Level Up Legacy

Chapter 1098 Mortals Can Fight

Her hateful father was sent flying by the knee, rolling on the ground far into the distance. As her brother landed on the ground, the two locked gazes. Tears fell from her eyes as Luna saw the little brother she always watched from her window, having changed so much.

"I'm sorry for being late to do that," said Dorian as he crouched on the ground, patting her hair with sadness. "I have not been a good brother, but now I know how much you have suffered because of him. I will protect you from now on."

Luna could not stop crying, as she saw her mother's kindness in his eyes. Dorian seemed different: more mature, calm, and aged. His hair has turned gray, but his muscles were brimming with strength. As for his eyes, honey-brown color like her mother, they showed nothing but kindness toward her.

"I thought that you hated me," said Luna as she bit her lips, struggling to break free from her cuffs. Dorian looked at her in surprise, then guilt, and then turned toward the incoming Freud. Her captor did not plan on letting them reunite in peace.

"Stormblade Family is filled with nuances!" shouted Freud as he threw a punch at Dorian, whose face turned from kindness to apathy. Then, as the giant arm inflated and sought to strike him, he raised his palm with ease.

"Dodge!" shouted Luna with panic, having seen how powerful her uncle can be. However, Dorian received the attack with an open palm. An unusual scene occurred, as the punch bounced off his arm like a bullet.

Freud staggered backward, staring at Dorian with shock. He stood as steady as a mountain and the one who was harmed was Freud. His hand was bruised from the attack, as if he struck an immovable fortress.

"You cannot defeat me anymore, uncle," said Dorian with a determined face. "Anything that you do to me will be repaid with equal force!"

Luna stared in shock, unable to comprehend what happened. She sat from the ground, her hands cuffed behind her back, as she stared at her little brother shielding her. It was the first time, other than her mother, that someone from her family seemed to care about her.

"Is that so?" asked the muscles man as he shook his bruised hand, before grinning at Dorian. "That seems to be the same for those you attack. Your nose and mouth began bleeding after you kicked my brother earlier."

"Every power has its drawbacks," said Dorian as he took his stance again. "I cannot harm others without expecting to be harmed."

"That explains why your cheek has bleeding like mine since earlier," said Freud as he touched his face, grimacing at the pain. "However, what can you do other than controlling karma and stopping me?"

"I can protect my older sister," said Dorian with determination. "I was too young when our mother died, and I never got to see my sister. However, now, I understand everything that she has gone through. I will… not forgive the two of you."

"I have a goddess backing me!" shouted Freud as he spread his arms, laughing manically. Luna glanced at the goddess above and saw her creating more arrows, as her patience has worn thin. "Bless me, goddess of the moon!"

Whoosh!

An arrow tore across the battlefield before piercing Freud in the back. Dorian and Luna were shocked, seeing him stagger forward before falling to the ground. However, a surge of divine energy exploded from his body.

Moonlight exploded from Freud, who was face-forward on the ground. Then, he gripped the black soil which has burned because of the earlier attacks. Freud began shrinking in size as he raised his head, looking at the moon with a grin.

"Thank you, my goddess! This is the power that I shall use to give you the sacrifice!" shouted Freud as the divine aura leaked from his body, making Dorian and Luna suffocate.

Boom!

Freud stomped on the ground, rushing toward Dorian like a meteor. Before he could block his attack, Dorian was struck in the chest and sent flying. As he cut an arch through the air, Freud rushed to stab Luna.

A red figure appeared between the two, with fur that glistered with blood. Luna saw him summon an ice wall to block the crazed hunter, but the latter tore through it with ease. Instead of running, the figure remained in place to protected her.

"Although I do not know you, Dorian seems hellbent on protecting you!" said the tall Waiga with a frown as he unsheathed his sword. "I cannot defeat him, but I can break these cuffs so you would run away!"

