Chapter 745 - Smiling Demon

Without wasting any time, Izroth deactivated the Reign of Oblivion and accessed his inventory. He removed a High-Grade Healing Potion and consumed it to restore a portion of his lost HP as he looked down at Enigma's motionless body.

"What an unfortunate soul. With the ability bestowed upon him, even someone in the early stages of the legendary realm would find it difficult to claim his life. It's just that having me as his opponent—how can it not be seen as a misfortune?" Izroth inwardly shook his head.

Izroth was not merely openly boasting about his skills. In truth, Izroth could be seen as the bane of Enigma's existence!

Just by having achieved a basic understanding of the Law of Causality, Izroth had effectively rendered Enigma's False Phenomenon useless upon realizing its true nature as a pale imitation. Even Enigma's so-called trump card was completely disregarded! But, it had nothing to do with Izroth controlling the Law of Causality.

Izroth skimmed through the battle logs and promptly found what he was searching for.

'So, it also has this kind of ability—how resourceful.'

〈Battle Alert: An unknown force is attempting to seal your power!〉

〈Battle Alert: The skill «The Unbounded One» has activated!〉

〈Battle Alert: The effects of «False Phenomenon: Rewrite of Fates» has been nullified!〉

The moment Izroth saw the change in energy around Enigma, he activated the Eruption effect attached to his Scorched Inferno Fang spear. With Enigma under the influence of the Burn effect, the initial damage he received from Izroth's Eruption was doubled.

Normally, this should have been enough to kill Enigma two to three times over. However, Izroth was uncertain whether or not it would be enough to completely suppress Enigma, who had access to divine power and a lower form of the Law of Causality. Therefore, Izroth decided not to take any chances. And, as it turned out, he was correct for doing so.

Enigma survived the Eruption and even managed to break free from its crowd control. But, just as he was about to escape, Enigma was met with Izroth's spear which was not only empowered by the Reign of Oblivion but also the essence he poured into it.

If Enigma had kept his guard up, he may have been able to evade the blow or maybe even adjust his position to avoid a critical hit. But, Enigma had placed too much trust in the ability granted to him by the God of Disharmony. Because of this, Enigma did not fathom that Izroth would be able to ignore the sealing effects of his False Phenomenon: Rewrite of Fates. In his mind, it was inconceivable. This ultimately led to his demise.

Izroth closed out his system interface and limited the range of his Energy Vision Sense in order to conserve his essence.

Izroth's gaze turned to the sky where Empyrean and the Head of Siren, Smiling Demon, were locked in battle; however, Izroth did not immediately rush over and decided to wait for his health to fully recover.

As he waited, Izroth found himself pondering about The Unbounded One.

'Unbound by all under the firmament... It's a broad skill description that covers numerous areas. I should find a way to test its limits.'

Since The Unbounded One evolved from the skill Breaker of Limits, Izroth figured that it would hold the same effects. Of course, he expected The Unbounded One to be a more amplified version of Breaker of Limits that would ultimately allow him to tread further along his path. However, he did not think that it would be capable of nullifying a skill that benefited directly from divine power!

Several seconds quickly passed as Izroth received the set of system alerts he had been waiting for.

〈System Alert: The effects of «Breath of the Great Sea» have been activated!〉

〈System Alert: Your HP and MP regeneration has increased by 200%!〉

'It finally kicked in.'

Izroth felt a refreshing wave of vitality fill his body as the skill took effect.

Breath of the Great Sea was the skill Izroth acquired after clearing the Final Phase of the Great Sea Palace on the Hardcore difficulty.

One of the passives it granted him made it so that when Izroth was out of combat for more than thirty seconds, he would obtain a huge boost to his HP and MP regeneration.

With the help of the potion he consumed beforehand and the regeneration boost from the Breath of the Great Sea, it was not long before Izroth made a full recovery.

'Azalea still has not checked in which means that it is likely she has been confronted by the Left Hand of Siren.'

Izroth returned the Scorched Inferno Fang to his inventory and unsheathed the Sword of the Storm. He then kicked off the ground and employed Sky Steps as he soared into the sky.

'If possible, I would like to avoid using the Relic of the First Tal here since it only has three charges. But, if it comes to it, then I will not hesitate. I am still unsure of its abilities; however, seeing as how it is an SSS-rank magic item with a limited number of usages, it cannot be weak. I must admit, I am a little curious in regards to the phantom's strength.'

If the phantom was even half as powerful as the Tal'Nis Izroth faced during the crusade, then someone like Smiling Demon who was still at the initial stage of the legendary realm would not stand a chance!

...

A few moments ago in the skies above Siren's main headquarters...

Constant whispers and murmurs could be heard in the sky that gave off an eerie feeling and made one uneasy.

These strange sounds came from behind Smiling Demon, or more precisely, from the bizarre figure lurking at his back.

It was a shadowy figure approximately 1.5 meters in length. It possessed no limbs and its sole facial feature was its soulless dark blue eyes.

If one looked closely into its eyes, they would see a myriad of spirits and specters crying as if their soul was trapped in a state of perpetual damnation.

"Ignorant child, it's still not too late. If you are willing to work under me and take me as your master, I am willing to overlook the fact that you have dared to raise a hand against my Siren organization." Smiling Demon declared.

Smiling Demon had already exchanged a few blows with Empyrean and found that their defenses were abnormal. He was positive that Empyrean was not in the legendary realm, but his natural defenses alone made it hard to believe that was truly the case.

In addition, the magic Empyrean used and exuded was something that could only be seen as a gift from the heavens. This led Smiling Demon to take a small step back and view this situation as an opportunity.

"If I take this child as my disciple, forget a small Siren organization. In the future, I will become a high-ranking executive in the League of the Eidolon!" Smiling Demon internalized as a look of greed flashed through his eyes.

"Master...?" Empyrean uttered with an indifferent expression on his face.

"That's right! I am willing to take you under my wing and give you an abundance of resources. I guarantee that in less than two years, you will step into the legendary realm and-"

"You... Are not worthy." Empyrean said without even waiting for Smiling Demon to finish speaking.

For some reason, those were the first words that came to Empyrean's mind and he spoke them without a second thought.

The idea of serving under another person, especially one like Smiling Demon, made Empyrean feel uncomfortable to a point of almost being disturbed by the mere thought. This was a new emotion for him.

Smiling Demon fell silent. Not worthy? He, who had stepped onto a path others could only dream of, was not worthy?

"Audacious child! Do not mistake my kindness for weakness!" Smiling Demon's voice exploded as the killing intent around him resurged!

At the same time, the whispers coming from the shadow figure behind Smiling Demon started to grow increasingly loud.

"Prey upon the souls of the obliged, Murmur!" Smiling Demon roared.

Swoosh!

Suddenly, the shadow launched out from Smiling Demon's back and shot into the air.

Then, as the whispers grew louder, tens upon tens of spatial portals opened in the sky as the air filled with the battle cries of vicious beasts.

RAAAAAWR!!!! SHRIEEEEK!

In the blink of an eye, the sky was filled with more than one hundred demonic beasts in shadow forms that released ear-piercing howls.

Without hesitation, the demonic beasts swarmed towards Empyrean's position!
