"Huh? Why are you suddenly cursing me?" Leon tilted his head in bewilderment, wondering why this woman had suddenly unleashed a curse upon him for no apparent reason.
Certainly, he was handsome, and the two of them were enemies, but he, too, had a heart, you know?
Anyone would be upset to be cursed for no reason, even in a hostile position!
After all, this marked the first instance someone had unexpectedly cursed him upon glimpsing his handsome face, whereas usually any woman who saw him would be captivated!
"Has the current aesthetic standard of the Demon race gone down?" Leon pondered, deeming it the only plausible explanation, and sighed in pity for them.
However, before he could dwell on this thought for long, he suddenly sensed an overwhelmingly powerful aura erupting from Liliana's body.
"Boom!"
A thick red aura erupted from her body, piercing the night sky and instantly infusing the surrounding atmosphere with an eerie and chilling feeling
Her aura emanated a devastatingly potent power, and Leon felt a deadly crisis that he hadn't experienced in a long time.
Furthermore, her typically beautiful and cold countenance now bore a slight tinge of red, appearing exceptionally angered, with hatred emanating from her blood-red eyes directed at him.
Leon, taken aback and bewildered by this sudden transformation, found himself in a state of astonishment and confusion!
"Damn it! What's wrong with this woman? Why did she suddenly become so terrifying upon seeing my face? As expected! The ancient people were never wrong; women are truly strange creatures!" Leon couldn't fathom it, and there was no time to understand the reason because, at that very moment, thousands of sharp red crystals were already hanging in the air, ready to crush him!
"Whoosh!"
Thousands of sharp crystals swooped towards him, and their sole target was Leon!
"Divine Protection!" Leon swiftly thrust the tip of the Zenith Holy Sword into the sand, and a white barrier materialized around his body, extending five meters in all directions.
"Boom!"
This divine white barrier was evidently more robust than the previous invisible one, instantly obliterating the sharp red crystals that lunged toward him.
The explosive sound of the red crystals rang out every second, creating a scene more lively than ever.
"If you believe that attacking me with all this can ensure your victory, Demon Emperor, you're underestimating me," Leon said with a faint smile and a playful tone in his voice.
He remained puzzled about why this woman turned fierce instantly upon seeing his face.
Moreover, a clear expression of anger and hatred adorned her face, as if he had been responsible for killing both her parents.
In reality, he had never even met her, so isn't it strange for her to harbor such unreasonably exaggerated animosity towards him?
If this anger stemmed from him defeating the Demon Generals and the Demon Armies during the previous war, Auntie, it was a war, and wouldn't it make sense for each side to try and defeat the other?
Hence, he was certain that her anger was definitely not because of the defeat of the Demon army earlier, but because of something else!
What that reason was, how could he know?
He couldn't help but glance at Liliana, and her expression remained the same—full of hatred and anger.
"Hm?" Leon immediately sensed something was amiss as he observed her hand raised up, accompanied by a lopsided smile on her lips.
Immediately, Leon lifted his head, and his face turned as pale as a butthole.
"F***!" Leon exclaimed inwardly in fear as he observed, above the sky, a hundred-meter-long, sharp red crystal with its pointed tip already aimed at him!
"Whoosh!"
The hundred-meter red crystal descended swiftly towards him, and if struck by this attack, he was certain to be reduced to powder in an instant!
It was evident that this woman truly intended to end him with a single strike!
"Boom!"
An explosive sound echoed as the hundred-meter-sized red crystal collided with his divine barrier.
Unfortunately, the protective barrier couldn't withstand the impact for long, as cracks immediately formed around it.
"Teleport!" Leon swiftly cast teleportation magic, and his figure vanished from the spot just before the entire divine barrier finally shattered into pieces, crashing down to where Leon had been standing moments earlier.
"Boom!"
The explosion resounded with an ear-splitting roar, hurling all the sand fifty meters away and creating a small sandstorm around him.
Leon reappeared a hundred meters away, observing the aftermath with goosebumps.
He hadn't anticipated that this woman would be so fierce!
"Even Divine Protection succumbed to her attack. It seems I can't afford to play around any longer this time. If I do, I'll surely meet my demise," Leon muttered to himself and took a deep breath.
He had to acknowledge that this Demon Emperor was exceptionally formidable, surpassing the level of the Demon Generals he had encountered before.
Her strength was undeniably terrifying!
Gradually, the sandstorm from the attack subsided, and Liliana's indifferent figure remained standing as if untouched by the minor disturbance.
Leon gazed at her with a composed expression and remarked, "I may not understand why you become aggressive upon seeing my face, and it feels like we have never met before, making your sudden hatred for me unfounded. However, it doesn't matter anymore because now I'm going to get serious!"
After uttering those words, the entire aura around him changed instantly, undergoing a drastic transformation as white light radiated out of his body.
The Zenith Holy Sword in his hand also gleamed brightly as he raised the sword upwards.
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, behind him, a colossal golden-white clock materialized, stretching hundreds of meters.
Its size was so immense that it captured the attention of the entire human army engaged in battle with the demon race, and they stared at it in horror.
"This... This is a sword hero's attack!"
"That's right! This is one of the sword hero's most terrifying ultimate techniques!"
"Which Demon General could compel the sword hero Leon to use his ultimate move?"
"I don't know, but one thing's for sure: it seems we're going to win this war, hahaha!"
"We've won! We've won!"
"Long live humanity!"
"Attack those demons and annihilate them!"
The cheers resonated through the ranks of humanity's troops, and their assaults on the demon race intensified, gradually decimating the front row of the demon race forces.
"Dong!"
The long hand of the giant clock slowly shifted to the right, emitting a sound so resonant it would send shivers down anyone's spine.
Liliana's expression turned serious, sensing a palpable air of death emanating from the giant clock.
She understood that if she were to be struck by this attack, even if it didn't result in her death, it would leave her severely injured.
Furthermore, she felt immobilized, unable to move her body to evade the impending attack.
She couldn't help but gaze at Leon, who was smiling down at her.
"Smelly bastard!" Liliana cursed Leon in her heart, her anger intensifying towards him.
"Hehehe! Are you scared now? Where is your arrogance?" Leon smiled faintly, mocking her as he observed Liliana's wary expression.
"Dong!"
The long hands of the clock were once again buzzing and moving, signaling the onset of an attack!
"Even though we are enemies and this is our first encounter, I must acknowledge that you are the strongest and most beautiful woman I've ever seen. Unfortunately, fate has decreed that we are destined to face each other in battle, and this marks your defeat, Demon Emperor!" Leon shouted loudly, making a slashing motion towards Liliana with the Zenith Holy Sword.
"Ultimate Technique: Clock of Destiny... Strike!"
