Ascension of the Nephilim

Chapter 382 Saving The Land



The war began as Kyros charged toward the hordes of Brimstone Beasts. His numerous summons shot out and attacked the Brimstone Beasts in perfect coordination as Kyros began to fight the enemy at close range.

A giant Brimstone Beasts roared and charged at Kyros, who flew straight for it.

Kyros didn\'t retreat, and he directly stabbed his sword right onto the Brimstone Beast without even sending his numerous swords or summons to attack it. Instead, Kyros flew in at top speed and made a strong stab at the giant\'s core.

STAB!

The penetration of the core allowed Kyros to pour in the power of light, and with the power of Light Evangelism, he charged the energy into the brimstone beast\'s soul and caused the power to free the numerous souls bound in the brimstone hell.

The core exploded out, and the energy was leaking. However, the souls were free, and some even became the Swords of Light that Kyros had previously summoned. The conversion of many righteous souls was enough for them to become swords of light and serve Kyros through the power of Charm.

The light and dark Prime Clone made their attacks as they charged down and wielded one of the swords that Kyros summoned.

SLASH! SLASH!

The two Prime Clones of light and darkness halted the giant from using its giant hands to attack Kyros as their swords struck the arms.

Kyros kept pouring out more and more energy, and it began to release the souls and disperse the energy.

Unlike when they killed the Brimstone Beast, this giant beast could no longer reform and cause other Brimstone beasts to rise as the souls locked in its hell were released. More and more of the Swords of Light appeared as the giant\'s core dimmed as it lost all power.

Kyros then commanded all the Swords of Light and poured his power into them.

The swords flew out and made slashing attacks on the many Brimstone Beasts.

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

The weak swords had very little strength. It was barely at the level of a mid-captain and had less than a hundred points in strength. But a strange power was imbued in them that allowed them to make a small wound at each strike.

"[Swords of Severing Light]!" Kyros shouted, and the power of True Cut was imbued on all swords.

There were now over thirty swords that charged and attacked the nearby brimstone beast, with every strike causing damage. Finally, the swords crowded over on Brimstone beast.

The four golems that Kyros summoned also wielded the swords and used their strength, which could reach over a hundred points, to attack the other beasts. But just like before, their swords had True Cut!

The two, Prime Clones and the four Golem Summons, flew out and attacked. Their slashes and strikes could instantly kill most Brimstone Beast that hadn\'t reached Champion level.

Kyros also continued to attack and focused on more and more of the larger Brimstone Beasts. Again, he would stab to the core to free the energy, but most of the time, no Swords of Light would appear to serve him.

The Swords of Light borne from the slain giant soon disappeared, and only a few of the recently converted souls remained. But none of the twenty that Kyros summoned through his sword vanished but were only weakening at each attack.

But suddenly, a massive light shone all over the place.

Listrel\'s power began to appear as she created a massive mirror wall that stood behind them and began to shed light energy from the brimstone beasts.

Listrel made wide slashes that sent out beams of light at every slash.

Unlike the rest, Lea had no soil in her soul that could be used to plant the seed. But a mystery was revealed! Listrel belonged to the many Dryad races! They were the humans charged by the goddess who planted all plants and trees, beginning with numerous Yggdrasil, and charged the descendants of the kings of the Planesworld to take care of it!

This was why Listrel learned of the powers of the Dryads, and numerous World Wood Trees were raised in the High Lands.

So instead of a seed, Listrel managed to create a leaf.

The power of that the leaf the Dryad gifted her allowed her to gather and absorb light energy. The absorption translated to the regeneration of her wounds and the recovery of Force and Magic energy. She had become a truly angelic being that thrived in the light.

,m With the light that her mirrors reflected and turned into light energy, the swords that Kyros used were slowly regenerating, improving their durability. This was the teamwork that Kyros envisioned for the two of them.

The pair fought as the vanguard who would block the charge of the Brimstone beasts on one side, while Mechiel and Lea fought on the other side.

Listrel had the leaf with no seed, but Lea had the seed that could not bud.

The power of the seed was similar to Mechiel. But while Mechiel\'s seed was Blood Core, Lea had that of dark water.

The pair could harness the power of water through the Cores they had and fought with the same strategy they revealed in the previous battle. However, the pair were not as aggressive as Kyros and Listrel and fought just close to the army of mechs that were now shooting their arrows at the weakened Brimstone beasts.

Mechiel used the power of her blood core to send out small darts that weakened the Brimstone Beasts and would reveal their shells.

Lea was rushing and clearing the brimstone beasts that would approach and fight the enemies at close range. She didn\'t fear the elves\' arrows as the elves were too skilled to hit her.

The battle continued with the Nephilim Liberation Army gaining more and more ground. Soon, only the eastern front had Brimstone Beast as the Liberation Army managed to gain grounds.

The war machines that wielded woods rained down and pushed back the beasts.

At that moment, Kyros and the three no longer fought in the front lines as they had already established a stronghold for the archers to stand their ground.

Mechs of massive sizes wielding large iron weapons were at the front and fought the Brimstone Beasts at close range. The archers didn\'t shoot out their bows wastefully but only attacked to limit the number of Brimstone beasts that the front lines had to face.

Kyros and his three companions, along with Aubrey and Logon, now stood before the King of the Demi-Humans.

"Well, met! Our liberators and saviors! I am King Rivarridon Rock. The King of this dying lands!" The Demi-human King greeted. His skin was dark, and as a demi-human, his eyes looked strange, and he had a tail. But other than that, his features looked very human.

"King Rivarridon. I am Kyros. The one that the elves called Lord Miracle and the leader of the Nephilim Liberation Army. I stand before you with a plea. Just as you saved us, I ask you to join us and abandon your home to save the land and other kingdoms."

King Rivarridon was startled at the sudden declaration.

"Lord Kyros the Miracle... While your words truly inspire courage, I have to ask. Is it possible? The million brimstone beast have grown in number. Many more stand before you. From the wooden gears, I can tell the elves had desecrated their very homes to march here!"

"We did not desecrate our father. Instead, he chose to save his sons and daughters." Aubrey began.

Rivarridon turned to Aubrey and recognized her.

"A few years ago, we stood as enemies, Aubrey. But now, I apologize for my unkind comment, and I thank you for saving us. But be not angry at my next question. Can the wood that you use be enough for the demonic flames of those beasts? Their numbers are more than the sands in this very desert!"

"The Wood has returned." Aubrey smiled.

"The Wood has returned?" Rivarridon repeated.

"When I said, save the land, I meant to redeem it. I take it that your castle could only stand for another few months before your people die of thirst, correct?"

"That is true. For a year now, no rain has fallen. These beasts have destroyed the weather and ways of the land."

"Our march here was not just a march of warfare. My people have regained the power we lost long ago. Behind these desolate mountains are now forests and valleys blooming with life."

"What?!"

"The wood will not run out anymore. Yggdrasil himself is fighting with us!"

"Can it be true?!" One of the advisors asked.

"You claim that no rain has fallen for a year. Would you believe us if the rain falls once more?" Kyros smiled.

"The rains? If such a miracle happens, then we would believe it!"

"Mechiel? Lea?" Kyros smiled and turned to the two, who were constantly using their powers.
