To the Depth of Abyss

Chapter 250: War of Sin and Virtue (8)

In term of body size, Cinderella was bigger than Ars. But at the time, while Ars standing in front of Cinderella, somehow, Ars looked much bigger, feel like an enormous red winged lizard in front of Cinderella's eyes. 

"You should still be sleeping."

Cinderella realized the threat posed by the enemy in front of him, but he still refused to back down, not with empty hands.

"You should not disturb my sleep."

Soul Saint told that Ars truly represent his Sin and the Support Creature's figure, Greed of Fafnir. A dragon greedy for wealth and power. 

"Now, how should I deal with you?"

Ars snapping his right hand fingers. He who only has one hand shows dominance to Cinderella who has just lost two hands.

It felt like he cut both Cinderella's hand in purpose. So Cinderella will not make fun of him. Although the most striking changes were his mustache and beard.

"Before we started to kill each other, mind if you tell how you lost your left hand?"

It had been two months since Ars had fallen asleep. Two months ago, he faced something that was hidden from the public, which resulted in him losing his left hand.

Responding to that question, Ars snorted. He seemed to be bragging about the results of his fight. A battle that no one but him could win.

"Death. I fought death, and win."

Ars shows a broad, arrogant smile. 

That might sound exaggerated, but judging by a person as strong as him who lost his left hand, and fell asleep for two months - a coma, he's no doubt had fought something that most likely could kill him.

"And it's your turn to face death."

Ars takes out one Sinaga Sword, and pointed the red sword to Cinderella. 

It was Cinderella's first time seeing Sinaga Sword, the red version of Sword of Testament, and at the time he immediately realized, Ars was not just a Sin or Virtue like them, he is also something else that Soul Saint had told about.

"The prophecy... is true."

"Yeah, the prophecy is true, your death too."

Ars launched the red sword right to Cinderella's chest. The sword pierced Cinderella's chest to the ground. 

However, what got pierced was not Cinderella, but a diversion made of ice.

After he got pierced, the ice diversion blew up icy lance; a counterattack. 

Cinderella's attack did not hurt the palace. But Ars' simple attack pierced three floors of the palace. Now Skadi realized why the Black Hunter wanted him to die when he still fell asleep. 

"What happened to her?"

Someone suddenly appeared beside her. 

Skadi was so shocked her heart skipped a beat for a moment. It was not the first time, though. She even felt nostalgic because of it. 

"She got stabbed. She's fine, but..."

Skadi shows Arlene's belly, the part where there was a hole before. 

She was asleep. In her sleep, she was tormented. There was only one thing that could torture Arlene in her sleep, with a problem linked to her scar. 

Ars touched Arlene's belly, while emitting dreadful aura. So scary that Skadi even got scared by it.

Palace of Horus / 

"How did you still alive in that condition?!"

Frida's sworn enemy, Blade, standing in front of them with his right body destroyed. 

Blade pointed his blade to Frida, with bigger killing intent than before. 

Frida's husband, Dimitri, and five of Dimitri's knight member, stands in front of Frida. 

`I won't die before I bring you to death!"

With Blade came to them, it means one thing; The Spear Saint is gone.

They were scared, but their fear was overcome by anger.

They know they can't win, but they also can't lose another loved ones. 

"Frida, run away!"

"I can't!"

"Why?!"

In critical moments like that, Frida argues with her husband instead of run for her life.

"I won't let you go a second time!"

Blade charging forwards. 

"BLADY!"

But he got stopped by certain someone's voice. 

"Blady, we need to retreat! It's Father's order!"

It was Cinderella. He came naked, but he is fine.

"My target is in front of me and you told me to retreat!"

"Yeah! Because -"

Before Cinderella could finish his words, a few projectile weapons rocketing to them, made Cinderella have to create a barrier to protect them. 

"How could those swords blow up?!"

With his eyes, Blade could see the direction of the attacks. But he didn't understand. How did some swords launch and explode like missiles?

"It's our main target!"

Cinderella answer Blade's question. Their main target. 

Actually, they tasked with a few duties from Soul Saint. 

- To fool Troy.

- To negotiate with Shiva. 

- To attack Eria. 

- To kill the sleeping Ars (main priority).

- To kill Frida.

Soul Saint told them; if they can't kill both of the Sin, they should just focus on Ars. But they feel confident and do both.

Unfortunately, Alexander transforms into Dark Evil Dragon, and Jeanne almost killed Blade with her ultimate attack. They were screwed. 

"I'm going to fool him! You focus on "

Before Cinderella could finish his words, Blade pulls him down. Then a big explosion occurs once more. 

Palace of Horus got destroyed for twice with that second attack. 

With all the dust, nothing to see. But Frida could see everything clearly with her eyes. 

Ars in an instant appears in front of the two Virtues. He then hits the two Virtues with a really big hammer. 

"You are half destroyed, but still alive. What are you, an undead?"

Ars hits Hinayan Warhammer right to his enemies, but one of them withstand the hit and weight of Hinayan Warhammer. 

"You're one-handed, but can lift a hammer this heavy. What are you? A God of Hammer?"

"No."

Ars store Hinayan Warhammer, then take out Red Sky Spear. 

"I am the God of Thunder."

He cast Red Judgement and send the attack right into the position of his enemies. 

Palace of Horus got destroyed thrice. Ars really didn't give his enemy a chance, and so the owner of the Palace and her knights.

In the ash mass, two individuals slid out of the scene.

Cinderella flew off the killing zone by carrying Blade. 

Cinderella did not want to look back. But Blade, with his blood still hot, kept looking back at the man with dragon-red eyes.

"Hey, stop! Put me down!"

"What are you doing?!"

Blade for no apparent reason escapes from Cinderella's grip. He descended with a fiery, fighting spirit.

It turned out that in front of him stood a one-handed man with a sword, just like him. 

"I see that you also have cool eyes."

Ars praised his enemy before they fought.

One Sin versus one Virtue. Both are Sword user. One most likely has strong Arts, but one is undefeated in a one-on-one battle and have really strong body. 

In before, Cinderella did not want to put them at high risk. But now he wanted to bet on Blade's victory.

"I assume that you don't have an ultimate one shot attack even though you are holding the Sword of Testament."

Blade immediately realized that Ars holding the Sword of Testament. 

"Nah, I ain't that old man. I don't even know what kind of ultimate one shot attack you were talking about."

Ars let go of his sword. The sword float in front of him. 

That show was truly like the Sword Saint skill when he is serious about fighting. 

Because of that, Blade didn't waste his time and shot straight forward. He was torn apart by dozens of swords.
