Chapter 556 - Death Of An Overlord III
“It actually ate its own shadow! Ah!” Levin Cloud stated as he finished healing all the overlords.
“Even I got shocked when it did that. To think that it would eat something that is a part of it. Also, why did you just scream?” Adrian stated as he appeared beside Levin Cloud using his Blink skill.
“I told you to not suddenly appear before me like that. I almost got a heart attack.” Levin Cloud stated as he continued to heal the ones in battle against the world boss. Saena also healed those that she can heal because only the two of them are the healers in the group. 𝘪𝑎.
“I think that we need to transform to join in on the battle because we look like ants compared to the overlords.” Adrian stated as he knew that Levin Cloud also has a transformation skill like he does.
“We only got ten minutes left for the tree of life and death. Might as well use it now.” Levin Cloud stated as he agreed.
“Netheros True Form!” Adrian stated. 𝘪.𝑐ℴ𝘮

The nether mist started to converge towards Adrian while his soulbounds started to get sealed once more. Roots from underground started to crawl towards Levin Cloud and warp around him. The intense energies that are being released while the two of them are transforming is felt by Fenris.
Fenris immediately noticed the two individuals that are accumulating huge amounts of death and life energy. He felt insane fear from the energy that the two best friends are releasing but also felt greedy. He thought that by eating the two then he might finally ascend as they are bursting with life and death energy.
The Grand Toad saw this and conjured a mud dome that covered the two best friends, but Fenris did not care. With one swipe, the mud wall dried up as if it lost moisture from the attack. The Storm Vulture assisted by crashing her body against the world boss, but she got attacked in return as the power of Fenris is at its peak right now.
The Grand Toad only had one choice and he had to elongate his tongue. The tongue of the Grand Toad stretched and caught the claw of the world boss. The fierce tug of war started to happen against two gigantic creatures.
Fenris wanted to cut the tongue of the Grand Toad with his other claw, but he got attacked by two undead. The world boss looked at the two undead and used its remaining claw to pulverize the two undead. Don Quixote got reduced to dust while Robin Hood managed to evade the attack, but the shockwave sent it flying.
“I cannot believe that my debuffs are not affecting it.” Creepysoo stated.
Fenris then covered its body in flames which burned the tongue of the Grand Toad. The world boss could have done that earlier, but he is conserving his mana as he needs it to convert what he eats into power. As Fenris is about to swipe his claw against the growing mist and viny spear, the Sacred Snake materialized and tanked the hit that is supposed to come for Adrian and Levin Cloud.
Fenris easily broke the scales of the Sacred Snake as her last health dropped to zero. The Sacred Snake did not look sad though as she knew that she used her life effectively. She used the last skill that she can in order to turn the tides for the last time.
“Crystal Particles!” The Sacred Snake stated.
The skill of the Sacred Snake called Crystal Particles is the skill that she used when she is usually low in health. This is her final resort when it comes to battle that she used against Fenris when he ran away and what made him fear her.
The Sacred Snake’s white scales became small particles of light that hardened and launched itself towards the world boss. Fenris realized this attack and immediately backed down as it jumped backwards in order to dodge the attack. Some scales still managed to land on his body that lodged on his fur.
Fenris squealed in pain as the scales have a cleansing holy power that deals greater damage to those evil miasmas. Fenris’ eyes became red as the darkness inside its body started to swallow the other elements that it absorbed. The world boss’ body started to get clad in armor made of pure darkness attribute that even swallow the light.
[The Southern Overlord, the Sacred Snake, has been finally laid to rest.]
[The southern territory of the Wilde will have no overlord for the time being. The birth of the next overlord will come near.]
[The Wilde is wailing in grievance for the death of the Southern Overlord.]
[All player party members will have their health and mana restored to full due to the power of The Wilde.]
The Sacred Snake saw this, but she has a smile on her face before she became particles of light as her death came for her. The Grand Toad and the Storm Vulture saw this and became enraged as the southern overlord died by the hands of the Wolf of Disaster. They would not have been that mad if the world boss is not trying to actually eat the soul of the Sacred Snake.
It is then the Lunari Fenrir tried to stop the world boss, but her time is finally up. She used all the strength that she could muster to try and pin the world boss down to the ground with her shadows before finally disappearing. This bought more time, but Fenris still managed to see the floating soul of the Sacred Snake.
Fenris eyed the soul of the Southern Overlord in order to strengthen himself from the damage that he has taken. He is now just below 25% health due to the numerous attacks that came towards him. The world boss used its unique ocular skill in order to locate the soul of the Sacred Snake.
When Fenris found the soul, he tried biting it down but a giant hand from the nether mist grabbed the Sacred Snake’s soul. The hand that reached out is a bit different from before as it was a mixture of both demonic and draconic. Adrian used his Netheros True form while he is still fused with Kanlaon.
Adrian’s form is now different from normal as his face looked like he is wearing a dragon helm with six horns that adorned his head like a crown. The nether mist that covered his body also has a red and blue tinge on them while the scythe changed in form as well.
Adrian can only be described as a mixture of a dragon and a demon in wraith form as he has no legs as he is floating using the nether mist itself. He would be something called the harbinger of death of the dragons as he looked like the Grim Reaper of Dragons since his scythe is now adorned with the Kanlaon’s head with the blade coming out from its mouth.
Levin Cloud is equally powerful as a burst of life energy could be felt upon turning into his Elder Leshy form. The surroundings became filled with grass or flowers as long as he stood on the ground. His form could actually change the state of the domain just by being present. The tree of life and death resonated with his form as it also boosted his fire resistance due to the unique nature of Yewdrassil.
Levin Cloud looked like what others called a forest god as he had the head of a deer’s skeleton head with eyes that glowed in a blue light. He looked like he had a mane because the bushes that covered his chest to the head is in great volume.
Levin Cloud’s whole body is so lanky and thin because it is made of only vines and roots that are both lush and dried up. His five fingers became three and his humanoid feet just looked like tree stomps. There are also two types of wisps that revolved around his body that is black and green.
Levin Cloud looked like the incarnation of a forest god from his new form. The others who have yet to saw his new form got shocked since they thought only Adrian has receded his humanity but now even Levin Cloud has become monstrous himself.
Adrian grasped the soul of the Sacred Snake and looked at it tenderly. He then led the soul of the Sacred Snake towards the tree of life and death. He gently placed the soul of the Sacred Snake on the tree of life and death which Yewdrassil received with great care.
Yewdrassil immediately sent the soul of the Sacred Snake to Paraiso instead of Limbo as she died with valor and heart. Yewdrassil emitted a golden beam as everyone saw the soul of the Sacred Snake ascend to the divine realm of the twin gods.
