Chapitre 27: Chapter 23

From within the thundercloud emerged four gigantic beasts with thunderous roars. The four creatures were Long Dragon, Vermilion Bird, Giant Tiger, and Tortoise entwined with the snake. The four beasts were mythological creatures that guarded the cardinal directions in Ziel's homeworld.

Rooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrr!

The beasts appeared one after another from behind the clouds. A dragon hundreds of meters long, a large bird with beautiful and fiery feathers, a huge tiger with patterns on its body, and a giant tortoise entwined with snakes. The four beings were created from extreme condensed mana and aura. The beast resulted from the combination of the skills 'Manifestation' and 'imitation', which could create any creature or form Ziel wanted. They have no consciousness of their own and move under his control.

The color of the four creatures was the same gray as Ziel's mana and aura. In contrast, their eye color is crimson, which matches his eyes. The beasts still had the abilities of their original world. The current Ziel was like a god surrounded by four mythological creatures.

"What's that!?" Princess Freya and the people around her were shocked and stunned after seeing four beasts emerge from the thundercloud. They could feel the creature's pressure far exceeding the thousands of magical beasts that were invading the Silvast city.

Princess Aishia tightly clenched her hand. Only the regrets she felt right now. In contrast, Princess Freya smiled like a blooming flower.

"What the hell is that!? You can also summon a beast!? Although it's only four beasts, this pressure is similar to a divine beast!" Ashil said in a trembling voice after seeing the appearance of the four mythological creatures.

"You don't need to know. So let's finish this immediately." Ziel said indifferently.

[Go on a rampage!]

The Mythical beasts spread out in all four directions. One of them headed for the border in the Alba Mountain Range.

"Hmm... I want to try using that weapon while my power is in an unsealed state." Ziel muttered to himself.

Two magic circles as big as Ziel's body appeared on his right and left. From the center of each magic circle, swords of the opposite color came out slowly. The first sword was black, and the other was white. Both swords have the shape of a katana with a red line along the blade. A magic chain locked the two swords. Ziel grasped the hilts of the two swords and pulled them out forcefully.

Clank!

Black and white light radiated from the sword Ziel was holding. Three colors of light currently enveloped him. Solid black on the right, milky white on the left, and gray in the middle.

The Black Sword's name was Zetta, while the White Sword's name was Alvha. Ziel made a weapon before he was reincarnated and didn't have time to use it because it was still unstable at the time. Therefore he sealed the sword along with the Divine Dress in his soul.

"Zetta, Alvha... Let's try your sharpness." Ziel brandished his black sword, and red lightning struck it. The lightning did not hit Ziel but gathered and compressed the sword. The sword's blade was enveloped in thick red light with sparks of lightning. Then he slashed it towards the thousands of monsters in front of him.

[Orbit Slash]

The thousands of magical beasts and mountain peaks in front of Ziel vanished instantly. Everyone in the place was stunned by the power that Ziel displayed. Even Ashil and Asbil were trembling in fear, and cold sweat was pouring from their foreheads. The two people stepped back subconsciously. On the other hand, Ziel just stared at it calmly as if it was nothing. That was because he didn't feel like he was doing anything great by killing thousands of high-level magical beasts and below.

"His strength is incredible, and the sword he uses is no less impressive. Was it a Saint Rank artifact? Wouldn't it be dangerous if he became an enemy? Our kingdom will be destroyed instantly?" Aryana fearfully asked Princess Freya next to her.

"Yes, it seems so. But we will never be his enemy. I can confirm that!" Princess Freya smiled softly and looked at Princess Aishia.

"Ziel will come back to us after this fight, won't he?" Princess Elise asked Princess Aishia with a trembling voice.

"...." Princess Aishia chose to remain silent and didn't want to answer her sister's question because she didn't know the answer either.

"What kind of power is that!? We need to retreat immediately. After all, we've got what we're looking for!" Ashil said to Asbil. His voice trembled in fear at Ziel's power.

"I agree with you." Asbil nodded at Ashil's opinion. His condition is not much different from Ashil's.

"I thought it was too late." Ziel suddenly spoke from behind them.

"What!? Since when are you behind us!?" Asbil reflexively attacked Ziel with his spear while Ashil backed away and drew his bow to attack him. Ziel slashed his white sword, Alvha, and both attacks disappeared. When Ziel slashed his white sword, the space in front of him was torn apart, and their attacks were sucked into it.

[Space Banishment]

"A sword that can cut through space! Asbil retreats!" Ashil shouts to warn Asbil.

"Where are you going?" Ziel moves very fast and leaves an afterimage. He attacked Asbil, not far from him.

***

When Ziel was fighting Ashil and Asbil, the four mythological creatures that Ziel had summoned ran amok amidst the horde of magical beasts. Seiryu, hundreds of meters long with red lightning all over its body, shoots dragon breath towards the group of beasts. Seiryu also wagged his tail at the monsters that were approaching him. The magical beast's body was torn apart by its tail.

Elsewhere, Byakko moves very fast and kills magical beasts by clawing and biting them one by one. Byakko also shoots a wind cannon from its mouth. Dozens of beasts were blown away by his attack.

On the other hand, Genbu ignored the monsters' attacks because his tough shell could withstand them. Then Genbu fires a water laser beam that can puncture or destroy the beasts' bodies. The magical beasts on the attack trajectory did not survive a single one.

***

On the border between the Argaint Kingdom and the Alba Mountains, the battle between the Argaint Kingdom's army led by General Farold, the Spear King, and the beast horde had been going on for quite some time. Because the number of attacking beasts was too much, the soldiers felt overwhelmed. Many of them died and were seriously injured. General Farold was alone on the front lines to restrain the monsters.

"Take the wounded soldiers to the healing mage! The soldiers who still have strength keep the front line! Don't let the beast cross the border!" General Farold ordered his subordinates while fighting the beasts.

[Piercing Drill]

General Farold leapt into the air and thrust his spear while spinning himself at high speed like a drill. The monsters in his attack trajectory died with their heads smashed or holes in their bodies.

"Damn! The monsters seemed endless!" General Farold checked his surroundings. He saw that many of his soldiers were exhausted, some were injured, and others looked desperate.

"Could this be the end of this kingdom? At least I have to fight until the end." General Farold tightly gripped his spear and was about to attack the beast horde. But he stopped after hearing the beast's cry that resounded in the sky.

Kuuuuaaaaaaaaaaaakkkk!

A huge bird covered in flames all over its body was flying over the beast's horde.

"Urgh! What else is that!?" General Farold felt the overwhelming pressure of the giant bird in the sky.

Suddenly the giant bird spread its wings, and the fire feathers attacked the thousands of monsters on the ground. The forest turned into a sea of fire, and the beasts were scorched. After the monsters died, the giant bird flew back in the direction it came from.

"What is that bird? Is it a divine beast? Did the bird kill those monsters to help this kingdom? Wasn't that giant bird flying in the direction of Silvast city?" General Farold muttered. He had a lot of questions on his mind right now. Then he frowned after realizing something.

"I hope you're fine, Princess." General Farold prayed in his heart. Then he went to the next battlefield with his soldiers.
