Chapter 186 : Who?
Chapter 186 Chapter 186: Who?
Back on the battlefield, the Generals finally managed to find a momentary respite as the Divine Queen took over the battle, starting his onslaught.
She didn't need a tactical plan. Her strength was brutal, a sight that most people had never seen. All the citizens watched the Swords falling from the sky, as if it was a punishment from heaven itself.
The Demons that appeared invincible to the ordinary citizens were now completely helpless, overwhelmed by the sheer force and power of the Divine Queen's onslaught.
The humans who were wounded, the humans who were hiding, the humans who had lost their loved ones to the demons, everyone looked up. Some had tears of happiness in their eyes, looking at the Divine Queen as their God and Protector.
Others stood in awe, their faith and hope rekindled, believing that maybe, just maybe, this Nightmare was soon going to be over.
The Demons had a strong skin and a healing skill, yet it was all useless at the moment.
Every Single Demon fell on the ground, cut in two halves because of the Giant Swords.
The Demons could neither run, nor protect themselves. One of the Demons reached out his hand to block the Sword of Aura. Unfortunately, his hand was sliced off and the Demon let out a blood-curdling scream of roar and despair. His roar didn't last long as the sword sliced his head next.
Within seconds, everything was over. Even the Guards could only watch in awe.
Feeling the Divine Queen's aura that could be felt over the entire city, the Various Clans Leaders were shocked.
"That woman went there herself?"
The Leaders couldn't believe that the woman went there herself. They had intentionally sent their ordinary clan members to aid the Royal Guards because they didn't think this was beyond the control of the Royal Guards.
But now the entire situation was different. The Queen herself went there, which only showed how much she paid attention to this matter. They could only imagine how angry she was going to be if she was there and saw that ordinary clan members were sent there.
The Leaders, Elders and even the Ancestors of various clans flew out, rushing as fast as they could be. They knew that the Queen's presence meant that the situation had escalated to a dire level.
Even they were scared to face her anger.
As the Leaders of various clans arrived at the place, they were greeted with a sight of absolute devastation. Many of the buildings were destroyed in the place, and death could be felt in the air. It was worse than they expected.
The bodies of the Demons were lying everywhere, with not a single one of them left alive.
All the Leaders looked at the Queen who stood tall, her robe gleaming in the sunlight, radiating power. However, her attention wasn't on them. She wasn't even looking in their direction even though it was evident that she had sensed then.
The Clan Leaders looked in the direction where the Queen was looking. In that area, not many people were present. Even the number of dead bodies in that zone was really low. The body of a Demon was lying there.
The way that Demon died was different from the way all other demons died, which made it certain that there was another person who killed one of those demons. It was clear that someone had stopped the Demon, giving people an opportunity to escape.
They really wondered who killed him. If the Demons were so strong that the Divine Queen had to come out, then they really wondered who did it.
The Clan Leaders hesitated a little before approaching the Queen to respectfully greet her, hoping that she wasn't angry at them.
They flew closer, but instead of looking at that, the Divine Queen still looked in the same direction. There was a frown on her face.
The Clan Leaders stopped next to her. They opened their lips to greet her, but before they could utter a single word, she flew away. Her speed was something that they couldn't even compare. It was as if she just disappeared.
They looked all around, trying to find her. But in the end, they only found her next to the Demon's body in the place she was looking at.
She wasn't looking at the Demon though. It was clear for her who had killed that Demon, but something else caught her attention.
She stepped inside the nearby abandoned building. The Clan Leaders just looked from the distance, unable to grasp what was happening to her. This time, they didn't follow after her.
Inside the building, the Divine Queen stood in silence, looking at the body of a young man. The man was her General. She also remembered him a little as he was somewhat talented.
Usually, she wasn't one to frown if a General had died as that only meant they were weak and couldn't defeat their enemy. But her attention was on the left arm of the man at the moment.
Since she saw the man before, she knew that he had a high grade Celestial Spirit and his Spirit Mark was on his left hand. However, at the moment, his left hand was completely blank.
Frowning, she stepped closer. She placed the man, trying to see through his memories. Usually, it was impossible to see the memories of a person if they died, but that didn't deter her.
She placed her hand on the forehead of the Young General. The black book in her hand shone mysteriously. After a few seconds, she stepped back, still frowning.
She could see the memories of a dead person, but that didn't work here either. The General's mind was already destroyed with Soul Search before he was killed, which left no memories at all. Moreover, too much time had passed since he died, and couldn't be helped.
"Who...?" She pondered, her eyes remained fixated on the left arm of the man.𝙗𝙚𝒅𝒏𝒐𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝒐𝒎
