Villain Ch 950. One Player Vs One Guild [Part 7]
The guild members had learned from their previous mistakes. This time, they did not cast their skills all at once. Instead, they attacked in waves, coordinating their efforts to maintain a constant barrage. This more structured approach kept the smoke and debris from becoming overwhelming, ensuring their vision remained clear. Explore more stories at My Virtual Library Empire
Arrows flew through the air in steady volleys. Between the archers' attacks, the magic users cast their spells, timing their releases to create a relentless rhythm of destruction. Fireballs burst with fiery intensity, ice shards shimmered with a deadly chill, and bolts of lightning crackled with electric fury.
The ground beneath Allen's feet trembled with the force of the magic, and the air was thick with the smell of ozone and burning debris.
Amidst the chaos, Elio continued to rally his guild. "Keep up the pressure! Don't give him a moment to recover!" His voice was a beacon of determination, guiding his comrades through the maelstrom.
Allen's barrier absorbed the brunt of the attacks, but the sustained assault began to take its toll. The barrier flickered and strained under the continuous onslaught. Yet… Allen's smirk remained, though his eyes showed a flicker of irritation. "Impressive," he muttered, acknowledging their improved tactics. He couldn't let them maintain this momentum.
With a sudden burst of energy, he deactivated his barrier and activated his Shadow Step skill, disappearing from sight.
The sudden absence of their target caused a momentary pause in the guild's assault. Confused murmurs spread through the ranks as they searched for any sign of the Devil Emperor. The tension was palpable, each second feeling like an eternity. They knew Allen had used his Shadow Step skill and would appear behind them.

"Where is he?" a guild member whispered, his voice trembling with unease.
"Stay alert," Elio commanded, his eyes scanning the battlefield. "He's using the shadows. Don't let your guard down."
"Check the flanks!" another member shouted, turning quickly to cover his side. "He has to be here somewhere!"
"He's not behind us!" a scholar called out, her eyes wide with fear as she turned in circles, searching for any sign of Allen.
The looming shadow above them made them realize where he was. As they turned their gazes upward, their eyes widened in horror. Allen was above them, hovering in mid-air with his demonic wings wide open. His hand was outstretched, and flames danced in his palm. A wicked grin spread across his face.
"Above!" Elio shouted, pointing upward. "He's above us!"
"Get ready!" a healer cried, her voice filled with desperation as she began to cast a barrier spell.
Allen's voice echoed through the hall, dripping with malevolence. "Hellfire Rain."
Flames erupted from his hand, spreading out into a storm of fiery meteors that rained down upon the battlefield. The heat was intense, a wave of scorching energy that promised destruction.
"Defend yourselves!" Elio yelled, his voice rising above the roar of the flames. The magic users hastily conjured ice spells, trying to counteract the searing heat. Ice shards formed in the air, aimed at intercepting the fiery meteors, but they were too slow.
The first of the Hellfire Rain struck the ground with explosive force, sending shockwaves through the ranks of the guild members. The impact was deafening, a series of thunderous booms that rattled the very stones of the hall. Fire spread rapidly, consuming everything in its path.
Healers frantically cast barriers, shimmering shields of light attempting to block the deadly onslaught. "Hold the line!" one healer shouted, sweat pouring down her face as she poured all her energy into maintaining the barrier. But it was too late. The Hellfire Rain was relentless, piercing through the defenses with ease.
The screams of the injured and dying filled the air. The smell of burning flesh and scorched earth was overwhelming. The ground was littered with the charred remains of those caught in the inferno.
Amidst the chaos, Elio fought to maintain order. "Fall back! Regroup by the pillars!" he commanded, trying to pull his remaining forces together. There were only five of them left and most of them were tanks. His voice was strained, the weight of the situation pressing heavily on him.
"We need to counterattack!" a mage shouted, her eyes wild with fear and determination. "We can't just sit here and die!"
"Stay focused!" Elio barked, his eyes never leaving Allen. "We need to survive this first!"
Allen watched from above, his eyes gleaming with sadistic pleasure. He descended slowly, his wings folding as he landed gracefully amidst the devastation. The heat from the flames radiated off him, creating an aura of palpable menace.
Elio met Allen's gaze, his eyes burning with defiance. "You won't break us," he said, his voice low but resolute. "We'll fight until our last breath." 'Just a scratch…. A scratch is fine for me,' he prayed that he could land a hit on the emperor. At least, it was a sign that the gap between his and Allen's skills wasn't insurmountable.
Allen chuckled darkly, his expression one of mocking amusement. "I welcome the challenge," he replied, his voice cold and menacing. "But playtime is over." Boredom had crept in, and he wanted to end this battle.
Without further ado, Allen moved forward, his steps measured and deliberate. Each footfall seemed to reverberate through the hall. He raised his sword, the blade gleaming ominously in the flickering firelight.
Elio lunged forward, his sword aimed at Allen's chest. The sound of steel cutting through the air was sharp and clear. Allen sidestepped effortlessly, his movements fluid and precise. He swung his sword in a counterattack, aiming for Elio's side.
Elio parried the blow, the impact sending a jolt up his arm. The clang of their swords meeting rang out, a harsh, metallic sound that echoed. He pushed back, trying to gain some distance, but Allen was relentless.
Allen's blade moved with terrifying speed, each strike calculated and deadly. The sound of their clashing swords was a constant barrage, a symphony of battle that filled the air. Elio fought with everything he had, his sword moving in a desperate flurry as he tried to keep up with Allen's relentless assault.
