Chapter 477 - 462: Nightmare
As the two became lost in the kiss, they seemed to be in each other protective cocoons; their faces flushed red as their kiss grew hot, passion was ignited as their hands started roaming on each other bodies, things were about to escalate when an explosion in the distance awakened, smashing apart that passion.
Boom!
Alex frowned; he could sense an ominous feeling and a shadow coming toward them at extreme speed, holding Sakuya by the waist. He was ready to intervene when his eyes widened at the unexpected situation.
That shadow that was coming toward them stopped, and instead, an ominous black spear through the night sky appeared before them.
It was too close for Alex to dodge it or deflect it using his gun, he immediately used Time Acceleration, and he slashed upward using Reaper, his silver knife; the knife sliced through the air, its speed increased when a green light came from Sakuya's hand surrounded it.
Swoosh! Kin!! Kaboom!
The black spear was deflected to the side; even so, a giant explosion swallowed Alex and Sakuya; their fate was unknown.
The shadow who had stopped moved forward.
°°°°°°
Let's rewind time a bit.
After Lilith departed, she entered her tent and directly went to sleep, then it happened. She had a nightmare; no, it was like a memory of the past.
In a world shrouded entirely in darkness.
Several rays of coalesced radiance erupted, aiming at the enemy from all directions; the enemy was like an endless black lotus that tried to swallow the world, looking closely different types of monsters could be seen: Goblin of all colors: Green, Dark and Red; Orcs, Wolves, Ogres, kobold and so on.
Lilith's wielded her twin swords, expanding her black wings and emanating the matchless, dazzling brilliance of the sun that enveloped her like a circular, protective screen. The fallen angel held the swords high, releasing two golden blade rays that flitted across the air alongside blustering winds, and headed straight into the dark clouds where something seemed to be concealed. Upon hitting the dense cloud layer, it shrunk as though it were pricked by needles before rolling away and letting out roaring thunder in its retreat. Meanwhile, it erupted purple lightning bolts that struck Lilith's defensive shield. However, the purple lightnings were deflected quickly, and at the same time, Lilith extended and swung her arm to the side with a sword in hand.
Along with this movement, the horizon had as though been split in half. The formidable strength of the moon that momentarily appeared behind her coalesced into an indestructible blade ray that swept across the entire sky into the thick layer of cloud. This attack was so powerful that the massive cloud almost split open in two. The crack in its middle was forcibly pulled apart by the external forces. Whistling blade airflows penetrated the opening and ripped apart the tumbling cloud. At a glance, there was now an obvious crack on its surface.
"———!"
A loud roar like a raging billow echoed in the clouds. Just the soundwaves alone were enough to shake the land. The clouds shrunk once again, merging into an enormous tornado from the dragon-shaped head. Tremendous cold winds rose from the ground and formed a strong, sturdy barrier.
Then its whole body appeared; it was so huge that one would have trouble looking at its full length. Darker scales blacker than the night itself, eyes that look down on the world as if it was nothing.
Lilith's eyes turned resolute as she joined together her two swords to form a huge scythe of twenty meters in length.
''!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
That thing roared, the world shook, Lilith shielded her body with her giant scythe. Then the giant beast claw tore through the air with no resistance, suddenly, a vine pierced through the air and wrapped around the monster's claw, momentarily stopping it; however, it was soon proved to be futile, just a slight move and that thick vine broke apart like a fragile piece of glass.
A gigantic lightning spear tore through the dark sky and tried to strike the giant beast back; however, it was stopped by a black shield.
Lilith bit her lips; she knew her friends, her comrades, were trying to buy her some time until she activated her ultimate skill; she poured mana into the giant scythe until it shined dark.
[S-]
Even before she could unleash her ultimate ability, she was forced to stop, she coughed blood, and with a befuddled expression, she stared at her chest, a spear had pierced through it, and she knew to whom this spear belonged, it was because she was surprised.
Suddenly, the black dragon claw tore through space and slammed her toward the ground; her body flew toward the ground like a fallen meteor.
Kaboom!
Before Lilith's consciousness blackened, she saw her friends getting killed and the black dragon grinning with that traitor standing next to it; then her inner self told her, 'Be wary of others; you can only trust yourself.'
Bang!
Lilith woke up and started panting; her breathing was ragged, she couldn't believe that she had this dream again, it seemed to get worse since she entered this dungeon, a strange dream where someone that looked like her fought until she lost because she was betrayed.
The current Lilith couldn't completely understand what this is about as this dream, no for her it's a nightmare was incomplete, she couldn't see the face of her so-called friends, nor she knows the identity of the betrayer, the only thing she could remember was that this person uses a spear, nothing else.
''Sigh! I guess it is to warn me not to trust anyone; however, you can't live like that when alone the burden is too much to carry, and the loneliness is even more. I believe in my new comrades, Alex will not betray me, neither will the-"
Lilith suddenly stopped talking and clutched her chest, and started rolling on the ground.
''Ugh!"
A dark mist appeared around her body like a cocoon, and her eyes lost focus like a machine that had shut down; then, she stood up again.
