Level Up Legacy Chapter 660: Guild Masters

Chapter 660: Guild Masters

The scene below was that of h.e.l.l, and it was as such for those experiencing it. If one looked back on the strikes that landed on Amelio, then he would find that none of them left a wound except for Arthur's attack.

"Do no break formation!" shouted Ilia Perli as he saw his soldiers get blown away by a single fist. "He is nothing but stats! We can predict his movements!"

That was correct for the most part. Amelio had no abilities that could surprise them, and all of his attacks were simple. Except for his Heaven's Waves strikes, he had nothing. However, sometimes, absolute strength needed no tricks.

"Aaaah," yawned Amelio while rubbing his face. He looked at the flying vessel above and then at the tired soldiers before he jumped on more time.

However, like in the times before, the Shadow Queen appeared below him and grabbed his shadow, pulling him back to the ground. This was the only method to restrain Amelio from running after Arthur Silvera.

Amelio was yanked back to the ground just like before, and he unleashed another attack. Again, the air pressure generated by the fist descended on all of them, making their bones creak as If they would break.

Ilia Perli stood firm against the attack, which buried his feet to the ground. If that attack struck the ground or any of them, it would unleash tremendous destruction.

"Do you know how hard it is to hold back?" landed Amelio back on the ground while glaring at them. "It seems that dogs need to be taught who controls their lives."

Amelio looked around, scanning the faces of the soldiers, gobkins, and the shadow warriors. Then, his eyes landed on the scholar knight at the far back, launching an arrow after the other.

"You pierced my arm earlier, did you not?" asked Amelio with intrigue. "My skin can be considered the toughest metal in the world. Even if an arrow can scratch it, it can never pierce it. So you have an ability that suits your weapon or a mastery like no other."

"I have both," said the scholar knight while adjusting his gla.s.ses. "This is my ability, Axis," said the scholar knight while raising his bow. "There is nothing that my arrows cannot pierce, and my art allows me to never miss."

"Then, you must be quite the a.s.set for this kingdom," smiled Amelio before turning toward Ilia Perli. "Tell me, Major General Ilia. Who would it be if you had to choose one of your men?"

"Choose?" frowned Ilia at the ominous men.

"If you had to choose one to die."

The atmosphere chilled several degrees at the words, and Ilia Perli stared at the fallen G.o.d with a cold-stoned face. However, he did not answer.

"It seems that all of them are dear to you, so I will choose," said Amelio before taking a step forward. Ever since the beginning of the battle, Amelio did not try to rush toward them. The Fallen G.o.d disappeared when his leg moved and reappeared in another location.

"You should risk your life in battle if you are going to attack," said Amelio as he stood behind the scholar knight. "No need to be so far while acting so mighty. Come on, pierce me."

The knight's body froze in fear as he could tell that the man behind him was capable of ending his life in an instant. Then, as his limbs began to shake, the scholar knight rushed to draw his bowstring and turn toward Amelio.

"Pierce," muttered Amelio as he reached toward the knight's neck. His finger stabbed through his neck and came out the other side cleanly. The scholar knight did not even manage to react before blood pooled in his mouth.

Ilia Perli watched the knight turn toward him, death residing in his body and fear in his eyes. Then, he opened his mouth to cough blood while trying to utter something. However, his vocals were torn by the attack, and he fell to the ground with no final words.

"Rio!" shouted another one of his men closest to Amelio, and he rushed to strike as well. The soldier's sword slashed toward Amelio before the fallen G.o.d stabbed his throat.

"Pierce."

The finger stabbed his flesh cleanly as if it were the world's sharpest weapon. Two of his soldiers, who were deme-rank warriors, fell dead in seconds.

The difference in their strength crushed their morale. Moreover, it proved that Amelio had been toying with them since earlier, and he was in no way serious about fighting them.

"I will show you something interesting too," said Amelio before reaching his hand toward the corpse of the scholar knight. "Absorb."

Then, an object that the scholar knight held in his hand from the corpse rose. It was the weapon that he fought with, Axis. Amelio grabbed it and raised it high for them to see.

"A fallen G.o.d who has nothing but stats, huh?" asked Amelio as he stared at the weapon. "Do not underestimate me, humans. There is nothing… that I cannot do."

Amelio pulled the bowstring of Axis before aiming at the soldiers. Then, he released it before Ilia could order his men to flee. A shockwave was generated that pa.s.sed through countless soldiers before splitting them.

"Do not stand in a single spot! Rea.s.sume formation!" shouted Ilia Perli with a pained face as he watched his beloved soldiers be killed in a matter of seconds. The rest of the soldiers realized the fear known as Amelio before they all retreated and began to run around the battlefield.

"The reason I do not use a weapon is that…" muttered Amelio while staring at Ilia Perli, "everyone would instantly die if I do. That would be too boring, right?"

Ilia Perli could tell with every cell in his body that this man was talking the truth. There was no other reason for him not using a weapon other than the enjoyment of fighting.

"However, I cannot be the only one to fight here," said Amelio while staring at the Skywalkers and the serpent watching the fight in fear. "Are you going to stand there while these bugs annoy me?"

Those that were glared at by Amelio were terrified, making them shake. Major Ilia was sure that the flying humanoids and the Lord of the Avarice were not serving Amelio but being threatened by him.

"Split in half! Protect each other from both sides!" shouted Ilia Perli while lamenting how the situation was getting worse and worse. Arthur Silvera had yet to return from above, but their number was dwindling.

"Can we also lend a helping hand?" asked a voice from behind Ilia Perli, making the Major turn. His eyes widened as he stared at the three newcomers, with over a hundred people behind them. "Sorry for being late, Ilia!"

"Guild Masters!" exclaimed Ilia with surprise as he stared at the two men and woman. "I thought all of you were dungeon raiding at the moment?"

"Let's say that the Yalen King found a way to inform us of the situation," said the man in the center, who had a long gray hair that reached the back of his knees. "I hope the kingdom will compensate us for the wasted dungeon resources."

"Resolving dungeon breaks is a part of your duties," said Ilia Perli with a relieved smile. "Well, the details can be discussed later on. We have a calamity to handle."

Ilia Perli was now relieved. Their kingdom had five Astra-rankers, and now this battlefield had four of them. However, he felt bitter that if these three had appeared earlier, his soldiers wouldn't have died.

'The past is in the past,' stared Ilia at the corpses of the soldiers, who he considered his sons. His heart bled over them, and the blood fueled his rage.

"You seem disconcerted now, Major Ilia," said Amelio as he glanced at the three. "A wild man, a mage, and beauty. Are these three the backbone of this kingdom?"

"To be honest, I would say we are the leeches," said the mage who wore a blue rob. "Well, it matters not. We do rise to the occasion when needed. The rest of you should handle the Lord of Avarice and the flying monsters."

"As you command, guild master!"

A third of the men behind them kneeled on the ground. The man with a long hair nodded, and another third followed. The beauty that Amelio mentioned was a white-haired woman whose every strand of hair was white.

"What should we do, White Fairy?" asked the party behind her. "Should we finish our job from two years ago and kill the Lord of Avarice?"

"We did fail to finish it off at that time," replied the White Fairy while looking at the giant serpent. "I should be able to take it down on my own after growing stronger, so I will let you test your strengths first. As for me… I want to bring down a G.o.d today."
