Monarch Of Darkness, Arsene Chapter 177

Getting closer, I watched as thousands of commoners began blockading the outer gates of the city. This battle had only just begun, but it seemed the Lich was quite proficient in circles as he began raining down powerful spells upon the city.
"Stop here, Loris. If we get any closer, we could potentially be marked as enemies by both sides." I cautiously said as my elder ring began to illuminate, informing my wyvern of what to do. Gliding around the city, I studied both sides, along with the massive crimson circle outside the city pulsing with power.
"He is casting a firebase circle." Orion lightly said, "You can tell by the color of the formation."
Snorting, I rolled my eyes, "Why would I do that? If it were me, I would simply change the color to fool my enemies. Killing is all about deception. Believing a single color represents a certain element is foolish. Elements in nature are more than a certain color."
Narrowing my eyes, my gaze focussed on the man floating within the skies. No skin was seen but rather a dark violet flame that sprung from his bones. He had no heart or organs, for that matter, making it difficult to know what to target. Observing the violet flames burning like stars from his eyes sockets, I began formulating how to kill such a being.
Pulling my gaze away, I could see my dear friend Governor Bo standing at the walls of Serem with a deplorable expression. Sweat could be seen as he bellowed, "Ready the formation, protect the city with your lives."
Suddenly my eyes began to widen as I looked at hundreds of people gathered together. "He is actually going to do it! I did not think he was that cold."
Like watching a person rapidly aging, I witness someone go through multiple life cycles before turning to dust. It was similar to the spell I used within Pendragon, except I could see Bo was able to gather more from his formation than I. I was only able to use three percent of all the billions of lives I took.

"Ready the next batch; he is using a tier five spell." Bo roared as another batch of mortals was gathered. Gulping down, I could feel a powerful fluctuation radiate from the city. "Keep going, use all the prisers we have. We have to stop this spell at all cost."
Pausing for a moment, Governor Bo suddenly turned to me. Watching as his eyes widen, I beamed in joy, waving at the man, "HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I KILLED THEM ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Apply soul force to my words. I watched as Bo shivered in rage as I burst into laughter. Feeling the demonic stare of the Lich, I also waved with an innocent smile of a demonic demon "Good Day Lich-Sama."
Covering her face, Zanris blushed in embarrassment as I waved. Chucking the Lich eyes began to radiate out a powerful light as I felt an intent touch, my soul. However, unlike before, where I didn't understand what a soul attack was, I was ready as darkness stormed his intent. Destroying it before anything unexpected occurred.
A look of surprise and reverence could be seen as he stared at me for a while before turning his attention to the city before him.
Opening my eyes wide, I roared, "MOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Shivering, Loris shot high into there as I gazed down at the very ground, beginning to churn. Like darkness was slowly rising from the depths, a shiver ran through my body as all life was beginning to fade. It did not wither as I thought but rather began to turn to nothingness. Slowly the darkness began to merge together as a being of absolute destruction emerged.
"LORIS HIGHER NOW!!!" Roared Zanris, along with Orion, began pushing qi into Loris in panic. Flexing its massive body, Loris speed increase as we bolted so high up I felt the oxygen within me trying to escape out.
Pushing qi into my eyes, I saw the being of destruction open its arm as chaos swallowed the city hole. Like a bed of chaos had appeared, the darkness began to turn golden in color as bright as the sun. Studying the entity shimmering with golden light and a long scepter and a crown, I quickly began to feel my body breaking apart.

"Holy shit! The Dao of Chaos!" I bellowed
"That was not a tier 5 but rather tier 9. This Lich is capable of using spells at his level." Orion weakly said, releasing a deep breath of fear. "Most being including me cannot use spells at our level. They are just too complicated. Those that can, however, are usually called chosen."
"I have seen enough... Let's go. It was stupid to remain. This lich is not someone we can just fight. To cast such a spell this quickly, he is a monster. This city and all its residents are dead."
Gently patting Loris, we slowly began to decent as the golden sun began to fade away. Looking at how half the city was gone, I signed. This was not Pendragon. In this realm, every little thing was more than ten times stronger. To decimate a city, the power that was needed was... was inconceivable."
Pointing his finger, I could see the amusement within the Lich's eyes as he commanded, "Go forth my children and tear down this city walls. Feast upon the lives I have gifted you. Create for me more brothers and sisters."
With a defining roar, I saw millions of undead charge forth. With a cold sweat, Loris suddenly shot away. Not bothering to look back, I sighed as something odd came into my view.
"Oh?"
Staring at the shooting star, I frowned as it flew straight towards Lich. With a golden sword within his hands, I saw Lord Torgeir with a cold look appear.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
CLeching Loris scales, I could feel blood pool from my palms as I held on for dear life. Feeling the shock wave, I shivered, "Land now, it's too dangerous up here."
Looking around, my eyes began to shine as I saw the red-headed minx standing off in the distance, watching the battle. Pointing towards her, I spoke, "you know what head there. I smell booty!!"
"WHAT!!" Zanris roared as she clenched my collar, "You would sacrifice us just to hit on Silvia?"
Narrowing my eyes, I smiled, "so you know of Silvia. . She is no more than seventeen or eighteen. So how long were you actually in prison." I coldly asked as Zanris opened her eyes wide. She never specified her imprisonment, but I figured it as more than twenty or thirty years.
Curling my lips, Loris slowly grew closer as Silvia waved, "Arsene? How did you get a wyvern?"
Sending Zanris a deep glance, I smiled, turning to the little minx, "the kid here made a deal."
Sending a glance at Orion, Silvia smiled, stretching out her arm, "Sorry for the late introduction. I am Silvia Scara."
Looking at the hesitation, Zanris bowed, "I am called Zanris,"
"And I Orion." Siad the little shota.
Studying the trepidation within Zanris's eyes, I beamed, "So Silvia do you know her. She seems to know you quite well."
"Huh?"
Taking a closer look, Silvia shook her head, 'No, but we are probably related. Most Elves within Midgard come from my line. The rest resides in Álfheim and Svartálfar."