As he declared that, the Waiga tapped her cuffs with his sword. They froze in an instant and shattered, granting Luna her freedom. She could not understand who this person was, but he rushed toward Freud before she could know who.

Clang!

lightsΝοvel.cοm The red sword clashed against the fist of divine energy. Luna was frozen in place as a feline appeared, grabbed her, and began running faster than she could react. Her mind was a mess as the feline announced his identity.

"My name is Whisker, a friend of your brother!" said the giant cat as his paws carried her over his shoulder. "Let us protect you until he arrives!"

"Who are you talking about?" asked Luna in her confusion, as she spotted her brother rushing back toward the battlefield. "Please, tell my brother to run. He cannot defeat a goddess and Freud!"

"None of us can defeat them, but our king can!" answered Whisker with a grin as he ran faster than sound. "As long as they don't have your blood, we can rest assured that our king will defeat her!"

Luna allowed him to carry her away as she stared at the battlefield. The red Waiga was getting injured with every exchange, before her brother rushed to protect him. The two fought in harmony, but they couldn't push Freud back after he was strengthened.

"We meet again, feline," said a voice from above them, and Whisker looked at the sky to see the goddess chasing after them. "Our previous game of chase was interrupted, so how about we take another round?"

Whisker tried to run faster, but a strange mark appeared over his back. Countless arrows rained down on them as the feline tried to dodge them at the last second, ensuring the two of them were unharmed. However, as they ran in a maze of arrows and destruction, their routes became scarcer.

Luna felt like a burden, and as she was about to tell him to abandon her, Whisker suddenly began growing. He turned into a giant beast with long fur as his speed exploded. The arrows could no longer reach him as he took a direct route toward the exit of the valley.

After the arrows stopped raining on them, they turned toward the mountain in the distance. Each arrow blasted the mountain around the passage, making boulders crumble and block the exit.

"Seraphine!" shouted the feline beast in a hoarse voice as it threw Luna in the air. She felt the howling wind rage around her as she flew toward a different direction, where a scarf of blood caught her in time.

As for the feline beast, it turned toward the goddess chasing it. After another howl of rage, it rushed toward the goddess, seeking to get close to her while avoiding her arrows.

Luna could no longer understand what was happening, as she felt that her life flashed before her eyes several times in just a few minutes. A woman stood beside her atop the blood scarf, seemingly integrated with it. Luna raised her eyes with confusion toward her.

"If we lose this fight," began the woman with horns without looking at her, "you must kill yourself before they turn you into a Moon Offering. If your blood is given as a gift to the goddess, our king might not be able to stop her anymore."

"Is this the reason you are protecting me? Because I might strengthen the enemy?" asked Luna without being offended. The demon turned toward her with a grin. "What is that look?"

"Dorian doesn't know about the Moon Offering," said the demoness as she lowered her gaze at Luna. "He is protecting his sister, that is all. We just don't want to lose this fight against her."

"Then, why are you not helping them?" asked Luna with embarrassment that turned to worry when she saw her brother fighting the empowered Freud. "I can tell that your friends are not winning!"

"My friends are alive because I exhausted everything to protect them," said the woman as she looked back at them. "However, you don't need to worry. Lightning shall strike soon."

As she finished her words, lightning flashed in the sky. Whisker was still trying to get close to the goddess, who was busy firing arrows at him. However, a figure appeared behind her at some point, with crackling white lightning and a long spear in hand.

"Mortals can fight too, Artemis," said Ilia Perli with lightning crackling around him. His spear aimed at her back and before she could answer him, he released his lightning. "You underestimated us too much!"

Boom!

Lightning exploded as it passed through the goddess, shooting her down toward the ground. Artemis slammed to the ground with crackling lightning seeking to destroy her, creating a deep crater into the earth.

Luna stared at the scene with shock, unable to believe that this group has managed to bring a goddess to the ground. The demoness beside her chuckled as she stared at the scene, her excited features illuminated by the lightning.

"It has been a long time since I felt this excited!"
