Chapter 326: Winner And King Of Middle

The massive destruction of the attack was now causing the mountain itself to collapse. The earthquakes inside the underground cave continued when a powerful Force Wall shot out and prevented it from falling.

Shellcross focused his Force on stabilizing the collapsing ceiling.

Darako also did the same, and a putrid dark power began to creep over the ground and rush to the walls and ceilings to help it stabilize.

Hearalcus and Neteri were exhausted as they watched the deteriorating ice land before them. Finally, the two revealed their final aces. This was an attack that Heralcus and Neteri prepared to give the Nephilim and his armies no chance to fight back. The attack combined various Corruption and Codes that they had. They could only use it for a split second, but the results were more than satisfactory. The attack they performed reached an attack power of over 700 points! That was a power level equal to those who have Victor's Crown potential!

The combined attack of the two had changed the landscape so that nothing remained.

Heralcus raised his arms, and several pillars made of bones of different creatures suddenly tore from the ground and held the ceiling up. With that, the collapse of the mountain stopped.

"The Temple of the Nephilim is destroyed!" Qara rejoiced.

"Victory!" The army of Heralcus began to cheer. The sounds of men, orcs, monstrous cultivators began to shout in unity as they saw that they had won.

"Till death!" A roar was heard on the other end.

Suddenly, a rain of arrows and magical attacks began to shoot out towards the army.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Heralcus and Neteri frowned and blocked the attack.

They were exhausted and retreated while Shellcross moved to the front to take the blows aimed for Neteri and Heralcus.

BOOM!

"They are still alive!" Shellcross frowned.

Angered by the ambush, the head of the Okto-Khefali appeared above Heralcus, and it shot a beam of ice.

A massive Holy Wall appeared on the other end.

BOOM!

A small group of survivors constituting of wounded archers and mages could be seen.

Mezal, Branze, and Diana stood in front of them and held the wall. Their appearances were ragged, and blood was trickling down everywhere.

Faye, Demerus, and Stelly charged angrily as their eyes were red in anger.

"For our sisters!" They shouted and wildly deployed their shields.

A massive Wyrm's head appeared, and it roared and shot a dark beam.

Martha teleported out and punched Qara as she raged.

"Martha! Retreat!" Aron pleaded as he crawled out of a trench on the far end of the underground region.

But Martha was so enraged that she stood her ground and shot out arrows of darkness.

But suddenly, a massive bone wall appeared and divided the two.

"Organize the men and prepare to charge! This is their last stand! Commanders! Do not take them lightly! These cornered rats can still bite!" Heralcus ordered and created a massive bone wall that raised to the ceiling.

"I will drop the ceiling, and we all charge. Leave the Nephilim to me!" Heralcus ordered.

"Yes, Cardinal!"

"Everyone! Let our powers combine!" Martha ordered on the other side of the wall.

"Earth!"

"Fire!"

"Wind!"

"Water!"

"Entropy!"

Several cries followed, and a powerful magic and force energy could be detected on the other side of the bone wall.

"Lord Cardinal." Neteri approached and offered to add soul to defend the bone wall.

"Relax. My wall won't falter easily." Heralcus harnessed his energy, and the bone wall was now glowing with pale green energy.

"Attack on my command! For Lord Kyros! Holy Beam!" Martha shouted again.

BOOOOOOOOOM!

A massive beam shot from the back of the army of Heralcus. It tore through the lines killing all that it touched.

The attack was so fast that no one had time to react.

BOOM!

The beam reached the Commanders and Heralcus, pressed into the bone wall.

"AHHHHH!" Shellcross shouted in pain.

"NOOOO!" Darako was vulnerable to the holy light and began to deteriorate.

The beam lasted for several seconds and finally dispersed.

The bone wall still remained standing. But there were massive cracks and the pale energy that once covered it disappeared.

Darako's body was revealed. It was a strange, skinny creature covered in strange goo. It was even smaller than Kyros's young form.

Darako collapsed and breathed its last.

