Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

"What?! Do you think we will just give the Celestials to your side?! You don't even look like a human! Look at your face! Do you think any Celestial would want to come with you?!" Patriarch Leon burst out in anger as soon as he heard the man's words.

He was already infuriated by the fact that he was momentarily captivated by the man's face so as soon as he heard that he wanted to take away their Celestials, he immediately wanted to curse the man.

In any case, he is at the center of the group so if a battle broke out, he should be able to defend himself.

He doesn't believe that these humans would be able to win against two-digit Celestial Beings!

Thyrus looked at him with an approving glance. Although he didn't show it, he was also angered by Altairs' words.

"Altair… I don't care what your position is in the Demonic Cult. You should consider where you are right now… You're outside the Cult's territory and you'll regret it if you provoke us more."

As soon as he finished speaking, he signaled to the whole squad to prepare for battle. There was no way they would just let them pass with those insulting words.

"Ho~ So you won't peacefully hand them over to us? I guess we have no other choice but to kill you all." Altair finally showed his real face. He stopped doing his fake expression and smiled evilly at Thyrus' groups.

Professor Levent noticed that the battle was about to start so she swiftly activated the Formation Cores that were laid out on the battlefield.

When she noticed the presence of the cult members a while ago, she stealthily arranged a Formation Art around them since she felt that they might cause some trouble.

Luckily, her intuition was correct and she could protect the squad even more…

She took out ten large Mana Crystals in her pocket and triggered the Formation before the Cult Members could even react.

"Excellent River Dragon Formation…"

Suddenly, a huge formation that covers over 200 meters was activated.

This formation requires the use of several River Dragon Scales… That's right! This is a Formation Art that uses the power of a Mythical Beast!

At first, the cult members didn't care about it as they just continued with their attacking formation.

"My squad will suppress the Celestials! The first and second squads will deal with the Grand Magus! The third and fourth will deal with the Grand Knights!"

Altair declared.

They actually have four squads with nine members each… The squad that Altair is part of seems to be the strongest as they dared to deal with the seven Celestial Beings.

Altair and his squad suddenly released a menacing energy that started to disrupt the flow of mana within the surroundings. Perhaps, even Celestial Energy can be suppressed by this!

Luna frowned after seeing this…

It is completely different from the Moonlight Energy of the Demihumans just now…

She could feel the Aether from them!

It wasn't only that, it seems like a combination of other energy!

"This is Bloodlust and Aether according to Sir Vincent… Be careful!" Millie suddenly spoke.

Most of them have heard about Bloodlust which is the specialty of the Demonic Cult. As for the Aether, many of them weren't familiar with it since they have rarely fought someone with such an ability.

"So that's it… No wonder you're confident… You think that having Aether is enough to deal with us?" Agatha spoke out as she disliked the fact that these humans were underestimating their Celestial Race…

Even if they can be suppressed by Aether, it will only happen if the Aether is more than their Celestial Energy!

"We'll engage in close combat… Kill them…"

Luna announced. The reason they allowed the Demonic Cult to get closer was for this moment after all. Although they were 50 meters away, this short distance can be easily passed with their speed and weapons!

Soon, a battle between the Demonic Cult and the Werewolf Slayer Squad started.

"You will all die!" Altair shouted as he knows how powerful they are. Although he told them that he was only a low-ranking member, that is certainly far from the truth.

Soon, they started suppressing everyone with their Bloodlust and Aether!

None of the Grand Magus can properly use their Mana Arts… Tier 1 Arts would easily disappear, Tier 2 Arts were only effective for three to five seconds, and Tier 3 Arts weren't even possible for some reason. It was as if converting mana to an element is completely prohibited while fighting the Demonic Cult members!

No wonder the Martial Arts Alliance which uses marvelous Martial Techniques was the one dealing with the Cult.

Only Tier 4 Mana Arts were somehow usable and their Tier 5 Mana Arts… However, using Tier 5 Mana Arts means that they will suffer some backlash after it's over.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The Grand Knights who weren't very much affected by the suppressive energy of the cult members stepped forward and blocked the enemies…

They used various sword techniques allowing them to cover a wider range… Their move bought enough time for Professor Levent to control Formation Art which she just activated.

"Hmmm?" Altair suddenly noticed that the Formation that he thought was ineffective against them suddenly burst with power...

He soon regretted not targeting Levent himself as he saw a dragon claw aiming at his squad!

He wanted to scold the squads that should be dealing with her but he doesn't have the time to do so…

He weakened the Aether and Bloodlust that were surrounding the Celestials and raised his palm to block the Dragon Claw.

Of course, there was no way he can catch the claw since it was three times bigger than himself. He activated the Artifact on his wrist and his palm suddenly produced a huge fireball…

"Don't think that this Dragon Claw can stop me!" He declared with certainty as he released the fireball…

Boom!

The explosion caused stopped the momentum of both sides… This had actually surprised Altair since he was thinking that the fireball produced by his artifact would easily dissipate the dragon claw and continue destroying everything in its path…

This is what happened before after all…

But he was momentarily at a loss, he realized that the Celestials suddenly disappeared from his senses!

"Not good! Everyone, shatter the beads! Now!"
