A Demon's Journey

Chapter 518 Comet Drop

Esther and her comrades continued to fight against Lennard. Lennard's power shocked them greatly as he managed to handle nearly 4 Archangels all by himself.

The only Archangel who hadn't moved held her Zither with a cold expression on her face. This Zither was also a God-Ranked Weapon and possessed great power.

Moreover, her proficiency in handling her weapon was much greater than Esther's.

She suddenly raised her head before lightly tapping her Zither. Multiple strings of pure Radiant Energy were released from her Zither, and it shot towards an invisible target.

Esther noticed a dark shadow move from that spot and was shocked to see it was none other than Bryon. His figure was soon visible, and it was rather shocking. He was holding onto a standard-looking bow, fully stretching its bowstring.

A red aura was slowly infused into the arrow. The Archangel with the Zither immediately struck her Zither strings, and multiple strings of pure Radiant Energy shot towards Bryon.

Bryon knew his Shadow Dagger's skill couldn't conceal his perfectly from this Archangel. He had to eliminate her quickly.

Thus, Bryon aimed at the Archangel and released his arrow. As soon as the arrow was released, the bow released a thundering sound.

The arrow had already locked onto the Archangel. She couldn't dodge this arrow no matter how she tried.

In response, the Archangel struck the Zither strings once again. An extremely high-pitched sound was released from her Zither that forced all the warriors, including her comrades, to cover their ears.

Bryon continued to glance at this Archangel while covering his ears. He was shocked to see his arrow actually disintegrating in the air!

This Archangel used an unusual skill to disintegrate his arrow into nothingness! He noticed that the Archangel striking her Zither strings again.

Once again, Radiant Energy was released from her Zither, and it targeted Bryon. Bryon immediately countered by releasing triple arrows! These arrows were infused with pure Flame Ardor, and they immediately exploded as they came in contact with those streams of Radiant Energy.

Those three explosions shrouded Bryon, and he used the Shadow Dagger's skill at that moment.

The Archangel possessing Zither managed to sense him only because he was infusing large bits of Ardor in his Arrow.

She also frowned and looked around to find Bryon. However, Bryon didn't repeat that mistake.

Meanwhile, the battle between Lennard and the four Archangels was reaching a climax in itself. Two Archangels were struck by the Warped Skeletal Cleaver, and Demonic Ardor was infused into their bodies.

This Demonic Ardor was rather strange as these Archangels couldn't purge it quickly. In fact, this Demonic Ardor was fusing with their bodies.

The Archangels couldn't help but scream in anguish as the Demonic Ardor merged with their bodies. To an Archangel, the Demonic Ardor was the most potent poison. Even a fallen Archangel couldn't fuse with the Demonic Ardor.

Esther and her Judgement Trident could help them. However, Esther was busy fighting Lennard. If she didn't fight against him seriously, he could injure her gravely. And that would be the end of this battle.

After all, no one other than her could use this Judgement Trident effectively. And her comrade Aeshma, who possessed that Divine Zither, couldn't hold onto these two terrifying human warriors on her own.

Now that Bryon had disappeared, Aeshma focused on this battle against Lennard. She also noticed her comrades suffering under the effect of Demonic Ardor.

"I will hold onto this guy. Heal them," Aeshma softly spoke as she struck her Zither strings. All the Archangels made way for Aeshma to fight Lennard.

Lennard snorted in disdain as he rushed toward Aeshma. She appeared rather weak to him, and he planned to end this battle in one swing.

Unfortunately, Lennard couldn't make that one swing. Aeshma struck her Zither strings rather strongly. A massive shockwave was released from her Zither that was released in all directions.

Lennard was struck rather strongly and flew far away. The other Archangels weren't affected at all.

This shockwave affected those beings who weren't Celestials. Thus, even Bryon experienced this shockwave and was thrown far away.

Lennard frowned as the power of this shockwave was quite great. He believed it would be prudent to attack Aeshma from a distance.

"Comet Drop!" He spoke with an extremely serious voice. Earth started to gather above Lennard's head. And it was a massive quantity of Earth.

However, attacking Aeshma with merely a simple Comet Drop wasn't Lennard's plan. He spiced this attack by adding Demonic Ardor in it.

After a single swipe against the comet, Demonic Ardor infused into this large Earth Body. Aeshma placed her fingertips on her Zither strings and was ready to release a huge attack.

As soon as Lennard launched that large Earth Body at her, Aeshma's fingers started moving at a blinding speed.

The Radiant Energy was released from her Zither as her fingers moved. And before Lennard released it, his comet was covered by pure Radiant Energy. The Demonic Ardor tried to make things difficult for Aeshma, but the Radiant Energy soon overpowered it.

It was only natural for this Radiant Energy to overpower that Demonic Ardor since the Radiant Energy had emerged from a God-Ranked Weapon.

In the meantime, Esther had managed to heal her comrades. All of them rushed towards Lennard with a newfound resolve.

They were aware of Lennard's tricks now and were confident in winning against him. Meanwhile, Aeshma backed off quite a bit as she focused on finding Bryon.

While she was attacking that comet, she had released some more Radiant Energy and was searching for Bryon rather subtly. And she sensed his presence in the west.

Aeshma didn't plan on letting Bryon accomplish whatever he was planning. She immediately released waves of Radiant Energy in the west direction.

An instant later, she heard a groan and Bryon was visible ahead of her. He seemed distraught that Aeshma managed to find him.

However, this wasn't the end of the battle. Bryon decided that enough was enough. He raised his bow and shot off multiple Flame Arrows towards Aeshma.

Aeshma released even wider waves of Radiant Energy to intercept those Flame Arrows. As the Radiant Energy intercepted those Flame Arrows, small explosions occurred. These small explosions obstructed Aeshma's vision for a second.

She had no idea that Bryon was actually getting closer to her. He timed his arrows and the explosion in such a manner that Aeshma wouldn't know about this.

And when he was extremely close to her, he used his Shadow Dagger's ability to disappear completely.

As those explosions faded and Aeshma stared at in the west direction, she was shocked to see that Bryon had disappeared.

Before she could understand the trick he used to disappear, Bryon launched a sneak attack and backstabbed her.

This backstab attack appeared to be helpful as the Divine Zither slipped out of Aeshma's fingers. She was so shocked that her mouth remained agape, and she could barely turn her head to look at Bryon.

Bryon pulled out his dagger and planned to end this battle by striking Aeshma again. But Esther intervened at that moment. She threw her Judgement Trident at Bryon.

This Judgement Trident had a lock-on attribute and Esther had set it in such a manner that after striking Bryon, this Judgement Trident would release great quantity of Radiant Energy that would explode Bryon from the inside!
