Second World

Chapter 1953: Chapter 1953. Only Two Left

”What?! Havenʼt you prepared enough energy potion?” John yelled back.

”I have prepared a good number of every type of energy potion,” Trinity replied. ”They are all still under cooldown. My MP depletes faster than it can regenerate!”

”Shit!” John cursed. While Beelzebubʼs frenziness made him reckless, it also increased the strain on the Field Prison rune diagram. Trinityʼs mana manipulation might be strong enough to enhance it, but its fuel came from her MP. Once her MP ran out, the rune diagram would return to normal strength.

”Throw everything you have at him!” John commanded.

”Do you think we have not?!” Jet complained.

Jetʼs entire body was covered in silver. Not just him. His pet, the Brave Lion, also turned silver. This was Beast Conquerorʼs level 90 skill, the Ultimate Bond. It was a buff skill. All their stats were improved. While this skill was active, Jet and Brave Lionʼs life force was shared. Like Reaverʼs Soul Link, their HP remained at the same percentage.

”Iʼm out!” They heard Trinityʼs yell.

The wall of light encircling Beelzebub became much dimmer in intensity. Seeing that, Beelzebub didnʼt waste the chance. His legs stabbed into the wall of light imprisoning him, then he heaved. The wall of light was torn. The rune diagram under him fizzled out.

”Hahaha! Do you think you can imprison the Great Beelzebub?!” The devil spread his wings again and floated up. ”All of you will pay for your audaciousness!”

Spell formation formed before Beelzebub. However, when it was only halfway, it fizzled out of existence.

”What...?!” Beelzebub was taken aback by this.

”Hahaha!” John laughed. ”It seems that you have also run out of mana.”

Beelzebub was shocked at the statement. He realized then. The bugs had stopped coming out of him. He immediately checked his MP bar. It was indeed almost depleted. It was not enough to cast the spell he intended to cast just now.

He gritted his teeth. He couldnʼt believe he was pushed into such a condition. This was the first time such a situation happened. A strange feeling arose within him. A feeling that he did not understand. It was the same feeling experienced by Leviathan when he decided to bolt. Fear.

This strange feeling urged Beelzebub to do the same thing. His transparent wings flapped, and his body shot up into the sky.

”You wonʼt escape!” John exclaimed and flew chasing the devil.

He gave the command to his three lords. The Celestial Moth went and picked up John. Its flight speed was better than a wings tool. The Mighty Ape still had the Flame Incarnation. The flames on its back extended and formed two large wings. As for the Mutated Saurian, two pieces of the crystal plates on its back enlarged until they became two crystal wings. By this time, the eyeball spider, the crustacean demon, and the pit fiend had been defeated. They shot into the sky, chasing the devil.

Jet rode his Brave Lion, which also possessed better flight speed than a wings tool. Paytowinʼs Alpha Techno Suit also had a good flight speed. The three joined the chase.

Giant Steve, Purple Mist, and Fierce Flame chased using their wings tools. Of the three, Fierce Flame had the highest dexterity, so she was the fastest. Even so, she had a hard time keeping up with the others. Thanks to her long range, she could still shoot at Beelzebub, but the devil was getting further by the second.

Trinity Dawn stayed on the ground. Without MP, she couldnʼt do anything even if she joined the chase.

Beelzebub glanced back and saw these enemies chasing him. He still couldnʼt believe what was happening. He, the great devil, had to flee from this bunch of outworlders. If this news spread, how could he face his peers and subjects?

This humiliation caused him great anger. He wanted very much to turn back and tear all those outworlders apart, but good sense restrained him. There would be a time for revenge. He just had to reach his army.

He looked forward. It was not long now. Once he got to his army, they could protect him while demon healers healed him, and he rested to recover his MP.

While he was having that thought, he sensed an attack approaching fast. He barely dodged the attack when a very large beam covered everything in front of him. He had no choice but to stop. While he did that, a second beam struck him.

