Chapter 324 60
Kalya and the girls were blown away from Ziel\'s location and stopped at the edge of the floating island. They tried to break the barrier that enveloped them, but the girls\' efforts were in vain as Ziel had made it stronger and would make things difficult for them, even if Azalia and the others combined their powers.
"Break it for me!" Azalia roared and used all her strength to break the barrier. Unfortunately, her attacks couldn\'t even scratch the surface.
"Why did he do this!? Why did he make this barrier so hard!? Ken! Get us out! Otherwise, I will be angry with you!?" Azalia screamed from the depths of her lungs, hoping that Ziel would hear and let them go.
"Are you serious about what you just said and will be angry with him if he doesn\'t let you go?" Kalya asked.
"You... Can you still calm down in this situation!? Can\'t you see that Ziel is in danger!? The Chaos Titan is so terrifying! Much more powerful than the continent\'s guardians that have appeared so far!" Azalia shouted angrily at Kalya. Her uneasy feelings for Ziel made her more temperamental, and she couldn\'t keep her composure.
"Did you think that we weren\'t worried about him!? Do you think that we don\'t want to get out of here!? We are as worried as you are!? But there\'s no point in panicking and attacking the barrier like that!? We must find the right way to destroy it and not waste energy for nothing!" Kalya was not happy with Azalia\'s words.
"That is... I\'m sorry. Please forget what I said before. Can you explain this situation? What did the Chaos Titan say to Ziel? What exactly is their relationship?" Azalia had to admit that Kalya\'s words were true. She felt guilty for not being able to maintain her composure in such a situation. Then Azalia tried to change the topic because she was embarrassed by her lousy prejudice against Kalya.
Kalya and the girls were slightly surprised when they heard Azalia\'s words. They didn\'t expect a princess from the divine race with true god power to apologize so easily. Kalya knew Azalia very well. She knew Azalia had pride and arrogance to the bone, which was only natural because of her outstanding appearance and strength. In addition, she was a Princess of the strongest race in the divine realm.
Azalia was only gentle on Ziel or when she was with him. But now she is behaving like that to Kalya and the girls. It was beyond their expectations, and the girls were happy that Azalia had become more approachable.
"Of course. those two are Ziel\'s parents..." Kalya explained about Ziel\'s parents, who are from the gray-haired minority, about Ziel\'s investigation into their village and what he had found there.
"I see. Why do I feel that things are so coincidental?" Azalia nodded and pondered after hearing Kalya\'s explanation. She felt that there was something strange about Ziel\'s life after reincarnation.
(Why did Ziel get born into that gray-haired clan that has ties to the guardian of the continent? Is this just a coincidence? But this feels a little strange and makes no sense. He was born in that clan out of the many races on the Clorius continent.
Doesn\'t that mean since being reborn, he is bound to the guardian of the continent? Is Ziel\'s ability to absorb the power of the continent\'s guardians also related to that? Has someone set it up? But what kind of creature could do such a thing?)
Azalia felt a chill run down her spine as she came to that conclusion. The more she thought about it, the more scared she became. Azalia couldn\'t and didn\'t dare to dig deeper into the matter.
"Azalia, what happened to you? Are you okay?" Kalya and the girls looked at Azalia worriedly. Her body suddenly trembled, and her face turned pale after hearing Kalya\'s story.
"Ah, I\'m fine. We better quickly think of a way to get out of here and help Ken." Azalia smiled weakly and shook her head. The care of the girls warmed her heart.
"You are right. The longer we are confined here, the longer Ziel will fight alone. We know that Ziel did it for our good. So how can we stand by and watch him fight against such a monstrous creature alone." Kalya nodded in agreement with Azalia\'s words and looked at the girls around her.
"Yes. We have to get out of here right away!"
"We promised to live and die together with him. So we must fight by his side no matter how dangerous it is!"
"If we just surrender to being confined within this barrier..."
"...then that shows that we are weak women and don\'t deserve him."
Clara and the others showed their determined faces. The girls loved Ziel greatly, and each was not inferior to the other, regardless of who had known him the longest. They nodded, released their power simultaneously, and compressed it to the extreme.
(I don\'t know and don\'t want to care who you are, Ken. I will stand by your side no matter who your enemy is, even if it\'s the world)
Azalia looked at where Ziel was with a gentle expression and eyes full of love.
After the power of Kalya and the girls were perfectly compressed, they smashed it against the barrier. At the same time, there was a loud explosion at the location where Ziel and the Chaos Titan were fighting.
Boooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmm!
***
Ziel charged forward to attack the Chaos Titan at full speed. But that creature didn\'t show any signs of moving or attacking Ziel. He just stood there looking at Ziel with his emotionless eyes. Then the Chaos Titan opened his mouth when he saw Ziel had approached him.
[World Destroyer]
[Finger]
Ziel\'s face sank when he saw the scene before his eyes. It was the attack that the Chaos Titan had used on him back at the Cottage. Ziel quickly created a barrier in front of him to block the finger.
[Impenetrable Fortress]
Booooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
Crack!
But Ziel\'s barrier quickly cracked when it collided with the Chaos Titan\'s attack, and the giant finger shot toward him without losing strength and momentum. But Ziel remained calm under the pressure because he knew the barrier would not last long. He just wanted to buy himself a few seconds to prepare his counterattack.
The black sword in Ziel\'s right hand shook violently as he overcompressed it with the Sacred Demonel\'s power. After the blade stabilized and stopped shaking, he swung it toward the Chaos Titan\'s attack.
