Chapter 32 - Legion of Hungry Wolves

Just as he was about to tear the frantic goddess in front of him into innumerable pieces with his own teeth, a sudden palpitation from behind sent Voban flying to the other side.

"Zas!"

A silver light flashed, and the space where Voban had just been was cut in a straight line.

"Could this be the attack?"

"It's too despicable to unleash a large movement without waiting for me to arrive!"

A frivolous voice came from behind, and when Voban turned around and saw the figure appearing in the sea, the fierce light in his eyes shone even brighter.

Salvatore Doni! You still dare to appear here!

A few years ago, the prey he had summoned was snatched away by this kid right in front of him, and the current situation was very similar to the past.

Voban looked at Doni's frivolous and unchanging smile, and a twisted and hateful rage erupted in his heart.

"It's already begun."

In the cabin of a cruiser docked in the Adriatic Sea bay, Kaido felt the three waves of the Spirit Word shaking the atmosphere and raised the True Longinus to complete his transformation into Balance Breaker.

In the Godslayer world, flight magic is a very deep magic, and not all Godslayers necessarily know it.

Although Kaido himself couldn't fly, the Balance Breaker of the Godslayer equipment perfectly resolved this problem.

-King, are you going too?

As Kaido stood up, Erica and Liliana also stood up.

"As all the actors are here, I, the protagonist, can't always stay behind the scenes."

Kaido said with a smile.

The best result would have been for the three parties to converge, but it would be too late if he waited until the battle was almost over to appear.

Moreover, if he didn't make any moves, the final winner would definitely be Voban, and at that time, the Eastern European mage who defeated Athena would also obtain new authorities, which would be detrimental to him.

Kaido, who was about to leave, turned around and said: "Erica, Liliana, you two also be careful. Since Voban knows I lured him here, with his personality, he will definitely not let go of the people around me."

His death servants should arrive soon. If you can't handle them, return first.

"If the King is going to war, how can I, as a knight, stay behind and do nothing?"

Accompanied by a strong metallic tremor, Erica drew out the Lion Heart, her delicate figure, like a camellia, was resolute and noble.

"Don't worry, King, the death servants are inferior to us in strength, so we'll stay here until you return safely."

Liliana drew out her magic sword, and the Spirit Word emerged with its sharp blade.

The brave Princess Knights declared their vows to the King.

"Then wait for my good news."

Kaido slung the True Longinus over his shoulder, turned into a ray of light, and his golden back was firmly imprinted in the girls' eyes.

Although the battlefield was tens of kilometers away from the port, under the amplification of the enormous Spirit Word in Kaido's body, the Balance Breaker armor of the True Longinus gave him a kinetic energy that far exceeded the limit of human resistance, and the powerful G-force was enough to crush the flesh and blood of mortals.

At this incomparable speed, the distance between Kaido and the battlefield was rapidly reduced.

The closer Kaido got to the battlefield, the more fervent he felt the blood flowing through his body. The warrior's instinct drove the desire for battle, making Kaido feel the blood boiling without even doing anything, reaching his maximum power.

"Voban, Doni, and Athena, what do you think of the scene I've set up?"

Kaido, hidden beneath the armor, smiled, looking at these three gods and kings.

The tripartite balance was broken, and Voban, Athena, and Doni showed different expressions on their faces when they saw the newcomer.

Voban, transformed into a silver wolf, emitted a bestial growl, like mocking: "Good boy, although your strategy is quite rudimentary, it's undeniable that the result is good. So, I must congratulate you."

His greenish eyes looked at Kaido's head, full of brutality.

But you're only a bit smarter than that foolish kid over there. A young man who plays with his elders needs me to teach him a lesson!

Ay... Do old people really like to ramble that much? Better forget about the nonsense. I know that with your magnanimity, you'll hate me.

Kaido didn't care about Voban's taunts and cruelty; confidence depends on strength.

Although Marquise Voban had assassinated no less than ten authorities and possessed the largest number of authorities, he was still the same old saying: the strength of a Godslayer doesn't depend on the number of authorities, and if they really compared authorities, his might not be lesser than Voban's.

But most importantly, he also had his True Idea as a trump card.

The manifestation of divine will would definitely lead him to final victory.

But you're already an old man with one foot in the grave. Why don't you return quickly to your people, plant purple yams, and enjoy a pastoral life as soon as possible? The future belongs to us young people, and as an old man, you should step aside in time.

Although Kaido retorted with sarcasm, having received "quality education" from the internet, Kaido had never been afraid of anyone when it came to insulting others.

Hahahah! You dare to call me arrogant, you impudent brat, just because you've killed a few gods! And as for taking away the granddaughter of my servant Kranichar, prepare to pay the price you deserve! The silver wolf let out a cruel and furious laugh.

"?

Just as Kaido remained still and waited, his consciousness emitted a warning, and a feeling of being watched by a venomous snake silently arose.

The space vibrated, and he clearly sensed that subtle change.

The Godslayer equipment and his body simultaneously emitted a warning.

"Voban was right, you're really a fool."

Saying a word towards a certain point, Kaido's body, suspended in the air, instantly moved to one side, and he instinctively raised the True Longinus, pushing it behind him.

Although weak, this trail of silver light was quite visible under the dark sky.

"Whistle-!"

A long sword held by Doni shone like a mirage, pointing directly at Kaido's back.

"Metallic sound-!"

The True Longinus and the sword in Doni's hand clashed fiercely, sending sparks flying like fireworks in a festive night.

Incredible! Your intuition is as sharp as that old man's! I really didn't mistake the place!

Doni, wearing a floral shirt and bell-bottom pants, laughed with gusto.

It was a laugh without any mockery or resentment, but rather the joy of encountering a powerful opponent.

