Chapter 346 Nox Vs...
The crimson-horned basilisk was actually wounded by a group of Valkyries. However, just when they were about to deal the finishing blow after draining the beast of its health, it suddenly made an escape for its dear life.
Because the crimson-horned basilisk was a relatively high-level creature, the Valkyries had given it an intense chase.
But who would've thought that... their prized monster wouldn't only be killed but by a human? What was a human doing here in the first place?
It was common knowledge that humans weren't allowed to step foot inside this kingdom.
The leader of the Valkyries wasted no time. Her blade gleamed with holy light as she pointed it toward Nox, her voice ringing with authority. "A male in our sacred land? You must be eliminated!"
All the Valkyries present exchanged a glance, and without hesitation, the squad surged forward, their weapons raised.
'This is bad,' Akira thought as she quickly hid behind a giant rock at the side. She watched what would soon become a clash between her sisters and her new friend.
Nox's dark eyes narrowed. He stepped to the side, dodging the first sword strike easily. His calm composure never wavered, even as beams of radiant energy cut through the air around him.
'They're coordinated,' Nox noted, his mind working like a computer as he analyzed them. 'But they're not that skilled. Their levels are lacking.'
All the Valkyries were between levels 30 and 40.
A Valkyrie on his left lunged at him at that moment, forcing him out of his thoughts. The Valkyrie's spear was glowing with golden fire. Nox ducked under the strike, his body moving fluidly as if he were predicting her every move—which, in a way, he was.
"You'll need more than flashy light tricks to keep up with me," Nox whispered in a low voice as he kicked the ground and threw his body backward, just in time to avoid a white energy beam that struck the ground where he had stood.
Boom!
The strike blew the earth open, and a 50-meter-deep crater appeared, the edges crackling with white energy.
"Be careful! This male is dangerous," one of the Valkyries whispered to the others as they regrouped, forming a triangle-shaped formation.
"Tsk. Since you attacked me first, don't blame me for going all out," Nox sneered. With a sharp flick of his wrist, he activated [Runic Dominion]. Blood-red patterns appeared before him, and weapon constructs made of blood materialized around him, their serrated edges glinting menacingly.
The Valkyries faltered for a brief moment when they saw this skill, their grips tightening on their weapons.
The leader gritted her teeth. "Focus! He's just one man!"
But their confidence was quickly eroded as Nox's weapons shot forward, cutting through their defenses like a knife through butter. One by one, the Valkyries were forced to retreat.
Nox's eyes were practically glowing as the blood weapons spun around him like a tornado, slowly lifting him into the air and making him appear like a warrior god. With a simple flick of his arm, the blood weapons attacked the Valkyries.
Akira was wide-eyed as she watched the battle unfold from behind the rock. She had seen her fair share of powerful warriors, but the monstrous precision and ruthlessness with which Nox dismantled the Valkyries left her speechless.
Her gaze lingered on his form—calm, composed, and utterly dominant. The way he moved, the way he controlled the flow of the fight… it was almost mesmerizing.
Meanwhile, the Valkyries were growing desperate. They still couldn't believe they were about to be overwhelmed by this human male.
The leader clenched her fist and called out to her squad in a strained voice: "Reform! Use the Divine Aegis!"
The remaining Valkyries rallied together, their auras flaring as they formed a barrier of holy light around themselves. At that moment, they finally recognized the presence hiding behind the rock.
"It's the princess! Lady Akira! Help us!" one of them cried out, her voice trembling with desperation.
But Akira didn't respond. Her focus remained solely on Nox, her lips parted slightly as if in awe.
"Damn it, she's ignoring us!" another Valkyrie shouted, her shield arm shaking under the strain of the battle.
Nox's blood weapon constructs launched forward again, slamming into the barrier with unstoppable force. Cracks began to form, and the Valkyries' expressions shifted from determination to fear.
The leader gritted her teeth, sweat rolling down her temple.
'How is this possible? He's not even at a high level!' she thought, her mind tumultuous. 'His power… it's unnatural. Is he even human?'
When the barrier finally shattered, the Valkyries were sent flying back like ragdolls, some slamming into the ground.
Nox stepped forward, his gaze cold and calculating. His constructs hovered menacingly above the fallen women.
"I guess I need to get rid of them to cover all my tracks and not put Akira in trouble," Nox mumbled to himself quietly. He raised one arm, and the glow on the blood weapons skyrocketed as a soft hum filled the air.
"No, wait—!" The leader's eyes trembled as she opened her mouth to speak, but her words were cut off as Nox raised his hand, preparing to deliver the final blow.
"Stop!"
Before he could deliver the killing blow, Akira's voice rang out. She finally came out of her daze and stepped out from behind the rock she had been hiding behind.
Nox turned to her, his eyes narrowing slightly as he said in a deep voice that sounded like a growl, "What are you doing?" Explore new worlds at empire
"Please don't kill them," she pleaded, clasping her hands together.
"They attacked me first," Nox pointed out, his tone calm but dangerous. "Also, they'll probably bring more harm than good, so…"
