Chapter 758 Cheisnih’s Defeat and Ellisar’s Unfortunate Fate.

It was now a thing for some Adventurers to record their Dungeon Clears or Monster Stampede hunts and this gave them more fame and renown.

But if anyone were to ask who started this Dungeon Streaming trend, then they\'d get one of two answers.

Either the \'Irregular\' or the \'Hero\' Evan—both of which, referred to the same person.

Evan had gone back to Geto City sometime in April, his first visit since his battle with Xakon.

In the two years that passed, the city had recovered from the damage it sustained in that battle and was now prospering even more.

The \'Spider Nest\' dungeon was thriving and bringing in thousands of Adventurers, especially due to its feature of getting stronger the more times it was cleared.

When he got there, the Spider Royal Guards who used to be Level 60 were now Level 400!

This had drawn S Rank adventures and the high magic density influenced more monsters to spawn so to prevent them from attacking Geto City and its surrounding satellite towns, a new dungeon had formed.

Evan had no business with this new dungeon, and his goal was the \'Spider Nest\', which as he had assumed, had been cleared the maximum number of times.

This meant one thing.

\'Spider Nemesis\' Cheisnih had spawned.

Like in the game, the Cheisnih took a humanoid form and ventured into the nearest city, full of curiosity as her memories had been lost since her last incarnation.

Evan had to employ Eliza\'s help to scan the city, with the priestess instantly sensing the enormous clearly non-humanoid-race life force of the monster.

Unfortunately, she ended up being provoked by a certain S Rank adventurer party like in the game, and she quickly lost her temper and returned to her true form to kill them.

The colossal arachnid dominated the landscape with her eight legs and 15-metre tall chitinous body. Gleaming yellow eyes and a gaping maw exuded menace, while venomous spinnerets threatened all in her path.

It was a nightmare made flesh, instilling fear in all who beheld her terrifying form.

She then proceeded to wipe the floor with all the S Rank adventurers in the city. Luckily for the people of Geto, Evan was around.

The boy had Kayla and Milena act as his Camerawomen while he made a spectacular entrance and fought the Spider Nemesis within a barrier Eliza created to protect the city from collateral damage.

He vanquished her after a \'tough and epic\' battle.

Evan then sent this recording to TV stations he knew across the continent and had them show his fight against the Spider Nemesis during the day\'s News broadcast.

He went ahead to do the same thing with a few other monsters, like in Tarse where he fought a \'Crawling Lightning\', a giant worm monster with its whole body clad in lightning that was capable of easily achieving supersonic speeds.

It was what the GWE Chief Court Mage Jenson had slayed to gain international fame, and Evan fought one that razed a 900 square kilometre abandoned town to the ground.

Because a lot of people had missed the first Broadcast, the second had tons of viewers as a lot of people (Mostly Adventurers and those with Combat Classes) wanted to see Evan fighting monsters, hoping to learn 1 or 2 tricks from him.

The more viewers brought more money for the TV Stations, and they were very eager to work with Evan again.

In this manner, Evan turned himself into a household name.

Evan put this idea into the heads of other adventurers during an interview, and seeing the fame it brought the boy, they were more than willing to try.

The boy had used the promise of fame to motivate adventurers and combatants to become stronger in preparation for the potential war against Gozon\'s Demons.

Since they had to fight monsters for the videos, they\'d level up in the process, and since they would not want to look like idiots on TV, they\'d have to refine their skills and techniques, which would make them better combatants.

Evan was helping increase the quality of adventurers across the World and people were not blind not to see the boy\'s intentions.

This, in turn, brought more fame and more influence for Evan, to the point where even the reclusive nations of the Dark Continent had taken note of him.

"But that Spider Nemesis, though…"

Laurene dropped her glass on the table and looked at Evan before continuing.

"You didn\'t kill it, did you?"

Her question was answered with a wry smile and that was as good as a \'YES\' for Laurene.

Evan had vanquished Cheisnih. There was a big difference between \'Vanquish\' and \'Kill\'.

Only Kayla, Milena, Eliza and Leviah knew that Cheisnih was still alive. And now, Laurene and David were added to that list as well.

Cheisnih was a powerful Level 500, one even stronger than Yetu was when he was the boss of the \'Graveyard of the Arrogant\'.

Evan had instead \'tamed\' the Spider Nemesis, put her in a magical contract and smuggled her into Tarse to act as Leviah\'s assistant.

