448 Transient Peace I, for some reason, started a passionate sales pitch about the monitors and the other technological appliances that Ember was slowly trying to increase in numbers. For example, the smartphone. That one was already out of the prototype stage after she completed the upgraded computer. After all, she simply had to modify the program a little to make it fit a touch panel instead of a keyboard and mouse, and voila, it's done! Of course, there are only two of those currently…

447 Successful Defense When we returned to where Blanc and the others were, Zehsion was the first to notice our arrival. "Oh? That was fast. Was the army so fearsome you needed to retreat?" Zeshion asked with a hint of teasing, but I quickly shook my head, smiling back at him, and responded. "Nah, it's just that there were too few of them. Fang, Minerva, and Hekate wiped them out in minutes." "Hahaha! Good one!" Zeshion laughed, but seeing that I was still just smiling at him, his face…

446 Not Just "A Little Bit" OP As soon as Minerva used her Domain, darkness covered everything. Slowly, the darkness gathered before each demon that was caught within range... which was literally everything that she could see. In front of the god-level demons, something like their monochrome clone appeared. The less intelligent ones didn't bother to even look at their clones and continued walking toward their destinations, but the ones that could think for themselves attacked immediately.…

445 For the Future! God-level demons might not be much of a threat compared to the Void Beast, but still, with their numbers, we would be at a disadvantage if they focused their attacks on a single place. Fortunately, such a possibility was eliminated almost immediately. "The demon army is scattering?" That was the first thing that Ember reported as soon as we had a bit of rest. After she checked the state of the army, she found that the march was slowly turning chaotic. As if they just…

444 Calculating the Damage As soon as the Void Beast's death was confirmed, I could finally relax. Of course, I didn't turn off the Status Augmentation just yet. One for the case where some random enemy arrives, and two since the Energy Recovery potions I took were still actively replenishing my energy. If I stop Status Augmentation at this moment, then, for sure, I would end up having an Energy Overload. If that happened, then, without a doubt, I would die after my body exploded. "Hmm?" The…

443 The Power of—! Azrael ran as fast as he could, reaching out toward his sword's hilt. His movements were fast but seemed too slow in our senses. And just as his fingers were about to touch the hilt... *GRAAAAAGH!* A short roar echoed, which was followed by a vicious attack. The Void Beast waved the spiky pike in its hand, using it like a blunt weapon instead of a piercing one. Before he could touch his sword, he was forced to move back, out of the pike's long range. Fortunately, he…

442 Angel VS Void Beast (3) Now that I have what I need to fight the Void Beast, it's finally time to go serious. "!" Lifeblood, one of my oldest, simplest, but most trustworthy powerup skills, was technically limitless. The only limiting factor for it was the penalty if you used it beyond your body's capacity. At the 9th stage, my body could hold the backlash of 100% output without side effects, practically able to keep it running 24/7. However, it's not like 100% is the maximum.…

Azrael was wounded, but it wasn't anything worth worrying about. With his healing ability, the wound should vanish sooner or later. "...?" However, my expectations couldn't be more wrong. The wound on Azrael's side started to turn black, just like with Ember's wound, and as soon as it did, its healing also halted. "No way!" Does this mean wounds inflicted by the Void Beast are impossible to heal?! I quickly turned to Ember and saw that her face was still filled with cold sweat. She was obviously…

The red beam of powerful energy came closer and closer to my body. Just as I was thinking that it was over for me, two voices suddenly reached my ears. "Master!" "You little brat!" And along with their voices, I felt a powerful tug from the back of my neck. As if I were some stuffed toy, I was pulled forcefully and slammed against the ground in one go. "Ugh!" Air got knocked out of my chest as I slammed on the ground, but rather than worrying over the pain I was feeling, the concern for Ember…

Cold sweat fell down my forehead as I started to let my brain run in overdrive. Our current situation is extremely dangerous, no matter how you look at it. Fortunately, the Void Beast was still not moving, but if it moved, then our death would almost be a certainty. To avoid that, we need to get out of here fast! I quickly double-checked the barrier around us, but as expected, there was no gap. It's like a semispherical zone, about ten kilometers in diameter. Any method that bypasses space was…
