Chapter 400: Lightning assassination (II)

The young man with tattoos was at the 4th Engraving Stage, and his battle power was undoubtedly higher due to his talent and laws. Unfortunately, unlike those who live in Abyss and learn never to let their guard down, he was full of openings and stunned by Ezequiel's actions.

Death became clearer every instant, and a hand full of white lightning reached for his head. He could not mobilize his energy or Soul Origin in time to protect himself and was bound to die.

However, he was not alone. Shikra intervened immediately, and with the might of a Rank 6 life form, fired a frozen palm aimed at Ezequiel's body.

The Frost Monster Heart's leader was afraid of killing Zatiel Daybreak's right-hand man, so she controlled her attack so that Ezequiel could save himself if he backed down.

In Shikra's mind, there was no way the man in front of her would dare to continue his attack now.

Unfortunately, she did not know the commitment that Ezequiel Entropy Regiis Unus Invictus put in every task he started.

The Supreme Neo-Demon gathered Primordial Entropy Lightning in his palm and managed to lay a finger in the man's head before a small palm landed on his shoulder and sent him flying away like a cannonball. 

As that happened, thousands of thoughts and plans crossed the mind of every leader present. They wondered which side to be on in this conflict.

The first ones to react were two brothers. The moment Shikra's attack landed on Ezequiel, Gabriel and Dean glanced at each other before nodding and making their energy explode.

The Second Prince's body began to tremble as space-time fluctuated around him. The next second, a teenager and a middle-aged man appeared by his side.

They shared a striking resemblance to the Second Prince, and even their soul aura was the same. 

The moment they appeared, a connection formed between Gabriel and the duo. Their aura became one, and their power rose to the level he surpassed some of the weak great organizations' leaders.

Space and time shattered around the First Prince's body as his soul unleashed a force that could seal and annihilate everything.

Even the strongest people adopted a solemn expression and mobilized their energy as they saw all matter collapse around the First Prince.

Dean Rebellion's aura reached the absolute peak of Rank 6 as a black hole formed around him!

Shikra did not dare to chase after Ezequiel when she felt the First Prince's murdering gaze looming over her.

Ezequiel was able to regain control over his body after being pushed more than three thousand kilometers. The Scientia Kingdom's princes flanked him immediately, ensuring no one dared to get close to him.

The Supreme Neo-Demon did not have time to thank the brothers since he needed to handle his injuries. That palm strike shattered every bone around his shoulder and almost made his left arm explode along with a large part of his chest.

The worst part was not the physical damage but the energy that had invaded his body when Shikra's palm touched him. It was freezing his organs, and it seemed to head for his soul dimension.

Dean perceived the Water Essence's force inside Ezequiel's body and was about to act when this one roared.

"ROAR!" Along with that roar, white lightning overflowed the Supreme Neo-Demon's body, collapsing the foreign force into entropy and devouring it. 

Ezequiel coughed a mouthful of black blood, but a smile appeared on his face as he straightened his body and stared at Shikra. 

The reason for his smile was that he felt his comprehension over the Law of Water improve a little after the Primordial Entropy Lightning devoured the Water Essence's force.

Everybody displayed shock as they saw the Supreme Neo-Demon. They detected Rank 4's soul force during the altercation and could not believe that he survived a Rank 6 strike with that cultivation. The impact only grew when they saw Ezequiel take care of the Law Essence's force.

'So this is the strength of Soul Law Domain. The difference between Peak Rank 5 and Rank 6 is certainly great.' The Supreme Neo-Demon regulated his breathing as he looked at Dean and Gabriel before giving a thankful nod. 

Shikra's eyes were full of conflicted feelings. She did not want to offend such a monstrous talent like Ezequiel, especially since there was no way she could kill him with the First Prince by his side. 

However, if she did nothing, she would become the laughing stock of the Magi World, and her position as the Frost Monster Heart's leader would be in danger. 

The Magus took a deep breath and used the strength of her soul to calm her feelings and figure out the best path forward. 

"Ezequiel Invictus, your actions are a great offense to Frost Monster Heart and every Magus here, who put aside their personal feelings, keeping the peace as we waited for Lord Ivar. I demand you gave us an explanation for you attempting murder."

The great organizations' leaders showed different expressions when they saw Shikra ganging them together when she mentioned Ezequiel's offense. 

Although some of them sneered at her, they remained silent since she was partially correct. There was bad blood between many organizations, but none of them acted due to their tactical agreement. 

Ezequiel's eyes became devoid of any emotion as he stared at Shikra and all the other great organizations' leaders.

"Why the hell would I let your decisions guide my actions? If I want to kill someone, I will do it, even if that meant insulting every single one of you."

Everybody felt the Supreme Neo-Demon absolute lack of respect, and many displayed anger. However, none dared to do anything when one of the strongest men in the Magi World was by his side. 

Ezequiel truly felt no respect for any of them. In his mind, he did not need to show reverence to someone who he could kill in less than one hundred years and who could not erase his existence, no matter what they do.

The only ones he appreciated were the King and brothers of the Scientia Kingdom. He respected them not for their mighty strength but for the friendship they showed to him. 

Silence reigned for a few seconds until a calm and gentle expression appeared on Ezequiel's face.

"Since we are civilized people and to prove I am not a mindless demon which kills people for fun, I will give you a reason for my actions. That man showed hatred when he saw me, and it did not target my person but my kind. I will kill anyone who even thinks of harming my people, no matter who they are." Ezequiel's unleashed a slaughter intent that came from the deepest part of his soul as he spoke those words, but the gentle expression on his face did not go away.

For the Supreme Neo-Demon, there was no higher calling than protecting the Neo-Demon race. He would not hesitate to detonate his existence to ensure the safety of the people he considered family.

When the great organizations' leaders saw the devotion in that supreme genius's eyes, they understood that the Daybreak Clan doesn't have only one monster protecting it. 

"Oh, and by the way. I did not perform an attempting murder."

Shikra felt her heart grow cold when she heard that and saw the viciousness in Ezequiel's eyes. She turned around and focused on the tattooed man.

The man seemed perfectly fine. Without a single injury on him, but there was something odd. He remained quiet all this time and with a blank stare.

The Rank 6 Magus' consciousness detected the energy running through his body and how his brain kept sending some primary signals that kept him in the air.

However, there was no soul dimension in him. White lightning destroyed it, along with everything inside.

The rest of the leaders also detected the state of the tattooed man's soul dimension, and they all looked at Ezequiel with amazement. In that fraction of a second when his finger touched the man's head, he used a form of lightning that surpassed every spiritual defense and silently killed him. 

While the mighty Soul Law Domains showed admiration for the Supreme Neo-Demon, the way they looked at Shikra was full of mockery.

The humiliation the Frost Monster Heart's leader felt at this moment was immense. The wrath that came with it reached levels that almost made her go ballistic. 

Just as things were about to scale, they heard a voice that took control of every law and force in the Magi World.

"Have you all finish playing around."
