Chapter 397 - Escape From Hell-part One-
Alfonso felt freedom for the first time in this life.
Alfonso moved his hand, his legs, his neck…
"Everything feels so natural" He thought.
"Like when I was still in my early twenties~"
Alfonso didn't know how, but he felt that the flow of time was… as his grasp.
"This can't be happening!" Though Amadeus.
He exploded de death soul aura in him.
"PUNNY INSECT! YOU SHALL DIE BY MY SWORD!"
Amadeus moved faster than ever, injuring his own legs and wings.
However, he didn't care anymore.
"DIE FOR ME!"
He could only move forward.
Alfonso looked at the desperate face of Amadeus.
"…"
For a second, he saw his own silhouette overlapping Amadeus.
"So this is the view of the strong…" Though Alfonso.
Although Amadeus was indeed moving faster, due to Alfonso's current state, he was moving…
Normally, as everyone else do.
So, right now, Amadeus was like a man 100 meters away from you trying to hit you with his punch.
"I just need to move a little further away"
Alfonso did so and evaded the attack of Amadeus.
However, he didn't dodge too far away, so he could feel the strength in Amadeus's punch.
A small trace of blood appeared on Alfonso's cheek.
"So my soul barrier can only protect me so far… if that hit got me, It could kill me in an instant" Thought Alfonso.

Despite everything, Alfonso's growth could be said that only focused on his perception of things, however, his body was still the same, a normal human being.
Alfonso moved as he reached the back of Amadeus in no time!
"[Time bomb]"
Alfonso's hand tapped the back of Amadeus and he quickly left/
*PUM*!
The back of Amadeus exploded while traces of time soul aura left black marks on the body of Amadeus.
"AHHH!" Amadeus shouted in agony.
But, he didn't have time to rest…
As soon as Amadeus looked up, he saw Alfonso grabbing his face with his hand.
"Wait-"
"[Time bomb]"
*PUM*
Amadeus bled while he fell to the ground, dropping his blade.
Amadeus lost consciousness while he looked dejected at the green eyes of Alfonso.
Alfonso walked towards Amadeus and grabbed the sword.
The red gas ran towards Alfonso's body, and his soul aura soar once more.
"Although it doesn't help my concept anymore, it can still replenish my time aura" Thought Alfonso.
Alfonso absorbed all the red gas from the sword.
When the sword stopped giving gas, it broke in two.
"A counterfeit…" Though Alfonso.
Alfonso relaxed and the power of time disappeared as well.
"My control has increased as well"
Alfonso took a few seconds to adjust to the normal flow of time.
"Carmine"
He walked towards Carmine and carry her in his arms.
"Let's go"
He walked towards the inner side of the cave.
.................................…..
*BAM*
*BAM*
*BAM*
Explosion after explosion could be heard at the end of the cave.
Alfonso, who was just arriving, felt the intense aura of death in the air.
"More like aura, it's almost liquefied, I can't believe someone's soul aura could be… like this" Said Alfonso.
"It's because they are both at the border of the king level"
Alfonso followed the sound of the voice.
"Carmine, when did you wake up?"
"Just now" Said Carmine.
"How do you know about the king level?"
"Don't forget that we were among the living in the era of the great war, I know the system power of Leitol, Greycastle, and Oceandis" Said Carmine.
"Aren't they all the same?" Asked Alfonso.
"For Leitol and Greycastle yes, as for Godforsaken, we use a soul system, since we don't have champions"
"As for Oceandis… as far as I remember, they used something called stellar system, but I am not so sure about it"
"Stellar? You mean the stars?" Asked Alfonso.
"Oh? I am surprised that you know about stars, as far as I knew, Leitol didn't have deep knowledge in the study of stars"
"Well, we don't actually, I am just curious, that's all" Said Alfonso.
"Anyway, going back on topic, although I said the ultimate state of the king level, my sister could kill an emperor level champion as easy as flipping her hand, in the world of the living, that's it" Said Carmine.
"Why is that?"
"We , from Godforsaken use our own very souls as material for refining so it's purer by each reincarnation, so, our bodies are covered constantly with the aura of life, that's also the reason why we look so young despite being so old, our bodies never decay" Said Carmine.
"Life force… one of the four forbidden auras…" Said Alfonso.
"I don't need to explain you, why did become forbidden, right?" Said Carmine.
"Because of the war of the gods?"
"Exactly"
"…"
Alfonso suddenly had a thought.
"Say Carmine"
"Yes?"
"The people of Oceanis shouldn't happen to study the death soul aura, right?"
"Wow, I am impressed that you know, indeed, the people of Oceanis wanted to have control over death since their first empress, but as far as I know, although they can control death soul aura until some point, they have to be, actually death, to fully control it" Said Carmine.
"…" Alfonso didn't answer.
"Time…"
"Life…"
"Death…"
"Then, there is only one remaining…" Though Alfonso.
"Space…"
A chill ran through Alfonso's back.
"I hope I am just overthinking things…"
........................................
Back on Leitol, Fernando and Diana were sitting facing each other.
"Did you feel it?" Asked Fernando.
"I sure did, it's coming from the heroic city" Said Diana.
"I have a really bad feeling about this…" Said Fernando.
"Have Lucy told you something?" Asked Diana.
"It seems that something is blocking her visions" Said Fernando.
"Are you sure that she isn't just lying?"
"There would be no reason to, as long as she can remain in her neutral stance, there is no reason for me or her to enter in conflict"
"Tsk! This is troublesome" Said Diana.
"That explosion of power, and the sudden disappearance of it…" Though Fernando
"I really want to go see it! There is an interesting fight there!" Said Diana.
"If any of us go, it will be troublesome"
"Don't worry, brother"
A voice came from the door of the throne.
Fernando didn't turn because he knew who was there.
"I trust that you already sent your spiders there, yes?"
The person on the door smiled and bowed towards Fernando.
"Brother is as wise as ever"
