"Lord Parion —!?"
Watching Parion explode into a sky full of flesh and blood before their eyes, the four apostles similarly cried out in panic.
"This …"
Shien was even more confused.
That's it?
That's it?
"What did you do to his body?"
Shien looked at Chafine in shock.
Chafine raised her brows and said innocently, "I didn't do anything. He absorbed all the magic power in this space, didn't he?"
Shien almost didn't understand what she meant.
After a while, Shien's mouth twitched as he watched Chafine continuously release magic power into the surroundings.
"… You mixed your magic power into the magic power in the atmosphere and allowed the Apostle to use his unique skill to absorb the magic power in the atmosphere. Then, you mixed your magic power into the Apostle's body and let it go out of control, causing the Apostle to explode?"
Shien's words didn't get a response from Chafine. She only revealed an incomparably beautiful and touching smile.
Good fellow, I'm f * cking good fellow.
Didn't they say that the most brutal demons were the Poison Demon and the Dragon Demon?
Why do I feel that the most brutal one should be this harmless-looking succubus?
Someone looks like a succubus on the surface, but is actually a wolf killer?
It seems like I can't do anything to this devastatingly beautiful woman next time.
Shien silently wiped the sweat off his forehead.
However, just as Sean and Chafne were about to relax, a sudden gust of fishy wind blew past them.
"It's not over yet!!!"
Parion's body, which had exploded into a pile of flesh and blood, reconstructed itself in the fishy wind. He roared as he returned to his original form.
"I won't die so easily! Succubus Chafine! "
As he shouted, Parion waved the cane in his hand, causing a violent gust of wind to blow in the direction of Sean and Chafney.
"Not dead yet?"
Chafing, Chafing furrowed her brows. Without saying a word, she sent out another palm strike.
Boom!
The surging magic power transformed into a huge palm and smashed the incoming fishy wind, the chaotic atmosphere, and Parion's body, which had just recovered with great difficulty. He exploded again and turned into a pile of flesh and blood.
But very quickly, the flesh and blood that filled the sky gathered in the air once again, and Parion was resurrected.
"Ahhh …!"
The resurrected Parion didn't just set off a violent wind this time, he even caused the world to spin, turning the entire space into an upside-down chaotic world. It made people feel dizzy and unsteady, making them feel extremely uncomfortable.
Chafine's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. Mana surged out of her, and just like how she had stabilized the distorted space at the beginning, she borrowed the immense power to stabilize the surrounding space.
Sean also did not hesitate to use the "fixed" Apply and Attach magic to the surrounding space, so that they were firmly fixed in place and no longer twisted and turned upside down.
Seeing this, Parion continued to roar and create a fishy wind that distorted the world. It was as if he wanted to crush Shien and Chafine.
Unfortunately, although he was powerful, he was not invincible. Not to mention Chafine, even Shien, whose magic power was far superior to his, could use magic to resist the spatial anomaly of [Crimson Sun Hell].
But …
"His unique skill seems to have other mysteries, making him very hard to kill."
Chafine released magic power to stabilize herself while looking at Shien in annoyance, as if she had encountered a cockroach that could not be killed.
"Why don't you make a move and kill him?"
If she spent some time, Chafine would definitely be able to break through Parion's unique skill and completely kill him.
But there was no need.
Even if Parion was really an unkillable cockroach, he could only blame his bad luck for encountering Shien.
After all, holy swords were the true nemesis of Demons. If one was hit by a holy sword, no matter how hard it was to kill Demons, they would die.
"Alright, in the end, I still have to do it."
Sean understood this point, and while sighing, he did not waste any time and unlocked the seal of the Holy Sword.
"Unseal (Heresu)!"
With a short incantation, the sealed steel blade on the holy sword in Shien's hand broke into pieces, turning into three seal rings that appeared on the hilt of the holy sword.
Shien had actually undone all three seals on the holy sword in one go.
Now that his identity had been exposed and there was no need to hide it, Shien did not need to hide anymore. He could use the holy sword normally to fight his enemies.
Moreover, the experience in the Imperial Capital had indeed taught Shien a profound lesson. Now that he knew that even the strongest existence could be defeated, Shien no longer had the thought of hiding his abilities when faced with a high-level battle.
Shien did not want to have a fifty-fifty chance of winning. He clearly had hidden power, but he never used it.
It would have been fine if there was something difficult to say, but since there was no more, Shien naturally hoped that he would be in the Fishpond Game every time. He could just crush them with force.
Hence, apart from the side effects of the Samsara Mandate, Shien had already decided not to hide his strength anymore.
The holy sword was the most powerful artifact born from the concept of "Heroes". It was the crystallization of power that only true Heroes could use. There was no price to pay to use it. Since that was the case, why should Shien be polite?
