Chapter 540 - 525: A Total Defeat
[Warning: The Fallen Angel guild's stone has been discovered and the name of the original guild master erased.]
This sudden notification was like a huge slap on the confident Lucifer's face; he had been rambling about it would be impossible to uproot him, yet his guild's stone has been acquired only God's know-how.
Sera chuckled behind her mask and said.
''You were saying?"
Lucifer had no time to be concerned about Sera's mocking tone, there was only thing inside his head at the moment, and he voiced it out.
''How?"
''You wanted to know how you lost?" Sera inquired with a smile, and unconsciously Lucifer nodded; he wanted to know how he lost; however, his expectations were shattered upon hearing Sera's following words.
''And why would I entertain a loser's wish?"
There was a sneer on her face behind the mask; the truth was that Sera was a bit of a sadist, not to the extent of Sakuya, but she is sadist, she loves to toy with her enemy, it was exactly what was currently happening.
Lucifer's face turned livid upon hearing Sera's words; she was mocking him. Taking a deep breath before calming down his rage, Lucifer took a stance, his right leg positioned before his right one while his sword was above his left arm as if he was about to perform a thrust, he announced.
''Severance!"
Immediately following his announcement, his figure alongside the black sword vanished; Sera felt an extreme feeling of danger; she could not pinpoint from which direction it was coming from, but one thing was sure that was she would die if she were careless, she had expected Lucifer to have a trump card, but this trump card seemed to have exceeded her expectation if she had the choice she wouldn't want to use her trump card. Still, she guessed that she didn't have the choice.
Shiing!
Lucifer, who was lurking around in the space thanks to his sword special ability usable once a week, heard a sound resembling an unsheathing sound; he sneered before thrusting his sword; the black sword suddenly appeared behind Sera and was about to pierce her back when suddenly, Lucifer felt like everything became sluggish as if he was swimming in muddy water.
Danger!
Lucifer tried to switch into a defensive stance when suddenly, like a ghost Sera's body appeared before him and stabbed a black dagger into his stomach. In contrast, another identical black dagger blocked the sword in the front.
Time stopped, Lucifer forgot the pain he was feeling in his stomach, forgot about everything, his eyes were only fixed on the black dagger blocking his sword and the one piercing through his stomach.
''Cough! Cough! I-it's my defeat, a complete defeat, to think you even conceal the fact that the Twilight Dagger was a pair. Would you mind telling me the name of the move you used at the end? Take it as the last whim of a dying man.''
Sera sighed; she didn't move; she started to explain the skill she had used.
''It's called Resonance: when the two daggers are used together, you can trigger a resonance. A radius ten meters around the wielder would have time slowed down regardless of the enemy level, and it's usable once a month. I didn't wish to use it, but you give me no choice.''
''I see, cough! Cough! No wonder my body felt sluggish back then, by the way, it's a good ability.'' Lucifer gave honest praise; he harbored no hope of surviving, it was why he was not surprised when Sera even told him the Twilight Daggers limitation because after death he would be expulsed from Exodus as he only had one life left, Lucifer was not the only one in this situation, pretty much the twelve demon lords were in the same situation.
The pale-looking Lucifer opened his mouth again but coughed blood before being able to speak.
''O-one last thing, tell me, how do you know where I have kept the guild stone?"
Sera smiled and waited for a while before opening her mouth to deny Lucifer's last wish.
''I refuse.''
Lucifer's face became frozen for a second before he chuckled.
''I see. Thank you, by the way, my Name Luxor L Pendragon from Etherion Empire, I hope we will see each other again, and I'll get my revenge.''
Following Lucifer's declaration, his figure suddenly burst into light before it's disappeared, forever from Exodus world.
Sera sighed and mumbled,
''He is gone; you can come out now!"
The space around Sera was distorted, and from it, a silhouette came out, surprisingly it was Sharon who should have been dead; instead of being downcast because her guild was gone, she seemed strangely calm.
''Thank you for fulfilling my wish as promised. I'll give you the last revival stone in my possession.''
Saying this, Sharon took out a gray stone and handed it over to Sera, who stowed it away.
Silence permeated in the air for a moment before Sera finally said something.
''He knew.''
Sera's declaration made Sharon's body tremble; she almost staggered but managed to hold herself together, and with a firm voice, she declared.
''It doesn't matter; I did it for his good, for our good. If I let things continue the way they are, he would like how his siblings ended up. This is something I never wish to happen. I don't know if you know this feeling, but love can make one do unthinkable things for the sake of the one you love.''
''Love? Huh!" Sera shook her head; this feeling was foreign to her, but when she thought about love, the face of a certain black-haired young man with heterochromia eyes passed through her head, and in a certain sense, what she was doing could be interpreted as preparing the stage for her loved one, something herself was unaware of.
''I hope you will bring the guild to a higher level even though the same place we built turned into hell for me, yet I don't regret it. Sharon Elvenblood is my name; please show me your face.''
Sera sighed before removing her mask; Sharon's eyes widened upon seeing the beautiful face behind the mask; even as a woman, she felt attracted to Sera's beauty.
''Hahaha! I'm glad that you didn't show them your face. If not, he could have given you the guild just because of this. Farewell!"
Boom!
Sharon's body exploded, and she left Exodus.
•••••
In another world where mana was so dense that it was almost suffocating stood a temple, and currently in this temple, two people stood face to face, a young man dressed in royale robe and a beautiful woman.
After a long silence, the young man sighed and declared,
''Let's go, Sharon.''
The beautiful woman nodded and followed the young man; those two were none other than Luxor L Pendragon and Sharon Elvenblood, whom Sera beat and snatched their guild.
Outside the temple stood a majestic view, towering buildings, and giant flying beasts; Luxor took a deep breath and walked forward, and soon twelve guards surrounded them to accompany them. He was back in this shitty place again.. Luxor thought, but the presence of the girl beside him turned this shitty place less shitty.
