Game Of Divine Thrones Chapter 210: Kuruela the Fallen Angel 5

Chapter 210: Kuruela the Fallen Angel 5

“It’s a really creepy presence. It’s as if the grim reaper was coming down,” Brynhildr mentioned in a monotone voice with a blank expression.

“It seems like it gained greater power before it fell from grace, probably after using forbidden knowledge or something,” Sieg answered in a deadpan manner while looking at the descending fallen angel.

The source of the coming apocalypse that crushed the Valkyrie and the Dragon Slayer.

Now, Woohyuk had to fight desperately against this being.

“Everyone moves according to plan. From now on, I can’t afford to chat.”

Woohyuk summoned Verserios and announced the start of the operation.

Sieg commanded the ally forces on the ground while riding Grane.

Helena and Maria stood in the backlines and protected the main forces.

The rest were supposed to focus their attack on the fallen angel, Cruella, using teleportation to attack and retreat in succession.

As Woohyuk’s party moved, the two priests leading the Imperial Army drew their holy swords.

“For the peace of the Empire!” Hildegard, Paladin of Flurry, shouted.

“Honorable death!” Ishrei, the Paladin of Freezing, yelled aloud.

The fact was that these two were essentially the main force of the summoned Imperial forces.

The Imperial Army soldiers’ morale was raised because of the example set by these two Paladins, so the Imperial Army soldiers raised their weapons and burned with fervor to enter the war.

“Wahhhhhhhhh!”

“Let’s defeat the fallen angel!”

Currently, Cruella had pulled out about half her body from the s.p.a.ce and time warp gap.

Numerous magic spheres and arrows were flung towards her visible body.

However, the Cruella neutralized all the attacks with a translucent veil…

[… How annoying. Die.]

Raising her left hand’s index finger, she created a large black magic circle in the air.

Eventually, meteorites wrapped in flames poured out of the red-colored sky like heavy rain, and a scene that could only be seen in the depths of h.e.l.l unfolded on the battlefield.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!”

“S-Save me!”

The earth was scorched as meteorites pounded onto the ground and burned everything in their vicinity.

The previously orderly battle line was in utter shambles and screams from soldiers could be heard everywhere.

However, that wasn’t the end.

Cruella’s red eyes flashed, and thousands of demons popped out of her body and ravaged the soldiers who had luckily survived the first attack.

The demon forces were overwhelmingly destructive, enough to be called a catastrophe in and of themselves.

Seeing all of this unfold in front of her, Hildegard, the Paladin of Flurry, looked frustrated.

“This is… a fallen angel?” Hildegard said in a dumbfounded voice.

She had heard stories about the fallen angel and her destructive powers from Maria, the Saint of Prophecy, many times, but when she actually experienced them firsthand, she understood that even Maria had underestimated Cruella’s powers.

Ishrei, the Paladin of Freezing, laughed in a resigning manner, sympathizing with Hildegard.

“Maybe today will be our expiration date.”

The two Paladins wielded their holy swords and attacked like crazy, cutting off countless demons and beasts’ heads that blocked their view.

But that was all.

The demons and beasts that were cut down continued to regenerate, and no matter how hard they struggled against these regenerating opponents, the status quo remained.

“Where is the Hero King…?”

“He was standing in the frontline with his colleagues. I’m pretty sure he’s doing his part.”

The two couldn’t afford to worry about others right now.

While the two Paladins were fighting, Woohyuk and Brynhildr were making a pathway through the air toward Cruella.

Slice!

Slice!

Following the trajectory of his long spear, the demons were cut into pieces and fell down into a pile below.

Behind them, Roan, whose seal was completely lifted, summoned his transcendental weapon, Ragnor.

Depending on the situation, Roan was changing the shape of the Ragnor weapon and removing the threats approaching the party from the rear.

[You guys… I don’t much like you…]

Cruella narrowed her eyebrows and raised her index finger towards Woohyuk’s advancing party.

Then, a purple ray, like a shot from a giant particle cannon, was fired along the movement of the index finger and seemingly swallowed up the party.

