Chapter 289 Need A Hand? (2)
Upon seeing their master getting attacked, Ashton's summons immediately lashed out. No one shall be allowed to treat their master in this manner. However, their skills could not back up their will. Their intentions were good, but even the Xyran foot soldiers were too strong for them.
It didn't even take a couple of seconds for them to subdue the summons. If Ashton's summons were this weak against the Xyrans, then there was no hope for the rest of them.
"Let's strike a deal, shall we?" Beelzebub was getting frustrated now, "For every second of my time you waste, I'll kill one of your people at random. So you either tell me where you-"
"I already told you!" Ashton gave up, "I found it in a forest about 700 kilometres south from here. Inside the forest, there's a hatch, it will lead you to a secret room. I found this stone inside that room. But we have to be careful... are you ready yet I'm running out of shit to say!"
"I'm on it!" Anna yelled back.
Suddenly a shockwave ran throughout the city. Anna, who had been hiding till now revealed herself, and so did the power of succubus. The shockwave was an aftereffect of her third ability. The ability Astaroth had been hiding till now... [Dream Imprisonment].
In other words, the power to trap others inside dreams. Upon activation, the user can create a false reality or illusion in the form of dreams and trap others inside either the user's or the target's dreams or nightmares. The target's body may stay awake while their mind is trapped or it may disappear into the dream as well.

It was a dangerous skill that could affect countless people if not used properly. Hell, it could also kill the targets if the user wished to do so. However, since Anna's control over the skill wasn't perfect and the skill's grade was low for now.
On top of that, the Xyrans had high resistance to psychic attacks. Therefore, killing the Xyrans using this skill was going to be impossible.
However, it would have been enough to throw them off-guard. While Ashton made quick work of them. This was the plan Astaroth came up with in case shit went south real fast, just like they did now.
[This is your chance. I hope you know what you are doing.]
'I gotta fight. It doesn't matter whether I do it or not, these assholes will kill everyone if I did nothing.'
Rather than sending the Xyrans into a dream of some sort, Anna's skill only managed to dispatch them into a trance. They were confused, but the people of Livan were quick to use it to their advantage.
The residents charged in on them from both sides. They knew killing Xyrans wasn't possible for them, especially with the weapons they were carrying. They needed better weapons and they had those right in front of them.

"Come on!" Sheera charged first, snatching the gun from the soldier nearest to her and open fired.
The rest followed her lead and did the same. Even the few Giholos that were alive decided to join in. The Xyrans might have been a god-like existence that dominated the galaxy. But that wasn't going to stop them from avenging their comrades.
The tides of the battle had turned in their favour... momentarily. The earthlings might have managed to kill a few of them. But the only thing they accomplished was signing their suicide notes.
A moment later, the Xyran ships assaulted the people on the surface using a variety of weapons. They killed a hundred Xyrans, but the Xyrans killed thousands of them. Once again, their morale broke.
"There was an attempt..." Beelzebub smirked before kicking Ashton away, "I gave you insects an opportunity and you denied it. I'll find out where you found that stone myself, once I rip it off your filthy hands."
Ashton spat a mouthful of blood before glaring at the Xyran. For the first time in his life, Ashton wasn't thinking about winning a fight but stalling for time. He wasn't deluded enough to think we could win against someone who brought his HP down by 14% with a single strike.
All he wanted to do was to take Beelzebub's attention away from his soldiers so that Anna could work her magic of lust once again. No matter how strong the guy in front of him was, even he wouldn't be able to win against his own army.
On top of that, if his own soldiers attacked him, the ships would think twice before obliterating them. That would give the residents enough time to escape from the hell hole.
"Bullying a lower civilization, that's all you can do." Ashton smirked, "But believe me when I say, this planet is going to be the graveyard of you and your soldiers."
It was an obvious taunt. Beelzebub wasn't someone who would fall for such petty taunting.
[Since you won't swap with me. At least say what I tell you to.]
'Fine.'
"Honestly kid, I took pity on you. Seeing you probably didn't even have the chance to spread your useless genes around this dumpster of a planet. But Now I think, It's better to end you before you do anything of such sort-"
"At least I didn't stab a friend in the back as you did."
As soon as those words fell on Beelzebub's ears, he stopped moving. His eyes turned even colder than before as he stared daggers at Ashton.
"How do you know that? How do you know anything about me?" Beelzebub snarled, his cool and levelheaded demeanour was long lost.
"I used to have an admin who told me everything about you and the way you stabbed your friends in the back just so you could bang one of their women." Ashton kept egging on, "Quite shameless of you to be honest. But well, what else can someone expect from a petty bastard like yourself."
Beelzebub had heard enough. He wasn't going to let a maggot talk crap about him in front of his soldiers. He wanted to know who was the fucker that told all this to an inferior species. But he had a rough idea of who it could have been.
It had to be Lucifer. He was the only one who knew what Beelzebub did to Astaroth and since he was working in the sector this planet belonged to, it would make sense how the maggot in front of him was aware of this information. This also meant... this brat would know what happened to Astaroth who stole Seraph's Crystal before fleeing away.
"Now... DIE!"
Beelzebub didn't hold back and threw a punch at the earthling with all his strength. His attacks were relentless, as he kept pounding the kid until he was reduced to nothing but dust. Or so he thought.
Once the dust settled down, Beelzebub was shocked to see there wasn't a single scratch on the boy. His armour was destroyed, but otherwise, he was fine. This couldn't be possible! Beelzebub's attacks should have been sufficient to destroy even a grade B being, and yet this grade E bastard was laying there smiling at him?
"No, you."
That's all Ashton said before punching the Xyran right in the chest. The alien was sent flying. Everyone who saw it was left dumbfounded. How could a mere grade E bastard kick Beelzebub's ass like this? After all, their leader was a Grade A being! It didn't make any sense!

Ashton was right on time in rearranging his stats. Beelzebub flew back faster than he had flown away and decide to end Ashton's life once and for all. However, the brat was faster than he had thought. It was damn near impossible to catch him. Let alone attack him.
"You annoying little pest!" Beelzebub yelled at the top of his lungs.
Ashton's attack not only reduced his HP, but also made the right part of his torso useless. Beelzebub felt humiliated just by thinking how an insolent fool, gave him a previous wound. If the upper echelon got to know about it, he could kiss his reputation goodbye.
Everything he had worked so hard for would be taken away from him in an instant. The only thing which could save his reputation was the Seraph's Crystal. If he could retrieve the prized possession of the Xyrans, the council might be willing to overlook his 'Incompetence'.
"Stop running away and fight me!"
"Are all the Xyrans equally dumb? Or are you a special case or something?" Ashton taunted the already Berserking Xyran.
It didn't even take a couple of seconds for them to subdue the summons. If Ashton's summons were this weak against the Xyrans, then there was no hope for the rest of them.
"Let's strike a deal, shall we?" Beelzebub was getting frustrated now, "For every second of my time you waste, I'll kill one of your people at random. So you either tell me where you-"
