Chapter 237: Destruction Of The Empire II

[Eldion Empire]

Given a 10 minute headstart, Duke Agra immediately ordered for the whole remaining soldiers and knights of empire to come and protect his majesty

He even included the castle's own staff such as chefs, butlers, maid, and etc. And ordered them to protect his majesty at all cost

As also one of the guys serving under the King Emperor himself, Duke Agra has a responsibility to protect him too

Soon after all of the knights of the kingdom gathered in the castle non-stop and was designated in different areas all to hinder whatever enemy may come at them

During this King Emperor Ergo gave them one special mission, that is to kill the four perpetrators that dares to attack the king

Of course he also ordered for the presence of the Empire's Adventurers and receives a reply that a huge crowd was being sent to them as aid

Most of all Duke Agra even thought of escaping completely out of the Empire's walls, but when he planned for it, for some reason he just couldn't find the exit

After checking for awhile as he roams, he realized that Kaido must have done something and deducted that he wouldn't let them escape the castle walls

Some even thought of destroying it using magic, but to no avail the walls never seemed damaged even though it got rained down by magic

With all of this happening, Duke Agra steeled his resolve as gripped his sword and went infront of the King Emperor

At that exact moment a just at the right time that the 10 minutes finished counting down, a figure suddenly flew off from the balcony and dived down towards the seemingly entrance of the castle

Following that they in turn heard explosions coming from the castle as both Aileene and Fengris goes and hunts them

*********

With a flap of his dragonic wings Argos softly landed unto the ground and blocked the entrance gate of the Empire

Putting both of his hands on his waist and standing imposingly like that, Argos begun examining all of the presence that were nearing the castle

Soon after he could feel presence of a huge crowd gathering up not far from him

At the same time the Adventurers immediately went over to the castle and was met by Argos who was seemingly blocking them

"Oi! Move aside! Don't you know that the Empire's being attacked?"

"I know..." Answered Argos

"Then don't block us!"

"Can't do that" he replied

"Huh? What are you up to? Who are you anyway? State your name!"

"You can just call me Argos, as for the other question, then I can't move away from this place cause I was assigned not to let anyone escape nor enter... . . And that included you" stated Argos

As soon as he said that some of the Adventurers became bewildered by his answer while others were confused

Sooner than later a huge bulk adventurer came forward and walked towards Argos

As he came closer he easily surpassed Argos by the height they both have

For his bulky body composition, he somehow towered above Argos, that the latter himself was only at the same height as his chest

"Move"

"No can do"

"I said move"

"..."

"People who have a pampered look like you isn't suitable for battle so why don't you scurry back to your mother's embrace and suck up to her like a good child you are" taunted by the huge adventurer

"I hate to say this but I don't have a mother so I don't know what that feels"

"What!?!?!"

"As I said in lived alone and for myself"

With the huge adventurer domeanering aura, he somehow intended to scare Argos who looked like a pampered child of a noble to scurry away

Unfortunately that wasn't so easily met as Argos stayed indifferent of the situation and stood completely still on one place even though.he was being pressured by a human

Soon after explosions rung out outside as the shouts of the soldiers reverbrated to the air followed by the sound of their dying screams

Hearing that the adventurers became even more frantic as they decided to charge through Argos

"I've got no time for this! Move!!!"

"No"

With that one word the huge adventurer's patience finally snapped as he pulled out his war axe and swung it towards Argos with an attempt to cut him through

*Ting!

Unfortunately a full metallic sound could be heard being reverbrated as the war axe of the huge Adventurer clashed against the normal human skin of Argos

Not only was the huge adventurer was surprised, the other who were behind him were also surprised

"What... What are..."

But before he could finish, his head went flying after one swing coming from Argos himself

As he kicked the huge adventurer's body away and made it crash unto a far structure, Argos himself in turn held up its head as he smiled and made it roll towards the other adventurers

Soon after his dragonic wings showed up and spreads out as it covers the whole castle entrance

With that initiation the Adventurers immediately went on a rampage as the close combatant adventurers charged in towards Argos, while the mages started casting spells and healers started supporting their teammates

I'm just a moment the whole adventurers of the empire immediately charged in and targeted him after killing someone that was one of them right before their very eyes

"Die!!!"

