Undying Warlord

Defeating the Death Beatles gang was everything but easy.

How could it be easy to kill 200 Tier-1 Ascenders, and a Tier-1 Ascender with a mighty occupation that could elevate the strength of the already powerful Origin ability Pyro possessed.

Fortunately, Dilan was able to achieve such a feat by voluntarily sacrificing most of his life force in exchange for Mana and an amplified state.

With the use of [Berserk Mana], [Bearer of Pain], and [Bracing Pain] it was possible for Dilan to overwhelm everyone.

But the downside was that the combination of this attack turned his brain into a hot mess.

Dilan was able to hide his exhaustion well, which was a feat in itself owing to the fact that he was barely able to stand on his feet.

His sight was blurred, and he could barely see Melanie, whose expression was filled with fear and desperation, contrary to her earlier thrilled expression.

To think that a single person was able to kill Pyro was already beyond her imagination.

However, killing more than 200 Tier-1 Ascenders single-handedly was insane, to put it simply.

But even if that was the case, Melanie had witnessed everything firsthand.

Right now, she was unable to move, and could only look at Dilan, whose gaze lingered on her._-.

His entire expression clearly told Melanie that Dilan wouldn’t show any mercy to her and that he would kill her at once.

Goosebumps spread over her entire body, and she felt the fear of death that was clearly reflected in her eyes for the first time in years.

Melanie had killed hundreds of innocent people, whether it was before or after the Primordial Ascension.

Since her childhood, she always felt that fear, sadness, and desperation were worthless emotions that made people weak and that she would never let herself feel like this.

However, right now, Melanie was able to feel all the emotions that the people she killed must have felt moments before their death.

At that moment, even Melanie was unable to keep her calm anymore. Despite feeling ecstatic at the sight of blood and death, she was unable to feel exhilarated in any way at the moment.

After all, even Pyro, their leader, who chose the ‘Extraordinary’ ancient path of advancement when becoming a Tier-1 existence, could not stand tall against Dilan’s might.

‘Why…why is this monster suddenly appearing here?!’

Melanie had no idea who Dilan was, let alone what he wanted from them.

It didn’t look like he had accidentally stumbled upon their shelter. Rather, it was almost as if he was well aware of Pyro’s power, and the fact that all of his opponents would be Tier-1 existences.

Dilan had been unfazed at the sight of numerous abilities and simply blocked them off with the help of the weird blueish shield he had been able to manifest.

Afterward, his superior stats had been more than enough to finish off his opponent.

But that was also only feasible after Dilan’s strength had elevated manifolds.

The fight, if one could even call it as such, had ended in no time. Every single trait about Dilan had been more than enough to defeat his opponents.

Yet, Melanie was still alive, while Pyro died due to the beam of compressed mana, which Dilan had fired.

He was slowly approaching her while forcing his body to listen to him. Controlling his body was far more difficult than ever before, even when he had been punctured by the old tree trunk as the Primordial Ascension had occurred.

Blood trickled down the Gray Slayer, reaching Dilan’s hand and the clothes he was wearing before a few drops splattered to the ground.

It was like he turned into the incarnation of the Demon King, or the God of Slaughter.

And upon seeing such an existence approach herself, Melanie’s legs gave in.

There was no sign of her previous imposing attitude, the lust to witness more bloody battles and to hear the desperate cries of humans, who wanted nothing but to keep living.

If any of Death Beatles gang members were to see her current state, they wouldn’t dare to believe that this was the same fearless Melanie they had known for a better part of their life.

They would think that everything was just a dream.

However, the reality was much crueler than any member of the Death Beatles gang could imagine.

All of them, with the sole exception of Melanie, had already succumbed to Dilan’s blade, and she knew that she was currently living the last few minutes of her life.

But even then, her body didn’t want to move. Her eyes got teary the closer Dilan came. Melanie clearly understood what was about to happen.

Despite being aware of this, she was unwilling to die and leave the world just like that.

The Primordial Ascension had happened merely 2 weeks ago. Everything was just starting to get interesting.

Only recently was life starting to become more meaningful and interesting to her. She wanted to keep living, to strive for more strength, and to enjoy her life at the expense of others.

But Dilan’s blade was more than enough to end everything at once.

He was still approaching her with slow steps while trying to regulate his breathing.

Dilan could clearly tell that he was on the verge of a breakdown and that he would have to rest properly right now.

Of all the gang members, only Melanie was still left alive, but she was not much of an hindrance anymore.

Her entire mana had already been used up in her first attack, which used up more than 10 Units of mana at once.

Even if she and the others had been Tier-1 existences, they had leveled up by facing unleveled, or low-leveled humans who they were confident of defeating.

They had only little fighting experience against truly powerful existences, whose stats were far higher than others.

That was another reason for him to be able to overshadow them as the Death Beatles gang had never faced someone like Dilan.

Blinking once, Dilan felt that his focus was deteriorating even faster.

Thus, he pulled back the Gray Slayer in a very slow motion before slashing out.

“Wait!! I have information about foreign races!!”

Dilan’s first thought was to ignore Melanie’s scream and just kill her.

He didn’t have the strength to start bothering about some information that might be useful.

After all, Dilan was pretty sure that his mind wouldn’t be able to process the information in his current state, either way!

However, he still averted the trajectory of his attack. Through this, the Gray Slayer narrowly missed Melanie by a hair’s breadth.

Her heart skipped a beat when she noticed that she was still alive.

Yet, after seeing his unbothered expression, Melanie could barely swallow her saliva as her body began to shiver uncontrollably without her realizing it at first.

“Go on!” Dilan merely said, inserting the vast majority of his remaining strength in just those two words to prevent his voice from sounding shaky.

His gaze never left Melanie, and she was petrified to even move a single inch with Dilan looming over her.

At least, that was what Melanie saw. She didn’t know that Dilan’s vision had grown blurry and he was not even able to see her clearly anymore.

“I will tell you everything, please calm down. Just let me stay alive, and I will tell you everything!”

Dilan didn’t say anything when he heard Melanie’s hurried voice. If an outsider were to see the current situation, one might believe that Dilan was bullying a helpless woman.

But even if that were to be the case, it was not as if Dilan would be bothered about the impression he made on other people.

He didn’t say a single word, which worried Melanie a lot, followed by the sight of Dilan’s grip that tightened around his saber.

She broke out in a sweat before she started to hastily speak.

“Two days ago, a temple filled with intelligent monsters emerged on the Shikan plains!!”
