The Greatest Warlord

Blood Sky 5

The knights of the Kingdom of Valhalla fly all over the city, swiftly defeating the cursed dolls like hawks snatching their prey. Even with the blood sky enhancement, the cursed doll mobs are easily defeated by the knights. However, the problem isn't the strength of the cursed dolls, but their sheer numbers, which seem endless.

While small mobs like cursed dolls are easily defeated, higher-ranking enemies are becoming more difficult to overcome, as they possess tougher wool that mere steel cannot penetrate. Magic attacks must be unleashed to defeat them, along with a bit more effort. Their movements also pose a challenge, making them even harder to defeat.

However, despite the large number of enemies lurking in the capital, the casualties among the knights have not exceeded the twenty percent mark. With more victories than defeats against the cursed doll horde, even Veronica's fall is counted as a success, as she single-handedly defeated the giant cursed doll. It feels as though the knights had been waiting for this moment, finally proving their strength against the same calamity and horror that haunted them for two thousand years.

The spirits of the sky-resident knights are ablaze, and they vigorously defeat their enemies one by one. Even the giant cursed dolls become no match for them as their cooperation grows stronger. Light magic is unleashed in every corner of the city, creating a magnificent scene that marks their victory.

Hexelina stands on high ground, watching the army she summoned slowly crumble and turn to dust. There is nothing she can do except defend the throne room to sustain the blood sky phenomenon. Humming the melody of Moon Sonata No. 26, Hexelina falls to her knees, clutching her pink doll tightly.

One by one, the giant wicked dolls defending the high ground with Hexelina fall and disperse into dark smoke. Realizing they stand no chance against the elite knights, the remaining cursed dolls retreat and gather around Hexelina. They merge their bodies, becoming larger and stronger in order to protect their master.

An unsightly beast, formed from many giant cursed dolls and imbued with the power of the blood sky, crawls like a spider. Its mouth is filled with hundreds of sharp teeth, and its eerie eyes gaze into the souls of the elite knights. The creature's body mimics a spider, with each leg resembling a giant hand gripping the platform. The beast lets out a scream, disrupting the mana flow of the elite knights and instilling fear.

However, the elite knights quickly recover from the attack. They rise to their feet without hesitation and launch a fearless assault on the enhanced beast.

The Seven Pillars of Light soar higher, taking command of the skies as if it were their domain. Ascella, Alrescha, and Helios combine their magic to unleash a devastating magic attack against the enhanced wicked beast. Meanwhile, Sargas, Alastra, and their captain distract the creature, allowing them to cast the spell without interruption.

Lysander attacks the beast with his light magic-enhanced spear, striking it forcefully, but the spear only scratches its skin. However, Alastra's brute force causes the beast to flinch slightly and nearly destroys the bridge leading to the throne room. As the beast attacks Alastra while he is still recovering, it swings its tail at him. Sargas swiftly intervenes, saving Alastra from the devastating tail attack.

Seeing that Alastra is unharmed, Sargas smiles and swiftly throws him at the beast to launch a surprise attack. Alastra screams and curses Sargas for the underhanded tactic, as he was not informed beforehand. Despite this, Alastra manages to effectively punch and damage the beast with his bare hands.

The time they bought was enough for the three magicians of the elite knights to cast their spells. A brilliant giant halo appeared behind them, revealing hundreds of charged light beams, resembling four wings. Once their casting was complete, Helios aimed at the beast, and the charged light beams bombarded it, enveloping the creature in blinding light. After the initial bombardment, the lights converged into a single, massive beam. In no time, the beam was unleashed, striking the wicked beast with overwhelming force. The light was even brighter than the sun, causing a massive explosion upon the beast's body.
