Chapter 354 Aethelwolf Against the Entire Underworld Army

Aethelwolf released his Transcendent aura. His clothes fluttered and the air around him fluctuated violently. Five years ago when he was still a Level 5 Esper, he has to use the Seal Weakening Rune and ask for the help of several dozen Level 5 Esper just to somehow weaken a Transcendent rune. However, things were different now.

Aethelwolf's world essence was like a torrent as he bombarded the heart of the Transcendent rune. He was also an Engraver so he knew which part to attack best.

At this moment, the Transcendent-level Protective Rune finally showed its might. Numerous soul needles attacked Aethelwolf. They were invisible to the naked eye and only those with strong perceptive abilities could see them.

Aethelwolf summoned a barrier around himself and Ramiel. When the soul needles touched the surface of the barrier, they were absorbed and lost their power.

Ramiel could barely perceive the soul needles. Without the help of Aethelwolf, he would have had a hard time blocking those soul needles. 'King Aethelwolf's strength has increased again!' He thought to himself.

Aethelwolf didn't even need to take out his weapons. He managed to destroy a large portion of the Transcendent-level Protective Rune in just slightly over three minutes.

Soon, cracks appeared on the Protective Rune and it quickly crumbled under Aethelwolf's unending attacks.

The moment the Protective Rune was destroyed, they saw a huge army of Underworlders looking at them warily.

"Underworlders!" Ramiel's eyes flashed with hatred when he saw them.

As for Aethelwolf, he stared at the towering Underworlder who emitted an overwhelming aura.

"Peak Transcendence? You must be Bralgorach, the Ancient Lord of the Underworlders." Aethelwolf muttered.

"My lord, that man was the person who killed Gozgel and Zorzoch! Don't underestimate him!" Semias warned while glancing warily at Aethelwolf.

Bralgorach narrowed his eyes upon hearing this. He had already heard about the Level 5 Esper who managed to kill Gozgel. The same man also reached Transcendence after killing Zorzoch. "I've heard a lot about you from my men, Aethelwolf. For you to destroy the Protective Rune I created means that you are also a Transcendent-level Engraver."

"I didn't know that the almighty Bralgorach is actually a chatty person. I've learned a lot today." Aethelwolf chuckled while staring mockingly at them.

Aethelwolf's arrogance irked Bralgorach. "Don't be arrogant, boy! You weren't even born yet when I caused chaos in the Regalis Continent!" His furious voice echoed in all directions and the aura of a peak Transcendence was released.

"Kill him!" Bralgorach shouted.

The army of Underworlders issued a loud battle cry as they rushed towards Aethelwolf. Most of them couldn't fly so they just bombarded him with powerful attacks.

Semias also made a move. His figure flashed like a phantom as he made his way towards Aethelwolf. A sword appeared in his hand and he slash it down in a savage manner.

Looking at all the attacks coming towards him, Aethelwolf turned his body into a humanoid flame. He was like a Fire God as he clashed with Semias and the army of Underworlders. Whoever came in contact with his burning body was ignited into flames and burned into ashes. Only Semias managed to protect himself from Aethelwolf's deadly flames.

'How did this guy become so strong when is only an early stage Transcendent expert?!' Semias roared indignantly in his heart. The strength displayed by Aethelwolf was beyond his imagination.

The flames around Aethelwolf's body burned even more intensely as the fighting continued. This was the unique characteristic of his [Flame God Body]. His flames would continue to become stronger the longer the fight was. Among his arsenal of skills, this was the strongest skill he managed to create in terms of damage and defense.

All Semias could do at this point was dodge his strikes. He didn't dare touch Aethelwolf's body. He felt that he would be burned if he touched him.

"So this is what it feels like to be ignored..." Ramiel muttered as he stared at the battle between Aethelwolf and the entire Underworld army. He didn't even need the help of the allied army now. He could fight against the entire army of Underworlders all by himself!

Meanwhile, Bralgorach was also starting to become serious. The strength that Aethelwolf showed exceeded his expectations. 'I have to kill him now!' He grabbed a giant ancient halberd from out of nowhere and lunged towards Aethelwolf.

He hacked down the halberd as if he was trying to destroy the world. Electric arcs appeared on the surface of the halberd.

BOOOM!!

Bralgorach frowned as he stared at the cloud of dust. He didn't feel that he had hit someone. 'How did he evade my attack? Did he sense me coming?'

"Are you looking for me?" A calm voice drifted into his ears.

"Hm?" Bralgorach brandished his halberd behind him, but Aethelwolf's figure blurred and reappeared at a distance.

"You are strong, but I am faster than you." Aethelwolf muttered tauntingly.

ROOOAAARRR!!!

Bralgorach roared in rage. His aura became even more powerful. He no longer held himself back and decided to confront Aethelwolf with all his might. "Die now!"

Bralgorach's attacks didn't distinguish between enemies and allies. Many Underworlders who were nearby were killed by the powerful shockwaves caused by his attacks.

Aethelwolf grabbed his weapon, it was a Transcendent-Rated sword that was purple in color.

The flames around Aethelwolf's body turned purple and the sword in his hand disappeared as if it had merged with him. Powerful Sword Momentum suddenly exploded from Aethelwolf's body. Thousands of burning sword qi rained down from the skies that burned the army of Underworlders.

Bralgorach was also hit by numerous burning sword qi, but they only managed to leave some scratches on his gigantic body. "No wonder you managed to kill Gozgel and Zorzoch when you were only a Level 5 Esper. It was because of this Sword Momentum, but you are not the only one who has comprehended Weapon Momentum!"

Suddenly, Bralgorach's aura became sharper and his body increased by more than half his usual size!
