Digitize: Rebirth of the Silver Death God

Chapter 148: The Battle Commences

A sinister aura permeated the air as the tension between Crooked, Nero, and the others had risen sharply, the growl of the vicious looking werewolf sounding across the area as it stood before Crooked with its fur rising.

When Nero saw their status details, his eyes narrowed as he knew that this wouldn't be an easy battle. He thought to himself, 'Hmm, what does it mean by unknown race shouldn't this system know everything?'

"..." Adult Nero remained silent as his eyes turned serious, his thoughts were currently unknown to the world. After a short moment of confusion, Nero put that at the back of his mind as he contemplated.

'I can figure that out later, right now I think that it's a good thing I could correctly judge the difference in their auras. Elly's group should be able to finish that wolf, with her recent skill level up her strength should be a level lower than mine, but that depends on how much of her core techniques are at Stage 8 and if she has a powerful set of weapons to boost her power; as for this monster, even with my current strength, it will be a reasonably hard fight.'

As Nero thought to here, his eyes flickered when he firmly held his scythe in a battle-ready posture and compared his status details with those of Crooked, who menacingly stared down on himself as if he was his primary prey. He wasn't worried about their group as he knew though Elly acted weak, she was far more powerful than she appeared, if anything, her weakness had to do with her having an innate kind of fear towards spooky atmospheres.

When Crooked saw Nero step towards him with his scythe at the ready, he smirked as his different sized eyes shone in a spooky ray as he spoke in his odd and eerie accent, "Boy, I don't know how you got this far in the palace with your human friends, but no matter. This is where your fate ends; for you and everyone else shall forever bask in an eternity of despair."

Following those dark words, he glanced at the Midnight Dark Werewolf and pointed his staff towards Elly, Lily, Ivy, and Mikan as he spoke, "Leave that boy to me and suppress them!"

As if the werewolf understood his words, its eyes shone in red light before it lifted its head and howled brutally, scattering energy about the room as it then pressed its paws against the stone-paved ground. Its claws cracked the floor due to the force before it dashed towards them at incredible speeds no different from a speeding vehicle.

"Here it comes, Ivy, Lily, get ready! Mikan, remember the plan!"

Elly said with a shout as her manner turned stern; she held her thin sword in an upraised angle with her slender fingers tightly gripping as she poised herself for battle when facing the charging werewolf. The forceful winds from the monster's aura pushing her hair backward as her battle dress fluttered wildly.

"Right!"

Mikan and the others replied in unison; they then spread out as if attempting to surround the werewolf. Mikan reached his arms forward as his body emanated a dense green colored magic power.

Much like Mikan, Ivy and Lily also had similar actions; Ivy cracked her whip, which was saturated with her power as Lily's figure seemed to become indistinct as she soon after vanished.

Nero observed them from the corners of his eyes and showed a look of satisfaction before his pupils focused once more onto Crooked. But as he did this, he noticed that Crooked had vanished.

Suddenly, a dangerous feeling came upon him as if he was standing at the doorstep of death itself; Nero jumped into the air without the slightest hesitation. Yet, right as this happened, the ground where he once stood exploded into bits of rubble scattered about the area for a few meters. Immediately after the explosion, three dark-colored rays of light blasted across the sky towards Nero's position.

'Crap! He's so fast!'

Nero thought as his eyes shrunk when he sensed the energies; without a moment to lose, he twisted his body to the to side like a revolving gig. The force from his spin pushed his body a few meters to the left in the air.

Three resonant explosions sounded as three areas in the distance had a blast of dark energies, the destructive force being a few notches deadlier than any hand grenade on Earth.

Crooked, who saw his handiwork, smirked, but he promptly looked at Nero's figure that fell from the sky a few meters away with interest as he spoke.

"Oh, well now, I didn't think you'd be such a skillful human boy, but no matter, it's still not enough to overcome your fate."

Following those words, Crooked's body glowed in dark lights before he used his staff to tap the ground. He then spoke as his voice sounded about the area, "Cursed Domain..."

Instantly, a dark power spread from the staff's base across the area for no less than ten meters before forming a black dome, much like a cage around them. Nero, who only now landed on the ground, frowned as he saw the change, he didn't know its effects, but he didn't care; he knew that he only needed one thing to solve all problems.

'I must kill him in as short a time as possible.'

Nero thought as he didn't hold himself back, angling his coldly shimmering scythe far behind him as his body erupted with his full silver-colored magic power. Crooked stared at Nero and chuckled as his body once again emanated his dark magic power, both energies colliding within the black dome as the battle between the duo had officially begun.
