Hero of Darkness

Chapter 667 The Calling

Chapter 667 The Calling

First Oliver and then Omega killed Axel with Vajra and White Fang Strike respectively. The former was a 50 meter long lightning bolt comprised of hundreds of lightning bolts while the latter was a gravity law attack skill that was only second to Kahn's Dimensional Cut.

After the Hero of Fire died for the 3rd time, Ronin collected and absorbed the escaped soul again using Soul Collector. At this moment, Ronin's body was going under tremendous changes but the spirit assassin willingly halted his progress.

Stealing the souls of the saints Axel was using as Extra lives was a precautionary move made by Kahn. Because Soul Eater definitely had some more uses and Kahn didn't want to take risks and allow Axel to get any more advantages.

Who knew if he could use Soul Eater to control these souls and regain more lives? If he could, then it would be a big problem for them.

Based on the appearances of the souls, they released a very distinguished aura and seemed to have a lot of Soul Essence themselves since they belonged to saints.

Blood Monarch was already too OP. If Axel had risen to Peak Saint rank, the army would be many times stronger and who knew what kind of powerful monsters he could create.

Even his subordinates might have had to face trouble because if even a dozen of the blood monsters were on their level, they would've eventually lost after a long-drawn battle because nobody had an infinite supply of mana and world energy.

They didn't have a Peak Saint's core like Kahn to use as a source. However, Axel chose that ability for futuristic purposes and he hadn't expected to find and fight Kahn here when he planned to capture Venessa.

And luckily, Kahn's crew had abilities to counter his divine ability.

Because having extra lives was no joke. But with Ronin's help alone, they could overcome the Soul Eater divine ability. Thus, Kahn also had no plans to give Axel any leeway.

Why give your enemy more firepower when you can take away their every possible move?

"Arghh…" groaned Axel after being revived again. His indignant expression revealed his infuriated mind but currently, he was thoroughly suppressed.

[These runts! They dare kill me like some random goon? I'm the goddamn Hero of Fire!

And why are there 3 of them with Saint Domains? Even I don't have one and neither did Azerog.

The Sage's Eye didn't reveal these skills at all!] cursed Axel in his mind as he felt humiliated.

Crackle!

Crackle!

Oliver summoned a thunderstorm using his abilities as a Thunderbird monster and Axel who was entrapped inside the effects of the 3 domains still couldn't breakthrough despite using his own saint pressure. And whenever he tried to move, Omega was straight up come in his way.

Compared to others, Omega was too fast even for him and the three domains had already greatly suppressed his body.

Cling!

Cling!

However, suddenly… Axel's entire body froze again and this time, it wasn't Omega but another member of Kahn's subordinates.

Omega had just used Gravity Imprisonment so he needed some time due to skill cooldown. But there was another member who could temporarily freeze a weakened enemy.

Void Realm!

Under a 5 kilometers radius pitch-black dome, the Hero of Fire couldn't even bat an eye as Ceril suddenly appeared 1 kilometer in front of him.

The Dark Summoner didn't make any grand movements and summoned Book of the Damned and Chains of Judgement just like before.

With the combination of two gifts from Deity of Necromancy along with the bonus effects of the Pendragon Formation, his overall strength rose to an intermediate second-stage saint, only a bit weaker than Axel.

Stab!

Stab!

Stab!

18 black chains made of pure dark magic stabbed into Axel's body including his private part as his entire physique's defenses were now negligible in front of their group because of the three domains.

Rip!

Axel couldn't even scream in agony as his most prized possession was pulled off by a chain under Ceril's order.

Even Venessa had averted her eyes because the scene seemed too cruel even to her. But Kahn and the group weren't bothered in the slightest as they had a history of torturing people since their time in Flavot City.

This wasn't something new or noteworthy for them at all.

Rip!

Rip!

One after another, Axel was ripped and torn apart in small different places as Ceril mercilessly killed the Hero of Fire. Darkness had an advantage over Fire in terms of elemental hierarchy. Thus, Axel couldn't even resist or scream as he died another gruesome death while his entrails, lungs, limbs and prized jewel still hovered in the sky, unable to move on their own.

Shatter!

The fourth white archaic formation shattered and Ronin did what he was supposed to do.

[Why the hell isn't he using more fighting skills?] wondered Kahn.

Because so far, Axel only used the most obvious and rookie-level fighting skills and most of them were dependent on brute strength as a 3rd stage saint.

[Why do you think I managed to kill so many heroes despite being weaker than them?

These guys rely too much on their divine abilities and don't work hard to master combat skills and techniques.

Although you have blessings from the War Deity, you at least have your priorities straight when it comes to mastering and perfecting your fighting skills and abilities.

This guy seems like he never worked hard enough to gain and raise the ranks of skills and techniques after he was summoned here. And obviously, very few things from his world can work here since the laws of reality are different.

Compared to heroes of my time… this guy is a rookie.] berated Rathnaar.

Even Kahn understood that the first emperor was right.

2 Minutes Later.

Axel was reborn again and this time, it was Armin's turn.

The Pathfinder class general used Nirvana Armor and Hermes Staff effect to drain the entire life force out of Axel's body who was frozen inside the Void Realm after being reborn.

Axel's body turned into a husk and another soul formation shattered.

With this… Axel had died for the 5th time.

However, after Axel was brought to life again… the humiliation of being killed by Kahn's lackeys had finally pushed him on the edge.

"All of you… I'm going to make every single one of you suffer far more than I have." proclaimed Axel and hundreds of red runes appeared all over his body.

"Kahn, get everyone out of there. He's going to summon him!" shouted Venessa with fear in her eyes.

"Summon who?" Kahn asked quickly.

To his question… Venessa had an aghast expression as she revealed with a terrified voice…

"The Fire Deity."
