Jael with his gray skin like ashes stood up and glared at them with her bright yellow eyes. His muscular body was so intimidating even though he had lost his wings, but that didnât scare them since the only threat was his wings, or at least that was what they thought.
âWhatâs the plan?â Gunnar asked Agnez.
âFuck plans, we are going to fuck him up until he can no longer stand up. Every cut counts and as long as you make a wound on his body, itâs good enough,â Agnez answered as she stared at Jael. âNo holding back, letâs fucking do this,â Agnez continued as she stared at her sword and it was already in bad condition thanks to clashing with Jaelâs mace.
Jeanne stared at Agnezâs sword, and then she grabbed her other sword and offered it to Agnez. âYou can use mine, so thereâs no need to hold back, right?â Jeanne said.
âItâs nice to have another swordsman on the team,â Agnez replied with a smirk on her face as she grabbed the sword from Jeanneâs hand. âI guess I should start making a spare one for myself,â
Jael started running toward them with his mace up above his head.
âGet ready!â Gunnar yelled as he raised his shield.
Jael slammed his mace on the ground and shattered the ground in front of him. It moved all the way toward them like an avalanche. But then Rozan fixed the ground and stopped the aftereffects of the blow so casually.
âNot on my watch!â Rozan said as he stood right next to Gunnar. âDonât worry, boys. I will take care of the mess, just kill that bastard so we can go home and sleep on our bed,â Rozan continued.
âLetâs go!â Agnez said as she charged toward Jael with Jeanne next to her.
Everyone followed both of them from behind and felt so confident with how confident those two were.
Gunnar slowly caught up with those two and started running in front of them as he screamed his lungs out. He had been training and increasing his running speed for this kind of moment, and it paid off.
Jael started slamming the mace to the ground over and over to stop them from advancing, but Rozan countered him with ease. He had enough of it, and decided to run toward them with his mace lifted up and swung it around like sweeping the ground.
âI will take care of that, you guys go right ahead when I parried this fucker!â Gunnar said as he ran way ahead of the others.
Gunnar was right on the range, and immediately held his shield with both hands, but to his surprise, he was like a fly who tried to stop a flying basketball. He was thrown so far away, but Rozan pulled him back with wind magic.
âI will handle this, you guys run as fast as you can the moment I block his attack,â Agnez said.
All of them nodded with understanding as they watched Agnez run ahead of them.
Agnez activated [Harmony] and stacked it up with [Demonic Manifestation]. She stood right in front of the coming mace and immediately swung her sword at it. Everyone was shocked when Jael was the one who lost and his mace bounced back. He even got knocked to the side a bit after the impact.
Everyone started running past Agnez and readied their weapons in their hands.
Agnez looked at her sword and it shattered into pieces. She sighed and threw her sword away after she plucked the energy stone from the blade.
âThe mace, I need to take care of that,â Agnez said as she stared at the golden mace in Jaelâs right hand.
Jeanne with her still active [Harmony] ran straight to Jaelâs right foot and swung her sword to create a projectile attack. It cut deep into Jaelâs right shin, but not deep enough as Jeanne expected. Suddenly the cut healed itself very slowly and everyone was surprised that he could regenerate.
âIf he could regenerate, shouldnât we be worried about him regenerating his wings back? We should hurry before he does that,â Sven said.
Although Jael could regenerate his body, the wings were different from the rest of his body. His wings didnât belong to him, they were given to him, so he couldnât regenerate it if he lost his wings and Mazikeen knew about it.
Jeanne didnât bother by it and immediately took a giant leap forward and swung her sword right where the cut was. She screamed her lungs out and cut off Jaelâs right ankle with everything she got.
Jael growled in pain with his deep voice that trembled everyoneâs eardrums.
Jael swung his mace down vertically and Agnez was there to parry his attack. It was enough to make Jael off balance and start tilting his body forward.
Looking at the opportunity, Brynhilde and the others went to Jaelâs left foot and started attacking his heel. They couldnât even penetrate or even cut his skin. The only one who could do it was Asmond thanks to his sword.
