Protagonist?Antagonist? I Reject Both

Chapter 322  322

CRUNG!

Lila took a step back, as she saw a crude blood-drenched figure who took out his hand.

Zara's figure, like a broken rag doll, fell on the ground and wriggled like a worm.

There was a scream not a gruesome roar of pain.

Maybe she was too pained to scream or she might have been too shocked or..

The hole in her chest might have snapped her chord, unable to function whatever may be but the figure suddenly lost its eyes as if it was dead.

The term death suddenly rang in everyone's mind who watched this scene.

They knew that they couldn't die here but just in case what if dying here means game over?

The sudden thought started scaring the shit out of them.

He took out his specks and raised the hair over his forehead exposing his sickening crimson eyes glowing with depravity.

Only when the specs were removed did she see the depth of depravity.

Then he looked at her, making her whole body freeze.

"OH MY!MY!"

"Did I scare you princess.."Aerin muttered, flashing an evil that not only blew Lila but everyone's mind there.

Lila's brows furrowed, her concern evident as she scanned the chaotic scene unfolding before her. However, before she could voice her thoughts, a sudden high-pitched blood-curdling shriek pierced through the arena, sending chills down her spine.

The shriek was quickly followed by a cacophony of terrified screams as grotesque creatures emerged from the shadows, striking fear into the hearts of everyone.

In just a few seconds, the silence was broken, and soon noises rang from all around.

The ground quaked and the trees started to shake.

In their terrified eyes they spotted a few blackish demonic figures appearing out and then coming out they bowed to Aerin as if he was their master.

These creatures, with their charcoal-like skin, sunken cheeks, and glowing blood-red eyes, were unmistakably black demons.

Tall and menacing, they brandished weapons with deadly intent, their black armour adorned with ominous blood-red patterns.

In an instant, they materialized among the crowd, their presence casting a pall of dread over the arena. It was clear to everyone present that this was no ordinary attack—it was the beginning of a full-scale assault on the place.

And amidst the chaos, the squad stood resolute at the far end of the field, his stance betraying his readiness to defend against the impending onslaught.

Much like humans, the black demons followed a hierarchy of power, with the strongest exerting dominance over the weaker.

Their society was a brutal reflection of their primal instincts, where strength and ferocity determined one's status.

At the bottom of this hierarchy were the lesser demons, their forms twisted and grotesque, their eyes burning with infernal fury.

Above them lurked the greater demons, towering figures wreathed in dark fumes, their demonic eyes piercing through the shadows.

And reigning supreme over all were the Archdemons, ancient beings of unparalleled power who commanded fear and reverence alike.

As the cadets watched in horror, a horde of black demons emerged from the darkness, their forms shrouded in malevolent energy.

With every step, they emitted dark fumes that choked the air and seared the senses, their demonic eyes glowing with unholy light.

Without hesitation, the demons descended upon the unsuspecting audience, their claws tearing through flesh and bone with savage precision.

Panic gripped the crowd as screams echoed through the arena, the stench of blood and sulfur filling the air.

Amidst the chaos, Lila stood frozen in disbelief, his mind struggling to comprehend the nightmare unfolding before him.

"Who? Who…Are You?

As the black demons closed in on him, their howls of rage reverberating in his ears, Lila felt a surge of terror, unlike anything he had ever known.

"You don't need to know that, Princess of Elves…After all, you are going to die and…"

He paused, taking a look at the other.

"If you are thinking that after death you will be transported out, you are wrong."

Aerin with a gruesome smile took a step followed by a horde of black demons that came pouring out.

But before the demons could reach him, a radiant flame barrier covered by rocks materialized around Lila shielding him from their onslaught.

It was Daisy and Durin who had conjured the protective barrier, their faces grim with determination.

As the black demons closed in on him, their howls of rage reverberating in his ears, Lila felt a surge of terror, unlike anything she had ever known.

"Lila, stop dazing!" Daisy called out, his voice trembling with fear. "We need to do something!"

Daisy rushed ahead, but a layer of black most suddenly dispersed all around.

Lila shook her head and pulled out her bow but before she could shoot.

BOOM!

The barrier before her was cut apart.

"Useless!"

Aerin snorted.

Liara and Drax with a roaring shot he's but masses of black demons shot at them.

Leaving behind a phantom, Aerin's image flashed before Lila who blurted out, "How did you become so strong." Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Her body also moved to avoid as she spotted, a dense blackish aura concentrated on his fingertips.

Aerin moved to slash but just then, he felt something.

Something sinister striving for his life.

His reflexes kicked in and instead of stepping ahead, he jumped back but a dark blade emerged out of nowhere and slashed him, which he avoided by ducking down in the air and twisted his torso to give a kick but it missed.

When he landed on the ground, dozens of darkish figures emitting dark fumes appeared in their vision.

Their appearance cast another layer of dreary on everyone here.

BANG!

The ground was split as she chopped her axe creating a crevice spreading outward.

"Now who you might be?"Aerin asked with a simple smile.

"KHUMMM!I am Seeker. I hope you satisfy me enough today."Seeker muttered licking her lips with a lascivious smile.

Seeker then raised her huge axe and snickered, "Can she be saved…"

CRUNCH!

The sound of stepping on the left echoed and the tall lean figure squatting down on Zara's body and pressing his palms on her.

"It's difficult but it's possible after all who I am?"

"I am the heavenly doctor Qin Lang!"
