"Soul skill: Lightning Net prison"
A net of lightning energy fell on top of Berith, who was already facing the effects of 100x gravity and had his chest pierced by the claws of death.
His body was trying to resist both of the forces but the paralyzing effect of the lightning energy forced him to stay still on the spot.
Azzy then went on unleashing the final soul skill of the combo, thinking that it will finish the enemy.
"Soul skill: Spear of Death"
The spear with concentrated death energy appeared in his right hand and he drove it into the middle of Berith's chest.
"Ahhh"
The fallen angel let out a powerful scream before his body started to slowly turn into a stone.
"You bastard… I'll roast you alive…" Berith cursed him in anger as almost three-fourths of his body was petrified. He never expected to get defeated in such a way, and that too, by a teenage-looking fellow who was a 7-star Arcana Master.
Looking straight at the demon that was covered by the aura of death, Azzy calmly replied, "Then, go on… Use your entire strength and resist your death. Once you do that, then, it will alert the gods. Then, you will surely lose your job and then be imprisoned in Tartarus prison."
"You…" Berith was full of rage but he knew that he cannot fall into the trap by raising his strength to the demigod realm. The rate of Petrifaction had now crossed 80%. Everything below his neck was petrified and he cannot undo it.
It was then something clicked in his mind and his anger faded away.
"Oh my god, the guy did it."
"Who is that expert anyways? Why I have never heard of a teenage-looking hidden expert until now?"
"Perhaps, he is a hidden expert from the legendary Zero Squad? See, he is wearing a mask. That means he wants to hide his identity."
"Was he perhaps a wandering Arcana master?"
"He looks like he is at 7-star realm but in reality, way stronger than our President. Must be a Supreme being who was nearby and came to help us"
"Whoever it is, he saved us"
"That damn demon… he killed our brothers"
"What is Supreme Commander even doing out there? He hasn't come down to help us at all."
"Hmpf, why will an elf help humans anyway?"
"Shh… mind your words. If someone hears it, you will face terrible consequences."
"Ugh… I'm tired…"
"Me too, I want to go back to my home. Somehow, I miss my family very much… After returning to HQ, I'll apply for the leave"
"Whoever summoned the demon, if I get my hands on him, I'll roast him alive…"
"Yeah, me too…"
All sorts of murmurs filled the place as it appeared that the battle is finally over.
Meanwhile, Azzy momentarily shifted his focus to President Cornelius and Vice President Ramiel.
He was about to reach out to them and remove those demonic daggers that are not only trying to corrupt their system but also interrupting their recovery.
It was at that moment, all of a sudden, a wisp of smoke escaped Berith and landed elsewhere.
Berith's body petrified before turning into ashes. However, another Berith appeared just like before.
Azzy became alert and hurriedly took out his SP recovery card to recover his lost soul energy. "Did this guy escape death?"
"The avatar split his soul, Azrael." A reply came from the Reaper. "Good thing is that his power was now limited to peak-rank-9 but it is also a worse thing at the same time."
"What do you mean?" Azzy frowned inwardly.
But, before he received the answer from the Reaper, the demon gave it himself. Letting out laughter filled with malice, Berith announced, "I rescind my statement, kid. Today, you will die but I will take your soul back with me and let you experience what eternal damnation is. But, before that, I will have to take away the lives of those spectators who were enjoying my death earlier."
The spectators panicked once again.
Berith's eyes glowed brightly as he raised his hands.
Through his fingers, streams of demonic energy were shot into the two people nearby Azzy's feet.
Azzy was forced to back away as Cornelius and Ramiel floated in the air, enveloped by the demonic energy.
Their wounds were completely healed as they landed on the ground but their eyes turned scarlet red without any visible pupils.
"Careful, Azrael. He is now mind-controlling these two fellas," spoke the Reaper. At the same time, the dead metallic golems flew toward the largest golem before they all merged with it only to increase more problems.
However, surprisingly, they didn't merge to become a bigger golem; instead, all of them were compressed to form a humanoid metal puppet.
"Oi, you bodybuilder, hold him." "And you shorty, you take care of the remaining humans in the 8-star realm."
Berith passed the instructions to his new puppets as the humanoid golem went on a killing spree.
Azzy clenched his fist and stared at the demon, never feeling so much hatred for someone in his life. His soul energy and the collected natural energy erupted from him, forming a dual layer over his body.
Because of the gravity suppression skill card being active, Cornelius' speed was extremely slow.
As Cornelius was about to pass Azzy, the latter threw a punch at his fastest speed.
The President of WAMO couldn't dodge it and was struck on his side and crashed onto the ground, more than a dozen meters away. Azzy glanced behind where Dragon Corps' commander was standing, "Sir, leave them to me. I'll handle them until Commander Kruger completes the seal. Go and take care of the golem."
Curtis Hagen is a veteran who knew his priorities. After watching Azzy's earlier actions against the enemy, he put his belief in Azzy whom he had never met before and made the judgment.
He gritted his teeth to stand in the 100x gravity field and rushed toward the humanoid at his fastest speed while being covered by the layer of his soul energy to lessen the pressure.
Unfortunately, he wasn't able to get there in time and three of his subordinates were killed in the meantime; the rest of them were bombarding the target with all of their techniques.
Once he was out of the range (100 meters), his speed was restored to the peak and he captured its legs with threads of energy as it was about to move forward and kill another target.
After pulling the thread and making it fall down, he landed in front of the golem and proceeded to shout loudly so that everyone in the field could hear him.
"This is Commander Curtis of Dragon Corps. 7-star and below, don't engage the monster. Take the support role. I repeat, take a support role."
Soon, the other two legendary realm experts also made their move while the rest of them moved far away.
Meanwhile, Azzy was attacked by Ramiel and Cornelius simultaneously.
Because of the gravitational field under Azzy's control and adding to the fact that his two superiors were trying to resist the mind control and holding back their strength, he was able to evade their attacks with ease and engaged in close combat without any proper result.
Berith's expression turned ugly. "These puppets are useless. It seems that I will have to take action by myself. But, I should negate this gravity field. It is giving me quite a headache."
