21岁的胜夏的偶像秘密日记

Chapter 4 - The True Eldrich



The pair moved and mowed down the many enemies that stood in their way. Many mighty warriors fell at the hands of the two. Kyros and Mechiel\'s teamwork was excellent. While the two had never fought together, they were in perfect understanding of each other\'s habits. Both have studied how to counter each other\'s abilities. And because they knew each other\'s strengths and abilities, they knew how to wield them.

Kyros was enjoying the Soul Devourer, and Mechiel was leading her enemies to attack her without fear because of the Celestial Guard. The enemies were also tricked. They knew Mechiel was a Vampire and held astonishing Dark powers. The Paladin was known by many warriors and assumed that he wielded powers of the Light.

Even among the Eldrich, various clans were vying for supreme power. The information about Kyros\'s potential was kept a secret by the Eldirch clan that discovered Kyros\'s condition.

Now, there were various soldiers from the Eldrich facing them.

Most of these warriors still underestimated the two, for this was the Midlands. A weak and fringe kingdom that rarely produced mighty warriors.

And so, they attacked Mechiel and Kyros. And they all died.

Kyros glanced and finally saw the exit. They would soon be out of the gate.

"What\'s the plan? How are we supposed to escape from here?"

"An Energy Catapult. The Eldrich brought some here. We use that to catapult ourselves over the wall. And into a certain area. I\'ve already ordered my men to position them before rescuing you. We keep riding them until we escape."

"We are going to be... live rounds?"

"With your Celestial Guard and my Dark Swamp, the impact shouldn\'t hurt... much."

Kyros smiled as he approved of the insanity of Mechiel.

"Concentrate on fighting for now. I will answer all your questions. Why I saved you, who killed your mercenary force, and who killed your adoptive parents." Mechiel spoke as she rushed towards the group of enemies.

Kyros was stunned. He couldn\'t believe Mechiel\'s words. How could she know?

Kyros, however, was not distracted by this. On the contrary, he fought with more focus as he was determined to escape this place. Hope had filled the once-broken heart of Kyros. Could this be the start of a new life for him?

The two fought across the army and began to battle the many races. But none could overpower the pair.

Soon, the soldiers began to hesitate. It seemed that the two only grew stronger in combat!

But suddenly...

BOOM!

A figure crashed from the sky and created a deep impression on the ground. Kyros and Mechiel were able to evade it at the last moment. The two looked towards the source of the hole and couldn\'t help but have a trembling sensation all over their body.

Not every race, every person, or being is created equal in this harsh world. Some are born with an innate aptitude for battle. Some were born to be heroes, while others were born to be like gods among men. The Purest blood of the Elderich was such a being.

They had the physical strength no weaker than demon-kin, magic that could challenge the Elven race, inexhaustible stamina for might, and magic that could level with the dragon-kin.

Yet this was not because they had brutish physical strength, nor did they have element cores that the Elves had or innate biology superior to the rest. The reason why this being stood a level higher than most races is because of their soul. These were borne with their souls already manifesting in the physical realms.

The figure of a pale-white humanoid stood at the center of the crater. His hair was glowing white. His eyes were like fire. He had a very gentlemanly attire that was clean and untainted. His features looked so young, but his countenance felt so ancient. But it could not hide the reddish hue that his body naturally released.

"This is an Eldrich? What was that kid that I fought back then?" Kyros frowned. When he defended the Omega Kingdom, his wounded state was not because of the many enemies that fought him. No one was able to touch him. It was the Eldrich Noble who fought him that brought him to that wounded state. And yet, that noble didn\'t even have the glowing white and fiery eyes that this being had.

The Eldrich had a bored look as he gazed at Kyros and then at Mechiel.

"What\'s going on here? You guys were so noisy that my brothers said I should take care of this. What did you do to my Elderich Captain, Queen Mechiel?"

"I paralyzed them."

"Oh. No wonder they aren\'t here to stop you. So you merely paralyzed them. I see. That way, we won\'t implicate your army." The man yawned.

"I have read the reports. I don\'t care how skilled this man is or what you think of him. He will become a vessel for our soul."

