Chapter 1514 Drake"s Enter The Battle
-----
(Drake"s POV)
We moved as quickly as possible outside of the ruins but found that they had almost completely collapsed when the Dream Dungeon was made.
Therefore, we were unable to come back from the entrance, and I had to dig through the dungeon and open it with my authority until we finally reached the surface.
"MOVE!"
BAAAAMMM!!
With a furious roar, I pierced the ceiling and broke it, shattering the dimensional wall covering the dungeon"s ceiling. We all jumped out as the dungeon quickly regenerated itself back in seconds.
"Where are we?"
"We"re in the middle of the jungles?!"
Benladann and Miranda quickly realized we were not really close to the village, but rather farther away than we imagined.
However, that wasn"t the biggest of our worries right now.
"There"s Demonic Energy everywhere!" Emerald cried, now having learned to detect it after our fight against Pandemonium"s Body Fragment. "We have to get back! Quickly!"
"There are most likely Demons in the vicinity- No, many!" Miranda expanded her senses. "There"s a huge army of… hundreds?! What the h.e.l.l?"
"They were waiting for us to be busy to attack, b.a.s.t.a.r.ds! But what are they seeking anyways?" I asked, gripping my fists. "No, it doesn"t matter! We have to get back to the village and help everyone. Let"s go!"
"Wait, Lord Drake! What about the people we rescued? They cannot fight and…" Tyrannus stopped me.
"Right." I nodded, waving my hand as a portal to my divine realm opened. "You can seek refuge inside of my Divine Realm for now. There is a huge city inside, tell them the Dragon King sent you."
"T-Thank you so much."
"Wow, mom, look! A big city!"
"What a wondrous visage…"
"Tyrannus, dear… Are you going to keep fighting?"
Tyrannus wife walked towards her husband, the lizardman nodded confidently, his divinity aura surging from his body.
"Don"t worry about me, Nemed." Said Tyrannus smiled confidently. "We"ve all ascended into Divine Warriors after many trials. We are stronger than ever before, right, my warriors?"
"OOOOOHH!!" Both female and male warriors that were part of Tyrannus" army roared, rising their spears.
"We"ll be fine, trust your husband." He said.
"Okay.." Nemed sighed. "Please, rescue Amehia and everyone else!"
"We"ll do!" Tyrannus roared, as both kissed before his wife walked inside my Divine Realm.
With all the people we rescued and healed secured in the safety of my Divine Realm, we all leaped into action, flying into the skies as fast as we could.
It didn"t take a minute for all of us to quickly recognize the village several kilometers from where we were, a huge dome of crimson energy and shadows was protecting it.
Surrounding it, there was a gigantic army of hundreds, if not almost a thousand Demons and Demonic Beasts, all exuding almighty auras.
There were also many corpses, but their numbers only seemed to increase. Our allies and friends have been fighting without end to protect the entire village and the inhabitants left behind.
And above all, the Dungeon where we went, which is most likely what the Demons are truly seeking, I fear.
"I believe I know what the demons came looking for." I sighed.
Everyone looked at me in surprise, their faces clearly asking me what.
"Without a doubt, they came to retrieve Pandemonium"s Lung." I smiled. "But now that I"ve eaten it and its powers became one with me, they"re all going to target me."
"Wait, what? They came for that?" Miranda was shocked.
"I see…" Benladann nodded. "Now that Pandemonium is awake, he wants to complete his body, so he has probably sent demons to all places where he sensed his sealed body parts!"
"Even though that d.a.m.ned Flame Emperor managed to revive him, he probably could only find a handful of fragments." I said. "Probably the reason why he seemed so strange and zombie-like, with many other different body parts st.i.tched to him. Of Divine Beasts and other G.o.ds he had hunted to use as materials."
"That makes sense…" Miranda nodded. "But even then… he was so strong back then! He"s most likely not just a single fragment or two."
"I fear it might be close a minimum of five, or a maximum of eight… If I calculate how utterly powerful he was compared to the one we just defeated." I a.n.a.lyzed it in a split of a second. "We can"t possibly let him retrieve more fragments, or he"ll become something even beyond what we couldn"t handle already."
"You"re right!" Benladann nodded. "But for now, we have to put an end to this entire ordeal! But there are so many everywhere, and there"s a giant wolf over there- This presence… Is that Aegir fighting with Rakasha and Tisha? And that fourth person… She has such a familiar aura yet, it is so strong and divine!"
"Huh?"
I looked into the distance with my sharp eyes, noticing a beautiful and youthful beast-kin G.o.ddess with such a beautiful appearance she resembled a j.a.panese G.o.ddess.
She even wore a kimono and had a big halo made of blue divine light behind her, alongside giant frost wings and armor made of frost feathers…
"That"s… Yuki?!" I asked.
"Wait, it"s her?!" Everyone else was shocked, especially Benladann and Miranda, whose words ended synchronizing.
It seems that she had gone through a completely new transformation. Just what happened to her to have changed this much? Did she evolve somehow?
It somehow feels like she awakened something sleeping within her for a long time…
Heh looks like this world is truly filled with geniuses.
Even Yuki ended becoming an unexpected main character of this world!
"I can also see Nadia, Mina, Jamar, and the rest of Surtr"s group over there. They"re protecting the walls quite well!" Miranda said.
"And Surtr… He"s over there! He"s fighting a bunch of demons himself, seeking- Is that the h.e.l.l Gate?" Benladann wondered.
"I see how it is." I nodded. "Alright, we"ll have to inevitably split our group. We must quickly secure the safety of everyone!"
"Alright!"
As everyone agreed, I quickly decided to use my newly earned Demonic Energy.
"System, I am guessing I can use this the same way as Divine Power, right?"
[That"s right. The power of Pandemonium"s body part has unlocked a new set of Demonic Abilities you can unlock using Demonic Energy!]
"Good!"
Ding!
[You"ve exchanged 300.000.000 Demonic Energy.]
