Chapter 447: Start of the Chaos (1)

I was planning to post two chapters today, but I did not manage to finish them. I'll try to post two chapters tomorrow...

...

On the roof of a certain building, a figure in a black coat was looking towards the explosions happening all over Academy City.

"So it finally started, huh." The figure murmured, her voice revealing her identity as a woman.

Nobody could see below the coat, but strangely, countless things seemed to be squirming below it, like monsters waiting to be released.

The woman, however, did not seem bothered by that. She looked at the city calmly before finally taking out a one-handed sword.

" Now, let me see where you rats are hiding." She spoke calmly, but strangely, the air around her distorted.

Killing intent.

A killing intent so heavy and intense that it seemed to twist the air around her.

Wrapped in killing intent, the woman took a step forward as her hood moved slightly back due to the wind, revealing a strand of gray hair.

After another step forward, her figure vanished.

And a few seconds later, screams of agony resounded through the city.

"Has it started?" Another figure in black tilted his head curiously. "Finally, huh."

" Boss, is it alright?" Behind the figure in black, someone asked with a hesitant expression. "I don't like the fact that we are cooperating with the madmen of Returning Dusk."

"I don't like it either, but it doesn't matter as long as we can accomplish our goal."

"But At this rate, Academy City will suffer too much damage. Many innocents will die."

"You don't understand." The figure in black shook his head. "Academy City is destined to be destroyed, sooner or later. Now that the times are changing, there is no more place for this city in this world. As for the people that die in the process? They are necessary sacrifices for the changing times."

"Sacrifices, huh."

"Stop thinking about things that don't concern you. Get ready to move. We can't fail this time."

At the rooftop of the Great Library, Wave Golden, Headmistress of Academy City, was looking towards the explosions with an ugly expression.

"These bastards!"

"Calm down, Wave." Eve, who was hovering beside her, spoke up calmly. "We were already expecting this. Even if you are angry, you must remain calm. Only that way we can kill the people behind this."

"... I know. Lend me a hand, Eve. I don't want any of them to survive today."

"Leave it to me."

"Hahahahaha, this is it. I missed the screams, the blood, the pain!"

With a crazy expression, an average-looking man extended his hand as people were slaughtered around him.

Students were attacked, teachers were killed, and houses were burned down.

The culprits? People in white killing people indiscriminately.

"Yes, yes, it's how it should be. Come on, my brothers and sisters, teach these infidels the grace of our god!

"Kill, ****, burn. Bring this world back to how it should be, where the strong rule the weak, and lives are forged in blood and fire.

"It's our purpose. Our goal as the hands of our god on the earth."

"As for me, I'll find that what my god wants and bring it to him."

Smiling, he looked in a certain direction.

Then, his body rose in the air before flying towards there.

"... Regina Norman This time, I will make sure to get a taste of your blood."

As soon as the explosions happened, Bloed's expression changed.

"Explosions!? What"

"Finally, it has started!" Anna smiled sweetly with a bloodthirsty expression. "I guess I can finally stop containing myself, huh."

Bloed's face turned ugly.

"You Are you related to this?"

"What do you think?" Anna grinned. "However, you should not worry about me now."

As soon as her words finished, Bloed's expression changed.

All of sudden, he felt a powerful pressure and killing intent locked on him.

It was a killing intent so strong that his entire body turned cold. He felt as though he was seeing death eye to eye.

Moreover, it was so close that he could do nothing but watch how death approached him.

-In the shape of the hand of the demigod arbitrating the battle.

Watching the hand of the demigod reaching towards his neck, Bloed's eyes opened wide in disbelief.

But to the demigod's surprise, Bloed's expression showed only disbelief, nothing more.

There was no trace of the fear and despair that someone facing death should feel.

And soon, he understood the reason.

Before his hand could reach Bloed's neck, a silver-haired figure appeared in front of him.

"How do you dare!?" Enraged, Regina swung a blade of energy towards the demigod!

'Fast!' The demigod was astonished. He had attacked by surprise and was much closer to Bloed than Regina, but despite that, the silver-haired Valkyrie managed to protect Bloed before his hand could reach him.

"Die!" Regina bellowed, and his blade of energy cut towards the demigod's neck.

But the demigod was also a powerful powerhouse. Despite his surprise, he was not intimidated.

With a thought, his body was filled with mana as flames surged around his arm and blocked Regina's saber.

However

*Slash!*

"!!!"

Regina's blade cut him!

The demigod's eyes opened wide in fear. Without hesitating, he jumped back, moving away from Regina as quickly as he could.

But despite that, a great injury had appeared from his hand to his elbow!

If he would have not jumped back, he would have lost his arm!

The cut had been burned by Regina's energy, making it impossible for the demigod to heal it quickly. In fact, there was a chance that his arm would never recover.

Even so, Regina was not satisfied yet.

"Where do you think you are going!?"

With a voice so chilly that seemed to freeze the surroundings, the Valkyrie moved again.

Her blade of energy cut through the air so quickly that the demigod found it hard to react to it. He barely managed to cast a barrier that blocked the strike.

But before he could sigh in relief, the barrier broke, and Regina's second strike was coming!

This attack was even stronger and faster than the first! It was so powerful that the demigod's eyes could only widen in terror!

But when he thought that his body would be cut into two, someone descended from the sky.

"Here you are!"

With a crazy expression, an average-looking man descended towards Regina, conjuring a gigantic monster from his shadow that attacked the Valkyrie.

"You again!" Regina's voice distorted in anger. "How do you dare to plot against my master again!?"

"Your master? I don't know who he is. I'm only here to get something."

Regina frowned, and down on the stage, Bloed's expression changed.

"It can't be," Bloed muttered.

"It looks like you finally realized, Mr. Bloed," Anna smirked seductively.

Instantly, tens of people jumped from the stands towards Bloed's group.

Some of them had been spectating the previous battles, others were students of Anna's club, and others were people just passing by.

But now, all of them were rushing towards Bloed's friend.

No, they were rushing towards Princess Elwha.

Grinning sinisterly, Anna took a step forward to block Bloed.

"We only want something, Mr. Bloed. We are here for the Heart of the Forest."
