Chapter 597: 597:The Battle Between Powerhouse
"The hell is this?" Ethan muttered while staring upward, and even his throat felt dry as the gigantic blurry figure continued looming above the capital like a living nightmare.
His fingers slowly tightened around the balcony railing while a cold wind swept through the city beneath them, and the pressure hanging in the air felt so heavy that even breathing became difficult.
The entire sky seemed distorted.
Even the sunlight looked dim.
Then suddenly...
The giant silhouette moved.
SWOOOSH!
The massive blurry figure slowly rose higher into the heavens, and within moments the gigantic outline disappeared from above the Imperial Capital completely.
The crushing pressure lessened slightly.
But the atmosphere did not calm down at all.
Instead...
The entire capital erupted into chaos.
Large groups of guards and soldiers immediately rushed through the streets while loud warning horns echoed one after another across the city.
BWOOOOOM! BWOOOOOM!
Elite knights rapidly lined up around important areas while magical formations across the capital began glowing brighter than before, and layers of barriers slowly rose around the Imperial Palace.
Experts continuously shot across the skies like streaks of light.
The atmosphere became extremely tense.
Ethan narrowed his eyes while watching everything unfold below him.
"Something bad is going to happen," he muttered with a grim expression.
Beside him, Rathlos still looked pale while staring blankly at the sky where the giant figure had disappeared.
Even his lips trembled slightly.
"Ethan... that’s... that..." Rathlos stuttered while trying to force the words out properly.
Ethan immediately turned toward him.
"That’s what?" he asked seriously.
Rathlos swallowed hard.
His face looked ugly.
"That’s someone from the Ascension Realm... or above," he finally said.
The moment those words entered Ethan’s ears...
His entire body stiffened.
"Whaaattt did you say?" Ethan almost shouted while staring at Rathlos in disbelief.
Ascension Realm?
Or above?
His scalp immediately went numb.
Even Saint Knights were already terrifying existences capable of destroying cities and armies.
Then what kind of monster existed above that?
Rathlos slowly clenched his fists while forcing himself to calm down.
"I don’t know how someone like that suddenly appeared here," he muttered.
"But that pressure... I can’t mistake it."
Ethan’s expression slowly darkened.
For the first time since entering the capital...
A genuine sense of danger crept into his heart.
....
SWOOOOOSH!
Far away from the Imperial Capital, at the massive border battlefield where the allied armies of the five Empires continuously fought against the combined forces of Demons, Orcs, and Beastmen...
The war still raged violently.
The sky itself looked shattered from constant explosions while endless smoke spread across the battlefield, and the ground had long turned dark red from blood and fire.
BOOOOM!
A massive explosion erupted near the western frontline while hundreds of soldiers were blasted away violently.
"Hold the line!"
"Push them back!"
"Archers! Fire!"
Countless shouts echoed continuously throughout the battlefield.
Huge magical spells exploded across the sky while giant Beastmen charged forward wildly, and Demonic creatures continuously clashed against armored human soldiers without fear of death.
The battlefield looked like hell itself.
Corpses covered the ground.
Broken weapons scattered everywhere.
And every single moment...
More people died.
At the center of the allied army camp, inside a large command tent, several commanders stood around a giant war map while rapidly discussing troop movements.
"We cannot allow the eastern flank to collapse!"
"The Orc reinforcements arrived earlier than expected!"
"Send the reserve troops immediately!"
A middle-aged commander wearing black armor continuously gave orders while his sharp eyes moved across battlefield reports spread over the table.
His face looked exhausted.
Everyone looked exhausted.
This war had dragged on far too long.
Then suddenly...
The commander paused.His brows slowly furrowed.The noisy tent gradually became quieter while he slowly lifted his head.
Something felt wrong.
A strange shadow had suddenly appeared across the map before him.The commander’s expression changed slightly.Without saying anything further, he immediately stepped outside the tent.
SWISH!
A cold wind hit his face instantly.
Then...
His eyes narrowed sharply.
Above the battlefield a massive shadow was slowly spreading across the heavens.
The sunlight dimmed rapidly.The entire battlefield gradually fell into darkness.
Soldiers from both sides instinctively slowed down while looking upward in confusion.
"What the hell?"
"Why did it suddenly get dark?"
Even the Demons and Beastmen paused briefly.
Then someone suddenly screamed loudly.
"LOOK ABOVE!"
Countless heads lifted upward at once.
High above the clouds a blurry humanoid silhouette slowly appeared once again.
This time...
It looked even larger.
Even more terrifying.
The commander’s face immediately turned pale.
His instincts screamed danger.
Extreme danger.
"What... is that thing..." he whispered unconsciously while staring upward blankly.
The battlefield slowly became silent.
Even the explosions gradually decreased while fear quietly spread across everyone.
The blurry giant silhouette slightly lowered its head.And for a brief moment..It felt as if the entire battlefield had been noticed by something incomprehensibly ancient.
Several weaker soldiers immediately collapsed to their knees.
Some started vomiting blood.
Others trembled uncontrollably while fear spread across their faces.Even high-ranking commanders felt cold sweat running down their backs.
Just as everyone was still trying to understand what was happening, another terrifying shadow suddenly began rising from the enemy side of the battlefield.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The earth shook violently.
Far away across the Demon territory, the peaks of several mountains suddenly exploded apart and collapsed into dust as an enormous blurry figure slowly emerged from the horizon.
A gigantic silhouette carried a massive greatsword that dragged across the ground while moving forward, and the sheer weight behind it tore apart the mountain ranges in its path like paper.
Entire cliffs shattered.Deep cracks spread across the land for hundreds of miles.
The sky itself distorted from the pressure.
The allied soldiers stared upward with pale faces while many people unconsciously stepped backward in fear.
"What the fuck is that..."
"That thing... flattened the mountains..."
"Is this even real?"
Even commanders and high-ranking experts felt coldness spreading through their bodies.The blurry figure from the Demon side slowly lifted its giant sword.
At the same time...
The massive silhouette above the allied army side also moved.
BANGGGGG!
The world shook violently.
A terrifying clash exploded across the heavens while a deafening sound echoed through the skies and earth simultaneously.
BOOOOOOM! BOOOOOOM! BOOOOOOM!
The ground beneath the battlefield instantly cracked apart while countless soldiers lost balance and fell to the ground, and giant shockwaves spread outward like massive storms destroying everything in their path.
Entire forests were uprooted instantly.
Nearby mountains exploded apart one after another.
Even the clouds in the sky were blown away violently.The sea far away from the battlefield erupted into gigantic tidal waves.
The clash looked like the end of the world itself.
Yet...
No one could properly see the battle.The two giant blurry figures moved too fast.
All people could see were fleeting flashes and distorted afterimages appearing across the heavens before disappearing again.
One moment the giant sword appeared high in the sky.
The next moment a massive explosion erupted thousands of miles away.
BANG!
Another collision echoed.
