Invicinble Colorless Butler

Chapter 257 50

When Azalia returned to the Monarch Palace with Fornius and Aghares, the girls in that place, except Lilith, were frowning. They could accept Azalia because she was Ziel's friend but not for Fornius, who had caused such a big mess and many casualties in the Cirlus Kingdom.

"Why did you come back here instead of fighting with him against the Sacred Demonel? With your strength, I believe you are capable enough to help him. Is it possible that you intentionally left Ziel to fight alone against that creature, and then you can save those two!?" Kalya said coldly.

Kalya had not heard the conversation between Ziel and Azalia before. Therefore she thought Azalia had abandoned Ziel and fled to save her two subordinates. Clara and the other girls looked at Azalia coldly because they thought the same thing. Lilith of the same race as them was even irritated by Azalia's actions.

"How dare you say that to miss Azalia!" Aghares got angry after hearing Kalya's tone toward Azalia.

"Just a mere elf and you dare to question miss Azalia!?" Fornius was also irritated by the cynical stares the girls gave them. In addition, he was also stressed by Oillet's current situation and his powerlessness in dealing with it. That's why his emotions exploded.

"Stop it, you two!" Azalia said in a slightly high-pitched voice after feeling the tense atmosphere.

"But, miss..." Fornius couldn't accept Kalya's attitude and refused to listen to Azalia. But Azalia cut him off first before Fornius could continue his sentence.

"I know what you're thinking. But this is my business, so you don't have to interfere." Azalia warned Fornius coldly. Aghares and Fornius reluctantly shut their mouths after hearing Azalia's words. Then Azalia turned her gaze to Kalya.

"I don't know what you think of me right now. However, I would never have left Ziel to fight the Sacred Demonel alone if it weren't for him forcing me to leave. Believe it or not, it's up to you." Azalia said seriously and looked at Kalya and the girls in front of her.

"I understand. I believe your word." Kalya did not ask further because she believed in Azalia's explanation. But since the girls realized that now wasn't the right time to question that, they kept quiet and focused on Ziel, who was currently fighting swords against the Sacred Demonel.

Ziel and Sacred Demonel fought fiercely and moved so fast that some girls in the place couldn't see their movements. After a while, Ziel and Sacred Demonel seemed to keep their distance. Kalya was relieved after seeing that Ziel was fine and his opponent was injured after their fierce clash.

"He can beat his enemy!" Clara raised her tiny fist excitedly.

"Don't be too happy just yet, little girl. It's possible his opponent just warmed up with him and hasn't used her full strength yet." Fornius snorted. For some reason, he felt irritated when Oillet was injured by Ziel even though he knew that the Sacred Demonel had controlled her body.

"Which side are you on? Didn't she almost kill you earlier?" Kyouka replied coldly.

"You…" Fornius was angry that a human dared to reply to him. But his words stopped after hearing the sound of footsteps approaching them.

"Ah, it turns out you are here!" A girl's voice was heard from the cafeteria entrance.

"Mr. Merlick and the kings ordered me to look for you. I've searched for you in almost every area of the Monarch Palace and almost got lost but still can't find you. I thought you guys went out in this situation. are you…" The one who came and suddenly spoke was a beautiful girl with long blue hair, Cordelia Cirlus. But when she approached Kalya and the others, her body trembled, and her eyes were bloodshot upon seeing Fornius.

"You! You are the one who wreaks havoc on the territory of the Cirlus Kingdom!" Princess Cordelia roared in anger. She drew the sword hanging from her waist and charged toward Fornius.

Kalya, Clara, and the other girls were shocked by the sudden turn of events. They didn't have time to stop Princess Cordelia from attacking Fornius. But Azalia acted quickly. She appeared before Princess Cordelia and stopped the sword with her bare hands.

"Stop it if you don't want to get hurt." Azalia said coldly. Kalya, who came to her senses first, quickly acted and pulled Princess Cordelia.

