Chapter 514 Divine Serpent



Crackle, crack!

The black lightning danced around Montgomery’s elderly body like chains around a prisoner.

“I summon the power of the Mythidom!”

Montgomery shouted towards the dark, foggy skies.

At first, nothing happened except the eerie crackling sound of the lightning.

Then, a portion of the fog cleared as if the wind had pushed them aside, and the moon shone brightly down on the docks.

In that moment, in Montgomery’s and Beowulf’s eyes, they saw a massive serpent circling around the moon like a celestial beast.

After it had wrapped its enormous body around the moon, it opened its enormous mouth to show its two fangs with long tongue dangling down in venom.

“Mythidom is the Realm of the Magic!” Montgomery said with fervent power. “It has been said that the first-ever magicians came from Mythidom and populated the entire world with their mystical powers.

“They’re the reason that magic exists in the first place!

“The church thinks they are the real sons and daughters of the Mythidom and that everyone else is greedily trying to use magic that was not meant for them!

“That’s why they treat us as heretics and themselves as holy beings above the common men!”

Beowulf listened to him while looking at the massive serpent coiled around the moon with his glowing purple eyes that had no fear or uncertainty.

Anyone else, after witnessing the reality-bending scene, would’ve fallen to their knees in terror.

If there were indeed creatures like the serpent that were as big as the world itself, how could the human race even survive?

“That snake is the divine protector of the Mythidom!” Montgomery shouted. “Whenever I summon power from the Mythidom, it appears but never does anything. It is simply observing.”

“Observing what?” Beowulf asked.

“I don’t know.” Montgomery laughed and turned to Beowulf. “It doesn’t matter, really. What really matters is this.”

He opened his hand and revealed a bright, golden light emanating from his palm.

It was vastly different from his previous black magic. Now, it looked pure and holy.

The black lightning circling his body started quickly changing colors to gold and white.

“I summoned this new magic from the Mythidom, and that magic is the purest kind.”

Montgomery said proudly and felt every fiber of his body being cleansed of unpurities. His body started leaking some kind of black substance that gathered below his foot.

After the transformation had ended, Montgomery looked vastly different, as if he had become thirty years younger with neat black hair and piercing eyes that had no fatigue of the old man he had been.

His skin smoothed out, wrinkles disappeared entirely, and his back straightened out, and he tossed his walking cane aside, having no need for it anymore.

At the final phase of the tournament, his shoulders turned broad and his muscles rippled out from beneath his skin, revealing his perfect physique that had previously been hidden under his elderly facade.

“This is the reason for my long life.” Montgomery proudly declared. “With Mythidom on my side, I’ll never die!”

Beowulf slightly squinted his eyes and made the purple-petaled flower vanish into thin air.

“My dream is to reach Mythidom one day.”

Montgomery said with desire in his voice and paced back and forth, imagining the beautiful kingdom of the magic in his mind.

He believed it to be the most enchanting place in the world.

Away from the darkness and ugliness of the mortal world.

“That’s why, I think the Divine Protector is here.” Montgomery glanced towards the moon, where the snake was watching. “To choose who is worthy of entering that magic place and who isn’t.”

“You think you’re worthy?” Beowulf asked with a scoff. “If murderers like you can enter that place, I don’t think it is that magical.”

“Quiet, mortal!” Montgomery shouted angrily, with blood vessels bulging around his neck. “Don’t you dare talk about that place with your filthy voice!”

“Oho, you changed your attitude to quiet.” Beowulf laughed. “You think you’re above mortals, now?”

“Of course, I am.” Montgomery spread his arms wide to display his magnificent body. “Mythidom is allowing me to summon power from there. I am no longer constrained by the limitations of mere mortals.

“In this state, my mana pool never depletes!

“I am now God among men!”

Beowulf raised his gaze to the massive serpent and raised his finger to point at the creature without any fear. It was like pointing his finger at the God.

“W-what are you doing?” Montgomery asked in disbelief. “Stop pointing at ‘It’ or you might anger ‘It’!”

