Chapter 594: Death Sentence

Boom~2

As soon as the flames filled up the fall, sounds of the walls being broken responded. 

The ones who were able to protect themselves,cast a barrier around their bodies to protect themselves. However, the ones who couldn't do it, broke the wall and flew outside, to get away from those flames. 

Unfortunately for them, the flames appeared to be alive, chasing after them. 

At the same time, the earthquake kept getting stronger and stronger, as if the Ancient Golems were getting closer. 

"Stop it!" The Patriarch of Stein Clan exclaimed, his voice getting louder. A burst of aura came out of his body. His aura strengthened, as his body was surrounded by a strange soul energy. 

The Energy Blast didn't differentiate between friends and foes. Even the Elders of the Stein Clan were sent back, coughing out blood. 

Gabriel brought his hands together, casting a Barrier of Light. However even that barrier wasn't completely intact under the energy blast as multiple cracks developed on it. 

Raphael, raised his hand, forming a flaming sword which he stabbed on the ground, to firmly maintain his footing. 

The energy blast sent multiple people flying back. 

"That was...Soul Energy?" Gabriel's expressions darkened. He wasn't concerned about his weakened barrier. Instead, his thoughts were more focused on the strange energy, which matched something he had read in the book he recently received from Shadow Garden. 

The so-called inheritance contained the method of using living beings to create the Ancient Golems. But in that, there was also another method, which allowed one to harvest the soul energy for themselves!

Looking at the Soul Energy, Gabriel realized what was happening here! The Patriarch of the Stein Clan already had portions of the so-called inheritance from his founder. 

Unfortunately for him, the method he received wasn't complete, making him unable to create Ancient Golems. But it still allowed him to use Soul Energy. 

That made it clear to Gabriel! The Patriarch of the Stein Clan knew just what kind of cruelty lied inside that inheritance yet he didn't hesitate in order to gain strength!

The more Gabriel saw that man, the more he felt as if he was looking at the Goddess of Light. The two had so many similarities, as both were willing to do anything to get strength. 

"To think that you would force me to use this power!" The Patriarch of the Stein Clan exclaimed, frowning. 

A Spirit Armor appeared around him, which made it almost impossible for the black flames to harm him.

"You should've taken my offer when I was being nice to you!" He spoke. 

"A method to use Soul Energy in such a way, without having that element... It's quite fascinating to see it in real life..." 

Standing inside the castle in the middle of nowhere, Karyk kept the two pills in his hand safely, once again not eating it. 

At this point, he was only waiting for the next five months to be over so he could directly be taken to the Central World without having to do anything. 

However, since he had nothing better to do in the Palace, he often took interest in what was happening on Gabriel's side and every time he did that, he found something interesting. 

Since he could be considered the God of Death, he could easily use the souls he collected in a similar manner. However, their methods were different at their core. 

Karyk didn't need to forcefully take any souls. Everything was natural for him. However, to see another using something similar in real life was fascinating for him. 

"You know that weakness of the Soul Armor, don't you?" He asked, gazing at the beautiful sun in the distance. 

For the Stein Clan Patriarch to use this method before them was similar for someone using their own weapon against them... A weapon that they knew everything about, including its strength and weaknesses. 

"Who could know better than me?" Gabriel replied, watching the blue flames slowly disappear. 

"Me." Karyk answered jokingly. "Anyway, make sure to deal with them swiftly. I noticed some movements here. They've probably sensed the aura of my Death Generals. It'll only be a matter of a few moments, before they locate you. So get out of here after you're done."

Even Karyk didn't know what it was, but he had slowly started treating Gabriel like a real little brother, even though both of them were part of the same soul. He didn't have any intention of just sitting idly and watching Gabriel get hurt. 

"I've no intention of wasting time either..." Gabriel nodded. 

The Ancient Golems had finally reached the Mansion of the Stein Clan. 

The members of the Stein Clan were stunned as to what was happening. Why were the Golems moving suddenly? 

Their faces were covered in shock when they watched the Golems before them. 

The Warriors of the Clan remained dazed. However, it was only when one of the Elders told them that the Ancient Golems were under someone else's control that they realized. 

"Hold them back until we take care of the intruder!" The Stein Clan Elder exclaimed. 

"We hold them back?" The Warriors of the Clan were momentarily frozen in place, looking at the massive golems. 

These golems were the reason that even the strongest clans didn't easily attack them. And now they had to hold these golems back? Was it any different from asking them to die?

But they knew they had to obey their Elders command. So, they took their weapons and surrounded the golems, bracing themselves for the attack. 

The golems slowly started to move, their massive limbs making the ground shake beneath the feet of the Clan warriors. The Warriors knew that they needed a plan, and fast. They couldn't take on these golems head-on; they needed to find their weaknesses.

Unfortunately, who knew better than them that the only person who knew the weakness of these Golems was probably the patriarch. There was no way the weakness was going to be known by others, since no one wanted that information to leak.
