Hero of Darkness Chapter 665: Setting Terms

Chapter 665: Setting Terms

Blackwall performed live entombment on the blood t.i.tan with his terrain manipulation ability and Axel threw up a chunk of black blood as a result after the t.i.tan died. However, this wasn't going to be the end of his misery.

[A backlash from the divine ability?] asked Rathnaar.

[No. Blood Monarch divine ability is dependent on blood supply but there are no backlashes on the user.

Looks like that monster was Axel's own creation. Must be his bloodline ability and now that the monster is dead, he is receiving the aftershock of the skill getting destroyed.] responded Kahn.

[Good for us. Now get rid of it.] said the peak saint's soul.

Kahn quickly appeared on the left side of this ma.s.sive 1 kilometer tall spherical boulder that had the collective blood of all the monsters Axel created using the Blood Monarch divine ability.

Swoos.h.!.+

The very next second, a black shadow instantly formed a thick layer of coating and spread across this ma.s.sive sphere rapidly, giving Axel no chance to retract or call back the blood that was locked inside the body of the blood t.i.tan.

Schwooaa!!

"You! What have you done?!" shouted Axel as he started throwing up more black blood.

"Nothing much. I'm just collecting some quality food for the mosquitoes in my house. I bet they'd love it." said Kahn nonchalantly.

Just now, Kahn pulled the entire structure inside his dimensional domain, cutting off its connection with Axel so the latter would lose his best weapon so far.

[Dammit! Soul Eater, Sage's Eye and now Blood Monarch… 3 of my divine abilities are already useless. I can't use Chrono Vision either since it's only useful to run through the past events.

The last one… I still have 7 more lives now. So only that one can keep me alive till I manage to kill this Hero of Darkness and all of his allies.] thought Axel.

At this moment, Axel lost his advantage of 3 of his Divine Abilities because Sage's Eye was used up for the day. The three subordinates of Kahn could perfectly nullify the use of Blood Monarch. And Ronin could s.n.a.t.c.h away the souls of his fallen saint rank party members that he was using as a source for extra lives.

And to put the nail in the coffin, Blackwall already killed one of his biggest trump cards which was like having another 3rd stage saint on the battlefield.

However, he could still salvage the blood to keep on fighting. But this really wasn't his day as Kahn somehow made it all disappear under a black shadow, cutting off the connection with his blood bank completely.

Crack!

Crack!

Axel's true form that maintained a distance of 10 kilometers from everyone started shrinking back and within 20 seconds, Axel reverted to his human appearance once again.

The main reason being that in Vantrea, his true form had the restriction of an enormous blood supply that he could also use for Blood Monarch. But now that Kahn took away his main source and had allies to get rid of the remaining blood even if he recovered it… he could no longer maintain his true form. Otherwise, with the constant loss of blood, he would lose his ability to fight.

"To think that a wretched pathetic weakling like you would force my hand to this extent.

Tell me, Salvatore… Do you dare fight me one on one?" asked Axel with a scornful gaze towards Kahn.

"Nope."

Kahn declined on the spot without even thinking twice.

"What?! Are you a coward then? Where is your honor as a man?!" shouted Axel, trying to provoke the enemy.

"Do I look like an idiot to you? You ganged up on Venessa with 8 saints including yourself.

Where was your 'honor' back then?" rebuked Kahn.

"Now that you're on the losing end… you're resorting to the childish method of riling me with such cliche provocations.

And on top of it… you have 7 more lives while I have only one. What kind of dumba.s.s would agree to such a hopeless and unfair fight." he said loudly.

Just then, the woman behind Kahn spoke…

"Hah! What a loser. Acting like he's some big shot while using a deceitful tactic.

Aren't you a chosen Hero? So much of a man you are…

Fight him one on one with your life on the line if you dare." Venessa clamored, her voice filled with disdain reaching Axel's ears.

"You wh.o.r.e! I'll show you who's the real man when I turn you into my plaything and make you submit to me.

Just wait till I kill this b.a.s.t.a.r.d and capture you!" shouted Axel with a gaze filled with wrath.

[Good job. He's a textbook Misogynist so this provocation hit the mark.] spoke Kahn to Venessa through the artifact.

[But can you fight him? You will have to kill him 7 more times. And if my information isn't wrong, the Hero of Fire has 5 divine abilities.

We have seen only 3 so far.] said Venessa.

[That's not the problem. I have my ways to kill him. What I'm worried about is the type of his divine abilities.

Do you have any idea about it?] asked Kahn in return.

[No. They're all well-guarded secrets and only the Pope knows about them. It's a rule set for every generation of summoned heroes.] replied Venessa truthfully.

Kahn nodded and then looked back at Axel.

"Alright, s.h.i.+tface. I'll take up on your challenge.

We will have a one vs one battle of our own." declared Kahn.

Axel's face turned happier after hearing that statement. However, his joy didn't last for long.

"But after you have only one life left." he said with an evil smirk.

Swoos.h.!.+

Swoos.h.!.+

BOOM!!

Rumble!!

One after another, all of the remaining subordinates started revealing horrifying oppressive auras while the 4 generals also reverted to their humanoid appearances.

The 50 kilometers radius battlefield turned into a destroyed terrain as these beings who were akin to natural disasters on their own targeted their killing intent at Axel.

"Alright, boys… it's time." said Kahn, the main boss of this group let out a grin as he continued with a tyrannical voice…

"To use the Pendragon Formation."
