Forced to Sell Myself to the Female Lead After Killing the Male Lead Chapter 8 - 8

Chapter 8:

"We have to stop this wave!"

After gulping down the last bottle of 'Tears of Nature,' the majestic dragon's body disintegrated and reford under a halo of golden light. With the aid of transformation magic, he turned into a white-haired man clad in golden armor.

Though his body had shrunk, mbeli's aura had reached unprecedented heights. Gripping the Dragon King's Spear tightly in his hand, his veins bulged, and his eyes filled with bloodshot veins. All the magical power within him, including the strength produced by his burning soul and dragon's blood, converged rapidly onto his Spear.

mbeli's facial features started to twist, oozing blood.

As the power gathered, his body also reached its limit.

However,

This peerless warrior continued to dodge enemy attacks while gritting his teeth and channeling his own power.

On the other side,

With just a glance, Heretia understood mbeli's intention. She rushed to the forefront of the bloody butterflies without hesitation, attracting most of the enemy's attention. Then, sacrificing her right eye's vision and discarding her stamina, Heretia activated a forbidden spell known as "Crone - Heaven's Gate" under a halo of dazzling white light.

Instantly, tens of thousands of celestial beings like angels appeared on the savage battlefield at Heretia's command, and they launched an all-out attack on the black-haired girl!

With Heretia giving her all in covering him,

mbeli, the Sacred Dragon King, finished gathering his energy,

And found the perfect opportunity!

Taking advantage of the black-haired girl's focus on Heretia and the thorn sea and bloody butterflies busy dealing with the 'Angel Legion,' mbeli's eyes narrowed. He turned into a golden flash, raising a trendous wave of magical power and awe-inspiring dragon's might.

Under the boost of Heretia's domain supporting magic, mbeli's speed, strength, defense, and burst power all reached epic proportions in this split second.

"Aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!!"

Yelling at the top of his lungs, mbeli beca a golden streak with unstoppable force, breaking through the sea of thorns at an indiscernible speed. He thrust his radiant spear, capable of banishing all darkness, directly at the black-haired girl.

"Dieeeeeeeeeee!!!"

The next mont,

mbeli held his breath,

And under his tense and serious gaze, this attack, filled with all his might, did not disappoint him.

When the black-haired girl turned her body to look at mbeli, the golden spear suddenly stabbed toward her chest.

In an instant,

A bright golden light burst forth, quickly chasing away the suffocating red light in the sky. Power surged from the spear's tip, radiating in all directions and changing the landscape. The force was so massive that it even ripped through the fabric of space, creating cracks in the Skye around them.

At this mont, a violent and shocking collision occurred between the pale gold magical power and the crimson shadowy force.

Along with mbeli's furious roar,

The golden spear finally broke through the shadowy force's defense. Under the ecstatic gaze of the two unparalleled warriors, it violently pierced the black-haired girl's chest—penetrating her heart.

'Success... did we succeed?'

'We did it!'

'We won!'

Seeing that his full-powered strike had successfully pierced the enemy's chest, an ecstatic expression imdiately appeared on mbeli's face. They, who had once been in utter despair, saw a glimr of victory at this mont.

All he had to do,

Was to trigger the magical power within the Dragon King's Spear, and they would surely inflict heavy damage on the enemy!

Though the black-haired girl's defense was horrifyingly strong, if the explosion originated from inside her body, she would undoubtedly be unable to resist it. Even a powerful monster like her, the insides couldn't be invincible!

With this thought,

A fierce battle spirit suddenly erupted in mbeli's draconic eyes, and he tightly gripped his spear with both hands.

However,

Just as he decided to finish the fight once and for all, he was shocked to see that,

Even with a fatal wound, the expression on the black-haired girl's face remained indifferent, as if she were an emotionless doll. She stared at him with those eerily calm eyes, making him feel a shiver down his spine.

Then, out of nowhere,

Accompanied by an invisible force, a gut-wrenching pain suddenly shot up to mbeli's brain. In an instant, his face twisted in agony from the unbearable pain.

'What... what's going on?'

"What is happening?!"

In that mont,

mbeli's attack stopped abruptly,

He shakily lowered his head to look at his own chest, the source of the intense pain. And when the condition of his chest entered his field of vision, mbeli was suddenly frozen in place, overwheld with confusion, shock, and despair.

At that mont,

A deep, bottomless bloody hole had sohow appeared in the Sacred Dragon King's chest...

"How... how is this possible? She... she didn't do anything..."

As a strange red light danced in the eyes of the black-haired girl, an unseen force quietly covered the whole battlefield. Just as a sudden bloody hole ripped open in Sacred Dragon King mbeli's chest, Heretia, who was offering aerial cover from way up high, also coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Shock and disbelief filled Heretia's eyes, just like mbeli's.

Gazing at the mysterious bloody hole in her chest, Heretia was frozen in place. Even with her vast battle experience, she couldn't make sense of her sudden, severe injury.

She was far from the enemy, and there was no sign that her protective barriers had been broken.

"How did I get hurt?" Heretia muttered to herself.

But she had no more energy to think about it. As her blood kept flowing, the mage, whose heart was now shattered, began to feel death closing in. Her mind started to cloud over with darkness.

The magical circles around her suddenly fell apart, and Heretia, unable to fight it, plumted from the sky into a thorn-filled deathtrap below.

...

...

"Heretia..."

Watching his old friend plumt into a sea of thorns, unsure if she was alive or dead, mbeli clenched his jaw. His eyes, a blend of hatred and despair, fixated on the black-haired girl before him.

anwhile, mbeli's eyes also filled with confusion.

The whole situation was beyond his understanding.

mbeli couldn't figure it out.

His attack had successfully gone through the enemy, destroying her heart. So why was this black-haired girl still standing there like nothing happened, while he and Heretia were badly hurt out of nowhere?

She hadn't done a thing!

"What's going on here?"

"You! What did you do?!"

mbeli howled hysterically at the black-haired girl.

Though as a peak level 8 powerhouse, even if he lost his heart, mbeli could still use magic to create a makeshift one to sustain his body while awaiting regeneration. However, because he had put all his strength into his Spear, he had no energy left to sustain his badly injured body.

mbeli felt as though he could faintly see the path of the underworld.

Either way, he had charged forward prepared to risk the obliteration of his soul. In such a situation, he might as well go all-in against the enemy!

In that mont,

mbeli's eyes turned bloodshot. Ignoring the red butterflies swarming around him and the searing pain in his chest, he took a deep breath and released all the pent-up magical power in the Dragon King Spear, ready for mutual destruction.

He aid to penetrate the enemy's defenses with his Spear, going through the black-haired girl's body.

Then, by detonating the power within the Spear, he would channel a massive amount of energy into the girl's body, destroying this terrible Demon from inside.

This was the ultimate goal of mbeli and Heretia.

...

However,

Just as mbeli was gritting his teeth, waiting for the black-haired girl to explode, the Dragon King made an incredibly despairing discovery...

After releasing the violent power contained within his Spear...

Nothing happened...

The expected explosion didn't occur. The black-haired girl still looked at mbeli calmly, almost mocking him.

"This... this... this cannot... uh... huh?!"

Before mbeli could finish speaking, his eyes widened in surprise.

A sudden burst of intense heat started spreading through his chest, making his body inflate like a balloon.

'What?!'

'How...?!'

The next mont,

Overwheld with shock, anger, and despair, mbeli was consud by a wave of destructive energy bursting inside his body. He exploded into pieces, scattering his remains across the sky.

And mbeli's consciousness plunged into endless darkness.
