Betrayed by the Succubus, I Raise a Twelve-winged Angel-Chapter 269: Aster Grant’s Decision

Seeing this scene, everyone’s faces turned grim.

This Demon Clan member’s strength was simply too overwhelming.

Even with Lilith’s full strength, she couldn’t match this Demon Clan member.

Aster Grant clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging deep into his palms, his gaze firmly locked on this Demon Clan member.

Right now, Lilith was his biggest card, but now...

Even Lilith couldn’t stop this Demon Clan member!

At this moment, a flicker of struggle flashed in his eyes.

He wasn’t a stubborn person.

He understood the saying, "As long as the green hills last, there’ll be no shortage of firewood."

If he lost his life, everything else would be meaningless.

But if he escaped...

His gaze swept across the entire Angel Race.

Now the combined forces of the Seraphs and the Demon Clan, under the efforts of the Seraph and Lilith’s avatar, had been almost wiped out.

Except for a few Seraphs who didn’t have much intention to join the Demon Clan, who were kept alive by others...

All the other Seraphs and Demon Clan members, including the rebelling Xenos, had been completely slaughtered!

This caused the whole Angel Race’s stronghold to be almost entirely soaked in blood.

At this time, Vera, Veridia, and Luna Crimson quickly reached Aster Grant’s side.

Summer Gardner also brought all the members of the Seraphim to Aster Grant’s side.

They also saw the terrifying nature of this Demon Clan member.

At this moment.

Summer Gardner walked to Aster Grant’s side, her voice heartbreakingly calm:

"Take your beasts and leave, staying here will only give this Demon Clan member the Divine Pattern for nothing."

"Later, we will burn our life force to try and hold back this Demon Clan member, you take the Divine Pattern and leave, and in this way, the Angel Race will have contributed to the Alternate Space."

Hearing this, Aster Grant’s heart was also filled with conflict.

The Jade Talisman given by the Ghost Race Clan Leader was in his Beastbond Space.

With this treasure, he and his beasts could leave here without any issue.

However, he could leave, but Summer Gardner and the others...

His gaze swept over all the Seraphs prepared to die.

Could he really abandon them and leave?

Lazuli also blocked Aster Grant at this moment.

"Master, you take Vera and the others and leave! Lazuli can’t accompany you this time."

The young girl blocking Aster Grant trembled slightly.

She didn’t want to be separated from her master.

But she couldn’t abandon her kin either.

So, no matter how reluctant she felt, she could only say these words.

Aster Grant stared at the back of the young girl in front of him, momentarily stunned.

This was the first time the young girl suggested leaving his side.

And it would be the last!

Gradually, Aster Grant came back to his senses, a slight smile forming at the corner of his lips, his gaze becoming firm.

Leave?!

Impossible!!

He had vowed, never to be separated from Lazuli.

And now...

If he retreated when faced with a powerful enemy.

What kind of Beast Tamer, what kind of man would he be?

He decisively stepped forward and held Lazuli’s small hand.

"Don’t say silly things, you are my beast, and I am your Beast Tamer! No one will leave anyone!"

"Even if we have to leave, we must defeat this Demon Clan member first."

Aster Grant’s warm palm gently held Lazuli’s trembling fingers, the familiar warmth causing the young girl to be momentarily lost.

When she heard her master’s words, tears welled up in her golden eyes, bursting forth with dazzling light.

Indeed, this was her master!

No matter how difficult the path ahead, he would not retreat in the slightest.

Lazuli returned the grip tightly, the warmth from her fingertips causing her soul to tremble.

She turned to face the terrifying Bone Demon, her twelve wings unfolding with a powerful promise:

"Master, Lazuli is not only the sharpest sword in your hand—"

The Sword of Destruction gathered in her right hand, scarlet flames soaring into the sky.

"—but also your strongest shield!"

The Shield of Protection appeared in her left hand.

Her petite body stood tall, her voice rang clear across the battlefield:

"Anyone who wishes to harm you must first step over Lazuli’s corpse!"

At this moment, the fear of death vanished without a trace.

For her, the most terrifying thing was never dying in battle but losing the warmth and belonging given to her by him.

At the same time, Veridia and Vera both stepped forward, standing shoulder to shoulder with Lazuli. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Their decision was clear!

Determination echoed in Vera’s eyes:

"Master, it was you who awakened Vera from eternal slumber, the life you granted must naturally fight for you."

Veridia silently expanded her domain, her pale fingertips gathering Netherghast Aura.

She was silent, but in her usually indifferent eyes, there burned a loyalty more fervent than words.

Seeing this scene, the Bone Demon let out a piercing laugh:

"Laughable friendship! This is merely baggage needed by the weak!"

"True strength—requires only absolute power!"

Before he finished speaking, his figure ripped through space!

The terrifying strength of the Totem Two Turn erupted completely, the Demonic Qi devouring even light wherever it passed.

This strike was clearly to shatter Aster Grant along with his protecting beasts!

Seeing this scene, the strongest, Lilith, was the first to act.

A crimson barrier instantly appeared on the Bone Demon’s inevitable path.

However, with a mere flick of his claw, the crimson barrier Lilith had unleashed was easily shattered.

Summer Gardner led the Seraphim to create a crimson barrier together.

Yet, the Bone Demon didn’t even pause, the Demonic Qi surging, and the wall of light crumbled, gravely injuring all the Seraphim!

Veridia and Vera were both proficient in offense, not defense.

Thus, the two of them attacked with all their might.

But...

Their current strength was only at a Half-step Totem Level, not even reaching the Totem Level.

Thus, they had no impact on this Totem Two Turn Bone Demon.

With a casual strike from the Bone Demon, the two of them flew out like kites with broken strings.

At this moment, the Bone Demon spoke again:

"Human, I’m giving you one last chance! If you are willing to join the Demon Clan, not only will you and your beasts live, but I might even spare these Seraphim!"

However, the only response to him was Lazuli’s steadfast figure blocking in front of Aster Grant.

The young girl spread her arms wide to protect Aster Grant, the Guardian Law swirling in her eyes:

"My master..."

"Will never bow to anyone!"

And while Lazuli poured all her power into defense, Aster Grant immersed all his spiritual power into the depths of his consciousness.

In his spiritual sea, two dazzling Divine Patterns hovered quietly.

This was the only way he thought to break the stalemate.

Since Lazuli could awaken the power of the Divine Pattern at the Commander Level, as the Human Race’s inheritor, he should be able to do it too!

"If I fall here today, the Human Race’s legacy will be severed!"

He knew the Human Race’s Divine Patterns were special, these two Divine Patterns had already developed their own intelligence.

But...

Despite his cries, these two Divine Patterns remained unresponsive.

Seeing this, Aster Grant’s eyes began to turn blood-red.

If they wouldn’t respond, he would force them to respond.

The power of the Soul-devouring Talent instantly stained his spiritual sea red, the violent spiritual power surged like a tsunami:

"Awaken immediately! Otherwise—let’s perish together!"

Under this threat, the two Divine Patterns finally began to tremble violently!

At the same time.

The Bone Demon’s sharp claws easily tore through Lazuli’s Guardian Law, and having previously used Divine Protection, she could no longer withstand it.

"Pfff—!!"

Accompanied by a heart-wrenching tearing sound, the bone-white claw pierced straight through Lazuli’s chest!
