Destruction Angel Summoned After Being Dead For 500 Years Finds Love
Chapter 16: The Balekon

Declan stood in front of the door that led to the Headmaster's office, it is in there that his target Lord Arsenon Regnum was currently having a courtesy call from the Headmaster himself.

Declan despised assassination jobs, he believed that it is a cowardly way of disposing ones enemies. He preferred fighting face to face, as to show respect to your opponents.

He closed his eyes and smiled inwardly, anticipating the battle that was about to happen, he just hoped that this man would live up to the reputation he had heard. Finally, the angel issued his challenge.

"LORD ARSENON REGNUM, COME OUT! YOUR DEATH IS AT HAND!"

Declan raised his right knee towards his chest, then with a snap, thrust his right foot forward while shifting his weight on his hips for added power, hitting the door with a resounding crash.

The heavy wooden door, banded with steel, was completely destroyed by the force of his kick. When the dust settled, Declan finally saw his target, still inside the office but already on his guard.

"Looks like you are a big one… I sure hope you would provide me with more entertainment that that orc I killed…" the angel smugly declared.

Lord Ars Regnum did not reply to the taunting of the angel, instead, he began to assess his bat-winged foe, a being he had never seen before.

The gold eyes suggest an angel, but the bat wings don't make any sense at all, confusing the large man.

He was facing a very dangerous opponent, he was very sure of that. Even without the skill of sense, he can definitely feel the malice creeping up and giving him a cold chill on his spine.

But it takes more than that to intimidate a man like Arsenon Regnum, they don't call him the Red Lightning for nothing.

A huge man, standing at six foot four inches tall, and weighing two hundred sixty pounds of pure muscle, he was indeed a behemoth of a man, with long reddish brown hair framing his well chiseled face and sporting a mustache that connects into mutton chop sideburns.

"I don't know who you are, friend… I do not even recall if I had ever slighted you. Why would you want to kill someone who has done you no wrong?" Lord Regnum reasoned to the angel, avoiding trouble if he could.

"It doesn't matter, I was tasked by the master to get rid of you, so I will... but nothing personal though, only business"

Faster than anything that Lord Regnum had ever seen in his life, the angel was already in front of him before he even realized it moved, a sharp roundhouse kick flying towards his face. Superb reflexes were the only thing that saved Ars' life that time, as he was able to quickly duck the angel's blow by a hair's breadth.

He used this opportunity to rise, tackle and drag Declan forward with a powerful force before throwing him off, causing the angel to backtrack outside the Headmaster's office.

Lord Regnum then calmly followed the angel outside, in his mind, he was thinking that an open field seemed more advantageous to him, since he controled many powerful lightning spells.

"You… Surely I heard you say that your target is me, right?" The mighty Lord asked the angel.

"Yes only you" Declan replied

Then Lord Regnum calmly took off his heavy black coat and tossed it aside. He then folded the sleeves of his shirt.

"Then you wouldn't mind letting these people behind me go, since they have nothing to do with me right?" Ars pointed his finger towards the Headmaster and the faculty of the school who were standing still, unable to move due to fear.

"Of course they can go. I have no business with them." The angel nodded in agreement. "This fight doesn't concern others. This is between the hunter and the prey."

The Headmaster and the faculty took this chance to run as far away from the conflict as possible. Miss Anne and the other teachers then proceeded to go to the school buildings to get their students to safety, not knowing the danger that awaits them in the form of a green slime.

"Now that there are no longer innocent people near us, Lord Regnum, you no longer have to hold yourself back." Declan stated with confidence.

Ars Regnum well knows that this was a fight to the death, he will go all out like there is no tomorrow, knowing that if he loses this fight, his son would be all alone, and that is unacceptable.

He took a small round cord from his pocket, then used it to tie his...
