Chapter 324 Backlash
On the ground, Kha-Beleth suddenly stopped and stood on the spot.
The raging flames on his body suddenly shrank a lot, causing the shape of his body in the flames to become much clearer.
Kha-Beleth opened his mouth, revealing the gaps of his sharp teeth, and sneered malevolently at Roy. “Demon Osiris, I admit that I’ve underestimated you. But you have to understand one thing-high-rank demons are high-rank demons, and demon lords are demon lords. This is a qualitative difference determined by the hierarchy of the Abyss!”
“So?” Roy smiled at him.
“So...” Kha-Beleth was very unhappy with Roy’s smile and said coldly, “So I want you to engrave today’s foolish actions into your memory forever!”
With that, the flames that had contracted into Kha-Beleth’s body suddenly erupted again! But this time, they soared straight toward the sky.
Kha-Beleth transformed into a massive flame pillar. This bright flame pillar pierced through the black clouds that Roy had created and drilled a giant hole in the sky. Vast magic power turned into endless flames and poured into the clouds above.
Gem and Zehir, who were far away from the Ur-Hekal battlefield, saw this flame pillar piercing the sky, and as the flame pillar rose higher and higher, everyone in Eeofol could see it.
Afterward, even nearby countries could observe the weather phenomenon. What they saw was a burning red sky! “What is it?!” The people of Ashan were shocked and doubtful about the change in Eeofol. Many fortune-tellers began to seek prophecies from the gods they believed in, while kings sought answers from the prophets. But no matter how they calculated, they found that the future was shrouded in mist, making it impossible to see clearly.
They only roughly knew that this might have something to do with the demons, especially the kingdoms of Bracada and AvLee. They knew that Gem and the others were in Eeofol. This phenomenon most likely had something to do with the demons, so they were greatly worried. Although they wanted to send troops to take a look, there was no use due to being so far away. They could only watch the strange red sky nervously... The people in Eeofol were probably the ones having the deepest experience. At this moment, an incomparably immense flame vortex appeared in the sky. In this vortex, two flames were spinning in reverse. With the flame pillar of Kha-Beleth as the center, they formed an enormous eye. With the continuous infusion of Kha-Beleth’s magic power, this enormous eye rapidly expanded and soon covered a range of thousands of kilometers.
The alliance soldiers under Gem were trembling with fear. As long as they looked up, they would see an extremely oppressive fiery-red sky. No matter how stupid they were, they knew that they were within the strike range of some powerful magic.
Mom, I want to go home... The soldiers stared blankly at the sky, and tears involuntarily flowed...
“What is Kha-Beleth doing?” Julia and Benia looked in the direction of the distant Ur-Hekal in surprise. They could naturally feel the shocking release of magic power. But the problem was that they could only feel the Kha-Beleth’s magic power and not Roy’s, giving them the feeling that Roy was at a disadvantage and making them extremely worried.
However, what they did not know was that Roy, who was not far from Kha-Beleth, was clicking his tongue and sighing loudly. “F*ck, are you finally using an ultimate move?” Roy looked at the sky excitedly. “It’s truly astonishing. How much magic power would there be if I converted it into a number?”
According to Roy’s estimation, if magic power could reach more than a hundred thousand, it was probably at the level of a demon lord. But this referred to the most basic level. Who knew how many years it had been since Kha-Beleth became a demon lord. The magic power he displayed definitely far exceeded this number, and Roy could not estimate by how much it exceeded it.
Roy’s magic power could also cause a weather phenomenon, but he could not reach such a massive area like Kha-Beleth. The flames shrouded Roy’s vision, and he could not see the end, so he could not help but ask Kha-Beleth, “Are you planning to destroy all your demons and cities?” “Hmph!” Kha-Beleth was focusing on outputting his magic power, and he did not even dare to move. He only set up a flame shield around him to guard against Roy’s attack. After hearing Roy’s question, he snorted disdainfully. “This is a declaration, a necessary declaration! I want to tell the people of this world that after a thousand years, we will return to the world, and the iron hooves of the Abyss will completely destroy this pathetic Ashan world!”
Roy rubbed his chin and asked curiously, “Does this declaration of returning to the world start with destroying your territory? What kind of unique move is this? Does this mean that you even hit yourself when you’re ruthless?”
“...” Kha-Beleth choked at Roy’s words. Then he flew into a rage out of humiliation and shouted angrily, “Shut up! A demon lord’s will cannot be sullied. Osiris, die here!”
