[Border Town]
The town itself was in a complete mess, it was purely destroyed that only few houses can be seen standing
The roads were cracked, the buildings were destroyed, the square was cratered, and across the main Street explosions were reverbrated
Due to sense of survivability the citizens of this town rapidly escaped outside the town's wall and only stopped at a certain hill near it while witnessing the fierce battle
For some unfortunate people that didn't managed to escape in time, they were instantly killed when they were dragged along with the ongoing battle
Seeing the town getting destroyed, few of the citizens were shedding tears as they witness the town that they have grown attach to get destroyed, while as for some they were rejoicing they're successful escape from the Archdemon, and for many they were quite worried for the people who directly assaulted the Archdemon... . . Gaining time for the citizens to evacuate
********************************
In an instant Alda raises his Mana surged to a certain overwhelming degree that is surely passed a certain human could possibly contain
His whole body was really covered by a holy light aura accompanied by the gathering of knowledge from passed sword saints into his mind due to the skill [Sword Saint Manifestation]
With this skill he can borrow the knowledge and strength of the past sword saints in order to deal with the Archdemon Belial
Slowly but surely Alda observed Belial and is on guard to a high degree as he took a step one at a time and the same goes for the latter
Without a moment's doubt Alda ran up to Belial in an incredible speed that even the naked eye couldn't catch up to
In response to this Belial swipes the space in front of him with his sharp claws, but unfortunately Alda saw through this and quickly did a summersault landing behind him and delivering a backslash with his two sword that is enhanced by the strength of a real sword saint
As expected Belial high defense was no joke and only twitched from that attack, immediately he turned around and thrusted his left arm behind him and only to hit an empty air
"?"
In confusion the person himself was already behind Belial again as it sent a devastating blow to the Archdemon causing the latter to be sent flying crashing to the pile of destroyed houses
"Cross slash!!!"
"What? How did..."
After being blown away Belial was shocked by the sudden rise in power of the opponent and immediately adjusted it's strategy and aimed to become more serious in battle
But the moment he thought of that Alda has already appeared in front of him bringing with it his intense killing intent as he did numerous sword attacks combined with his dual wielding swordplay
In no time Belial received all the attacks unhindered causing wounds to appear all over his body
"Kuh!"
Maybe because of irritation Belial sent its left wing to intercept Alda's attack giving him enough leeway to adjust his attack pattern and dealing a counter-attack
After being intercepted by a wing Alda was assualted by a thrust from a it's claws, seeing this Alda moved his left sword vertically to protect his abdomen
Because of this followed by the recoil from both attacks combined Alda was sent flying backwards crashing to a tower and completely making it crumble on top of him
As the debris settle, a light suddenly shot up as Alda jumped up from the rubble
"You almost got me there" said Alda
"An interesting insect! Truly you have exceed my expectations" replied Belial
"Hahaha! thanks for the compliment but that won't be enough to save your sorry ass" taunted Alda
"A mere taunt? How underhanded... . . And here I thought humans were different" complained Belial
"I don't want to hear that from you... . . You cheat bastard" complained back Alda
After exchanging words for a little bit, both of them resumed their battle as the two of them engaged in a high speed battle across the town
Unable to follow their movements at all Lily quickly drew a certain formation unto the ground in order to contribute at least a little from this battle
"Just you wait! I'll give it my all and turn the tables around" she said to herself inorder to motivate herself
As Lily was doing this, the Archdemon and the sword saint were having an intense battle that one could see that this wasn't your everyday battle at all
Because of Kaido restricting his movement on the mocked battle, he hasn't a chance to show this power but since the enemy was so strong Alda threw away his worry and immediately activated his Trump card
Sending a thrust with a sword Alda followed it up by turning continuously and sending waves after waves of attacks to Belial
After dodging that attack Belial flapped it's wings arriving immediately behind Alda and delivering an attack by smacking Alda with it's right wing
As Alda crashed down he immediately dashed forward to dodge Belial's killer drive
"Kuh! You reacted even to that?" Complained Belial
After sliding across the floor Alda quickly jumped in and continued his attack as he slashed down his right sword complete pinning down Belial
"Just die already" shouted Alda
"No can do... . . This is war you know! It only reasonable that some people will die for sure" stated Belial
"But I don't intend to die here so let me try to defend myself"
As she said that Belial pulled Alda's collar and slammed him to the ground
Not minding the pain Alda immediately stabbed Belial's arm completely tearing it off from it's body
When that happened Belial immediately backed away and flew upwards
"I won't let you escape!"
Forming multiple sword of light, he directed the swords of light to assault Belial and pinpoint him like a guided missile
"Go!"
With that signal the multiple sword of light immediately dashed upwards following Belial who flew upwards
Die to this the battle this time turned to aerial battle as Belial maneuvered his wings to fly faster while he defends himself from the attacks
In response to this the Archdemon himself sent out multiple small scale magic shot to intercept the attack
This scene completely changed the surroundings as the vicinity itself was being bombarded by the Archdemon's stray magic attack
After deflecting one sword of light attack, another one completely swoop in and stabbed Belial right Through his left chest
"Guhah!" Reacted Belial as he spat out black blood
Seeing the sword of light Belial immediately tried to pull it out only to receive a burning sensation whenever he tried to pull it out
Afterwards multiple swords came in and stabbed Belial simultaneously that he almost look like a doll that was played and pierced through by swords as if he was a toy
"Ack!"
"Guh!"
"Ah!"
From below Alda saw Belial's figure as he smiled for his wonderful display of perfect control
"Swords judgement"
As he said that and clasped his hand, all the sword that was stabbing Belial shined brightly as if indicating something
While being surprised by the sudden illumination a huge explosion vibrated the air as it completely engulfed the Archdemon
As this happened shockwaves were sent throughout the vicinity which also greatly surprised the citizens of that particular town
"They did it! They truly did it"
"Did they kill that demon already?"
"That demon is dangerous... . . It actually fought against multiple adventurers at the same time and leaving them in a critical state"
"So this is war"
"No if this battle was only a skirmish and it's already to this extent then just imagine a war with multiple talented individuals fighting in it"
"Complete chaos"
As the citizen were causing some talks, a silhouette could be seen falling from the sky and crashing to the ground causing another explosion to occur leaving a deep crater in it's crash
That particular silhouette was none other than Belial who was completely charred by the attack
"This fight... . . It's truly a life critical battle" said Alda as he pants heavily
After that Alda turned around only to stop a moments later and looking at the Archdemon with a wide eyes and a shocked expression
"No way! He's not dead yet? What is he? A zombie? This can't go on! I'm completely exhausted"
As Alda thought this he witnessed that the charred body was actually moving and slowly rising up which greatly troubled him
