Chapter 262: Chapter 262: The War At The Bridge III
[Bridge, Demon Continent]
Faced off against each other Elijah sticks out his dagger as he faces against Asuto, the same guy who has the audicity to stab sui straight to the heart
Soon after he could hear the sound of other Elven warriors that are running along the nature element bridge that was fortified by his mother the Queen of the Elves
"Hero-sama!"
"Hero-sama were here to help"
"We'll support you Hero-sama!"
As the warriors showed their support, Elijah however clicked his tongue otherwise as he instructed the Elves
"You want to help me? Then take care of this monster and soldiers behind this guy"
Hearing that the Elves finally realized the demon army behind Asuto, but after a few moments of silence from them, one guy actually stood upfront as he shouted in his full voice
"Don't worry Hero-sama! Leave the enemy army to us, we'll make sure that they can't interfere you fight"
Just like that the other Elves immediately agreed as they soon charged against the demon army
Seeing such a sight Asuto soon took a grip of his purple sword as he moved a bit of his body, but Elijah quickly took notice of this as he instantly went below his sight and gave him a good push
Unexpecting this Asuto soon applied a bit of his strength to his knees and steadied his hold unto the ground as he raised his elbow.and slammed it down against Elijah
"Gah!"
Biting his lips Elijah let's go of Asuto as he proceeded to attack him with his dagger
"Swift strike!!!"
Swinging down his dagger Elijah soon heard a crisp sound of metal brushing against each other as Asuto efficiently blocks his attack with his sword and immediately countered by exploding his aura causing him to step back by a few steps
But when he did this Asuto immediately mumbled some words before sending out a huge Mana wave attack towards him
Sensing danger Elijah quickly dived to the side only to notice that something was strange, soon an explosion rung out behind him which either proved his intuition
The nature element bridge received a huge cut causing it to sway slightly making some elves fall into the gorge to their death
"You bastard!"
As Elijah cursed Asuto, he quickly called out for his system to follow up his request
"Activate mind Concentration function!"
<Understood>
"Let's use Mana burst, make sure to intimidate him"
<Activating Mana burst>
With this Elijah seemed to have become much more serious as he quickly took his distance and aimed straight at Asuto
"Rapid shot!!!"
Firing off multiple arrows at an incredible speed, Asuto quickly moved away from his spot as he run at a place that neither fats nor slow and just swift either blocks or dodge Elijah's attacks
"Zavkiel! Predict his future actions"
<Understood>
Soon after some production dots appeared before Elijah eyes as it gave him some possible future actions that Asuto would take
"Alright! First "Rain arrows""
Shooting up from above his arrow quickly shined before revealing it's numbers which reach thousands and descended towards the ground killing some Demon's that dare to approach them nearby
As for Asuto he quickly took his position and glanced at the descending arrows as he raised his hand and formed some kind of a barrier
But as Asuto was busy defending against such attacks, Elijah on the other hand was already preparing for his next move as he quickly channels his attack
"Twin elemental arrows!!!"
Shooting at an incredible speed, one arrow swiftly passes through the rain of arrows and successfully hits Asuto arm, afterwards a white smoke soon enveloped his arm which in turn quickly froze that part of his section, thus surprising him
But when he was about to make a move another arrows instantly followed up by that attack but this time it's made up of fire attribute
Seeing the combination of heated fire and cooled ice together, a bad premonition suddenly dawned on him as it followed up a huge explosion blowing apart of hi armor and caused Asuto to crashed against the ground due to the force
But even as Asuto was down, Elijah still has anger lingers in him as he mercilessly rattled Asuto's location with multiple dozens of piercing strikes
Afterwards another huge explosions rung out which made everyone flinch from that explosion
Breathing roughly Elijah felt his heart was pounding from exhaustion by some much work he had to do, but just as Horus has taught him he still didn't let his guard down even for a moment
Just as he expected a silhoutte soon appeared beyond the smoke as it swiftly got dispersed by a single swing of the sword
Just like that he could see the damaged arm, but for some unknown reason that I jury quickly healed as purple veins crawled underneath Asuto's skin and further strengthens him
Afterwards Mana enveloped his arm forming another set of armor on it
Just when he thy of fighting again he suddenly heard Asuto spoke seriously for the first time they met
"Congratulations! Your the first one to destroy my armor and managed to injure me, you should rejoice at that fact, cause even those so called monsters weren't able to atleast destroy apart my armor... Pity isn't it? And they dare call themselves peak of strength, how funny"
Unknown to Elijah himself, Asuto was mocking the Calamity Class Beings for unable to destroy his armor to pieces, which was a foundation of his defense
But unable to comprehend just what he said Elijah instead glared at him but as he was about to fire off another arrow, Asuto suddenly appeared before him in a Sonic phase and slashed down his Mana conjured bow before choking him completely
As much as he could Elijah tried his best to retaliate and break Asuto's arm, but Everytime he did the latter would just tighten his grip even more, thus adding pressure to his choking
With a smile he directed his excitement to Elijah the Elven Hero at the same time one of the people he needed to kill at all cost
"Now let have some fun Hero"
*********
From afar on the other side of the bridge, since Elijah took a quite a distance from the bridge created by his mother, Queen Vivian instead trusted that Elijah would be safe no matter what situation he may experience beyond the gorge
So without hesitation she entrapped the monsters and Demon's that were chasing Melfina's group and bypassing the Elven army with wines shooting out of the bridge
Using this vibes she efficiently snapped her fingers causing them to explode this killing those monsters and Demon's in the process
Of course seeing this added morale to the army thus they charged forward in hopes to assist the Hero who bravely charged to the other side at a moment's notice
Soon Melfina arrived at their side and quickly went to Queen Vivian herself
Leading them far behind the back of the forefront she quickly headed over to assist Melfina's group and oversaw the three seriously injured people
Both Ingrid and Zia were closing their eyes in pain as they struggled to kept it to themselves causing this palm to be covered in their bloodied grip especially for Ingrid who has a stronger grip due to her knowing to handle a sword
Their cuts were above their left shoulder and crossing near their chest which showed just how deep their cut was
Immediately moving in to help Queen Vivian firstly called out some faires to help her treat her injury, thus using nature magic to slowly putting back their broken flesh, tissues, and bones together
As they treated them Queen Vivian soon moved to the most dangerous type of wound
When her eyes came over Sui, she suddenly felt the sense of guilt and sorrow as she saw her expression that was half tearing up while looking like a dead person
"I'm slowly keeping her heart functioning, so Sui is in a half dead state, we need to quickly heal her and fix her up" said Anna
Hearing that Queen Vivian's eyes quivered as she spoke up in a shaking voice
"I... I can't this kind of level of injury is too much to handle that even healing wouldn't work, even if we heal her the veins that are needed to efficiently help her function the same wouldn't be... I can't do such complicated magic but Horus can" she stated
"Horus? Who's he?"
