The only City that even showed slightest of resistance was the Royal City where Avilia had summoned all her Beasts to protect the City.
Unfortunately, even she was distressed. Her Summoned Beasts were strong, but they were being ripped apart!
She didn't know who attacked them, but the person was stronger than anything she had ever seen before. Not only was he stronger, but he was also ruthless!
No resistance could last against the beings that he summoned.
Noticing the resistance from the Royal City, Caen revealed slight interest.
He landed in the royal City. Wherever he passed through, people disintegrated into thin air.
No matter who tried to attack him, they died! Most people shouldn't even look at him, without having their eyes destroyed.
"This world is so weak. It's boring. Are you sure it's the place where a god died?!" Izac asked, as the flaming crown over his head appeared even more scary.
Wherever he walked through, everything was being burned to cinders. The entire city behind him was burning.
"Pathetic Beasts." Caen raised his hand, snapping his fingers.
All the beasts that were Summoned by Avilia disintegrated instantly into nothingness.
Avilia coughed out a mouthful of blood, as all her Summoned Beasts were killed instantly, giving her a backlash.
Karyk's Sister rushed to her, as Avilia appeared as if she could fall at any second, due to weakness.
"Stop worrying about me. Escape!" Avilia refused to take support, pushing Karyk's sister aside.
Even she didn't believe that she could survive. Not even five minutes had passed and everything was destroyed!
The once lively city was now reduced to rubble and ash. People were running around, searching for their loved ones amidst the chaos, only to be killed.
The World had never appeared this dark. Smoke and dust filled the air, making it difficult to breathe. Most of the city was burning and the fire was slowly coming towards the Royal Palace, as if following someone.
"How can I leave you and run away?! Come with me!" Karyk's sister exclaimed, as she stood up. Tears streamed down her face as she looked at Avilia. She couldn't leave her alone.
Avilia was about to summon her last beast, even in such an injured state, all to send Karyk's sister to safety. At the same time she decided to stay behind to hold the enemies back.
Unfortunately, before she could do either, she heard a calm voice that sent chills down her spine.
"Are you all planning to go somewhere?"
It was as if there was some authority in that power that made her drop to her knees.
Karyk's sister was also stunned as her body refused to listen to her. Her body also dropped to knees.
They both looked at each other in shock as they realized the gravity of the situation.
In the distance, some calm footsteps resounded. With each footsteps, their hearts trembled as if they were facing some ancient beast.
They raised their heads, only to be taken aback. The person who felt so scary was a young man, barely in his early twenties.
The man appeared like an ordinary man, with not a single trace of aura around him. However, the worldly laws were twisting and turning with each of his steps.
Avilia could also feel the same dark energy that belonged to the creatures which came out of the portals.
Behind the young man, there were more youngsters. All of them were bare handed. However, despite being a Holy Saint, Avilia wasn't able to see through them.
Even the weakest amongst them was stronger than the Goddess that she received her powers from. This group... She had no idea where they came from, but she couldn't even look at them straight.
She wasn't sure if even Karyk could stand against these people.
She glanced back at Karyk's sister. She didn't know how she could have that girl escape. The only thing she could rely on were the protective marks that Karyk had left on her.
"You keep looking at her. She must be very important to her. And you are the strongest ant I've seen in this world so far. So you must know who I'm looking for..."
Caen raised his hand.
Karyk's sister felt an invisible hand choking her throat.
Her body rose in the air. With a single wave of Caen's hands, the girl's body flew back, crashing straight on the castle walls.
"Argh!" The girl coughed out a mouthful of blood as she felt some of her bones break. She tried to stand up, but her legs gave out beneath her.
The strange patterns that Karyk had left on the girl's back started shining, slightly surprising Caen.
One of the patterns seemed to glow more intensely than the others, forming a symbol.
The aura of death surrounded the young woman, healing her wounds. At the same time, multiple Death Generals came out of her shadow which Karyk had left behind to protect her when her life was in danger.
"Oh? Undeads?" Caen was somewhat intrigued as he watched the Undead Generals. "You're too weak to make them. I suppose they were created by the person who I'm looking for? Looks like you're more valuable than I thought."
Caen raised his hand again.
Karyk's sister felt the same invisible hold around her throat. However, right then, the Death Generals attacked Caen.
"Pathetically weak," the man with the flaming crown shook his head lightly. "It's really getting boring."
He snapped his finger. The sea of flame behind him shot out, engulfing the Death Generals. In an instant, the Death Generals were destroyed, unable to offer even the slight of resistance.
Avilia was frozen at the sight. These people were stronger beyond her imagination.
Karyk's sister flew straight into Caen's hands.
"Where is that person!" Caen asked, tightening his grip. "I won't ask twice."
In his grip, with each second that passed, the girl felt her body being destroyed particle by particle, thanks to the abyssal energy which was poisonous for even gods, let alone humans.
