Legacy Of Fire: Chronicles Of The F-ranked Anomaly-Chapter 160: Embodiment Of Chaos

Darius was ready for another fight, and so were his teammates.

"You know you can sit this one out?" he turned to look at Theo and the others, but they had smiles on their faces.

"And let you take the spotlight?" Theo swung his spear, his eye letting off his signature green glow. "No way that is happen, if you’re going, so are we. right guys?!"

"Yeah!"

Michael and Raya roared; they were ready to kill the monster in front of them.

Darius smirked. He knew they weren’t going to back down, but then he needed to take Vertu down before it would cause more trouble for them.

"Alright, Captain, we attack on three!"

Darius unsheathed Ve’xa and Voidweaver, waiting for the right time for him to strike.

"Go!"

The three warriors bolted for the monster; a bright wave of Crimson, Green, Blue, and Gold could be seen heading for Vertu. They were going at an absurd speed, trying to hurl down the monster.

Pryion felt their presence; he sent one last slash for Vertu before jumping back.

"My liege is back!"

Acier joined Pryion, trying to see what he was going to do. "This is the first time I will be seeing him fight like this properly. I don’t know what I am going to expect."

"Dont expect him to do something normal like the other warriors, he is beyond our own thinking frame." Pryion smiled. He could see Darius heading straight for Vertu’s head. "He is the embodiment of chaos, in human form."

Both knights backed off from the fight, allowing Darius and his teammates to do what they were planning on.

"Ve’xa, Rippling Disaster Slash!" Darius sent the first blow; it was strong, sending Vertu back a few feet.

Theo was right behind him, using his spear, and he leaped into the air, aiming for the Vertu’s head too.

"Wind Control: Fifth Form!" His body let off the bright green glow as he got ready to hurl the spear at the monster. "Zerion’s Torpedo!"

Kra-Boom!

The spear roared like a nuke heading for a testing site, heading for Vertu, and in no time, the monster was hit with a blast of clean, powerful wind strong enough to kill anyone standing close.

Rocks and debris flying around, Raya and Michael did their best to avoid everything coming their way, heading for the monster.

Raya unsheathed her sword, looking at the monster as she was getting ready to attack.

"Blue Flame, Roar of the fallen gods!" She let out a powerful roar before sending a slash at the monster.

Taking a clear stance, Michael fixed his body. His eyes let off their golden flare. "Golden Rush: Gattling Gun!"

What followed was a series of powerful shockwaves, targeted at Vertu.

The monster was taking blow after blow from the team; it was all a fixed attack that no one could even imagine anything making it out of.

But when the rubble cleared out, there they saw Vertu standing like the monster he was, with a look in his eyes.

"You think... You can kill me?!"

The monster roared, looking at the warriors. The attacks had taken parts of its body off, and it was not even clear how it was still standing.

"Just like I thought," Darius readied himself for the next wave of attacks from Vertu. He knew that it was far from over, and he knew that the next thing that they would be seeing was something more fierce than before.

{Warning! Vertu is charging an abyssal blast!}

The system gave Darius the alert, and a smile showed on his face, as he was ready for the attack, but then he didn’t know what it was going to be like.

"Fall back!"

He roared, making his teammates take a step back. They weren’t going to be ready for what he was about to do.

Vertu let out a cold roar; the dungeon shook with his mighty roar. Suddenly, the space in front of him began to distort; an attack was being created.

It was a twirling, dark projectile being formed out of nothing but thin air.

"Argon Ne Zul!"

Vertu blasted the powerful attack for Darius and the team, our young warriors’ eyes letting out the powerful crimson glow, were ready for it.

’Activate Phantom Barrage!’

{Phantom Barrage Activated!}

Darius stood there, taking a deep breath before he let out his own assault; he had fused it with enough chaotic energy to match. It was draining, but he wasn’t about to let a monster from the abyss kill him and his teammates.

He began sending deadly telekinetic punches for Vertu, they were strong enough to pierce the soul, and he was sending each one with a powerful precision and speed, not letting a moment waste.

Both attacks collided, causing a powerful shockwave all over the dungeon. Darius was still sending blasts for Vertu; his body was letting out a powerful scream, showing that he was tired and ready to stop, but he wasn’t about to do that.

