Chapter 1272 Defeating the Two Ancient Demons

The two ancient demons continued pincering him from two directions.

The dog slapped him with the remaining paw, but Noel used his Divine Slash once more, trying to cut the remaining paw.

As if recalling the cut from earlier, the dog retracted his paw at the last moment.

On the other hand, the mouse was trying to dig the hole.

”What are you? A mole?” Noel gathered his fire in his fingertips before summoning the phoenix.

The phoenix flew into the hole and exploded, filling the entire hole with fire.

The ancient demon mouse immediately leaped out of the hole. It was trying to extinguish the flame on its body that quickly scorched its skin. The mouse even used a burst of spiritual energy to put the flame out. Unfortunately, it had a hard time doing so.

By the time the mouse managed to extinguish it, there were numerous scorched marks on its body.

It realized digging the hole might not be a good idea. It originally thought it could outspeed Noel and block the hole so that the fire couldnʼt reach him, but the rock simply melted upon contact.

Noelʼs flame was too strong.

The dog stomped the ground, turning it into a crater as if trying to seal the hole. This way, Noel couldnʼt take advantage of it anymore.

After that, the dog barked. Instead of releasing a powerful beam, it produced a massive gale that not only carried a huge amount of spiritual energy but also the rocks that started rolling within the crater. All of them moved toward the center of the crater, where Noel was.

Noel clicked his tongue and used his Divine Slash to split and disperse the energy. But this allowed the mouse to wave its hands toward Noel, trying to squeeze him.

Noel jumped into the air, but the dog had predicted this and hit him back to the ground.

Then, the mouseʼs claws swept in.

Noel activated one of his new powers, summoning a pair of huge black blades from the ground. They guarded his side, which prevented the claws from reaching him.

Still, the dog wouldnʼt mind more injuries after getting his paw cut. He simply smacked the blade and destroyed them.

Fortunately, the eight blades had been recharged. He immediately shot the blades into the sky. He split them into two groups. The first group hit the demons surrounding them. The other four actually went to the mouse.

”!!!” The mouse was startled and leaped away. He had no choice but to strike the blades one by one while avoiding the burn.

Little did the mouse know, this was just Noel trying to buy time.

Now that the mouse couldnʼt help the dog, the latter tried to attack Noel. Sadly for him, Noel had stood up.

The dog sent its paw, but Noel used his Divine Slash and combined it with the Three Purity Swords, cutting the last front paw.

The dog opened its mouth, but Noel was one step faster. He knew this was what the dog would do in case he had no more paws to use.

He sent the phoenix into the dogʼs mouth. As a result, the phoenix clashed with the dogʼs energy and caused a massive explosion.

Boom!

The explosion actually burned the mouth and deformed the dogʼs head.

It looked like the dog was about to lose its consciousness due to the damage to its body.

Before the dog could do anything or the mouse could help, he leaped to the dogʼs head and used the Divine Slash to sever his neck.

”!!!” The mouse looked shocked. He immediately headbutted Noel.

Because he had been too focused on the dog, Noel had to get hit and slam into the ground.

The mouse went into a frenzy, but now that the dog had been taken care of, it was easier for Noel to take down this mouse.

Blossoming Fire Roses.

Huge black roses emerged from the ground and circled around the mouse, from his arms to his body.

He had been so focused on the new abilities and his strongest abilities that he almost forgot he still had other abilities.

The mouse wanted to get away, but it was useless.

Ardagan had even a surprise for him.

All of a sudden, the thorns actually expanded like that of a blade. They melted the mouseʼs skin with its heat and destroyed the flesh with its sharpness.

Roar!

The mouse was wailing in pain.

Flame Devil.

A huge avatar emerged from Noelʼs back. Noel summoned a huge blade from the ground, which actually allowed his avatar to snap it and use it for himself.

But first, the avatar punched the mouseʼs head and knocked him to the ground. After that, he pinned the mouseʼs head down on the ground as his other hand wielded this massive sword.

The mouse struggled, trying to cut the avatar.

But that was when Noel summoned more blades and pierced the mouseʼs hands so that it couldnʼt leave the ground.

The mouse screamed, shaking its body violently. Unfortunately, there was simply nothing that the mouse could do.

Noel leaped into the air and used his Divine Slash while his avatar cut the mouseʼs neck.

With one last wail, the mouse finally died. With this, he fulfilled his promise.

”Huuu… Itʼs done.” Noel took a deep breath, feeling relieved. He glanced to the side and noticed Anna was done with her opponents. Then again, she only needed to fight one, so it was obvious she would be faster.

Instead of joining the battle and killing as many demons as possible, Noel actually shouted, ”Anna. Please take care of the rest of the demons with Rui.”

”Oh?!” Anna acknowledged his request but with a rather confused tone. She didnʼt expect Noel would be sitting out. ʼIt doesnʼt seem like the battle gives too much damage to his body, so whatʼs going on?ʼ

Noelʼs expression was solemn, as if he was seeing what would happen after this battle. It was as if he was conserving his stamina for something else.
