Chapter 704 Death Presence



Despite the lesser dwarves pursuing Angus's group, his burden is still not lessened. In fact, he couldn't even make a single mistake during this time as more sixth-grade dwarves swarmed at them.

Unlike Nirvas or other kingdoms that only have a few sixth-grade combatants, the Undermine Council is filled with many dwarves that reach sixth grade. 

Although most of them are apathetic people and do not participate in this mess, some sixth graders could still make any seventh-grade run for their life. This force is also why people didn't dare to cause trouble during the Undermine Council.

Still, Angus is confident they could escape from these people anytime. Furthermore, he just needs to prevent these people from making big moves to stop Porky. Angus only needs to cast long-range spells to disrupt these people's actions.

Angus' move makes them hate him more. Angus' spell is incapable of truly hurting them. Still, it is enough to prevent them from gathering power and using strong moves to stop the giant Porky. 

Moreover, Angus completely grasps everyone's actions. Even the ones that hid or were protected by others also couldn't escape from his spells.

Meanwhile, a few groups gather on the street's corner inside the chaotic Undermine Council. Everyone in this group wears special robes and white armor with emblems.

"What a mess… I didn't expect so many heretics in this place." said one of the white armored people.

"Yeah. I didn't expect those monsters to gather at the same place." said another white-clothed person.

"Hmph!! This must be because of that monster girl. Can you see she is different from the rest? We should use this opportunity to kill her." said another person with white clothes.

"What did you think, Master Baltior? I heard your group had some dispute with Heart Kingdom before." said another white armored person.

Another white armored person didn't reply and looked at the giant pig in the distance before shaking his head.

"If it is other monster people, we will help eliminate them. But, it is a different case for her. You can do what you want. The Temple of Death will not obstruct you nor help you." said Baltior decisively.

"Why?!! That's just another heretic." retorted another white armored person.

Baltior didn't reply, only sharply gazing at this person sternly, which made the other person step back subconsciously.

"As the one that serves the Lady of Death, we are very sensitive about souls and Death. Although we were missing a saint as our spokesperson, we could still communicate with the Lady somehow. Some of our members even could predict their own end."

"And whenever we are dealing with those three young people, the only end for us is Death. As a fellow religious group, I suggest you give up pursuing them. No one could escape from Death." said Baltior cryptically before leaving with his group.

The other gathering religious group could only grimace at this statement. They know the power of Baltior. Unlike the different religious groups, the Temple of Death didn't have a saint that could not produce a Champion of God.

Therefore, all their sixth-grade combatants are talented people who reach sixth grade through their own effort without the grace of their God or external help. Among them, Baltior is one of the strongest sixth-grade holy knights.

His strength reached the level of pseudo-seventh grade and he could beat the other holy knights that gathered in this place alone.

At first, they decide to stay at the Undermine Council to hunt Haidem, as it is their job to eliminate these monster people. Now, they are starting to hesitate to pursue these people. If they act carelessly, the other monster people will not stay idle.

It is even possible that little Anna will also be involved during this crucial time. Therefore, they decide to join hands to destroy these people. Unfortunately, they didn't expect their strongest combatant to withdraw before they could act.

"Hmph… What rubbish!! In my opinion, they are just afraid to offend the Heart Kingdom." said one of the holy knights.

"I am not too sure about that." said another holy knight.

"What did you mean, Master Archie?" asked another holy knight.

"If it is another member of the Temple of Death, you may disregard them. But Baltior is different. His death prediction is accurate, rarely wrong." said Archie, the Holy Knight of Karum.

"Then, what should we do? Did you want to let them go just like this?!!" asked a holy knight in anger.

"Calm down, Master Garion. I think we should wait and see for an opportunity. I doubt the dwarves will let these people go rampant like this. I also think these dwarves will do something big that affects everyone." said Archie.

"At that time, it will not be too late to eliminate them at once after they are exhausted." added Archie.

"I agree with Master Archie. We should wait for the right opportunity to kill those monster people. Otherwise, we will be the one that gets eliminated. Although I don't mind sacrificing my life for the lord, I still don't want to waste my life in the hopeless battle." said another holy knight.

Hearing this, all the other holy knights slowly agreed with Archie's suggestion. They decided to wait for an excellent opportunity to strike. This discussion does not escape Baltior's ear. However, Baltior didn't comment anything, only shook his head.

Since they want to grace his Lady of Death, he will also not stop them, as Death is fair to everyone. After being robbed of Bloody Star, the number one assassin organization, Baltior also starts to pay attention to Anna and Heart Kingdom's situation. 

At first, he thought his subordinate and the report were too exaggerated, as they even suggested moving their branch to another location. However, after witnessing Angus and the others, he knows the horror of these little groups. 

He finds these three people are entirely abnormal. Be it the little girl Anna, the princess Jayna, or even Baron Angus Victory. He could see a death presence among the three if he dared to mess with them, especially on Angus. 

Angus' presence of Death is so thick that it covers both Anna and Jayna at the same time. If he didn't feel any divine energy in Angus, he might have thought Angus was their Champion of God or someone chosen by their Lady of Death. 

Moreover, this presence keeps accumulating each time passing by, albeit very little. But he could feel it getting stronger slowly.

"Master Baltior, are you sure we shouldn't help them?" asked one of the nearby holy knights.

"No, we should never get involved with them." stated Baltior clearly.

"Why? Aren't they the ones that cause us to lose so much?" asked the holy knight.

"Say, did you think you could mobilize all the high-ranking members of Bloody Star all over the globe with just money?" asked Baltior.

"T-That's…" replied the holy knight speechlessly.

After a thorough investigation, they know the one that hit them is Bloody Star. However, they didn't dare to hit back at this group as this group is one of the strongest forces in the world. Still, they manage to trace back who is giving them orders and find it turns out Angus.

What makes them confused is why the famous Bloody Star accepts such a request with an only money payment. Everyone knows that Bloody Star's service is costly. Unless the person is ready to throw everything they have, they will not accept such a request, no matter how simple.

Yet, Bloody Star still receives the request with the payment of money. Although the money payment is enormous, hiring all high-ranking members inside Bloody Star is still insufficient.

This makes the Temple of Death not dare to move more toward Angus, especially after knowing that Angus is on their protected person list. If they move carelessly, they may invoke not only the wrath of two seventh-grade combatants but also the whole Bloody Star.

During this time, Anna jumps around cheerfully while leading the giant Porky. Then, she somehow noticed something in the distance.

"Hmmm…. Daddy!! Daddy!!" called Anna while scrutinizing something from far away.

"What is it, Anna?!" asked Angus to arrive on Anna's side without stopping shooting spells.

"Anna finds an ugly big metallic bubble in the front." replied Anna.

"An ugly big metallic bubble?!" exclaimed Angus before noticing a huge metallic machine dozens of kilometers away after using [Greater Mana Echolation]

The machine is so huge and looks menacing. A lot of steam and smoke came out of it. From his scanning, Angus could find that this artificial metallic golem was made on the spot using the surrounding material.

Many parts of it are made of rubble, stone, windows, and even doors. Witnessing this, Angus finally understood why the dwarves are the best race for craftsmanship. They could build something like this on the spot using the surrounding material to match the giant Porky.

"Stop them!! Go, Super Undermine Mecha Ultra!!" shouted one of the dwarves who sat at the top of the giant golem.

"Hey, it is called Plus Metallic Super Golem!!" retorted another dwarf.

"No way, it should be called Super Duper Deus Mecha!!" retorted another dwarf.

Soon, all the dwarves start to argue with each other about the giant golem's name.

"Ugly. Porky, destroy it!!" ordered Anna while pouting.