You're incredible! You managed to block my sword the first time you saw it! Even that old man suffered the first time!

Doni found his sunglasses too obstructive, so he threw them into the sea.

This allowed Kaido to clearly see the deep blue eyes of the golden-haired young man.

They were filled with passionate flames and a growing intention of battle... oh, and seemed to have something more: "foolishness".

The evaluation of Doni by the three, including Kaido, was completely consistent.

Especially in the eyes of Athena, everything Doni did was creating new enemies, but as a disobedient goddess, a goddess in a disadvantaged position, she was naturally happy to see this situation.

Hahahah! You're of my kind.

Although Kaido called him a fool, Doni still showed a happy and cheerful smile.

A simple and optimistic battle fool: this was the most direct evaluation of Doni.

There was no intention to kill towards Kaido in his eyes, nor the kind of hatred that Voban felt for having his territory and servants taken away; there was only an intention of endless battle.

Well! Let me calm you down here, ignorant brats!

Voban, who had been completely ignored, suddenly erupted, the wave of Magic Words on his entire body created a huge whirlpool in the turbulent sea, and his gleaming fangs were launched towards Kaido.

The war between the three kings was already destined when the Gorgon Stone appeared.

And Kaido's plan only advanced it.

"As the star that shines during the day... the light of Lykos reaches the heavens!"

Voban, transformed into a silver wolf, spoke human words, and this phrase, empowered by the Magic Words. With the power of the authority activated by the Magic Words, nearly a hundred dark gray demon wolves, each the size of an adult horse, roared and shot out of the void.

Thanks to the skills of Gale and Tempest, they were granted temporary flight capabilities and could move freely through the air.

As soon as dozens of demon wolves appeared, they all targeted Doni, who wore a floral shirt. Although these demon wolves were not as strong as the divine beasts summoned by Kaido, they had the advantage of being numerous. Not only did they possess a keen sense of smell, but also agility comparable to that of pursuing cars.

Their blue-green pupils, slightly lighter than Voban's, revealed a cruel ferocity, and their drooling teeth fiercely lunged at Doni.

Marquise Voban and Doni had a long-standing grudge, so there was no need for a reason to fight.

Each of these demon wolves possessed considerable strength; anyone below the level of a Great Knight would find themselves in a tough battle, and they were not ordinary beasts but had combat capabilities comparable to a cavalry commander's legion.

Of course, this pack of demon wolves couldn't harm Doni, but binding him was enough.

"I am the strongest bearer of victory! Expel the obstacles from my path!"

Facing Voban's bite, Kaido frowned and then chanted the Spirit Word of Veleslana, activating the Spirit Word on his entire body and giving his own power a gradual boost.

"Isn't power a hindrance?"

The Spirit Word of Typhon was recited by Kaido.

One of his authorities, the power of the Lord of Strength "Set", gathered instantly throughout his body, giving Kaido superhuman strength.

Although the wolf man that Voban had transformed into possessed extremely strong physical power, it posed no threat to Kaido, because his power was even greater.

"Explosion-!"

The distance between them was reduced in an instant, and the intense intention of battle made Kaido unable to dodge. The brilliant human figure in gold and the enormous silver wolf, over ten meters tall, collided.

With a crunch, the silver wolf's fur first shone and then, accompanied by Kaido's low roar, the light of the True Longinus intensified.

"Pfft—!"

A dull and piercing sound emerged from the silver wolf's neck, and the brilliant, spiral tip of the True Longinus was embedded in the flesh and blood of the silver wolf that Voban had transformed into. Kaido also raised his left fist in time and slammed it into Voban's roaring head.

Auge-!

Accompanied by a sharp, teeth-grinding sound, like bones breaking, the place hit by the golden gauntlet turned into a bloody disaster, and the enormous silver wolf also let out a miserable cry, emitting a bestial howl, and was actually sent flying directly into the sea by Kaido's punch.

Suddenly, terrifying waves rose, forming a water curtain before their eyes.

Three kings and a disobedient god were fighting in the sky above the Adriatic Sea.

This news spread like a meteor through the hidden side of the world.

Mages and knights who heard the news for the first time sneered: a fight between two kings was plausible, but they simply couldn't believe in a free-for-all battle between three kings.

However, when they saw the dark clouds gathering and the continuous lightning striking the Adriatic Sea, they were finally stunned.

Even through screens and photographs, they could feel the Spirit Word inside them that could destroy everything.

At that moment, not even the most excellent mage in the world would dare to guarantee that they could survive three seconds in that vortex of Magic Words.

The Godslayer Kings, who could rival the gods, didn't base their prestige solely on the legends of others; their own martial prowess was the best proof.

Throughout history, there have been many humans who have dared to challenge the authority of Godslayers, but their bones have long since decayed, becoming nutrients for the earth.

The name of a Godslayer alone is enough to transcend all others.

News spread by who knows who claimed that the new King also participated in the War of the Three Magician Kings.

Thus, intelligence organizations from all over the world quickly went into action, sending brave warriors to the Adriatic City with the hope of obtaining firsthand information.

This was the best opportunity to find out the new King's authorities and other information; everyone was competing for it.

However, compared to those active intelligence agencies, the former president of the world's largest intelligence organization, Princess Alicia, was anxious.

Such an important event, and the King didn't discuss it with me beforehand. While it's your freedom to decide how to handle the Gorgon Stone, attracting the Sword King and Marquise Voban was a grave mistake.

The beautiful girl with long platinum blonde hair paced back and forth in the room. After recovering, today should have been a day to ride horses and enjoy the meadow.

However, when Princess Alice heard that Kaido had actually fought against Marquise Voban, she immediately canceled her planned itinerary and went to the headquarters of the Council of Sages, closely monitoring the latest news from the front.