After speaking, he swung his flame scythe and slammed it heavily onto the ground.
“Rain of Calamity!!”
With Kha-Beleth’s shout, small fireballs began to fall from the sky one after another. These fireballs were not big, but they were endless like rain!
This was a rain of flames that enveloped all of Eeofol. Endless fireballs smashed down from high above, igniting trees and evaporating rivers!
The sky was burning; the ground was scorching; rocks were melting into magma; iron and steel turned into liquid metal. Amid mountains collapsing and the earth splitting, countless animals and creatures were fleeing in all directions while screaming. But they were quickly burnt into ashes by the falling rain of flames. The already harsh environment of Eeofol completely turned into a genuine purgatory at this moment! Under the pouring of the rain of flames, Eeofol became a sea of fire. Kha-Beleth laughed wildly while appreciating his masterpiece. Looking at the dense rain of flames melting the thick ice around Roy, he felt a burst of pleasure. “Burn! Burn! Feel this powerlessness, hateful frost demon! You will never be able to defeat us flame demons!”
Facing the endless flames, Roy could not avoid them and could only choose to defend. But Roy, who was under the protection of an ice wall, looked at Kha-Beleth’s arrogant attitude and sighed deeply. “It doesn’t matter if you want to kill me, but... is this really good? Don’t you want your son?”.
Hearing this, Kha-Beleth was stunned.
Roy continued, “Yes, it’s about time, right? Earlier, my servant sent me a message saying that Isabel started to give birth. She has probably already given birth by now... Not bad. That child was just born and can already see such big fireworks...”
“You... you...” Kha-Beleth almost vomited blood when he heard Roy’s words.
Indeed, from the very beginning, Kha-Beleth had guessed that Isabel was definitely in Roy’s hands. Otherwise, that succubus would not have turned into Isabel to deceive him. But the problem was that if Roy wanted to hide Isabel, he had no way to find her at all. He could only threaten him and force him to hand over Isabel.
Unfortunately, Roy had the intention to challenge a demon lord like him. The suppression of the hierarchy could no longer make him submit, so he could only do it himself.
Kha-Beleth initially thought that he could capture this so-called high-rank demon easily, but he did not expect him to be a frost demon and naturally have the ability to resist his attribute. Without using his full strength, he could not defeat him.
And after being imprisoned in Sheogh for ten centuries, Kha-Beleth had not really fought anyone. He was a flame demon and had a fiery temper. He had merely been suppressing it for his plan all this time. After fighting Roy for a while, his suppressed anger was gradually released, and he even forgot about Isabel!
The moment when he decided to use his ultimate move, he did not even consider Isabel’s situation at all. He was only thinking about killing Roy. So when Roy suddenly mentioned Isabel, he was stunned.
This large-range attack was very satisfying, but this meant that his attack even covered the place where Isabel was hiding. This way, it was equivalent to him personally killing his child...
Roy was not lying either. In fact, after killing Xeron and taking Isabel away, Roy had checked Isabel’s situation and found that she was indeed going to give birth soon. So when he returned to Ur-Hekal, he had asked Cassandra to stay behind to take care of Isabel. Cassandra was now with Isabel about two hundred kilometers away from Ur-Hekal. After Roy and Kha-Beleth started fighting, the alliance army had also retreated to a nearby place, so under Roy’s command, Fat Tiger ran to guard alongside Cassandra.
Just over twenty minutes ago, Cassandra reported that Isabel woke up through telepathy with Roy, and her waking up meant that she was about to give birth...
Under the protection of Cassandra and Fat Tiger, the rain of flames falling from the sky could not harm Isabel and her child in a short time, but it was hard to say after a long time. Of course, Roy could not let Kha-Beleth continue like this, so he chose to say it at this time.
Roy had planned this from the beginning. He knew that Kha-Beleth, as a demon lord, definitely had some trump card. And Isabel and the Child of Taboo, the Darkness Messiah, were what he was using to counter Kha-Beleth.
Now, this card was in effect. After Kha-Beleth finally recovered from his dumbfounded state, he hurriedly revoked his ultimate move.
However, after preparing for so long and releasing such a massive and astonishing amount of magic power, how could he take it back so quickly? Under Roy’s gaze, Kha-Beleth suddenly howled and spat out a mouthful of blood that was as hot as magma!
This guy suffered from magic power backlash...
