Chapter 364: Bloody Family

Chapter 364: Bloody Family

*Bam* *Clang*

After blocking Donna's ax for the tenth time, the female angel with the shield retreats close to her husband, who also managed to block several attacks from Wrath while the tracker's husband was dodging Sophia's arrows.

"Those are tougher..." Donna comments as she takes a deep breath. She had to use a lot of demonic energy to kill those other angels fast, and now she is not generating much of that while the shielded angels just block her attacks.

Wrath feels her demonic energy near the end. Fighting dozens of Earth Realm enemies was easy as they generate a lot of demonic energy and had control over the situation. But now, with those few Sky Realm angels, the situation is complicated.

'Okay, we can do that. The hardest part was killing half of them.' Wrath speaks in Donna's mind.

Donna smiles as she speaks out loud. "Of course we can. These idiots just know to defend their asses behind those shields."

The female angel makes a furious expression while talking to the tracker's husband. "We must attack now. They are already tired."

The leader keeps one hand on the female angel's shoulder with a shield and the other hand on the other angel's shoulder, boosting them as they block everything ahead with their shields.

*Bam* *Bam* *Bam* *Bam*

Sophia's magic arrows hit the shields and explode, pushing them backward, but they take no damage. The other angels were caught off guard because of her illusion, but these three angels are very attentive and know how to fight together, especially the couple of angels with shields. Also, the current leader is from the Sky Realm third layer while the others are from the second layer.

"Let's do this!" Wrath exclaims and flaps her wings, highly jumping towards the angels.

"YEAHH!!" Donna shouts and runs towards them with her ax exuding demonic energy.

"Get ready!!!" The angel leader speaks while his hands shine more brightly.

The couple of angels with shields closely watch the movements of Wrath and Donna. In the air, Wrath dematerializes her body and reappears behind the angels, already launching a powerful attack with her warhammer while Donna approaches from the other side.

They are surprised at Wrath's ability to teleport that easily, but the angels' speed is still slightly higher, and the male angel quickly turns his shield, blocking Wrath's attack while his wife blocks Donna's ax.

*BAM*

The attacks happen at the same time and push both angels back. They are increasingly surprised by the incredible strength of Wrath and Donna.

But the angels remain calm, even as Sophia's magic arrows approach them. Unable to move the shields under the attacks of Wrath and Donna, the angel leader raises his hands toward the arrows, and a bright flash of light mana blocks Sophia's attacks, also momentarily blinding the sisters.

"NOW!!" The leading angel shouts and the other angels push their shields forward with all their strength, making Wrath and Donna take a step back.

So the three angels quickly take pills of power just like the tracker did. They know they will need more strength than defense to defeat their enemies.

Donna recovers quickly and in time to block the female angel's attack. That angel, despite using a large tower-type shield, is very agile and swings her short sword with high skill while also using the shield as a weapon.

Wrath, on the other hand, does not need to block the attacks of the male angel with a shield as she can dematerialize her body to avoid his blade while trying to strike him. Yet, she is having a hard time hitting his body directly because his skill with the shield is really incredible.

At the same time, the angel leader flies towards Sophia. "The archer is mine!"

Sophia fires a few more arrows at the angel, but he dodges them. Then her bow disappears, returning to her soul as she gets exhausted.

She is not a warrior now and never has been. She was a healing mage before she met Sloth, and now their 'sin' forces her body always to be relaxed and not in a state of alertness and adrenaline.

Just as Lucien's nature makes him want to feel and cause pleasure, Sophia's nature makes her want to just relax all the time. Although she can force her body to act momentarily to fight, she can't do it any longer now, especially after spending most of her demonic energy.

While watching the leading angel fly towards her with a white staff in hand, she is confused.

'Why are you so calm?' She asks Sloth as she continues to sit on her floating pillow.

'Why shouldn't I be calm?' Sloth answers with another question.

Sophia quickly responds. 'I think we're screwed... This is not a good thing, right?'

'No...' Sloth slowly responds. 'Look down.'

Sophia quickly looks down and sees the tattoo she got from Lucien on her low belly area glowing with beautiful purple through her clothes.

"He is here!!!" She opens a beautiful, wide smile as she tries to feel Lucien's presence through their connection.

The angel leader points his staff's blade at Sophia as he approaches her, but then he sees her smile and looks aside.

He was expecting any reaction from her, like trying to escape or defend herself, but that smile... that happy expression doesn't make any sense for the current situation.

[Unless...] The angel tries to look in the direction Sophia is looking, but at the same time that he feels a strong wind wave reaching his body, something hard as metal hits his face.

*BAM!!*

He had never felt such a blow in his life. One punch, charged with a strange and incredibly powerful energy, which makes him lose control of his body as he is thrown towards the ground.

*Booooom*

The angel's body creates a new crater in the ground while a cloud of dust and sand clouds the view of everyone in that area.

