Chapter 252: 252. Banquet of Blood - 4
"You killed him!" Luna exclaimed in shock. Aster was a peak Platinum rank expert, yet he was killed so easily by him.
A ruthless expression appeared on Orion's face. "He wanted to kill my family, so he deserved to die, along with everyone else here."
"You will surely die for killing members of the Archons again and again," Luna glared at him, shouting in anger. "Go, break his legs and bring him to me," she commanded one of the Archons.
"Hahahahaha," Orion laughed like a madman. "You still don't understand the situation, do you?"
He narrowed his eyes at her and all the guests who had attacked his family. "All of you are going to die. NONE OF YOU WILL SURVIVE!" He slammed his palms together.
No sooner did his palms touch, the entire hall of the Emperor Heaven Palace began to tremble.
Before anyone could react, all the Archons, including the guests who had attacked Orion's family, were engulfed in spheres of purple light. Each of them was trapped inside a sphere glowing with golden lightning.
"Agghhhh! What is this?!" Discover tales on m_vl_em_p_yr
"This—this is just like when Aster was killed!"
"Help me!"
"Aggh! Someone help me!"
Screams of agony filled the hall as those trapped inside the purple spheres experienced the searing pain of being electrocuted by golden lightning.
Even Luna and the other members of the Archons were trapped inside these spheres, and like everyone else, they screamed in agony from the lightning attack.
"How do you like my present?" Orion laughed as he watched them suffer. These were the same people who wanted to kill his family, and seeing them in such pain filled him with intense satisfaction.
But he knew this was just the beginning.
Since last night, he had activated four curses in Curse Transformation mode: the Curse of Fractured Reality, the Curse of Thunder's Wrath, the Curse of Detonating Flesh, and finally, the Curse of Disintegration Aura.
He had been supplying his near-infinite energy to these curses since the previous night. The energy transferred to Fractured Reality was used to help his family escape, while the rest was channeled into these purple spheres. These weren't just ordinary bombs—they had the power to kill anyone. Even Orion wasn't sure of their limits.
The purple spheres were formed from the Curse of Detonating Flesh, the golden lightning within them came from Thunder's Wrath, and the final curse was Disintegration Aura, one of the deadliest curses he possessed. This curse allowed him to release an aura that would disintegrate anything into ashes.
By combining these three curses, he created the purple spheres. The destructive power generated by these curses was enough to kill anyone in the hall. After all, he had been supplying energy to these bombs non-stop, and with his near-infinite energy, they were powerful enough to kill everyone present.
Last night, when he snuck into the hall, he planted these bombs, not in the real Emperor Heaven Palace, but within his own dimension. If he had planted them in the original world, the destructive energy they emitted would surely have been detected by someone paying even a little attention.
Instead, he planted the bombs in his own dimension, mirroring the hall. This way, no one could sense anything, and he could bring them into the real world at any time to attack anyone in the hall.
"This much power! How could you possess an attack of such magnitude?" Luna screamed. Even though she was at Diamond rank, she could feel that she would die if this energy detonated.
"Let me go!" she began to shout, her voice filled with anxiety and despair.
"Are you kidding me?" Orion laughed with a crazed expression. "You wanted to kill me, and now you expect me to spare you? Such a thing isn't possible in this world."
He added, his words laced with bone-chilling ruthlessness: "I will kill you, and no one will be able to save you—not even that trash father of yours. He can only watch as his daughter dies in front of him."
"No, let me go! Father! Help me, Father!" Luna shouted desperately for her father to help her. She understood that as long as she had the War Medallion, she would be immortal, but that didn't mean she wouldn't die.
The medallion would only revive her after her death, so for it to work, she would have to die. Otherwise, even if her arms and legs were cut off, the medallion would do nothing. It would only activate if she died.
"I will wait for your trash father," Orion smiled and waited.
Not long after her continuous screams for help, Merlin and Kane descended from the sky.
They would be lying if they said they weren't surprised by the scene. The sight of so many purple spheres radiating a deadly aura, trapping nearly everyone in the hall, was enough to make anyone gasp, and Kane and Merlin were no exceptions.
"Father! Help me!" Luna shouted as soon as she saw Merlin.
"Luna!" Merlin exclaimed in distress when he saw his daughter screaming in agony, bombarded with golden lightning.
"Wait a minute, I'll get you out," he quickly began to use his talent when Kane's voice reached his ears.
"Anything you do to these spheres will make them explode," Kane warned him.
"Ah," Merlin immediately stopped when he heard Kane.
In his anxiety and distress for his daughter, he hadn't paid much attention to the spheres, but after Kane's warning, he examined them more carefully and noticed they were highly unstable. If someone were to even touch one of the spheres, it would explode into nothingness.
"Who? Who did this?!" Merlin shouted.
"It was me, you trash magician!" Orion stepped out from behind the cover of the purple spheres and revealed himself.
"You!" Merlin was shocked. He had thought a third party had attacked them, but he was wrong, the enemy was someone he already knew.
