Chapter 101 - Weak Mortals
Nero activated his God's eyes and scanned the entire area. He aimed his open hand at the ground and closed it by forming a fist— as though he was trying to grasp something. Then, he raised his other hand and formed a fist that emitted blue fire.
BOOM!
With a loud boom, Nero launched himself down and punched the ground. Cracks appeared all over the ground as the wall broke and fell on the outer side.
The ground erupted blue fire and turned everyone into ashes— but not the women and the girls and boys.
Females and virgin boys had a contrasting physique, so when Nero used his God's eyes, he was able to differentiate males and females as well as boys.
Before Nero punched the ground and erupted it into the blue fire, he made a barrier around them so it didn't affect them.
Nero recently learned this technique when he was training Emilia in the capital, and it was risky to pull a move like that since he had never tried this technique before in such a vast proportion. But he was confident of his skills as his powers had never betrayed him.
Nero could only summon the clothes on his body when his magic was in contact with his body. And since Nero could control anything within his magic, he could easily conjure clothes for everyone in the barrier.
Nero stood in the blue fire and uttered in a loud voice, "Get out of here!"
The women took their sons and daughters and ran out of the palace. The fire was still erupting from the ground, and the cracks were spreading all around the area.
The soldiers who tried to step in the blue fire were obliterated into ashes, while the women and the children could easily pass through it.
By the time the fire was extinguished, all the women and children had escaped the palace.
Now Nero could go all out with no worries of holding back.
Hundreds of soldiers dashed at Nero with different types of weapons. Some were holding shields, some were holding swords, some were holding spears, and some were holding axes.
Shield and spears users were in the frontline and swords users behind them. Between them, some were magic users who were buffing the soldiers and pushing their limits to the maximum.
Some were healers who were ready to heal the injured soldiers, and some were offense-type magic users who had already started firing fireballs and all other types of magic attacks. While defense-type magic users were casting magic shields and barriers around the soldiers.
But, everything was useless and futile in the presence of Nero.
Nero dashed at the soldiers and cleaved all of them— without even touching them.
More soldiers kept coming, and Nero kept killing them.
He started throwing and smashing the soldiers around. He picked up one soldier and ripped him with his hands. Then grabbed another one and threw him at the huge golden-colored king's statue in the middle of the palace.
"Hmm! Let's try some graffiti, shall we?"
Nero stood at one spot and waited for the soldiers to approach him, and when they came, Nero just smashed them at the statue.
He tossed and flung the soldiers at the golden statue and dyed it red. He was tossing them so hard that the statue started cracking with repetitive impact.
After smashing hundreds of soldiers at the statue, it was dyed entirely red. Nero flung one more soldier at the throne on top of the statue, but he ended up slamming into the sword's hilt.
"That's 666 soldiers. But since the king is a coward, and this is the main capital, he must have an army of over fifty thousand soldiers— in the least."
Nero waited for more soldiers to come and attack him. He was fighting with only his physical strength, and he didn't even need to use his magic or arts.
"They are disappointing, to be honest," he muttered.
More soldiers appeared in front of Nero. But they were sturdy build and wearing different armor than the soldiers Nero killed up until now.
"Let's hope you are worthy of my time."
The soldiers surrounded Nero from all sides and pointed their swords out through the shields.
They kept moving forward and encircled Nero as the distance got shorter and shorter. They were trying to crush and pierce Nero without any effort.
When they were about a meter away from Nero, Nero raised his fist and punched the ground.
"669!"
All the soldiers fell by the quake, and some even died because of cross stabbing. But some stood up again and dashed at Nero, and Nero just tossed them at the statue.
"696!"
After some more tossing, the state eventually broke, and the massive sword fell to the ground— crushing some of the soldiers.
"I just want to snap and smite everyone, but then I wouldn't be able to give the death that shitty king deserves."
Nero cracked his fists and waited for more soldiers to come at him. However, Nero grew impatient as they were taking too long, and most of them were afraid to go near Nero, so he walked to them instead.
As he was walking towards them, his gaze fell on the sword again.
'What is this feeling?'
Nero started to feel hollow from the inside. He frowned his face and squinted his eyes at the sword.
"Don't tell… me."
The sword began to crack and revealed a massive real sword. Nero chuckled with a distant smile on his face and picked up the sword.
As soon as Nero touched the sword, its size automatically decreased, and it turned into a sword with two tips. One was straight, and the other one was curved.
"Long time no see, Harpe."
This was the mythological weapon Nero last wielded before he was sealed.
"What a lucky day it is."
Not only was Nero about to find and kill Darius soon, but he also found one of his weapons.
"Although I am pissed that it was used as a decoration." He frowned his face and continued, "And what worse is it was being held but the statue of that shit."
