Chapter 191 - Wretch

The waters were tinged with a hue of blood-red just a few minutes since attacks started to be thrown from both sides.

The battle looked to be in a stalemate as the fearsome Kraken had its aura and eyes focused on the body of Baal who continued to pulsate with maddening levels of power. The Dictatorial Kaiju-Hydra, had its heads focusing in the moving battles as it watched the figure of one particular Demon Empress closely.

A signal was sent.

A sigh was released from an Empress as there seemed to be some remaining feelings of fear and apprehension. But the face hardened even faster as all of these feelings were wiped away and a wrathful expression replaced them.

The Necromancer of Chaos released the slight apprehension in her heart as she moved. The instant her movements began, other beings that were watching closely also began moving.

OONG!

A dark light covered the body of the Kraken as it made a beeline towards the first ranked Ruler of the Demon World. Baal had a confident expression on his face as he prepared to receive the attacks of the Calamity when a drastic change occurred.

It was the sight of blooming suns as condensed balls of treacherous fire erupted very close to him from the hands of Barbatos. The balls of fire were further condensed to an extremely small size to cause even more damage as more than three were quickly cast and exploded on the left side of his chest where his heart lay.

BOOM!

What?!

"Emperor!"

A shocking explosion resounded throughout the dark waters. An unexpected sneak attack had been launched from the eighth-ranked ruler of the demon world to the first ranked one. It was an attack that nobody saw coming, an attack that would greatly change the tides of battle.

The blooming suns did not seem to stop as more and more condensed and continued to explode near Baal's body, creating gaping holes on his chest as spasmodic muscles and bones could be seen, the heart that usually powered the body being ruptured and disfigured.

The hole continued to get larger and larger as the suns continued to explode more and more. Barbatos had a crazed expression on her face as her energy continued to leak out at an intense rate to release even more destructive attacks.

Her breathing became hard as she felt the aura of the person she had attacked and heavily injured the origin of to be rising even higher, even though he was missing his heart.

"Emperor!"

The nearest Ruler that was close to Baal and Barbatos was the Seductress, Sitri. She had a maddening expression on her face as she stared at the crazed Barbatos and she screamed out while rushing towards her.

But it was not just Barbatos who knew and was prepared about this sneak attack. There were two PHANTASMAL figures of great power that knew beforehand as the Kraken that had been moving forward finally reached the extremely injured Baal. It's two extremely large tentacles formed into dark javelins as they rushed down towards his pulsating body.

BOOM!

As for the Seductress Sitri who was aiming for Barbatos, yet another figure had suddenly appeared in front of her as the Three-headed Hydra surrounded her entire body with the dangerously glowing heads.

The humongous figure of the Dictatorial Kaiju- Hydra, was moving so fast that the three heads surrounded the body of Sitri in an instant. A deadly green light was coming out of one head as thunderous purple light was coming out of the other. A cold blue light that controlled the water around them also exploded with power as the energies that Noah had been building up for the past minutes in each of the three heads were released as terrifying attacks that rained on the body of the 12th ranked Ruler.

At the moment of a surprise attack that nobody expected Noah aimed for a Phantasmal ranked Ruler who could be considered the weakest and one that would be the easiest to kill in a short period of time.

Her strength was ranked 12th and could be considered average in the Phantasmal rank while Noah had the powerful combined skill of the Dictatorial Kaiju-Hydra, along with many other skills and even a percentage in the Law of Water boosting him. This wasn't even to mention the supreme treasure he hadn't yet shown that quintupled his strength.

BOOM!

Innate elemental abilities of the three heads of the Hydra were unleashed on the defenseless body of the shocked Sitri as parts of her body were destroyed from arcs of purple lightning, another part was melted by poisonous liquids, and the third part was in a constant cycle of being frozen and shattering.

Noah didn't stop here as the three heads exhibited their sharp teeth and took powerful bites onto the ravaged body of the 12th ranked Ruler, tearing apart whatever remained and causing the true death of yet another ruler of the demon world as a red light exploded out. This time though, it was a Phantasmal ranked Ruler that fell in such a quick manner.

The shock factor only increased with these actions as the other rulers that were fighting their own battles with the Calamities looked at the scene of carnage near Baal as everyone had happened in just a few seconds. Their eyes only found him heavily injured and fighting back against the power of the fearsome Kraken as yet another change was occurring. What made it even worse was the fact that they felt the True Death of Sitri who was just in front of them!

OONG

"Emperor!"

They screamed out as they tried to reach Baal's position, but the calamities would not give them such a chance as their attacks rained down harder.

Confusion and chaos was present among the force of the cultivators as they fended off the heavy fire coming from the Warsh.i.p.s and Submarines that the Atlanteans and Merfolk were riding on. The hydro cannons continued to shoot out dangerous blue plasma beams that struck into the ranks of Cultivators and Demon Legions as the dark sees continued to be stained red.

"ARGH!"

A resounding howl came from the injured Bal as a red beam of light shot out from him and soared into the skies. The beam of red light pushed out the hardened javelin looking tentacles that the Kraken had sunk into his body as his wrathful voice came from within.

"You ungrateful wretch!"

His voice thundered out angrily as his aura that should have been weakened and injured continued to climb even higher as his form started changing. The Ultimate Skill, {Gluttony} was cast as the tremendous essence of the PHANTASMAL beast he had swallowed some time back was used to restore some of his injured origin.

It looked like something was erupting out of his body as gloriously red wings erupted from his back and horns that pointed to the skies erupted from his head. The shape of his body was changing and expanding as the true form of the Demon Emperor, the one that was ranked number one in a Large World had appeared.

Not too much time had passed since Barbatos acted and the Kraken rained down relentless attacks. Using the shock of these sequence of events, Noah had targeted and took down a PHANTASMAL ranked being within seconds.
