Chapter 297 Evil's Scion
?"Is it just me or the effects of Wrath's poison not diminishing over time?" Vanessa said as she created a ring of fire that kept the crowd of madman away from her. But only to fail as the effected people had lost their mind and started walking through the fire directly.
Originally effects of Wrath's poison only lasts for 10 minutes or so on average. But now it had already been more then 15 minutes since the crowd went nuts, yet no one seemed to be get back to their senses. If anything more and more people seemed to get effected by it.
"Someone is probably alive from their group, still spreading this shit." Rebecca said as she threw a water spell at Vanessa, that stopped the fire from burning those people to death. "We're here to save them, not kill them." she said and Vanessa just ignored it like she didn't hear anything.
Currently they were all surrounding a few apostles from the Golden Para temples, who had purifying and healing magic, which could get these people back to their senses. But just their name rank 'Apostle' was enough to tell their magic grade or mastery wasn't high enough. But still this was better than doing nothing or knocking out everyone.
"What are Nishkal family's guards or basically anyone else? I only see guests fighting and helping us." Alfred said as he looked everywhere.
At the beginning he was quite happy that his method seemed to be working as he dropped quite a lot of people on the ground. But over time he realized the problem. Now they didn't even have enough open space to move around in some areas. Cuz the ground was littered with bleeding, crawling maniacs.
"I hear more fighting sounds from upstairs. They're probably facing some other enemy members too." Saisha said and swung a long vine as a whip which threw 3-4 people away from them.
"There are also a lot more gods gathering every second. I don't think this attack is as simple as Wrath playing around." Rebecca said looking at the barrage of messages from various gods yet found nothing helpful.
'Damn that lazy panda, he probably gone back to his room by now and is sleeping soundly. Yet leaving us stuck here.' Rebecca cursed an 'innocent' white haired boy in anger, as her eyes glanced at the VIP rooms upstairs, before she watched the wall crumble and then fall apart.
A hooded figure came down the stairs holding a long serpentine dagger in his hands. With each step, the floor creaked below him. As marks of his footsteps left a burning corroded black mass of puddle behind his wake.
"One day Death and Ditail walked into a bar. Death said proudly - I can kill everyone inside this place with a flick of my finger, and reap their souls to bring them despair.
Ditail smiled and said - Is it like this? (Flicks his fingers and decimates everything in around him)
Death choked and replied - Well, you can kill them. But I'm their final destination. (The souls of everyone gets pulled to deaths hands)
You can be the sad destination, but I'm the unexpected plot twist. - Ditail said and tapped his fingers again. Decimating death itself."
?????
"No smiles and claps on this one too huh. I really thought it was a good one." A sigh and a disappointing voice came from the hood.
[Den of Devils laughs at the audacity of your lies.]
"Since you don't laugh at my joke, then you will never laugh again." A cold sinister sound echoed in everyone's ears and the aura of destruction around the hooded man completely changed.
His figure disappeared from its place and appeared in front of Alfred. "I heard you scoffing at my tale, little golden boy. You think that's funny."
Alfred raised a shield to block the raising hand of the hooded man instantly and disappeared from his place in a swish of a wind.
Only to see his shield getting destroyed, the instant dagger from the hooded man's hands touched the barrier.
"Cursed mana and Ditail's overrated praise, Evil's Scion." Alfred muttered and his expression turned serious.
Evil's Scion had one more thing besides cursed mana that made them dangerous. The toxins that induce fear, every hood of these guys was inscribed with patterns that threw off a dusty smell of death, which affects one's mind and makes them less susceptible to reality.
"So these psychos are behind this attack?" Vanessa asked as she created a dozen fireballs that floated all around her. Since the speed of the hooded figure gave her a little surprise.
"That explains why no backup arrived to help here." Rebecca nodded in agreement.
"And no one will." The hooded man said and pointed at the sky. "This space is sealed by a formation now, so as long as anyone of my buddies is alive, no one can leave."
"So we just have to kill you. Good, that makes it easier." Vanessa said and threw all the flames at the hooded man who just smiled seeing her attack.
Just when the fireballs were about to hit him, another hooded man who was sitting on the stairs watching all this drama from above, made a move.
"Fire is so overrated." The second hooded man said in disdain, as he raised his hand and threw a piece of paper in front of those balls of flames.
Next scene surprised Vanessa, as she saw her spell getting sucked into that tiny piece of paper.
"Tell me how much longer would your blessings save you from this poison, little girl?" The first hooded man said as he took a long whiff of poisoned air like he just smoked the best shit of the century.
His figure turned into a blur once again, as he rushed from one end to the other end. His position or path, only to be determined by the screams of men who suddenly lost a limb or their whole body turned into dust.
"Destroying stuff is always so easy for everyone. And I am the master of destruction." The hooded man said as he placed his hand on a man's skull and watched him slowly wither and die. Only to stop midway and excitedly say "Master of destruction, that's a nice title right. Damn. What do you _"
His words and smile stopped as he noticed the man's whole head was blown up and his body fell down lifeless. "Well, he's useless."
"What about you, princess? What do you think?" The hooded man said as he appeared beside Rebecca.
Only to stop an inch away from touching her, as Vanessa kicked him back and Saisha threw him away using a vine.
"Tsk, no fun." The hooded man said as he fell into a crowd of maniacs who jumped onto him. Only to die and disappear as he clapped his hands and a wave of destruction corroded everyone within one meter.
"End it, Ronie. Someone's causing trouble upstairs. Boss wants it done fast."
The first hooded man looked up and frowned a little. "Turns out our party's gonna be cut short, ants. I was planning to play with you lot to see which God would bid more for your deaths, but it seems my partners wants me to wrap it up fast."
The hooded man said something with a serious expression and raised his fingers "Eeney meeny miney moe, for whose head shall I go."
??
"Looks like luck's not on your side, little elf. You die first." The hooded man said and pointed at Saisha.
