Chapter 306 - Invasion Of The Library (3)
The scythe and the two swords clashed against each other and everything vanished.
The mist swept away and the forest turned to shreds. The fairy king and queen and the king quickly recalled their respective spears as they feared that they would break.
The three of them then exchanged a glance before looking a Glindhor. They held their hands together and suddenly vanished. Glindhor blinked in surprise as he was left alone.
"Wow, the spider queen also escaped and these two also vanished. Now I am left alone in the middle of a two man war." He muttered slowly as he stared at below.
But in reality, Glindhor wasn't worried. After all, he was strong enough to stay alive while watching the battle firsthand.
It would tell him a lot about Death and his fighting style and would ultimately lead to him taking his scythe.
So for now, Glindhor's only task was to make sure that he paid complete attention to the battle.
"That should have cut you and your scythe in half." Kira narrowed his eyes since neither Azrael nor his scythe had received a single scratch or dent of any kind.
His attack might as well have never hit it.
"Well, thinking one hit killing? Sorry dude, you picked the wrong opponent to do that." Azrael replied as he raised his scythe and brought it down on the swords.
Kira's eyes widened as he felt the weight of the scythe pushing him backward. His strength suddenly started leaving his body as though someone was sucking it out.
"Though my scythe was specifically designed to hold willing souls, I had to modify it later because many people were not ready to leave their home and family behind," Azrael grinned while pushing his scythe further down. "If I can't suck your soul, I can suck the souls trapped in your swords."
'Fuck!' Kira cursed as he dropped the swords on the ground and jumped back.
They automatically appeared in his hands as he glared at Azrael.
"That's where underestimating your opponents will take." Azrael finished as he smiled.
"And you shouldn't underestimate me either." Kira raised both of his swords towards his stomach.
And suddenly pushed them inside his stomach.
"What the…" Even Azrael was left confused by this move.
Perhaps Kira had figured out that he couldn't beat Azrael so he just decided to end his life.
After all, Azrael couldn't blame him. Many people couldn't handle meeting him and decided to just die. Well, most of those people were already dead so it didn't matter.
"So he is using that form huh." Glindhor muttered with a smile. He had already asked Kira what he would do if Azrael ever cornered him.
"I would just use the power of all the souls present inside these swords. They would be enough to make me grow in strength as well as become powerful."
Now that Kira had seen how powerful; Azrael was, he was gonna give it all. And he was excited to use it.
'The number is even bigger than I thought.' Azrael's eyes widened when he saw millions of souls entering Kira's body.
Yet the swords still held many millions of souls. This made him wonder how many souls had Kira sucked inside his sword in his entire lifetime.
'Well, I can think about that after defeating him.' Azrael shook his head and looked away from the souls as he turned his gaze towards Kira's face.
It looked as though he was in immense pain which is true since holding so many souls inside one body was technically impossible. Even Azrael didn't know how Kira was able to handle so many souls.
'Well, some things are supposed to remain a mystery.' He then sighed and waited for Kira to fully complete whatever he was doing.
He was not gonna use any of his moves was a chance that they would be converted to energy by Kira. So instead he was waiting for him to finish his transformation and then he would attack him.
After all, making someone a powerful as Kira even more powerful was not a good thing. But one thing that he now noticed was the amount of power the souls were holding.
The souls only held about 10% of their original energy and it had taken almost 50 million of such souls to push Kira up to the soul immortality realm.
But now that he was in the soul immortality realm, the number of souls going inside his body slowly started to decrease. It looked as though the swords were running out of souls to supply Kira.
His expression slowly started to turn to normal. It looked as though he was disappointed by the fact that his cultivation wouldn't rise anymore.
But he still had a small smile on his face as though he had achieved something great.
"Now that I am only a single realm behind you, I can try to defeat with all my power." He said as Azrael smiled.
"You don't know how much of a difference in power of a person in the soul immortality realm and the golden immortality realm?" He asked and held his scythe with both of his hands. "Let me shatter your knowledge."
He struck the ground with the blade of his scythe as the entire place went dead silent. And by dead silent, Azrael meant the sense in which one's heartbeat would echo around the entire room.
'Everything is gone…' Glindhor's expression turned to one of terror.
The entire arena, including Kira and his swords, had vanished. He and Azrael were both hovering in space. He took a sharp intake of breath as Azrael turned to stare at him.
"Do you know why I didn't kill you?" He asked as Glindhor didn't dare to open his mouth.
"It was because you are a valuable piece of information. And one must grab all the information they can." He suddenly appeared in front of Glindhor as the dwarf's body froze.
"Come little dwarf.. Let me show how death is sometimes a mercy while life is cruel."
