Chapter 173: Aldrich's Original
Chapter 173: Aldrich's Original
'You only die when your memories are forgotten.'
If one were to say this sentence out loud, people would cringe and would probably call it a distasteful cliche.
But in this Plaza and for El Cid, this wasn't just a sentence, it was a Skill. Alas, Aldrich, as he was now, couldn't dissect this theory. The Devil who had possessed him through the Devil's Oldest Change had inherited Aldrich's all memories and understanding. But not even he could control Aldrich's thinking capabilities.
Or was there another reason for the Devil to not be able to do so?
*
The Devil's purple eyes reflected the image of Boss, who his body had fought during his first raid. The first being that had come out from the earth was Buckey O'Neill.
The Rare Ranked Boss hadn't changed in appearance, except his eyes which were completely hollow. But the Devil could see the Data hovering above its head.

Undead Buckey O'Neill
Rank: Viscount

The second being came reeking with the smell of blood. On his bare chest, several runic markings were glowing in red, and in his hand, there was a blood-red spear. This was the weapon that even Aldrich had felt helpless about, the spear Gae Bulg.
He hehe!
The Devil's purple hair shook and an evil grin came upon his face as he felt the devilish aura coursing through the spear wielder's vein. He again looked at the Stats, passing over the hollow eyes.

Undead Cu Chulainn
Rank: Viscount

The last two beings were like two twins. One had light red hair, and the other had sky blue. The charm emanated by their bare body parts was full of lust and seduction. But the Devil had his eyes only planted on their thighs. His nether region throbbed, and his tongue seemed to elongate to reach down towards them. The Stats above their heads also glowed in the Devil's eyes.

Undead Bellerophon

Thump!
The Devil put down the Pillar on the ground vertically, and his overly large palm stroked it up and down as he looked at Boss El Cid.
"Haha Ha!! I rarely have a taste for men But, I can manage if needed."
Silence reigned the entire dome. The decapitated and smashed soldiers had covered the ground, and what had left of the army were standing still. The wind had stopped howling, the horse had stopped neighing, and the rustle of leaves had vanished.
A brilliant beam of red flash came out of the Boss Crawler's eyes, as he slowly muttered.
"GO."
AS soon as El Cid ordered them, the two beauties dashed towards the Devil's left and right. Cu Chulainn aimed at the Devil and threw his spear, but the fastest to take action among them was Buckey O'Neill. By the time anyone had even moved, he had already fired thousands of Mana Bullets at the Devil.
ROARRR!!!
The Devil let out a deafening roar and took the full brunt of the shots. The Mana Bullets entered his towering body and came out from behind, leaving behind gaping holes. Even the spear had caught up by this time and entered the Devil's chest through one of the holes. As it was about to come out of its back, hundreds of thorns protruded from the spear's shaft and came bursting out from the 30 ft. tall Devil. And these thorns brought with themselves unbearable and scorching heat.
"Ahhhh. Ahhhhhh."
The Devil bawled in pain as the thorns kept vanishing and appearing at different places on his body. Sometimes they came out of his hands, and sometimes they came out of his face. And with the spear as the center, visible red hotness started to spread outwards. El Cid's hands went towards the two swords at his waist, as the Devil kept screaming.
"AHHHHHHH AHHHHHHAHAH HAHA HAHAHA!!! I am just fucking with you all"
The sudden change in the Devil's tone caught everyone off guard. His large clawed hand went towards the shaft of the spear that was yet to enter his body, and with a sudden jerk, he ripped it out.
Katchaa!
Houuuuuu!!
The spear along with the thorns came rupturing out the Devil's chest and stomach, leaving behind hundreds of gaping holes. But soon hundreds of shadowy, eyeless, and noseless faces appeared on the Devil's body and rushed towards the holes. It didn't even take one blink of all the Crawler's eyes for the holes to vanish.
The Devil looked at the trembling spear, trying to escape out of the Devil's grip and he mockingly muttered.
"What is this trash?!"
CRUNCHHHH!!!
The Devil's purple eye shined as he tightened his grip and the spear shattered even before he could use all his strength. An illusory scream of pain and remembrance echoed in the dome as the spear's pieces fell to the ground.
"Heh! What powerful emotions!!"
The Devil savored the outlet of emotions but soon snapped his eyes towards the Boss Crawler. In front of the Boss, the red hair of Cu Chulainn flailed and two teardrops fell from the corners of his eyes. The Devil's eyes became wide as the entire body of the puny legend burst into a glob of redness.
"RIASTRAD!!!"
The undead Cu Chulainn shouted and dashed towards the Devil. On the other side, a burst of Mana came out of the undead Buckey O'Neill and the nozzle of his rifle gave a brilliant flash of blue as he shouted.
"MANA BURST!!!"
From his left and right, a blast of ethereal golden-red Divine Aura surrounded the two Bellerophon, shaking the entire Dungeon. The March of Arrogance turned to a raging dash as they lunged at the Devil and shouted.
"Athena, bless us with thine wisdom
Athena, bless us with thine protection
"
HAHAHA!!
The Devil's dense purple hair roiled like a churning waterfall, and he let out a peal of crazed laughter. He looked at the Boss El Cid, who was calmly watching the entire scene, and with an evil grin on his face, he grunted.
"You call these Skills?! Hee Hee HAHA! Let me show you bitches what a true Skill looks like. "
The Devil raised his right hand in the air and pointed his finger towards heaven.
"Law of Darkness. Law of Devil; Combine
