Chapter 239


    Lucky 239


    The Aberrants were destroying the ind, their eyes were on the pitiful citizens. They attacked the weak and tear their flesh, eating them deliciously.


    Furthermore, these monsters were using blunt weapons such as wooden spears. They appeared to be like an ancient army, but the fear they spread was enough.


    "H- help me!!!"


    The screaming was all around. Everyone was afraid, especially when a ginormous creature was soaring over the ind and shooting fire. The Bakunawa was destroying the ind slowly.


    In the middle of the sea, an ind of fire was getting created. The ind was getting covered by me and no one could escape it.


    Calix and the others were caught by the crisis. They were fighting rabid Aberrants that were attacking them.


    Together with the suffocating pressure that wasing from the Demon-God, the three persevered and fought valiantly.


    They were close to their limits and they understood that they would faint at any moment. However, they knew that losing their consciousness would bring them nothing but death.


    They would die if they don''t fight.


    They had to leave this ce, but they could not.


    The ind was already over, it was going to sink and it was impossible to save it.


    "We have to find Yuna!!"


    The only answer to their problem was Yuna Garcia. She could create portals to escape this ind.


    "Calix! I don''t know how your power works but is it possible to save this ind? Our country took a decade to build this ind, it''s a waste if this sink! This ind houses millions of people, and all of them will die if we don''t do something."


    Marianne exined. Her face was already haggard and pale. She nced at her ice leg, it was obvious that she lost a great amount of blood.


    "I will try!!"


    Calix gritted his teeth as he killed a monster.


    His weapon transformed into a Thunder 50 BMG and pointed it at the ground. Using his remaining power, he gathered the azure energy in his body and passed it into the bullet.


    He started coughing blood. It seemed that he was pushing himself to the limit. But he didn''t stop. Instead, he gathered enough energy and pulled the trigger.


    A powerful gunshot reverted, prating the ground.


    "Guah--!"


    Calix lost his strength and kneeled to the ground. He began coughing blood nonstop. This was the first time he exceeded his limit. His vision was getting blurry.


    "Calix!"


    Suddenly, the shaking of the ground stopped. Even the Aberrants were confused as if the earthquake was nothing but an illusion.


    .........


    ......


    ...


    {Huh? Why did half of the ind stop sinking?}


    The Bakunawa was shocked as it nced at the ce. The Demon-God made sure that the ind was cut in half and destroyed its foundation beneath.


    It confirmed that the ind was sinking. However, when he looked at it again, he found that half of it was floating still.


    "Hey, don''t look at the other while fighting me. It''s disrespectful!"


    {Graahhh!!}


    Esmeralda used her ability and darkness began strangling the Bakunawa.


    She could feel that something was happening on the ind. She did not know what was it but she could see that it was a good thing for them. So she decided to confront the Demon-God to prevent it from destroying the ind.


    Her body was in tatters, she had wounds all around. She admitted that the current circumstances were a disadvantage for her.


    The darkness was not enough to fight the Bakunawa and she was slowly losing the battle. The only thing she could do was to keep the monster and wait for reinforcement.


    "Well, at this moment, I''m not sure if they have the spare military strength to send reinforcement."


    It looked like on the other side of the country, a war was happening too. The country was getting attacked by both sides.


    "... I wonder if the Obice can withstand it."


    So far, she could not see any flying-type Aberrants. She understood that it would be devastating if the flying-type Aberrants attacked them.


    Blood Moon, the moment when monsters evolved and attacked humanity.


    {You foolish woman! Your species is already dead! You should follow them!}


    "What do you know about me to say that, huh?"


    Esmeralda grinned and created ck spikes and shoot them. Yet, the Bakunawa received them like nothing, the monster''s scales were tough and impossible to prate.


    "Tch, that''s why I hate the sun."


    {You always hate the sun! You should have died in Junian!}


    The Bakunawa roared and shoot a fire breath. Esmeralda sessfully escaped it.


    "It will not be long till I lose, I need something to turn this thing around. Fortunately, the other half of the ind is still intact. At least the citizens have a safe ce to stay."


    .........


    ......


    ...


    "Calix!"


    Scarlett and Marianne approached him. Half of the ind was safe but Calix was not.


    Marianne created an ice barrier to protect them from the monsters. The three hide inside.


    "I''m sorry, I should not have pushed you to do it!"


    "No, it''s fine."


    Calix wiped his blood.


    "Besides, while I''m still awake, I need you to help me."


    "Calix you are already weak."


    "Listen to me, this is about the Demon-God. I have a way to kill it."


    He looked at the two seriously. He have to do it, or else they were going to die.


    "To be honest, I don''t know if this will work but we don''t have a choice. I have to do it."


    He was determined. That''s what it takes to be a man. As long as he can fight, Calix will do it. Even if he has to sacrifice himself.


    "I..."


    The two women didn''t know what to say but Calix''s determined gaze affected them.
