Chapter 511 - 511: This Is the Real Trap

After hearing what Roy said, Tyrael felt his heart tighten. He immediately recalled his arrangements for the entire matter in his mind, afraid that there would be any omissions or details that he didn’t notice.

However, after going over everything, Tyrael could guarantee that he didn’t miss anything.

The Black Soulstone had long been destroyed, and this Tomb of Rakkis was only an empty shell that he used to lure demons. From beginning to end, no demons had entered this place in advance, so it was impossible for this demon king to make any arrangements in advance.

The only possibility was that Demon King Osiris’s strength seemed to have exceeded his imagination.

After the defeat and suppression of the Angel of Death, Malthael, Tyrael had returned to the High Heavens and restored his status as an Archangel. Not only that, but he had also taken over the authority of the original Archangel of Wisdom, Malthael. In other words, Tyrael had actually obtained a portion of Malthael’s divine spark!

Although this portion of the divine spark did not increase Tyrael’s strength much, it at least made him stronger than before. This was why he dared to set up a trap alone and then confront Roy. In his opinion, he was more than enough to deal with a demon king.

However… things had exceeded his expectations. Demon King Osiris actually had a very strange power. This mist-like energy could easily break through his holy light protection. Holy light, which had always been effective against demons, couldn’t display its effect at all.

Tyrael stood up with his sword again. He calmed the surging holy light power in his body and condensed it again, making it more solid than usual. Then he attacked Roy with his sword again.

While slashing, Tyrael mocked Roy, “Trap? If you think you can defeat me with this strange power, you’re delusional!”

“Oh? Are you that confident?” Roy held his sword to block his attack, but the tail behind him suddenly stabbed out. The tip of the tail condensed with Chaos power broke through Tyrael’s holy light protection and pierced through his left abdomen.

Roy’s tail pierced Tyrael, and his entire body involuntarily shook with it. After shaking him twice, Roy threw him into the distance and smashed him into a thick wall.

Cough! Tyrael stood up, coughed twice, and looked at the hole pierced through his left abdomen. As an Archangel, his body had already turned into a holy light body. Logically speaking, such injuries shouldn’t be serious at all, and his holy light would restore it in at most a second. But he didn’t know if it was an illusion or not, but when he looked at the wound, he found that the healing was slow.

From healing in one second to three seconds…

“What is this strange power?” Tyrael frowned.

Of course, Roy wouldn’t answer him. In fact, even he wasn’t too sure. Chaos power was the sum of all elemental powers. Of course, he knew this, but it seemed that after gathering all the elements, they had some kind of fantastic reaction with each other, and there was some indescribable power in it. Even Roy, who could look directly at the information of the underlying rules, couldn’t see this power.

He guessed that the power produced by this fantastic reaction was the true key to resisting Void power.

With Chaos power, Roy could now crush any elemental defense. Chaos power could break all elemental shields. For all elemental powers, Chaos power was a higher-level energy, and they were inferior to Chaos.

If one had to use a sentence to describe it, it was like elemental powers were simply the decay of Chaos power…

The incomparably mighty holy light power that Tyrael was proud of had no effect in front of Roy. It was even less useful than a powerful body. Without using the power and authority of a divine spark, Tyrael had no chance of winning against Roy.

However, Tyrael didn’t know this. Although he was surprised by Roy’s strange ability to suppress his holy light, it was impossible for him to stop fighting just because he didn’t understand it, right? The angel’s instinct when facing demons still drove him to continue attacking Roy. This time, he activated the vast holy light in his body and directly sent ‘Divine Punishment’ at Roy!

Tyrael used all his strength in this attack, causing the weather to change. The clouds in the sky stirred up an enormous vortex, and an incomparably dazzling pillar of light descended. The Divine Punishment that descended at the speed of light couldn’t be avoided at all and bombarded Roy.

The continuous stream of dazzling holy light lasted for a while, so much so that golden holy flames ignited on the ground. These holy flames spread in all directions and quickly burned everything within a hundred kilometers. Nothing was spared—trees, rocks, and the Tomb of Rakkis, which had already turned into ruins earlier. But now, even the ruins were gone.

Finally, after the light of Divine Punishment dissipated, and the huge pillar of holy light in the sky disappeared, only a flat crystalized plain remained on the ground. The ground, which looked like golden glass, still had Tyrael’s powerful holy light power.

Phew! Tyrael, who was floating in the air, couldn’t help gasping heavily. Even he couldn’t bear so much holy light power at once.

“Have I eliminated him?” Tyrael looked down at the ground, searching for Roy.

Before he could finish speaking, a voice suddenly came from behind him. “No!”

Tyrael was shocked and didn’t even dare to turn his body. He quickly flashed to the side, but it was too late. Roy suddenly appeared and grabbed his right light wing!

Almost instantly, the dark frost power spreading in Roy’s palm froze Tyrael’s light wing. After Roy let go, the right light wing of the fleeing Tyrael had stopped moving and turned into a stiff black ice crystal. It even maintained its original light appearance, a stark contrast to the light wing still fluttering on the left.

This time, Tyrael finally took a deep breath and realized how terrifying this demon king was.

The light wings behind him were actually holy light. It was a kind of light, but Demon King Osiris had frozen this light!

Demon King Osiris’s power was even more terrifying than the purest dark power to angels, but his holy light didn’t have much effect on him. Under the powerful Divine Punishment attack just now, he was actually fine?!

