Betrayed by the Succubus, I Raise a Twelve-winged Angel

Chapter 300 - 301: Aster Grant, You’d Better Stay Alive!

The homeland of The Swarm.

The atmosphere of the entire world suddenly froze, as if even time had halted at this moment.

Several massive, indescribably large Swarm creatures floated silently, surrounded by unsettling Void Power.

They were constantly trembling, digesting the information transmitted by the previous two Totem-Class Insectoids.

Since the Void Power wielded by Totem-Class Insectoids was all granted by them.

Thus, every time a Totem-Class Insectoid fell, that wisp of Void Power would carry its final memories....

Penetrating through layers of the void, returning to their consciousness.

At this moment, after reading the memories filled with destruction and resentment, a cold and majestic voice slowly rose:

"The Elven Race... has mastered such power that restrains our kind!"

"That anomaly of an elf must not be left."

"Allowing her to continue to grow will surely become a grave threat to our Swarm."

"No," at this point, a completely different voice interrupted the consensus,

"The key is not the elf, but that human—"

"That elf merely gained her strange ability under his protection."

"Therefore, I propose... prioritizing the elimination of that human."

"As long as the human is dead, the remaining elves pose no threat."

Upon hearing this, the Swarm Kings simultaneously fell into silence, as if weighing fiercely in that boundless sea of awareness.

A moment later, an indisputable command thundered out:

"Kill that human, at all costs, act immediately!"

The Swarm could never allow the existence of a ’nemesis,’ regardless of their race or location.

At the moment the order was given, the entire Swarm world suddenly seemed to awaken.

Countless Swarm—from the lowest-tier workers to the nest lords guarding various places—all raised their heads simultaneously, dark energy surging from within them, converging into the sky like countless rivers flowing into the sea.

The sky began to warp and tear apart, a void passage dozens of miles long gradually taking shape.

This was a path of destruction forged by ripping through the world’s barriers with the combined power of the entire Swarm, crossing the Endless Void.

Just as the passage solidified, the Swarm King who spoke first slowly thrust out a colossal tortoise claw—

Where it passed, everything perished, laws collapsed, and even light could not escape, becoming utterly void.

....

Meanwhile, the Snow Wolf Clan had fully retreated.

Aster Grant had also given orders for Veridia, Scarlett, Elara Silverwood, and other Beastbond creatures to assist Vera with her task.

Only Sally was left to stay temporarily inside the Beastbond Space due to special circumstances.

At this moment, only Lazuli remained by his side to ensure his safety.

Under another meaningful glance from Aster Grant, Lilith finally braced herself and tentatively said:

"Ellie... have you ever thought about living differently?"

She raised this question as gently as possible.

After all, the Snow Maiden had previously declared she would never become a human’s Beastbond.

Hearing this, the Snow Maiden looked at Lilith with some surprise, then turned her head to Aster Grant, immediately understanding the meaning behind these words—

It was an invitation for her to trust this human and become his Beastbond.

To be honest, she had never had such a thought before.

But after the Swarm’s invasion, the Snow Maiden’s ideas had quietly shifted.

After all, she was just a supportive-type Beastbond, truly unable to support the entire Snow Kingdom alone.

Using the Swarm to balance the Demon Clan was nothing more than temporary strategy.

No one could predict how long such a balance could last.

Thus, faced with Lilith’s question, the Snow Maiden fell silent.

For her, following this human might be a better choice than fighting alone.

She had already witnessed with her own eyes his extraordinary talent—

She could hardly find another transcendent like him throughout the Otherworld.

Being his Beastbond would not disgrace her identity.

Moreover, Aster Grant also had Lilith by his side...

The Snow Maiden suddenly lifted her head, her gaze fixed straight at Aster Grant.

And Aster Grant did not avoid it, but merely calmly met her gaze.

A moment later, the Snow Maiden took a deep breath as if making a decision, and slowly began to speak—

But just then...

"Crack! Crack!"

The sound of the void fracturing pierced the silence, the world suddenly engulfed in pure darkness.

A pitch-black spatial tunnel, stretching for dozens of miles, was slowly taking shape above the firmament.

The aura of destruction and desolation poured out like a tide from the depths of the tunnel, stripping life from everything it touched.

Their faces changed dramatically.

"Aster Grant, something’s wrong! This aura... it’s the Swarm!"

Lilith shouted in shock, abruptly turning her head, only to see Aster Grant’s whole body frozen, unable to move.

And at this moment...

Aster Grant’s gaze was locked firmly onto the void passage in the sky—

It was coming for him.

His blood nearly stagnated, his breathing labored.

If he hadn’t advanced to the Monarch Level, the mere pressure from this aura would have been enough to kill him instantly.

He clenched his teeth, using all his strength to slightly shift his line of sight, seeing Lilith and the Snow Maiden unaffected by the aura.

Evidently, this destructive targeting was solely directed at him.

"Want... to kill me?"

Aster Grant’s teeth ground together with a grating noise, his body trembling uncontrollably, bloodshot eyes.

With utmost willpower, he fought against the invisible oppression that threatened to crush him.

"Emperor’s Might—!!"

With an unyielding spirit, he forcibly broke free from the aura’s grasp for a brief moment!

Without any hesitation, Aster Grant instantly activated his Sovereign Talent.

A surge of azure spiritual power streamed through him like armor.

Under the triple increase of attributes, he barely reclaimed a sliver of control over his body.

From the depths of the void passage came a slight sound of surprise.

But Aster Grant had no time to care.

The instant he regained movement, he shouted hoarsely:

"Lilith—take the Snow Maiden, Lazuli, Sally... and escape!!"

Before the words were fully out, he had forcibly summoned Lazuli and Sally from the Beastbond Space.

The passage in the sky had not fully stabilized, the aura still firmly locking onto him.

He keenly felt:

This opponent was far beyond any he had faced before.

All strategies, all plans, were mere dust in front of such an existence.

He could not... let them die with him here.

"Escape quickly—!!"

Aster Grant shouted again, snapping Lilith back to her senses.

Without hesitation, she grabbed Sally and the Snow Maiden, but as she reached for Lazuli, Lazuli abruptly dodged.

"I want to stay with Master!"

"You take them away!"

In Lazuli’s eyes was a determination never seen before—

Even in death, she wanted to stay by Aster Grant’s side.

Lilith clenched her fists tightly, nails almost embedded in her palm.

She quickly turned to the Snow Maiden and Sally—

If she couldn’t take Lazuli away, she must protect the other two at all costs.

Sally wanted to struggle to stay, but in front of Lilith, she had no power to resist and was instantly knocked unconscious.

In the next moment, dense blood light burst from Lilith, enveloping her, the Snow Maiden, and Sally together.

Her figure shot away like a bloody rainbow, leaving behind a shout that echoed between heaven and earth:

"Damn it, Aster Grant! I signed a Blood Covenant with you!"

"If you die, I won’t survive either—"

"Fight with your life to survive!"
