The notification sound echoed inside Isaac’s head.

Isaac floated in black armor. An aura of darkness radiated out. He could float in the air thanks to the effect of the wind magic released by Black Jade.

“Ah, I didn’t expect to use Dark Fate in a situation like this,” he muttered.

He had no plans to reveal his trump card earlier, but under these urgent conditions, like it or not, Isaac had to use Dark Fate. Or else his efforts would be in vain.

From behind, Alyna called out to Isaac in a whispered tone.

“Wow, so you bought the Dark Fate. Damn, why didn’t you say anything?”

Aries who heard their conversation, his eyes opened wide. He was quite surprised at the fact that the winner of the Dark Fate at the auction was Isaac. He did not expect that a baron would own such a powerful armor set.

Isaac sighed. “We can discuss this later. We don’t have much.”

“Well, with the three of us now. Especially with you using Dark Fate, we can defeat him quickly.”

“No,” Isaac snapped. “We’re not going to fight him. We’re going to get out of this damn place.”

Of course, the duchess was upset at Isaac’s words. With Dark Fate, their chances of winning against Gavin were higher. It was wasting an opportunity that was right in front of their eyes.

“We can win. Are you afraid?”

“It’s not afraid, Lady Alyna,” Aries interjected into their conversation. “Fighting a battle that cannot possibly be won is foolish. A legendary artifact, such as Dark Fate, must have limits to its use. Gavin can’t possibly be defeated in a few minutes. Even if we could, remember we’re outnumbered. Not to mention that we’re badly injured. Our goal is to win the game, not the battle.”

Hearing the explanation from Earl Aries, the redhed woman finally silence. Although inwardly she was upset.

“Did you hear that?” Isaac quipped in a soft tone. Thanks to Aries, he no longer needed to give an explanation to that stubborn woman.

Duchess Alyna simply clucked her tongue.

“Now, leave everything to me,” he said.

Floating in the air, Gavin seemed to furrow his brows. A curious look was written on his face. The duke pointed the sword at Isaac.

​ “Who are you? How dare you meddle in my business.”

No answer came from Isaac’s mouth. He raised his sword into the air, then a vortex of wind appeared.

The wind rustled, creating a vortex within a vortex. Gavin’s skin that was hit by the gusts of wind was like being cut by a knife. At that moment, the duke quickly released a dense aura in his body. The aura wrapped around him.

Not long after, Isaac swung his sword, a wind blade darted quickly towards Gavin. The silver-haired demon dodged it.

Slash!

The first blade was coming, he blocked it.

Slash!

Gavin dodged the second wind blade.

Slash!

However, Isaac did not stop there, he continued to pull out dozens of wind blades.

The wind blades charged at Gavin.

“Is this all you’ve got?”

The duke weaved through the air like a kite, passing every wind blades that tried to take his life. Some of them he deflected. A few were hit, but Gavin did not suffer any significant damages. The dense aura wrapped around his body absorbed the wind blades.

“If this is the all of your power, you’ll regret it!”

The black wings behind the duke’s back spread. After that he darted towards Isaac like an eagle.

Of course, Isaac did not stay still. The wind enveloped his sword, creating a small typhoon.

Aries looked tense as Gavin darted towards them. The duchess, on the other hand, was smiling broadly as she gripped her scythe tightly. She was ready for the second battle. Her body recovered after downing the potion given by Aries.

“Lord Isaac! Hurry up and do something! He’s coming!” Aries exclaimed.

“Let him come.” Alyna replied to her companion.

Aries was certainly not happy to hear the duchess’s words. While Isaac didn’t answer, he just stayed silent, focusing all the mana in his body on Jade Black.

The Gavin was only ten meters in front of them.

“Lord Isaac!” exclaimed Aries.

“Bring it on!” Alyna screamed in full fervor.

“Die!” Gavin shouted with his sword in hand. A dense aura wrapped around the duke’s sword.

At that moment, Isaac opened his eyes and immediately slashed his sword with full power.

“Hyaaa!”

Swoooooosh!

A giant typhoon rushed towards Gavin. The duke opened his eyes wide, he immediately canceled to attack Isaac and changed to a defensive position. A pitch-black aura enveloped his body. After that, the typhoon devoured him.

Dhumb! Dhumb! Bam!

The typhoon raged. The antfolk were swept away. The wind not only blew them away, but also riped them up. The Kaies who were at the back of the line to protect the Queen panicked.

“Everyone! Protect the Queen! Protect the Queen!”

The antfolk warriors quickly swarmed towards the Queen. Some of them were still frozen from witnessing the ferocity of the typhoon.

“Fools! Quickly gather! Go back, protect the Queen!” Kaies shouted at her personnel who were still frozen.

However, they did not respond.

“You moron dogshit.”

Eventually, the typhoon devoured them.

A huge deadly vortex of wind came carrying thousands of flying antfolk warriors. They screamed, but the noise of the wind drowned out their fear.

Queen Kaileena looked shocked. Her face was so pale as she witnessed a natural disaster that she had never seen before.

In that moment she realized that it was all over.

“No way… My kingdom…”

The demons who were busy slaughtering the antfolk quickly cast protection spells. Some of them quickly left the tower by jump from perforated walls.

Within seconds, all the creatures in the hall were swept away by the typhoon until there was nothing left. The wind continued to rage, destroying the tower.

From the outside, a quarter of the tower collapsed like a crumbling castle.

The Ant Kingdom that stood strong for hundreds of years, it finally came to an end today.

.

.

.

Thump.

Isaac collapsed in the middle of the forest. His head ached as the notification beeps rang in his head.

[You leveled up]

[You leveled up]

[You leveled up]

[The use of Dark Fate has exceeded the limit. Remove it immediately or the effects of the curse will overwhelm the user.]

“Damn it!”

The demon quickly accessed the system, then removed Dark Fate. The black armor wrapped around his body disappeared. The notification beeps in his head finally stopped.

A sigh escaped Isaac’s mouth.

“I didn’t expect to use this much mana.”

There was almost no mana left in Isaac’s body. He put all his energy and mana into fighting Gavin. In other words, he was all out.

“Making three typhoons at once is not a good idea.”

A bottle filled with blue liquid flew towards him. Isaac caught it.

It was an ether.

“Drink it. You need it badly.”

A feminine voice sounded in his ear. Then a red-haired woman stood over Isaac with a smile on her face.

“Look, you’re really messy.” Alyan quipped.

Downing ether, Isaac ignored the red-haired woman. But he was grateful for the mana-restoring liquid. His body felt light again.

“Thank you, Alya,” Isaac said.

The duchess extended her arm, Isaac took it and she helped him up.

“Not only did you perform admirably, but you also saved us. Although I would have preferred to fight against him.”

“Yeah, then you’re dead for sure,” Isaac replied curtly.

The duchess glared. She then punched Isaac in the shoulder. “Hey! What do you think I am? I’m a duke. I could have won the fight without you having to interfere. I also haven’t forgiven you for leaving me in the moles’ lair.”

“What Lord Isaac said is true. We’re at a disadvantage. We’ll die if Lord Isaac doesn’t help us.”

A wet hoarse voice sounded in the middle of their conversation.

Alyna turned around in annoyance. She saw Aries sitting limply under a tree. He was quite pale.

Seeing the goat-headed demon’s condition, Alyna undid her intention to yell at Aries.

“What’s more. We lost one demon. Amon. He’s gone.”

Aries lowered his head.

The duchess who heard him quickly put on a haggard face.

“Huh, so he’s dead?” muttered Alyna.

Just as the atmosphere became sad, a man in tattered clothes appeared before them.

“Who said I was dead! I’m still alive!”
