Chapter 1794: The Angels are Surrounded
1794 The Angels are Surrounded
The two demigods saw what happened to the two gods that they were battling and were still in shock. They only managed to recover when Adrian suddenly vanished from the area. All the angels were also dead which made them feel like they have accomplished their tasks without any sacrifice.
The army and the two demigods knew that they needed to sacrifice some things and even lives in order to win. The fact that they were able to win the fight without dying made them cheer. The army knew that this was just a coincidental win because someone intervened, and the two demigods already had information on that someone.
"To think that the Reaper of the Gods was actually real." The male half elf stated as there were some rumors going about that a being was hunting down the gods of light and killing all the angels in the process.
"I am just glad that the being did not separate our heads off while we were also at our weakest. We can still join up with the others and attack the other conquered kingdoms." The female Cambion said as she looked at the army that they brought and could see that all of them had their legs giving out.
All of those that gazed through Adrian's body suddenly felt like death was coming to them. They had shortness of breath, time moved slower, and they felt their body getting colder as if death personified was coming to them. This is not an isolated case as all those that did witness Adrian's true form in all that power either fainted or thought they were crazy.
Adrian did not stop with his crusade of death as he managed to hunt down six more gods of light until he was summoned back in the underworld. The gods of death could no longer hold his true form without causing a backlash on him which is why he was told to stop. Even if Adrian did stop his current killing spree, fear has already been planted unto the gods of light that descended as they finally learned of what happened to the gods of light that were killed.
The Aspect of Death Thanatos personally visited the Gods Baldr, Magec, and Prende as they were the leaders of the gods of light that have descended unto the world. The Aspect of Death Thanatos delivered to them an eerie note saying that this is just a warning for the unstable death wave that they created. The next time that the Gods of Light do something like this again then all of them will be judged.
The Gods of Light that were captured were also sent straight to the underworld to be tortured. The ones in the list that Adrian was given were the ones that created bloodshed upon their descent. The ones that were spared were ones that have yet to kill any other being but are indeed lesser gods. There were still some in the list that Adrian was not able to kill but they were Greater Gods that did not leave the Sanctum of Light.
The Sanctum of Light is the greatest temple of the Gods of Light where they are also at their most powerful. There were at least ten more gods there which is why Adrian did not attack any of them. He would be walking inside a lion's den if he did so and be killed in the process. The Gods of Light did not take kindly to the threat of the gods of death, but they can only suck it in.
"Did they really capture them after killing them?" The God Baldr asked.
"I just returned from my divine realm and tried to reach out to those that were killed. They were not in their divine realm and the Goddess of Light Luminaria is not pleased. She is rampaging like a madman in the divine realm and cursing at the Gods of Death." The Goddess Prende stated.
"We are lucky that they only gave us a warning as we only invoked a large monster horde when we destroyed the world barrier. If we created a calamity that wiped off half the planet then all of the Gods of Death would surely not stand around and personally claim us." The God Magec stated.
"What is the condition of those that were captured?" The Goddess Prende asked as the gods of light were not killed but apprehended for their misdeeds.
"They are being tortured if the letter speaks true. The Aesir Gods would no longer participate in this foolishness now that even the Gods of Death have been angered. We will no longer work with you from this point on." The God Baldr stated as he decided that it is best that they no longer form an alliance with the Gods of Light under the Goddess Luminaria.
"You cannot do that on your own! You cannot break the vow that the God Odin himself has made." The God Magec stated.
"I can and I will because I have the authority to when the God Odin is at rest. Your goddess did not even inform us of what was happening. Some of the gods of light that were under me were also dragged to the underworld because of what happened.
We have sacrificed enough for this alliance that does not even bother to inform us of the important events that are happening. This is where we part ways and I hope that whatever you are planning would be successful, but we would no longer be part of it." The God Baldr stated as he vanished from the Sanctum of Light.
"Coward! I thought those Aesir Gods are the bravest and most brutal, but they ran away when the Gods of Death became angry." The God Magec stated.
"They have already done their end of the bargain. It is actually a shock that they kept in contact and were helping us until now. Still, the God Baldr was correct. The Goddess Luminaria should have told us that the other gods were killed by a warrior sent by the Gods of Death. Now, we are now only ten in number from the previous thirty." The Goddess Prende stated.
"It does not matter. We can still rule this continent as long as we have the angels on our side." The God Magec stated but someone suddenly burst into their meeting room.
"Who dares!" The God Magec stated as he saw an angel with a burnt wing rush to them.
"Apologies, gods of light... but... the winged lizards! They have come and started burning the kingdom!" The angel reported as the screams of all the beings in the city suddenly echoed in the area to which the gods of light could hear.
The dragons did not only attack the kingdoms that were inhabited by the angels but also the Silver City directly. About thirty dragons have been transported outside of the Silver City by the Daemos. All of them spewed their dragon breaths towards the Silver City which invoked its powerful barrier.
Despite not being able to damage the barrier after using their dragon breath for ten minutes, the dragons did not stop as they were out for blood. All of them continued in using their dragon breaths until the barrier started to shake. All the angels in the Silver City started to panic as they started using their own magic to reinforce the barrier.
The angels thought that the dragons would have been tired after an hour, but they were severely mistaken. After an hour, ten more dragons arrived to contribute to the destruction of the barrier to the Silver City. As if to add fuel to the fire, the kingdom where the Sanctum of Light is located started to be the object of revenge for the dragons as well.
"Gabriel! We are surrounded! The lizards managed to cure the disease that we have inflicted on them! We should never have trusted those Followers of the Dark Gods and the fallen eastern gods!" Raphael stated as she was the one using most of her power to create the barrier around the Silver City.
"I have even received news that some of the gods of light were killed in action." Uriel stated.
"Most of the angels that we also deployed reported a being that easily killed them. I made sure to use my Light Vision to see everything that the light touches, but it must have happened on the dark areas that I reported to you about." Camael stated.
"What should we do?" Zadkiel asked Gabriel since Mikhail was still recuperating.
"We shall fight back as intended. We are the righteous ones in this world and the only pure beings that should exist." A voice from within the hall suddenly stated as Mikhail showed himself.
"Have you recovered?" Gabriel asked.
"I have recovered enough as the Goddess Luminaria is not pleased which is why she gave me strength. Gabriel, prepare to use the Light Wing Domain. All of us shall go into battle!" Mikhail stated.