Kwa-Kwa-Kwa-Kwa-Kwa-Kwa-Kwa-Kwa-Kw.a.n.g!

This was the same technique that Hevnia had shown Woohyuk before.

Woohyuk’s party waited for the bombing to cease, relying on Brynhildr’s guardians.h.i.+p defensive barrier to take care of the oncoming onslaught.

“Isn’t it time to start using Roan? Cruella’s attacks are getting worse.”

“I was just thinking of doing that before you mentioned it.”

Roan, a Gluttony Homunculus, was able to fully use his existing abilities when all his seals were unsealed.

The Ragnor Weapon was one of those abilities.

Since it was a transcendental weapon, it was possible to break the barriers of the G.o.ds and absorb the opponent’s skills while inflicting fatal damage.

If Roan could use his Ragnor Weapon to strike a critical blow on Cruella…

‘It may be able to restrict Cruella from being able to use her cloning ability.’

In the future shown by Hevnia, Cruella’s cloning ability was so powerful that even Verserios, the demon’s exclusive weapon, could be cloned and used against him.

Her cloning ability made it quite difficult for Woohyuk to get close enough to her somehow for a final blow.

This was why Hevnia told him to use Roan in the battle against Cruella.

‘This time, I’ve prepared everything, so I’ll be able to get it done.’

Honestly, it would have been nice if they even had the support of the Dragon Tribes, but they were unable to intervene in this cataclysmic event because of the ancient covenant.

There was also a possibility of accidentally being influenced by Cruella and turning into demonic dragons.

Therefore, the Seven Demon Kings sealed in Lemegeton and the other artifacts currently in his possession were very important.

In particular, the Absorber Trigger and Lilith's Unholy Grail were very useful in this situation.

“Brynhildr, it would be better to cancel your defensive barrier now. If we keep standing here in one place, Cruella could change the pattern and launch an unexpected attack.”

“Alright. But when will you use your hidden card?”

“At the decisive moment.”

In the last mock battle, Woohyuk didn’t use the Absorber Trigger and Lilith’s Unholy Grail.

The opponent was so strong that he didn’t have time to bring them out and use them nor did he feel the need or importance to use them.

Rather than using tricks, he had aimed for an opening to launch an all-out attack. However, Cruella, the Fallen Angel, didn’t easily give him any openings to exploit.

This time around, Woohyuk decided to use all of the available means at his disposal to increase the chances of winning, even if it was only by a little.

Soon, when Brynhildr’s defensive barrier was about to be removed, Woohyuk immediately summoned the seven Demon Kings who resided within Lemegeton.

“Hey! Wasn’t that the fallen angel from last time?”

“I see that there’s no sense of discomfort in the surrounding air, so this time, that fallen angel seems to be real.”

“Anyway, please take care of us, Amon. We’re on the same side now, right?”

“… Don’t pretend to be close to me, Dantalion. You and I are at different levels.”

“Hey, we’re both under the same predicament anyway. Sheesh.”

The seven Demon Kings always said a word each time they were summoned outside Lemegeton. It seemed that they enjoyed voicing their frustrations of being trapped in Lemegeton.

As the Demon Kings materialized, Woohyuk also summoned Caribdis, the monster of the abyss.

‘Among the undead, this guy is probably the most useful.’

It was better to leave the rest of the undead intact for the northern front confrontations that would probably follow.

As the threatening enemies increased in an instant, Cruella unfurled her pitch-black wings.

Shwah!

From the s.h.i.+ny feathers, black energy began to spread like a wave in all directions.

Seeing this, Brynhildr urgently shouted out to Woohyuk,

“It’s hallucination magic! If you ignore it and rush in, you may get affected, so be careful!”

“… There’s no way to avoid it. For the time being, we have no choice but to confront Cruella from at a distance.”

Woohyuk took out Lilith’s Unholy Grail after commanding his forces back.

Using Lilith’s Unholy Grail, he created stormy weather, like a black sea swelling up and undulating…

Ururu! Bang! Bang!

Thick water droplets began to pour down accompanied by the sound of roaring thunder.

It was a rapid change in weather.

