Supreme Monarch-Chapter 272 C272. Considerate

—Back in the Greyad Plains on the outskirts of the Darknar forest.

??

Azalea stood in the air frozen in place. His last attack had contained almost all of his immensely vast energy and yet, he could not keep the embodiment of death down for the count as it had got back up as though nothing had happened.

Seeing his most powerful attack being shrugged off as though it meant nothing, his mind broke as he could no longer resist his fate. However, perhaps it was because of his pride as a Devil Lord or maybe his ego, but he suddenly felt a burst of rage boiling from deep m within him, how could he— the great Arch Devil Azalea— how could he just accept this fate like a weakling.

Impossible! There was no way he could allow such disgrace.

[You absolute Bastards! Even if I can't win this time, I refuse to lose here! If I die, I'm taking everyone with me!]

?Annihilation Exploding Wave?

With a renewed determination to take everyone here with him, Azalea began releasing all the energy left within him while also burning through his very own soul energy.

Due to the Sword of Destruction draining most of his powers, he had very little energy left but could still gather enough force by burning his soul to annihilate everything within this region.

However, his body would no longer listen to his commands as he heard someone speak in front of him—

"Well then, I suppose this as good a time as any to make my grand entrance. Sup, Ty has entered the battle."

"All hail the master."

*Clap clap clap clap!...

"Stop that, you're ruining my cool entrance."

Suddenly hearing those strange voices that did not sound like they were on a battlefield, Azalea hesitantly raised his head out of curiosity and saw two strange figures floating in the air next to the massive figure of the Grim Reaper.

His mind was suddenly clouded as a terrifying and eerily familiar presence invaded deep within his core and a fear he had only felt once in his life completely paralyzed him.

Unable to move even a finger from fear, he hesitantly tried to locate the source of this feeling as he took a better look at the pair that had just arrived on the battlefield.

One of them was a male with short black hair cut in a fade and wearing a reddish grey long coat, white shirt, and grey pants with black boats.

Each article of clothing gave off a faint aura that told him they were all magic items even if not all of them were of a high rank.

The second figure was a female with pale red skin and two curved horns protruding from her head as she donned a mischievous smile on her beautiful face all the while staring straight at him, the light in her eyes sparkling as though she had just found a long lost friend (or servant, who knows.) 𝘧𝒓e𝑒𝑤e𝙗𝚗o𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝐜𝐨ｍ

*Badum!

For some reason, he could not sense any aura or even the presence of the male as it felt as though he was just an ordinary human yet he knew in his heart that the very idea was ludicrous.

However, the female exuded a wild and chaotic aura that paralyzed him to the core and was eerily familiar and trying to remember why that was made his skin crawl.

For a moment, he had even failed to comprehend what was happening as even the Grim Reaper had paused in its attack.

Naturally, its orders were to destroy all demigods in the area and it didn't matter who they were as long as they had a pulse. It would attack any living demigod closest to it and now, those closest to it were the two strangers that had just arrived.

"Lord Ty please be careful!"

Sensing the Grim Reaper switch targets, Erin mustered up her courage to warn him as he simply shifted his gaze to glance at her and smiled faintly.

'Lord Ty? Is that the one?'

Hearing that name again, Azalea made an educated guess as he focused his gaze on the unremarkable young man who was the target of the Grim Reaper's attack.

-Death Slicer-

Casually tearing through the fabric of reality once more, the Grim Reaper's blade drew a fine arc across the sky as it swung at them.

However, the main target of his attack had suddenly vanished as the female with him raised her index finger and extended her nails, and to everyone's surprise, the Grim Reaper's reality slicing attack was completed stopped by her fingernail.

'She stopped it! Don't tell me that's? No way, no way!'

Seeing the familiar features on the smiling lady who was definitely eyeing him, Azalea desperately denied reality as he just wanted everything to be a lie.

"Hahahahahaha... you've grown since the last time I saw you kid. Now you're even acting like a big shot. Moloc is disappointed. I suppose I have to re-educate you don't I? Hehe."

As Azalea heard those words, there was no longer any doubt in his mind as only one person in existence could and would address him in that way. Countless images began to flood his mind as the dominating image of a Devil laughing at him resurfaced and his mind went numb.

'Why... why is he here!? I'm doomed!'

??????????

As Azalea's thoughts ran wild, Tyler had already appeared in front of Erin and Emrys as he smiled gently and spoke to them.

"Hey, seems like you're both doing alright. I'm glad."

"Lord Ty, you came. I apologize for making you worry about us."

As Erin apologized to him for some reason, Emrys had already gotten on one knee in the presence of his master and awaited orders without a word.

