Chapter 288: War Of Nations XIII

[Demon Continent, Demon King's Castle]

After getting inside the castle doors, Kaido together with Argos and Fengris started walking through so many halls and doors of this castle

At some point they even started to wander around the castle

"Wow! This castle is huge! It will probably take us days before we can find him" exclaimed Fengris as he looked around the giant hole

"... Kaido! Anything on your radar?" Asked Argos

"... Nope none, there is not even a maid, soldier, or workers... This is getting weirder, keep your guard up" reminded Kaido

As he thought of that Fengris on the other hand started to observe the structure of the castle

"You know... I've got a feeling that this castle was designed to even accommodate Giants, what do you guys think?" He asked as he observed the place

"What we think?... We haven't really thought of it that way before" replied Argos

"Really? I bet even your true form could fit in here" said Fengris while glancing at Argos

"Based on its structure of its interior then I guess so..."

Walking alongside them, Kaido simply bypassed Fengris as he continued to walk ahead of them, but just as he did that his radar suddenly picked up of something, that somewhat has suddenly popped up like a glitch

Due to that Kaido's footsteps adruptly stopped, thus alerting both Argos and Fengris

At the edge of the hallway where they are located at, a hooded figure with it's ragged robe was standing before them and not even flinching an inch

Noticing someone else presence, both Argos and Fengris stopped their idle way and walked beside Kaido as they observed the robed-hooded figure before them

"I didn't expect someone to suddenly show up just like that... Tell me... Who are you?" Asked Kaido as he demanded an answer from the person itself

But even with that kind of tone the robed-hooded figure continued to stood in their way as it was nothing at all

At that moment the space around them seemed to start to distort for a bit before returning to normal

Of course both Argos and Fengris were alarmed since the presence of this u l own figure actually distort the space around them

But nevertheless after the space got distorted for a bit, the robed-hooded figure slowly walked away and ignoring Kaido's heed as if he didn't even exist

Naturally when the robed-hooded figure walked away Kaido, Fengris, and Argos immediately ran up to it only to find that the figure suddenly disappeared in this dark hallway

"Did we see a ghost?" Asked Kaido

"Ghost? No way! Ghost aren't a threat after all they can't hurt us" replied Fengris

"They are like a thin paper, so easy to break" commented Argos

After hearing those reply, Kaido seemed to decided to let it off as the three of them walked up to a huge door at the end of the hallway

"If my hunch is right then this should be the throne room" murmured Kaido

"Throne room? Hahaha! This will be great! I call dibs on the chair!" Exclaimed Fengris

"That's... I have no words to say to your stupidness" said Argos"

"Stupidness? Nice one but I like to think of myself as a brave one" replied Fengris

With a creak Kaido finally opened the door leading to the other room and slowly walked inside it

In the slight moment that they entered Kaido seemed to hear a slight different sound Ashe walked in together with the three

Arriving at the throne room Kaido looked around of it and headed towards the only throne inside this space

"By the way... Can I try sitting on if first before letting yourself enjoy it as much as you like?" Asked Kaido as he directed such questions to Fengris

But when he turned around he suddenly noticed that both Argos and Fengris had disappeared behind him as if they got ghosted away

"What the!?!?!"

*********

Unknown to Aileene that something happened inside the castle mysteriously,  she then came face to face Hepta below

"I remember you little girl" teased Aileene

"Little girl? I think you should look up in the mirror if you have any and asked again who's little" argued Hepta

"Hohoho! Sharp tongue I say" exclaimed Aileene

"Of course... But I asked of you to please step aside, I've got something important to do here" said Hepta

"No can do, I'll have you drop out in this stage little girl, or else do you want me to break every damn bone in your body?" Asked Aileene while having a cold tone

"I'd like to see you try old hag!"

After provoking each other offensively Hepta tightened her grip on her halberd and charged up towards Aileene, but before she could take any further close to her, Aileene herself suddenly appeared before her and gave her a heartful punch to her stomach

Blowing her away Hepta then crashed against some pillars and walls that were a design for the front view of the castle

"Guhah!"

Gasping for breath after getting punched, even Hepta herself was surprised to realize that she still felt the indiscribable pain of being punched even though she was already wearing an armor

But as if that wasn't enough to make her submit, Aileene suddenly appeared before her and attacked her with an axe kick

Seeing this Hepta quickly  rolled to the side to dodge such an attack to only get blown away when the ground collapsed, when Aileene's foot made contact to the ground

"Kuh! Such power!"

