70 Chapter 70: The Mortal Spear (2)

"I will end you"

With those words, Mythander raised both his hands into the air as if praising the sun. The Ancestral Tree behind him ignited in a blaze as it started burning.

<Aspect Of Fire>

Mythanders forest green eyes turned fiery red and nine balls of fire circled behind him. The sky started burning which caused all even the demon king to pay attention at the sight. There was an oppressive feeling as if something waiting to be released.

<Sky-Fall>

The turning sky split apart allowing all below to see the horrific sight of a one-kilometer diameter sized fireball falling from the sky, heading straight for the entrapped Demon king.

The demon king of course would not stay still and let this monstrosity hit him, his struggles tripled within Mythandars bindings and he released all his demonic aura. This caused Mythander to have to divert some of his attention away from this super-tier spell he just cast and place his left hand on his magic staff to help stabilize the restrictions he placed on the demon king while his right hand made a pulling motion as if pulling the fireball from the sky.

Using only one hand severely impacted the speed at which the fireball would decent but it meant nothing if the demon king got free from the bindings and escaped the impact perimeter of the spell.

The demon king screamed as he struggled against his bindings but no matter what he did they would not break, the lightning numbed his body and the gravity pushed him down aided by the restrictive ruins of the <Ancestral Cage>, which not only held him in place but also restricted his thinking process and his sensory organs, he was in all manner of ways stuck like that waiting for the massive fireball falling towards him to burn him into cinders.

The fireball finally arrived above the demon king and slammed into him, the restrictions of the <Ancestral Cage> condensed the fireball to the range of the inside of the cage.

BOOM!

A horrific explosion engulfed the Demon King, who by now was screaming like a little bitch as the fires burned his flesh. He was unfortunately for Mythander much more resilient than he appeared and survived the initial blast and the fire burning him, unfortunately for him when the fire pushed out towards the <Ancestral Cage" it was deflected back to the demon lord making all the fire once more converge on him, giving him a second round of roasting to make sure he was well done.

When evrything had finally taken effect all that was left to do was wait until the dust settled. The restrictive spells had all been obliterated by the fireball and the <Ancestral Cage> Returned to the earth after reflecting the fire that was spreading out once.

Mythander frowned as he looked through the almost cleared dust cloud, the Demon King was rising from the ground coughing. His burned wounds and lost fingers were regenerating at the speed naked to the eyes, In a few minutes he would be completely healed and all Mythander's efforts would have been in vain.

'This is cheating!'

Mythander screamed in his head, but his body was already on the move, he could not give the Demon King the chance to recover. The Ancestral Tree behind him had a hundred roots come from the earth and all point towards the Demon King. The Demon King had only started rising from the ground when an unceasing barrage of tier 5 and lower spells was spammed at him. Each tip of the roots of the Ancestral tree was spamming a different kind of attack spell w at the Demon King, although they were Tier 5 and lower, having hundreds of spells frown at you over a long period could cause anyone to reconsider his life choices.

While the tree was busy with its jolly spamming Mythander was focussing on casting tier 8 to 10 spells to attack the demon king with.

'If quality didn't work let's try quantity, lets how long you can hold out before you die from indignation!'

Mythander thought as he kept spamming spells, thought his worries were great as well as his mana pool was dwindling at a heart aching speed as if he had gone shopping with his girlfriend after getting his pay only to walk out of the store in debt. If the demon king didn't spit blood and die of anger soon, Mythander might just have to incur debt and use his life force to power his spells.

Gregory and the rest of Mythander's friends were about four kilometers away, on the top of a small mountain observing the infestation caused by Mythanders fight with the demon king.

They wanted to help but had long realized they would only get in the way and cause Mythander to have to protect them if they joined in, it was hard to accept it but they did, they could not let their pride get in the way when it came to there friends life. They could only take deep breathes and watch as there friend fought for their nd everybody els' lives.

The young hero's that were saved hung there heads low in shame, they might have been summoned from there homes but they had put in ten years after that in training becoming some of the greatest figures in this world in such a short time, they thought they could slay the demon king by themselves, this was the result of failing to defeat the Demon King and having him hunt them down into human territory and even raise the city they took refuge in.

Gregory was standing at the forefront of the group, his claymore planted deep into the ground as his large hands gripped it tightly. He was watching the entire fight with clenched teeth, he felt the only agony as he used all his might not to run down and aid his friend he had known for forty years.

They first met on the battlefield went he elves and humans were at war against each other, this was the typical tale of enemies becoming friends after the two country's made peace. Forty years back he was already granted the title of strongest human, but even then when he had to face Mythander in battle he was beaten black and blue only escaping with his life by a hair length.

A white flash appeared next to Gregory bringing him out of his thoughts as he saw a beautiful woman with a white dress and hair appear next to him. Hse stared at the group before looking out at the battle with worry.

"He told us to retreat, this isn't a battle we can get into, but you right be able to help, Aura"

The woman didn't apply but jumped off the mountain and started flying at great speed towards the battle happening between Mythander and the Demon King.