Shellcross also fell to the ground and was barely able to move.

Heralcus was trembling as wounds appeared all over his face. He cast a defensive spell at the last minute, but the attack was too strong to defend that Heralcus focused on defending himself in the last few seconds of the attack.

He saw at the very end of the entrance that they moved into was the Temple of the Nephilim.

A lone figure was moving deeper into the cave and was headed towards Heralcus.

The bright Temple behind him made him appear as a silhouette in the eyes of Heralcus.

The silhouette that approached soon came to sight, and it was a young boy. 

He was wearing a cape, and the wind that mysteriously blew sideways caused this cape grandly.

He held a sword in his hand, which was burning with Balefire.

His walk was slow and defined, and soon, his appearance was revealed.

Kyros smiled as he held his sword.

"You guys should have paid attention. Of the several meteors we sent out, I was right inside one of them. It was a risky gamble. Had you chosen to attack that specific, I would have died right then and there. But thankfully, you followed my plans and chose to redirect the meteors to conserve energy. You didn't notice that one flew all the way to the exit." Kyros explained as he moved closer.

Neteri and Qara were slowly trying to stand up. They were able to ready their defenses as Heralcus blocked the initial attack, but when his shield failed due to its hasty creation, the pair had to block the attacks themselves. 

Qara's two wings were burned off. She had used it to shield herself.

Neteri was out of the souls she had, and her right arm was burned up.

"The Temple...!" Qara cursed as she saw the Temple.

"That was a marvelous attack! Too bad you missed it by this much."

[Taunt of Tyrannus activated.]

"YOU! YOU DID THIS!" 

"Who were you expecting? Chuck Norris?" Kyros sneered.

"I believe a little explanation is necessary before I kill you. You see, I have the ability to move the entire Temple. I can take it and store it in a dimensional space, and I can summon it out at will. I knew you would send out an attack that could easily destroy the [Holy Barrier] of my Temple. And I didn't want you to damage my precious Temple. That was quite an attack! But too bad we already prepared for it. Behind the Temple, at the furthest end of this underground region, we build a very, very deep pit. When you attacked, I told my team to stand their ground and retreat as your attack approached. Calaminus activated his Time Acceleration ability, and the mages created a bright flashing light. You wouldn't suspect it as you would think it was just the Holy Beam or the Holy Barrier casting a protective spell. But the real reason was that it was used to conceal their escape. They dove down the pit, and your massive attack missed."

"You coward! Your weak and scared of my power!" Heralcus roared.

"Scared of your power? You misunderstand. In a fight, I can choose to block or evade an attack. If evading is cowardice, then all of you are cowards as you will naturally evade attacks you can't block. That was an attack that only Victor Crowns could do! Obviously, my choice would be to evade it. My team retreated and jumped on the deep pit. The moment I sensed the Holy Barrier collapse, I teleported the Temple. And with your backs facing me, I just couldn't resist but send out a Holy Beam. And thank you, Cardinal. I was worried that my Holy Beam would hurt my allies. Thank you for creating that wall." Kyros chuckled.

"You tricked me! You tricked me!" Heralcus shouted angrily.

"I am a Cardinal! I am far stronger than you! I am supposed to be the winner of Middle!"

"Gonna cry? Pipe down, you whiner. See the difference between the grand majesty of a winner. And look around to see the pitiful ending of the whiner. I already told you I am the winner of this chess match. So come and receive your Destiny. You shall die at my hands." Kyros laughed as several Elemental Cores appeared around him.

The Earth Core, the Water Core, and the Lightning Core took from Eredus, Faust, and Lucas appeared. The Fire Core that Scarlet received from the Temple also appeared.

It lacked a few elements, but Kyros could still wield the power of the Celestial Code.

The four cores began to float behind him, and an energy conversion circle appeared with each core in a specific position.

The power of the Elements raged, and a bright light appeared around Kyros.

He was finally using the job class that he had used in his previous life.

The Celestial Paladin had returned.
