Chapter Eighty-Three: The Destroyer Returns

"Hmph......" The corners of Alfred's mouth showed a sneer, although the smoke and dust had not yet dissipated, but Alfred had almost confirmed Regner's death, although the soul had not yet entered the Holy Domain, but as an assassin who had been cultivated by the empire for so many years, if he wanted to create some opportunities for his comrades, then no one could escape. Therefore, Alfred believed that no matter how strong Regna was, the blow just now would be enough to seriously wound him and dying.

As for the death or life of the soul, that was not what Alfred needed to care about, the shadow magic practiced by the assassin had countless ways to escape death, and that moment might have hurt the soul, but Alfred didn't think that he would die like this, and even if he did die, it would not be a big loss for the Empire. Most of the Assassins represented the legacy of the previous king, Ralvin, but now that the king of the empire was His Majesty Alexander, Alfred did not want the monarch he was following to live in the shadow of a dead man, even if that dead man was the last one he followed.

However, Alfred's smile froze before he could retract his thoughts, and he looked down in disbelief to see a pitch-black blade poking out of his chest, blood dripping down the blade.

"Surprised?" Regner drew his sword in his right hand, his left hand resting on Alfred's shoulder, floating in mid-air with the power of the old Prime Minister's flying arts. And now, Alfred, who had been mortally wounded, apparently could no longer maintain the stability of his flying skills, and he staggered and began to fall. Regner, on the other hand, foresaw this and kicked Alfred in the back of the heart, and then he jumped lightly with the last force and landed smoothly on the ground.

"You...... It's impossible ......" Alfred lay on the ground with a look of disbelief on his face, his face was pale, and he was clearly dying of a broken heart.

"I can't just be in the daytime?" Ragner said as he suddenly flashed from Alfred's feet to Alfred's head, he bent down, looked at Alfred's face upside down, and asked in a mocking tone, "Really?"

"You ......" Alfred's eyes widened, and he seemed to want to scold Regner for something, but the rapid loss of life force left him no longer with the strength to speak. The cunning and cunning old prime minister in the eyes of hundreds of officials convulsed a few times in the end, and then he completely stopped moving.

"It's boring. Regner straightened up and muttered.

"Goodbye!" Alfred's voice sounded again, and before Regner could react, a shockwave of light energy hit Regner's chest directly, and the energy wave pushed Regner to fly diagonally upward, but in the blink of an eye, Ragner crashed through the walls of three or four tall buildings one after another under the impetus of the shockwave, and disappeared into the distance of the sky.

"Alfred, how are you?" The series of battles actually took place in just ten seconds, and at this time, Alexander, who had fought against Regner, had just put away his two-handed sword and began to check the life and death of the soul bombarded by the light sword.

"Ahem...... I shouldn't be able to die. Alfred coughed up two more mouthfuls of blood, and he urged the last of his mental power to summon a small, delicately packaged metal box from his mental space, and Alfred anxiously fiddled with the small box, trying to proofread the combination lock on the box. In fact, this box can be opened directly through Alfred's mental imprint, but he is seriously injured and dying, and he has just released a powerful blow to Regner, he no longer has the energy to mobilize his mental power.

"Hmph, uh-huh~" Ineriis sat on the execution table, smiling at the few people in front of her, and even leisurely hummed a folk tune that she had learned at the Academy of Magic. Although Regner was nowhere to be found, Inenliese did not seem to be in the slightest anxious about it, because she believed that the man would not be defeated so easily. And, when she was hit by the blaster of light just now, Enilis vaguely saw that Regner seemed to turn his head and grimace at her at that moment.

"Ini will bear witness to her brother's revenge. Ineris happily muttered to herself, "Come on!"

"Uh, ahem......" Alfred coughed up another mouthful of blood, this time, he was really at the end of his crossbow, but the good news was that he finally opened the small box in his hand. The box contained three blue-purple potions carried by small crystal bottles, and now two of the three potions were completely empty, leaving only the last bottle intact.

But as long as you drink this last bottle of potion, even if your heart is completely pulled out, you can recover in just a few seconds. This was a reward given to Alfred by the Founding Emperor Hector, and today, he is finally going to use this last life-sustaining potion.

With a click, Alfred uncorked the crystal bottle, his hands trembling, and he tried to put the mouth of the crystal bottle to his mouth. When the liquid flowed into his mouth, Alfred's hanging heart finally let go, as long as he drank this potion, then even if Regner came again, he would have the confidence to fight again.

But Alfred was destined not to finish the potion, and when he drank less than a fifth of the potion, the old prime minister's arm holding the crystal bottle was completely separated from his body. Alfred's arm was not cut off by some sharp blade, but was directly trampled off by Regner's great stampede.

"That was good, very good!" Regner, who suddenly appeared, was dressed in tatters, and a lot of blood flowed from the corners of his mouth and forehead, and it could be seen that Alfred's blow just now had also caused him a lot of damage.

"Alfred!" Alexander tried a lot, but the soul still didn't move. According to Alexander's examination, the cause of death was not the indiscriminate killing of Alfred's light sword at all, but the blood hole under the back of his head. After making sure that the soul was not saved, Alexander wanted to get up to check on Alfred's injuries, only to see Regner stomp on Alfred's right arm. The king let out a roar of grief and indignation, summoned the bright moon, and rushed towards Regner.

With a cruel grin, Regner watched Alexander rush towards him almost frantically, and he lifted his foot again and kicked Alfred hard in the waist.

"No!" exclaimed Alexander.

The mage himself was quite weak, and Alfred was seriously injured at this time, so the old prime minister's fragile body was directly broken in half with the kick of Regner's divine power. After a muffled sound, blood and fragments of internal organs splattered out directly, and they even flew directly out more than ten meters away under Regner's charged blow, splashing on Alexander's face.

Alexander seemed to be stunned by the sudden spray of blood, and he even slowed down his pace, stopped, and stood blankly looking at Regner not far away.

"If I could, I'd like you to be like me and taste what it's like to have your loved one's blood sprayed on you. Regner turned his head to look at Lisanna, who was in a coma again, and said, "It's just unfortunate that the person you love is something I can never hurt." So it's a good choice, how does it feel?"

"Regner......" Alexander paused word by word, gritted his teeth and clenched the weapon in his hand again: "Regner!!"

"Hahahaha!!" Regner laughed maniacally, and his breath swelled again with the arrogant laughter: "Come on, Alexander, we're going to make a break today! I'm going to take revenge!!"

"Well said, revenge. But I think I'm the most qualified for this. A deep voice rang out in the square, and with that sound, the cloudless sky above Melindell began to darken and become cloudy.

Directly above Melindale Plaza, four orbs of red, yellow, blue, and green floated slowly in the air. Then, a six-pointed star circle appeared near the sphere, and when the circle appeared, the four spheres slowly flew to the four corners of the six-pointed star: upper left, upper right, lower left, and lower right. Only the two corners directly above and below the hexagram are still empty.

Regner stared at the circle in the sky, and his face gradually became gloomy: "Nidhogg, you really aren't dead yet!"
