Dragon Maken War Chapter 109 - The One that Chose the Name Soaked in Sin (5)

Reygus hadn't come here by himself. In the first place, the Guardian Shadows had come here, because there was a large group of Dragon Demon king wors.h.i.+ppers gathered here. It seemed they purposefully revealed their location to lure in the Guardian Shadows here.

Reygus spoke.

“Reygus-nim. We can't…….”

Dragon Demons and Dragon Majins appeared from within the dust cloud. Each of them were officers within the Plain of Darkness. They all possessed great power.

If this was a normal circ.u.mstance, they would take orders from no one. However, even if he was an Undead, Reygus was basically n.o.bility to them.

“Understood. Well, then…….”

The Dragon Demons and Dragon Majins followed Reygus' will. They left.

Theta and Zeta tried to stop them, but in a flash, a terrifying energy surrounded their bodies.

“Koohk……!”

It was the power of a black curse, and it felt as if an invisible hand was pressing down on them. In fact, the black curse became densers as time pa.s.sed, and it started to exhibit physical effects.

Pah-jeek! Pah-jee-jee-jeeeek!

The Black Magic, which maintained the Undeads, started to clash with the new magic as black sparks erupted.

Theta and Zeta was slowly being pushed back. Normally, they possessed powers much greater than an Undead, yet their combined power was being pushed back by Reygus.

Zeta stepped forward to swing his sword. When he swung his sword, a black wave erupted to cut the power that was pus.h.i.+ng them backwards.

When the gridlock was broken, Zeta quickly sent 30 Guardian Shadows after their enemies. Then he asked Reygus a question.

This was a trap from the start. Reygus and the officers from the Plains of Darkness had been waiting for them. The appearance of the officers were considered to be a possibility, but the existence of Reygus had transcended expectation even for the Guardian Shadows.

‘I never expected the four great Dragon Demon Generals to be this strong. Was he stronger when he was alive? Or did he get stronger after death like us?’

The Guardian Shadows were strong. Each Guardian Shadows possessed a very threatening amount of power, but their powers increased rapidly as more gathered in a single location.

Then there were the beings that existed to command the Guardian Shadows. Basically, the existence of Theta and Zeta, who were the 'Sleepless Guardians', had a big synergistic effect on the Guardian Shadows. This was why they hadn't been afraid of the officers from the Plain of Darkness.

If Reygus wasn't here, the Guardian Shadows would have won. However, Reygus' power was beyond imagination. When Reygus swung his Seal of the Broken Soul,the mountaintop was blown away, and the several hundred meter stretch of trees were uprooted. In terms of destructive power, it was akin to fighting a Dragon.

‘Still, he isn't at a level where we can do nothing to him. Still, it is unfortunate that we'll cease to exist after this.’

There were a total of eight Keepers of the Prophecy. Aside from their newest member Zares, every one of them possessed 'Sleepless Guardians'. If two Keepers of the Prophecy and their Sleepless Guardians were gathered in the same location, it would be possible to stand up against Reygus.

At that point in his thought process, Zeta became suspicious. No matter how he thought about it, this was too weird. Reygus was an ace card that had been hidden up until now by the Plain of Darkness. The fact that he had shown up in front of the Guardian Shadows meant that there was something here that was worth revealing the secret.

The Plain of Darkness didn't really know about how the Guardian Shadows were structured, but they knew that the Keepers of Prophecy were special. If they could lure and kill all the Keepers of the Prophecy, maybe they might have thought it was worth the risk.

Still, how did they track the Keepers of Prophecy? They would have needed their precise location to set up this trap. When he asked this question, Reygus didn't even bother hiding the information.

<…so all the men we killed arriving at this location were intentional sacrifices?>

Dragon Demon king wors.h.i.+ppers were scattered all over the world. However, the information gathered in their deaths were gathered, and sent to the Plain of Darkness. Aincera was encased within the Great Darkness, and it was possible for her to connect to others linked to the Great Darkness. They could be anywhere on the continent, and Aincera would be able to contact them instantaneously. This network allowed her to gather and a.n.a.lyze information. She was able to respond to any situation in an abnormally fast manner.

The Keepers of Prophecy had appeared when the Plain of Darkness tried to kidnap the Dragon Demon Prince Seigar. Afterwards, a great amount of effort was put in to keep track of the Keepers of the Prophecy. The result of this effort allowed Reygus to ambush the Guardian Shadows.

Reygus placed the head of the Seal of Broken Soul on his palm as he spoke.
