Chapter 604

So many demons rushed towards Dio that not even the Avengers had enough time to get to him and protect him! “DIO!” Wanda shouted in panic as she could no longer see Dio’s figure in front of the door. At the same time, she unleashed her power without holding and turned every demon within ten meters radius around her into ashes. 

Other Avengers could feel how desperate Wanda was from her burst of energy. Pietro wanted to comfort her sister, but Vision immediately stopped him. “Don’t come anywhere near her now. Her power is in fluctuation because of her emotion! You won’t get away unscathed if you’re around her right now!” Vision said to Pietro casually.

Pietro did sense the danger from her power, but he didn’t believe that Wanda would go as far as hurting him like that. But as he was at a loss whether he should go to Wanda or not, a sudden burst of purple energy was seen in front of the door!

“It’s Dio!” Steve shouted. As the purple energy hit the ground, the demons around the door disintegrated and vanished without any trace! More than thousands of demons were killed with Dio’s attack! Despite the shocking firepower, Dio made sure his power output wasn’t too high as he didn’t want to destroy the city near them to the ground!

He knew that in the past, the ancient G.o.ds that got their hands on Power Gem have always destroyed the planet they wanted without any hesitation at all! Although Dio still wasn’t sure he got the power to destroy the entire planet in one stroke, he knew that he would be able to destroy the city easily! 

After knowing that Dio was safe, Wanda’s chaotic energy dissipated as she was relieved to see her lover wasn’t in good shape. After killing the demons with the Power Gem’s energy, Dio looked around, prepared to attack any other demons that came his way. He didn’t budge an inch from the front of the Serpentine Door as he was worried that the door would open once more!

But the fact that Dio killed thousands of demons with a single attack discouraged the other demons as they stayed clear from Dio and shifted their target to the Avengers and the army instead. Dio didn’t have time to hunt them down as he was still using the [World] to absorb the souls of the demons he just killed. 

Dio checked his soul count and a.s.sumed that it would be enough to ensure that the Serpentine Door would disappear! He immediately ordered the [World] to punch the door once more and immediately used Reality Overwrite on it! This time he focused on overwriting the fact that the door existed on Earth. 

It was a success as his soul count rapidly decreased, but he didn’t expect it to consume so many souls like this! Dio frowned as he knew that overwriting the existence of the door would be an arduous task, but he didn’t expect that he would lose so many souls like this! The amount of soul it consumed was on a whole different level compared to the previous Reality Overwrite that Dio was on the verge of tears!

His soul count kept decreasing that it was now on the verge of empty. The frown on Dio’s face became clearer as he was afraid that the soul wouldn’t be enough to overwrite the door from existence! “Please be enough!” Dio said to himself as his worries escalated as he saw the soul count enter the hundreds. 

But the souls count stopped, and the Reality Overwrite immediately activated! The Serpentine Gate slowly disappeared from the ground. The red sand that was constantly expanding and a.s.similating with Earth has stopped completely and gradually decayed into grey sand. 

Dio slumped down on the ground as he saw that his effort was successful. He sighed in relief as he saw that everything was finally over. Then again, he felt disappointed the moment he laid his eyes on the remaining soul he had left. It was close to zero, and Dio wasn’t sure when he could acc.u.mulate that many souls again in the future. 

“What the h.e.l.l is that snake door anyway?” Dio said with a frown on his face. It was the worst thing he had ever seen from the enemy so far, but it made sense that Mephisto would be overly confident regarding his invasion with that door on his side!

Without his Reality Overwrite ability, the Earth wouldn’t stand a chance against the h.e.l.l army as the door would still be open right now, and the enemy would constantly march to Earth without end. At the same time, Dio realised a figure was running towards him, and he immediately let go of his weapons and embraced the figure.

“It’s alright. It’s over now!” Dio said as he hugged Wanda tightly. It wasn’t a surprise if Wanda was shaken by the battle just now. It was a complete nightmare as the enemy kept coming non-stop. There was also exhaustion from the battle and worrying about each other safety. 

If it wasn’t for the Power Gem and the Reality Overwrite that successfully turned the tide of the battle, Dio might have been killed by Mephisto. 

“Not that I want to bother you, but it is time to finish things off and get away from here,” Tony said as he pointed his fingers towards the scattered demons, trying to run away from the heroes. The damage they would do in the future would be unimaginable if they let the demons get away now. 

There was a possibility that they would bring much more troublesome disaster in the future. After all, there were too many human sects that worshipped Satan here on Earth.

Dio sighed and let go of Wanda and took his scythe from the ground to finish things off. Even without Tony’s reminder, he didn’t have any intention to let them go in the first place! Because in his eyes, these demons were the perfect source to replenish his soul count!