“I understand!” Tyrael looked at Roy solemnly. “Your so-called trap is to take this opportunity to kill me, right? I have to say that you might succeed… But demon, you might not know that you can never kill me in this world. As long as the High Heavens still exist, I can be reborn in the Crystal Arch! Even if you can defeat me this time, I know your strength, and you won’t be so lucky next time!”

Of course, Roy knew what Tyrael meant. In the legends of this world, after the God of Creation, Anu, and Tathamet perished together, a few parts of their bodies remained. Anu’s eyes turned into the Worldstone, his spine turned into the Crystal Arch, and a part of Tathamet’s body turned into the Hellforge.

Angels were born relying on the Crystal Arch. Every time an angel died, the Crystal Arch would immediately recall their souls and give birth to new angels. They were the reincarnations of their souls, and it only took a short time for the reincarnated angels to recall their former memories.

It was the same for demons. After they died, they would resurrect from the flames of the Hellforge.

This was why the Eternal Conflict had lasted so long. Be it angels or demons, neither side could completely eliminate their opponents. Without being able to destroy the Crystal Arch and the Hellforge, the angels and demons who died would return, causing the war to last for millions of years.

It was precisely because of this that when the people of Sanctuary couldn’t eliminate the seven demon kings, they had tried all means and finally chose to use the Black Soulstone to seal them. It was precisely because of the long war that angels and demons were tired of this Eternal Conflict…

Now, facing an equally powerful demon king like Roy, Tyrael realized that he might not be able to win. But it didn’t matter. Even if he was killed, he would soon resurrect in the Crystal Arch, and he would even gain something from this battle. At least he knew what Demon King Osiris looked like and his strength characteristics. These things were all precious information that could be recorded in the Book of Truth.

With no fear, Tyrael naturally chose to keep fighting. He knew very well that Demon King Osiris had just been summoned here from the Abyss. In such a short time, if Osiris had not entered the Burning Hells in the Purgatory Space, it meant that he hadn’t bound his soul mark to the Hellforge. In other words, if Demon King Osiris was killed, his soul wouldn’t return to the Hellforge but would directly return to the origin of demons, the Abyss.

This way, if he wanted to break through the world barrier and enter Sanctuary, someone had to summon him again. As long as he guarded against the summoning ritual of those damn Zakarum cultists, there was no need to worry about his return for the time being…

With this thought and awareness, Tyrael completely ignored his defense and continuously attacked Roy.

He didn’t use the power of the divine spark, so Roy naturally wouldn’t be polite and directly beat him into a pulp.

This battle lasted for a day and a night. Finally, it ended with Tyrael having his two light wings cut off and heavily injured.

Tyrael was lying on the ground, still maintaining his mortal body. Facing the tip of Roy’s Frostmourne, he said calmly, “Demon Osiris, you won this time, but I guarantee that the revenge of the High Heavens will come soon. You will be sealed in this world like Mephisto, Diablo, and the others!”

“Strange. I thought you would say something like ‘the nephalem won’t let you off…”‘ Roy revealed a sinister smile. “What? Are you not going to seek help from those nephalem this time?”

“The High Heavens also has its mission!” Tyrael replied coldly. “Fighting demons is the duty of angels! Kill me. But next time, I won’t let you off!”

Roy put away his sword, stretched out his demon claws, grabbed Tyrael’s head, lifted him into the air, and looked straight at him. Tyrael was expressionless, looking as though he was waiting for death.

But the next second, Tyrael’s eyes suddenly widened!

This was because a strange crystal appeared in Roy’s other hand. This crystal was about seventy to eighty centimeters in diameter, and it looked like a water droplet with a sharp tip and a wide bottom. It was simply…

just like the Black Soulstone!

Roy held the crystal and said in a teasing tone, “Unfortunately, you might not have the chance!”

“You!” Tyrael exclaimed. “W-what is this?!”

“Soulstone!” Roy looked at the crystal in his hand and grinned sinisterly. “But unlike your Black Soulstone, I made this soulstone myself. I call it… the Light Soulstone? Sorry, this is the true trap I set!”

Without waiting for Tyrael to continue asking, Roy stabbed the tip of the crystal into his chest!

Tyrael could no longer maintain his expression and finally screamed. With his scream, countless golden airflows suddenly spread around him. These golden airflows surged wildly and rushed into the crystal inserted in his chest!

As the airflows drilled in, Tyrael’s angel body turned into light and dissipated bit by bit. A moment later, he was gone, leaving only the crystal floating in the air. If someone observed carefully, they would find that there was now a golden stream of light in the originally colorless crystal. This golden stream of light kept running around in the crystal, but it couldn’t break out of it.

Roy reached out to grab the crystal, weighed it in his hand, and finally sighed.

“Mephisto, Diablo, and Baal… You bunch of idiots all have pig brains! Everyone knows how to use the Black Soulstone to seal you. Haven’t you thought of sealing the angels like me?

“You deserve to be beaten to death so many times…”

Shaking his head, Roy spread the wide demon reverse wings behind him and flew into the sky. After choosing a random direction, he left at high speed.

After he left for a long time, the people of the Church of Horadrim came to the Tomb of Rakkis while trembling with fear. But after arriving, they only saw the endless golden crystallized plain.. As for their leader, Archangel Tyrael, he was already gone…
