Chapter 370: Final Destination
The group in front of the 90th-floor door, affected by the solemn atmosphere, prepared for the incoming battle. Hal and his knights focused on communicating with their dragons. Since they had to ascend the Tower quickly, the knights and the dragons had already gotten familiar with each others abilities. After the Dragon-Knight Order had evolved, it hadnt had the time to familiarize itself with its new abilities. As they had ascended the Tower, the knights had gotten acquainted with the changes and their respective dragons.
Suddenly, Hal mounted his roaring Dark Dragon. When he caressed the dragons neck, it opened its huge wings and began flying. The rest of the dragons and their knights followed.
Go Hyung-Chul exclaimed, Wow, is that a new skill too? They couldnt have had the time to practice, yet theyre so great at it.
The Dragon-Knight Order flew in formation. The knights were clearly talented dragon riders.Fiind updated novels at novelhall.com
The dragon knights were trying different formations when Hal and Dark suddenly stopped. Go Hyung-Chul wondered, What are they trying to do?
... Gi-Gyu watched for a while before his lips curled up. He could feel what Hal was about to do.
-Grandmaster.
Gi-Gyu felt Hals eyes on him from high up in the sky.
Kwerrrrrk! Suddenly, Dark roared louder than it had ever roared before.
...! Go Hyung-Chul, and the rest looked up at the sky in surprise. Darks roar was surprising, but what had really shocked them was the change in airflow around them. Dark quickly shot a dark gray light beam from its mouth.
Kaboom!
The dark gray light crossed the 89th floor as if it was ready to shred everything on its way. It was seemingly also signaling the rest of the dragons.
Kwerrrrk! The other dragons began roaring as well.
Go Hyung-Chul whispered, Breath
The dragons were extinct creatures considered one of the highest-level monsters. Breath was their unique ability, which was said to be powerful enough to destroy the world. And at this very moment, Darks Breath was falling from the sky.
Kabooooom!
The other dragons followed suit, shooting their Breath attacks from high above.
Fuck! Go Hyung-Chul swore. It looked like the entire 89th floor would be pulverized. Dust and rock fragments flew everywhere.
That really is Breath Go Hyung-Chul whispered in awe. The legend was true.
***
Ackkkkk! Uranus screamed.
Lou wondered, Has he lost his mind completely?
Uranus had seemingly lost his sanity. Was it because he had been trapped inside Chaos for too long? Or did Kronos do something to Uranus while pretending to conciliate him? Whatever the reason, Uranus could no longer speak the human tongue and was currently acting like a beast.
Boom!
The only thing left inside Uranus was his desire to destroy. He was so big that a single punch from him shook the entire Gehenna. His fist was enveloped in Chaos energy, and his every swing made the Chaos energy saturating Gehenna jolt.
Ackkkk! Uranuss punch, filled with Chaos, headed toward Lou. Lou, in his nine-headed dragon form, dodged by moving his necks. However, that turned out to be unnecessary, as a huge semi-transparent barrier appeared in front of him. One of Lous nine heads looked up into the sky.
-Ill help as best as I can.
El, who had spent a lot of her energy breaking Uranus seal, looked down at him while maintaining this barrier. She was almost completely drained and wouldnt recover completely anytime soon. Therefore, she couldnt actively participate in this battle, but there was no need, as her specialty was defense.
-Thanks.
Lou thanked her telepathically. She was best when defending from behind rather than fighting at the front. A long time ago, during a war between Els world and hell, Lou used to feel that El was the most frustrating enemy. She was an excellent fighter, who had killed countless demons, but she always remained in the back, supporting the angels at the frontline.
Later, when they had met in Gehenna and fought together, Lou felt thankful that El was on his side.
He was certain that the battle on the 90th floor couldnt be over yet. Since ancient times, there had been certain conditions that needed fulfilling. The battle on the 90th floor was just a preparation to complete these conditions.
Lou El Gi-Gyu could feel their emotions. After gaining their memories, his connection to them had returned even though they were still in a special dimension called Gehenna. Of course, he still couldnt communicate with them, but knowing they were okay helped.
And Sung-Hoon too. Gi-Gyu also knew what was happening on Earth thanks to Sung-Hoons message.
-Were waiting, Master!
Brun greeted Gi-Gyu. They werent always connected, but he could talk to her occasionally. According to her, something huge was happening on Earth too. Sung-Hoon had asked Eden for help, and most Korean citizens had evacuated to Eden. Korea, now mostly empty, was filled with soldiers.
Its almost over, muttered Gi-Gyu. Soon, all the conditions would be met. And when that happens, well climb to the 90th floor.
Gi-Gyu planned on participating in the final battle. Until then, he would save his energy.
All his questions were answered one by one, but one thing still confused him.
Soo-Jung Gi-Gyu was still skeptical about Soo-Jung, code name Lucifer. Her identity was still a huge mystery. He had found some clues in Lou and Els memories, but nothing was clear.
But Im sure shes probably just part of this game too. Gi-Gyu decided. The battle that would decide the fate of this world would happen soon, and there was no way Soo-Jung wasnt a part of it.
Until then, I pray she protects my family. Gi-Gyu trusted that Soo-Jung would keep his family safe. Not long ago, she had sent a message asking for his help. But instead of heading out to rescue her, he had put everything in motion, as the message told him Kronos was in the Tower.
Gi-Gyu suspected Soo-Jung had an ulterior motive, but this didnt matter.
Im certain it has nothing to do with my familys safety. Gi-Gyu believed that Soo-Jung would protect them no matter what. His trust came from the clues he had found in Lou and Els memories.
Haa Im still worried, Tae-Shik muttered as he walked toward Gi-Gyu.
Why? Gi-Gyu felt comfortable with only a few people, and Tae-Shik was one of them.
I thought I learned a lot and gained even more power to fix many of the problems, butTae-Shik gazed at Gi-Gyu seriouslyit is clear that it was all for nothing. Im beginning to think we never mattered in the grand scheme of things. The fate of this world depends on just a few crucial figures, with you being one of them.
Hahaha. Gi-Gyu burst into laughter.
Why are you laughing? Tae-Shik looked at him in confusion.
Turning serious, Gi-Gyu asked, Is that really what you think?
When Tae-Shik didnt reply, Gi-Gyu shook his head and continued, Everyone in the world, including you, is important.
...?
Turning to look at the door to the 90th floor, Gi-Gyu added, After all, you made sure I side with humans.
Perhaps Gi-Gyu sounded arrogant, but Tae-Shik couldnt deny the truth. He replied, Youre right, Gi-Gyu.
Suddenly, Gi-Gyus mood changed. Hyung, you must survive.
What?
Gi-Gyu grinned and replied, If I dont win this fight, I cant revive you if you die.
What are you talking about?! Tae-Shik yelled. Suddenly, an unpleasant noise rang.
Creak.
Everyone turned toward the sound.
Its opening now, Gi-Gyu announced.
The door to the 90th floor was opening on its own. Taking a step toward it, Gi-Gyu added, The final battle is about to begin.
