrouded in a bright red aura.

That demon who saw IGRIS evolve, he was extremely knitted. Because now the aura of IGRIS is stronger than before, even the appearance that changes becomes cooler than before as well. Seeing the IGRIS raise its sword which was enveloped by a red aura, instantly made the entire cell in its body startled with fear.

" What's... What about this sensation... Me, am I scared? " The devil said in his heart as he looked at the IGRIS who mounted the horses ready to attack.

IGRIS is ready, it darted very quickly towards the demon. Swinging his sword very quickly, slashing his sword right at the demon's neck.

It swiftly blocked the attack from the demon with its sword. Because the IGRIS attack was too strong, making the sword belonging to the demon instantly destroyed when the two swords touched each other.

" What? My sword is broken... ? " The devil said in his heart with a surprised look. The IGRIS sword finally hit the neck of the demon very quickly and made his head detach from his body. The demon fell to the ground violently, and died with a severed head.

The IGRIS stared at the demon he had killed cynically. If he could speak, he would say "You're getting stronger, but you're not worthy to beat me! "

After the IGRIS defeated one Arc Duke level demon, he went to help the others to defeat the remaining demons.
