Chapter 953 You Can't Escape Your Fate
Villain Ch 953. You Can't Escape Your Fate
The battlefield was eerily quiet for a moment. It was a tense, expectant silence. But Arcana and Azura knew it was just the calm before the storm. The sound of gravel falling from the cracked pillar was like a cue, a harbinger of the chaos to come.
Without warning, Allen used his Shadow Step and disappeared from their sight. The sudden absence of his towering, demonic form left an unsettling void. Arcana and Azura turned around simultaneously, predicting Allen's next move. They were right, but Allen was already mid-swing, his sword arcing down toward them with terrifying speed and precision.
"Move!" Arcana shouted, his voice tinged with panic. He and Azura leaped in opposite directions, narrowly avoiding the deadly blade. They felt the rush of wind from the swing, the sheer force of it palpable even though it missed its mark.
- BAM!
The sword crashed into the floor with a deafening impact, sending a shockwave through the ground. The stone beneath them cracked and splintered, a massive fissure spreading out from the point of impact. Debris flew in all directions, and the explosion sounded like a thunderclap, echoing through the hall.
Arcana rolled to his feet, his shield raised defensively. His breath came in ragged gasps, the adrenaline surging through his veins. He knew one hit was enough to reduce his HP by more than half or even kill him instantly. "We need to keep moving! We can't let him get the upper hand!" he called out to Azura, his voice resolute despite the fear gnawing at the edges of his mind.
Azura, her daggers at the ready, nodded. "Got it. Stay sharp," she replied, her voice steady but tense. She could still feel the residual pain from her earlier wounds, but she pushed it aside, focusing on the fight at hand.
Allen straightened, his eyes glowing with malevolent intent. He surveyed the damage with a cold, satisfied smirk. "Running won't save you," he taunted, his voice echoing with a chilling resonance. "You can't escape your fate."
The words were heavy and oppressive. Arcana and Azura knew he was right; running wouldn't save them. They had to fight, and they had to be smarter and faster than ever before.
"Valkyrie, flank him!" Arcana commanded through gritted teeth. His voice, though strained, held a clear determination. "We have to hit him together."
Nodding, Azura moved with swift agility, circling to Allen's other side. They had to rely on that instinctual coordination now more than ever.
Allen watched them with a bemused expression, his eyes glinting with cruel amusement. "Futile," he muttered under his breath, readying himself for the final onslaught.
Arcana and Azura moved in unison, attempting to flank Allen from both sides. Arcana charged forward with his shield, aiming to protect himself from Allen's sword. Azura, daggers at the ready, darted in from the side, aiming for the vital points she hoped would bring the Devil Emperor down.
Allen turned his focus to Arcana first. With a swift, powerful strike, he brought his sword down on the paladin's shield. The force of the blow was immense, and Arcana's shield, designed to withstand heavy attacks, began to crack. Allen didn't stop there; he pressed his assault, swinging his sword with relentless fury. Each impact sent shockwaves through Arcana's arm, weakening his grip and resolve.

Arcana gritted his teeth, fighting through the pain. "We won't let you win!" he shouted, trying to muster the strength to hold his ground. But Allen's next strike was devastating.
- CRACK!
The sword pierced through the shield, creating a gaping hole. Arcana staggered back, his eyes wide with shock and fear.
Allen's lips curled into a vicious smile. "It's over," he said coldly. He lunged forward, his sword finding its mark.