"Horus... Some of you guys know who Horus is"
Hearing that Melfina immediately covered up for Queen Vivian after seeing Anna's viscous expression
"Horus is a kind of a high mage that can even deal with a vassal of the Demon king on his own, he is just that strong and coupled that with his incredible knowledge for magic"
"Really? Then bring him here, we need his knowledge on this, cause if we don't do it immediately Sui will die at this rate... If I estimate it she can only hold on for a less than an hour"
At that Melfina's eyes suddenly shook in despair causing her to glance at Sui
"We... We can't let that happen!" She exclaimed
With that Anna once again glared at Queen Vivian as she asked
"Where is he? Please tell us, we can't afford to loose her, we already lost Jack, if she dies we don't know what will happen anymore"
In faced of this situation Queen Vivian finally shook her head as she said
"Horus... Is currently not here, I can't even contact him"
With that all hope was lost on both Melfina and Anna, when suddenly Queen Vivian said something to assure them
"But I can slowly postpone it for another 1 hour, at that time I'll try my best to contact him"
With that thick vines slowly covered Sui's chest as it tightens it's grip and sprouted up a sunflower from above the wound in the heart
"With this she'll have atleast another hour to survive, by using the Mana dispersed from the air the flower could slowly absorbs the Mana and converting it to a healing pressure to the heart thus assisting her to survive... But we still needed someone to help her"
With that she stood up and walked far beyond the back as she mumbled up some words and applying Mana to the ground
Soon a huge magic circle showed up as roots started to entagled each other and slowly forming a pillar
"Nature's gate!!!"
Unable to comprehend what she was doing Anna applied even more Mana while drinking off some potion to replenish herself to further assist Sui's survival
*********
Meanwhile as something major happened on both sides of the gorge, on the stone bridge however a bloodied scene could be seen as two sides killed each other off
As some ghouls, orcs, goblins, kobolds etc. Passes through the first line of defense, Alduin's forces and warrior groups would charged in and deal with this monsters and Demon's
Some were even dying just by fighting against a Demon warrior, but either Xyrus or Alduin would easily dealt with them
With a slight move Alduin commanded the harpy race to dive down and aim to bringing down the bone wyverns with the help from other winged folks
"Ahhhhh!!!!"
As the screams from the soldiers screeched throughout the battlefield Alduin soon saw a giant Minotaur on the stone bridge as it heavily swing it's club Against the first line thus causing some shield bearers to cough up blood with every strike
As for those spearman and gunners they would either be flailed away or forcefully thrown off the bridge due to the force
Without further ado Alduin quickly conjured an photonic blade on either of his arm and called out to Xyrus
"Xyrus! Aim for his eyes"
Following his command Cyrus quickly uses a spell as he successfully blinded the Minotaur using a lightning spell to stroke it's eyesight
Using this chance Alduin jumps up and stabbed the Minotaur with it's two blades and poured out an exploding Mana inside of its body thus killing the huge beast
"Haaaahhhh!!!" Shouted Alduin as he slowly pushed back the huge body using pure strength
After that he easily killed some other monsters and Demon's along the way, thus raising the morale of the Beastman army
Just as when they thought that they had the upper hand, two silhouttes soon dashed past the enemy's crowded army and slammed against him causing Alduin to crash towards the shield bearers in a hard way
"Ahhh!"
"Hero-sama!"
"Alduin-sama!!!"
As the soldiers showed their concerns a scornful laugh soon drowned them as Alduin glared at the two figures that dared to surprise attack him
"So this is the hero of the Beastman race, why do he look like a bit pity compared to the others?" Mocked Sirius
"Well he did somewhat kept loosing against beings that are stronger than him, isn't that sad? It must have taken a lot of his pride away after those repeated defeats" said Hepta as she placed the huge halberd on her shoulders
"That true, but now he's even more in a sorry state as he have to fight against two vassals, what an unlucky bastard" smiled Sirius as he showed his fangs
In front of those mocking gaze Alduin soon laughed hysterically as he glared at them
"You must be kidding me! This is going to be fun, you bastards... I'm going to rip you apart"