The boy could not get the image that Leviah sent him of Cheisnih in her giant spider form chomping on the body of a \'Fallen Celestial Deity\' out of his head.

"Leaving Evan\'s schemes aside for now. Dave, I got a question for you."

"What\'s up?"

"I just never really got the chance to ask this before.

Evan had the goddess Artemisia interfere in his case; I have my \'Mental Block\' skill which I just recently discovered is more of a \'Spiritual Block\'.

But you…how did you retain yourself from Ellisar\'s clutches?"

Laurene\'s question was of how David had avoided being taken over by his Predecessor, Ellisar Krisfiel.

"Oh, yeah. I told Evan, but I don\'t think I told you, did I?

Well, in my case, it was the order in which my skills awakened that helped me."

David sat upright as he continued his explanation.

"You see, regardless of whether I gained my Mystic Eyes or not, I would have become an Anti-Mage.

Meaning, I\'d have the \'Counter Spell\' and \'Mana Burn\' skills either way.

And it was precisely because I had those skills, that I gained the Mystic Eyes of Anti-Magic.

When my skills awakened, my Counter Spell skill awakened before my Mystic Eyes."

The Spiritual Attack meant to destabilize their souls before the Previous Heroes was tied to their Mystic Eyes.

It was also a Magic Spell, which meant David\'s Counter Spell worked on it.

And since his Counter Spell awakened before his Mystic Eyes, the skill simply sent the Spiritual Attack back to its sender—

Ellisar.

So not only was David\'s soul not destabilized, Ellisar who had the spiritual attack reflected onto him was the one whose soul got destabilized.

"Ellisar didn\'t have a body, his soul was just being given a piggyback ride by the Mystic Eyes, and destabilizing it made him fall off…into the depths of oblivion."

"Wow…to think three of theGreatSeven Heroes perished like this."

Evan muttered under his breath and Laurene nearly replied that it was just \'two\' on reflex. However, she decided to keep Yvonne\'s soul fragment which was dormant in Venus a secret for now, at least until Yvonne healed enough to wake up.

"The three of us may have been lucky with our skillsets and divine intervention, but I doubt the others would be."

Laurene spoke with a light frown on her face and this time, David was the one who smoothened her brows as he asked.

"Who do you have in mind?"

"Abigail Lowe. Surely, she\'s the \'Hero of Destruction\'. However, we don\'t know if that\'s actually \'Abigail\' or \'Ali-."

"It\'s definitely Abigail."

Evan cut Laurene off, his voice filled with so much certainty it surprised the other two Heroes.

"Why are you so sure?"

"Because it\'s Abigail we\'re talking about."

The two of them didn\'t understand how that gave him such confidence and Evan smiled wryly and explained a bit.

"Abigail is STRONG. Like really STRONG.

The girl\'s basically aSuperwoman. She\'s also an Irregular to boot.

If I wasn\'t around, she\'d surely be the Strongest of the New Gen Heroes."

"Are you saying she\'s more powerful than the current me?"

David posed this question with narrowed eyes and Evan didn\'t even blink before answering.

"Yes. She is.

Abigail\'s Irregular Nature makes it such that things like trying to steal her body simply \'don\'t work\'. It\'s not that she\'s resistant to their effects, it\'s just that they wouldn\'t work in the first place as far as she\'s the target."

"You sure know a lot about her considering you\'ve never met…"

"I\'ve had Artemisia show me some things."

Evan replied to Laurene with a light shrug before raising his left hand and looking at his watch.

"20 minutes more."

Hearing him speaking about the time, Laurene and David were reminded once again about the reason why they were here, which clearly wasn\'t to enjoy the beach.

"How long have you been planning this, Evan?"

"Since he woke up after Lacertilia."

David replied to Laurene\'s question, giving the girl a peek at the depths of Evan\'s plans for the Demonic Hand.

After repeated failures in the past four years, the Demonic Hand were going to pull out all the stops to make sure the \'Fall of the Desert Country\' was a success.

The fact that they were already unsealing High-Rank Demons from the war of a millennium ago was proof of this.

They were also going to gather all the remnant members of the Defunct Eight, Ninth and Tenth Divisions scattered across the planet and use them in Tarse.

Furthermore, the Sixth and Seventh Divisions who were on the Alpha Continent, were going to support the Fifth Division in Tarse.

Evan admitted that part of the reason why stopping the \'Lizard Lord\'s Outbreak\' was a success was because the Sixth Division had not come in to support Maude and Kethryllia yet.

Things would not have been as easy if Seith Beddoe had been around.