With a swing the male adventurer brought down his sword as if made contact with Argos, but as it did his very sword itself snapped in half upon contact to his skin

With a punch from Argos his chest armor that was made of mithril suddenly caved in as he coughed blood and got blasted away

Soon after he died cause on the caved in injury straight to his chest that suffocated his lungs

At some point another Adventurer with a profession of an assassin went on his soldier and tried to stab him in the head

But in just a moment he actually took a hold of its hand and found out it was a woman, seemingly seeing as humans nothing more of an insect, Argos easily snapped the assassin's hand off and slammed her down to the ground that was so hard that it caused rupture and a pool of blood to sprout out upon collision

Stretching out his claws his easily teared down the Adventurers armors and killed them in one hit

Soon after the mages bombarded him with spells after spells as if there was no tommorow

Everything was a mess, as the citizens all turned and observed at some distance due to curiosity of the battle, some adventurers already fought against Argos and died

Now that place was being bombarded at such volume and destruction that it actually ruptured the ground over and over again followed by the sudden destruction of it's surrounding places

Soon after one female adventurer drew up her arrow and enforced it with magic as she lets go of the string to form a straight bullseye shot

As the arrow sweeps past the explosion completely aiming towards Argos, a hand actually took a hold of it as it was easily replaced with its own Mana and sent it back to its owner at a high speed

With that the arrow zoomed even more faster as it went past through everything and  blasted the Archer away as it pierced through her heart

With a single flap of his wings Argos broke off the momentum of the Adventurers as he revealed to them that he was unharmed

Surprised by this result some of them begun. To adruptly cast magic once more, but just as it did that, Argos for some reason vanished right before their eyes and reappeared infront of that adventurer in a split second as it smashed down his head to the ground turning it into a smush

After that he applied a psyionic magic on his wings as it allowed it to turn into a deadly blade and with a swing he killed all the adventurers that are inside his five meters radius

Soon after that he was once again fired down by more spells from afar as some mages are now situated above some of the structures such as firm and buildingain Ng to provide advantage in altitude

Again with a flap he shot out towards the sky as he held out his hand and started casting instant chantless magic

"Black Lightning calamity"

When he said that a huge spherical lightning ball with the hue of black appeared before his palm as it started crackling all about and slightly changing the weather itself

With a throw the huge electrified plasmatic sphere slammed down unto the ground killing everyone that has no way to survive such blast, which in particular are the low ranked adventurer and the innocent citizens

With a huge explosion that blinded the darken day of the Empire a huge crater was suddenly formed at a radius of 20 kilometers plastered on the ground leaving only the strong adventurers and others who have a tool to save them from it to survive the blast

But for some reason due to Kaido taking over the whole castle as a part of him, the castle itself looked unharmed by the blast which amazed him

Once more he landed infront of the entrance as he placed a hand on his waist and another one on his chin as he observed the destruction he made

"Yep! I still got it, I still haven't gone rusty at all"

But at this mention he suddenly felt a seemingly huge Mana fluctuation coming in close to him at a high speed

With his arm he intentionally tried to block the attack and have his arm received the full Brunt damage as he used this momentum to flip himself off the ground and deliver an upward swing with it's claws

Unfortunately the one who atta he'd him reacted quickly and blocked his attack with a dual sword placed infront of his face

As Argos landed he saw his hand was actually bleeding from the successful cut from the opponent which surprised himself

Bit soon after he healed them with high regeneration, he suddenly felt another hinge of danger coming from behind him with the aim to cut off his neck

With a quick thought from him he quickly ducked down and flapped his wings to blast him out of their way and distanced himself from them

He wanted to see the faces of the people who dared to attack him as he found such humans that were able to injure him quite interesting

Of course when he did he quickly saw the figures of two silhouttes that were able to I hire him and made him feel danger

"You human's... . . Such interesting creatures, just who are you?"

As Argos asked this both of them had a laugh for awhile as the swordsman placed his sword unto his shoulder and Introduced himself, while the other with complete covered up armor except for his face said his piece

"Names Sully!"

"I'm named Seijurn!"

As the swordsman was a short haired guy wearing bandana and a leather vest with tailored shirt and pants followed by a leather boots whole also holding two sword he manifested through Mana, he for a moment could be mistaken for a pirate due to having a bandana on his forehead

As for the Royal Knight that is the lowest ranking of the group he completely wore a white somehow divine looking armor from chest to toe, his brown long hair fluttering In the wind and brown eyes were staring towards Argos as if seeing someone that was a natural enemy of the church

"I'm impressed with your destructiveness culprit friend, so in turn I'll subjugate you as a honor of an SSS-RANK Adventurer" said Sully

"I Seijurn! Royal Knight Rank.12 of the Holy city, am hereby declare in the name of our church who governs the world through religion shall suppress you and subjugate you" stated Seijurn as he faced Argos

Seeing them like that Argos couldn't help but be more amazed than ever as he released about his previously suppressed strength of 5% to jump up to 20% in respect to the two people who managed to amaze him

When he did released his strength so suddenly like that, the whole sky slowly turn light grey as rumble of thunder and rain seemingly forming above them just by the pressure alone that was radiating from Argos

For some reason Argos was somehow showing off just how much out of logic was the strength of a Calamity Being and if that wasn't enough to intimidate them at all then he has no choice but to engrave the idea of fearing a Calamity Being just like what he did to their ancestors about 3,500 years ago

"You guys seemed to forget about the existence of a Calamity being, how about let me help you refresh the fear I forcefully instilled unto the mind of your ancestors"
