"Aya!" Bloed cried out, moving immediately towards the cat girl.
However, someone moved faster than him.
Headmistress Wave, feeling the commotion, bellowed with an angry expression.
"YOU DARE!!!"
Mana as vast as the sea itself surged out of her body, rushing towards the man about to self-destruct and freezing his body and mana completely.
The face of the man changed, and a look of fear appeared in his eyes.
The man could not believe that the headmistress had stopped his self-destruction so easily!
Wave sneered and waved her hand. Her caramel-colored eyes glowed angrily as several magic circles appeared around the man, sealing his body completely.
But at that moment, the expression of the headmistress changed.
Because an extremely powerful aura had appeared all of sudden!
The aura moved quickly, charging towards the sealed man and his surroundings violently and trying to snuff out his soul.
But then, the headmistress snorted.
"The same trick will not work twice!"
With a grunt, her mana rose angrily, clashing against the aura and stopping it in its tracks.
But then, the headmistress put on a startled expression before moving her gaze through the crowd gathered around the commotion.
"One, two, three… so we have another seven rats here, huh."
Headmistress Wave smiled mockingly.
Just now, she felt that the man that she caught was not the only target of the aura. The seven people that she found just now were targets as well.
The meaning of that was obvious.
They were part of the same group!
With a sneer, her caramel-colored hair stood up as her mana surged violently around her and rushed towards them!
But at that moment, the aura of before returned again.
Moreover, it was much fiercer than before, and it was targeting every people near the place of the explosion.
It was going to kill them!
Wave's expression changed. In the next instant, her eyes turned red in fury.
"BASTARD! HOW YOU DARE!"
Without hesitation, Wave canceled her previous attack and used her mana to create several defensives barriers to protect the people nearby.
Taking advantage of that opportunity, the seven people gritted their teeth with crazy expressions and activated their mana.
They were planning to self-destruct!
Unfortunately, Wave was not the only demigod nearby.
Before their self-destruction could start, an emotionless voice rang out through the place.
"I command thee:" Eve said. "Self-destruction is forbidden."
As soon as her words sounded, the mana of the seven men calmed completely.
The seven men opened their eyes wide. They tried to self-destruct again, but it was useless.
Some of the more quick-witted ones immediately bit their molars in an attempt to bite the poison pills in their teeth and kill themselves. However, Eve's calm voice sounded again.
"I command thee: Suicide is forbidden."
And their movements stopped completely.
It was as though their bodies and souls refused to go against the beautiful fox girl's words.
With an indifferent expression on her face, Eve Moonglow, one of the most powerful demigods in the world, opened her mouth again ready to give out her next order.
But suddenly, another powerful aura surged out.
And this time, it was from a completely different direction.
The aura carried a sharp and bloody sword intent that pierced towards Eve's neck. It arrived in an instant, without giving anyone any time to react.
However, Eve was not a normal person.
Without a change in her expressionless face, she raised her hand, creating a paper-thin barrier that stopped the attack completely.
At the same time, her body turned translucid, disappearing from her previous place and appearing in a place several kilometers away.
"Die."
She spoke, her mana surging downwards towards the location of the person that attacked her.
But then, a harrumph sounded, accompanied by a powerful sword intent filled with a bloody smell and a desire to slaughter, clashing against Eve's attack.
In the meanwhile, Headmistress Wave had located the place where the first aura came from and rushed towards it.
Just like that, a battle between four powerful demigods started.
Seeing that, the seven people that had been discovered just now kicked the ground and ran off, taking the opportunity when the two most powerful demigods were busy to run away.
However, Headmistress Wave and Eve were the two most powerful demigods nearby, but they were not the only ones.
When one of the other demigods saw the seven of them running away, he frowned and waved his hand, casting a spell that created several powerful mana chains that caught the seven of them easily.
Although the demigod was not sure about what was happening yet, he knew that stopping them could not be bad.
Then, he together with the other demigods flew towards the two battlefields to help Headmistress Wave and Eve.
Bloed sighed in relief at that moment. The situation had turned dangerous very quickly, but fortunately, it seemed like it was already under control.
But at that moment, he heard Aya's voice.
"Bloed! They are escaping!"
Bloed was startled. He hurriedly looked towards the seven chained people, only to realize that three of them had completely transformed.
Their clothes burst open, revealing several disgusting tentacles that erupted out of their chests, creating a nauseating scene.
Their skin turned pale, and their eyes turned bloodshot. In an instant, they had transformed into horrifying inhuman abominations.
As soon as the tentacles came out, they wrapped around the mana chains binding the abominations. In less than one second, the tentacles absorbed the mana of the chains completely, shattering them.
The abominations had broken free!
And without hesitation, they looked towards their still-caught companions with eyes full of killing intent.
Bloed's expression changed when he saw that.
He only needed a glance to recognize the identity of these abominations.
After all, he had seen one of them before in Diadel Duchy.
"Devourers…?" Bloed murmured with a dumbfounded voice.
However, now was not the time to be surprised.
He needed to stop the abominations right now!
Suppressing the uneasiness in his mind, he took out his saber and rushed towards the three abominations.
"Stop them! Don't let them kill the others!"
If he wanted to find answers, he could not let the abominations kill their companions.
