Chapter 562:The Battle Of Divine Knights
The Orc Divine Knight who had been slammed into the ground struggled to move, and his body trembled as he tried to push himself up from the crater, but before he could even lift himself properly, a cold voice cut through the air and froze him in place.
"If you dare to get up, I will go for the kill," Ethan said, and his tone was calm but carried a sharp killing intent that pressed down heavily.
The Orc gritted his teeth and forced his head up, and anger burned in his eyes as he shouted back.
"Do you think I am afraid of you!"
Ethan's expression turned colder, and his eyes narrowed slightly as his patience ran out, and without another word he moved forward, preparing to strike again.
But before he could two attacks intercepted him from different directions, and both carried heavy force as they cut through the air toward him.
BOOM!BOOOM!
Ethan dodged the two attacks sidestepping backward.
"Human, know your place," one of the Divine Knights said coldly as they stepped forward together.
Ethan blocked the attacks, and the impact echoed across the sky while a small shockwave spread outward, and his body steadied itself mid-air.
He then slammed his chest lightly, and a low roar escaped him as his aura flared.
"Are you bullying me with numbers!" he shouted, and his voice carried both anger and challenge.
"Then come out, you bastards!"
"I will take you one at once."
The words stunned many on the battlefield, and murmurs immediately spread among the Elven side.
"Damn…?"
"Has he gone mad?"
"Carrion, do something!"
"What can I do!" Carrion replied helplessly, and his brows were tightly furrowed as he looked at the situation.
Even Michael's expression faltered slightly as he watched Ethan, and the weight of the Queen's order echoed in his mind.
The Queen had made it clear.
No matter what, Ethan should not be harmed.
Her order was absolute.
Michael was about to step forward to intervene, but just then Ethan looked up toward him, and his gaze was steady.
"Since they want to die, it won't be a problem if I kill them, right?" Ethan asked.
The question made Michael pause mid-step, and his eyes widened slightly as he looked at Ethan as if asking whether he was serious, but when he saw the calm confidence in his face, he hesitated for a moment.
Then he spoke.
"You can do as you please," Michael said slowly. "They came for you, so as long as they do not harm the Elves, I will not make a move unless…" he added while turning his gaze toward Barbatos.
Barbatos smiled faintly, and he pressed his lips together as if amused.
"I do not have a habit of interfering with a junior," he said calmly.
"Since you want to die so early, then…"
As his words fell, more figures stepped forward, and their presence filled the sky as additional Divine Knights joined the battlefield.
Five in total.
Their auras spread outward, and the pressure increased instantly.
But instead of retreating, Ethan laughed softly, and there was no fear in his expression.
To him, it had always been simple.It was a matter of fists.
And since he believed his fist was stronger, he had no reason to back down.
The next moment, his body began to change.
Scales started to form over his skin, and they spread rapidly across his arms, chest, and even part of his face while shining faintly under the light.
They looked solid, ancient and powerful.
The Orcs froze for a moment as they saw it.
"WHAT!"
"Is he a dragon!"
"Damn!"
They began to curse loudly, and disbelief filled their voices as they stared at him.
A dragon was fundamentally different from others, and they had a higher mana pool along with far stronger defense, and facing one was never a simple matter.
But Ethan was not done.
He extended both his hands forward, and as he did, multiple magic circles appeared around him, and they layered over one another while glowing with different energies.
SWISSHHH!
A violent storm began to form instantly, and strong winds swept across the area while lightning started to flicker through the clouds.
The sky darkened slightly, and the pressure grew heavier with each passing second.
The wind howled and the air trembled.
And the battlefield itself seemed to respond to his presence.
The Orcs looked at him, and their expressions turned tense as sweat began to form on their faces.
"FUCK!"
"Is this guy even a human!"
The storm above did not calm down, and instead it grew heavier as dark clouds gathered tightly while lightning continued to flicker across the sky, and the pressure in the air became thick and suffocating.
Ethan stood at the center of it, and his eyes remained calm while his hands moved slowly, guiding the energy around him with control.
Then he attacked.
CRACK!
A bolt of lightning shot down from the sky, and it tore through the air with terrifying speed while aiming directly at the Orc Divine Knights.
Another bolt followed immediately, and then another, and within moments countless lightning strikes began to rain down continuously, and each one carried destructive force as they crashed toward the Orcs.
BOOOOM! BOOOOM!
The Orc Divine Knights reacted at once, and their expressions turned sharp as they raised their weapons while bracing themselves.
"Block it!" one of them shouted.
CLANG! CLANG!
They slammed their blades upward, and each strike collided with the descending lightning while sparks burst across the sky, and the force of the impact pushed them back slightly as their arms trembled.
Some bolts missed and struck the ground, and those impacts exploded violently while the land shattered and deep cracks spread across the battlefield, and debris flew into the air.
SWISH!
Ethan's figure shot forward like a streak of light, and in the next instant he appeared right in front of them.
