Chapter 175: One of the Ten Sacrileges Vs Demyul

Somewhere on the battlefield, “Die!” Demyul shouted and brandished the huge sword in his hands. *Bang!* It was a powerful strike from above and directly to his enemy. “Hehe! Is that all you’ve got?!” Unfortunately, the enemy laughed after blocking it, using a thick, long metallic sword on his hands.

“Shut Up! Criminal!”

Demyul bellowed. Then, he increased the strength of his arms and hands to push back the enemy. Opposing it, the enemy also strengthened his hold on his sword. The two of them were both wielding a massive sword in their hands, and both were trying to push their enemy through strength.

But soon they stepped back simultaneously. They had equal strength. Demyul narrowed his eyes. “Are you the bandit lord?” He asked. The person in front of him had a similar build as him. The two of them were equal in terms of height and body size based on how Demyul sees it. Also, he did not want to admit it, but, based on his analysis, the enemy was stronger than most of the bandits around. Demyul knitted his brows in suspicion when the enemy’s mouth gradually formed to a grin.

“Hehehe!” The bandit laughed at his question. “I know I’m strong, but compared to the lord, I am nothing,” he said with a smirk.

“So, you are not the bandit lord, huh,” reacted Demyul with a nonchalant face. “Then, die!” He bellowed while swinging his sword in a strong downward strike.

THONK!

.....

It was followed by a loud impact when the enemy successfully blocked the attack by lifting horizontally the sword in his hands. A strong pressure generated around them baffled the battling soldiers and bandits.

“Not so strong,” said the bandit to Demyul. “My name is Decapitator Roi. One of the members of Ten Sacrilege!” Announced the bandit, while at the same time ushering more power and pushed Demyul away.

Demyul was sent a few steps away but still remained on his feet. He skidded a little but stopped after anchoring his sword into the ground by stabbing it.

“T-Ten Sacrilege?” Demyul asked with surprise on his face. It was the first that he heard about it. There was no report regarding it. Although the palace stopped sending soldiers to reclaim this land, it didn’t mean that they stopped sending people to spy on this area.

The current Emperor wasn’t the type of person who just let his land rot in the hands of these criminals. The only reason that the emperor stopped sending soldiers to reclaim this land was because of the unceasing attacks from the demons at the frontline. And there were more fallen towns and villages that needed more attention. Like, for example, Sitona Town. Demyul heard that right at this very moment, Sitona Town was undergoing rehabilitation. Sitona was in the process of turning into the second camp of operation for the soldiers that would be sent into the frontline to fight the demons. It could also be said that the former town of Sitona would be the new training ground for the future elite soldiers of the empire.

Regardless, although it surprised him to learn that there was such a group known as

The Ten Sacrilege, it doesn’t matter to him that much. After all, he was not even of the top brass in the empire’s army. But perhaps, the higher-ups in the soldier department knew about them. Though, Demyul was curious about the goal of these people. Why did these bandits build such an organization inside their group?

“What is your objective and who is your leader?” He asked but Demyul had a suspicion regarding it. Nonetheless, since they were an organization, it was only natural that they have objectives.

“Heh,” the bandit, Decapitator Roi, scoffed at Demyul. Then he held the sword above his shoulder in both hands. Then, the next second, “Do you think you are fit to know about our objectives!?” Decapitator Roi shouted then charged towards Demyul. He swung his sword after arriving in front of him. A semi-shockwave was generated that caused the surrounding people to be thrown away, soldiers and bandits alike.

Demyul parried the attack and followed with his attack. “Don’t underestimate me!”

Thonk!

Seeing the incoming attack, the bandit Decapitator Roi twisted his arm and attacked also. *Ting!* It was followed by an ear-piercing sound.

Then the two of them engaged in several exchanges of sword attacks. The two of them summoned magical energy on their swords. “Charging Beast From The Far East!” Demyul executed a charging attack in which pointing the tip of the sword at his enemy. It was strong and overwhelming. It was an attack that originated in the far east. He learned from a traveling master. Since his enemy would never say the purpose of their group’s creation, he would defeat him and force him to tell.

Seeing Demyul’s attack, Decapitator Roi’s face turned bitterly. He held the massive sword in his hands whereas the flat surface of it was facing Demyul. And his right shoulder was bracing the opposite flat surface, to counter the power of his enemy’s attack. “The Obelisk Defense!” Shouted Decapitator Roi. After shouting, reddish scale-like, that made of magical aura formed on the sword’s surface. Even his body was exuding a reddish aura. It was a type of defense ability that coated the massive with scale-like energy. Although it was made of magical energy, it was solid and tough. It was a rare ability that only people with great endurance could manifest.

At the impact, the space around them seemed vibrating. Even the ground where they stood up was trembling. Debris of the ground started to lift high. The pit was formed beneath them. All of these were the result of two opposing forces.

The two of them contested in strength. And now in a stalemate for a couple of seconds. Demyul was pushing his massive sword in which the tip of it was trying to break the defense of Decapitator Roi, seemingly believing that his enemy could not break his defense no matter how he tried. “Hehe!” Laughed Decapitator Roi, who seemed to be amused by his enemy. Demyul knitted his brows. “Dumbass! Don’t look down on me!” He shouted. Then the tip of his sword shone brightly. “Wha-!!!” Decapitator Roi uttered in surprise. However, without finishing his word, a blinding light erupted. It was followed by a loud explosion.

BOOOM!
