The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order Chapter 2409 Let me in
Previously on The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order...
The total number of Blutlinie barely reached three hundred, yet almost a third among them held the rank of ArchDeities. At their helm stood a young woman whose features cut sharp and elegant, her aura so vast it forced space-time to twist and shudder nearby.
"Mirena!"
Airi's fists tightened as she spotted the head of the enemy group. Right then, full comprehension hit her like a storm.
It was all a setup—an ambush from the start.
Rather than driving the fight straight to the heart of the Ocean of the Blood Sun for maximum devastation from their strikes, their foes had cleverly herded them into this spot—buried deep in hostile lands—battered and drained from endless fighting. It was only now that the real enemy army emerged into view.
Airi made herself take a deep breath.
"Stay calm," she started, keeping her tone even amid the chaos. "We still hold the edge in num-"
Her words got cut off short.
The horde of blood hands and spears that had been tormenting their ranks vanished in a blink, giving way to focused blasts of blood energy—each streaking at horrifying velocity and packed with devastating force.
Even before the Aztorus Kingdom's Blutlinie launched their assault, cries of agony ripped through the Kalous Kingdom's troops. Those blood energy rays sliced straight through Prima Deities' forms, hitting vital spots that shattered their stability and threw them into disarray. They plummeted one after another into the crimson sea beneath. "Kill them all!"
Mirena's command sliced through the air, fierce and authoritative, while a broad grin
lit up her features. She led the charge alongside the other Blutlinie from the Aztorus Kingdom, surging ahead with unstoppable momentum.
The Prima Deities and ArchDeities from the Kalous Kingdom charged to confront them. Despite their superior numbers, fatigue and wounds plagued them, whereas the Aztorus warriors arrived fresh and at full strength.
Backed by the unyielding barrage of blood energy rays, the clash quickly turned into brutal, lopsided slaughter.
Mirena herself darted straight at Airi.
In her motion, a pale, creamy glow enveloped her arms. Her hand smashed directly into Airi's blade, unleashing a ferocious blast that ripped apart the nearby void.
At once, the corrosive force lurking in Airi's sword rushed out, seeking to dissolve Mirena's hand upon impact. But the luminous white energy sheathing Mirena's limb held a cleansing purity so potent and pure that it utterly countered the Ancestor Power in Airi's sword.
Their gazes met and held.
Each represented a perfect opposite—icy, mighty, and unyielding. The murderous fire in their stares revealed this wasn't their initial showdown.
Meanwhile, Hades held back from aiding Mirena. He linked up with Satan instead, as both shifted their full attention to Kantun.
The dinosaur fighter slipped behind the Royal Blutlinie right when Kantun tried to crush Satan's throat. Hades raked with his talons, shredding skin and muscle while unleashing torrents of blood that poured down into the waves below.
"Arghhh, you scum!"
Kantun bellowed in agony and wrath. Though cornered, he refused to pull back. He whipped his huge frame around, flinging Satan aside before
lunging instantly at Hades.
The dino warrior's metal wings clamped together, creating a barrier that barely stopped the attack. Still, the force hurled Hades spinning through the sky, his frame shaking from the jolt.
"BOOM!"
"BOOM!"
"BOOM!"
"BOOM!"
While Hades struggled to steady himself, Kantun gritted his jaws as a series of fire bursts erupted against his rear. Every blast brought flames hot enough to burn through body and spirit alike.
"Damn it!"
Kantun howled in fury, spinning once more and clapping his palms with full might to unleash a blast that scattered the fire orbs and shoved Satan away.
But the instant he finished, Hades plunged at him again, talons targeting his skull.
Kantun just managed to fend off the hit. Gaping gashes tore open on his limbs, crimson spilling everywhere. It grew obvious he couldn't hold out long against the pair. If the fight dragged on, peril loomed large.
"Sister!"
Kantun bellowed at the top of his lungs.
Airi's brow furrowed right away. She grasped the grim turn of events. Hopes for winning had vanished entirely. Yet pulling back now, after such heavy losses, spelled disaster. Accusations would fly for rushing the Ocean of the Blood Sun assault and marching her army into this blatant snare.
"ARGHHH!"
A perishing ArchDeity's wail boomed over the field,
jolting Airi from her doubts.
Every second of delay made it worse.
Channeling her full might, Airi delivered a mighty slash that tumbled Mirena through the void. Then her cry rang out
over the chaos:
"Retreat now!"
Following her order, she, Kantun, and the surviving Blutlinie
poured every ounce of strength into fleeing. Survival arts flared to life in sequence, boosting their pace dramatically as they bolted from the Ocean of the Blood Sun.
Mirena swiftly steadied her form. Her face hardened to frost as she tracked Airi's withdrawal.
Killing urge burned within her.
Still, with the foes locked on getaway, pursuit promised to be a tough chase.
"I could lend you my power."
Suddenly, the Blood King's words resounded in Mirena's thoughts. "Just let me in, and I will raise your energy and vitality exponentially."
Letting a near-stranger route their strength through her ought to seem impossible. But those words struck a chord deep inside, fueling her craving for a crushing victory.
Without a second thought, Mirena agreed with a nod.
In a flash, golden-scarlet might burst from the Ocean of the Blood Sun and linked right to her. Mirena's eyes bulged as her strength skyrocketed.
A fierce, toothy smirk stretched over her lips as she rocketed after
Airi, her velocity so immense it cracked the atmosphere in her wake.
Airi felt the abrupt power spike and looked over her shoulder. Terror flickered in her stare upon seeing Mirena gaining fast.
She drove herself to the brink, but as the blood rays zeroed in on her, getaway grew tougher by the moment.
Right when the coast edged into Airi's view—
Mirena overtook her.
With a brutal leer, Mirena struck with force enough to crack the heavens.
