I Know the Secret to Surpass Level 100

But unlike the beautiful women that were used to combine it, the Armageddon looked nothing like them. While they have voluptuous bodies that could attract any man, the Armageddon had long torso and limbs.

It had eight arms, but only has two long legs. Its outfit was composed of a black skin-tight suit that was ripped on different parts, showing stitches and open wounds.

Its aura was menacing and terrifying, like a lion ready to devour its prey. Its powers were several times more powerful than all the women combined, making it a foe that should not be handled lightly.

"So, I have been summoned for the first time in eighty years," the Armageddon spoke. "I am the Arch Armageddon, Vestal. The Queen of Beasts and Diety of Destruction."

Vestal raised her upper hands and conjured a spinning orb of darkness. She fired several rounds of the black beams while she also conjured blades from blood. She was grinning as she watched the boys struggling to block and dodge her attacks.

"You guys killed my hosts, and then you're just like this?" Vestal shook her head, seemingly disappointed. "I wanted to see a lot more, but it seems like this is all you have. What a shame."

She conjured more blades that were made or blood and continued to pour her rain of attacks. The beams were slowly increasing in violence as it fired more frequently and has more powerful attacks.

"This seems like it's not working," Vestal shook her head and stopped her attacks. Lance and the others used this opportunity to gather around her while maintaining a short distance to themselves in case anyone needed backup.

"It think this should be suited better for me." Vestal spun as she formed a violent vortex that destroyed half the castle, opening the building to the outside where people started to gather. "Oh, food."

Vestal opened her right lowest palm and sucked all the people inside her body. She giggled as she felt the energy travel towards her, savoring every last drop of power she just absorbed.

"Mmm, that was quite a snack." Vestal giggled. She winked at the boys before revealing the wings behind her. It was a pair of elongated bat wings with a bluish black flaming orb at the joint. The flames looked bright and could burn off anyone's skin when it comes contact with it.

"Do you like this?" Vestal asked. "I can give you a chance if you surrender. I will make your deaths less painful. But if you don't, I will make sure that you'll beg in the most embarrassing form of begging.

"You talk too much," Ed chuckled. He brandished his sword and rasied it, smiling as he launched himself at Vestal who was waiting for him. She smiled and used one of her hands to block the attack.

Ed was speechless when he saw that his attack was blocked by a mere hand. Vestal could use more powerful techniques than Ed, and that do not look good for him. He was kicked by Vestal on the stomach and kicked his body to the wall where he grunt in pain.

"She's strong," Lance said. He also brandished his swords, but he has no plans of attacking. Vestal could annihilate him in a second, and it he was too complacent, he could lose his head.

Ed was lucky that his aura of armor protected him. If it wasn't activated, there could've been a hole right in his stomach. Vestal had a powerful kick that it created a sonic boom in the air when she hits her target. This kick ensures the death of her enemy and it was a terrifying technique.

"So, you're powerful enought o block my skill." Vestal grinned at Ed as she walked closer to him. The boy was still being raised from the ground and was still stuck on the hole created by Vestal's attack.

When he twitched, Vestal immediately gripoed his hands with both of upper middle arms. She blocked Ed's movements and grinned at him. Her lower middle hands formed a sphere of dark bluish energy.

Ed was familiar with that energy. It was from his enemy just a few minutes ago, Corazon. The burning bluish light and the black streaks of light from the energy was all too familiar.

"So, you targeted me because you still have some consciousness in there, right?" Ed asked. "Corazon? You're still there, am I right?"

Vestal shook her head and laughed in amusement. "It's really funny how you humans think that everything is always up to your standards. We, demons, do not have the same sentiments as you do. We only have rage and anger inside us, and that's something that we keep to ourselves.

"I was formed from the rage and anguish of their souls, but I do not have their emotions. I have their memories, but not their control," Vestal continued. "I only attacked you like this because you're the one who seemingly is too dumb to realize that I am not on your level. You are far beneath me!"

"Black and White Royal Pierce!"

Vestal's stomach was blown away by the powerful attack from beside her. She glanced and saw Lance, smirking. He winked before he stepped back.

"I'll take him."

A flash of flames burned a part of Vestal's arms, more specifically, the ones that were holding Ed in place. Connor then used his speed to swipe Ed away from the woman and escape to safety.

"You almost burned me," Ed scoffed. "Couldn't you at least be careful next time?"

"Couldn't you at least not get hasty next time?" Connor scoffed before dropping Ed from midair. "This is such an ungrateful twat. Is he our friend or what?"

Hope only chuckled and shook his head. "You're both so full of energy."

"What?!" Vestal growled when she realized that Ed escaped from her grasp. She screamed with an intensely sharp tone that it almost deafen the boys after hearing it.

The stomach that was blown away as well as the arms that were ripped from her grew back in an instant. Vestal grinned as she watched the horror on her enemies' eyes. She was mixture of different races and this allowed her to develop abilities that are beyond those.

"She's also a banshee?" Lance scoffed in amusement. "This woman is really something."

"Lance, what do we do?" Connor asked. "This beast has all the powers of the attendants and they rival our own powers right now. And she seem to have some other powers other than the ones from the attendants."

"We fight," Lance said. "Hope will gank the damage while Ed and I attack it close range. Connor, you provide cover and shield using your flames if you can. This battle is going to be bloody."

"It's unlike the Armageddon at the Championship of the Greats," Ed noted. "This one has more power and more intellect than that dragonoid-looking creature. It's in a whole new level."

"It's an Armageddon that has the ability of just a tier below an Absolute."

They all glanceed to the souece of the sound. It was a woman who wore the same uniform of Corazon and Coraline. She was still alive but she was heavily injured. Her body was torn and her arms were almost ripped from her torso.

"Who are you?" Lance helped her and carried her in his arms. "What happened?"

"Thank you. I'm Malice's fifth attendant," the woman said. "I was kicked out of the group because I didn't share the same goals as them. I wanted to live my life in peace and wanted to get away, but they ganged up on me. I was lucky enough to survive."

"If it isn't the treacherous b*tch, Claer," Vestal scoffed. "Funny you found your way back here after the attendants almost killed you. You just dug up your own geave that you desperately escaped before when you came here."

"Shut up, Vestal," Claer growled. "You are one heck of an Armageddon, but you are still not a perfect one."

"She's not?" Lance asked. "Can we use that against her?"

Claer nodded. "Her body will start to dissipate once you get to rip out all of her arms at once. It will be tricky, but it's the onlt way to beat her. Hyperregeneration is one of her skills, so cutting them off one by one would prove useless."

"She did lose some energy when Connor burned her arms off. We might have the chance to defeat her," Ed said. "I felt her aura falter. Maybe that's it."

"She's made up of different souls, her arms connect the souls to each other," Claer said. "If you can cut the connection, you can destroy her. The souls will destabilize and will perish."

Lance nodded and thought of a plan to try and destroy Vestal once and for all. He now has the idea on how to do so, he just needed the perfect timing so he could finally end it.

His friends glanced at him. "So, what's the plan?"
