Chapter 1796: The Six Virtues II
1796 The Six Virtues II
Zadkiel, the angel that is said to be the most difficult opponent, is now begging for Bronx to stop. Anyone would think that a mage that can seal skills would be able to topple their opponents as long as their spell hits but that is the case if their enemy needed skills. Bronx, or rather the Diabolon, rarely cast spells or skills which is even more for the Diabolon Daemos elder.
The world itself distorts when a Diabolon moves because force, time and space are all coating their bodies like an invisible armor. This is called Complete Origin Armor which is obtained by Diabolon once they become an Arch Demon. All the spells that hit them can be negated with a chance of it being 80%.
The 20% chance of a spell succeeding to break their defenses would just hit their naturally magic resistant body. This is the reason why the Diabolon species is the toughest among the Daemos species when it comes to magic. They are also the ones that charge first into the frontline because the Origin Armor is not only perfect for magic attacks but also physical attacks.
The special armor that the Diabolon has distorts the very space and time around them which can easily disturb the flow of kinetic energy. A swords master must coat their weapon with aura to even have a chance of hitting them with a physical attack. It would need someone that is at the same level as them in order to deal damage to a Diabolon.
Diabolons are basically a force of nature that cannot be bent. All seals are ineffective against them unless they use a specific skill and not rely on their own body. They are basically the perfect counter to Zadkiel, the Angel of Righteousness.
"There are no gods here it seems. Did the youngest already kill them all or have they all gone into hiding?" Bronx stated as he knew that Adrian was killing off all the gods of light as per the reports that he received.
Bronx actually expected gods to attack him which is why he did not stop using all his full power for the first time. Even the other Diabolons that he came with are giving it their all and destroying everything in their wake. The angels that tried to stop them are having a difficult time because stopping rampaging beings that can teleport is not easy.
The Silver City that could be seen as pristine and beautiful has become rather dull in the east side. Most of the buildings are already in bits of rubble or look like a gust of wind can destroy them. The angels also lost a lot of their lives when they tried to physically block a Diabolon. Some of them even became scared as one of them exploded into bits of light when they tried to physically stop the charge of one of the Diabolons.
"This cannot be! I am one of the Seven Virtues! I will not be shamed!" Zadkiel stated as she flew back to the skies but this time, she did not use mediocre spells.
Zadkiel released all of her magic aura in the surroundings which created numerous seals. She was even able to seal the mana in the air which is quite a feat. This interference of mana might be effective against spell casters but is not a deterrent to the Diabolon. In fact, she restricted her own allies instead of her enemies.
The angels were now defenseless against the other Diabolon as they rampaged, but Zadkiel became much more powerful. Zadkiel actually becomes more powerful with the number of beings that has a sealed spell or skill due to her. She has gained a lot of power because she no longer cared what beings were affected by her own innate power even if it is her own allies.
"I shall let you taste despair! Light Scripture: World Seal!" Zadkiel stated as magical writings could be seen exploding out from her wings.
The area that Zadkiel and Bronx are fighting in suddenly had all the color around it become dull. The words of light are all restricting even the space around them which makes it impossible to escape for a normal being but not for a Diabolon. Bronx just emitted a roar and an energy orb suddenly appeared or rather materialized on top of his horns.
"Origin Bomb!" Bronx stated as he released this pure mass of energy unto the sky.
The Origin Bomb collided with the Light Scripture: World Seal and it destroyed the very skill that Zadkiel was proud of. All the energy that she used was destroyed in an instant by one attack. The destruction of the Light Scripture: World Seal also created a backlash towards Zadkiel as her wings were part of the seal function.
Zadkiel's wings failed and her body started to fall to the ground while Bronx moved in to secure the kill. Bronx would have killed Zadkiel then and there but another of the Seven Virtues came to rescue. Camael arrived just in time to save Zadkiel from getting killed.
"Another one? And this one seems to have a special ability as well." Bronx stated as he could feel some of his strength slowly leaving his body, but it is only such a miniscule degree that he cannot even feel it leaving unless he was focusing.
"Are all the Daemos this monstrous? Usually, any being that sees me will need to surrender their health and mana to me, but I can feel that my blessing can barely squeeze anything from him." Camael stated as she released numerous light rays in order to create a screen that can protect them from Bronx.
"I do not want to admit it, but my ability is useless against that beast. He does not use any notable skills as his body is almost built perfectly to the point that any skills will be useless. Report this matter to Gabriel as he would be the only one to stop him." Zadkiel stated as she recovered from the backlash.
"I cannot leave you here or else you might be killed. Uriel is busy dealing with the six dragon kings outside which is why she cannot help you with this battle. Only I can help you, but I am more of a supporter myself. We will be able to defeat him if we work together! It is just one Arch Demon." Camael stated as she is confident that she can win with Zadkiel's help.
"We cannot defeat him as we are not built to handle a being like him. I felt it when my Light Scripture: World Seal was destroyed. That Arch Demon is one step away from becoming a demigod or rather the world itself is sealing his power which is why he cannot become a demigod. If I am not wrong, he is an elder of the Daemos.
He is just one of the elders which is why I am afraid because what if the other elders were like him. They are beings of pure power that is being held by the world itself. They are prevented from becoming demigods because of the influence of the world barrier.
Tell Mikhail and Gabriel that we must not shatter the World Barrier for High Gods as of now. If not, then we will release the seals on those monsters. They can potentially erase us from existence as we have provoked beings that we cannot hope to defeat." Zadkiel stated as she emitted mana towards Camael, and she was transformed into a beam of light that shot towards the Tower of Babel.
"It seems that you have saved your comrade. I did not think that angels were the type to care as all of you would get at each other's throat in the pursuit of power." Bronx stated.
"I have seen what you truly are! I have seen what your forms really are when you hit me with your attack. How can such anomalous beings exist in this dimension!" Zadkiel stated as she stood up.
Bronx twitched a bit on what Zadkiel spoke about as he suddenly realized that she is more of a threat than Mikhail. The fact that she was able to pierce the veil that shrouded the Daemos meant that she has seen what their bodies are made of. Just like what she said, she now has an idea that the Daemos were not created from this universe.
"You would have been kept alive if you did not see anything special, but it seems that your perceptiveness will bring upon your doom. The youngest said that all of you angels will revive even when you die as your souls are tethered to the Silver City. I want to see what will happen to your soul when I rip your body into pieces and scatter it in different pocket dimensions. Let me see if you can revive even in that kind of state where you are neither dead nor alive." Bronx stated as his purple body started to become a darker violet instead.
