Chapter 259 When Alvine Underestimates The Cruelty Of His Subordinates. 2
As soon as he touched Luna’s forehead, Alvine was overwhelmed by endless darkness before his visual field gradually cleared up.
“Your mission is straightforward; take this orb with you and gather as much raw energy as you can with the help of Greed, who will activate it thanks to my universal law.” Alvine found himself in front of himself as he gave orders while extending the orb to Luna, who was with Greed and the Scythe soldier.
“Raw energy is everywhere in the universe. And since the blood ring has absorbed almost all of my energy, I am currently unable to cultivate faster to reach the divine rank.” He continued with his briefing before sending them on a mission.
Luna and the others remained silent to listen to him attentively throughout his briefing.
“Once the mission is complete, come back as soon as possible.” He ended his briefing with these words.
“At your command, my lord.” Luna and Greed responded to unite.
“Sigh, if only I could have a divine energy that is 100% pure, then I could instantly trigger celestial tribulations after absorbing it. In short, let’s just hope that they manage to collect enough energy to fill this orb at least fifty percent.” He then murmured for himself.
At that very moment, even if he had not noticed at the time, his three subordinates looked at themselves after hearing his wish.
(Hm? Why do I feel that this is where the misunderstanding has set in?) He wondered while being in Luna’s body.
After that, Luna and the other two instantly vanished in front of Alvine. But as he watched Luna’s memories while in Luna’s body, he also found himself in space with the other two soldiers with him after their teleportation.
“You have all heard the wish of our lord, haven’t you? We are his shadow; we exist solely to satisfy the least of his desires, as insignificant as it may seem.” Luna was the first to speak in a blank tone while contemplating the cosmos that seemed endless.
“I fully agree with you, Luna. We exist to satisfy our lord’s wishes. And since he wants to reach the divine rank as soon as possible, the best solution is to find adequate energy to help him achieve his goal without problems. That is why I propose that instead of activating the orb here, we must annihilate some insignificant planets that will serve as a sacrifice for our lord.” As usual, Greed honored his name by proposing this mad idea to Luna.
The latter has not yet agreed; she has started to think seriously about Greed’s proposal.
But by possessing her body, Alvine could also hear her thoughts, which are part of Luna’s memories.
‘Will the lord appreciate if we sacrifice billions of insects to fulfill his wish? But to find a large amount of divine energy of adequate quality in so little time, we have no choice but to proceed as Greed had just said.’ These were her thoughts after hearing Greed’s proposal.
(As I expected, Greed understood everything wrong. Sigh, It’s because of this stupid side that he has that I had nothing but to let Luna accompany him. But how could I guess he will sow confusion in Luna’s head to mislead him?!) While Alvine had his thoughts, Luna had already changed her plans by adopting Greed’s proposal.
“Well, so do what you have to do, Greed. If everything goes as planned, I will maintain my role as a spectator.”
Seeing Luna give him the green light, Greed nodded with a sinister smile
[Xada dagalaxe wugbi!!]
At the same time, his bloody red pupils shone with a crimson red glow as he waved his black stick while casting his spell in an unknown language for Alvine.
Gradually, five great portals appeared in front of them in which Alvine could see, through Luna’s eyes, an Arctic white planet, an Amazonian green planet, volcanic red, and two other blue planets that were the smallest and had the same size or a little smaller than Fraydja planet.
As Luna did not take long to observe the natives of the five respective planets, Alvine could not see all the different types of races that ruled on these different planets. But one thing was sure for him was that each of the five planets housed billions of lives, including frost beasts, ice elvesโ kingdoms, flame and blood demons, and even entire human civilizations and other divine creatures intermediate and below.
“Greed, you are not entitled to chess, do not let any of them escape. All these souls are drugs to help our brothers in arms evolve. If all goes well, we will even be able to evolve to the next rank.” As soon as Greed had finished creating the respective five portals whose sizes were disproportionate, Luna gave him this warning in a cold tone.
“Kukuk! Please pass me this orb.” In place of a no or a yes, Greed looked inside the portals while reaching out to Luna to recover the orb.
At the same time, a cruel smile emerges on Luna’s lips as she gives the black orb the size of an adult fist to Greed.
Following that, she looked at the third shadow soldier, who had two long scythes on his back. “In the end, I changed my mind. Your role is to protect Greed throughout his work against the preys who will pass my guard. As for you, Greed, make sure to finish the task as quickly as possible; in the meantime, I will take care of the preys already crossed the portals.” Luna listed everyone’s task as her silhouette gradually became invisible to take care of those who came to welcome them.
