Dancing on the golden ashes-Chapter 190: The Difference in Power

The ground trembled again, as though the earth itself was aware of the impending clash. The massive pressure of the approaching creature overtook them, and every step seemed to shake their foundations. The force of the enemy could be felt in the very soil beneath their feet, pushing against their resolve. Some even felt their knees buckle under the weight, but none of them gave in.

Perhaps it was because they trusted that Gaon would return and bring an end to the battle. Perhaps it was because they had grown, each in their own way, and were now ready for this moment—this moment where they would prove themselves. Together, they were stronger than the sum of their parts, and no matter how strong the beast or how terrifying the odds, they would not bend. They would endure. They would fight.

Eun-woo stepped out of the city, his footsteps firm and resolute. Behind him, the other six demon commanders followed, their faces set with determination. Seong-hoon was already rushing to join them, his heart burning with resolve.

Big sis, you’ve always protected me, even saved me from death, but now... now it’s my turn to fight. I won’t be cannon fodder this time. I’ll take that monster down myself. Just you wait, you won’t need to fight in this battle. We’ll handle it—every one of us. If we can’t protect you, then what’s the point of being demon commanders? We should just die and give up on life. We’re not worthy of you, not worthy of the way you’ve given everything for us. But I know, once you wake up, this place will be the same as before. We’ll celebrate together. We’ll make sure of it.

With that resolve in his heart, Seong-hoon joined the group, and together, the seven demon commanders and Malrang stood tall. The weight of their mission was felt by every person on the defensive wall as they watched the group move into position. To them, these figures were no longer just soldiers—they were legends, their names and their sacrifices etched into the hearts of everyone who would live to see this day.

The monster’s roar echoed across the landscape, a deafening sound that whipped through the air like a force of nature. The ground trembled beneath its power, and the earth seemed to groan in response. The time for battle had arrived.

The creature’s roar reverberated through the skies, and with it, the tension in the air thickened. The ground shook with each step it took, a force of nature that would test every bit of strength the defenders had.

The battle was now just around the corner, and the fate of Luminara rested in the hands of those brave enough to face the beast. But with every step they took, they knew: they would stand together. No matter what.

The wind howled and swept over the battlefield, the gusts carrying with them an oppressive force, but Eun-woo stood firm. As he raised his shield, it expanded, growing to an enormous twenty meters tall and wide, casting a protective barrier over the entire group. The winds that could uproot trees now swirled harmlessly around the impenetrable shield, the shimmering moonlight reflecting off of it, creating an ethereal glow that bathed the area in silver.

"Hold on!" Eun-woo shouted, his voice steady, unwavering. The others gathered behind him, each one drawing strength from his presence. With each step he took forward, his shield radiated with moonlight, its power becoming a beacon that drew the massive creature’s attention. The beast’s face twisted in disgust and hatred at the sight, its features resembling a grotesque parody of a human, distorted and horrific—like something ripped from a nightmare.

"Push with me, brothers!" Eun-woo’s command rang out, filled with the weight of leadership. The men of the group gritted their teeth and surged forward, moving in unison. But the monster, in a primal response, picked up a massive rock and hurled it directly at Eun-woo. With the speed and ferocity of the creature’s anger, it seemed like the rock would crush them all.

Seong-hoon was quick to react, his dragon’s aura surging around him. With a roar, his dragon sword grew in size, a weapon now infused with raw power. He slashed through the air, meeting the incoming rock head-on. The impact was thunderous, and the rock shattered into hundreds of pieces, freezing as it broke apart. The force of the strike sent the fragments scattering, and Seong-hoon stood tall, unshaken.

"Attack!" Seong-hoon roared, his voice echoing with battle fury. At his command, the cannons fired, their mighty blasts lighting up the dark sky like fireworks. The air was filled with a deafening roar as the cannons connected with the beast. The shots made impact, but despite their power, the monster only flinched slightly. It wasn’t enough to injure it, and it was clear from the beast’s reaction that this was nothing more than a nuisance.

The beast’s fury was palpable as the ground trembled beneath its feet. Its mouth opened wide, revealing a brilliant, blinding light that began to gather in its maw. The energy concentrated, and the entire world seemed to shift with the power it was about to unleash.

Eun-woo and the others felt a chill crawl down their spines. The light from the creature’s mouth flared brighter, casting the world into darkness. Fear gripped their hearts for a split second. They activated their strongest defenses in unison, stacking them on top of Eun-woo’s shield in an attempt to fortify the last line of defense. They knew the full force of the beast’s attack was coming, and they had no choice but to face it head-on.

The beam shot out, a blinding torrent of light that tore through the air, cutting through the space between them in an instant. It collided with Eun-woo’s shield with a deafening roar, the force of it shaking the ground and sending tremors through their bodies. For a moment, the world seemed to turn completely black, the overwhelming power of the beam consuming everything in its path.