The grayish-black giant aura blade collided with the big finger and created a terrifying explosion in the sky.
Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooommmmm!
Ziel was knocked back by the intense shockwave after the clash. But he quickly stabilized himself and compressed his strength into his white sword. Ziel condensed his mana and aura until it formed a thick layer on the blade and slashed it out.
[Dimensional Splitter]
The space around the Chaos Titan split in two but quickly returned to its original state. Ziel\'s expression changed when he saw the sight. That attack should be enough to kill a dozen true gods at once, but it couldn\'t injure that creature. But Ziel quickly regained his composure and intended to move away from that place to arrange his next attack.
The Chaos Titan dealt another attack to Ziel after seeing that the other party was intent on keeping his distance from him.
[World Destroyer]
[Punch]
A gigantic fist of condensing a massive mass of energy appeared in the sky and headed towards Ziel.
Ziel\'s face sank as he felt the terror of the attack. He was sure that the fist was much more powerful than the giant finger.
The entire floating island and its castle would be destroyed if the attack hit the ground. The girls who were still around the area would also be in danger. Ziel had to stop the giant fist no matter what.
Ziel stowed his black sword into his space storage and extended his palm towards the attack that came at him. Ziel released the power of the three guardians of the continent, and a giant magic circle formed in front of him. The energy was concentrated in the center of the magic circle and became a sphere.
[Dragonic Cannon]
Ziel fired a giant laser beam to counter the enormous fist of the energy mass. The two attacks collided and shattered the surrounding space with a tremendous shockwave.
The floating island shook violently, and the majestic castle collapsed under the impact. Ziel was blown away and fell to the ground while vomiting blood. He felt pain all over his body as many of his internal organs were damaged.
[Stop your futile resistance, my son. Give your life for the peace of this continent. At least it will make your death quicker and less painful]
The Chaos Titan said in an emotionless voice, sounding more like a command to Ziel.
"I will still die if I give up. So I better fight and determine my destiny with my strength. After all, this battle is far from over, and the outcome is yet to be determined. You better not be too full of yourself." Ziel said coldly and raised his hand. A majestic magic circle formed above the Chaos Titan, rotating and creating a vortex.
[Heavenly Judgment]
A massive pillar of light emerged from the magic circle and fell on top of the Chaos Titan, but the other party just stood still as the attack engulfed him.
Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmm!
Ziel narrowed his eyes and waited for the result of his attack.
[Is that so?]
A voice like a robot rang out from within the light pillar.
Ziel\'s face became severe after hearing that voice because the same thing happened again. His attacks didn\'t work on the Chaos Titan.
"What happened? How come my attacks do not affect him?" Ziel muttered and analyzed the possibilities in his mind.
"Is he immune to magic attacks? Then I will hit him with a physical attack." Ziel said calmly. He raised his hand again and a portal formed in the sky.
[Sky of Apocalypse]
A large boulder several kilometers in size emerged from the portal and fell at high speed towards the Chaos Titan. It\'s an asteroid, and Ziel isn\'t just pulling one out of space but dozens at a time.
[Fall!] x16
The asteroids fell and hit the Chaos Titan\'s body.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Booooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmm!
Ziel looked thoughtfully at the location where the asteroids fell but frowned when he saw the Chaos Titan not moving from where he was standing. He seemed unconcerned with the attack and was sure it wouldn\'t hurt him.
[Invulnerable Chaos Body]
Ziel raised his eyebrows when he faintly heard the Chaos Titan\'s voice from within the smoke and dust that covered the area. After the smoke and dust dissipated, the Chaos Titan was standing in the same place in a state of well-being. He didn\'t even move an inch from there.
"Is that ability that makes your body immune to any attack?" Ziel said while breathing heavily. He had used too much of his power in his consecutive attacks.
[You are right. I don\'t need to hide it from you. People with power below me can\'t hurt this body of mine. If you want to scratch it, you should at least use an attack with an amount of energy equal to or greater than mine]
Chaos Titan admits it without hesitation.
"I understand." Ziel nodded and replied. After knowing that, Ziel didn\'t panic in the slightest and instead smiled because he felt that he could still have a chance to win that battle.
[If you understand, then stop your futile resistance]
The Chaos Titan tries to persuade Ziel again.
"You misunderstood what I said. I understand that our strengths differ greatly. But that doesn\'t mean I don\'t have any chance of winning at all. I need to fight with my full strength. If I die, then blame the weak me." Ziel said nonchalantly and pulled out his black sword again. He was ready to charge forward to attack the Chaos Titan and try the plan he had just thought of.
[Alright, if that is your decision. Then, die]
[World Destroyer]
[Trample]
A giant foot suddenly appeared and covered the sky. Ziel\'s body trembled slightly from feeling the overwhelming power of the attack. He gripped his two swords tightly and shot towards the big foot while swinging both simultaneously.
[Cross Blade of Annihilation]
The X-shaped aura blade collided with the giant foot in the sky. This time no explosions occurred, and their attacks pushed each other.
"I won\'t lose! I will not die in this world, in this era! I will protect my family! The people who are important to me!" Ziel roared and looked at the attack in the sky with bloodshot eyes. He unleashed all his power and pushed the giant foot away.
All the pores on his body were bleeding from forcing himself to use a force that exceeded the limits of his physical abilities.
"This is not enough!" Ziel was about to squeeze even more strength out of his body, but a voice appeared and stopped him.
"That\'s enough, Ziel. You\'re not alone. We are here for you and will fight with you."
