A Bet with Slutty Evil Being!-Chapter 38 38: Asmodeus? That Is Not Me!
?"Once Linias arrives, he will be killed. Together, we shall eliminate you, something you utterly failed to accomplish on your previous mission. You are to receive your punishment for failing to follow our commands because Evan died as a result of you."
"I can smell pride." Alex spoke, not having yet addressed the two angels. "I can sense pride in every word you've said."
"What did that mean?"
"Along with Pride, I can also sense... wrath. You were aware of Evan, right?" He was aware that provoking her was not a good idea, but he had to respond to what she had said.
"You are not allowed to talk to me, filth. I wil-" Linias' hand was lifted in front of Danna, interrupting her.
Then Linias spoke, and Alex had never heard a voice so soulless and frigid. Linias spoke with total calmness, "We had a close friendship with Evan. Within the same garrison, we served side by side. Retaliation for the death of another is a typical desire. But you're right—getting even is an expression of anger, and anger is wrong. Once our job is complete, she will consider the appropriateness of her words and deeds."
After finishing his sentence, Linias produced a weapon in his hands. There was a golden, white hand axe. Both a huge spike at the top of the haft and a smaller spike at the bottom of the hilt were attached to the axe.
Alex assumed that the metal used for the axe's construction was the same as the one used for their armour.
Along the hilt, leather straps were crisscrossed and wrapped. The axe measured around 80 cm from haft to hilt. It's a deadly tool.
Danna and Aureal both had weapons appear in their hands, similar to Linias. A sword with a little curvature served as Danna's weapon. Her armour is made of the same metal.
The blade, however, had an arrowhead-shaped end rather than a typical point. Its guard was seamlessly attached to the blade and hilt, giving the impression that the guard was also forged with the blade. f𝔯ee𝘸𝘦𝚋𝒏oѵ𝐞l.c𝒐𝓂
Similar to Linias's axe, the hilt was clad in leather. It's a deadly tool.
The weapon Aureal used was... Quite large. an enormous warhammer. The hammer's head was attached to its hilt, just like the other two weapons, and it was made of the same metal as her armour.
The hammer's opposing faces were divided into two distinct shapes. The square face of the hammer had a taper along each of its edges. The other face has a circle-like form.
One star was etched into each of the four corners of the square face. The sword itself was only a few centimetres shorter overall, from the top of the head to the bottom of the hilt, than Aureal stood tall.
There were just two significant design variations between Aureal's weapon and the other two. The hilt was surrounded by straps made of blue silk.
And rather than having the same gold-white hue that the other two angels' weapons did, Aureal's sword, as well as her armour, appeared to start losing its sheen and lustre.
"Danna, you will keep the outlaw busy; if you can get rid of her, do so. I'll take care of the Lord of Lust, Asmodeus." Order from Linias.
"Asmodeus? Say what? I don't even go by that name! This is the name of that other Lust Lord man." Despite the fact that it was inappropriate for Alex to be complaining, Linias's onslaught started.
Linias pushed the spike of the haft in Alex's direction more quickly than the human eye could see. Alex, however, had eyes that were not typical.
Alex tipped backwards while holding the Grimoire, planning to leap back and evade the onslaught. Linias' assault turned out to be more difficult than anticipated.
Linias dove forward instead of just thrusting, causing the spike to travel farther than Alex had intended.
Alex made the split-second decision to go all-or-nothing with his dodge and fell backwards rather than jumping back.
But his tumble wasn't just a tumble. Alex kicked his foot upwards with the dexterity and quickness befitting a man of his unconventional qualities.
To Linias' surprise, Alex was able to kick the weapon out of his hands. Linias lifted himself off the ground by extending his free hand downward.
The angel rose into the air, seized his sword, and then came to his feet. Alex fell to the ground completely and landed on his back.
He struggled to remember of a brief attacking spell that Alex had read, but eventually one occurred to him. 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚
"Be compressed, air."
"Air, be shaped."
"Be commanded, air."
Before changing, Alex recalled reading about the magic. It compressed air into a ball and allowed the user to direct its movement with his hand.
While holding the Grimoire in his left hand, Alex's right hand began to gather the ball. Before realising what Alex was up to, Linias was going to swing his weapon in Alex's direction.
Alex pushed one arm in the direction of Linias and commanded the ball to go in. The ball was intended to put Linias out of breath as it sped out toward his stomach with bullet-like speed.
Linias merely took a step to his left to avoid the ball. Linias dodged the ball and quickly started attacking Alex again.
"Please move quickly... Return here!" Linias didn't indicate that he was perplexed by what Alex yelled, if he was.
At first, Alex had problems keeping the ball under control; it hesitated when Alex told it to hit Linias.
Giving the ball an order, the compressed air, which by this point he thought he had mastered, stopped in its chaotic course and rocketed back towards Linias.
The ball obviously still eluded Alex's instruction because it landed in the incorrect spot. Linias either barely avoided the ball or didn't need to because it missed Alex's original target as the ball zipped past him.
Alex was thrown several metres backward when the ball struck directly in the centre of his chest. The impact resembled that of a baseball being hurled really quickly.
