One True God

Chapter 83: Battle

"No can do, captain. No, wait, what was your name again? Well, whatever."

"You're going to die here, too."

Lucifer said as he finally finished preparing himself.

It was then that a huge magic circle appeared on the ground.

The huge magic circle had the color of red and it was shining so bright that the people present in this place were blinded by the light, but, of course, not Lucifer.

He was looking down on the magic circle that he prepared to kill the Patriarch and the 6 pillars of the Warmester Denoble House and also Rouge, who was just looking at him with horrified eyes.

Of course, the Patriarch and the 6 pillars were not just standing around when the huge magic circle appeared on the ground.

The 6 pillars...backed down a little bit as they stepped back and chose to prioritize to protect themselves.

Well, it was only obvious that the 6 pillars would choose to protect themselves in this situation.

After all, there is a tremendous amount of mana in the magic circle on the ground that they could feel.

What's more, the tremendous amount of mana in the magic circle was really dense and powerful that they were forced to be wary against it even though they first looked down on Lucifer.

Well, it was only natural that they would look down on Lucifer since they knew that he just came from the slums or something like that, but after this, they were forced to change their thoughts and opinions about Lucifer since the magic circle was just...threatening.

Of course, it was not only them who thought this way, but also the Patriarch, who was still sitting on the chair while gripping on his staff.

His head was looking in the direction where Lucifer was located, at the very center of the magic circle, and he was looking at Lucifer with...a pissed off look on his face.

After all, he didn't expect that something like this would happen on the very day that he came out here to meet his son, Rouge.

It was only natural that he would get pissed, but...that was all the Patriarch felt right at this moment.

He was just pissed. He wasn't feeling any worry for his life right now or anything of the sort. He didn't feel fear for Lucifer, who was showing such a magical magic circle filled with dangerous and threatening mana.

And that was because...this situation was just like any other situation to the Patriarch of the Warmester Denoble House.

He didn't feel the need to worry for his life right now because...there was no need to.

He didn't feel fear for Lucifer because...there was no need to fear him.

Right...and that was because the Patriarch was confident that the 6 pillars would definitely be able to put down the magic circle on the ground and kill Lucifer before anything would happen to him.

He was that confident when it comes to his subordinates' strength and decision making in this situation.

And he was not wrong as the 6 pillars started to make a move on Lucifer.

"Go, War!" String shouted out loud as he gave the signal for War to proceed with what he planned to do.

And what War planned to do was...to chop off Lucifer's head before the magic circle could do something against them.

That was why...when War heard what String said, he disappeared from his spot and moved fast.

He closed in on Lucifer, and out of nowhere, War was holding some kind of sword in his right hand.

The sword was shining with some kind of light, and this light was War's mana that he used to make sure that the sharpness of the sword would be able to cut anything.

Although the 6 pillars were sure that Lucifer was weaker than any of them, they didn't dare underestimate him due to the magic circle that he produced.

And that was why...it was not only War who closed in on Lucifer as the right-hand man of the Patriarch appeared right behind Lucifer.

'Hmmm...a pincer attack, eh?' Lucifer thought as he readied himself.

He bent his knees and churn out some more of his mana and guided it towards his hands.

Behind him was the right-hand man of the Patriarch and right in front of him was War, the man who was considered to be the strongest leader out of all the 4 leaders of the organizations.

The strength of the combined attack of these two was bound to be tremendous and life-threatening, but...Lucifer's face showed no panic at all as he just...disappeared from his spot as well.

'Huh!? Where did he go?!' The right-hand man of the Patriarch and War thought at the same time when they noticed that Lucifer disappeared.

However, that was not important at all as...they didn't just come here to kill Lucifer.

They...closed in on Lucifer for two reasons; to kill Lucifer and...to disable the magic circle, and the only way they would be able to do that is to disrupt the mana imbued in it.

"I'll handle it!" The right-hand man of the Patriarch shouted out loud as he arrived at the very center of the magic circle and stopped there.

Of course, he said those words to War, who was now right in front of him.

War was...he was not listening to the right-hand man of the Patriarch as he was already on the lookout for Lucifer.

However, when War found Lucifer, he became shocked as...Lucifer was...fighting against the other 6 pillars.

Right, Lucifer was fighting against the other 6 pillars. To be exact, he was fighting against String and Intel right now, and the other two guys were on his ass, chasing after him as Lucifer traded blows against String and Intel.

But...that was not the main reason why War was shocked when he found Lucifer.

'H-he's fighting against them on even terms...' War thought as he saw Lucifer overpower String and Intel at the same time on a battle while dodging the attacks from the left-hand man of the Patriarch and Moni.

And this sight was just...beyond ridiculous!

After all, who were the 6 pillars? They were literally the strongest subordinates of the Warmester Denoble House, and they were the leaders of their respective organizations.

The other two, the left-hand man and the right-hand man of the Patriarch, were powerful on their own right as well.

And now...someone with no background at all, and someone who supposedly came from the slums was overpowering two of the 6 pillars while dodging the attacks of the other two of the 6 pillars?

'That's just ridiculous!' War thought as he bit his lips when he realized how dire this situation was.

He then kicked off the ground powerfully to help the other 6 pillars fight against Lucifer.

And Lucifer was...he felt War closing on in right away as he dodged some kind of mana projectile that came from Moni.

However, Lucifer didn't really care about War at all as he just looked at String and Intel.

"You guys are nothing special. Did I get my hopes up just to be disappointed by how weak you are?" Lucifer said.

And as soon as he said those words, the 6 pillars that he was fighting all stopped moving as they just stood.

String and Intel were just standing in front of him, and the left-hand man of the Patriarch and Moni just stayed on the back, waiting for a chance to pounce on Lucifer.

War also just stopped his move as he felt that Lucifer...had an abnormal amount of mana on his right hand.

However, that was not the main point. That was definitely not the reason why the 6 pillars stopped fighting against Lucifer in this crucial moment.

It was because...the abnormal amount of mana on their enemy's right hand came from the magic circle on the ground.

And this was...unknown to them. They didn't know if this was possible to make or whatever, but...the fact that it happened right in front of them made them wary and cautious against Lucifer.

After all, they didn't know what this move can do as they didn't even know what the magic circle is used for.

"Hmm...As soon as I start to reveal my cards, you guys stopped fighting," Lucifer murmured as he squinted his eyes.

His face was...it was laden with disappointment as he began to shake his head.

"Yeah, you guys are really nothing special," Lucifer sighed as he felt...disappointment all over his body.

And as soon as he said those words, String retaliated back as he shouted out loud, "Shut your trap! You haven't even seen the best of us, yet, and now you're being so arrogant just because you were able to trade some punches against us?!"

"You will die here, and that's for sure! Even if Rouge begs for your life, the fact that you disrespected the Patriarch spelled the death for your pathetic life!" String said as he looked...angry.

However, for Lucifer, String looked like he was waiting for something.

'Oh? He's buying time for that guy to disable the magic circle, huh?' Lucifer thought as he felt that the right-hand man of the Patriarch was fiddling around with his magic circle.
