After Being Sold Out By The Empire, I Decide To Assist The Demon King
Chapter 253 - 128: The Death of Five Legends

Chapter 253: Chapter 128: The Death of Five Legends

Perhaps Yila’s leisurely behavior really was like playing with fire, a bit too pretentious... But the biggest problem was, he truly couldn’t face the five Legends with a tense attitude.

If he had suddenly encountered the five Legends, he might have panicked a bit... Because maybe the "Death Trigger" could be activated.

Though it wouldn’t matter much, after all, he would merely be eliminated once.

But in the current situation, he really couldn’t panic; it was like a homeowner encountering five knife-wielding thieves with an inexhaustible and infinite arsenal at hand.

These five had some understanding of Yila... They at least recognized that "the Governor is a profession that absorbs others’ Mana to power his own battles, so anti-magic is ineffective."

This was something many in the Demon King Territory weren’t aware of.

However, the words from their mouths, "You killed all our subordinates in advance, so now there’s no Mana to absorb and use," really made Yila laugh.

Once killed, the souls would undoubtedly fly towards the direction of the World Tree at the first opportunity... Unless intercepted or sucked back by some soul absorption entity, they would surely fly away.

But Mana, on the other hand...

When someone is killed, Mana certainly dissipates but doesn’t fly away purposefully... It would slowly disappear into the space, gradually being absorbed back into the World Tree.

After the recent slaughter, the surroundings were nearly filled with usable Mana.

So Yila truly couldn’t get nervous. Instead, he was somewhat worried about the "exception" they mentioned. Exceptions were different from Legends... Such beings were nearly insurmountable.

The difference between a Legend and an Exception was almost as vast as the gap between a "Legend (level)" and an ordinary person with no profession.

To be honest, even Yila didn’t have the confidence to definitely win against an Exception, but you all are just ordinary folks...

"Third Wing Pillar·Fire Mage·Wing Shatter"

"Fourth Wing Pillar·White Knight·Wing Shatter"

"First Wing Pillar·Fire Mage·Wing Shatter"

"...Wing Shatter"

"...Wing Shatter"

"...Wing Shatter"

"..."

Under the flat monotone, it was like the end of the world; enormous white knight swords pierced the ground densely, forming a forest of what seemed to be forty-foot-high giant swords...

The terrain had changed here, from a massive plain scorched by fire to a white forest filled with towering white swords. Yila was casually flying through the forest, dodging the hastily approaching fireballs.

He mechanically absorbed Mana continuously while launching attacks.

And each time the Fire Mage released Mana, the scorching lava bombs would turn patches of ground into uninhabitable seas of fire, forcing the five Legends to constantly move to avoid being hit.

The temporarily calmed areas of the fire left behind beautifully glazed liquid, shimmering under the sunlight.

...

Satan Ye: "So beautiful~"

Vera: "Yes, quite a show to watch~"

Satan Ye and Vera were entirely enjoying the show, but the five Legends, who were being chased and hit like rats, naturally couldn’t remain calm. They... were on the brink of collapse.

"Why... Why is this happening?!"

"We’re Legends!"

"Yila is supposed to be a Legend too!"

Constantly complaining, at this point, the five Legends were no longer even remotely composed. Their armor and red robes had turned tattered and worn... Filled with massive bleeding wounds or utterly unwatchable charred flesh.

Just as they were contemplating how to counterattack or escape, scorching flames flew towards them again.

"Damn... Here it comes again, move!"

"..."

...

"So pitiful~"

Satan Ye commented, standing on a hillside, watching from afar as the five Legends were beaten into pigs. She said, "Though they are enemies, they seem really pitiful."

Vera nodded in agreement with Satan Ye’s assessment, shaking her head sentimentally. She said, "Yes, I really don’t understand what they were thinking, treating Yila as an ordinary Legend~"

Indeed, that was their greatest mistake... If Yila had merely been of an ordinary Legend’s caliber, the demons being relentlessly defeated would have been a super joke, wouldn’t it?

But what Satan Ye meant by pitiful wasn’t that...

"Vera, do you remember? Yila’s ’Fourth Wing Pillar·Jili Gula·Wing Shatter’ can explode..."

Satan Ye said this, mimicking Yila’s tone, yet earnestly claiming that "Jili Gula" stood for everything in the Fourth Wing Pillar·Wing Shatter, making her seem adorable.

But if those five Legends heard Satan Ye’s words, they would definitely shiver as if falling into an ice cave, without a hint of feeling she was cute.

"Oh~ Speaking of which, indeed..."

Vera rested her chin on her hand, nodding as she watched the five Legends, who now looked like driven mice, being gradually forced from the outer dense perimeter of the white sword forest to the very center where it was densest.

Like prey caught in a spider’s web, the more they struggled, the tighter the web ensnared them.

"So, these five, not only were they being indiscriminately hunted by Yila in power, but their brains seemed quite dull too... Weren’t they being crushed in every way?"

Vera said this, rolling her eyes as she looked at Yila and the five fools approaching the center, the densest part of the forest of great swords from afar... Seemingly about to begin the final battle.

Those fools might even think, "Previously, Yila was so fierce; he must have had the advantage of knowing the terrain, and now, we’re in the center; let’s see how he fights us now" ...or something like that.

One had to admit, maybe they weren’t fools; otherwise, they wouldn’t have become Legends.

"Their intelligence gathering was poor; probably due to past experiences, their conversations were full of arrogance and misplaced confidence. But it’s normal, after all, who could have imagined Yila could easily take on five?"

Vera commented, summarizing while stroking Satan Ye’s head. She said, "The five Legends had too many problems, although Yila was exceptionally strong... If they had been a bit more serious, at least they could have died more gracefully."

As she finished speaking...

"Boom!!!"

"Boom boom boom!!!"

"Boom boom boom!"

The chain of explosions covered the white forest, enveloping Yila and the five Legends, who were the epicenter of the explosions... Don’t worry, although there might not be intact corpses, the heads would certainly remain.

After all, Vera still needed to absorb their souls, in this regard... Vera saved them, sparing them from the fate of a headless death. Wow! Considering that, she really was amazing!

"Wait, does this mean... I, Vera, saved the heads of five Legends from Yila?"

Vera self-praised, causing Satan Ye to burst into laughter.

...

"Hmm... Probably counts..."

Yila’s voice came from below, as he gently flew up to land beside the two, dropping a string of heads on the ground... His spotless clothes starkly contrasted with the tattered heads in his hands.

Next, it was Vera’s turn to work.