The first beam was Paytowinʼs Gamma Ray Cannon. The second beam was his Particle Core Cannon. These two attacks of Paytowin had the longest range out of everyone, except for Fierce Flameʼs Arrow of God, but her skill was still on cooldown.

Then, a third beam hit. The damage Beelzebub suffered from the third beam was less than the second one, but he felt his body becoming slow. This was because the third beam came from the Mutated Saurianʼs ice breath.

Due to those interferences, the others caught up to the devil.

”There is no escape, devil. Accept your fate!” John exclaimed.

Beelzebubʼs HP was already critical. He looked at his army. They were so close. He could see some fast demons flying toward him.

”Raarrhhh...! I will not meet my end today!” He shouted and charged toward the incoming demons.

Something slammed into him from above. It was the Mighty Ape. The ape used one hand to cling to his carapace, and the other hand punched repeatedly onto his back. Then, something heavy bumped into him, stopping his advance. It was the Mutated Saurian. The Saurian large jaw bit one of his six legs and refused to let go.

While he was halted, he saw the Celestial Monarch, Paytowin, Jet, and the Brave Lion fly ahead to stop the incoming demons. Seeing that was as if blowing out the fire of his last hope. His fear turned into despair. This drove him into a frenzy of rage again.

His body shook greatly while his legs stabbed uncontrollably at the two lords. He couldnʼt cast any spell, so this was the best he could do.

His frenzy successfully threw the two lords off his body. Once he was free, he charged at John. His fury rendered him blind. That fury made him see only one target, John. The culprit who threw him into the current situation.

John just looked at the incoming devil with a wicked smile. When the devil was about to strike him, he uttered, ”Steve.”

John then vanished. Replacing him was Giant Steve, whose shield now clanged with Beelzebubʼs incoming legs.

What had happened was Giant Steve using the Eternal Guardianʼs level 50 skill, Replace Save. The skill let Steve mark an ally. He could transfer places with this ally. The transfer could be done consciously or automatically when the marked ally received a fatal hit. If the transfer was triggered, the skill would start a one-hour cooldown.

Steve used Share Damage on Trinity but marked the Replace Save on John. This was because those two were Beelzebubʼs primary targets.

Beelzebub looked back and saw John was far away, where Steve used to be. Being denied to even vent out his frustration on John, his mind went into a mental breakdown.

”You, piece of sh*t! How dare you! Do you know the punishment I will bestow upon you? F*ck you! Iʼm going to devour you raw! I will chew you until you are nothing but a-”

His rambling stopped when his HP reached zero. His large body fell toward the ground. His body turned into dust before it reached the ground. Several loots replaced his disintegrated body and resumed their way to the ground.

John sent his two lords to help Jet and the others. He flew down to take the loots.

With Beelzebubʼs defeat, the demon army he commanded lost morale and became weaker. The defenders in the valley found their enemies much easier to deal with. As for the splintered demon battalions rushing over to save Beelzebub, they stopped in their tracks. They just

stood there and were at a loss about what to do.

Fierce Flame and Giant Steve also went to help Jet and the others. Purple Mist landed beside

John.

”We were lucky to pull that off,” Purple Mist said.

”Luck had nothing to do with it, my lady. It was all because of me,” John replied.

”You should learn a bit modesty, you know.”

”I donʼt see the need to.”

”Whatever. What loots do we get?”

”I am browsing them. I will give you if you need any.”

Purple Mist was vexed hearing that. She knew she should have gotten to the loots first before

John.

”You are an a*shole, you know that?” Purple Mist said.

”I know,” John replied. ”Donʼt worry. I am a fair a*shole. I will share these loots with you all.

We worked together to defeat Beelzebub, after all.”

”I will hold you to your words,” Purple Mist said. ”Do we know the situation of the other

fronts?”

”Not including Lucifer, there are only two devils left,” John answered.
