443 The Energy of—!

Azrael ran as quick as he might, reaching out towards his sword’s hilt. His actions had been quick however appeared too gradual in our senses. And simply as his fingers had been about to the touch the hilt…

*GRAAAAAGH!*

A brief roar echoed, which was adopted by a vicious assault. The Void Beast waved the spiky pike in its hand, utilizing it like a blunt weapon as an alternative of a piercing one.

Earlier than he might contact his sword, he was pressured to maneuver again, out of the pike’s lengthy vary. Happily, he managed to remain away from the spikes and wasn’t broken by them.

“Sh*t! Too gradual!”

I cursed, desirous to slap the again of Azrael’s head if I might. Nonetheless, blaming him would not change something. The Void Beast stood up, but it surely was visibly weakened.

The sword piercing by its chest in all probability dealt fairly heavy injury to it!

With the Void Beast closely injured and Azrael totally healed, the combat was now turning into a fair one. Nonetheless, the issue is that there are barely 5 minutes left till the Fake Contract ends.

We have to finish this combat quick!

“Ember, give me all of the Power Restoration potions you’ve!”

Since we had been working brief on time, I now not hesitated and deliberate to make use of “that.” Ember did not hassle questioning me and promptly took out all of the Power Restoration Potions she had on her. A complete of 5 vials.

“Nice. Then, you two, go and assist Azrael in preventing the Void Beast. I would like to remain right here the place it is secure!”

“… You brat. Do not you dare order me round!”

Namia was, as common, offended at me for making an attempt to offer orders to her. Nonetheless, understanding that not following my phrases might result in her eventual loss of life, she had no selection however to comply with them.

Ember, as common, went towards the enemy promptly. Generally, I want she would attempt to reject my orders a couple of times. Effectively, having obedient monsters is one of the best, although.

As quickly as the 2 went to combat with Azrael, I rapidly popped the corks of all 5 vials earlier than downing their contents one after one other. Attributable to their overlapping results, power began to hurry into my physique, like a dry sponge absorbing water.

“Ugh!”

Azrael dove to the Void Beast’s spiky sides and eventually managed to achieve his sword’s hilt. As quickly as he grabbed it, as an alternative of merely pulling it out, he determined to go and inflict as a lot injury as doable on it.

[Flames of Retribution! Devour my enemy!]

With a brief chant, the flames that had been slowly dying out alongside the sword’s blade all of a sudden roared right into a raging conflagration. Every thing from the Void Beast’s chest and above was bathed within the flames, which bypassed its shell and quickly burned away.

The Void Beast flailed round, waving its pike, shoving the spikes throughout its physique, and all else, in a bid to push Azrael away. Nonetheless, with Azrael below the impact of Standing Augmentation, his pace was higher than what the Void Beast might deal with.

Azrael effortlessly evaded every spike and even went so far as waving his Flamberge to the aspect, letting it minimize by the Void Beast’s chest diagonally upwards.

A big minimize, virtually bisecting its physique, was created!

Seeing the injury he delivered, Azrael stood nonetheless for a second, as if watching his nice murals and savoring the second.

“B*tch! End it off! Come on!”

I began roaring from distant. I am already filled with that “unable to complete the enemy” bullsh*t!

Azrael turned to me for a brief prompt, as if desirous to say one thing, however ultimately, he determined to comply with my phrases. To be sure that the Void Beast died, he lined his sword with raging flames to the restrict that he might muster earlier than waving it down.

*CRACK!*

The shell round its physique was now not sufficient to guard it, because it acquired bisected in halves from head to groin. As quickly as this occurred, the Void Beast’s physique began to disintegrate into black particles of matter and power, as if sublimating.

“… Is it useless?”

Namia muttered together with her brows furrowed. I rapidly turned to her, evident, as her phrases simply now had been a flag. One which was forbidden to be mentioned proper after ending a strong enemy!

Happily, such a cliche did not occur, and the Void Beast’s corpse vanished fully, leaving nothing behind. Seeing that, I lastly might heave a sigh of reduction.