He would just be reckless!
Hence, an incomparably resplendent radiance shone from the unsealed holy sword in Shien's hand. It instantly occupied the world, turning the crimson color into gold.
An astonishing holy wave swept through the entire space, causing Parion's pupils to shrink. Chafne could not help but look solemn, and her heart thumped.
It was a godly weapon that could kill all Demons. Even Demons and the Demon King could not escape from it.
"Come, let me slash you. Let's see if you can resurrect again."
Shien revealed a frightening smile to Parion.
An astonishing aura erupted from his body.
At this moment, with the power of the holy sword, Shien had easily surpassed the Legendary Level and even the Ultimate Level.
"His … His holy sword is actually so powerful …!?"
Parion's face was filled with horror.
Swoosh!
Suddenly, Shien disappeared.
"Oh no!"
Parion immediately sensed something, and his expression changed drastically. Without hesitation, his body shook, and he disappeared into the distorted space.
Clang!
In the next second, a dazzling sword light slashed where Parion was, cutting open the distorted space.
"Escape?"
Shien suddenly appeared. His eyes narrowed, and he suddenly turned around and dashed in a direction.
In that direction, Parion's figure quietly appeared.
"Quick! Stop him! "
Parion's extremely anxious voice sounded.
Obviously, Parion was very clear that no matter how difficult it was to kill him, once he encountered the holy sword, he would be completely dead.
When the group of apostles heard Parion's extremely anxious order, they groaned inwardly.
Even Parion, who was at the Ultimate Level and had activated such a powerful unique skill, had to flee in front of Shien. How could the few of them, who were only at the Legendary Level, stop Shien?
But Parion did not care whether his apostles were willing or not. He directly used Spatial Distortion, and a few apostles appeared on the path that Shien had to pass through.
At the same time, Parion also wildly exerted negative influence on Shien by manipulating this space.
For example, increasing the gravity around Shien, limiting his speed and increasing the weight he had to bear.
For example, completely distorting the space so that Shien could no longer use Instant Movement.
For example, reversing the world countless times made Shien lose his sense of direction, vision, and hearing.
Thus, Parion did everything that he could.
However …
Boom!
With a wave of incomparably horrifying magic power exploding from Shien's body, the gravity, the distortion of space, and the reversal of the world were all forcibly fixed in place.
"How is this possible …?!"
Parion could not believe his eyes.
Even Chafine's breathing stagnated, and she could not help but murmur.
"Transcendence …"
That's right.
Transcendence.
Now that he had reached level 95 and completely unsealed the holy sword, even without using the special skill [Samsara Destiny] and burning magic power to strengthen himself, Shien had the power of transcendence.
That power might not be comparable to a demon, but it was not inferior to existences at the level of the Goddess of Life and the Goddess of Nature.
That was why Sean could now be like Chafnir. He could use pure and absolute power to freeze the entire space and even this part of the world just by releasing his mana.
Thus, Shien's figure flickered a few times, and he flashed past the horrified Sysai and Sean, who were blocking his way.
Puchi!
With a neat slashing sound, the sword light disappeared in a flash.
Sysai and Sean, who had already been corroded by the holy energy of the holy sword, were unable to dodge Shien's ultimate slash that had reached the threshold of transcendence, and blood splattered on the spot.
"Sean …!"
"Big Brother …!"
The two Legend rank experts of the Otherworldly Demon Tribe howled and called out to each other. Amidst the rain of blood, they were neatly sliced into two halves.
Sysai, dead.
Sean, dead.
These two brothers who had hidden in the Succubus City for centuries died in this crimson world just like that.
Without even turning his head, Shien continued dashing in Parion's direction.
"Stop him! Stop him-! "
Parion was already scared out of his wits. He roared furiously and disappeared into the distorted space, escaping without a trace.
"Ahhhhhh …!"
The remaining middle-aged Demons could only watch as Shien charged toward them. With a roar, one of them raised a giant sword, while the other raised a giant shield, in an attempt to stop Shien.
However, what greeted them was a dazzling sword light that suddenly appeared in front of them.
Looking at the dazzling sword light, the pair of Demons suddenly recalled the words they had said when they first arrived at the Succubus City and entered the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe with Parion. When they heard of Shien's existence.
"As long as Lord Parion gives the order, we'll go and retrieve the Hero's head."
"Even if he's a Hero, with the four of us attacking him together, I don't believe we can't take him down."
Thinking back to what they had said at that time, only now did they realize how naive they had been.
Endless regret welled up in their hearts.
Then, the sword light flashed …
The consciousness of the two middle-aged apostles of the Old Devil Sect, a man and a woman, was completely severed.
