Chapitre 274: FOILED AGAIN BY THE DARKNESS
FOILED AGAIN BY THE DARKNESS
"Not just the Bloodfiends came back, look at the Spider bitch", Ratatouille told us.
At another end, a huge Spider emerged. The Spider scoured the city to seed her evil magic into innocent victims, turning them into surrogates who would produce spiderlings to nourish her magic.
"Damn", I replied to them.
"We should retreat back to Istiopolis city. Kaleon City is undefendable", Ratatouille suggested to me.
Suddenly, a suggestion came to my mind.
"There is something that I can do but I am reluctant to do it", I told my friends.
"What is it that you can do? This is the time to bring it out", Chash told me and asked.
"It is the Sword of Malevolence of course. The Demon army could not stand the malevolence of the Dark Angel", Ratatouille replied to him.
"Oh, that", Chash commented.
"I'm still undecided on using it. The consequences of using the Sword of Malevolence are many and the implications hard to wipe off", I replied to them.
To our surprise, one of the Flesh Meat monsters before us was obliterated before our eyes, disintegrated completely. It was impossible for the creature to regenerate again because it was completely gone by now.
"What the hell is that?" Ratatouille asked.
"The beam that killed the Flesh Meat came from the Conjurer Court", I told them when we looked to the direction of the Conjurer Court.
A strange device appeared atop the conjurer court, shaped like a blossoming metal flower. Magical beams were fired from the device into Tarah city, searching for the invaders to destroy them under their fire.
"The metal flower is hunting the Flesh Meats, we are saved", Chash told me.
"Good, that is a relief", I replied to him.

[In the pavilion of the Demon Queen]
"Unbelievable, how did the Conjurer Court possess a weapon like this?" Darklord asked.
"This artifact weapon is something we didn't account for in our plans", Kolgane said to them.
"Just like how you got killed soon after we awakened your skeleton magic, you incompetent fool. We need to waste time in the middle of battle just to revive you", Darklord replied to him and reprimanded.
"I apologize, my lord. The Bully is much stronger than I expected. He has magic that can destroy the bones in the graveyard, stopping the source of my magic", Kolgane explained to him fearfully.
"What kind of magic can destroy your source of bones?" the Queen asked him curiously.
"I don't know but it is malicious", Kolgane replied to her.
"Do you mean that bloody magic", Darklord said as he pointed to the battleground.
Suddenly, a strange cloud emerged that rapidly scoured the city with malevolence. Magical claws were formed from the dark clouds that rapidly took the lives of the dead and the living, humans and demons alike.
"Oh no, it is the Dark Angel's Malevolence again", Darklord shouted out to complain.
"Why must the Dark Angel foil our plans every time we invade a city? What is the point of gathering a million men when someone can stop us so easily?" Kolgane asked them and complained.
In their last invasion of Maher city, they were stopped at the last minute because of the appearance of the Dark Angel's malevolence.
"There must be a connection somewhere. The Dark Angel will not ruin our plans for no reason in support of the apostles. They are supposed to be enemies", the Queen said to them.
"What are we going to do now?" Darklord asked his daughter.
"We retreat if you want us to still have an army to fight another day", Queen Emerald told them.
-----
"Did the demon army retreat just like that?" Chash asked us.
"They have to retreat after the Sword of Malevolence is released", Ratatouille replied to him.
"I thought you didn't want to summon the Sword of Malevolence", Chash asked me.
"I didn't. The Malevolence summoned itself", I replied to them regrettably.
Although I was glad that we turned back the demon invasion with my Malevolence, I wasn't comfortable in using the Dark Angel's magic because every time that I cast the sword, the Dark Angel's revival would become another step closer.
Despite wearing the divine artifact, the Bell of Separation, given to me by the god Delirium which was supposed to separate my consciousness from the consciousness of the Dark Angel, the Dark Angel's mind wasn't confined.
The Dark Angel was aware of the situation around us.
Although I didn't summon the Sword of Malevolence, the Dark Angel did, because this was the perfect time to do so, during war and misery.
Suddenly, my Malevolent Slaves came back to report to me.
"What did they say?" Ratatouille asked me about my Malevolent Slaves.
"They took in more recruits, my Malevolent Slaves", I replied to them before I added, "Thanks to the Sword of Malevolence".
Every time that the Sword of Malevolence is conjured, souls would be lost to the malevolence. Those who wanted to escape from the Dark Angel's malevolence sought refuge with my Malevolent Slaves, they were the only souls that the Dark Angel would allow to escape him.
"What will you write in tomorrow's newspaper?" Chash asked me.
"Definitely not the truth", I replied to him.

"Invasion of Tarah city by the demon army"
"The Conjurer Court thwarted the demon invasion with their Shields of Enimus and Heliostat"
"More about the Heliostat"
"The Greatest weapon of the world, the Heliostat of the Conjurer Court"
"We are safe if we have the Conjurer Court's protection"
"You are unusually humble with your reports this time, Lord Oriese", Prince Geoffraie asked me.
"The Heliostat turned back the demon army, credit is due where it should be", I replied to him.
"Our city might have survived if the forces of Kaleon city had stopped the demon army before the Heliostat was activated", Prince Geoffraie complained to me.
Prince Geoffraie was still mad at me because I refused to save the city, focusing only on saving our own people.
