Chapter 1009: The Sealed Legacies of the Tuatha De Danann [Part 3]



Balor was a very powerful Fomorian, and his eye had the power to destroy anything he gazed

at.

Naturally, he had to activate this ability to work.

So when his gaze landed on Ethan's body, the young man suddenly felt that a crisis was about to befall him.

However, at that moment, something flew past the young man, heading straight to Balor's only eye.

The Fomorian wasn't the least bit troubled by this. As soon as he activated his ability, everything and anything he gazed at would be destroyed regardless of what it was. However, when he gazed at the stone, he realized that his ability wasn't working on it. The shock that Balor felt paralyzed him for a brief moment. And that very tiny lapse in judgment had bought enough time for the stone to hit his only eye, making him cry out in pain as he staggered backward.

Balor hatefully pulled out the stone that struck his eye, which was currently bleeding.

The Progenitor was temporarily blinded, and his regeneration ability had stopped working in that moment.

Ethan, who saw the stone that the Fomorian was holding, immediately recognized it as the Stone of Destiny.

He then glanced in Chloe's direction, who was looking at with an encouraging look on her face.

With a roar that made all those who heard it feel fear in their hearts, Ethan lunged at the Fomorian. His spear blazed fiercely, leaving a trail of flame in its wake.

Balor, who seemed to sense that staying would endanger his life, hastily threw the Stone of Destiny in the direction where he heard the roar before turning into a black mist, escaping the battlefield.

The Fomorian King was incredibly strong, so even a simple stone throw was enough to kill someone like Ethan.

The Stone of Destiny flew at an unbelievable speed, piercing through the bodies of the Fomorians who were unlucky enough to be in its path.

Ethan, who also didn't expect Balor to do such a thing, braced himself to block the Stone of Destiny with his spear.

But it was simply moving too fast for him to block it completely.

However, as if gaining its own sentience, the stone stopped mid-flight, mere inches away from Ethan's chest.

A moment later, it flew back in the hands of the beautiful lady, who wielded it in her left hand as if it was part of her body.

Seeing Balor defeated in battle greatly lowered the Morale of the Fomorians guarding Bres. So, the moment Ethan charged in their direction, all of them ran away, no longer wishing to fight.

Bres also attempted to run away, but his legs gave way, making him fall to the ground.

His fear had paralyzed his body, making it hard for him to escape.

When Ethan was only a meter away from him, the Former King of the Tuatha De Danann could feel the heat that was radiating from the Spear of Slaughter.

It scared him silly, and his survival instincts kicked in-he immediately pleaded for his life to be spared.

"D-Don't kill me!" Bres shouted.

Ethan wasn't moved and was about to go for the kill, but one of the Elders of the Tuatha De Danann arrived to stop him.

"We still have need for this traitor," the Elder said. "Worry not, we will make sure that he will pay for his crimes."

Seeing that the Elder had sinister plans for Bres, Ethan lowered his spear and glanced in the direction of the other Fomorians.

The moment they met his gaze, all of them turned around and fled the battlefield.

With Balor retreating from the battlefield and Bres captured by their enemies, there was no longer any reason to stay and fight to the death.

When the warriors of the Tuatha De Danann saw their enemies retreating, they all raised their weapons and cheered, for they were the victors of this battle.

Chloe looked at Ethan with blood seeping out of the corner of her lips and looking extremely weak.

Truth be told, when she saw Balor appear on the battlefield, she knew that Ethan's life was in danger.

Because of this, she immediately sent the Stone of Destiny flying, targeting the Fomorian's

eye.

Although Balor's gaze did nothing to the Stone of Destiny, his devastating gaze caused a backlash to Chloe, who was soul-bonded to it.

Feeling extremely weak, she leaned on her staff and tried to remain standing to prevent Ethan from worrying about her.

But her pale face didn't escape the young man's eyes, so he immediately rushed to her side to hug and support her body.

"Thank you," Ethan said before carrying Chloe like a princess. "Let's go look for someone to heal you."

Chloe didn't reply and simply wrapped her arms around Ethan's neck, resting her head on his shoulder.

Just as Ethan was about to bring his lover to a healer, the scene around him changed.

He found himself standing on a cliff, overlooking another battlefield with Areadbhair in his hands.

As if understanding what he was supposed to do, he took a deep breath and led the charge to

battle.

Ethan didn't know how long and how many battles he had fought, all he knew was that every time he fought, his understanding of Areadbhair grew by leaps and bounds.

The Areadbhair in his hands was very different from the weapon that he used in the past.

It was more powerful, more overbearing, and... more alive.

He could feel the Will of his weapon and its wish for endless killing.

Using Areadhbair was like using a cursed weapon.

If your Will wasn't strong enough, you would be overcome by its influence and become aNôv(el)B\\jnn

killing machine.

It would get to the point where the wielder would not be able to recognize friend from foe and would simply kill the closest person to them.

However, the more he wielded Areadbhair, the less affected he became of its influence.

The moment Ethan gained full control of his spear, he also gained complete control of its

Legacy.

As the Spear of Slaughter, the Legacy Areadbhair wielded was the Slaughterer's Legacy.

It was a legacy that was not meant for one-on-one battles.

It was meant for large-scale battles and would become more powerful if its wielder was facing a large number of enemies.

Ethan sighed after killing the last opponent in front of him.

After killing so many, he already became numb to killing.

His heart, which was warm and affectionate, had started to turn cold and indifferent.

This was also the side effect of using such a powerful legacy and the main reason why Areadhbair's true power was sealed.

Suddenly, the world around Ethan trembled a bit, and a pair of soft, warm arms wrapped

around his body.

Chloe, who was the first to break away from her trance, noticed that the young man's aura had changed, and it scared her.

Not knowing what else to do, she did the only thing she could and hugged him tightly, making sure to share her warmth with his body.

Ethan's blank gaze regained a bit of life, as he subconsciously moved his left arm to hold onto Chloe, who was hugging him very tightly.

Although it would take him a while to break free from the killing intent and coldness that he had experienced, with his lover by his side, Ethan knew that he was in good hands.