“What happens if it does get angry?” Beowulf asked with a chuckle.

“You fool!” Montgomery screamed. “Are you trying to doom the entire world?!”

“Perhaps, perhaps.” Beowulf chuckled.

At that moment, a small light flew out of his fingertip and shot towards the moon with unbelievable speed, creating several sonic booms that echoed throughout the night sky.

“No, you fool!” Montgomery shouted with a baffled expression.

The small beam of light left the safety of the world and entered the cold, lifeless space, but it still shone brightly, allowing every living being in the world to see the light, which looked like a shooting star.

Outside the purple dome that was protecting the docks, several gold-cloaked magicians appeared on top of several buildings, looking at the dome with frowns on their faces.

They were the holy magicians from the great church!

At that moment, one of them shouted with a fervent-sounding voice.

“Brothers and sisters, look into the sky!”

As they raised their gazes, their eyes widened in shock as they saw the massive serpent circling the moon in a hypnotic dance.

Ordinary people and people with weak magic weren’t able to see the massive serpent as it was a pure creature of magic, but those with high magic power were able to!

With fervent, obsessed gazes, they fell down to their knees and started praying towards the Divine Serpent with unwavering devotion and reverence.

They were called to the docks because they felt two incredibly strong individuals fighting.

That’s why more than one holy magician came to end the lives of the two heretics.

In most cases, one holy magician was alone to stop any and all threats, but their Grand Priest could feel the power of the two individuals and knew that it would take more than one to defeat them.

All around the Great City, incredibly powerful magicians gathered on the rooftops and bowed towards the Divine Serpent with respect and humility, as if they were looking at the embodiment of magic itself.

In the yard of the great church, hundreds of holy magicians gathered and started prostrating in the presence of the magnificent creature.

“What a beautiful, magnificent being.” The Grand Priest fervently said with tears rolling down his cheeks as he kneeled on the ground in happiness.

He never bowed to anyone, as he was at the apex of the power hierarchy. There weren’t many who could stand in his presence without feeling an overwhelming sense of awe and reverence.

It had been over fifty years since he had been injured in a fight and over seventy years since he had lost in a fight.

In the current day and age, it wasn’t farfetched to say that he was the strongest magician alive!

As the warm tears rolled down his cheek, at that moment, a bright light approached the moon and crashed straight into the Divine Serpent.

Boom…

A faint, almost inaudible sound reverberated from the collision.

Everyone watched in shock as the Divine Serpent started angrily thrashing in pain and accidentally smashed its enormous tail through the moon, splitting it in half!

“D-Divine Serpent…” The Grand Priest whispered in shock and angrily gritted his teeth.

“WHO THE FUCK ATTACKED THE DIVINE SERPENT?!”

“Nooo!” Montgomery screamed in utter despair and helplessness, falling to his knees and watching the moon break apart in the night sky.

Beowulf lowered his arm and looked at him, his purple eyes behind the mask still looking eerily calm as if he didn’t just attack a godly being, which was the greatest sin of all.

“Do you realize what you’ve done?!” Montgomery turned around to scream at him. “Why the fuck did you do that?! Do you want to kill us all?!”

“I wonder how much strength would rise if I killed the Divine Serpent.” Beowulf said with a chuckle, and at that moment, he pointed his finger towards the broken moon and began firing more magic missiles from the tip of his finger.

“Stop it!” Montgomery jumped to his feet and threw a bolt of golden lightning at Beowulf.

Beowulf turned to the golden lightning, grabbed it with his bare hand, and after spinning several times, he hurled it towards the sky with ten times the power.

Alongside the magic missiles, the golden lightning also started flying towards the angry-sounding Divine Serpent!

With speed that went way above the speed of the light, the attacks landed on the Divine Serpent’s scales and caused some cracks before exploding into a bright display of light.

This time, even ordinary people would be able to see the light, even though the Divine Serpent was still invincible to them.

Alongside the bright light, they started noticing that their glorious moon, which had been with them since the dawn of time, was cracking and falling apart!
