MMORPG: Rebirth of the Mortal Online

Chapter 294: Crazed Angels



The air turned suffocating, as if the oxygen was slowly being drained away.

As the party of eight gazed upon Rawkshawn's large eyes, they saw an unlimited amount of malice and knew they were in grave danger.

"Sepheron, slow him down!" Lionel screamed. "Once he is encased in ice, Mikael, cut him into pieces!"

A half of Sepheron's body turned into ice, and he then swung his ice-clad arm at Rawkshawn, sending a wall of freezing ice hurtling toward him.

"Ice Permafrost!"

Rawkshawn grinned and kicked his right leg up. It looked like an ordinary kick. However, then his big toe and only that touched the incoming wall of ice.

Since he was gigantic, his big toe alone was already big enough as a regular human.

The big toe kick shattered the wall of ice.

It was one of Sepheron's most powerful skills, but Rawkshawn took care of that so easily that it seemed like he was playing games with a child.

"Sun Slasher!" Mikael, even though Sepheron's attack failed, still sent his own attack.

The wave of the sun's burning strength headed in Rawkshawn's direction.

If the cold didn't work, perhaps the heat would!

Rawkshawn opened his large mouth wide and blew a gust of icy wind at the heat wave that was approaching him.

In any ordinary circumstances, there was no way that would work, but Rawkshawn was no ordinary being.

The breath of ice-which was just Rawkshawn's ordinary breath-was so powerful that the heat wave dissipated instantly, leaving the surrounding area feeling chilly and refreshing.

"That's not possible..." Mikael couldn't believe his eyes.

The ground under Oldman cracked, and he then leaped into the air, the banjo already in his

arms.

His fingers moved like possessed spirits, and as they strummed across the banjo's strings, the sound of powerful music echoed throughout this strange world.

The music was powerful, and it seemed like there was an echo of thousand voices harmonizing together.

"Hmm?" Rawkshawn frowned at Oldman.

He didn't know what Oldman was doing, as this was the first time he encountered someone who used music to attack. Thus, he believed that he was just playing music to distract him.

Yet a few blows landed on his face.

Those blows were soft, and he didn't really feel anything.

However, if those blows landed on ordinary humans, they would definitely die.

'Who is punching me?' Rawkshawn felt like some tiny, invisible humans were punching him in the face.

Dozens, hundreds, and even thousands of times.

A rain of blows landed on his face.

However, to Rawkshawn, those blows felt like pillows were landing on his face-soft and gentle, barely even noticeable.

"He didn't even flinch, huh." Oldman frowned.

Mikael frowned, but at that moment, he heard a cough behind him and turned around.

To his surprise, Nerezza was kneeling on the ground, her eyes and nose bleeding furiously. "Nerezza, what the hell happened to you?"

"I..." Nerezza gritted her teeth. "I am using that damn resistance magic on all of you. Don't you feel it?!"

"Feel what?"

"The sickness is coming from that gigantic piece of shit!" Nerezza pointed at Rawkshawn. "He is the source of the sickness. Thus, now that we are close to him, if I stop using resistance even for a second, we will all get sick!"

"So..." Mikael turned to Rawkshawn and gulped. "He is our mission? X-rank my ass; even EX- rank doesn't do this justice."

"W-we can't defeat him!" Nerezza shouted. "I can keep using resistance a little bit longer, but not long enough to have any fighting chance against him. We need to leave!"

"Lionel, you're the leader of the party." Mikael said. "What do you think we should do?"

"I am thinking..." Lionel gazed above Rawkshawn's head and said. "His health bar hasn't shown yet. Why?"

"Huh?" Mikael checked the top of the giant's face and noticed the lack of a health bar. "Yeah... why isn't it showing?"

"It is because he isn't treating this as a fight." Nerezza said with a laugh. "Y'know when Chaosbeings are sleeping or in a relaxed state, their health bars won't show."

"He isn't treating this as a fight..." Mikael gritted his teeth. "We must abandon this mission."

"What about the tutorial's safe room?" Lionel asked. "Without that, what the hell are we going to do about the future recruits? Once they appear in the safe room, they will just die out of sickness immediately."

"I really don't know!" Mikael shouted. "We need to retreat, tell the King what we discovered, and join forces with the Ancient Guild Masters to defeat him!"

"That seems to be the only way." Lionel said, and touched his temple with his index finger.

'Everyone, do you hear me?'

Lionel's voice traversed across everyone's mind. He had telepathic abilities that allowed him to communicate with anyone.

