Chapter 436 Realization

"Kiii!" The bat got its wing impaled by the spike. It was the same spike Jonathan used to attack the demons. Noel simply threw it in his direction, and with the help of Hardening Rune, the spike was strong enough to injure a Peak Level Demon.

'What? How could he do that?' Richard was shocked that a mere wood could injure a Peak Level Demon. Even though the bat didn't seem to have tough skin, it was still a Peak Level Demon. Without applying some Spiritual Energy, it would only leave a scratch at best.

Yet, this one could impale it.

He was curious, but the other two demons had attacked him as if giving time for the bat to free itself.

The bat endured the pain and flew to the air, albeit its form had lost its stability. Due to its wing getting impaled, the bat's flying path leaned slightly to the left.

There was no way Richard won't take advantage of this advantage. He gathered a huge amount of power above him and formed a palm.

After that, he shot the palm forth, aiming slightly to the left of the bat. And when the bat tried to escape, it ended up flying straight to the palm.

"Kii?!" The bat gritted its teeth before covering its body with both wings, stopping the shock wave. However, the shock wave contained a raging wind. When it touched the bat's wings, it tried to rip it apart.

This time, the bat ended up with two half-destroyed wings.

It didn't expect that Richard could do something like this in a short amount of time.

However, the demons didn't know Richard was surprised as well.

'Tsk. That brat is a monster. Usually, I would have been the one leading the team and teaching them how to fight the enemies. This time, I have someone that supports me… Though, the worst part is that he's so overwhelming that I end up moving at his pace.' Richard clicked his tongue. He had realized that their roles had been reversed.

Despite being only a Spirit Wielder, Richard considered him an equal.

With that thought in mind, he changed his stance.

"In that case, let's make this a blast!" Richard smiled and spun his body while releasing the shock wave continuously.

It ended up turning into a tornado that tried to suck everything in.

The two injured bats tried to fly away while the centipede returned to the ground. The centipede could escape, but the two injured bats had a hard time moving away due to their broken wings.

Noel took that opportunity to send his Undying Fire straight to the tornado. The wind absorbed the fire and turned into a fire tornado.

The bats immediately felt the heat and wanted to escape. They didn't want to get burned alive.

But it was impossible to do anything in this scenario, especially when Noel released his chains. The targets were their wings.

As soon as their wings were restricted, the bats couldn't fly away anymore.

As a result, they got sucked into the tornado and the black flame soon spread all over their bodies.

Still, as one would expect from Peak Level Demons, they released all their strength for one last moment and let out a loud cry.

Their voices contained a vast amount of Spiritual Energy, releasing a powerful shock wave that neutralized the tornado and blew out the fire on their bodies.

Unfortunately for them, this opening was all Noel needed.

As soon as he got that opportunity, Noel went straight at the left bat and swung his sword.

"!!!" The bat noticed Noel and wanted to escape but was powerless to do it.

However, the centipede seemed to have understood Noel's attack patterns. When Noel was about to reach the bat, the centipede came out of the ground and attacked him from the side.

Surprisingly, Noel didn't even bother to look at the centipede. It looked like he couldn't react to him, but the centipede realized it wasn't the case when Richard appeared next to its head and struck its mouth.

"Chiii!" The centipede fell down.

At the same time, Noel reached the bat and waved his blade with his Ignition Sword, devouring the bat with his black fire.

"Kiiiii!" The bat was screaming in pain. The voice gradually weakened, showing the state of the bat.

Knowing its partner was about to die, the other bat endured all the injuries and flew straight at Noel. Even if it had to ram its body without using its power, the bat would do it as long as it could save its partner.

Noel had prepared for this and moved behind the fire. This way, the bat would have to loop around first if he wanted to attack him.

"!!!" The bat was infuriated by Noel's action. It released its sound wave to stop Noel.

Noel felt the pain Richard had experienced earlier. Instead of taking it head-on, Noel actually ran away, trying to escape from the sound wave.

The bat was relieved at first and tried to check its partner's condition. It gathered its power to blow away the fire.

But that was when another spike fell on top of the bat, impaling its body.

"Kiii!" The burned bat let out its last shrill before it died.

Noel completely overwhelmed it by taking advantage of the messy battlefield.

Richard was shocked by Noel's ability, but there was one more person who had been observing Noel, and from a better position.

He was Jonathan.

Jonathan couldn't help but furrow his eyebrows when he saw Noel's movement.

'Huh… That kind of judgment, his shrewdness, and his timing… Why does it feel familiar?' Jonathan thought for a moment before coming to a big realization.

"!!!" Jonathan gasped. He answered inwardly, 'Don't tell me. Iadre is Noel? That's right. Even though the masquerade can cover his face, he can't change the condition of his skin, his movement, his height… His build is slightly buffed, but the rest is similar to him.

'Now that I think about it, Rose seems to have gradually overcome her sadness after he appeared… As expected, Iadre is Noel.'
