Chapter 21 - Havoc and Bloodbath begins.
Fyroki who flew through the air and crossed immense distances very quickly, stopped somewhere in the sky above a particular city and directed his shout of excitement below, "People of this world, prepare yourselves to lie in great wastes before me!"
The moment he said that, he plunged downwards to the earth below at a speed that made him seem like a lightning bolt.
BANG!!
As soon as Fyroki landed on the earth with unimaginably great force and momentum, a powerful rippling wave immediately surfaced and swept outwards with great destructive power in all directions, reducing virtually all the buildings in its path into nothing but piles of rubbles in seconds. Then the tens of thousands of humans caught up in this terrible devastating wave that shattered the earth for thousands of miles in a ripple-like fashion, were instantly reduced to countless pieces of flesh and bones that littered everywhere.
Hahahaha!
Fyroki laughed in a loud and rather carefree manner, as he felt tremendously powerful and unstoppable in this World of Mortals.
At the moment, with just that single stomp against the earth from that altitude in the sky, he had reaped away the lives of about three hundred thousand people. Also, he had turned a small city into nothing but a desolate land that had a huge and deep crater at it center.
Immediately after Fyroki uttered those words that he mentioned, he shot into the air again towards a random faraway city to reproduce the great degree of destruction that he brought down here.
So, in this manner, huge numbers of random cities were being leveled to the ground very quickly with the lives of millions of people being exterminated by the Immortals who had the intention of brewing up vast storms of destruction in their paths to draw out Ethena and kill her.
And their destructive activities were so high and intense that in just a few minutes of their arrival in this world, more than a hundred cities had been leveled to the ground, with the amounts of casualties summing up to a total of fifty million people and counting.
Twenty minutes later...
Aerracles who had laid himself in his bed after being passionately kissed by Ethena on a part of his left cheek, opened his eyes with a particular expression in it. He then furrowed his brows in shock the next moment and abruptly shot himself through the roof of his room towards the sky.
He didn't even leave through the door and only broke out through the roof of his room, since what he had suddenly perceived was drawing close to them at a very fast speed, was something that possessed the power to annihilate everyone in the village and scattered sparse settlements far beyond.
So, appearing high in the sky at a moment, countless streams of a majestic golden brilliance abruptly emanated from his whole body to rapidly form a vast curtain of golden light that encircled the entire village, then the forest and lake that surrounded it.
BANG!
A second later, a tremendously destructive wave that had surfaced as a result of the super-powered forceful stomp of a particular outlawed Immortal against the ground somewhere in the city that Aerracles and the others inhabited, struck with great destructive force into the protective large curtain of golden light that was produced from Aerracles's body. The wave was however abruptly stopped in its path of absolute devastation and so immediately dispersed after losing its entire potential energy to cause more destruction along its path of propagation.
The enveloping curtain of light that was produced from Aerracles's body, vanished with his eyes becoming filled with great and boundless anger, after seeing that the beautiful and prosperous city of before was now lying in nothing but ruins.
While Ethena who had arrived by his side, also developed the expression of intense wrath in her face after seeing what had happened to the city.
"Let me go get that bastard!" Aerracles said and immediately shut off at a great speed towards that Immortal who was now actually flying towards him as a result of the ravishing and eye-catching golden brilliance that he saw exude from Aerracles's body the moment he appeared in the sky and caused uncountable rays of a dazzling golden light to cascade forth from his whole body.
When the Immortal appeared before Aerracles who was brimming with excessive anger, he asked with an expression of understanding written on his face, "Imagine. So, an angel is actually in this world too."
BANG!
However, he got a thundering furious punch in the face as a response to his statement. While the punch which carried a certain amount of power that could actually reduce rows of entire tall mountains to tens of thousands of rubbles, basically hurled the Immortal really far away like he were a small rock fired off from a huge, powerful catapult.
Swoosh!
Aerracles appeared before him in an instant using his distance-crossing, likewise space-traversing power and simply grabbed the Immortal by the neck. Then with that particular hand beginning to emit a dazzling golden glow that carried with it a really hot temperature that could rapidly melt even the toughest or hardest objects in his Angel World, he effortlessly severed off the head of the Immortal from the neck.
Immediately after doing that, but was still raging as a result of the many lives and properties that had been lost because of their unbridled destructive actions, intense golden flame that burned excessively bright, making him seem like a small golden sun that was shaped in the form of a human, immediately erupted outwards from within his whole body in vast and seemingly boundless amounts. Then this brilliantly blazing golden flame that had gushed out from his whole body in terrifying amounts, completely engulfed the plummeting headless corpse of that Immortal and instantly burned it to nothing but golden ashes in a second.
Once he had done that with his anger a bit settled, he flew back to where Ethena was and said looking at her, "It's like more people from your world have arrived in this world. And instead of them to search for you, they chose to eliminate tens of thousands of these innocent and weak mortals. Just what's their gain in doing that? Why can't they just seek for you and bring the fight to you? Earnestly, they are nothing but cowards. Ugh!"
"Aerracles, I understand what they are trying to do. They are trying to draw me out by causing unrestrained havoc everywhere." Ethena said with her heart full of extreme emotions. Now, lots of people had died just because of her, making her white garment thickly soaked with the blood of lots of people that will greatly resent her because of it.
But as she spoke, there was something that she previously noticed about Aerracles that reminded her of a particular, golden-masked Warring Angel called Xerpheus, who she had come across in illegal Ancient Records about Angels that her race painstakingly and unsparingly obtained with the intention of learning about the sets of strongest, tactical, exceptional and most elite Angels that could cause them pounding headaches or serious unceasing worries if they were to ever engage one another again in an all-out full-blown war.
So, the few abilities that Aerracles just exhibited, were completely similar to that of Xerpheus who she read about when she was still in the Scarlet God Hall. And to mention, she was somewhat his fan as she admired him because of his brilliance in battle, as only he had once single-handedly slain a top-class army of elite Immortals that were about sixty thousand in number in the distant past, then his complete uniqueness and mysteriousness as he was the only angel that wore a masked helmet formed out of gold, and wielded massive golden swords and sabers which could actually rapidly melt and become spears, halberds and other sorts of deadly weapon that can be used in battle.
Furthermore, as a highly-talented and highborn Battle Angel, she had always wanted to fight him to see who was actually stronger and more skilled between them.
Being a warrior herself as she had fought in innumerable cold wars against the other God Halls that faced their Scarlet God Hall in the past, she was someone that will deeply love to engage in battles with fierce and fearsomely powerful challengers like Xerpheus who will cause her blood to both boil and churn in excitement.
'He can't be Xerpheus, right?' She asked within herself with a certain look in her face that wouldn't give her away that she was thinking about him or his abilities as Aerracles spoke to her with a melancholic, raging expression in his face.