"Why are you apologizing, you did nothing wrong. We just had no idea the undead king could summon such a creature. It's a good thing we got to see it this early thanks to all your efforts."

Moving closer to Erin who had lowered her head, Tyler patted her head gently as he gave his instructions.

"You both have already completed your mission splendidly and I'll be sure to reward you at a later date, but for now, you may head back to the castle to rest."

"No, you don't have to do that."

"Nonsense. I insist. Also, I noticed you created a new spell, that's interesting, you should go check up on your creations soon. I'll hear about the details later."

Hearing Erin tries to reject her reward timidly, Tyler quickly shut her down as he insisted on it. He also remembered the creation of the ten water spirits and mentioned it.

From what Uriel had explained to him at the time, it seems she had created a spell on the spot which was apparently something he could easily do if he had asked but of course that didn't cross his mind.

The creation of née spells was very difficult and relied on one understanding of the foundations of Magic and understanding of Magic runes followed by the comprehensive knowledge of the law of the universe as Magic fundamentally alters those laws.

However, Uriel was an artificial intelligence with World divination and a processing speed faster than time itself. She had access to all know knowledge in this world and could analyze and calculate anything before even the smallest unit of time had passed.

As long as he gave her parameters within the level of his own understanding of Magic runes, she could construct and create new spells for him using those parameters.

The reason her knowledge one Magic runes did not surpass him was that Magic runes were the essence of the universe and that hidden knowledge. It was why the only place in this world that had the complete collection of them was the Void Library.

"My creations? Right. I apologize for sending them to the labyrinth without seeking your permission."

"What do you mean, you had my permission else you would not be able to do that."

Realizing that entrance to the castle and even the labyrinth was impossible for anyone that wasn't her or directly connected to her source besides Tyler, Erin understood that she had only been able to send her Hydriads back there because Tyler had allowed it.

"Oh right. I'm sorry I seem to be distracted lately."

"That's okay, doing something against your nature to the brimstones must've been hard on you. Do forgive me for that."

"Oh, no way! I didn't mean that."

"Please don't worry about it. As for Emrys."

Tyler noticed that his conversation with Erin was dragging on too long and quickly ended it by turning his head to face Emrys who replied to his name with reverence.

,m "Yes, master."

"Please transport everyone back to their assigned locations. I'll handle the rest from here onwards."

"As you command."

After giving them his instructions, Tyler took a step back as Erin's body turned watery then transparent before she completely disappeared.

A portal gate then opened behind Emrys as he moved to retrieve the hobgoblins and ogres from scattered across the various battlefields.

Z should've led the recovery of any useful items as well as the capturing of those demigods left alive. As he had spatial teleportation as well, he could move freely between the castle and the battlefield thanks to Uriel handing the barrier.

He then imprison those left alive albeit barely and also the corpses of the dead after placing a spiritual barrier on them to prevent the escape of their souls. f𝗿𝗲e𝒘e𝚋ｎ૦𝘃𝙚𝑙.com

With that, even their bodies would prove useful in gaining more information on the Great Five by directly asking the soul.

The moment the portal gate closed behind Emrys, Tyler sighed as he then turned his head to face the massive figure of what could only be described as death itself.

The massive illusionary figure that oozed an eerily creepy aura that would normally give even Tyler the chill, was currently engaged in a fierce battle against Moloc.

Well, perhaps fierce was not the right word to use I. This instance as all he saw was the Grim Reaper aggressively attacking Moloc with its death scythe only for Moloc to just stand there casually deflected the creature's reality slicing attacks with only the tip of her index fingernail.

She shouldn't have recovered her strength completely yet and should barely be at the level of a 7th Tier demigod, yet she almost outmatched a creature that had given that full-powered Devil a run for his money.

How scary would she be if she was at full power now that she had a physical body?

'I really need to get stronger don't I?'

Tyler thought as he smiled faintly at the battle, his eyes caught the male Devil whose mouth was current agape as he stared simply at Moloc's enticing figure.

'If I didn't know any better, which I don't actually I didn't know why I started my thoughts with that. Anyway, I'll say Moloc was trying to show off. Is that Devil her friend? I guess I shouldn't kill him by mistake then.'

Tyler concluded that Azalea was Moloc's friend from the underworld as he was completely oblivious to the terror residing in his eyes as tears began to form and his entire body ran cold.

[Sigh... such a beautiful friendship, kukuku.]

'So you think so too Uriel. I should help them reunite them.'

[Master is very considerate.]

'I know right? A good ruler should be considerate.'