Flipping her body to an upright position, Hepta then readied herself to counter attack once more, but when she thought that she was ready Aileene once again easily slipped pass her guard and broke her balance when she swiped kicked her legs

Cause of that Hepta then fell to the ground which gave Aileene the chance to spin around and punched her agaisnt the floor

Due to recoil force of Aileene's attack the ground cracked, soil's erupted, and even the debris of the ground blew up as a sign just how strong Aileene's punch were

Naturally Hepta felt that punch as she once more gasped in pain

But without taking a break Aileene then pulled her armor and threw her far off towards the castle walls, thus crashing against it

As she got pinned on it, Aileene then made a far dash before giving her a heavy kick which blew her off the wall

In this slight moment Aileene simply overpowered her in both speed and strength which completely made Hepta unable to counter at all

As if everything was over Aileene then started to walk back towards the castle doors only to suddenly stopped as she felt as tremendous amount of killing intent

Looking back at the place where Hepta shot off, she suddenly froze in place as she got blown away by a huge swing of Hepta's halberd

Crashing agaisnt the stone stairs Aileene then slowly stood up as she observed the wound that was inflicted by her halberd to slowly heal up

"That attack packs quite a punch...  I'm Amazed" praised Aileene

"You bitch! I'll show you what pain feels like"

Gelding unto her halberd she then positioned her swing horizontally as she casted

"Mountain Splitter!"

With a huge swing Aileene then immediately moved inside where range as she countered with her own spell

"Razor claws!!!"

With a huge explosion from the collision of the two attacks Aileene obviously got blown away as some part of her clothes got shredded to pieces

At this moment she was using more than 30% of her power causing her figure to suddenly change from a Loli to a girl figure of an early teenage years

But of course Hepta wasn't planning to just suddenly sit this one out as she stepped up once more and threw her halberd at Aileene in a slightly closed range

Of course Aileene quickly dodged the attack by tilting her body to the side, but when she did that Hepta immediately uses another spell to instantly arrive beside her weapon

Catching her off guard Hepta then once again blown Aileene away as she swung her halberd against her with all her might

This time Aileene flipped and used her claws to stopped her tracks as she charged in once more but at this moment Hepta did something as she casted another spell unto the ground

"Corpse reanimation!"

Using the dead littered bodies of demons on the ground, Hepta suddenly shifted their corpse into one whole abomination much larger than both of them

As the abomination came to life, it suddenly clenched it's fist as it directly lunged towards Aileen and gave a powerful punch

Seeing such monstrosity doing this even Aileene felt like this was just a joke to amuse her, as she too also clenched her fist tightly and gave a huge punch, meeting the attack of the abomination

With both fist collided against each other, Aileene obviously inserted more force unto her attack causing the abomination that Hepta created to blow up right Infront of her

"Your monster is quite squishy" commented Aileene

"Don't get cocky old hag!" Said Hepta as she made a huge swing of her halberd

"Oh how I really hated that word"

In an instant Aileene conjured two short blades in both of her hands

"Lunar blades!"

Meeting with weapon against weapon, both Aileene and Hepta started to engage in a weapon combat as both sides didn't falter even one bit from their enemy

With each strikes waves after waves of shockwaves blew out from this field as both attacks from each female was so strong that it can literally obliterate anyone that is below their level

But of course in this course of combat, Aileene obviously got the upper hand in both weapon arts, strength and magic

Stepping back a little bit Hepta then used another spell as she instantly gathered Mana around her

"Enigma!"

Seeing this Aileene then putted up a barrier

"Blood barrier!"

After taking a huge leap back Aileene then started to counter attack

"Lunar cut!"

Slashing two blade in a cross cut Aileene then directed all of her force on this attack towards Hepta

Faced with this Hepta then started to spin her halberd on her hand before stricking the ground

"Absolute guard!"

With this defensive means Hepta safely blocked an attack from Aileene

Placing more strength unto her shoulders, she then focused on her spell once more as she poured much on this attack and had used it for the third time which really drains her Mana by quite a bit

"World Class Magic: Earth Catastrophe!

In reply to that Aileene also activated her magic

"World Class Magic: Strike of the Valkery!"

"World Class Magic: Bloody Mary!"

Seeing two world class magic simultaneously casted, even Hepta was at a loss for words when she saw this scene and can't believe that Aileene easily double casted a world class magic with ease

"For me this double casting is child's play"

Without any hesitation three world class magic then activated and caused a huge destruction inside the castle walls blowing its own walls of the structure off from it's place and even scattering the army on both side of the opposing force

For a moment cause of the two attacks everything seemed to become blindingly bright as the light coming from the three spells illuminated the world

Using this chance Raguel bursted open the restraints and shot towards the castle in an attempt to take this chance to get inside without Larval even noticing his escape

Through force alone Raguel successfully got inside the castle in an exchange for a major recoil damage coming from the three world class magic which he bypassed

Surprisingly the castle was installed in a defensive array that even world class magic can't easily break causing it to stand firm in face of a huge commotion outside

For a moment the whole world seemed to realize how insignificant they are in face of real powerhouses