"Which is why I am betraying you, my lord. This is one thing I cannot allow. I owe it to him." Mechiel then transformed.

Darkness consumed Mechiel as two dark wings that looked like fire appeared. Her entire body suddenly had a dark-purple armor. Her fangs grew longer, and her spear was coated in the same dark-purple form.

"Pity. I planned to make you a mate to my boy." The Eldrich sighed.

Kyros also released his powers. From the Celestial Realm, he summoned his armor. Using the harnessed souls in his arms, he used the Celestial power to reform his armor.

The Celestial Paladin\'s Armor coated Kyros, and he was once again back to the golden armor that made him famous.

"Gold God Kyros. That\'s what they call here, right? Impressive. Very impressive. You seem to have unlocked a heritage of a god. This should be fun."

"I can\'t believe that they have monsters like this in the Eldrich Race. And here I thought I wouldn\'t need to get serious." Kyros sighed.

"This is just for show. The truth is much more shrouded than this." Mechiel replied.

Kyros realized what Mechiel said.

"Alright. Let\'s see if you can withstand one blow." The Eldrich chuckled.

And he waved his hand to send his attack.

Kyros rushed forward and channeled his energy onto his shield. He then did something that didn\'t make sense. Kyros jumped.

Right behind him, Mechiel also jumped and began to hold on to the back of Kyros. For some strange reason, she was pulling Kyros as if trying to adjust where he was. She used her powers to keep herself behind Kyros as she channeled dark energy that also began to cover Kyros\'s shield.

BOOM!

An invisible force struck the two and sent them flying a great distance back.

The Eldrich frowned as he saw it.

"What idiocy. Did they think that riding the force of my attack will weaken the damage?" The Eldrich laughed as he slowly walked towards the direction where the two were.

"Still, that Kyros is rather strong. To be able to withstand that attack. Bravo." The Eldrich smiled.

It was then that he saw it from a distance.

A large fireball suddenly flew towards the heavens. An energy catapult had the ability to launch an attack more than ten kilometers from the current location.

"An Energy Catapult?" The Eldrich wondered as he gazed towards it. The catapult\'s attack flew off to the distance and landed somewhere.

"Who would fire it now? Are there enemies?" The Eldrich wondered.

And then another catapult was launched. It seemed to have come from the very same place where the first volley landed.

It was then that the Eldrich\'s expression changed into horror.

Using Celestial Guard and Dark Swamp, which provided a cushion for landing, the pair would crash on the ground and mount another Catapult conveniently positioned nearby. The guards near the catapult were confused at the scene.

They saw the Queen of Bloodcrest arrive and mount the next catapult and was thrown off further. Then the catapult would explode as Mechiel would drop a small bomb she had prepared.

Four catapults later, and the group was in the clear.

They had traveled over 40 kilometers in an instant and reached the swampland that existed just outside of Omega Kingdom. This was Omega\'s first line of defense as the swampland was a particularly hard terrain for an army to cross. But for Mechiel and Kyros, this was the perfect place to disappear and throw off the search parties.

The phrase that Mechiel said was something that Kyros was familiar with. On one of their clashes, Mechiel was ordered to trap and kill Kyros. And just when Mechiel thought she was victorious, Kyros had pretended to be struck by Mechiel to send him into a warp pad that Kyros discovered on an earlier quest. And just like their catapult escape, Kyros had destroyed the portal before Mechiel could use it.

Kyros laughed as he stood up and wiped the blood off his mouth. The two were lying down on the ground. The quick and consecutive launches had caused them to expend nearly all of their energy.

"I knew that we would be the only people who could do this. The Celestial Paladin who could harness the fire for added protection and Celestial Guard to protect us. My assistance in solidifying the shield and softening our landing would ensure our survival." Mechiel slowly lifted up her bloodied body.

"We have to move now. We cannot be careless. Who knows what the Elderich has to trace our escape."

Kyros nodded. But suddenly, his expression changed.

He gazed on the empty area nearby. Space began to crack as if it was glass and a familiar figure emerged.
