Chapter 156.2: Black Rose Garden

BGM: Malevolent Shrine

===

「If we defeat the Dark Knight, can you give me his corpse? If things go according to my plan, I might be able to turn him into my kin.」

Zaffrada was laughing maniacally.

I don't think it was possible to turn that Dark Knight into Zaffrada's kin.

But it might be possible if he was in the form of a corpse.

「If that's the case, can I have that silver haired girl, father? If possible, alive. I want her as my wife.」

When Zasha made his request after Zaffrada, she glared at him.

「Zasha. You're not picky when it comes to women right? That bi*tch shall become a seedbed for Zalbuth's maggots.」

「But big sister… I think it's such a waste to let that beauty become a seedbed for big brother Zalbuth's maggots, rather…」

He got flustered when Zaffrada glared at him.

They might be my children, but what in the world were they talking about?

They were just like those idiot male gods who joined Diadona's faction.

Diadona gave them a promise that she would give them the Goddesses as those male Gods' slaves on the day Elios was destroyed.

They were such idiots. There was no way Diadona would spare those goddesses who inheritd Mina's blood.

As for that silver-haired girl, I had no idea who she was, but she wasn't an Elios Goddess.

If that was the case, I didn't really care about her as long as she wasn't a descendant of Mina. Because in the end, everyone is going to die.

Except for my kin of course.

「Sure. That girl is yours.」

「Really! Yaay!」

「Dear father!」

Zasha's delight aside, Zaffrada was really pissed off.

But, the Dark Knight was still alive and kicking, we should focus on winning this fight first.

「Humph, such a girl is just a trivial matter compared to the Dark Knight. Rather, it's time to attack.」

Their skyship crashed to the ground after being struck by the super maximum magic, true spirit decaying wound blue flash, from Modegal.

I thought they would try to escape with the dragon alas, it seems they had no intention to escape.

Yeah, they didn't escape with their tails between their legs.

Not that they could do that since I already summoned my kin in this region.

I looked at Modegal.

Though it needs a vast amount of magical power to move, I could still hold on a while longer.

It could move far more easily if I still had the soul orb with me but, whatever. It would return to me immediately anyway.

The vanguard, Zalbuth, stopped in his tracks suddenly.

What happened?

「What's the matter? Why are you stopping?」

Zalbuth kept looking in front of him.

There, right before us, was the silver-haired girl and the Dark Knight, riding on a dragon.

They were surrounded by female daemons riding on wyverns.

It seems they decided to attack us.

Ridiculous, their last ditch effort to turn the tables would be crushed by Modegal.

「GO MODEGAL! CRUSH THEM!」

Modegal advanced.

But just when it was about to walk again, its footsteps came to a halt.

「What's the matter? Why are you stopping now, Modegal?!」

Modegal tried to walk forward alas, it seemed its feet were tripping on something.

「FATHER!? THERE ARE THORNY SHRUBS ON MODEGAL'S FEET!?」

I looked at Modegal's feet when Zaffrada told me so.

Over there, I saw thorny shrubs of black roses growing as they coiled around Modegal's feet.

「IMPOSSIBLE!? WHY AREN'T THEY WITHERING!? NO FLOWER CAN SURVIVE WHEN TOUCHED BY MODEGAL!」

Modegal was an evil existence.

If a weak creature touched it, it would rot and die. And yet, the black rose that coiled around Modegal's feet didn't wither.

Rather, it kept growing further and further as more of them sprouted from the ground.

Upon a closer look, there was a woman figure inside those flowers.

「IT'S ALRAUNE! ZARXIS! MODEGAL BECAME FOOD FOR HER, WHO GROWS BY ABSORBING MIASMA!」

The Dark Knight answered my doubt with a loud voice.

He held the soul orb in his hand.

The soul orb was glowing as it released magical power.

「ARE YOU SCREWING WITH ME!? LIKE HELL THE LIKES OF ALRAUNE CAN STOP MODEGAL!? WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER, DARK KNIGHT!?」

Alraune, born from the blood of a God that got executed in the past, grew through absorbing miasma.

Alas, there was no way a mere flower could defeat Modegal. She might be able to absorb miasma but the density of miasma in this region would kill her instead.

「Have you not realized, Zarxis!? You have already stepped into the barrier Kuna and I made!」

「WHAT!?」

Sure enough, when I looked around, I felt a disturbing presence.

Did the magic barrier also cause that?

But, this region was my turf, here I'm the victor. He shouldn't be able to get the magical power needed to make a magic barrier.

That moment, I noticed.

「YOU, NO WAY?!? THE MAGICAL POWER OF THE SOUL ORB?!?」

「Correct, Zarxis! I created this magic after finding myself trapped in a magic barrier created by Alphos in the past! But this is just an incomplete version made in a hurry with the soul orb!」

When the Dark Knight said so, black roses started growing from the ground except for the place under Modegal's feet.

A sweet aroma filled the entire air.

A few seconds later, the place around me turned into a flower garden.

Alraune was singing in that flower garden, beetle warriors, flocks of fairies, empusas, and toadmen were dancing in this place.

Everyone was dancing with vigorous movements. It seems the flower garden had the effect of invigorating the insects.

My kin on the other hand weakened a lot.

I had never expected that he had this kind of trump card.

「Sorry Zarxis but, let Modegal sleep in this Black Rose Garden!」
