The Archangel of Death - Chapter 293
293: The theif 293: The theif Chapter 293 > The name of the sword will be changed to the ‘Cursed Sword of Insanity’ < ~~ Boom!!!
As the ground and the surroundings shook due to the exchange of two rowdy people up above in the sky, a black-haired girl was instead eyeing something else.
Her eyes were fixed on the divine ranked sword which, among all the chaos, was lying unattended on the raised platform.
The image of the divine-ranked sword and the power it exuded even to that point was something that no one could ignore if not for the chaotic surroundings.
"I would reconsider if I were you," The disguised Celandine, whose eyes were fixed on the sword, flinched when she heard a cold voice right next to her.
She hurriedly turned and jumped back but the owner of the voice, an older looking buff and tall man draped in silver white shining armor, remained in his spot.
"So you knew of our move?" Celandine asked, her eyes glowing slightly.
As her eyes continued to glow, Bayern looked at her cautiously.
Nevertheless, he was confident a little girl like her, even if she was hella strong for her age, wouldn't be able to do much against him even if there were five of her.
"Of course, we can predict that much," Bayern replied.
"Even without that oracle of yours?" Celandine asked with a smirk.
The smile on Bayern's face stiffened as he heard that.
The boy who could see the future.
Such a boy was recently killed by the fifth prince after it was found out that he was trying to kill the holy saint.
The sacrifice wasn't something priceless and when it came to someone who could look slightly into the future, and the holy saint, then the choice was obvious.
Still, it was a loss that the empire would have rather not sustained.
The cause of Bayern's displeasure was obvious.
He wasn't thrilled about this taunt.
Also, the reason why it worked as he pulled his sword out.
Not a divine-ranked weapon but close enough.
His sword was shining just like his armor.
He took a step forward, his steps, despite his heavy armor, silent as the gentle wind.
The power emitting from him wasn't overbearing as well.
In fact, there was barely anything.
Yet, the pressure Celandine felt was something that shook her down to her core.
It was true that she was strong but she was nowhere strong enough to deal with this opponent on her own.
She touched the bracelet on her wrist.
Taking the sword was impossible from the looks of it.
However, not getting caught was just as important as well because once she was caught, she had no doubt the empire would be able to make her spill everything about their plan.
Getting the sword was important: she knew, but getting out of there without getting caught was just as important and she wasn't going to take a risk.
Just as she was about to input her mana into that bracelet that was her ticket out of there.
Boommm!!!!
An explosion as if the sky itself had torn apart.
"Kya!!!" Celandine screamed as she was blown away by the sheer pressure of the explosion and crashed into the stage where the divine weapon was.
The stage collapsed and the sword fell next to her.
It was her chance to take it but Bayern was a step faster.
He appeared before her, his sword raised and he slashed, the trajectory of the sword targeting her legs.
She would definitely lose her legs and even the artifact wasn't fully activated yet.
She hugged the sword, her eyes closed as she could only wait for the imminent pain but it never came for the next three seconds.
When she opened her eyes though, she wished she never did because inches away from her was the face of the old man, contorted in pain as something struck him in the back and pushed him to Celandine.
She tried to move out of the way but it was too late even with her enormous power.
She, Bayern, and the newcomer crashed into the wall behind the stage.
She sustained great injuries while Bayern was just lightheaded.
But that lightheadedness was all she needed.
She quickly input all of her mana into the bracelet but that was also when she realized something.
The sword wasn't in her hands anymore.
She hurriedly looked around because she had less than a few seconds and she saw the sword next to her.
She hurriedly reached for it, and seeing her reach for it, knowing he wouldn't be able to reach for her so he reached for the sword, Bayern also extended his hand towards the sword but he was a step too late.
Swish!
With the sword in her hands, Celandine disappeared from his view.
'Cr*p.' Bayern calmly cursed inside because he knew he was going to get an earful for that.
Well, he knew he wasn't at fault so he wouldn't be yelled at that much.
The one at fault was the certain someone who crashed into him.
Bayern turned to look at the unconscious white-haired boy who had unknowingly cost the empire a lot.
One thing was for sure.
He wasn't going to get any bonus points for this event.
~~ Celandine appeared inside a massive room, a massive dark room.
She looked around and saw a woman waiting for her with a robe in her hands.
Her clothes were incinerated as soon as she initiated the spatial teleportation.
Still, she was able to arrive without any injuries and with her objective fulfilled.
She stood up, took the robe to cover her body, and picked the sword up once again.
She held the sword and made her way to her chambers.
Once she was properly dressed, she made her way to the open court of the palace she was in.
Just like the imperial palace, the palace she was in was also made with the majority of silver-white materials, giving it all a holy look.
She made her way to the main throne room of the palace and arrived at her destination after a few minutes.
She was allowed entry and as she did, the first person her eyes fell on was the person on the throne who stood out even among the hundreds of people in the throne room.
She made her way to the throne but as she was at a certain distance, she was stopped by a man who had a sword in his hand.
He stepped in front of her and said, "That is far enough." Celandine had no qualms with that and stopped.
Instead, she looked at the young man on the throne.
Surprisingly, that young man was also the oldest there.
How old?
No one had any idea and even Celandine couldn't figure it out with her unique ability.
The young man with pale skin and dark hair looked at her with his piercing black eyes.
His gaze as if going through her very soul made Celandine gulp.
She held the sword tightly and passed it to the cardinal who was stopping her from going any further.
