Chapter 142: City on Fire (2)
Double chapter today :p
...
*BOOOOOMMMMM!!!*
The giant explosion shook Diadel City. At the same time, hundreds of houses around the city lit up on fire.
The next second, the entire city was shrouded by a giant magic circle.
"Hahahahahahaha! It''s toote, saintess! It has already started!" Bernardughed uproariously. "Even if you try to stop it now, it''s already toote!"
Charise frowned. She did not like what she was seeing.
" I don''t understand, don''t you know how dangerous the Blight is? Millions of people will die if this goes out of control!"
Bernard smirked. " There are things I can only get by using it, Saintess. That is the only reason Unfortunately, it looks like fate was not on my side."
"Tell me who else is cooperating with you," Charise ordered. "If you do that, perhaps I can find a way to make your time in prison easier."
"Prison?" Bernard shook his head. "No, I''m not going to go to prison."
Then, his body lit up.
Instantly, a powerful strength filled his body. It was as though the magic circle shrouding the city was empowering him.
"It''s it! hahahahaha! It''s true poweh?"
Suddenly, Bernard felt a floating sensation.
Looking back, he saw his body falling to the ground, headless.
''Damn it...''
Then, his head fell to the ground.
That was the end of one of the greatest merchants of Diadel City.
Kallevang put his greatsword back on his back after killing Bernard.
"Sorry, Saintess, but I thought it seemed dangerous."
Charise shook her head. "It''s alright. Instead, there is something more important we need to take care of."
Kallevang nodded and looked at the direction of the city. Fire and smoke had be the owners of the night, and Kallevang and Charise could smell the iron-like smell of blood.
Diadel City had turned into hell.
Bloed and the girls jumped onto the roof of the ce they were staying. Once there, they managed to get a glimpse of the situation in the city.
Fire and smoke filled the streets, with people running away and other people chasing after them. Sometimes, someone would use a sharp weapon to behead or kill a citizen mercilessly, clearly enjoying it.
In just a few minutes, Diadel City had be into a ughtering ground, with hundreds of innocents dying each second.
Bloed''s expression turned ice-cold. With a thought of his, his eyes focused on the people causing this evil.
And just after a few seconds, he managed to identify them.
In their arms, legs, or chest, they had a symbol of a wolf tearing apart a body.
" The church of ughter." Bloed said.
The girls nodded.
"Has it already started?" Regina asked bewildered.
Liu Ying nodded. "I think so. I never expected they would act so soon"
"Master, what is the n?"
Bloed thought for a moment before opening his mouth.
"For now, let''s meet with Javelin and the others before deciding what to do next."
The girls agreed to his words. Quickly, the trio prepared their weapons and armors for theing fight.
And that fight came much sooner than the group expected.
When the group of three was about to leave the house, the door was kicked open.
*Bam!*
"Hahahaha, look what we have here It looks like nobody has visited this ce yet." A manughed maliciously and licked his lips. Behind him, Bloed could see tens of other people.
That man scanned the house with squinted eyes. And when he saw Bloed and the girls, his eyes brightened.
"Hehehe, we have beauties, and they are just my type. Good, it has been a long time since thest time I enjoyed a good woman!"
Behind him, the other men alsoughed and squinted their eyessciviously. It was obvious they did not take the group of three seriously.
Liu Ying and Regina frowned, but it was Bloed who spoke first.
"We are short on time. Do it quickly."
Hearing that, Liu Ying smiled excitedly.
"On it~"
As soon as her words sounded, Liu Ying kicked the ground!
Then
*BOOOMMM!!!* A powerful shockwave shook the house and the man that kicked the door just now was blown apart by Liu Ying''s punch.
Before the others could react, a metallic wave surged from behind Liu Ying, engulfing the remaining enemies and restraining their movements.
At the same time, Bloed and Regina made their moves.
Bullets and des of energy shed in the darkness of the night, leaving behind screams of pain and death.
In seconds, the entrance of the house had turned into a river of flesh and blood.
Liu Ying wiped off a drop of blood that fell on her face and shook her head.
" What a mess."
Regina snorted. "Try to be less savage next time. Most of this disaster was caused by you. Can you not use a more elegant fighting style? Just like me."
Liu Ying shrugged. What could she do? Punches and kicks were in her blood.
Besides, she was never very good at using swords.
Bloed shook his head exasperatedly. "Stop quarreling like children and hurry up. Leto, take us to Animal Paradise!"
*Woof!*
When Bloed, Regina, and Liu Ying climbed on the back of the metallic wolf, Leto let out a soft roar and kicked the ground.
Then, its body elerated through the streets of Diadel City.
In another part of the city.
Sebastian shook off the blood on his sword and looked at the corpses in the courtyard of the ce he was staying.
Behind him, the two hooded people finished killing their enemies.
" What is happening?" One of the hooded people looked at the city in shock. The screams of pain, terror, and despair surprised him.
Sebastian frowned. "It looks like Diadel City is less peaceful than we expected."
" Damn, so much blood. And these men Are they from the church of ughter?" Asked the other hooded person.
"These madmen. I wonder what are they nning this time."
"It looks like something big."
When Sebastian heard the conversation of the two hooded people, his expression turned very serious.
After a few seconds, he came to a decision.
"Change of ns, we will move tonight."
"Huh? Mr. Sebastian?"
" It would be bad if something happens to that boy."
