Undead Beast Master: Living Solely for My Desires-Chapter 256: A Mortal’s Resolve

'In need time! I need time!' the Demigod thought as it tried to get away as fast as possible.

Thanks to the fact that it had two sets of wings, it seemed that it would be able to outspeed Zaroth's dragon and hide until it recovered.

That was until an arrow of pure fire soared through the sky towards it and collided.

The Demigod didn't have any time to react due to the unnatural speed of the devastating arrow, so it didn't have time to even attempt to use its will.

As soon as the arrow collided with the body of the Demigod, a giant thunderclap echoed across the capital's lands from the sheer force alone.

ROOOAAAAAARRR

The Demigod let out another high-pitched roar in pain.

Who was it now?! Who had dared to go against it?!

It wasn't hard to find the reason, as a graceful, tall woman with crimson eyes and long, glowing orange hair stood amidst a fire—Solara Virelia.

"Another mortal dares to go against me?!" the Demigod's words sounded like the catalyst itself.

It will kill them! It will kill all those that have gone against it and its world rule!

ROOOAAAAAARRR

However, the Demigod of Chaos had no time to drown in its bloodlust as Luna's roar tore through the air—and her fangs sank deep into its body.

Once again, the momentum was too great, and the Demigod was pushed back by the sheer pressure alone.

As before, the Demigod brought its limbs together as it was ready to hit Luna's skull again, trying to make her let go. But before the devastating attack could hit its mark, a person appeared on Luna's skull—Elysia.

With unwavering resolve, she raised her arms high, and through sheer force of will, met the colossal entity's attack head-on.

A storm formed as soon as the attack hit Elysia's hands, but she held, as well as Luna.

Simultaneously, the inside of Luna's throat glowed with fiery light as she unleashed a devastating inferno. Her jaws no longer only threatened to crush the Demigod's repulsive form—now, her inferno was slowly turning its flesh to ash.

"GO!" Zaroth shouted as he summoned all of his beasts. They moved with no hesitation as they climbed upon the arms that Elysia was keeping in place and went straight for the Demigod's head.

The eyes of the Demigod glowed as it let out an earth-shattering roar in an attempt to stop them.

However, the beast that was at the front was Silverfang. It opened its maw and let out a howl of its own.

Silverfang's howl was nothing in comparison to the Demigod's, but it managed to redirect some of the pressure, causing it to go around Zaroth and his beasts rather than hit them head-on.

While this was happening, Hellweaver pushed onward, seemingly unbothered by the great pressure of the screech or the wind as it got close to the Demigod's head.

Thanks to the fact that it was a spider, as it moved there were always legs that were on the ground. This, coupled with the fact that the beast was heavy, meant that it wouldn't need to worry about being blown off.

The beasts moved without fear—this was something that the Demigod had noticed even since he was Draconis. Zaroth's beasts had no fear in throwing away their lives. That would mean that they were either always able to heal, or they had been already dead.

That meant one thing: the Demigod wouldn't be able to get rid of them—and more importantly, the dragon—by just attacking them, as it seemed that they would be able to take any attack with no worry.

Hellweaver reached the head of the Demigod and brought its devastating fangs unto its body, managing to pierce it—not that the poisen had much effect on a Demigod in the first place.

Yet that meant that all of Zaroth's beasts were now close to it and not to their master.

Snapping its focus to Zaroth, the Demigod's eyes shined as it willed for the man to be attacked.

Zaroth's eyes widened as in an instant he was surrounded by all kinds of spells that were trailing toward him with full speed.

Some were elemental, some physical, and some not being able to be defined.

At that moment it was certain: Zaroth was going to die. He had already been hurt pretty badly, and if he took all of these attacks, not only would he die, but his body would be nowhere to be found as it would have turned into ash.

Yet his body and mind felt no fear as his eyes narrowed like a hunter, and the darkness of the night moved towards his body, wrapping around it, protecting it.

In that moment, he was so grateful that he had approached Midnight that day, because if he hadn't, he would have died without Darkveil.

"ZAROTH!" Elysia's worried shout was cut short as the attacks collided with his body. A big mushroom cloud rose in the air from Luna's back.

Elysia gritted her teeth but didn't let go of the limbs of the Demigod. If Zaroth had died, his beasts would have disappeared as well. Yet they were still here—he was still alive—but she wasn't able to see to what extent, as it seemed that the Demigod had had enough.

"Fine! If nothing works, then I will make you regret going against me!" Its words echoed across the land, as if the being itself were a force of destruction. Not a second later, hundreds of different attacks manifested around its body. But rather than targeting those fighting against it, the attacks rained down on the civilian houses below.

Elysia's eyes darkened even more. She knew why the spineless coward was doing this. By attacking the civilians, the Demigod hoped that Elysia would let go and try to protect the innocent.

Under normal circumstances, she would have… but at the moment, her priority was to kill the Demigod. It shouldn't be allowed to get a better grasp of its power! If it did and it began to cause chaos in the world, the death toll would be in the hundreds of millions!

Not to mention that she wasn't alone—there was a man that stood by her side.

Finally, after the cloud of smoke disappeared from Zaroth's body, the man came into plain view. His state was abysmal.

The skin on his face was mostly gone, along with his left eye. More precisely, the entire left side of his head had been blown off, taking his eye and ear with it.

The armor that Elysia had gifted him had countless cracks, as it had begun to come undone due to the fact that it had reached its limit.

And yet, curiously enough, the green gem embedded in the armor's chest plate was still intact, meaning that Zaroth had yet to be struck by a fatal blow.

Opening his mouth, he let out a sigh, though rather than air, black smoke came out from it.

Even with the adrenaline flooding his system, he was overwhelmed by unspeakable pain. It felt as if his entire body and mind were falling apart.

And yet he was not ready to give up. The voice in his head that demanded that he kill the Demigod in front of him wasn't planning to let him rest.

"When will this end?" he asked as he weakly raised his right eye, only to see that the Demigod's hands had been caught in a trap by Elysia, making a path from him to its head.

At this moment, Zaroth's healthy eye shined as he unsheathed the odachi at his back.

And shot forward, ready to deliver the final attack.
