Chapter 133.2: Phantom of The Past

「IMPOSSIBLE! YOU SNATCHED ECLIPSE FROM ME!」

Zarxis shouted hatefully.

Zarxis couldn’t completely control Eclipse, in fact, my affinity with Eclipse was much better.

That’s why I managed to snatch Eclipse from him.

「What a terrifying man you are, Dark Knight! To think that you really managed to snatch the control of Eclipse from Zarxis! Honestly, your ability is wasted on that wimpy Modes! I’ll give you another offer! Become my comrade, Dark Knight!」

The Serpent Queen gave me another invitation.

But that wasn’t something that I could accept.

What she did inside the pyramid is still fresh in my memories.

Diadona calmly disposed of the subordinates who failed to accomplish their mission.

Modes would never do that.

Though it showed his naivety as a ruler, I couldn’t bring myself to hate that kindness of his, the one that cared for his subordinates no matter how trivial they were in the scheme of things.

Even if his naivety made him a failure as the ruler, Modes was still the best person as a comrade.

That’s why I wouldn’t become Diadona’s comrade.

「My deepest apology, Serpent Queen. I can’t become your comrade. Despite his cowardice, I still prefer to be on His Majesty, The Demon King’s side.」

I bowed to her and expressed my rejection.

「I see. That makes you a coward too, no? Truly unfortunate…」

The Serpent Queen shook her head in disappointment.

「Serpent Queen! I’ve already snatched Eclipse from you! The tables have turned! Will you take this chance and step back peacefully?!」

I asked the Serpent Queen.

Elios and Gypseal aside, I had no reason to start a fight with the Serpent Queen.

「AHAHAHAHA! THE TABLES HAVE TURNED YOU SAY! WHAT A JOKE, DARK KNIGHT! YOU THINK YOU’VE ALREADY WON! ZARXIS!」

The Serpent Queen suddenly replied with a sinister laugh.

「She’s right, Dark Knight! Eclipse is not my only trump card! Behold, the true essence of death!」

The moment he said so, Zarxis’ figure transformed.

The lower half of his vestment bulged and then tore to pieces, showing a spider-like body with six legs.

Those legs were sharp, and shaped like a scythe.

「NOW SING, O SORROWFUL ONES! GIVE DEATH TO THE DARK KNIGHT!」

Zarxis’ vestment was completely torn to pieces and then, the countless faces on his body started wailing in pain.

「Did you take people’s soul?!」

I couldn’t help but shout in shock.

「Correct, Dark knight! They will eat your soul! And return Eclipse to me!」

Zarxis had already turned into something grotesque. Hairless, pale skinned, with a lower half of a spider and an upper half of a bat.

There was a huge mouth around his stomach.

The twelve eyes on his face glared at me.

「Hahahaha! Zarxis! Since you planned to go all out, then I, Diadona shall go all out too! Come forth, spirit cup of chaos!」

The moment Diadona said so, a huge cup appeared right before her.

My gut told me that this cup was really bad news.

I felt that I mustn’t let whatever was inside the cup come out.

Even the Evil Gods paled when they saw the cup.

Some of them screamed in fear.

It seems they knew what the Serpent Queen was trying to do.

Apparently, the same thing happened to Rena, Totona, and the Gypseal side.

Suddenly, I felt my back was drenched in cold sweat.

It seems that snatching the control of Eclipse was not enough to ensure our victory.

There was only one option left, I had to go all out.

Alas, I still had no full control over my draconic power.

If I use this power, I would need Rena to save me again.

That would include taking care of my raging boner after that.

That’s why I wanted to avoid using that power.

「Wait right there, Diadona!」

A voice could be heard from overhead.

When I looked up to the source of that voice, I saw a giant sphinx shining like the sun flying above us.

I was really surprised when I saw that sphinx’s face.

It was the face of the Lion Queen, Sekhmetra.

Her current figure made her look more like a lion than a human.

This might be her true form.

「So you come too eh, Sekhmetra?!」

The Serpent Queen spoke with a surprised face.

「I came in a hurry since I received a report that you’re making a move on me! I won’t let you kill my adorable daughter and nephew!」

Sekhmetra in her sphinx form roared.

「I see! But, even you, who once hailed as the Goddess of Slaughter, have also become a coward who got her fangs pulled out by the man from Elios! Don’t think you can defeat me!」

The Serpent Queen replied quickly.

「Are you sure, Diadona? Though I have no idea why the Dark Knight came to save them, if I help him along with the other Elios Goddesses, I don’t think you’ll come out unscathed either. Don’t you think that both sides retreating peacefully is the best outcome here?」

Diadona couldn’t help but ponder Sekhmetra’s suggestion.

「Sure enough. Fine then, we’re going to pull back here. EVERYONE RETREAT!」

Diadona shouted.

「What’s the meaning of this, Diadona?!」

And just as I had expected, Zarxis was the one who protested.

「We’re pulling back for now, Zarxis! We can afford to wait a few more years, I’m sure that chance will come!」

Zarxis looked really frustrated upon hearing Diadona’s remark.

「KUH! Got it, Diadona! DARK KNIGHT, WATCH YOUR NECK, FOR THE NEXT TIME WE MEET WILL BE YOUR DEATH!」

Zarxis retreated, albeit reluctantly.

The other Evil Gods also retreated along with Diadona.

It seems everything ended peacefully without having to truly fight.

Nevertheless, I was dead tired.

It seems I didn’t have the making of a spirit user since I couldn’t control Eclipse as well as using my sword.

When I looked up, I saw the spirit of darkness, Eclipse and the spirit of light, Bennu, flying in the sky.

It was a spectacle befitting of this place, the border between Gypseal and Apophis, light and darkness.
