Demon King: Hero, don't run away!-Chapter 425: Quick, Hand That Thing Over to Me

Kenro used Spiritual Bodies to conduct large-scale surveillance and could easily find their whereabouts. With the help of Spiritual Bodies, Kenro moved extremely fast, and no matter how they tried to escape, they would be caught up to. Under such circumstances, they had no choice but to fight.

The signal had been sent, and they had found the trail of their escape. Yang Yu and Gordon should easily locate them.

Lotcar’s entire body bristled and instantly grew larger.

Pulling Bai Jin along, Iyas arrived at an open area. She swiftly drew her bow, and an arrow made of light formed between the strings of her bow.

Iyas knew that Kenro’s strength was opposed to her own Holy Light. Whether she could use her Holy Light effectively was the key to defeating Kenro.

After pondering, Iyas used her most stable combos: "Light Arrow," "Guaranteed Hit Arrow," and "Hunter Mark." An arrow made of light streaked across the sky and disappeared suddenly without any warning.

Using only Spiritual Bodies as his vision, Kenro could see many things that ordinary people couldn’t.

Countless Spiritual Bodies formed a column over a meter tall in front of Kenro. Iyas’s Light Arrow had not yet materialized when it pierced into the column.

The Spiritual Bodies forming the column immediately became somewhat fragmented and incomplete, suffering various degrees of damage, but they did not disappear. Instead, they sank into the Black Group beneath Kenro’s feet.

They would recover after a period of time and become a combat force again.

Damaging some of the Spiritual Bodies would momentarily reduce his strength, but as long as his body was unharmed, all was well.

Iyas never expected Kenro to dodge her combo in that manner, so she could only swiftly draw her bow and arrow to attack Kenro again. However, without the blessing of Holy Light, why would Kenro fear her attacks?

A black hand again abruptly extended from the Black Group beneath Kenro’s feet, intercepting several of Iyas’s shots.

Bai Jin waved her Magic Wand, alternating between "Frost Ice Arrow" and "Fireball Technique" in rapid succession, trying to find a breakthrough with intensive attacks. However, these attacks pattered like rain on the newly-formed Shield by Kenro’s Spiritual Bodies.

Taking advantage of Bai Jin’s attack, Lotcar used his speed to circle behind Kenro, and red claws extended from his front paws. freewebnσvel.cøm

Just as the sharp claws were about to touch Kenro’s back, countless black Spiritual Bodies once again sprang from Kenro’s Black Group, forming a black Shield. Lotcar’s red claws snapped off with a sound and dissolved into a pale red Magical Power.

Two black Shields floated mid-air, Kenro’s right leg moved through the Shield behind him, delivering a spinning kick that hit Lotcar’s face.

Lotcar staggered back several steps, his brain briefly went blank, and by the time he regained his composure and looked at Kenro again, the black Shields had melted like candles, dripping into the Black Group below Kenro. Then, more black hands fiercely extended from the Black Group, rushing toward Bai Jin.

Putting down her bow and arrow, Iyas grabbed Bai Jin’s shoulders, rolled over, and dodged the black hands’ multiple attacks, causing them to plunge into the ground.

But the attacks from the black hands didn’t stop. Countless black hands followed as Kenro took a stroll, sweeping toward Bai Jin and Iyas like a storm.

"’Sacred Ripples’"

When the black hands got close enough, wanting to entirely envelop Bai Jin and Iyas, an extremely holy light emitted from Iyas’s body. As the black Spiritual Bodies touched the light, it was like they touched a hot potato, and they immediately recoiled.

Beneath Kenro’s mask, his expression showed displeasure, "Again? Truly an irksome Skill. You and the Holy Maiden of the Goddess Sect are sure to become stumbling blocks in our path, and I should deal with you right now."

As a member of the Curse Sect, which detested the Goddess Sect, Kenro had some understanding of the Holy Light System’s Skills and had developed specific strategies against them.

His strategy was simple; he would take advantage of the gaps when others were using their Skills and thoroughly crush them without mercy. That way, they would never be able to launch any Attack again.

The moment the Holy Light faded, Kenro, controlling numerous black arms, launched an Attack towards Iyas. Lotcar charged forward at full Speed limb swinging, but it was still not fast enough.

Just then, a grey sphere slowly emerged in Bai Jin’s hands as she gradually lifted it above her head.

Unknown runes started to sparkle atop the grey sphere, and suddenly, a circular red spot appeared in its center, like someone had fiercely struck a frosted circular lake with a hammer, resulting in countless cracks spreading from the red spot.

Red seeped from the cracks, and the interior of the grey sphere, segmented by the cracks, transformed from a pale grey to a deep navy blue.

The moment this object appeared, the Spiritual Body arms controlled by Kenro significantly slowed.

Taking this opportunity, Lotcar charged forth with all his might to Strike a deadly blow on Kenro. However, a large Spiritual Body emerged from the Black Group beneath Kenro’s feet, even the wounded Spiritual Body amalgamated into a gigantic arm that swatted Lotcar against the trunk of a large tree like a fly.

Lotcar attempted to push himself up again, but the shattered ribs sharply pained his nerves, and standing alone was almost unbearable.

Looking at the sphere firmly held in Bai Jin’s hands, Kenro could not suppress his excitement and spread his arms wide,

"Indeed, this thing is in your hands!

What a good child. Hand that thing over to me, and I promise to spare your lives.

Hurry up, hurry up and hand that thing to me."

Bai Jin clutched the object, the size of a ping-pong ball, tightly in her hands, "I can hand this over to you, provided that you can truly guarantee our safety and answer some of my questions."

An unmistakable look of impatience appeared on Kenro’s face; he really wanted to retort, "Do you think you still have any right to negotiate? You have no escape; hand over the thing quickly so I can end this painlessly," but instead, Kenro noticed Bai Jin’s raised palm tightly gripping the sphere, a Magic Array faintly visible within.

The instructions Kenro had received from the Sect were to arrest the traitor’s daughter if possible and only eliminate her completely as a last resort.

All actions were to prioritize the safety of that object.

For over ten years since the traitor’s disappearance, Kenro and his people had been searching for that object, but had barely received any leads.

The fact that the traitor could rise to the position of bishop, gaining favor from the Pope, proved he had considerable Skill.

His ability to hide that object flawlessly for more than a decade showed how meticulous he was in his planning.

Had his daughter not accidentally revealed that object, they likely would have never found any clues about it.

Being cautious, he would certainly have made some safeguards on the object and his daughter; attacking forcefully might trigger some kind of protection mechanism.