Asmond felt proud of himself and immediately activated [Nemesis] on Jael. It made him a lot stronger and started doing the same thing as Jeanne did.
Jael started falling after Asmond cut his left foot, and then he fell on his knees as he growled in pain. Agnez saw the opportunity and jumped as high as she could and then cut Jaelâs right wrist, but it didnât go all the way.
âI got you, Agnez! Finish him!â Rozan said as he lifted Agnez and then started pushing her toward Jaelâs wrist.
Agnez cut his right wrist all the way and landed on top of Jaelâs arm as she watched Jaelâs right hand fall.
âJeanne! Cut his fucking throat with me!â Agnez yelled at Jeanne who was staring at Jaelâs hand.
Both Jeanne and Asmond looked up to look at Agnez, they both then stared at Jaelâs neck was wide open and unprotected. Asmond was the one who made the move and climbed up Jaelâs leg. Jeanne did the same thing and they both were running on Jaelâs back all the way up to his nape.
Jeanne wasnât bothered by Asmond, and she thought it was a good thing he was there because she believed she couldnât cut off Jaelâs head on her own or with only Agnez to help her. She looked at Agnez and nodded her head to signal to her that it was okay to have Asmond with them.
âDo it, Asmond!â Jeanne said.
Listening to Jeanneâs voice saying his name, Asmond felt so overwhelmed because it had been a very long time since she had said his name or even talked to him.
Asmond rushed and jumped all the way to Jaelâs neck. He used all his strength and swung his sword at Jaelâs nape. He almost cut Jaelâs neck on his own, and Jeanne was glad he didnât. She then finished the job by swinging her sword right on top of Jaelâs nape and jumped down to cut his neck.
Jeanne landed at the same time as Jaelâs head hit the ground. His head crushed like porcelain, and it surprised everyone because it was new to them, but they had noticed since he didnât bleed like any demons.
[You have cleared the twentieth floor of Lucifer Tower]
[You are the first to clear the twentieth floor]
[Please enter your name]
[The blue portal to your original world is now open!]
Everyone was screaming in joy the moment they saw the notification. On the other hand, Mykel was bewildered by the notification in front of him that he couldnât believe it.
[A total of [5] [Divine Arcana Chests] and [20] [High-Quality Arcana Chests]are being delivered to [Gehenna: Surface]]
[You have gained 1,000 [Constellation Points] from your donation!]
[You have gained 59,000 [Constellation Points] from your [Recipient(s)] amazing achievement!]
[79,730/100,000 [Constellation Points] to level up your [Authority] to level [3]!]
âDoes that mean I got a thousand Constellation Points on each Recipient that cleared the Lucifer tower?â Mykel said to himself as he chuckled quietly in disbelief. âI made the right decision,â Myke continued as he hid his joy from everyone.
âMykel, how are we going to distribute the chest?â Agnez asked as he approached Mykel.
âTwo divine chests for us. The other three, give one each to Barika, Brynhilde, and Asmond. The rest, let them decide,â Mykel answered as he closed the screens in front of him.
Mykel and Agnez walked to the front and distributed the chests equally, but he took two [Divine Arcana Chest] as he said. Everyone was happy with that and went through the gate since the portal was right in front of the tower.
Nobody went to the portal straight away because they were curious about the tower in front of them. Rozan was the first one to walk on the long bridge toward the tower, and then he fell to his knees as he moaned in fear after he looked down the bridge.
âThis isnât real, right?â Rozan asked as he stared at everyone who stared at him with a puzzled look.
They all approached him and looked at what he saw down there. They were all shocked to the core and petrified by what they saw. The tower they had been staring at wasnât actually the bottom of it. It was just a small part of it.
âSo, this tower is actually just the very tip of the icebergâ¦â Brynhilde said.
Everyone lost their composure as Rozan. They all couldnât believe it when they saw the tower was thousands of times bigger. The tower itself could be compared to how big the earth was if an astronaut looked at the earth from the space station.
âItâs called a Babel Tower, it has a thousand and one floors in it,â Mykel said as he stared down the bridge.
