Chapter 626: Saint Monastery (VII)

“Who are the ones breaking into the Saint Monastery!?”
A tall figure rushed out of the monastery entrance and shook the ground with his heavy footsteps. It was a man clad in steel armor from head to toe, clasping an enormous flail in his hands. There were two dazzling dots of radiance illuminating from the pitch-black helmet. Even though he didn’t move an inch, the imposing aura emanating from him spread wildly like a towering mountain. In an instant, the spacious plaza fell into total silence as though a transparent curtain had muffled everything. This was the symbol of a power being in the Legendary Stage.
But this meant nothing for Mini Bubble Gum.
“Hmph. Worthless trash.”
Mini Bubble Gum let out a snort of disgust and it was this remark that sent the man shuddering as though an invisible punch had landed an uppercut on his chin, forcing him half a step back. The man’s reaction forced exclamations out of the Saint Knights lined behind him. The man was Sister Helen’s bodyguard and one of the strongest knights here. But now, he actually lost to this young girl in presence!
The man secured his footing and sucked in a deep breath before gazing at Mini Bubble Gum with a stern expression. He thought he could use his imposing presence to probe her strength. However, he didn’t expect that it would surpass his expectations. The little girl’s snort to his pressurizing presence felt as though a hot knife through butter, shattering his mighty presence!
In this instant, he thought his heart had stopped beating, which stunned him to the spot. He thought that Mini Bubble Gum was only an ordinary Battle Angel. But her imposing presence was shoulder to shoulder to the three Archangels!
But…
The man knitted his brows in suspicions. To the legendary presences, their imposing presence were the product of their character and vigor. However, he didn’t sense any holiness and dignity of the Angels in the young girl’s aura. Instead, it felt as though fury waves that were full of arrogance and disdain. It could also be said that he didn’t feel anything related to the Angels on the young girl. On the contrary, there were qualities that resembled the Demons—the extremely arrogant attitude treating the Saint Knights as though they were even lower than ants.
The man let out a snarl and charged forward with his raised flail. The Saint Knights behind him yelled out in unison and stomped forward. Canary came to a stop gradually and displayed a calm, gentle smile as though the sea of enemies flooding toward her weren’t worth a mention.
At this moment, the distance between both sides was less than 200 meters. In the blink of an eye, the Saint Knights, who were boosted by the buff of the legendary weapon, covered the distance between them and brandished their weapon to crush their enemy to bits.
But this wasn’t the case.
The Saint Knights had strange difficulties charging forward as though time had slowed down drastically. No matter how much they pushed forward, they couldn’t close in to her. The blessings of the legendary weapon were still present, but they felt exhausted. They widened their mouths and panted, but…
Boom!
A Saint Knight collapsed to the ground with widened eyes and ashen expression, clutching his shield and weapon. But there was no luster of life in his eyes. Not only him, but the other Saint Knights also collapsed one by one as though a domino effect. None of them stood back on their feet!
Same went for the one who led the pack.
Why? Why!?
The man widened his mouth and breathed heavily through his thick helmet. He had never felt this powerless. The powers of the legendary weapon flowed in his body, boosting him with unprecedented strength. However, he had never felt this drained. He gazed at the figure closing in and his footsteps became increasingly slower. As a being in the Legendary Stage, he shouldn’t be feeling this at all. But now, his hands and legs were as though cuffed by heavy steel chains and couldn’t move freely. The young lady came to a halt and smiled at him. Although she didn’t seem to have done anything, the nonchalant smile plastered on her face affirmed the man that it was all her doing!
Stomp! Stomp!
He finally arrived before her with heavy feet, panting and lifting his flail. The distance between them was less than four steps and as long as he brandished his weapon, he could easily crush her skull to fragments. But, even so, Canary continued to smile at him.
The man clutched the flail in his hands and suddenly, his knees weakened.
Boom!
His collapse resounded in the silent plaza. He stubbornly lifted his head and gazed at the young lady in disbelief. Then, his head plunged to the ground uncontrollably.
At this moment, a sharp scream pierced their ears.
“No! My beloved!”
A glaring red radiance flashed in the entrance. Then, a woman donned in a scarlet robe rushed out. Her dignified expression distorted to her furious emotions.
“Renault! My beloved! You can’t leave me alone here! Have you forgotten about our promise?!”
The woman lifted her scepter high.
“Stand up, my beloved. Do it for our eternal promise and fight for me!”
Suddenly, the thick, black armor on his body sparkled in countless magical runes. Then, the man’s lifeless eyes sprung open and he stood up abruptly!
“I’ll fight for you! My…”
Before the man finished his dramatic confession, Canary extended her fingers and flicked lightly.
The man’s heavy armor cracked to the pressure and ripped apart as though it was made of paper. The man let out a blood-curdling screech as the immense force blasted him away and fresh blood spurted from the cracks of his armor. It was apparent that it wasn’t only the armor that Canary had twisted.
Sister Helen screamed mournfully and she was blasted back into the pitch-black entrance as though a battering ram had rammed into her body.
Canary clapped the dust off her palms. She turned around with her unchanged smile.
“All done, Rhode.”
