Bro, I'm not an Undead!

Chapter 1118: Against One Giant

Hundreds of what looked like black, flying locusts the size of fists spawned around the Null Devil King and devoured the hand-shaped Nitros Sause had sent as an attack to the Null Living foe!

The Giant's attack was fast, so fast that Aurolio had missed it, but it was erased with just as much alacrity, much to Sause's surprise.

The uncomfortable noise the wings of the hundreds of creatures made, made him uneasy, as did the view of the locusts gathering together like some of kind of cloud of soot.

Sause didn't quite understand what these creatures were or how they had fended off his last attack, but he didn't stop to gawk.

Ten more large hands of Nitros whipped out from him at once, all shooting at breakneck speed towards his enemies. An additional one he conjured shot towards Aurolio, and the Deathform found himself firmly restrained in its grip, flying off the mountain top and into the clumps of clouds around it!

This only lasted for a few moments, however.

Aurolio was one acknowledged by the Voice of Worlds, and he had a guidance field. Because his Patronage Rank with the unusual, universal system was high, he had earned a benefit to using the guidance field called <Quick Spawn>, which allowed him to teleport wherever he had placed a <Marked Spot>, a marker that noted a position where he wanted to remember the coordinates of.

Luckily for him, he had marked the mountain the instant he set foot on it.

As soon as he thought to teleport, Aurolio was back on the mountain top and he instantly bolted towards Sause again.

The Giant, on the other hand, had just frowned at seeing the swarm of locusts devour his ten Nitros manifestations just as easily and swiftly as they had done his last one, when he noticed Aurolio's return.

He cursed inwardly.

Aurolio cocked back his arm and sent a terrifying punch livid with Voided Death Essence into where he predicted the invisible barrier Sause had created to be.

There was a crackle and a boom.

The barrier had received this exact attack from Aurolio before, and was unable to stop it a second time. It shattered, and Aurolio whooshed towards the Giant, his body getting encased in more vibrant, purple Voided Death Essence.

The energy ran deep within him as well, fuelling his technique, Unbeatable Trigger!

Aurolio pointed his hand forward and a stream of condensed Voided Death Essence shot towards Sause's face.

The Giant wasn't foolish enough to attempt to block this, though. Thus, he ducked.

In the time he did, Aurolio bulleted past him, intent on reaching the shrine, but to his surprise, Sause flashed to his side, grabbed him by the torso and flung him towards the stagnant swarm of black locusts!

Aurolio clicked his tongue and used <Quick Spawn> to warp to safety - where he had been standing before this all began.

Sause's eyes returned to the swarm of black. He considered the Null Devil King to be the greatest adversary here. The fact that he was hidden by the army of conjured creatures unsettled him greatly.

...!

Right then, a figure shot out of the swarm of locusts.

It was a certain redhead with vibrant wings, a cold visage visible on her.

She shuttled quickly towards Sause and unleashed her own Nitros which flared and exploded

to cover the entire mountain top in a gush, not dissimilar to a flood!

For an instant, Sause was blinded and overwhelmed.

That instant worked against him.

Stylla had been taken advantage of by the Null Devil King or rather, the BoneTender, in Genhuis City. She had been lured into having a wish of hers granted - having the power to cure her father - but in exchange, she became the BoneTender's slave.

The power she attained rivalled that of an Incandescent Stager, and with it, she had extracted the curse that kept her father comatose.

The curse remained in her possession. As messed up as it was, she stored it in the deformed vessel of the one who cast it on her father: her brother, Setkh.

(A/N: Refer to Ch.676&677).

In the instant when Sause made an attempt to ward off the raging Nitros from Stylla, he found that she was above her, a great, odd, dark brown jar that seemed to murmur in great pain in her hands. She tilted it, and from its open mouth, a dark misty substance poured onto Sause's head!

It was the curse!

Sause immediately flung what looked like a ring towards it, and much of the curse that had left the jar was sucked into the ring. Stylla saw this and retrieved the jar into whatever storage she had immediately, then she dove down to hurl a fist into Sause's head.

Sause was quick enough to block the attack.

The raw might of an Incandescent Stager was nothing to him. After all, he himself was a Transcendent Stager!

Aurolio joined the fray.

He would have rushed past the duo if he didn't know how quick Sause was. He needed to disable the Giant if he was to safely reach the shrine. Thus, he burst forth, his Voided Death Essence coagulating in his hand to form a Warhammer that he used to strike at Sause's knee!

BOOOM!

Aurolio frowned. The Giant's leg didn't so much as budge!

It was suddenly encased in a stellar light that seemed to depict an unusual environment, as though a world was forged in Sause's leg.

Aurolio couldn't have known, but Transcendent Stagers were capable of boosting their physical prowess with the effect of their Majestic Territories, even if they weren't actively using them!

While Stylla sent a series of punches streaming towards Sause's face, the Giant blocked each with one hand, and with the other, he scooped up Aurolio who attempted to fire off another streaming jet of Voided Death Essence to his face and flung him away.

Of course, Aurolio returned just an instant later and stubbornly bolted forth.

Sause grew annoyed.

While fending off the two enemies, he didn't forget that he still had the false Null Devil King to deal with. He kept his senses keen in case the bastard was using Stylla to divert his

attention.

'Might as well...' Sause thought, and in the next second, he made the decision to detain his enemies in a world where everything followed his whims.

"Majestic Territory Expulsion..." Sause began.

...!!!

Stylla and Aurolio were shaken.

The former couldn't hope to clash Territories with Sause even if she could cast her own Territory, while the latter had exhausted the usage of his trump card, the Mastered Void Gate

in the previous battle.

Thankfully for him, though...

The hundreds of locusts suddenly became hyperactive and soared as a vicious force towards Sause and his bulging blob of Nitros which was intent on trapping everyone!

Shockingly, the dark creatures were lit up in a pinkish flame that zipped from one locust to the other, seemingly burning them all alive!

Sause's eyes bulged.

A moment later, he found all the Nitros he conjured to expel his Territory gone.

It was devoured by the ravenous creatures which radiated a terrifying heat that he couldn't defend against with just his body!

'What kind of power is this...?' Sause began to wonder when a hand only as big as his Adam's apple planted itself on his chest.

"Get out of my way," the Null Devil King's chilling voice came and Sause felt something in him obey whatever command came from the Null Lifeform's gesture!

His knees plummeted to the ground.

He felt heavy, but he could have sworn it was neither his body or soul that was causing this.

This was something else.

Before the Giant knew it, hundreds of burning locusts swarmed him and rapidly began eating

away at his flesh!
