Legacy of the Betelgeuse

Everything around Shazjae is destroyed and there's no more debris or anything. It all gets disintegrated into nothing and some become ashes. Ivonna and the others can just watch players and NPCs are dying, thrown, and disintegrated by the falling stars. Ivonna drops her shield and lance and looks down while accepting their defeat.

Suddenly a barrier is created around them. A barrier that's big enough to cover millions of players and hundreds of thousands of knights from the falling stars. Ivonna is surprised and looking at how magnificent the barrier is and how strong it is to protect everyone from the massive falling stars.

A woman wearing a white gown walking toward them from afar with millions of knights behind her. They're also bringing hundreds of thousands of artillery with them. The generals and the knights that were planning to run away are now mesmerized by the barrier and the woman.

Kingstar looks at the woman.

"Who is she, Ivonna? How can such an NPC have a very powerful ability like that?"

Ivonna shakes her head.

"I have no idea, but if I'm right, she must be the new Saintess that Trevor was protecting."

Kingstar is chuckling with relief and disbelief.

"We are saved..."

Aria looks at Shazjae and then she looks at the knights and the generals that are about to retreat.

"Help them, we must protect everyone at all cost! With the power that the Betelgeuse has given to me, I will protect all of you."

The knights are cheering and then they all run toward Shazjae without fear and with confidence. Ivonna is surprised to see them charging toward the city, and when she's about to stop and warn them about the debuff aura that Shazjae is releasing, she sees the knights aren't affected by the debuff aura.

Ivonna is confused and then she looks at Kingstar.

"Do you see them? It seems that they're not affected by the debuff aura."

Kingstar nods in agreement.

"Yes. It seems that she used some kind of spell to prevent the knights from getting the debuff."

Kingstar is raising his forehead and looks at Ivonna.

"Look at your buff status screen..."

Ivonna looks at the buff status screen.

[Highest Divinity Aura]

[Removes any status(s) ailment and prevents from getting any status(s) ailment when the buff is active. Reduced Stamina usage by 50%. Reduced Damage Taken by 25%. Increase Recovery ability, spell, and items by 100%.]

Ivonna then looks at Kingstar.

"We are going to be fine now. Let's help them on the battlefield and do like we always do."

Kingstar nods and then he looks back and raises his hand.

"Men! Let's help our friend on the battlefield. The Saintess has lifted the debuff status and we will be able to go on all out! Let's move!"

Kingstar moves with everyone into the city, and when Ivonna is about to leave as well, Aria approaches her and gently smiles at her. Ivonna bows her head.

"Thank you for saving us, Saintess..."

Aria nods and then she looks around.

"Is there someone with red hair and gold eyes amongst those adventurers?"

Ivonna smiles and shakes her head.

"If you mean Trevor, he's currently not with us. He's over there afar from us. He's unconscious because of Shazjae's ability, and he won't be able to wake up until a few hours from now."

Aria looks worried and looks at where Trevor is.

"Trevor..."

Ivonna smiles.

"He will be fine, Saintess. He just needs to rest, that's all."

Aria nods and then looks at Shazjae.

"We need to stop that thing from destroying Orion."

Ivonna grabs her shield and lance.

"That's what we are planning, Saintess. With your help, we will be able to do it."

Aria nods and then everyone is entering the city and fight Shazjae.

(Few hours have passed)

I open my eyes and Azrael immediately runs toward me.

"Master! You're awake!"

Grisell stands up and looks at me happily.

"Trevor! You're finally awake! How long are you going to sleep!"

I sit up and rubbing my head. I look around and we are in the middle of nowhere. I look at Grisell.

"Where are we? And how's the situation in the city?"

Grisell is humming nervously.

"Everything went well when the Saintess came to help them, but now it's getting worse. The Saintess' power is getting overwhelmed by Shazjae's ability, and the situation over there is not looking good. The invasion will end in less than an hour!"

