Armipotent

Chapter 625 - Tang - Part 1

Alton looked at the young man who laid down unconscious. The transformation was going off, and the old knight observed the young manʼs face. Alton was sure that the one in front of him was not a demon but a human. He never heard about the demon with the human-like appearance.

”It does not matter if he is a human or a demon, and this is a war…” Alton looked at the surroundings, or to be more exact, he was checking on the Beast Covenʼs force. He found out that The Tyrant was cornering his force.

There was only one thought in his mind, and he immediately executed the plan in his mind. However, before he could grab Tang Shaoyang, there was a big shadow hovering above him. At the same time, he sensed fierce killing intent directed toward him. He could back down, but backing down was not the option for him with his current condition. Even the young man could no longer fight; it was the same for him as well. With his body, even Epic Rank Knight could kill him…

He could no longer continue the fight and had to grab the man in front of him so that he could stop the war. That was the best bet for him, threatening The Tyrant Force with their leader. However, before he could grab the young man, there was a force that hit his chest.

”Urgh!” Alton was sent flying backward and crashed to the ground. From the force that hit him, the old knight was sure that the one who kicked him did not intend to kill him. Even so, Alton tried to get up immediately. The moment he managed to stand up, he saw the unexpected figure standing twenty meters away from him.

The figure stood there, protecting his enemy. ”Kirin!?” Yes, the one who was in front of him was the Guardian Beast, Kirin. ”But why?” Alton was confused. Why would the Guardian Beast protect Tang Shaoyang? Wasnʼt she supposed to drive The Tyrant away? The Tyrant had been wreaking havoc in Gigante Forest, the force that disrupted the peace within the forest.

”You are not in the position to question me, Beast Covenʼs Chief!” Kalliyan responded coldly. Even though she appeared to be aloof outside, she was so scared inside. The moment she arrived in this place with the Dark Tribeʼs force, she sensed the bond between her and her Master weakened. She rushed over and saw Alton trying to grab her Master.

Kalliyan then turned around and checked her Masterʼs condition. Tang Shaoyangʼs expression was in pain, and his skin turned dark. She noticed two small horns popped out on his forehead, but the horns slowly sunk back. ”What happened?” She looked around, but no one was around him. The Angel was leading the army to fight against the Beast Coven.

The Kirin then turned back toward Alton before checking her Master for the second time. Aside from being unconscious, she did not see any injuries on his body, and her Master looked fine, nothing dangerous from her eyes.

”Letʼs end the war first. That Angel might know something that happened to him.” Kalliyan muttered before approaching Alton. ”Give up, Old Knight! Or else you and your people have to die here!”

Altonʼs eyes widened in shock when those words came out from The Guardian Beast. He stayed in Gigante Forest for years, and he knew The Kirinʼs temper. She did not like war, especially if the invader attacked the forest. She would come out and drive away the intruders. In this case, The Tyrant was the outsider as he had established the Beast Coven as the top four tribes in Gigante Forest.

”But why?” Alton did not understand at all. Not only did she protect Tang Shaoyang, but she also took their side instead of his side. The old knight tried to comprehend what happened with the Guardian Beast.

”Because he is My Master, and I advise you to give up if you donʼt want your people to get killed.” Kalliyan arrived in front of the knight. The three meters tall Kirin looked down at the old knight that still could not believe the situation. ”I donʼt know why Master did not use the real transformation, but he is stronger than you thought, Old Knight. Just give up and follow My Master.”

Alton snapped out of his shock as his face twisted in rage. ”Do you think you can convince me with just that? Do you expect me to believe your words? If not for you, your Master is dead already!”

All of a sudden, the sky darkened. The Kirin and Alton subconsciously looked up, and the thick dark aura filled the atmosphere, blocking the sunlight. ”What did you say? Who do you want to kill?”

Kalliyanʼs body shuddered slightly when she heard the voice. She recognized the voice. It was Angelʼs voice. She turned around, and the Angel of Death was right above them. Zara looked at the unconscious Tang Shaoyang before looking at the old knight and the Kirin.

”What happened!?” Zara questioned Kalliyan with her demanding tone. Kalliyan knew that the Angel could not kill her because of the contract; she did not show her fear. ”That should be my question. I just arrived here.”

Zara immediately turned toward Alton with her sharp gaze. Her beautiful eyes turned deep black, and even a fiercer killing intent focused on Alton.

Plop!

Alton fell on his butts as his heart was beating furiously. He opened his mouth, but no words were coming out of his mouth. Fear, yes, this was fear. He did not expect that he would feel fear after he reached the Legend Rank.

”I donʼt think you should kill him. The fact he did not die after fighting with Master meant Master wanted him alive.ʼ Kalliyan voiced her thoughts. That was the only reason why her Master did not transform into a dragon to kill the old knight.

”Death is a mercy for him. I wonʼt kill him…” The Angel of Death made an evil smile.
