Chapter 20 - CHAPTER - 20 - THE LAST RESORT

Razel reached him, backed his hands to increase the force of the attack which he was about to land on Lei with his dark and demonic sword.

Suddenly, Lei had a flashback. He remembered the day when he arrived at the holy land of Milo Azaloth with his friends, he remembered their words, he remembered their love and he also remembered them dying. In the current moment of time, he got filled up with passion, sadness, regret, anger, power and most importantly, curiosity. He was curious to know his destiny. He wanted to live his life to know his upcoming fate. As Razel reached him and tried to slay him with his dark sword, his body got filled with intense power and his Azure aura was leaking out of his body and his hear was beating crazily. Instead of defending or dodging, Lei attacked Razel's dark sword. His power was strong enough to shatter a Megalithium armour in pieces. Razel's dark sword disappeared as if it melted in the air and he got thrown off far away due to the force of Lei's powerful punch. He said,

"I knew that dodging or defending would have been useless. If I would have defended against your attack then my arm might have shattered. If I would have tried to dodged your attack I wouldn't have made it in time. This only left me with one option, to attack you with double the force!"

Razel sweated a little bit and started flying in the air. While he was in the sky, he said,

"Hoh! Looks like you doubled your Azure prowess. But... Do you really think... That this is the extent of my true power! Khwaaaaahahahaha!!! Khwaaaaahahahaha!!!"

After shouting loudly, he started laughing maniacally as he manifested his demonic energy outside his body and used all the forms of dark arts at once. He created spears with his demonic energy and dark arts and threw at Lei. Once again, instead of dodging or defending himself, Lei slashed open the spear using the dagger he created with his Azure emperor prowess. As the sight of spreading spear vanished from Lei's eyes, he saw Razel approaching towards him at an unimaginable speed. Razel started landing his strong blows on Lei using his dark arts. Lei striked his punches with the same level of force as him. Every time Razel tried to punch him, he deflected Razel's punch with his Azure energy. They didn't stopped even for a second because they knew, whoever would stop first, will be the one to die first. They continued the attack and defend pattern for a minute. Since their attacks were so fast that they exceeded the limit of a rank S slayer, it looked like a lot of time had passed.

MEANWHILE...

Milo and Jonas were fighting to death in a battle which may decide the fate of the humanity and divinity.

Milo looked pitifully at Jonas and said,

"Even if you regret fighting me now, your crimes won't be forgotten. You need to die in order to reestablish peace. There is no escape or retreat for you."

Jonas said while clinching his fists hardly,

"Do... You... Really think... That... I... I! Will escape?!!!"

After shouting this, he landed a strong blow on the ground and castle's floor on which they were fighting got destroyed. His hands were burning with fire. The floor melted like ice. Milo and Jonas landed on the floor below it.

Jonas tried to destroy the second floor also but he was disrupted by Milo. They had epic showdown of their respective sword arts. Since Jonas started loosing his patience, he used his air elemental magic to distort Milo's vision but Milo overcame it in a couple of seconds. While he was having difficulty with his vision, Jonas destroyed his whole castle using his Earth and Fire elemental magic. He even destroyed the ground of the holy land of Milo Azaloth. He blowed away the walls which were the boundary of the castle using his air elemental magic. After that, they continued fighting eac other with their swords.

Since Lei and Razel were fighting just outside the castle boundary, the gate which was blown away by the strong gust of wind created by Jonas came flying at a high speed towards Lei. Lei kicked the gate towards Razel's direction. Razel smashed the gate in pieces. Since the gate was covering Razel's vision, Lei found it a great chance to help his father-in-law who was facing an unknown enemy.

MEANWHILE...

Since the castle blew up, every soul living on the holy land of Milo Azaloth, detected the danger and left Milo's land and descended towards other holy lands. Since the population of souls inhabiting the holy land of Milo Azaloth reduced, Sylvia's powers increased drastically. Wang Jun and Sylvia were afraid due to the castle's destruction. They held their hands together to make each other feel less nervous and scared. However, Sylvia's powers were on the peak of leaking out. While Lei tried to reach out to his father-in -law who was fighting a fierce battle against Jonas, Razel grabbed Lei's leg and tossed him away like a stone.

Suddenly, everybody's mind got blank. Sylvia's power was activated automatically and it didn't gave hard time to people with high divine energy. Everyone's memories were exchanged with each other.

Razel saw the visions of 5 years old Lei. How his family was destroyed and how he suffered his entire life in an orphan, but, he had friends on which he could rely.

Jonas saw Razel's visions. How he was living a life filled with hardships. How he was filled with hatred when he was just a 5 year old. And most importantly, he lead his life lonely into the darkness.

Jonas saw the visions of Milo. How his wife died in his conquest of killing the demon lord Afrozwein. How he was traumatized by the horrors of battlefield. He came to realize how similar they were.

Milo saw the visions of his current opponent who was overwhelming him in the battle. He saw the destruction of his peaceful land. He came to realize that it was his fault that he is facing him right now. Since Milo's divine energy was the highest, he succeeded in ending the effects of Sylvia's power on himself.

Since he was freed from her powers, he decided to kill his enemy on the spot because if he didn't killed him using underhanded methods, then great calamity may fall on the divinity. He backstabbed Jonas with his sword. He threw away his pride as a heavenly swordsman to protect the divinity from destruction. Meanwhile, others were coming out of Sylvia's affects slowly and Jonas shared his thoughts with Razel, but, these were also heard by Lei's ears. He said,

"Son, do you know that whenever the lord of a holy land dies, his holy land also perishes along with him. This is my end. I didn't expected that Milo would throw away his pride just to kill me. But, remember, my death won't be meaningless. I will destroy the entire holy land of Milo Azaloth along with me. You will cherish my sacrifice and advance onto the path of attaining eternity."

Everybody came out of the effect of Sylvia's powers. Razel saw Milo killing his father but he didn't put any grudge in his heart. He opened the sudden portal to his current homeland, the multi dimensional land. He didn't took any action and left.

"FATHER! He still has something up his sleeves! You should be pre-"

Lei rushed towards Milo and shouted, but was interrupted by Milo. Milo said,

"I already know it, my son."

Lei had a shocked expression on his face while Jonas teared away his waist as he slid off the sword which was pierced in him. Jonas turned back and used his full power fire elemental magic to burn him. While Milo was burning painfully, he said to Lei,

" Lei! Don't try to save me or fight Jonas! It is already the end for us! Instead of trying to save me, take my family and use the last resort! Use the Earth dimensional portal and leave this land! This is my last order! I won't consider you as my son if you refuse me!"

Lei tried to argue with him, but his tongue had no power to utter a single word. He bit his lip and turned his back towards Milo. He left the holy land of Milo Azaloth with his teary eye. Since Sylvia thought that her father's death was not meaningless, she headed towards Earth with her family.

MEANWHILE...

"Jonas... Zel... Sc-Schneider... Remember my last... Words... You can never escape... Your fate."

These were the last words of the low level god and the heavenly swordsman, who was once a guard of the king of heaven, MILO AZALOTH. As the land started to break away, the person who's limbs were almost torn away in half, uttered his last words,

" Milo... Aza-loth... You were... Really a... Nice guy... Right?"

Jonas Zel Schneider uttered his last words as a respect for Milo Azaloth before passing away.

The story of generation 1 or G1 came to an end, however, even though the story is finished, future generations of the Azaloth (godly surname) Wang family and the Zel (demonic surname) Schneider family will never banish.