On Greed’s side, as soon as he held the orb in his right hand, he put it on his stick which automatically merged with the latter before he began to cast his zone spell. At the same time, the scythe soldier advanced some hundred meters to interpose between him and the portals in front of them.
“Gakou ni kanuit?!” The first to come to them was a demon with long inflamed vermilion hair, two long cattle fangs, and a dark black body with well-beaten muscles that measured about 230cm~. But the most impressive thing was that he was an intermediate divine mage.
While speaking in an unknown language while frowning with a pure golden aura emanating from his body, Luna instantly appeared behind him with her two black daggers covered in gehenna flames!
“!”
But when he felt that Luna was behind him, he noticed, at the same time, two daggers behind his scissor-shaped neck.
“Gl-Glyby…!!
Before he finishes his sentence, Luna instantly decapitates him, splashing his blue blood.
“I don’t have time to listen to your unnecessary complaints!” She replied coldly without blinking.
But before the body of the demon of the mist falls in free fall, All the blue blood condenses in front of Luna in the form of a sphere.
“Well, to the next one.” She sounded, becoming invisible once again. All the others could see was the blue sphere heading towards Luna’s next prey, which was a human with a set of primitive armor with beast bones.
But the latter, who had messy hair, and resembled a prehistoric person, did not let the sphere reach him; he instantly manifested his divine domain with thousands of rock peaks that immediately rushed them toward the blue sphere.
But what he had not noticed was Luna had never been with the sphere but was somewhat above him with her two black daggers still covered with dark flames!
Apart from Luna, who did almost all the work, Greed, for his part, had nearly finished casting his zone spells. But the newcomers did not let him do it as he wanted.
A squad of imps, who had among them, an imp with a crown and a set of red armor of divine rank, channeled all the magical energy he received from his imperial squad and manifested the largest divine domain that covered more than hundreds of kilometers, including Greed and the scythe soldier.
[Dryk!!]
Following the tone of his voice, all those who were inside his divine domain found themselves deprived of their five senses except him and his squad.๐๐ฃ๐xt.๐๐๐
‘Tsk, what a useless idiot. At least, the task will be less painful with his divine domain from now on.’ Luna, always in her invisibility, laughs inside by retorting these words only Alvine can hear.
(Sigh, I now understand how they had easily committed such massacres. By connecting five planets through portals, they created significant confusion among the natives of these planets. And since everyone was confused and did not know who the enemy was, in addition to the language barrier between them, it was foreseeable that the situation would turn into a fiasco after seeing the first Person die in the hands of Luna; none of them know her camp. And now, everyone wants to be the last survivor in this war between five planets. Sigh, if only they could see the real danger, they would never leave Greed in peace!)
In barely a second, the battlefield suddenly became noisy with dying cries accompanied by endless despair, following the appearance of hundreds of black dragons who shred all forms of lives on their paths.
Even if the hundreds of dragons were, in reality, only members of the imps’ imperial squad, but with their sealed five senses, no one among the others could get rid of the effects of his illusory magic, which was the very essence of his divine domain.
But this was not the case for Alvine’s subordinates, who spent all their lives on a higher-ranking planet. But what made Alvine’s subordinates more threatening in total darkness was their unique skills to merge with dark places, as when they crossed Alvineโs shadow to enter the dimension. Previously, they were one with darkness, and their senses will become sharper by being in this element!
By taking advantage of this gift, Luna’s skills have only become more frightening, as she is entirely in her element now. Her speed and efficiency had nothing to do with the one before!
In addition to her, the scythe soldier, who had not yet started the battle, faced his first prey, none other than one of the imps in the form of a ten-meter dragon who growled towards him by opening his bestial mouth to devour him at once!
-GRRRRRAAAA!!
But no matter the threat and the suffocating aura that compressed him, he did not flinch until his prey was within reach of his weapon.
When the dragon was a hundred meters away from him, he grabbed one of his scythes, splashing his desolate and bloodthirsty aura, and then,
-Slice!!
He instantly teleported above the dragon and slashed it into two separate parts before he could react in time to escape.
“Kukuk, all your resistance is futile, but stay yourselves; Your sacrifices will not be in vain.” At the same time, Greed’s arrogant and demonic voice, amplified by his magic, resounded in all the chaos.
Immediately flat calm settles in the middle of the chaos, followed by a gusting storm as the black orb on his stick begins to float above his stick before stopping fifty meters above his head.
(Tsk, I don’t know where he got such disproportionate arrogance!)
“Your miserable possessions, your childrens, your families, your kingdoms, even your planets are now only the possession of my lord! By the authority and powers entrusted to me by my lord, I invoke… [THE VOID REALM]!”
