Demon Queen Rebirth: I Reincarnated as a Living Armor?!

Chapter 378 - Original Kritias: Chaotic Battlefield Between Heroes!

-----

Eustace and the rest of the Heroes arrived near Natalia, finding the burnt corpse of Camila…

??

Natalia seemed to glance at it with contempt, she might have not to doubt at the moment of killing her… but this did not mean that it did not bring her guilt.

"Camila… You killed her rather fast…" said Mason.

"She went all out from the beginning. I think… she wanted to die…" said Natalia.

"What?" asked Lucas.

"She lost everything… her family… her home… and we always forced her to be a Heroine and to take responsibility for everything just to all end… like this… Her eyes… they seemed hopeless, she just wanted to end her life… She fought against me, even while knowing that my attribute was strong against her Devil's Garden," said Natalia, as she began to slowly heal her wounds.

"There is no point in mourning for someone who wanted us death…" said Christopher, waving his head.

"We don't have much time, they are closing in!" said Lucas.

"Ah! Who's there?" asked Mason, as he generated a barrier of gravity while Catalina summoned her Aegis.

However, who came walking to them was their ally, Benjamin.

"Benjamin, you fool, you're back!" said Mason.

"Sorry… Ungh… But I managed to defeat one," said Benjamin, throwing off the 'corpse' of Lance into the ground.

"That's… Lance!" said Eustace.

"So even Lance participated in this battle…" sighed Lucas.

"This… He's still alive…" said Nina, checking on Lucas's presence and sensing that he still was breathing…

"Should we kill him?" wondered Catalina.

Everyone seemed bitter…

They were okay with killing someone they were fighting against… but… killing someone unconscious, in the ground…

"If you are not going to kill him… I will…" said Christopher, walking towards Lance and pointing his knife towards him.

"Good night," said Christopher.

"Ah! Christopher, wait! Don't!" cried Nina, however, it was too late, as Christopher moved his knife towards Lance's neck…

Slash!

However, the knife did not manage to penetrate Lance's neck.

"Nngh…! W-What…?!"

Christopher was surprised by a sharp holy lance penetrating his chest, right through his heart!

It was Lance Spear, Gungnir!

He had conjured it the moment Christopher got near him!

Nina had tried to stop him because she had suddenly sensed as if Lance had woken up!

But it was too late!

[Holy Lance: Gungnir] was a very special Cheat Ability, it granted Lance the power to summon the indestructible Holy Spear Gungnir, which he could freely control around him even through the air.

Using such power and the mechanics that Christopher did not know about it, Lance simply summoned the spear right ahead of Christopher, penetrating his chest in less than a split of a second!

Christopher, who was known for his power as a merciless Assassin was assassinated in the most anticlimactic way possible!

He vomited blood, as he felt his heart exploding into pieces inside of his chest.

"You… bastard…"

His entire mind quickly became dizzy… as he fell into the ground, motionless…

Eustace, Catalina, Natalia, Mason, Nina, and Lucas were left in shock!

In just a split second… an ally of them was gone!

"DIE!" roared Nina, as she unleashed the wrath of the earth itself, the entire ground around her trembled, as an enormous hand made of dirt appeared, grabbing lance!

CLASH!

"UNNGAAAHH….!"

Nina generated large walls of the earth to protect herself and her allies from Lance's Gungnir, as she began to squeeze Lance to death!

Clash! Clash! Clash!

Gungnir struggled as fiercely as possible, clashing, and destroying Nina's earth walls until Catalina entered into battle and used her Aegis to stop the deadly spear's charge!

However, suddenly, yet another unexpected outcome happened!

A phantasmal presence suddenly lurked inside of Nina, as she began to struggle to grasp her consciousness, falling into the ground!

Eustace enraged, unleashed a powerful Holy Sword technique towards Lance's spear, sending it flying into the sky with an enormous blast of holy light!

CLASH!

The Spear suddenly began to fragment into pieces, as Lance had already died by the gigantic hand made of earth…

However, Nina was now being attacked by something!

"What's going on?!" asked Lucas in fear for what was happening to Nina, only for a loud explosion to emerge over Aegis, which managed to penetrate the barrier and shatter it!

BOOM!

The gigantic explosion was a massive fireball, and the blow was so strong that it made everyone fly into the air!

"T-That… fire is Leonia!" said Natalia, gritting her teeth as she flapped her draconic wings, flying into the air and glancing at her surroundings, finding that Leonia alongside Gabriel, Fernando, and… another woman, Evelyn, known as the Scarlet Knight, the wilder of the [Blood Vampire] Cheat Ability!

"Wait, Evelyn is here too?! Unngh…!" cried Lucas, as he immediately began to sense Evelyn's skill effect!

Evelyn was able to manipulate blood freely on a radius of ten meters around her!

However, she could not manipulate the blood inside a foe… but she could drain it out through wounds… something that she liked to do against big enemies, slowly killing them mercilessly!

Evelyn's crimson eyes flashed eerily, as she immediately started to suck out the blood of Eustace's group while in the ground!

Lucas desperately tried to fight back, as he created 7 new Artificial Spirits of all shapes, sizes, and colors, sending them against Gabriel's group as a distraction!