"Please calm down, Princess Cordelia. I understand how you feel. But now's not the time for you to do that. You can solve your problem with him later." Kalya grabbed Princess Cordelia's wrist and tried to calm her down.

"What do you mean now isn't the time!? Don't you know how many soldiers died because of his actions!? I had to kill him to avenge the soldiers who had died back then!" Princess Cordelia looked at Kalya with bloodshot eyes and shouted angrily. She rebelled and tried to free her arm from Kalya's grip.

Princess Cordelia didn't want to listen to Kalya's words at all. In her mind, she only wanted to avenge her soldiers who had died at the hands of Fornius.

"I said…stop!" Kalya shouted and released her strength to suppress Princess Cordelia. She has no time to mind other people's business when the man she loves is in a life-and-death battle.

"Urgh!" Princess Cordelia trembled. She didn't think that Kalya would be angry with her. Seeing Kalya's cold gaze on her, Princess Cordelia could only sigh heavily and suppress the anger in her heart.

"Have you calmed down already?" Kalya felt that Princess Cordelia was no longer trying to break free from her grip.

"I understand. So can you let go of your hand on me?" Princess Cordelia didn't want to make Kalya even angrier. She could only postpone his intentions for now. Even so, Princess Cordelia still looked at Fornius with eyes full of killing intent.

"Of course. You can sort things out with him after Ziel returns but not now." Kalya let go of her grip and returned her focus to Ziel's fight. She suddenly widened her eyes after seeing the battle situation between the two people. Not only Kalya but also Azalia and the other girls were shocked. A giant magic circle and cloud vortex formed in the sky.

"Isn't that the attack used by the principal of the angel race before?" Kalya asks Azalia for confirmation.

"Yes. However, it's much bigger, and I feel a terrifying power from the magic circle." Azalia gave the nod and answered in a slightly trembling voice.

After hearing Azalia's words, Kalya, Clara, and the other girls were worried. They saw that Ziel was currently trapped under the magic circle. The girls clenched their fists and prayed in their hearts for Ziel's safety.

Not long after, two pillars of light fell simultaneously from the sky and dazzled the entire area. The first golden pillar of light emerged from the giant magic circle in the sky and fell on Ziel. While another pillar of light was crimson, emerged from the cloud vortex and engulfed the Sacred Demonel. The two pillars of light were roughly the same size and density.

Boooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmm!

Boooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmm!

A violent earthquake shook the territory of the Beast Kingdom and its surroundings as the two pillars of light collided with the ground. The area along tens of kilometers was ravaged by hurricanes due to the impact of the two attacks.

Azalia, Fornius, and Aghares quickly created a barrier to withstand the impact of the two devastating attacks.

"Ziel!!!" Kalya screamed hysterically after seeing Ziel being swallowed by the golden pillar of light from divine punishment. She intended to go to help Ziel, but Azalia quickly blocked her.

"Where are you going!? Don't you see that the situation there is dangerous!? If you approach it, you might end up being swallowed up in that pillar of light!" Azalia stood in front of Kalya and didn't let her pass.

"Get out of my way right now! Otherwise, I will not spare you!" Kalya created a bow out of spirit power and aimed her arrow at Azalia. Clara and the other girls tried to stop her, but they were also worried about Ziel's condition inside the pillar of light.

"How dare you point your weapon at Miss Azalia!" Aghares shouted angrily, seeing Kalya's actions towards Azalia. He intended to attack Kalya, but Azalia spoke and stopped him.

"Stop it, Aghares! I will take care of this matter, and you guys have to be quiet!" Azalia warned Aghares and then turned her gaze to Kalya.

"Fire your arrows at me if that's what you want!" Azalia challenges Kalya. Aghares was about to stop her but fell silent after receiving Azalia's glare.

"I came here to ensure your safety so he can focus on his battle. But if you suddenly approached him and disturbed his concentration, wouldn't that put him in a dangerous situation?" Azalia tries to convince Kalya to stop her intention to help Ziel.

