Harem Overlord

Chapter 115 Aganst Azazel (1)(Chapter Preview)

"By the gods, what is this place?" Riang asked in a terrified voice as the group saw the scene in front of them.

Thousands of spears were placed in a circular design around a palace made from ice. The horrifying thing was that the spears contained the heads of thousands of people.

The blood had dried off on many spears while some looked as though they ere planted recently. On the top of the palace, a spear and fall were implanted side by side.

The spear contained the head of a man with a crown on his head while the flag was black with two red eyes painted in the middle of it.

It had letters written on it that spelled 'Reign of Blood' in a crimson color that was obviously blood.

"That man was the king of this continent." Mia suddenly said as a spark of recognition could be seen behind her eyes.

"Azazel is a demon who would stop at nothing to bring chaos upon the entire world. This is just the beginning of it and if we don't stop him, the rest of the realm would soon bow down to him." Kai said as he brought out Hellbringer.

Black flames ran throughout the sword and he threw it at the palace but before it could in contact with the ice, it was repelled by an unknown force.

Hellbringer flew back to Kai's hands as a woman appeared from inside the palace. She had a sadistic grin on her face as she glanced at Kai and his group.

"You finally arrived. I was getting bored without any fighting so I decided to play with some humans." She said as she pointed at the thousands of human heads below her.

Kai however remained calm as he rose in the air. Azazel saw this and smiled as he raised his right hand in the air. [ He is being used for Azazel instead of she since he is male despite being in the body of a woman. ]

Battle cries sounded from the inside of the palace and millions of people charged out with their cultivation released.

"Prisoners, common folk, men, women, and basically everyone who is terrified of me. I offered them a peaceful life if they fought you and they agreed." Azazel said but couldn't get a reaction out of Kai.

"I will take care of him. You guys battle them. You can kill them without any fear as I can resurrect them later." Kai said to the group before he pointed at Azazel.

The two of them then vanished into thin air as the army launched themselves at the group. Even though some of them were afraid of the giant army, they believed in Kai's words and jumped forward to battle them.

Mariel and Levina both stood back to back as fire and lightning raged around them. They released a tornado made from fire that had lightning around it and launched it at the people.

The storm annihilated thousands of them before it slowly started to freeze. The power of Azazel was spread throughout the continent and it was trying enough to neutralize Mariel and Levina's attacks but they also had an ice expert on their team.

It looked as though nature was fighting against itself as Mia tried to control every piece of ice or snow around her.

She focused on the palace but it would take her some time to use it so she pointed at the others to protect her.

The women from the mortal realm were surprised at their strength as they knocked people out with their cultivation alone.

After all, they were the strongest people in the entire realm and for a moment, they felt invincible because of it.

The army soon started to retreat as they became terrified of the girls but they didn't notice the Sahara and Rise hadn't been using their powers.

Both of them were staring at the palace with narrowed eyes.

"Risea. It's that isn't it?" Sahara asked as Risea nodded.

Both of them abandoned the battlefield and flew towards the palace. As soon as they reached it, the entire fell silent as a groan went throughout the continent.

Mia suddenly lost her concentration as the entire palace shattered. From below the palace rose a beast that touched the clouds.

It had four large legs and a flickering black tail. Its eyes were closed as a huge seven-foot pure white tongue came out its mouth.

"Subzero lizard." Rises muttered in wonder as the lizard lies creature groaned again.

"It's at the imperial core realm." Sahara said after a few seconds as both the girls looked at each other.

"They can't defeat it." They said at the same time before releasing their cultivations.

While Risea was in the imperial spirit realm, Sahara was in the Divine spirit realm, and from a normal cultivator's opinion, they couldn't defeat the lizard.

But nothing about them was normal.

The clouds started to part as they revealed the shining moon and stars behind them. Time had passed much faster than they had imagined.

But they didn't have time for it as the lizard hit the ground with its tail. Cracks ran against the round as the people from the opposite side started to run.

But one by one, all of them slowly fell into the gaps as they screamed. The group however started flying as they examined the giant lizard.

Except for Risea and Sahara, no one thought that they could beat it. But the girls went in anyways.

Sahara's nails grew into claws made from dark energy as Risea picked up a head free spear. The spear suddenly started shining with a white light and she readied herself.

[ Mia, when Risea gives you the signal, try to control the lizard as though it's a giant piece of ice like a glacier or something. You will probably lose your consciousness but it will give us a split-second distraction that we can use to kill it. Be alert. ] Sahara said through a spiritual message as she Risea dropped in the lizards back.

Immediately ice started to approach then but it was countered by their respective powers. Risea and Sahara attacked the skin of the beast simultaneously as it roared.

It started to shake violently as Risea gave Mia the signal. She closed her eyes in concentration and focused on the beast's body.

She felt a pull inside her and she pushed it outwards as the beast stopped moving and stared at her for a split second.

At this moment, Risea and Sahara rose in the air. Under the moonlight, a demon and an angel joined hands as their body started glowing.

A dark and light force of power released from Sahara and Risea's bodies respectively as they closed their eyes.

The lizard sensing danger raised multiple shields of ice as Mia cried out in pain. Risea and Sahara opened their eyes at this moment and stared at the moon above them.

Light shot out from Risea's body while a curtain of darkness descended on the lizard. The curtain of darkness started to burn the shields and soon touched the surface of the lizard's body.

The skin started to melt as the lizard screamed in pain. The light from Risea's body then attacked the lizard and entered its body through its open wounds.

? The lizard blenched out a pool of blood as its insides started to burn and melt. Within minutes, its entire body melted into a mixture of white blood and soaked the surface of the continent.

Sahara and Risea landed on the land before their eyes rolled back and they hit the ground with a thud.

Mia followed their example and also crashed down as the snow below her formed a bed for her.

"What incredible powers." Yui exclaimed in wonder as she stared at the three girls on the ground.

"With lots of practice, you can become strong enough to wipe out armies with a single blow." Mariel commented as she lit a fire to warm everyone up.

"Even though we somehow won this battle, future battles won't be this easy." Levina commented as they settled down near the fire.

"You are right about that. We only won because that lizard had been chained for a long time." Risea said as she woke up and came to it near the fire.

"Nephilim healing powers." Risea added as she saw their expressions.

"But aren't Nephilim strictly against angelic laws and any angel who gives birth to a Nephilim will have his or her wings cut?" Mariel asked as Risea nodded.

"Yes, that's true. My mother fell in love with my father who was an honest and hardworking human, which is a rare occurrence in the upper realms. Because of that, she blessed him by giving birth to me, and at that time, Nephilim weren't hunted down. She returned back to the angel realm and left me to my father. Nephilim beings take centuries to develop in the mother's womb and they then take more centuries to grow up.

When I was fifteen, my father had been taking care of me for eight centuries but he was near his limit. After a few days, he passed away but before dying he told me to hide myself or I will be killed. It was at that time that the angelic realm passed down the law to not have children with humans and that all existing Nephilim would be hunted and killed. My mother and the other protestors against this law were killed and most of the Nephilim shared the same end. But I survived and hid myself from everyone. And that is the reason that I am alive." Risea explained and went silent.

The others knew that there was more to the story than Risea was sharing but they didn't press her further.

"What about Kai? Where is he?" Riang asked as Risea shook her head.

"Who knows where he is. But I can tell you one thing, he is fighting his own bloody battle." Risea finished as the entire place went silent.