The Artificial Spirits unleashed magical attacks of all elements, Light, Fire, Wind, Water, Earth, Time, and Space, buying some time for Lucas to stand up and make some distance from Gabriel's group that slowly approached them!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

"Useless…"

However, Leonia simply generated enormous spheres of flames and destroyed each Artificial Spirit without any problem, leaving Lucas startled!

"Lucas… I will take care of Leonia! Use your Healing Spirits to heal your wounds and the others!" said Natalia, bravely darting towards Leonia as she unleashed her Dragon Soul, firing a powerful breath of soul flames towards Leonia!

However, Leonia smiled with fascination!

"Good! I have always wanted to see who's fire was the strongest…! Gabriel, don't bother me!" said Leonia, as she rushed towards Natalia, her Sun Flames clashing against Natalia's Dragon Soul Fire!

CLASH!

BOOM!

Flames against flames, constant explosions of fire began to unfold all over the sky, the two fiery ladies clashing against each other for survival, although Leonia's smile kept intensifying, she was fighting for the excitement and exhilaration of the moment!

"You're just as wicked as Camila! I will not let you take more innocent lives! Blazing Dragon Soul Claws!" roared Natalia, as her soul emerged out of her body as enormous draconic fiery claws, clashing against Leonia's flames, and throwing her fireballs away as the claws seeped into her body!

Clash! Clash! Clash!

However, Leonia did not even groan in pain, as she glanced at Natalia wickedly!

"Hahaha! That's ironic coming from you after we killed millions of innocent lives, do you even care anymore about a few other dozens?!" asked Leonia, the wounds inflicted by Natalia seemed painless to her, as she coated her wounds with her flames and suddenly healed them right away!

"W-What?!" asked Natalia in surprise, not because of Leonia's words, but due to her strange healing!

"Surprised?!" laughed Leonia, as her flames concentrated into her very soul, forming gigantic feathered blazing wings, unleashing a powerful blazing aura, and throwing Natalia through the sky!

FLASH!

The screech of a furious bird emerged from Leonia's blaze!

It was as if it were… a phoenix!

"A phoenix?! Was your ability… always like that?!" asked Natalia.

"Yes. It was always like this! This is the true power of my Ability, something that I worked very hard to hide! Now… I can go all out, right?!" laughed Leonia, unleashing an enormous storm of constant searing flames towards Natalia!

Natalia gritted her teeth, as her Dragon Soul opened its jaws and unleashed a blast of Soul Flames in the form of a cannon of fire, clashing against Leonia's flames!

BOOM!

As flames clashed against flames, within the surface, the heroes were fighting with everything they had to survive!

"From all the bastards that could come today it had to be this fucking pervert!" roared Catalina, clearly angered as she constantly conjured Aegis barriers, which were all being destroyed by arrows made of lightning conjured by a certain someone!

"Come on, Catalina-chan, are you not happy to see me?" laughed a slender man with a shit-eating grin, Fernando, the Penetrator! One of the most wicked Heroes with the overpowered Cheat Ability of [Penetrate] which let him completely ignore any Defense and Resistance, he was easily breaking through Aegis as if it were paper!

By using his Cheat Ability, and employing his fast-lightning magic, he was able to simply ignore all the defenses of pretty much anything, the buildings went flying away, and Catalina was barely being able to evade in time as Fernando unleashed more of his powerful attacks!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Catalina began to unleash the magic of her own, creating large tornadoes of wind and spears made of jewels, but it was not enough!

Fernando's Penetrate was also able to ignore the mass of even magic attacks, he could completely penetrating through them with his magic, reaching Catalina!

CLASH!

"UNNGGAAAAHHH…!"

Catalina was caught off guard, as Eustace and the rest glanced at her with horror as her body was electrified!

"Catalina!" cried Mason, manipulating gravity, and rushing towards her, grabbing her with his Gravity and pulling her away, confronting Fernando and his wicked smirk!

"Aw come on, I was about to fry her up a bit!" laughed Fernando, he was completely nuts!

"Fernando… I will not go easy on you!" roared Mason, his eyes flashing with bloodlust as he began to manipulate gravity around his entire body, forming constant waves of electromagnetic fields hitting each other, such enormous power was unleashed as a formless and invisible cannon, clashing against Fernando!

"UEHNGH?!"

Fernando tried to destroy the attack, but it was too fast and it encompassed a large area!

BOOM!

Fernando was hit with the weight of hundreds of kilograms hitting over his body!

Although he had the power to ignore defenses… his entire body was not strong enough to sustain such weight, barely resisting through his stats alone!

However, Mason smiled, as he simply waved his hand!

"You were never a match for me!" he roared, as more gravity was pulled into Fernando, crushing him into the ground!

"Unnnggaaaggahhgg…! T-THUNDER!" cried Fernando, managing to conjure a spell somehow, and throwing it towards Mason, using Penetrate into the spell and reaching his foe's body with it!

CLASH!

"Unghh…!" cried Mason, barely managing to sustain the damage as his body was blasted into the air!

"Hehehe…! I-I won!" laughed Fernando, however, suddenly, a giant jewel appeared above his head!

"Eh…?"

CRASH!

His entire face was flattened like a pancake and left into a bloody pool, as the face of Catalina in the ground pointing her hands towards Fernando while gritting her teeth could be seen from the side of Fernando…

"I finally… managed to kill this bastard…" she muttered, as she fell unconscious.
