Paragon of Death

262 Chapter 261: Grand Ascension

Damon sat in a cross-legged position as his power surged dangerously, shattering the world around him. His eyes looked down as he saw a silver flash on the death mountain and from it Blink emerged with a shocked expression on his face.

“Master….” Blink muttered.

Hearing this Damon felt like his heart was breaking. The man standing before him now was once a little kid who was used as a weapon to take his life.

The kid has gone through his share of rough times and hard times but yet, but he found a way to make it this far. If not for anything, he deserved Damon’s respect.

“Come,” Damon said and stretched his hand out to the young lad.

Xiu!

Blink appeared in front of the fierce storm created by the excess power surging from Damon.

“This is my final gift to you. The power to stand against the heavens even in my absence. That way the palace of death will never be weak!” Damon’s eyes flashed with cruelty as he struck forward and the rainbow-colored energy from his body surged into the silver Diamond in Blink’s chest, turning it a rainbow.

Blink looked up and saw Damon’s body slowly fading and he bowed respectfully with tearful eyes. Across the empire were forces of death both the living and the dead. The gem on Blink’s chest turned black as his hair turned black and green as an immense death aura exploded from his body. His eyes turned pitch black and everyone behind him felt the blood boil just like when Damon was the one leading them.

.....

Swish!

Countless images surged through his mind as if Damon’s knowledge of the death magic had been transferred to him.

“Take care of him for me…. Protect him with your life! He is your new Emperor” Damon declared in a cold tone.

Yes, your Majesty!

For the final time, the entire undead army and forces of the palace of death fell to their knees and bowed. Their time with Damon was a short while and honestly, they didn’t get to see him much due to his injuries at the time but the fact that the empire exists is proof of his greatness. The fact that the empire won this war mere minutes after he got involved was enough proof of his strength!

He was truly the absolute as a mortal!

Heh!

The site alone was enough to make Damon smile. At this moment he could only look up and nothing else. He grasped the heavens and pulled following this massive explosion was a mighty gate forming with six stairs.

“Come, let’s go wipe out the new gods and make this world ours again!” Damon said at the Six guardian spirits kneeling behind him. He wore a crazed smile on his face. As he took the first step forward with a cruel smile.

Swearing allegiance to him pulled down the power of these six to the angel realm and now they were ascending again just a few minutes after they lost their strength and even now they felt far stronger than ever before.

At this point, none of these Guardian spirits regretted their decision to follow Damon. For a reason watching his back made them feel safe and they were sure they weren’t the only ones who shared this sentiment.

The six turned to look at the mortal world again and they were stunned to see everyone kneeling with their heads bowed. Both friends and foes bowed to this kid who they watched grow from a boy to a God. Even if they carried any resentment in their heart for Damon, there was still this deep-rooted respect for him in their hearts.

This was the last and only chance to express it.

“We are leaving the rest to you then” Gin’s voice rang in Damon’s ears and only then did he stop ascending the stairs and turn.

He saw Gin, Cyrus, and Elsa fall to their knees with their fists cupped.

“Please, save our world!” The three said at once before giving a deep bow.

Buzz!

Damon felt an immense wave of faith power surge into him from the three and his face twisted. Just before he could show any emotion, he turned his back on the world and continued ascending in silence.

Only after reaching the final stair did he stop and throw out a thumbs up.

“I swear, I won’t fail!” Damon’s voice boomed and cheers boomed behind him.

..... Heavenly realm ...…

It was a floating city that was not inferior to Olympus in any way. Within a massive palace were five figures. If Damon was present he would recognize them in an instant.

Ducalian of the dragon race

Rose, Goddess of the spear

Belial, God of sword

Otis, God of Shield

Iris, Goddess of bow

All five of them stood around what seemed like a fountain and watched what was going on in the mortal realm with pale looks on their faces.

Bang!

Suddenly their world turned dark as a bolt of green lights descended from the heavens and struck the center of their great city!

“Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Damon has arrived!” Damon’s crazed laughter rang across the heavenly realm as a stench of death washed through the entire place killing all forms of vegetation almost instantly.

At this point, they realized Damon wasn’t coming to talk or even negotiate. He had no intention of hiding and gathering his strength before facing them. No, he planned to take them down on the spot here and now!

“Impudent!” Belial roared in fury.

By coming here he is only a demigod, does he think he will be able to struggle against true gods like them that have existed from the beginning?

“What are we afraid of? Let’s get rid of him now!” Ducalian growled in fury as another green thunder struck but it was not too far from their location.

A figure appeared with rainbow-colored hair and eyes. This man was dressed in a black robe which seemed familiar, that was the only way they could recognize him.

“Damon Ross!”
