The Adventures of an Overpowered Knight in Another World Chapter 599- The Shocking News

.

The massive beast exhibited bizarre motions and underwent swift transformations.

Not only that—numerous eyes sprouted across its form, while a enormous maw capable of devouring whole cities materialized on its surface.

Soon, it would evolve into a mobile bastion of doom, endlessly birthing demons.

Erza, at the forefront of the group, gazed upon the nest with a complicated expression. She didn't linger in that mood for long.

The assembled commanders readied their assault when abruptly, the sky over Lunaris tore apart.

Swords gripped tightly, they froze mid-pose, staring blankly upward.

Then BOOM! Like a bloated balloon, the nest's body exploded, a column of white vapor surging forth from inside.

The pillar stabbed through the nest and pierced the very heavens.

In that instant, the world blazed with light.

Chaos raged outside, yet ironically, silence enveloped the nest's interior.

Regeneration efforts were futile; this wasn't a mere surface gash—it ravaged from within.

Reinhardt stood motionless, eyes fixed on where Sir Giacomo had stood.

His techniques all delivered stunning visuals, but [Ascendant Strike] eclipsed the rest.

That final blow far exceeded what one foe demanded.

Even he sensed the air's persistent warp, the subtle tremor from that colossal power.

For ordinary enemies—even peak-level ones—a basic [Exalted Strike] would suffice.

By contrast, [Ascendant Strike] packed greater might and struck without mercy or target.

A swelling catastrophe that couldn't be granted even a sliver of chance to escape here.

The nest's demise loomed in moments; no reversal possible.

Beyond her dazed stupor, her flesh showed no cuts or blemishes.

As Reinhardt approached, she gaped at him in confusion, brain reeling from the scene she'd beheld.

Cecilia blinked, as though yanked back from afar, and offered a tentative nod.

Reinhardt nodded back, stowing the halo in his [Dimensional Storage].

Then he guided her from the nest's depths.

Cecilia affirmed once more.

Silently, she regarded the man who'd braved this infernal pit for her sake.

Yet her instincts whispered she could rely on him.

Thankfully, quiet suited the moment.

Reinhardt forged ahead, Cecilia trailing two paces behind.

Outside reigned utter pandemonium.

"Did you see the sky?! Did it really crack or are my eyes playing tricks on me?"

"Could it be caused by an attack?"

Uproar gripped the knights until a sudden shout pierced the din.

All gazes snapped to the distant nest shrouding the city.

Ash flaked from its fringes, dissolving into nothingness.

Demons crumbled to ash upon death, and now the same fate unfolded right before their eyes.

"It’s dying?! The nest is dying!"

Wonder and skepticism swept the throng.

Clashing with that monstrosity—who could predict the horrific losses?

Other knight orders puzzled over the nest's vanquisher, yet they instantly knew that startling force.

None but their commander could wield it.

Arms folded, cloak whipping in the gale behind, she radiated stunning heroic grace.

Her eyes gleamed cold, shrewd, unflappable.

The blow that sundered the firmament.

Such raw power—its core she recognized intimately.

She tsked softly.

Moments later, two forms stepped from the Abyss Nest's half-crumbling husk.

Moreover, their casual stride suggested mere leisure amid the Abyss Nest.

Temple of Light knights spotted the lead figure and swarmed him instantly.

Reinhardt shared brief words with his subordinates before striding to the distant encampment.

Earlier, seeing Temple of Light emerge from the nest's jaws had stunned onlookers.

Knights reeled in shock, but commanders' visages twisted far more intricately.

Facing that man now, they dared not lift eyes to his.

"Had you come up any later, we would have to fetch your corpse from the ruins."

Eyeing the utterly unscathed Reinhardt, shock bloomed deep inside her.

Reinhardt offered no reply; he just shifted aside, unveiling the figure skulking in his shadow.