"Here goes!" Darius roared as he pulled Ve’xa out and bolted for the monster, blasting through the falling ceiling.

Vertu saw him coming, using his spear, and he conjured up a force field. "I am not going to lose to you, child of chaos. I will be—"

Suddenly, the forcefield was broken by a powerful ball of flame. Vertu looked up to see Pryion looking at him.

"Darn knight!"

Vertu had removed his focus from Darius for a second, but the next he felt was a strong, sharp hit to the lower body part.

"You really should focus on the fight!" Darius roared, using his blade to send the monster tumbling back.

Vertu got up, his six tentacle-like arms were ready to rip Darius apart, and he wasn’t going to back down until he was sure that nothing was left of him.

"You aren’t going to live to tell another tale, child of chaos!"

Vertu began slashing the part where Darius stood, trying to cut him down, but our young warrior was ready for him. Blocking all his attacks with a clear and deadly precision, Darius was trying to push the monster back with all his strength, not letting him shake him down.

Their blades were letting out loud, deafening clangs, sending off powerful vibrations all around the dungeon. It was not a fight but a showcase of pure power and grit; neither of them was showing any sign of backing down, trying to cut down the other.

"Give up!" Vertu roared. Suddenly, the floor turned into a dark pool of shadows.

Darius, seeing this, leaped into the air, looking down at Vertu. He let out a loud cry.

{Cries Of The Fallen Sage Activated!}

The blast from the battle cry was undeniably powerful enough to tear the surface of a battleship. Vertu was pinned down by the loud cry, and Vertu was trying his best to get back on his feet to fight back.

But before he could do that, Darius was already down, moving like a shadow, slashing him with every turn he made. He could feel the way Darius wasn’t trying to give him the chance to get a hit on him.

"I am not going to lose to you!" Vertu roared, using his spear, and he managed to stab Darius on the side. A cruel smile slowly appeared on his face as, looked at the warrior. "Got you..."

Darius tried to pull himself out of the spear, but he could feel it sucking up his strength and mana; it was a divine weapon like his.

"Shit, this isn’t good...."

Darius kept trying to pull away, but the more he tried, it got harder and he wasn’t getting the chance to even move out of the way. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

"This is where you die!"

Using another one of his arms, Vertu was about to crush Darius into the ground.

"Die!"

Gboommm!

Vertu smashed the place where Darius stood, but what he heard was a loud clang, and what he saw Pryion was holding back the hit.

"You are fast, I dont know what would have happened to me if you weren’t here."

Darius smiled, his eyes went back to the spear plunged to his side, and he knew standing there was going to be more of a problem.

"HERE WE GO!"

Darius, using Ve’xa, sawed off Vertu’s arm holding the spear, giving him the chance to back away from the monster.

"Argghh!" Vertu growled, looking at the wound, then he looked at Pryion standing in front of him. "When will you fall, knight?!"

"After you!" Pryion gave him a sharp reply, taking a stance before he delivered a powerful axe kick to the beast’s chest, sending it flying back.

Michael, seeing Vertu tumbling towards them, charged up one of his gauntlets and was ready for an attack.

"Brazen Bull Charge!" He roared as he sent Vertu back with another punch; the monster was sent tumbling.

Acier, who had been observing, leaped in with her blade ready to strike,

"Seafury: Current Pierce!" Twirling with her blade mid-air, she landed a clean slash on Vertu, pushing him down into the ground.

Darius stood by the side, watching what was happening and the way everyone was ready to land a hit to take the monster down.

"They aren’t giving up, are they?" He smiled, slowly turning to look at the spear impaled on his side. He closed his eyes as he slowly pulled it out of his body.

The spear was rejecting Darius, but he wasn’t going to let it stay there for long.

"This isn’t the time for this!"

He roared, pulling the spear out; his shoulder was bleeding profusely.

Suddenly, the system screen popped up, and he was ready for the message.

{Energy levels are low!}

{Regeneration blocked!}

{Mana down to the last twenty percent!}

Darius winced in pain, looking at the monster in front of him.

"Twenty percent?" He smiled, picking Ve’xa with one hand. His eyes on Vertu, it wasn’t time to back down. "I can work with that."
