On the west wall of the city, Albedo supported Ainz and flew above it, with more than thirty high-tier angels chasing them, like a relentless pack of predators. The Seraph of Holy Fire, wielding a scepter, continuously launched attacks. Magic arrays appeared before them like circular shields, then spewed pillars of [Holy Fire] energy.
Albedo used her demonic flying ability to dodge nimbly, but eventually she was outnumbered and locked on by two pillars of energy. At the critical moment, she hurled Ainz Ooal Gown with all her might, then turned to block all the attacks, a heroic act of self-sacrifice.
Boom!
"Albedo!" An explosion sounded behind him. Ainz Ooal Gown used the flying object's effect to stabilize his body and anxiously turned to check the situation, his heart filled with a rare concern.
A black shadow flew out from the explosion. It was Albedo. At this moment, there were several burn marks on her body, clearly covered by the fire magic attack, but she was injured because she had no armor to protect her.
"Ainz-sama! Don't stop, keep going!" Albedo fiercely urged Ainz Ooal Gown to leave immediately, and then rushed back without hesitation, because besides the Seraph of Holy Fire, there were fifteen more Seraph of Valor wielding spears around them both!
Clang, clang, clang!
The sounds of axes and spears clashing continuously echoed. Albedo was ferocious. Each of her attacks could repulse a Seraph of Valor. She truly single-handedly blocked the pursuit of all the Seraph of Valor, demonstrating incredible strength and loyalty. Unfortunately, this situation did not seem destined to last long.
The Seraph of Holy Fire behind her blasted several pillars of energy flame in succession, knocking the struggling Albedo to the ground. The raging holy flames continuously reduced her health, tormenting her. Albedo endured the holy flames and stubbornly rubbed her way out of the blaze, ready to continue the fight, her spirit unwavering.
However, at this moment, six Seraph of Valor swooped down, forming a semicircle formation with holy spears in their hands and stabbing towards Albedo, a deadly coordinated attack.
Albedo swung her war axe swiftly, and parried three of the holy spears. However, three Seraph of Valor still seized the opportunity and thrust with three other holy spears with full force, piercing her left ribs, right shoulder, and her back, which was unprotected by armor, causing severe wounds.
"Albedo!!!" Upon seeing this, Momonga immediately abandoned his plan to escape. Green light suppressing his emotions appeared on his body. He pulled a scroll from his backpack and activated it without hesitation, his determination burning.
The terrifying energy wave pushed back the Seraph of Valor. Albedo regained her freedom and immediately retreated to Ainz Ooal Gown's side to prepare for defense.
As the Seraph of Holy Fire continued to bombard him with attacks, Ainz Ooal Gown used another magic scroll and a wall of bones instantly rose, shielding him and Albedo behind it. However, the wall of bones could only block two pillars of energy flame. There were over a dozen Seraph of Holy Fire attacking, and the dense flames instantly engulfed the figures of Ainz Ooal Gown and the others.
At that critical moment, a dense shower of arrows suddenly scattered from the sky, disrupting the pursuit of the Seraph of Holy Fire and the Seraph of Valor. Not only that, a terrifying destructive energy surged forth like a mountain flood, directly submerging two-thirds of the angels, then struck the city wall behind them with unstoppable force, shattering it in an instant.
The Seraph of Holy Fire who fortunately evaded the energy attack flew to a higher altitude. When he looked forward, he saw two white-clad dark elves and a large number of magical beasts—an unexpected reinforcement.
The guardians of the Sixth Floor of the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick - Aura Bella Fiora and Mare Bello Fiore. Aura was a beast tamer, and Mare was a Magic Caster of the faith-based large-area annihilation system.
"Destroy them!" At Aura's command, a large number of magical beasts behind her charged forward like wild horses and launched an assault against the high-tier angels, creating chaos in the enemy ranks.
Entangled by the monsters, the high-tier angels no longer had the energy to attack Ainz Ooal Gown and his companions, so Aura and Mare ran forward to meet them.
"Ainz-sama, are you alright?" Aura rushed into the smoke-filled flames and saw Ainz Ooal Gown holding Albedo, whose wings were severely burned and 60% of her skin was charred. She asked worriedly, her voice trembling slightly.
Momonga was surprised to see Aura and Mare, a wave of relief washing over his face. "Aura! Mare! You came just in time. Mare, heal Albedo!"
"Ah... yes!" Mare rushed over to Albedo, pointed his staff at her, and cast a healing spell, a gentle green light enveloping the Succubus.
Fortunately, Albedo was not an Undead, so she wouldn't be harmed by healing magic. The green light covered her entire body and immediately reacted. The burn wounds all over her body disappeared without a trace, and her wings returned to normal. However, Mare was not a Magic Caster specialized in healing, so he only treated the superficial wounds. Albedo's HP was still very low, and she couldn't continue fighting.
"Ainz-sama, you and Albedo should retreat first. We'll take care of the rest," After seeing Albedo recover, Aura patted her chest and said confidently, a bright smile on her face.
Momonga only had time to ask Aura at this moment, "Aura, what are you going to do next?" Previously, Aura and Mare were assigned a mission by Demiurge, who only said it was a safety measure, so Ainz Ooal Gown was unclear about their movements.
Aura replied, "Demiurge considered that our plan might fail due to unforeseen circumstances, so he asked me, Mare, the Eight-Arm Blade Lord (who is probably the "Eight-Armed Sword Killer" she meant), and the Three Demon Generals' army to remain outside the city. Upon receiving his signal, we would attack the city to create chaos so that everyone could safely escape."
"Is that so..." Momonga was silent for two seconds, pondering the information, then reminded Aura, "Then you must be careful. There is a special magic disrupting teleportation in this area. Once you create chaos, quickly retreat and don't get entangled by the enemy."
"I understand, Ainz-sama. Don't worry, Mare and I will be careful," Aura said enthusiastically, nodding assuredly.
After that, Ainz Ooal Gown and Albedo evacuated the city, while Aura and Mare led the horde of monsters to kill all the high-tier angels pursuing them, and began to attack the urban area again, spreading destruction.
The cemetery area.
Kael broke free from the constraints of Victim's skill and immediately joined the angels in battle to besiege Demiurge and Sebas Tian, their eyes now solely fixed on these two targets.
At this moment, Demiurge had completely transformed into his demonic form. His body was massive, muscular, and enveloped in flames. He was indeed a very powerful and ferocious demon, but it was not enough. Under the encirclement of many high-tier angels, he was already covered in wounds, his breath coming in ragged gasps.
Triple Maximize Magic: [Heavenly Judgment Cross]!
Tenth Tier: [Baptism of Light]!
Three large holy light swords intersected and pierced Demiurge's body, pinning him to the ground, a brutal suppression. Then a beam of holy energy fell from the sky and struck him, burning his flesh.
Oh!
The demonic roar echoed everywhere, then gradually weakened and finally vanished completely. Demiurge had fallen.
Kael immediately added Tenth Tier: [Divine Flame], incinerating the demon's body to ashes, then retrieved a cup surrounded by python decorations from within it—Demiurge's World Item.
