Chapter 793 263 - The Perserios Border (Part 1)

The mountain range at the border of the Perserios territory turned into a hellscape.

Thousands of monsters were rushing down the slopes and onto the plain, flooding the area like a ceaseless infestation.

The countless spell were raining down on them – the barrage of fire, ice, and light. Hundreds of monsters were being incapacitated and trampled by their brethren in the mad stampede but still, plenty were able to pass and enter the close range with the magic soldiers engaging in a bloody and ruthless battle.

"DAMN FILTH!"

The young heir of the Perserios territory, Devios Elef Perserios roared raising his hands into the sky. At his command, a gigantic block of ice condensed and smashed into the oncoming monsters crushing tens of hundreds of them and creating a massive obstacle many were unable to cross.

"LAW OF TAURUS!" "LAW OF SAGITTARIUS!"

*CRUSH*

Still, the ice shattered within seconds as the beasts with silver orbs above their heads roared and attacked it channeling the star's power.

"YOU MARTIAL ARTISTS BELIEVE THAT I CAN'T DEAL WITH YOU?!"

Devios howled in anger, waving his hand to the side and instantly conjuring hundreds of ice spears that all aimed at the most troublesome opponents who resisted magic.

"HMPH!"

Even so, the transformed martial artists either dodged the attacks or took them head-on and shrugged off the ice as merely a mild inconvenience.

"FOOL! YOU CAN TURN THIS LAND INTO A DESERT AND STILL WON'T ACHIEVE SHIT!"

A gray-skinned giant with one eye and a silver sphere above its head laughed and its sonorous voice echoed through the area.

"SHUT THE FUCK UP!" *STAB*

Devios roared in response, using the chance and the natural moisture under the giant's feet to create a spire that impaled him all the way through.

The silver orb above the killed giant disappeared and its body turned into a corpse of a black-haired man with a black crystal embedded in his forehead.

"Lord Perserios! The monsters are passing through the Parrats' territory and are trying to route us!"

"WHAT?!"

One of the soldiers ran up to the young nobleman and cried out in despair causing Devios to growl in fury.

"WHAT ARE THOSE FUCKERS DOING?!"

He shouted while running death upon the monsters, thinning out their ranks as much as possible to give his forces a chance.

"My lord...! Some of the Parrats' army deserted!"

"THEY DID WHAT?!"

The soldier trembled to Devios's outrage.

"FUCK! GET A WIND MAGICIAN TO SEND THE REQUEST FOR REINFORCEMENT TO THE CAPITAL! AT THIS POINT WE WILL GET OVERRUN WITHOUT EVEN SEEING A SINGLE BARABARIACCA SOLDIER!"

"Y-yes, sir!"

The young noble ordered and the soldier cowered and rushed away.

"BIG SISTER! WITHDRAW AND TAKE THE FIRE AND WIND MAGES AND MOVE TOWARDS PARRATS TERRITORY!"

Devios looked around and spotted Rokiana fighting with the monsters on the frontline.

"HOW?!"

The woman glowing with the blue light of enchantments beheaded an armored wolf and shouted back while casting a water bubble to shield other knights from the acid spray of the frenzied deer-like monsters they were pushing back.

"GHHH...!"

Devios bare his teeth in response and slammed his hand to the ground.

*SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH*

The temperature plummeted causing humans' and monsters' teeth to chatter and a freezing cold rain showered down turning monsters into ice sculptures within seconds.

"NOW!"

Devios roared knowing full well that the beasts will break out of the confines within seconds while the ones outside of the range of the spell were still rushing at them.

"YOU HEARD THE YOUNG LORD! FIRE AND WIND MAGICIANS FOLLOW ME!"

Rokaina didn't hesitate and pulled back while shouting a command.

"I WILL TEACH YOU WHY PERSERIOS TERRITORY IS AN IMPREGNABLE WALL OF THE BELLCEPHORA KINGDOM!"

Devios roared as the transformed marital artists unaffected by the freezing rain moved out to the front.

...that was the situation in which Zoemi, Moxeoni, Mizoe, and one other light corpse puppet arrived to...

"Dad, miss Rokiana is leading soldiers that way, join her. Moexeoni, you and the other one go with him."

The black-haired young man commanded and the others nodded back before rushing off.

"...now then... Leo..."

Zoemi nodded to himself walking towards the chaotic frontline and activating his star power.

"STOP!"

"!!!"

He roared and an oppressive aura spread around, washing over the humans and monsters alike causing most of them to grind to a halt.

"Fuck you all." *WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO*

Zoemi scoffed and in an instant, the mountains turned into a sea of raging flames roasting the monster's stampede.

"AQUARIUS!" x40

"...!"

But before the beasts died, the transformed marital artists fought back, cleansing the area around them from flames, shocking Zoemi.

Law of Aquarius was the cleansing power – but it normally cleansed poisons, mana included – to have it get rid of the hazard such as fire that was controlled by star power, the level of the law must have been very high.

pαпdα-ňᴏνê|·сóМ This meant that the martial artists amongst the ranks of the enemy couldn't be just random stragglers.

"The hell...? Is Heavenly Star nation allies with Barbariacca nation?!"

Zoemi gasped to himself while his attack was neutralized after killing only the weakest monsters.

"Zoemi?! Thank the heavens!"

Still, his help was greatly appreciated by Devios who let out a relieved gasp after spotting the black-haired man at the back of the defense line.

"WHAT SECTS ARE YOU FROM?!"

Zoemi acknowledged Devios with a nod before running into the sky and calling to the transformed martial artists and calling out to them.

"LAW OF SAGITTARIUS!" x10

But the only answer he got was in form of beams of concentrated star power shot out by the marital artist capable of using the right law.

The silver beams all hit their target but had no effect on the Heavenly Star Warrior.

"...so be it... Cancer."

Zoemi breathed out with a cold expression and activated the same star power that all of the enemy martial artists were using.

A thin layer of silver mist emerged from his body and rose above his head concentrating and creating a silver orb.

With it followed a transformation - the body of the black-haired young man grew into a monstrous size and became covered with obsidian-like scales.

The beastly form Zoemi took on was a mix between a dragon and a humanoid wolf, funny enough it resembled a monstrous bear in a way.

*THUMP* *RUMBLE*

The transformed Zoemi dropped to the ground, crushing the panicked monsters under his humongous paws and tail.

"Surrender or perish."

The obsidian bear-like beast bellowed and his voice echoed through the mountains.
