Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse novel Chapter 60

Chapter 60 - Mercy?

Hunters and beasts overlooking the battlefield had moved away from each other as they watched the apocalyptic scene

A majestic dragon was being cornered and showered with an abundance of unbelievably destructive spells.

At the same time, a grotesque beast was pouncing on the dragon and shredding the scales on its body to a bleeding mess as its poison spread

The dragon crushed to the ground as one of its wings had been torn. Spurts of flames blew out of its mouth as the energy around it bubbled.

The grotesque beast ignored all of this as it continued to rain attacks on the body of the dragon, its body releasing noxious blasts of gas every now and then. The strong body of the dragon gradually could not endure and a voice was heard

"Please..."

---

My voice was low, but it was aimed at a specific person in the skies. My energy reserves were at the lowest as this horrendous creature continued its relentless attacks.

The wound I incurred as I desced down had flared up and was causing me to not be able to focus. I repeated again

"Please, stop."

We were of the same positions. Our lands were invaded and taken over, our people forced to submit and pioneer other worlds. I just wanted to make things a bit better for my people.

The man looked down at me coldly. His summon had stopped ravaging me for this instant.

"Do you know how many people you and your forces have killed?"

I turned somber as I heard this question

"I know, but our hands were forced."

We really were backed into a corner. I couldn’t even bear the treatment that the royal family was receiving, how much worse would it be for the commoners?

"No. Your actions are your own responsibility"

The man shook his head as if I were wasting his time. I had to try harder if I wanted to come of this alive. My brain was working overtime as I tried to find a way out of this

"The beings that sent me here, they will send more once they know of my failure. I can work with you to fight off the ones that come in the future."

Right. Any sane person would want help for droves of coming enemies. Even if I had to heel under somebody’s else’s boots, I could at least survive for the time being. I waited with ragged breaths as I looked to the human in the skies

Only two words rang out.

"No thanks."

Two words that spelled my end.

My emotions churned as I saw the poisonous creature lunge towards me again. Anger. Frustration. Despair. That was all I felt. _{frёeweɓηovel.coɱ}

Why?! Why did things have to go this way for us? Enslaved or killed, we couldn’t change our fates!

My defenses could no longer withstand the creature’s strikes. I couldn’t form anymore mana barriers around me. My reserves were depleted.

In a few seconds, my right wing was torn off. The excruciating pain actually dulled as I fell down deeper into despair.

I’m sorry everyone. I wasn’t able to do it.
