A Demon's Journey

Lennard and Bryon had their respective Emperor Ranked Weapons. However, these weren't the standard Emperor Ranked Weapons. Unlike standard Emperor Ranked Weapons, these weapons weren't formed of some mythical grade metal.

In fact, those weapons were made of standard materials. However, these were very special because these weapons were the Natal Weapons of the two warriors.

Natal Weapons were those weapons that were innately connected to their master. These weapons were made of standard materials and were regularly infused with the owner's Ardor and Spirit. These weapons grew alongside its master.

However, not just anyone could possess a Natal Weapon. There was a strict requirement to obtain one.

Firstly, the owner had to possess very great insight into that particular field. Secondly, they had to reach the King Rank at the least. Thirdly, they had to nourish the weapon with their Spirit and Ardor.

Lennard's Natal Weapon was a Battle Axe named Warped Skeletal Cleaver! This weapon was made of a mixture of a demon's skeletal and Steel Gold Metal.

This weapon possessed numerous abilities, and its primary ability was to absorb the Demonic Ardor and cut apart the Celestial Ardor.

Lennard was sure that the battle would be very different if he possessed his Natal Weapon at that moment. He had been too rash to rush towards the Archangels without his Natal Weapon.

Meanwhile, Bryon's Natal Weapon was a rather standard-looking bow. This bow seemed to be made of very brittle wood. But for some reason, as Bryon lifted this bow, he noticed a crack on the floor.

It must be known that this was the Royal Palace. Even the tile on the floor was made of very rare and dense material. For this bow to crack that tile showed just how heavy it was. This bow was a perfect example of looks were deceiving.

"It seems that no one managed to gain your approval even after all these years. Were you too harsh on my descendants?" With an affectionate look on his face, Bryon remarked.

The bow buzzed in his hands as if to respond negatively in indignation. Meanwhile, Lennard laughed wildly as he swung his Axe.

"Hahaha… You are still as heavy as ever. Let's go and slaughter some of those white crows!" Lennard seemed very excited and planned to rush out to have his rematch against those Archangels.

Bryon glanced at Lennard rather coldly and sternly called out, "Lennard!" This caused Lennard to frown and stare in his father's direction.

"Don't forget that terrifying Demonic Aura we sensed earlier. The Demon Emperor may be nearby. The Royal Palace will be defenseless if we leave it. We need to remain defensive," Bryon coldly ordered.

His argument was sound, but Lennard evidently disliked being instructed what to do. Even though it was his father's command, Lennard protested it indignantly.

"I don't think we should just sit here while the enemy plans to attack us. We should attack their forces and slaughter them as soon as possible!"

Lennard's protest was to be expected. When they reached the age of 600, they retired to the Royal Cemetery and could be regarded as equal in terms of experience. Furthermore, Lennard substantially extended the Glerian Kingdom's boundaries throughout his reign, leading him to conclude that he was a superior leader to his father.

Naturally, this was merely his wishful thinking. If not for Bryon's extraordinary vision, Lennard wouldn't have half the force required to expand the Glerian Kingdom's territory.

Bryon could sense the lack of respect in Lennard's tone. He was usually not bothered by such a tiny thing. But the situation was very dire at this moment. He couldn't allow Lennard to go out at this moment.

With a hardened look, Bryon spoke, "If you want to go out, you will have to pass through me."

Bryon chose this path instead of providing an explanation. He knew that if he relented now, it would lead to massive troubles in the future. Thus, it was better to make Lennard understand the difference between them.

Meanwhile, Lennard had a wide grin on his face as he added, "What a great idea. I always did want to beat you once in my life."

Lennard stepped forward while tightly holding his Battle Axe, an arrogant grin on his face.

"We can't fight here. Let's go outside," As soon as Bryon spoke those words, he vanished from his spot.

Lennard was caught off-guard as he could no longer see Bryon nor sense him. Before long, he saw Bryon, but the situation completely startled him.

Bryon was standing right ahead of him. There was barely a hand's distance between the two.

Bryon suddenly grabbed Lennard's face and flew into the sky at a blinding speed. There was a shadowy aura restraining Lennard's right hand that held his Warped Skeletal Cleaver.

Lennard resisted as he tried to swat away Bryon's arm but was unsuccessful. Soon, the Warped Skeletal Cleaver released a massive Demonic Aura, that shadowy aura that restrained Lennard's right hand.

Lennard moved his right hand and swung his battle axe to slice Bryon's right arm and free himself.

However, Bryon quickly released Lennard's face and vanished from his spot.

Lennard was very startled as he tried to find Bryon but failed to do so. He knew that the earlier situation would be repeated if he didn't do something quickly.

"Nirvana Earth Domain!" Lennard immediately spread his domain around his body. A thick brownish aura spread in the entire area.

This was actually the Earth Aura that boosted Lennard's Elemental Power but also allowed him to conjure Earth Attacks instantly within this entire domain. This meant Lennard could attack any portion of his domain instantly.

If Bryon tried to attack Lennard now, he would be instantly detected and attacked by multiple rocks.

The most effective way to counter a domain was to expand your own. When two domains are expanded in the same space, the more refined one will dominate that space.

Thus, Bryon's best option was to release his own domain. However, for some reason, Bryon didn't choose that option.

In fact, Lennard sensed that Bryon wasn't even in his domain right now. A serious expression appeared on his face as he wondered 'What is he plotting?'

After a few moments of searching for his father, Lennard finally heard sounds of laughter from above him. He noticed Bryon gazing at him with disdain, "You haven't grown at all, my dear son. Did you forget my bow's ability?"

Lennard was initially confused as he heard those words. But he soon realized what his father meant, and his eyes widened in realization.

"After every 10 seconds, the power of my arrow doubles. It has been nearly three minutes since I stretched my arrow. How strongly do you think it is? Can you block it with your domain?"

What Bryon didn't mention was that his Ardor was depleted in accordance with how long he strained his arrow. Furthermore, Bryon's bow could lock onto its target and never miss it, regardless of the target's distance or speed!

This was Bryon's Phantom Ebon Longbow.

Lennard immediately congealed a massive ball of Earth to block that arrow. Bryon had a disdainful look on his face as he released the bowstring.

The bowstring released a thunderous sound as the arrow was let loose. The arrow immediately pierced that massive ball of Earth and reached closed to Lennard's body.

Lennard seemed prepared for this arrow and swung his Battle Axe at the perfect moment to block the arrow. Demonic Ardor was released from the Battle Axe as it tried to cut apart the arrow.

Just as Lennard cut apart that powerful arrow, he felt a blade touching his throat and a cold voice, "You should surrender now. This is your loss."

Bryon had used his Shadow Dagger to infiltrate Lennard's domain while he was busy dealing with that powerful arrow. The battle between the two ended rather quickly, and Lennard was embarrassed to even think he could defeat his father.