"But… did you see what happened!? You said that the magic circle was much stronger than before, right!?" Kalya gritted her teeth and thought of shooting her arrow at Azalia.

Even though Kalya knew Azalia's reasoning made sense, she didn't want to care because she had lost her composure to think. She was sad when she thought of Ziel's condition, and tears flowed from her eyes.

"Do you think you're the only one worried about his situation! Look behind you! The girls were also worried about him! I'm worried about him too! But I know if I go there, I'll be a burden and hinder him. I want you to understand that!" Azalia expresses her feelings. She was also shedding her tears, which made Fornius, Aghares, and the girls dumbfounded.

Kalya and the girls were speechless by Azalia's reaction. They realized that Azalia confessed her feelings indirectly through those words.

Kalya lowered her bow slowly and finally removed it. She took a deep breath to calm her mind and wiped the tears down her cheeks.

"I understand. I apologize for my previous actions. But if anything happens to Ziel, I will fight to the death with the Sacred Demonel, and I hope you don't get in my way then." Kalya said with determination.

"You don't have to worry. If that happens, I won't stop you because I will be fighting with you against the Sacred Demonel." Azalia had secretly also made up her mind. She smiled and made a statement that took Kalya by surprise. But then she smiled after knowing Azalia's feelings for Ziel weren't inferior to hers.

Not long after, the two pillars of light slowly shrunk and disappeared. Each pillar shows a figure with body parts that are no longer intact but still alive. Azalia, Kalya, and the other girls could only clench their fists tightly to endure the stress and pain in their hearts after seeing the condition of the man they loved.

***

In a secret room within the Monarch Palace, Raphael was constantly trying to untie the chains wrapped around him. That thing locked not only his movement but also his power. Therefore he used every means at his disposal to destroy it, but his efforts ended in vain.

"Damn! Why can't these chains be cut or broken!" Raphael roared in anger because the chains were so troublesome. Even with King Regulus's help, the chain wasn't even scratched. Raphael intended to break the chain so he could reuse his power.

In the secret room, there is a single-use teleportation magic circle that Raphael can use to go to any area of the Clorius continent. But the magic circle can only be activated with Raphael's power. Therefore he desperately broke the chains to escape from the Beast Kingdom quickly.

"Is it possible that these chains can only be untied by the guardian of the continent, Mr. Raphael?" King Regulus asked. He ran out of strength after trying to break the chain many times. But before Raphael could reply, a tremendous earthquake shook the secret room.

"Eh!?"

"What is this!?"

King Regulus and Prince Ozkar were shocked by the sudden earthquake.

"What happened? Was this the impact of the fight between that girl and the guardian of the continent?" Raphael muttered, and his face darkened.

"I must break this chain immediately!" Raphael gritted his teeth and tried to break the chain again.

After the two pillars of light disappeared, the land that collided instantly turned into a giant bottomless pit. Ziel and Sacred Demonel survived their opponent's attack but with their body parts not intact.

"I didn't expect you to be able to injure me to this extent when I had strengthened my body many times over after being hit by that angel race's attack." Sacred Demonel said in disbelief. The white light enveloped his body until his figure was completely covered.

[Extreme Reconstruction]

"Is that so?" Ziel asked nonchalantly. Then a large spirit circle appeared behind Ziel and rotated.

[Time Rewind]

The missing body parts of the two people slowly returned to their original state. After Ziel and Sacred Demonel finished healing themselves, neither of them attacked first.

"Looks like this time it's my turn to attack you." Ziel decided to attack the Sacred Demonel first and break their stalemate. He wanted to finish the fight immediately. He brandished his white sword, and a gigantic portal formed in the sky.

[Sky of Apocalypse]

[Fall]

A gigantic asteroid appeared from the portal and fell with astonishing speed towards the Sacred Demonel.

"Interesting!" The Sacred Demonel's face changed, and she raised her right hand. Dozens of hills merged into one and became the same size as the asteroid that Ziel dropped. Then the giant hill and the asteroid collided in the sky.

Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