He quickly gets up from the ground and ignores the pain as he tries to find his attacker inside that dust cloud.

"WHO!?!?!" He screams as he picks up a dagger from his storage ring because he lost his staff after being hit.

*Wooosh*

He hears a noise behind him and turns quickly, just in time to see a purple figure disappear into the dust. "Show yourself, bastard!!"

The dust starts to settle, and that angel wipes away sweat, dirt, and some of his blood from his face while listening to the sounds of the fight of the other angels at a short distance.

Then he feels a bad foreboding, a cold in his spine…

*Wooosh* *Wooosh*

Before that angel notices his attacker, he suffers two deep cuts behind his knees. The wound seems to burn not his body but to directly attack his soul, and of course, also weakening his body.

"AAAAAHHH!!!!" He screams in pain as he kneels, still holding the dagger firmly while trying to contain his fear.

The dust settles, and the angel sees Lucien in front of him, smiling at him with a sinister expression as his eyes burn with purple flames and strands of golden-gray energy.

"YOU!!" The angel points the dagger at Lucien while his hands begin to shine with light mana. He also tries to get up, but his legs do not obey him due to the deep injuries.

*Wooosh*

Lucien quickly makes a cutting motion with his arms, and the golden naginata appears in his hands as he cuts both arms of that angel.

The movement is very fast, and the angel just feels his body and soul burn while the white light fades. Blood flows from the angel's severed arms as he cries out in pain and despair.

His agonized cry draws the attention of the other angels, Wrath, and Donna, who look at him and Lucien in the center of the new crater.

The couple of angels with shields are afraid, of course. If the fight seemed lost before, now they know that only death awaits them if they continue to fight those crazy demons.

Seeing that handsome demon covered in blood, exuding anger, confidence, and pure power, Wrath's eyes shine with expectation. She knows he should be her host's little brother, but he seems to be very interesting.

Donna looks at Lucien with a perplexed expression. His physical changes surprise her, but still, what shocks her to the soul is the speed and strength that he used to defeat that angel so easily. He seems to be stronger than her, but how could that be possible?

Sophia, still sitting on her floating pillow, smiles lovingly at him as she tries to contain the urge to run and hug him and not stop hugging for days, weeks, months if possible.

But she listens to Sloth's advice. 'Stay calm and let him do this. Let him show his power and that he can protect the woman he loves.'

While the angel leader cries tears of blood, Lucien quickly reaches behind him and puts his red katana on his neck. Then Lucien makes him look at his friends before Sophia.

"Look at her..." Lucien speaks in a loud tone as he forces the katana against the angel's neck. "She is so beautiful and serene... you race is called angel, but she should be the real angel here... with her kindness and compassion..."

That angel can't see or hear anything while his mind goes crazy with fear and pain. But Sophia's smile gets broader and brighter as she listens carefully to Lucien's words.

Lucien smiles at her. "How could anyone attack such a perfect creature?"

"N-N-NO-" The angel tries to speak, but Lucien slowly cuts his throat while holding his hair. He flaps his wings desperately while bleeding rivers of blood to death.

"My wife... my lover..." Lucien speaks lovingly while the blood of the angel flows.

Then he looks at Donna, Wrath, and the other angels and speaks while the purple flames continue to shine in his eyes. "My sisters... my family..."

The couple of angels with shields already faced difficult fights together. They have felt fear many times and were definitely scared when facing just Wrath and Donna.

Feeling afraid is part of the battle; fear makes them fight at their best to stay alive; they can deal with that kind of fear.

But that feeling that Lucien gives with just one look; a frighteningly sinister look that says he'll do anything for those women, and certainly no one will want to harm them to meet his fury…

That feeling that they offend someone they shouldn't... that's not something that couple of angels can handle.

"RUN!!" The male angel runs towards Donna while he yells to his wife to run. He knows that one of them has a better chance of escaping than both.

But as soon as the male angel looks in the direction of his wife, he sees a woman behind her, or rather a demon. Before he manages to warn her, two long black daggers pierce her chest.

The female angel's wings start to freeze as Amelia jumps over her shield while spiking her white swords in her shoulders.

"NOOOO!!!" The male angel screams as he flies towards his wife.

But at that moment, he lowers his guard, and Wrath appears above him, already bringing her warhammer down and hitting his back.

*BAM!* *Crack*

The loud sound of his wings bones being broken echoes in his heart as he sees the blood splashes from his wife's neck as Envy and Amelia behead her.

So the sight of Donna's ax is the last thing he sees as he goes crazy in pain and despair. His regret cannot be described.

The heads of those angels roll on the ground while the siblings look at each other with smiles and happy expressions. It looks like a lively family reunion and not a deadly and brutal combat.

That huge amount of blood on their bodies and corpses on the ground doesn't seem to affect them as if that kind of situation is usual for them.

And well, it will be more and more usual as everything around goes into chaos while that peculiar family keeps their way bloody.
