267 Henry, Why Did You Betray Us?
"Zelphar!" Pyria screamed worriedly when Ace's clone suddenly appeared next to Zelphar.
Zelphar, who noticed Ace's clone, instantly blocked the attack with his left arm and put some distance between them.
He could not avoid it, so he sacrificed his left arm because he would die if he did not block it.
*Slash…
Zelphar's left arm fell to the ground.
Pyria jumped closer to Zelphar and inquired, "Zelphar, go back and treat your injuries."
"It's fine." Zelphar used one of his skills to stop the bleeding.
'He has cut off my left arm, so I won't back down.'
Blood for blood.
Because Ace had cut off his left arm, he wanted to cut off Ace's arms too.
No!
He wanted to do more than that.
He wanted to kill Ace!
He would not leave or stop before his wish was achieved because his heart would not be at peace if he did not cut off Ace's arms.
"We will help you kill this human." Vrogurk and his two brothers said in unison.
"I will help too." Vianola added.
If previously it was three versus one, now it was seven versus one.
Even though he was ganging up by seven 3-star mythical creatures, Ace did not panic. He even looked at them with a calm face as if he was facing weaklings.
"KILL HIM!" after saying that, Vrogurk dashed toward Ace.
His brothers and other magical beasts also rushed toward him. Of course, they knew they were acting cowardly, but they did not care about it.
As long as they could kill Ace, they would do anything, including ganging up on him.
*Clink…Clank…Cling…
The sound of weapons clashing reverberated in the entire area.
Zelphar and the others attacked Ace continuously.
They attacked him from all directions and with their powerful skills.
However, Ace could avoid and block their attacks easily.
He did not even seem to be having trouble because his breathing was still normal.
As Ace was fighting against seven 3-star mythical creatures, Scarlett was shooting magical beasts with her bow and observing the war.
She was still standing on the wall because she needed to pay attention to their enemies and her people at the same time.
"All archers focus on killing the magical beasts in the sky first." Scarlett spoke as she shot the magical beasts flying in the sky. "Colonel Louie, help captain Noah kill that 3-star magical beast."
"Understood." After saying that, Colonel Louie dashed to the southwest area.
She stopped shooting magical beasts and swept her gaze around.
'Ace is fighting against seven 3-star mythical creatures. We have to use this opportunity to kill as many magical beasts as possible.'
She was not worried about his safety because she believed in Ace.
Ace was already at the Grandmaster rank, and he was also an Aeris, so she was sure these magical beasts were not his opponents.
"City mistress, what about me?" Allan inquired.
"Take all your subordinates and kill one 3-star magical beast as quickly as possible." Allan had three subordinates at Master rank, so she gave him an important task.
"Understood." Allan responded before finally leaping down the wall.
"Dezmavas, when are we going to make our move? We will lose a lot of troops if we just stand here." Henry could not calm down when he saw Scarlett and her people killing Dezmavas' subordinates.
"Be patient. Everything is still under my control." Dezmavas said calmly. "I will let them be happy first. After that, I will show them what terror is. Kekeke."
"I don't care. I will kill them now." Henry had betrayed Scarlett and the others, so he had to ensure they would win the war. "Liam, let's go."
"Everyone, follow our lord." Liam shouted before finally following Henry.
When he saw Henry stepping onto the battlefield, Dezmavas uttered, "Don't die, Henry. Otherwise, you won't be able to torture them later."
Henry ignored Dezmavas and kept walking.
'A beast is still a beast.'
Dezmavas was a stupid beast in his eyes because Dezmavas let Scarlett and her people kill his subordinates.
"It's Henry!"
"Kill him!
"He is a traitor. Kill him!"
Scarlett's subordinates rushed toward Henry when they caught sight of him.
Henry had betrayed them, so they wanted to kill him so badly.
However, it was challenging to get closer to him because many magical beasts were attacking them non-stop.
"Move damn beast! I want to kill that traitor."
"Henry, come here if you are a man."
"Henry, you traitor. I will kill you!"
"Traitor, come and fight me if you dare!"
Scarlett's subordinates tried their best to get closer to Henry.
But like before, their efforts were in vain because several magical beasts stopped them from getting closer to him.
"What?! You weaklings want to kill me? Then let me show you the difference between us." a blue sphere of liquid hovered in front of his staff as Henry cast a magic spell.
The orb of water moved in a spiral before finally creating ten tiny water orbs and flew toward Scarlett's subordinates.
Water Bullet!
Henry used Water Bullet magic to attack them because he wanted to show them that they were not on the same level.
Bang!
One by one, the city guards fell to the ground and died.
They could not block or avoid his attack, but it was too fast for them.
"You even can't block my magic and you want to kill me?" Henry sneered. "Weaklings always talk a lot."
"HENRYYYY!" Aron, the head of the Olson family, rushed toward Henry with an angry face.
He really hated magical beasts because they killed his family, so his hatred toward Henry was so big because Henry betrayed them and cooperated with magical beasts.
Henry turned his head toward the source of the sound. "Aron?"
"Protect our lord!" after saying that, Liam stood in front of Henry.
Not only Liam but all of his subordinates stood before him. Aron was one of the strongest awakeners in their city, so they could not underestimate him.
*Slash…Slash…Slash…
Several magical beasts attacked Aron continuously.
However, they could not stop him because Aron was an awakener at Master rank, while these magical beasts were only at 1-star and 2-star.
"Why did you betray us, Henry?" after saying that, Aron swung his spear, sending a huge wave of energy at Henry.
Liam and the others immediately placed their weapons before them, ready to block Aron's attack.
However, a huge earth wall emerged from the ground before Aron's attack hit Liam and the others.
The earth wall blocked Aron's attack before finally breaking into pieces.
"Fire Phoenix." Henry used his magic to attack Aron.
Even though they used to be friends, he did not show the slightest bit of mercy because they were enemies now.
And actually, Henry also hated Aron because Aron stopped him when he tried to kill Ace in the arena several days ago.
That was why he used one of his strongest magic to attack Aron.
Dezmavas, who saw Henry and Aron, smirked.
'I like this kind of sight.'
He liked it when he saw two friends fighting each other.
'Hmm?'
He shifted his gaze from Henry to Ace.
'He is beating up my subordinates.'
He saw Ace beating up Pyria and the others.
He walked forward and uttered, "It seems like it's my time to make a move. Who should I kill first?"