The others nodded their heads briefly.

'We must retreat.

'Adam, you'll stay behind to slow down Rawkshawn. You're the tank, so try to buy us a minute

or two.'

Adam nodded, but he didn't know what the hell he should do to try to stop Rawkshawn. It would be a miracle if he managed to buy them even a second!

'Let's move!'

Without a moment of hesitation, everyone except Adam turned around and started running

away, using the full strength of their transcended bodies.

"Oh, running away?" Rawkshawn grinned and wanted to go after them, but at that moment, a winged young man appeared in front of him, a sword in hand.

"A fake angel. Out of my way!"

The shout created a powerful shockwave that sent Adam flying towards the mist-shroudedn/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

sky, but barely his wings were able to stop his momentum.

However, that shout brought his health down.

'What a monster.' Adam lowered his gaze and saw that Rawkshawn started chasing the party.

With just two large steps, he was able to catch up.

"Fuck, he is fast!" Akuji screamed.

Lionel touched his temple again.

'Adam, hurry!'

"Damn!" Adam descended down like a vulture and appeared above Rawkshawn's head,

bringing his greatsword down.

The greatsword smashed against his black hair, but his hair strands were as sharp as his blade

and managed to block his attack!

'That's just ridiculous.' Adam's eyebrow twitched.

"Go away, fly." Rawkshawn swatted him away, but Adam quickly placed his wings on the way.

However, as Rawkshawn's gigantic hand slammed against his wings, a power like no other sent him flying right away, and he crashed through the ground with a thunderous force.

The ground shook violently.

"Cough!" Adam coughed out blood, and his whole body was aching.

The ground under Rawkshawn shattered as he leaped high into the air. He crashed into the ground some distance away, right in front of the steps that led away from his island.

The party came to a stop as they noticed that Rawkshawn was now the gatekeeper of the

escape route.

There was no other way around.

"Where the hell is Adam?!" Akuji asked in anger.

"There is nothing he could do against Rawkshawn." Mikael said. "None of us can. We are

trapped on this island."

"W-we must hurry!" Nerezza noticed that her blood started to turn black. "I can't hold this resistance much longer!"

"y'know, this brought back some memories." Rawkshawn said with a grin. "I thank all of

you."

...

Millenniums ago.

At the garden of the heavenly palace.

"I'll become a great warrior one day!" A young child said while puffing his chest and threw a

punch with his small fist.

Rawkshawn, as a teenager, caught the fist and laughed. "You must do better than that if you want to become father's angels."

A group of young children in front of him nodded sternly and puffed their chests. There were around eight of them. They circled Rawkshawn like they were eyeing their prey and then launched their attacks at the same time.

Their small, weak fists barely made a dent in Rawkshawn's muscular frame.

"Hahaha," Rawkshawn laughed as those punches tickled him more than anything.

The children kept punching, and punching, but before they could hurt Rawkshawn even

slightest, their fists started aching.

"Ouch..." The children blew into their hands as they had turned numb.

"How can we get as strong as you, Rawk?"

"Train for another thousand years maybe!" Rawkshawn replied with a grin. "I'll accept your

challenge whenever!"

...

"Mm~" Rawkshawn let out a contended laugh. "Yes, this feels very familiar."

Through the destroyed ground, Adam flew through and landed beside the others.

"Tank, my ass." Akuji scoffed at Adam. "You couldn't stop him for even a second?"

"You try and see how fucking easy it is." Adam said. "He treated me as a fucking fly, just someone that buzzes in his ear."

"What should we do?" Lionel asked. "I am honestly out of options here."

"We still try to run away." Mikael said. "Those steps are not big. If we get there, that monster

cannot follow us."

"Hmm?"

At that moment, Rawkshawn gazed up to the sky and smiled. "It looks like they want to have

some fun too."

"?!" Lionel's eyes widened in shock. "Something is coming!"

Everyone turned their gazes to the sky, and through the mist, at first, a couple pale-skinned

creatures flew in.

They had wings made out of feathers and long, thin tails that trailed behind them in the wind.

One, two, three, four, ten, hundred...

Soon, thousands of those winged creatures came through the mist.

"They're my army," Rawkshawn said with a smile. "My Crazed Angels."

Crazed Angels!

"All of their strength..." Lionel gulped. "They're all at the level of Royal Prince!" "That's not even funny at this point." Mikael said out loud in pure desperation. "An army of

thousand Royal Princes..."