The man looked at the young man and after receiving a slight nod from the young man, the cardinal took the sword and with it in his hands, he made his way to the throne.
Once he was close to the young man, he knelt and perched the sword on top of his both hands.
The young man took the sword by the hilt and after a few moments, he said something that shook Celandine down to her core, "It is fake." "What?!" ~~ [How long are you going to pretend to be out?] Allison asked me while I was lying in my bed.
This time, there were none of the girls by my side because the emperor had restricted access to me.
Surely, he was going to give me an earful for what happened at the tournament.
'And that is why, my sweet Allison, I'm out,' I was going to pretend to be unconscious until things settled down a little.
After all, who knew what those old men would do?
I had an idea to get rid of their threat but for that, I at least needed contact with the outside with that guy not in the room.
[He's watching you like a hawk] 'They could have at least let a hot woman do that job.' [Even in this situation…] And the reason why I was out was because of this… The unexpected boon of this tournament.
Two birds with one stone.
[The transformation has ended] [The cursed sword of insanity will now reveal its true name and nature] [Sword of the Deranged Prince] [Grade: Estimation unavailable] [Error] [Estimation not possible due to the current limit of the current fragment] [The sword has been bound to the user] [Effects would be applied] […] […] The unexpected boon of getting the legendary sword also created a rift between the church and the empire.
Nice.
~~~~ Ignore the parts under this.
I will get rid of this later.
I cannot update it for some reason so I had to add some words to it.
Again, ignore it.
Chapter 1 "Tankers, hold it in line!" "What are the mages doing?" "Alena, buff me." "Firebolt." "Thunderbolt." "Ice lance." Multiple people on a battlefield fought what seemed to be a giant monster made of stone, a stone golem.
From the looks of it, the party was severely struggling to keep up with it.
Still, no one was hurt and they were holding it in.
In the first place, all they were doing was buying time.
The stars of the show hadn't gotten involved yet but were waiting and preparing themselves for a fierce strike that would surely grant them victory.
A blonde-haired and blonde-eyed girl chanted a spell, "May the goddess of victory be with us, CHARM OF VICTORY!" Following her spell, everyone on the battlefield felt greatly empowered.
Similarly, another man with long black flowing hair draped in a silver robe was also chanting and preparing a strike to deliver.
"May the victory be followed by the rain of thunder, LIGHTNING FALL!" Just as he finished, everyone stepped back from the golem as a strong wave of lighting fell on it.
The attackers held themselves back.
They didn't storm in even after the strike was delivered because of the remnants of the lighting tendrils, still buzzing around the area where the golem was.
However, although the strike was amazing, the golem was still alive but in the same condition as before.
It was weakened by a lot.
Just as everyone thought that was it, a man draped in fierce red armor with red hair and red eyes that contained a blaze-like feeling, jumped high up in the air at least by thirty feet, and fell on the golem with his sword in front of him.
His sword, which appeared like a sword made from red stone with a hilt of deep red color, its blade also contained hints of red color like magma, not to mention that the sword itself was scorching red from the skill that the man had applied to it after preparation.
"Enchanted blade: BLAZE STRIKE!" and his sword cleaved through the golem, like a hot knife through butter, and split the golem into two from the middle until its waist.
[The raid has ended] [You have defeated a golem lord (S)] [EXP will be divided according to the contribution] [Your level has increased] [Items will be divided according to the contribution] "YAY!!!" "WE WON!!!" "FINALLY!!!" Loud cheers on the battlefield followed the fall of the golem.
They couldn't believe that they had finally finished the raid after three consecutive losses.
The money they had to spend on this raid was in millions of dollars but they were confident that their gain would be at least tenfold.
{Lucky889: WOW!!!} {Boldprincess: The raid was a total wow} {AlwaysThristy: The raid already ended when Odin delivered the Lightning fall} {Alenaforlife: What are you saying?
Without Alena's buff, no one could have survived this} {Alena'sStalker: True!
The 'Hunting' guild lost three times before because Alena wasn't in those raids.} {CrazyforOdin: Shut up!
You damn stalker!
All Alena did was stand at a safe distance, and say a few fancy words while her brea*ts jiggled.
It was Odin who did all the work} {Alenafollower112: Don't you dare insult the divine brea*ts of goddess Alena} {Alenafancluber: She must have hers like a flat board} {Firecer556: But aren't we forgetting someone who killed the golem in the end?} {Blazelord667: That's right!
Odin's strike didn't even kill the golem.
It was Agni who delivered the last strike} {CrazyforOdin: How dare you say that?!!
All he did was deliver the last strike to a golem that was only weakened thanks to Odin.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to do anything.
All he did was stand in a corner until the end} The raid of this group was being broadcast to the entire world and in the stream chat, an intense debate was ongoing about who did the best.
"We finally killed it," Agni said as he approached Alena.
Alena was drinking a potion to replenish her stamina and mana.
Odin shortly joined them and said, "We have found the crystal.
Now we can proceed with the quest." "The guild master said we can do what we want so how about we take a break for now?
I'm sure everyone is tired." Agni suggested, seeing that although Odin appeared all right, he was also very fatigued after expensing all his power.
He wasn't doing very well himself so the suggestion was for his sake as well.
"Very well." Odin agreed with Agni and said, "We will log out for now and continue this tomorrow." Agni agreed and Alena had no qualms with a little rest.
The raid ended just like this and everyone logged out one by one.
