Chapter 38: Chapter 38: Alpha’s miscalculation
" Quite shocking isn’t it? to think you really defeated that monstrosity, I guess you weren’t just bragging " the voice of Jasmine was heard, she walked into the scene, with a smile plastered on her lips.
Riley tilted his gaze, he noticed the approaching soldiers.
Soldiers of the Guardians followed Jasmine as she stayed in front, leading the troops forward, they watched the brazen battle from afar, with the conclusion that Riley would have been crushed in a bizzare manner.
Seeing Riley unfazed while the monster stayed dead came as a shock to them.
" You guys arrived on late, you should seen my execution phase, not that it matters now " Riley said, his eyes quickly, returning his gaze back towards the unearthly power released against their world.
" It looks like the young master will be owing this kid ten million dollars right? if a brat like him could defeat that monster, I doubt we would have to stress ourselves to kill it " one of the soldiers bragged.
Johan Kirk...the tank of the party.
" Yh, we shouldn’t have let ten million dollars waste when we could....." Another soldier was about to complete his statement when he got interuppted by the Young Master Joel.
Silence reigned, his footsteps drew closer and a path was cleared for him, the Young Master advanced forward, approaching the direction where Riley stood unbothered by anyone.
" That’s enough talking you guys, complaining would only make me look weak, I made a deal and It’s my duty to fulfill the end of the deal, giving him ten million dollars is not compared to the lives spared "
Young Master Joel stated.
" Compared to the lives spared? what lives spared? young master Joel, if this brat could kill that monster, we could definitely kill it without even breaking a sweat, we are levels higher than this brat " Johan bragged.
" Hmph...are you so certain about that? there’s always a saying, don’t judge a book by its cover, what I did was use a clever tactic, if we had fought that thing....despite our numbers, a lot of us would have died "
" Anzerath soldiers got wasted remember? even Mr. Ford died not too long ago, I couldn’t take any risk " Young Master Joel explained.
" So you chose to make use of me huh? you knew I had some strength hidden in me and you needed to make use of it, if I succeeded....you will simply be giving out ten million dollars, but if failed "
" I would have weakened that thing enough for you to deal a striking blow that would finish it off, isn’t that correct? " Riley questioned.
" He-he-he-he-he, well that’s true.....the world ain’t fair, people as worthless as you are often being used and tossed around, you’re lucky I will be giving you ten million dollars but that’s for later "
" What we should be focusing on now is this thing " Young Master Joel uttered.
He raised his head..... staring directly at the darkness which engulfed the entirety of Chicago, waves of death filled the air, the overflowing mana wasn’t radiative but something far more ominous.
" Any ideas? " Young Master Joel asked.
" Nah, I’m shocked as you are...but one thing is certain, I can feel it...things won’t end well, we need to leave " Riley said, he caused his sniper rifle to vanish, and his AR-15 assasult rifle appeared on his hand.
" Leave to where exactly? whatever this thing is.....It’s currently trapping us, I’ve used my Talent to navigate this city, there’s no escape zone " Jasmine explained, she possesses a rare spatial type Talent.
Informations regarding her Talent is kept hidden from everyone.
" There’s always an escape zone.....we just have to create one, if there’s a strong wall stopping us from moving forward, we just need to break that wall and move forward "
Riley said, he turned to leave when Young Master Joel held his back, he grabbed Riley by the arm, stopping him on his track when a rift appeared in space itself, drawing their attentions towards this power.
[Meanwhile]
Alpha stared at the sky with a perplexed written on her face, she had casted the Fyr Ritual as a means to restrict the Mogorth but she miscalculated something, she could feel the unnatural drawing closer.
Zaine’s eyes squinted.....she felt it.
" Alpha, what’s happening? " She questioned.
Alpha remained silent, she bent down.... placing her right knee on the ground when she touched the ground, she felt it, the rift occuring in reality itself, the imbalance which her spell had incite, a sigh was heard.
" I miscalculated " Alpha answered.
" You miscalculated? what exactly are you talking about? wasn’t this spell necessary to the restrictions of Mogorths? a seal banning the entry of other Mogorths from trespassing while restricting the black eyed "
" What in the hell is happening? " Zaine asked once again, Myzel watched everything unfold, she could barely understand what was happening, anything that doesn’t involve her husband doesn’t matter to her.
" Be calm Zaine.....the spell I used to initiate the Fyr Ritual was the necessary one but what I meant by my miscalculation is the fact that this dimension is too weak, unlike the dragon realm which you belong to "
" Or the Amazon which I once existed in "
" This is a weak dimension, It’s inability to contain the content of the spell I casted resulted in this catastrophe, the effects of the spell, the restrictions has been initiated and the black eyed will be weakened "
" But the after effects is the main issue "
" A rift between worlds has occured, with other dimensional aspects gaining entry into this world especially Hell...in exchange for sealing the Mogorths, I brought into this world creatures of the damned "
" Demons of Hell! "
Alpha explained, Myzel listening to this couldn’t help but grin, a rift occured right before them, distorted screeches echoed, emerging from the rifts were humaniod creatures, different from the mana monsters.
This were demons.
Lesser demons to be specific.
Their inability to speak was a proof of how low they were in the demon realm, bloodthirsty and savage, they charged forward against the three wives, Myzel caused a frozen battle axe to appear on her hand.
She took a step forward, swinging down her axe....she cut down demons in half, their bloods covered the air, a dark grin appeared on the lips of Myzel, savouring the warm feelings of bloodshed.
" Alpha.....can you put an end to this? " Zaine questioned.
" What has happened has already happened, what I can do is shrink the size of the rifts permanently, blocking the paths of higher demons from crossing over into this world, but the gates has opened "
" And there’s no closing it "
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
" Hmph.....It looks like I’ll be requesting overtime pay, what the hell is this? " Riley questioned, shocked to see dozens of rifts occurring and demons surging out of this rifts, creatures of the damned.
Lesser demons came charging in against them.
Scattered across the scene, Riley positioned himself, he opened fire against the demons, his bullets amplified by the Hytraxx Mark kept reducing the numbers of the demons.
Young Master Joel took a step forward.
" We came here for a reason, to take out the trespasser.....that was our only mission, now that the trespassers are gone, this isn’t our job to handle.....contact the J-T center and contact the Guardians HQ as well "
" Its just as Riley said..... Things won’t be ending well for us if we stay here any longer "
" We need to leave "