The weather’s chaotic winds and pouring rain gradually weakened the power of the black waves generated by Cruella’s wings.

[You… die.]

When things didn’t go as she intended, Cruella flashed her red eyes open and pointed at Woohyuk with her left index finger.

At the same time, a countless number of beasts and demons changed directions and flew toward Woohyuk’s party at once!

However, Woohyuk continued to narrow the gap between him and Cruella without hesitation.

“It’s not me who’ll die but you...!”

He already knew all of her hidden skills and abilities.

A new ability that he didn’t see last time came out, but it wasn’t a big variable.

As the situation continued to deteriorate for her, Cruella became resentful and again cast Area of Effect (AOE) magic.

Kwa-Kwa-Kwa-Kwa-Kwa-Kwa-Kwa-Kwa-Kwa-Kwa-Kw.a.n.g!

Meteors that were wrapped in flames poured down from the sky like heavy rain.

This time, the range was much wider than the first time, so it devastated the area beyond the visible horizon.

As a result, the army forces on the ground were further reduced in size, and Caribdis, who was swimming through the air, suffered considerable damage.

“Woo-woo-woo-woong!” Caribdis cried out as it rushed toward Cruella.

However, it was beautifully struck by the purple rays fired from Cruella’s index finger.

‘It’s a waste, but it can’t be helped.’

In order to keep Cruella distracted, he needed another something to threaten her and take her focus off of him for a moment.

When Woohyuk was thinking about who to send this time,

[Do you need my help, disciple?]

Nakron’s voice echoed in his mind.

He was able to summon him again as a result of surpa.s.sing his personal limits at Hevnia’s ruins.

Woohyuk happily requested Nakron for support.

[Redirect Cruella’s gaze as much as possible. She needs to show a gap so I can approach her and connect with a critical hit.]

[I’ll try to the best of my ability.]

With a puff of red smoke, Nakron and his Liches emerged on the other side of Cruella.

After that, Nakron and his party worked with the seven Demon Kings and launched a joint attack on Cruella…

“We’ve finally arrived.”

Woohyuk’s party was finally able to reach Cruella.

All that was left was to help Roan crit Cruella with his Ragnor weapon.

Woohyuk immediately pushed the red b.u.t.ton on the Absorber Trigger to cause Black Demolition.

Chi-Ji-Ji-JI-Ji!

The immediate surrounding was covered with a spherical barrier and a black electric current penetrated Cruella’s body.

Cruella spit out a short groan and hurriedly shook her pitch-black wings.

Kwaji-Ji-Ji!

The s.p.a.ce shook. The intangible wave created by Cruella’s wings broke the barrier.

It seemed that even Black Demolition was no match to contain Cruella.

However, thanks to this brief moment, Woohyuk had earned enough time.

“Brynhildr, buff Roan with divine magic. Now it’s his turn to attack.”

“Alright. But, can we really trust Roan?”

Brynhildr was aware of Roan’s brutal past, so she was anxious about him taking on such an important role.

After hearing her words, Woohyuk turned his head and looked down at Roan.

“If you fail or do anything unconscionable, I’ll cut off your b.a.l.l.s personally.”

“Ahhhhhhhhh! Roan doesn’t want to become a ball-less man!”

Roan was sincerely afraid of Woohyuk’s words.

As Roan pledged absolute obedience, Woohyuk instructed Amon.

[I’m going to cast Annihilation, so I need you to cast G.o.d Death from where you are. That way, there’ll be less attention given to my side.]

If G.o.d Death summoned a huge black hole and sucked in all the beings around it, Annihilation would further confuse the enemy by placing several small black holes in various different locations and connecting them in a complicated way.

In other words, Woohyuk was using Annihilation as a kind of dimensional pa.s.sage so that Roan could approach Cruella through an unpredictable path.

Amon looked uncomfortable when he was told by another to use his personal skill, but he soon acquiesced and nodded.

[I will do according to your wishes.]

[Then, let’s start right away.]

Hwi-Hwi-Hwi-Ah!

Dozens of small black holes sprung up around Cruella when Woohyuk cast magic mana into the Nocturne of the Crescent Moon.
