Hero of Darkness

chapter-824-30041322
Atreus was surrounded by all of the 4 disciples of Romulus that have been training under him for decades at this point. The purpose of this bout was very simple but significant.
To set the Hierarchy.
Kahn had his Survival Instinct blessing on high alert as well as Hunter's Domain activated from the get-go. Now, 40 kilometers of this pocket dimension was no different than a hand-drawn map for him where he could detect, feel and predict even the most minute details.
BOOM!
This time, a dreary and terrifying dark blue aura erupted from his body as he activated War Dominance aura infused with his Water and Ice element, sending shivers in the bodies of his opponents.With this blessing raising the quality of his oppressive aura by 5 times, everyone else was instantly on alert mode because now, Atreus' aura resembled that of a peak 4th stage saint who was about to break through to 5th stage saint rank very soon.
But what terrified them more was somehow… They felt that the blue wolfkin's bloodline was suppressing their bodies to a great extent as if their own bloodline was bowing in front of the majesty of the one displayed by Atreus.
What they didn't know was that Atreus aka Kahn had 70% of the Godbeast Fenrir bloodline. 3 times purer and denser than their own.
In a way… They were akin to commoners in the presence of Royalty.
This made Atreus look like a terrifying monster and broke their confidence to fight him head-on from the get-go.
[We have to be cautious. This guy is definitely very strong despite his rank.
Even my body is shivering and my mind feels reluctant to attack him.] said Dorian to the other disciples through a telepathic communication artifact in the form of an earpiece.[What is this freak?! How can his bloodline suppress all of us at once?
Where did the master even find him? He's definitely not some commoner or even from the clans under our tribe.
If I'm not wrong… he must be from one of the True Descendants families like our master.] replied Juno as two glowing blue orbs appeared in her hands.
[The way his body is built and those runes over his chest and arms… They're definitely related by blood.
Is he master's hidden son or something?] said Mephisto, the mage.
[Who cares? We just have to beat him to death since he was so arrogant to challenge all of us at once.
Boy am I going to take my sweet time torturing him. He he!] responded Ivaar, the assassin with a psychotic expression.
[All right! Since he isn't any weaker… Let's fight him seriously from the start. He isn't going to be fazed by our basic skills.
Is everyone on the same page?] he questioned his fellow disciples.
This entire conversation took only 3 seconds in real-time and all the disciples nodded.
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOM!
4 different auras suddenly erupted from all four directions as the white wolfkins also released their saint pressures.
Dorian released a blinding white aura infused with Light Element.
Juno released a flickering and erratic light blue aura with Lightning Element.
Ivaar revealed a green Wood elemental aura as if he was one with nature itself.
And finally, Mephisto revealed 5 different auras, displaying his mastery and control over five different elements as an elemental magician.
A Light Swordsman, Lightning Enchantress, Wood elemental Assassin and an Elemental Mage… all of them surrounded a Water & Ice elemental Brawler warrior.
Inside the underground facility, Romulus and Priscilla watched this scene on a holographic screen displayed by an artifact placed on the platform from where the disciples entered the pocket dimension.
"Isn't he too arrogant? Not only he challenged them all at once, but he also revealed his full strength from the start." said the white wolfkin 5th stage saintess.
"Besides… Why does his bloodline feel purer and denser than all of us?
I thought he was somehow related to you. But his bloodline is even purer than yours; who has the highest purity among all of us." he queried with a confused countenance.
Romulus on the other end shook his head after hearing his wife's words.
"That's not the case. We aren't related in the slightest.
All I can tell you is that I took him in for reasons I can't explain to you, not now and not ever.
As for this battle…" the red wolfkin with a massive and ripped body gazed at the screen with an incredulous expression.
Inside the battle arena…
[Begin the Hybrid Formation!] commanded Dorian.
Crackle!
Crackle!
Thousands of vines suddenly arose from the ground below and quickly surrounded Atreus in a square-shaped 2 kilometers wide region as if forming a cage as Ivaar used his skills.
Rumble!
Rumble!
The sky rumbled as dark clouds suddenly appeared in the sky and lightning ran amok the clouds as Juno started harnessing them to create her attack skills.
Shing!
Shing!
Dozens of multicolored runes carrying different elements appeared in all 4 directions and soon formed a net of magic formations, the caster being none other than Mephisto.
Clink!
Clink!
And finally, 4 ginormous stark white swords, emanating a holy aura suddenly appeared in the sky as Dorian activated one of his killer moves.
Just from this battle formation alone, one could tell that they were treating this battle seriously and didn't plan to give Atreus any chance to resist or escape from their attacks at all.
Atreus on the other end took notice of the swordsman and the enchantress first.
Although he was greatly resistant to most of the elements, the only two weaknesses he had were the Light and Lightning elements. Thus, Dorian and Juno were the biggest threats in this battle.
Bang!
Massive beams of elemental attacks shot towards the blue wolfkin from all directions.
Whoosh!
Atreus used Quicksilver and appeared 500 meters away within half a second.
But suddenly…
Clang!
He turned and used Beowolf gauntlets to block an attack from behind as Ivaar suddenly appeared out of thin air, trying to aim at his neck.
But the latter suddenly disappeared again.
Crackle!
BOOM!
A massive lightning strike from the sky suddenly shot at Atreus as Juno was surrounded by lightning bolts as if a deity descending from the sky.
Atreus quickly appeared one kilometer on left but before he could react…
Slash!
The light elemental sword slashed at his position.
Bang!!
A massive explosion shook the surroundings as Atreus was hit by the 500-meter-long sword.
His fate unknown to everyone.
