GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Legion-5 stomped in the air and his figure flashed. He was shooting forward to enter their formation when he suddenly stopped as if he had struck an invisible obstacle. Whatever they hit him with seemed to have worked.

It felt like an invisible mud monster. The force that blocked him was wet and slimy. It attached to his body and burdened him. It slowed him down and even wanted to drag him down to the ground.

But he shrugged off the force and continued moving forward. Whatever it was, it washed over his armor like water on oil. Next cthe targetted curses and weakness buffs that they had brewed for years for just him. Those struck him head-on and froze him again.

Next cthe pure damage attacks. They are all energy attacks like his. They have prepared for years for this moment and now they bombarded his frozen figure from every direction. He couldn't dodge them at all.

They could have used these energy attacks one after the other for maximum efficiency but they used all they had to break through his defense once and for all. That is the best way to ensure effectiveness against a warrior. If they can't break through his defense, then it is useless.

The deluge of attacks created an explosion. Another mushroom cloud rose at this point. The plane shook again as the earth quaked. People stumbled and sbent down hugging their heads and hoping that the world wouldn't end.

The sound of thunder rang out because of the explosive shockwaves. It destroyed the eardrums of many people while the blast of light and heat blinded and destroyed weak things it touched.

The location of the fight is at the center of this explosion so it has bechazy and the ground has cratered. Still, the fight hasn't ended.

The suprbeasts hid behind their shields while the positive buff class tried to keep the warrior close to the explosion alive with their accumulated buffs.

It was a difficult task because the fallout of the explosion alone had taken the skin and stissues off of many warriors. Many of them are just hanging on for dear life so they require a vast amount of healing.

"That should do it. If he is not dead yet, then he should not be far from it."

Another said with a chuckle, "All we need to do now is grind him down. And that's if he somehow manages to survive that."

The person that spoke last tried to chuckle but the chuckle was awkward because no one was in the mood to laugh or be amused. If the Shadow of Despair does survive then it will not be a laughing matter at all.

They were all nervous waiting for the result of their efforts. All their attention was focused on the locus of the explosion.

They waited and didn't rush forward to attack him because the zone around him was a death zone of corrosive ionized matter and deadly radioactive energy. Anything in such an environment is going to be attacked over and over again.

They can't even use their divine sense to perceive what's going on in this zone. It is certain that even if the Shadow of Despair is not dead, this place will remain dead for an Origin cycle to come.

They didn't hear anything from the death zone. There was only silence which they hoped would continue forever. But they saw a shadow move from the ash-saturated superheated air above the death zone.

Someone warned with a shout of fear, "He is still alive."

The Shadow Of Despair is alive. He flew out of the death zone and rose to the sky. They couldn't believe what they saw. His body was still intact. And worse than that, the little injuries on his armor were healing as they watched.

It was obvious to them that not only did he survive, but even his defenses had not been broken yet.

Legion-5 asked them calmly, "Do you feel it yet?"

His tone was calm but his voice washed over them like a hot liquid that burns and freezes the burns. Sof them shivered because of it. It is unbecoming of Sovereigns of law to behave like that but Legion-5 is an entity that has left a shadow in their heart.

He asked them again, "Do you feel it rising within you?"

No one answered which made him shake his head in disappointment. He is honestly impressed with what they have achieved. They gave it their all and managed to make him freeze.

They achieved this mostly because even though he is very powerful, he is in a state of balance between order and Chaos. The negative buffs shifted that balance and made him freeze.

Even so, it is impressive that achieved it. After all, that is the only weakness that he has and they were able to exploit it.

That is something they ought to be proud of. As for the rest of their attacks, the best they managed to achieve with that was to tickle him. If the attacks were not concentrated in the first place, they wouldn't have managed to tickle him at all.

"You have done well. But do you feel it?" He asked them again and this the took a step towards them.

They couldn't help but take a step back from him. That feeling he was asking about began to rise faster within them because of his sudden movement. It is because they understood at this point that this fight would not end well for them even if they won. That's if they win.

Legion-5 laughed. His laughter of derision seemed to have woken them up from their nightmare.

"Attack!" Someone roared.

The Warriors stepped forward to do their duty again. Legion-5's voice rang in their mind with a sigh. "It seems it is not enough."
