Requiem Of A Failed Hero

Chapter 210 Absalom Unsealed



Kaiser had seen fights between monsters and hunters, he had seen a devastating fight, the effects on the surrounding were always enormous and scattered but he had never seen anything like this.

He stared in a daze and couldn’t take his eyes off what he was seeing, he continued to turn around and still couldn’t close his slightly opened mouth.

“Amazing…”

Ryou did not know when the words came out. He too was looking at all the marks and cracks on the wall that must have resulted due to the fight between Raith and the boss monster.

“Here!”

Absalom’s voice beckoned on the both of them to come closer and they came running.

They paused and their faces distorted with wonder as they saw the distinct humanoid ant king’s carcass on the ground.

“What in the world is this… it seems human?”

“You mean to tell me he fought this thing alone?”

Kaiser and Ryou’s words were filled with admiration befitting of a deity.

“But why is he not here then?”

Absalom’s words were filled with concern and inquisition.

“That is right…there are traces of a brawl between two people but there is only one.” Ryou’s eyes traced back to the boss monster laying dead. “It is certain that the Korean catastrophe-rank hunter defeated the boss monster but he is not here. Could he have sustained a major injury?”

“I believe we would have seen signs of that,” Kaiser answered looking at the ground to confirm if there are trails of Raith’s blood but there was nothing to pay any special attention to.

“Something is not right.” Absalom could feel it in his guts but couldn’t put his fingers around what it was exactly that was wrong.

“Then let us–

WHOOOOOIINNMM!!!

The deafening sound dawned on the entire place like an explosion, making the entire palace shudder in fear, vibrating and cracking.

The hunters immediately became tensed with alertness. There was no physical damage but whatever just happened now, they felt it vividly and could tell that something dangerous, something extremely dangerous was about to reveal itself or had probably revealed itself.

Ryou and Kaiser were looming very confused, not knowing what that was about, however, the look on Absalom’s face was different.

His face became pale and his eyes were trembling.

‘How? How? How? How? How? How is the gate of hell opening here?!!’

He screamed internally unknowing of what to make of this situation. He also wouldn’t talk aloud because of the implication, he was loyal to the secrets of his world before any world.

The gates of hell opening was a detrimental occurrence because if the gate of hell should open, a greater demon would be able to come out, and the presence of a greater demon without their powers sealed, there was nothing good that would come out of it. 𝐞𝗻𝐨𝘃𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝗺

This needed to be stopped ASAP!

It was until a few minutes later that Ryou and Kaiser noticed the expression Absalom was wearing, along with the pearls of sweat that were dripping down his head.

“Absalom are you okay?” Ryou asked.

Absalom was shaken real bad, he wasn’t even paying attention to them anymore.

“How can this be?” He muttered as he began to feel it vividly.

“Just how…?”

A frown wore upon Kaiser’s brows.

“Something is wrong. I can feel a very very ominous presence, it is here at the same time it is not here…”

Absalom looked at Kaiser.

‘That is right, if it opens even a strong human will be able to feel it too.’ He stood upright and held onto his trembling hand.

“Damn you Raith, what have you done again?!!” He screamed.

[The gates of hell have opened]

[All your sealed abilities will temporarily be unsealed]

“Ah shit, not here.”

Absalom did not get the chance to prepare mentally, these humans might shit their pants if they see how strong he is.

Wham!

Right, that instance, red blood swirled around him and began to trace his limbs and body, his short hair grew out instantly and he was standing with his white and muscled body, his long red hair reaching his lower back, his red eyes deeper than before and his vampire abilities unsealed.

Shhhh

The aura that he exuded was that of a monster, even though he was compressing it as much as he could, the little that escaped was enough to make Ryou and Kaiser jump back in fear, bringing out their weapons.

“What?! Absalom?” Ryou cocked his head.

‘Why does he have long hair? His aura changed too…’

No, he couldn’t classify this as just any kind of change. Something was different about Absalom but at the same time, that thing was so dangerous that his stomach was hurting at the thought of fighting it, he felt like he needed to take a shit because right now he was extremely nervous.

He was being stung on all his body by the deadly aura that the red-haired man in front of him was exuding.

“Have you been hiding your powers all along?” Kaiser asked as one drop of sweat ran down his temple. He swallowed his saliva after asking.

“I am sorry that you guys have to see me like this. But it is still me Absalom and it was not my intention to hide my power. It just sort of happened. But right now we have more problems on our hands. And I need both of you to come with me.”

“Come with you? To where?” Kaiser was very alert and was frowning with carefulness at the new Absalom who he was very damn sure he wouldn’t be able to defeat even if he and Ryou worked together.

“You do not need to be so tensed, we are going to find Raith. Before I could not tell, but thanks to the gate of hell opening, if I follow the coordinate of the gate of hell then we should be able to arrive at where it is open and I guess that Raith will be where ever this gate is.” He explained to them.

‘Gate of hell?’

Ryou and Kaiser were not yet understanding what he was talking about, but he didn’t need them to understand.

He closed his eyes and stretched forth his hand, opening his palms.

Wissshhh

A massive blood-red great sword appeared on it. He held it horizontally, splitting his face in half.

Swing!

The space tore open as he slashed downwards with the sword.
