Mana was boiling within him while he was waiting.
The flashy and extravagant sky of the demon world was responding positively to the two manas.
Everyone on the battlefield was looking at one area. Everyone was looking at Yong-Ho and Agares.
Agares was the first to move.
Mana was focused on his destroyed back and on the area where his wing was ripped off. It wasn't like time was moving backwards. It was more like change. As Agares kicked off the ground, the injured area disappeared. In the area where the wings were, arms with blades at the end shot out. And several layers of new shells formed on his melted back.
Fire and water.
Agares changed his body so that it was more aggressive. As he got closer to Yong-Ho, all six of his eyes were looking in different directions. He commanded while releasing an intimidating roar!
Everyone on the battlefield cheered. Agares's real spirits, the insect-type monsters cried out at the same time. And the monsters that ripped the Land Worms apart looked up. They listened to their owner and started moving.
Hundreds of them cried towards the sky. The ground shook when they all jumped off the ground at the same time.
The insect-type monsters charged towards Yong-Ho from different directions. The battlefield was right outside the gate and Agares had the advantage when it came to numbers.
Yong-Ho heard their cries as well. He also felt the ground shaking. But he didn't look away. He glared at the monsters that were charging at him.
It was really intimidating. They were so violent that it felt like just looking at them could kill you.
But, he could go against them. Yong-Ho thought about Aamon. He recalled the way Gusion looked down on him.
He took a step forward and gave his command!
"Skullll!"
A black storm broke through the monsters' roar. Skull and the soldiers that followed were between Yong-Ho and the monsters. Even though there were only about 10 of them, it was almost like an iron barrier.
Catalina and Ophelia also moved. They were behind Yong-Ho and they became Yong-Ho's blades. They charged towards Agares.
Agares swung his four blades. His attacks were extremely violent. Catalina saw his attack and naturally read its trajectory. She moved to the right and dodged his blades.
Ophelia did the same as Catalina. She moved her body to the left to dodge his attack and then after kicking off the ground, she attacked his side.
Agares didn't have a choice but to slow down. He attacked his sides with his blades.
He wasn't trying to dodge their attacks. He was trying to attack. Even though he was only using two blades, it was even more dangerous.
Ophelia stopped breathing. It was different from the attacks that Catalina read. She felt his attacks. Ophelia used her Red Demon's physical ability and focused it on her legs. Then, she threw herself between his blades. Right after, she kicked off Agares's body. Opehlia focused and attacked Agares's head.
It was a strong attack. But his shell was too thick. Even though Agares's head was immediately bent down, he wasn't shocked by the attack.
Ophelia wasn't disappointed. The moment she landed, she jumped back. She kept her guard up and looked at Agares's back.
Catalina focused on her black mana. She found a weak spot on Agares's new shell. Since the new shell formed in areas where the old shell was destroyed, it was unbalanced, so Catalina used her dagger to pierce into his back.
Catalina wasn't experienced in controlling her mana. That's why she performed the easiest attack. Her mana exploded!
Agares felt the pain. But it was still weak. Catalina jumped off of Agares's back without any hesitation. Catalina looked ahead of Agares and looked at Yong-Ho.
And that made him mad.
The moment Catalina and Ophelia turned their attention elsewhere, Agares attacked. Even though he had the body of a monster, he was a demon king.
Lightning and thunder were released from Agares's body. They enveloped both Catalina and Ophelia.
There was a short scream. Catalina fell and Ophelia endured it by gritting her teeth. Agares moved all six of his eyes. He was getting ready to swing his blades in different directions.
And then there was fire.
Agares saw the fire that was in front of him, so he started swinging his arms. Instead of going against the one that started the fire, he jumped off the ground. Agares threw himself in the direction that Yong-Ho didn't expect.
Catalina landed on her back. Ophelia gritted her teeth once more and turned her head.
Agares was targeting the soldiers in the Free City. They came out of the city in order to protect Yong-Ho and his spirits from the insect-type monsters, but now, they had to face Agares himself.
The tall and large Gigantes were the first sacrifices. The soldiers weren't able to dodge Agares's blades like Catalina and Ophelia did. The moment he swung his arms, their upper and lower bodies went flying. Agares destroyed three Gigantes, but he didn't stop there. The slaughter that Oros was worried about was happening.
Blood and corpses flew in the air. Agares was covered in those and the lightning that he released exploded, slaughtering more soldiers.
Agares looked all around him at the same time. The insect-type monsters were starting to overpower the soldiers. And some of Agares's soldiers that came from other places were about to fight the soldiers that were in the Free City.
It wasn't a fight against two small groups.
It was a fight against two big groups.
What they wanted was for Agares to lead the battle.
One of Agares's eyes found a threat. Oros, the leader that Agares took down first, was on top of the gate and was charging at him through the blood and corpses that were in the air.
Agares swung his sword. Oros swung his scimitar and it clashed with the blade. But, it was a bad move. Even though Oros drank a potion that helped him increase his strength, it wasn't enough to go up against Agares. His scimitar broke. Oros's right arm was cut off.
"Grease!"
The moment Agares was going to cut Oros's waist, a spell had been activated. The spell that Dargon casted made the ground beneath Agares slippery and as Agares lost his balance, he swung his blade in the air.
