NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1494: Fighting The Nightmare Demon King And His Children
-----
The Nightmare Demon King's daughters were surprised at what they saw, Maria's approaching army was nothing they had ever seen before.
"D-Dead?! Are they all dead?! Undead then…! But that's…! How?!"
"It seems that the enemy we're fighting is similar to father? A being that governs over death? But not even father can do this…"
"I'm hungry! I'm so hungryyyyy! Someone feed me!"
"Shut up you fat ass! Why don't you do something useful in your damn life and help us out then?! Go ahead and eat all you want!"
The slender nightmare demon grabbed her giant brother with her long arms, throwing him into the middle of the incoming wave of Undead Nightmare Beasts.
"Food! Smells weird…! But I'm so hungry!"
The Undead charging against him quickly roared, unleashing phantasmal flames and deadly attacks from every angle, nightmare power and nether fueling their new forms.
They were much stronger than normal undead that their creator could make, giving her a new army of overpowered units, Nightmare Undead!
And yet…
"AAAAMMM!"
The Nightmare Demon in front of them opened his mouth, which suddenly extended so bigly it reached the entire corridor, ceiling, and walls in a single second, an endless maw of darkness.
CRUUUNCH!
And dozens of Undead were devoured instantly, the fat nightmare demon closed his jaws, munching on everything and swallowing.
"Hmmm! That was delicious! HEHEHEHE! I WANT MOREEEEEE!"
The Nightmare Demons behind him looked at the scene in surprise, with shocked smiles.
That was, after all, the Nightmare Demon King's strongest child.
Despite his child-like personality, despite being so simple-minded…
He was a monster even the Nightmare Demon King's was wary of, due to the nature of his Nightmare Authority…
"Good brother! Keep eating them all!"
"Hmph, to think this useless fat slob would finally become more useful…"
As his sisters praised him, the other Nightmare Demons cheered while laughing evilly.
"Ooooh! Lord Glutton can do it!"
"He's eating them all!"
"I can't believe it, he's so strong?!"
"T-This is why his father respects him despite everything?!"
"I once heard he was the strongest of his children, then it's the truth!"
"Amazing! Please devour their souls, young master Glutton!"
As the Nightmare Demons laughed and celebrated…
"{Heavenly Radiance}"
FLAAASH!
A slashing wave beam of pure blinding, holy light emerged out of nowhere, cutting through the shadows and avoiding every undead, but reaching Glutton.
"GEEEH?!"
Glutton opened his maws, trying to devour the light, and he did.
Until…
BOOOMMM!!!
"GRUUAAGH?!"
The Nightmare Demons, especially his sisters, gasped in disbelief as they saw Glutton's body explode with pure, blinding light.
His fat body bounced over the floor, slowly rolling down while vomiting black blood, a hole was made through his stomach!
"Glutton?!"
"This can't be! Who is strong enough to even do such a thing?!"
His sisters glared at the one coming through the darkness… a young, handsome man with short blonde hair and bright blue eyes, a tall and strong figure, carrying with him a radiant, divine sword. A hero from another world that came to bring light to this world encompassed by the eternal nightmares.
"Maria is taking care of your King, and it our duty to take you down, Nightmare Demons! We are well aware of your strength. Perhaps her army alone won't be enough. Hence, we'll step forward and end this."
It was nobody else but him, one of Maria's husbands, and the strongest Hero of Yggdrasil, another world, a fantasy world that people of Blue Star had only ever fantasized about in their minds, books, and drawings.
A hero from another world, a true beacon of radiance and hope like nobody else, and the most terrifying being for Nightmare Demons, who embody nothing but fears, resentment, and the darkness of human beings…
"That's one of the students from the Dream Heart Academy…"
"Is he?! That bastard…! What sort of power is that?! That light could cut through and damage Glutton?!"
"Prepare yourself, we are here."
As Jonathan pointed his sword at them, his blade glowed brightly, revealing amidst the shadows the rest of Maria's family and friends!
"Alright, so it's time, huh?"
Emily stepped forward, covered on her thunderous armor.
"I can't believe Maria became such a huge thing… and she did all of this?!"
Sofia wore her golden Valkyrie armor while carrying her spear, her dream mechanical heart fused into her equipment.
"I-I am honestly shocked too… but let's trust her!"
Alma moved forward while furrowing her eyebrows, carrying her powerful staff.
"Let's do this, Egolatra."
"Heh."
Martina was right behind her, Egolatra creeping behind her, smiling at the Nightmare Demons with a strange smile.
"We're finally here, Tooth! Time to kill these bastards and be done with it!"
"Raaaarrr!"
Partner emerged, riding her loyal Undead Familiar, the Purple Abyss Sabretooth Tiger Nightmare Beast: Tooth, who had grown stronger from S Rank to SS Rank through the journey here, while she held her two powerful spears.
"So this is what remains of their army? A sizable amount of Nightmare Demons, and they're fairly strong… Let us not lower our guard, everyone."
Emeraldine carried with her the bow she had, overflowing with the energies of light, nature, and life, she wasn't even walking, but sitting over a throne made of Yggdrasil wood, which moved on its own to carry her around. By her side was also her Divine Spirits and Root on his small spiritual form.
"Let's leave the big guy to mama!"
"Okay!"
"I'll fight and do my best too!"
Nyx, Arachne, and Celes stepped forward, the three children coming together as a group, carrying their respective weapons… or well, Arachne's weapons were her own spider legs in her back. Nyx had already fought Nightmare Demons a lot, and even experienced the terrible powers they have, she knew how to deal with them. Meanwhile, Celes was looking forward to testing his abilities.
"Celes, don't be reckless, stay close to me as well, please."
Right next to them was Nia, close to Celes, her dear son. She carried her thunderous, windy spear with her, her aura of lightning and winds encompassing her quickly made her seem rather unique, like a storm goddess.
