Chapter 34 34: Faith Or Not?



Noises of weapons clashing with other weapons responded on the entire battlefield. Agonizing screams of torment followed as bodies kept dropping to the ground that had been painted red with blood.

"This place... It's too noisy." Azekiel shook his head.

He turned his gaze to the Witch of Famine. "Bring the noise down a bit. Let's see what you're capable of."

Azekiel raised his hands towards the sky as he called forth the Witch of Famine. "Summon Lia."

His Soul Energy bar was already full for the most part, especially since he had just killed Michael. Moreover, he wasn't worried about spending his Soul Energy by summoning Lia. This was a battlefield. What could be a better place to recharge his soul energy than this place after spending it?

Moreover, it allowed him to see what Lia was capable of. He had already seen the might of Raphael. Now only Lia was left. He wanted to understand her, so he knew how to use her in the future.

Also, even if it was Lia killing the enemies, it was Azekiel who was going to get the experience since Lia and Raphael couldn't grow on their own. Their strength was Static, and it depended on how strong Azekiel was!

Also, if he wanted to gain experience in this trial, this battlefield was the best place for it. Since he still hadn't started his Empire, it didn't count as his war. So he could kill the soldiers to gather some experience.

The battlefield... It was already very chaotic; however, there were still some soldiers who had seen the newly arrived guests on the battlefield.

The Generals of both the Armies had noticed Azekiel, who stood with a group of fifty people. None of them carried a weapon. All had only sacks in their hands, filled with food.

If that was all, both the Armies might've ignored them, thinking they were just strays. Unfortunately, that wasn't all. There was a soldier lying dead at the feet of Azekiel. As for the soldier, it was from Elijah's Empire!

The General from the Empire of Greed realized that it was Azekiel who killed that soldier since there wasn't any other soldier in the vicinity. Moreover, if Azekiel hadn't killed him, he should've been scared to stand near a dead body.

"Mo, take twenty soldiers and slaughter all those people who dared lay a hand on our people," The dark-haired General commanded his men.

As if immediately following his command, a Captain of the Army took twenty soldiers with him to attack Azekiel to punish him for his sin of standing before them.

Twenty horses race through the battlefield, carrying the soldiers of the Empire of Greed.

Azekiel noticed the soldiers coming toward him, but he didn't even flinch for a second. Instead, he stood calmly with his hands behind his back.

Lia was summoned, and now she was standing right beside Azekiel. For a moment, the twenty soldiers were stunned to see a beautiful woman appear out of thin air. However, thinking it to be their misconception, they assumed that the Woman had always been there, just hiding behind Azekiel previously.

Lia had been summoned by Azekiel for the first time, and she was already so excited that she was going to have some fun.

"The soldiers are really weak, but that doesn't mean I can't have fun with them." She licked her lips as her fingers slid down her staff.

She gazed back at Raphael as if teasing him that she was selected instead of him. Raphael didn't react even the slightest, standing like a complete professional who couldn't be phased.

"Do what you've been summoned for. If you can't prove yourself today, this will be the first and the last time I've summoned you," Azekiel warned the lady who seemed to be smug just because she had been summoned.

The Twenty Soldiers on the horse kept inching closer and closer to Azekiel, brandishing their weapons. Before long, the distance between the two sides was only a few meters.

One of the Soldiers jumped off his horse, landing before Azekiel. He swung his Sword to slice the head of Azekiel.

Azekiel still didn't use his hands even as he watched the sword inching closer to his neck. His hands were still behind his back.

The other soldiers had a smug look on their faces as they watched Azekiel, thinking that he had frozen in fear.

Their smug look immediately disappeared as they watched the body of their Captain split into two halves. His Sword couldn't even touch the neck of the King of Gluttony before his body popped to the ground in two halves.

The rest of the guards had been planning to attack the others as well; however, seeing what happened, their faces turned pale as they subconsciously took a step back. They hadn't even seen what had happened.

No one had moved! Azekiel was still in the same position as before. No one had any sharp weapons either. So how could their captain be cut in two halves.

"You are really brave indeed," Lia whispered in the ears of Azekiel. "I thought you would at least flinch this close to death. Did you have so much faith in me that I'll step in?"

Azekiel's sharp eyes looked deep into the eyes of Lia. "I know what kind of a person you are. You are someone who only thinks about yourself. You would never care about anyone else."

"Then why didn't you protect yourself? Why did you think I'll save you?" Lia grew confused. If Azekiel was really that suspicious of her, why did he leave his safety on her? She didn't know that it wasn't exactly the case.

"You didn't save me. You saved yourself. If I die, you disappear as well. Your chance of having some fun goes away as well. So you didn't save me for myself. You saved me for yourself," Azekiel answered lazily before he turned his back on the battlefield. He didn't even see what had been happening here, leaving everything to Lia.

Lia didn't know that even though Azekiel was entirely sure she would be forced to save him, he still didn't leave his safety in her hands. He had already taken some precautions to make sure he wasn't going to be hit by the sword, which Lia didn't know about.

"An interesting man indeed." Lia was really fascinated by Azekiel. When she had first seen him, she thought he was just a weak kid who had gained the ability to summon her, but slowly, she realized that he was much more than that.

It was as if there was some kind of darkness in the heart of Azekiel. He didn't appear to be scared of death which allowed him to go far and beyond others. Also, he had already killed a King. She was trying really hard to understand Azekiel, but so far, she was failing.

Even though the soldiers didn't know how their captain had died, they had a feeling that it was the work of these people.

"Kill them all!" Another man amongst the nineteen soldiers took the command since he was the most senior here.

This time, instead of one soldier, all nineteen ran towards Lia and Azekiel.

"Your mind is so weak." Lia chuckled as she tapped her staff twice! The snake head of the staff came alive following her tap as its two-deep eyes opened up.
