Chapter 64: Chapter 64: The trouble is done
[Creator An enormous amount of deaths has been detected
The system's capacity for storing essence has been full]
"Hmmm...should I upgrade you or just directly convert it"
[Even if we upgrade me and the system it won't be enough for the fast influx of essence]
"What if I upgrade all my stats?"
[That will make you either reach King rank or even emperor rank]
"Right I forgot"
Apollo ponders before having a reckless idea.
"Jeremiah can you gather those essences and transfer them to my spear"
[For what?]
"Essence is still mana, it's pure and flexible so as long as I can utilize it in the way I want it won't be wasted"
Sharp and metallic, Apollo moves his wings and the wind vibrates with his strength.
With all the chaos that's been happening, no one was able to notice a black-winged figure in the sky.
"Jeremiah"
[Yes, Creator]
Join us at m v le mpyr now
Jeremiah knew what to do so he prepared what needed to be done.
Through the use of the system, Apollo was able to handle the huge influx of energy.
"Hoo.. let us do this"
Guiding the energy he moved it towards his spear using it as a medium for the spell he was about to cast.
He needs a spell that will remove all enemies in one swoop but shouldn't kill anyone from the army.
"Open the archive"
[Archive open....
Initiating data search...
Waiting for the Creator's command]
"Initiate spell search and spell synthesis"
There is a spell he had in mind but he needs tons of other spells to use as data.
[Memory link established...
Initiating search...
Search complete!]
Apollo thinks fast and removes the spells he doesn't need and takes the ones he finds essential.
"Synthesize them now"
[Synthsis in process...]
While Jeremiah carried the command given to him, the one who created him put his focus on the spear in his hold.
The symbols that were engraved on the black surface of the spear's shaft began to shine making the scene ethereal.
With the insane amount of power being gathered Apollo's presence was immediately known.
"It's that demon again!" Kiel exclaims before slashing a beast's head.
Some demon beasts also noticed his presence deeming the creature above as dangerous. With their instincts taking over they began to gather their strength to attack.
With both Apollo and Jeremiah being occupied they didn't notice the hurling attack.
"BOOM!"
A huge explosion happens above, smoke turns into a big mass that covers the night sky while a wave of air hits the ground.
"Interesting," the demon above said while looking at the clear glass orb that transformed from the accumulated essence from his spear. A glass orb became an impenetrable shield surrounding a black demonic figure.
More lights crept in across the dark spear until it started to break apart. Pure white energy became the shaft while black-tainted symbols remained connecting the weapon together. The black blade at the top of the weapon turns pristine white. The corrupted demonic knight soon became the embodiment of light and with its power, a spell was cast.
"Darkness element"
As the spell formed inside his mind, the sky became even dimmer sensing the grim spell that was about to come.
The priest from the monastery that sneakily went closer towards the city, when they mistakenly thought that Apollo got injured, their movements halted when light and darkness became one.
The light from the spear created a dazzling pillar of light while the thick eerie clouds dominated the night sky.
A voice resembling a scratching sound began to speak.
"Black magic, Death"
Light and darkness became one manifesting the will of the spell Apollo cast. When the two contrasting lights landed on the ground the monastery priest immediately asked to be teleported away while the army from the empire just watched. Somehow they knew they wouldn't die regardless of what the spell wanted to do.
A gray light swept the battlefield and every demonic beast that the light touches die immediately.
Wind hustle as if following the will of the light spreading across the blooded ground. The soldiers were at first scared but when the light passed through and nothing negative happened they all felt relief.
"Wait my wounds heal!"
"I don't feel my sore arms anymore!"
"I can walk again!"
Aside from the sound of falling bodies, cheers and grateful exclaim can be heard, it is as if the battle has truly ended.
Well truly it does, the light kills all the remaining demons causing the real enemy to flee however Apollo already planted the spies he needs.
"I can't believe this"
A soldier said when he looked at the bodies that piled in the forest. The amount of demon beast that almost blocks every place you rest your eyes with finally defeated.
[Creator you have lost too much stamina...
The skill demonification had caused your stamina to be depleted...
The extreme use of calculation, prediction, magic synthesis and casting causes exhaustion of intelligence...
Recommending for Creator to take a rest]
Apollo just heard such words and couldn't help but agree, the last spell Death made his mind heavy.
"Yes I'll rest but take me back now"
[Will do Creator]
The silhouette that caused such a feat soon disappeared from everyone's view.
...
Back at the ruined temple, Alicia felt someone's presence, immediately she spread her mana to check the intruder's identity.
"!?"
The man was very familiar to her and without knowing she began to run towards the entrance of the secret temple.
There lying unconscious on the ground is the boy she was very familiar with.
"Apollo!?" she rushed towards him, once she arrived at his side she immediately cast a spell to find whatever was wrong with his body.
"Oh....he is just tired" she couldn't help but say when she saw the results of the spell.
"What a relief" she added while stroking the messy hair of the boy.
"In the end just what are you"
If she wanted to she could have found the answer but she wanted to respect the boy who risked his life to protect others.
"I'll wait until you tell me the truth, for now, rest"
Her hand made a motion making Apollo's body float.
"Let me take you with the others"
Two hours before the sun rose the battle ended without much life being spent.
Morning came and fortunately, it was Saturday so the kids slept more than they usually do.
"So what should we eat?" Mckenzie asked immediately as soon as he saw his friends wake up.
"Seriously not even a good morning?"
Samael retorted while fixing his hair.
"I still have some bread and milk here I should warm it up for breakfast" Keith suggested which made the girls assist him.
"Wait where is Apollo?" Casper asked since he was the one sleeping beside him.
"Alicia is not here either," Jillian said while removing the quilt.
"Where are those two?" they asked each other.
"Hey guys I found them" Vesta said pointing to the corner of their makeshift giant bed.
In the corner piles of pillows and quilts are piled up, but two people are being swallowed by these bed sheets, and these two just quietly and comfortably snuggle in together.
Nobody spoke and instead just looked at them.
"Um...we should probably let them be"
Jillian suggested which they all agreed to.