I stand up and look at my equipment. My armor is broken and it no longer has any stat on them. Grisell then drops a set of armor in front of me.

"You can use this for now. It's not better than the one you're using, but these are the best that I have on me right now."

I nod and immediately change my equipment.

"Thanks, Grisell. I owe you one."

Grisell nods.

"Good luck out there, Trev. Everyone is waiting for you."

I nod and then look at Azrael.

"Let's go, Az."

Azrael nods and then we fly to the city.

We look at the situation down there. I can't believe what I'm seeing right now. This is no longer a fight, this is a massacre. Shazjae is swinging his tail and throwing debris toward the players, but so many barriers are protecting them from the Shazjae's attacks. I can see that he's using his telekinesis skill now. All the extraterrestrial bosses have telekinesis skills as well and it's not really a special skill, it's just a common skill among the other bosses.

I look at Azrael.

"Az, I think it's time for you to use Blizzard Blitz now. We are going to go all out since we have an hour until the invasion timer runs out."

Azrael nods.

"Yes, Master. I also can't wait to try this skill."

I stand up on Azrael's back and look down at Shazjae.

"Good luck, Az. I'm going now!"

I jump off and freefalling toward Shazjae's head. Azrael then dives down so fast that the wind is breaking and a screeching sound is deafening me. The sound is loud enough to take everyone's attention including Shazjae. Shazjae is opening his mouth and ready to cast a ball of light, but the artillery immediately fires the bolts toward Shazjae's neck and above.

Ivonna looks up and smiles with relief.

"You're finally back."

Kingstar, Queenstar, Diamond, Lothair, Aspen, Emma, Francesca, Chelsea, Michael, Leonardo, Hans, and William are looking up to the sky with big smiles on their faces. They're screaming and cheering at me and Azrael, and the other players start to cheer as well.

Aria is busy healing the wounded knights and soldiers then she looks up. As soon as she sees me, she smiles.

"Trevor!"

Azrael then transforms his form and he almost looks invisible and slowly merges with the mist.

[Azrael activated [Blizzard Blitz]

[Azrael is now in a Specter Mode]

[Azrael is now immune to physical and magical attacks. Azrael allows passing through any matter in Specter Mode]

[Azrael is not strong enough to maintain in a Specter Mode]

[Azrael sacrificed his EXP to maintain the Specter Mode]

[5 minutes until Azrael will be forced to rest and will temporarily disappear from the world]

Azrael then flies through Shazjae and the spot that he passed through has now become frozen. Azrael appears on Shazjae's back and flies back in and out over and over. Shazjae is confused and looks around to see what's happening to his body, then he starts screaming in pain because he can't do anything about it.

I'm readying my scythe and when I'm about to land on his head, I throw my scythe on his head and use [Blink Strike]. I grab my sickle and jump down in front of his face. I look at the small part of his chest that is frozen because of Azrael and then throw my sickle there. As soon as my sickle hits the frozen part of his chest, his skin shatters, and my sickle sticks into his skin. I keep falling and then start pulling my sickle down. A trail of burning flame on the cut I make from my sickle is enough to give him pain.

My sickle is stuck on his crotch and then I'm swinging around and try to pull my sickle from his crotch, and when my sickle is detached from his crotch, I swing my sickle and hit his thigh that is frozen from Azrael's attack. I keep falling until I land on the ground. Everyone is looking at me with disbelief and their mouths are wide open.

I smirk and look at them.

"What are you guys looking at? Never seen something like this before?"

Ivonna looks at the generals and pointing her lance at Shazjae.

"What are you guys doing?! Keep firing!"

Hundreds of thousands of bolts are shot and hit Shazjae's body. The bolts that hit the frozen part of his body manage to penetrate his skin for the first time. Knowing that the bolts can penetrate his skin, they immediately reload the ballistae and keep firing at Shazjae.

Kingstar raises his sword.

"Don't stop attacking until the invasion end!"