But it was only for a moment. Agares used his other feet to jump off the ground that wasn't slippery. He ignored Oros, who was in pain, and charged towards Dargon.
Since Agares was moving too fast, Dargon gave up on casting another spell. He tightened his grip on his mace as he watched Agares kill the soldiers in front of him.
Oros wasn't dumb. Catalina and Ophelia were the only ones that were able to dodge Agares's attacks. It would be different if he wasn't fighting at all, but the moment he saw Agares, he knew that the only thing him and Dargon could do was block his attacks.
Dargon concentrated. Agares broke through the bloody wall and Dargon blocked his blades with his mace. The moment they clashed, his knee went out. He activated his Ogre strength and the moment he tried to push the blade, another blade cut his stomach.
The fear he felt only lasted for a moment. Blood and internal organs flowed out of his stomach. The blade that stabbed his side broke his bones. Dargon couldn't do anything and the blade that was in his body vertically cut his body.
Screams and cries filled the battlefield. Some expressed their fear and that was affecting the others. And the insect-type monsters started killing off the Free City soldiers. Death was everywhere.
Oros started thinking. Should he not have left the gate? Should he have watched Agares and his troops get murdered by the House of Mammon's owner?
They were useless questions. If they couldn't stop him here, then it would be all over.
Oros re-grew his severed arm. He was breathing heavily because he had used too much of his energy, but he managed to lift his head and look at Agares.
Agares was eating Dargon. His large teeth were painted with blood and his eyes were moving in different directions. Oros knew that Agares was enjoying himself.
He yelled. Catalina and Ophelia ran past Oros. The two charged towards Agares once again and Agares, who was chewing Dargon's upper body, spat it out and turned his body. Out of the six eyes, four of them were on Catalina and Ophelia. The other two were searching the sky.
Catalina and Ophelia had to take a bigger risk. Even though the number of blades and speed was the same as before, the situation on the battlefield had changed. The large pool of blood and corpses disrupted their movements.
Agares released more lighting. Instead of swinging his blades at them, he decided to release the lightning and make them explode.
The shock started spreading. The ground was slippery and sticky.
But Catalina and Ophelia didn't stop. They couldn't stop.
They threw their bodies between the blades. They barely managed to dodge his attacks, but still got closer to Agares. They attacked Agares with everything they had.
Catalina made her black mana explode. Ophelia kicked one of Agares's legs and broke it.
Agares endured the pain. Out of the six eyes, two of them were looking at Catalina and Ophelia. The other four were now looking around to find the one that would soon arrive.
A fiery tower shot down from the sky.
Agares, who had been looking at the sky, swung both of his arms. He was trying to intimidate Catalina and Ophelia and at the same time, he jumped back to dodge the fiery tower.
The fiery tower crashed into the ground. Agares saw Salami flying in the air with two of his eyes.
Agares blinked. He noticed that the color of the fire was different from before and no one was riding on Salami's back. All six of his eyes were looking towards one direction.
"Swoooooooosh!"
A green fire broke through the fiery tower.
Yong-Ho was enveloped in Greed's fire and broke through Salami's fiery tower. Within seconds, he was near Agares.
Agares swung his blades, but it was late. Yong-Ho was already close to him. Agares opened his mouth and shot out acid.
It was bad for Yong-Ho too. He was too close. While charging, he couldn't dodge the acid.
That's why Yong-Ho didn't back out. He took a step forward and raised his left arm.
"Kaiwan!"
He yelled. The Power of Distortion that was released from his left hand protected Yong-Ho. The acid bounced against the wall of space and a part of it landed on Agares's body.
"Kyahhhh!"
Agares expressed his pain and anger. Yong-Ho ignored it. He jumped up and stepped on Agares's leg. He pulled Aamon back and looked at Agares's eye.
It pierced.
Aamon's tip broke through Agares's glass-like eye. At the same time, the tentacle that quickly grew from Agares's body pierced through Yong-Ho's abdomen.
Agares screeched. Yong-Ho gritted his teeth and used his power.
The green flames burned Agares's eye. From there, the fire burned into Agares's head. This pain couldn't be compared to the first time his eye was attacked.
Agares jumped around crazily. He screamed while waving all four blades in different directions. Green flames escaped his eyes and mouth.
Yong-Ho didn't attack him again. Aamon transformed into a bracelet and fell on Yong-Ho's wrist. As soon as Yong-Ho landed on the ground, he looked up and read the mana's flow.
Agares's mana was raging. His will to live activated his regenerative power and he focused his body's mana into one area.
That's why Yong-Ho was able to clearly see it. The area where Agares was focusing his mana. The area where Agares's spirit was located!
Yong-Ho wielded Aamon again. Agares couldn't move because of the regenerative power, so Yong-Ho looked at his abdomen. He pulled Aamon back and produced a very hot fire.
The single attack that broke through the Steel Ox that was on the first floor of the Arena.
Yong-Ho remembered the things he learned from Aamon. He was going to use them now.
The lance pierced into Agares's body. The hot fire broke Agares's shell. Aamon broke through Agares's abdomen and destroyed the concentrated mana that was helping Agares regenerate.
There was only one thing left.
A radiant fire was released from Aamon. He consumed Agares's spirit.
