Ultraman: The Dark Shadow Mage, Creating a Magic Empire

Chapter 118 Belial: It's a strategic retreat, of course! (4k)

"Leo, Astra, don't create unnecessary bloodshed."

The King of Ultra appeared before Leo, and the moment he appeared, Jack and Ultraman were pulled behind him.

"King of Ultra!? Retreat!"

Leo was shocked when he saw the King of Ultra, never expecting him to appear here!

The King of Ultra is an important being marked by the Shadow Empire.

Every member of the Shadow Empire who has reached a certain level knows about the existence and power of the King of Ultra. Therefore, the Imperial Army stipulates that everyone is allowed to evacuate immediately and unconditionally upon seeing the King of Ultra!

The moment Leo saw the King of Ultra, he wanted to open a portal and teleport Astra to him.

Unfortunately, when the King of Ultra appeared here, he discovered the fixed portal and destroyed it directly.

"It seems there's someone quite ordinary standing behind you. Is it Belial, or that mysterious powerful figure?"

The King of Ultra was also surprised when Leo called out his name.

Belial did not use the Ultimate Battle Device in the battle just now.

The gap between the two sides is so vast that even if they combined all their power, they would still be unable to contend against a single universe-level powerhouse!

Leo and Astra, as well as the original and Jack, all retreated in unison.

The original and Jack stared in shock at the two who hadn't changed at all.

Not only was the power of darkness not absorbed, but the power of the King of Ultra was absorbed into their bodies!

The King of Ultra was preparing to make his move when, just as he was about to strike, a bolt of black lightning struck, landing precisely between the two of them.

The two brothers immediately understood and remained kneeling on the ground, supporting each other.

That's right, it's not running away, it's a strategic retreat!

He used the simplest and most efficient moves, a simple punch, and Belial was defeated so badly that he couldn't even defend himself and could only fight back!

So does that mean light and darkness can really coexist?

However, when the light of the King of Ultra fell into their bodies, neither of them changed.

"It seems you don't realize what you've done. The power of chaos cannot be used lightly."

The two exchanged a glance, a strange feeling rising within them...

"Beria is trying to escape!"

But things are different now. Belial, who has taken up the Ultimate Battle Nergizer, has become several times stronger than before. Even though there is still a huge gap between them, he will no longer be beaten up by one side. Instead, he can defend effectively and even find opportunities to counterattack!

Upon receiving the news, Belial immediately abandoned the Legion and rushed to the moon alone.

After exchanging a glance, the original and Jack flew to Earth together, where they recuperated as their human forms.

Yes, it was a crushing defeat!

As Belial spoke, he suddenly attacked, unleashing a powerful surge of dark energy in an instant.

Norman also gave him instructions: saving lives was the top priority, and even if the plan to corrupt Taro failed, their own safety had to be guaranteed!

The King of Ultra raised his hand, intending to capture the two of them directly.

"Belial, why do you dare to come before me, and why do you dare to appear here?" King of Ultra asked, hands on his hips.

As one of the attackers who just launched the attack, he knew that his and his brother's attack had reached the peak of the super-galaxy level!

King of Ultra, who was preparing to continue his attack, was startled and decisively abandoned his pursuit of Belial. Instead, he flashed in front of Ultraman and Jack, raising a shield to help them block the attack.

At that time, the entire universe will be affected!

Many aliens are unaware of the King of Ultra's name and existence because they are unworthy!

"Damn, I didn't expect your physical skills to be this strong."

When both sides looked back, the center of the battlefield was covered by thunderstorms, and the two figures could no longer be seen.

As the King of Ultra spoke, his hands emitted light, and golden particles of light spread out, drilling into the bodies of Leo and Astra.

After they left, another golden light appeared.

Our war correspondent is here again!

The King of Ultra raised his hand, and a huge barrier of light descended. He wanted to trap Leo and Astra and then find a way to dispel the dark power within them.

"Hmph! I was already on guard against you!"

"If you hadn't been in the shadows, I would have crushed them halfway there."

"What wouldn't I dare to do?" Belial, carrying the Ultimate Battle Device, looked at Ultraman and Jack with disdain and said, "I'm speaking to the King of Ultra, what are you two juniors saying? Get lost!"

Perhaps we can take him back and teach him some more...

The reason he was here was not because he had been with Jack and the original, as he claimed, but because of a reminder from Norman.

The King of Ultra sighed and said, "It's all because of the mistakes of that year. Let it go. You can stay on Earth to recover for now. I will protect you until you are healed."

The three Ultra Kings were also surprised to see Belial appear. Ultraman and Jack immediately pointed at Belial and angrily rebuked him.

Belial, carrying the Ultimate Battle Device, looked at the King of Ultra with a wicked grin.

"Yes, and he probably hasn't even used his full strength yet. His Majesty said that General Belial's strength is already close to that of a single universe, and he will definitely become the next 'King' in the near future!"

……

When Leo and Astra were in danger, Norman used his bloodline power to see what was happening and notified Belial, the strongest person closest to him.

"Long time no see, have you missed me?"

"Die! Belial, annihilate the lightning!"

"It seems you have changed your race. In that case, I have no choice but to take you back to the cosmic prison."

Belial twirled the Ultimate Battle Device in his hand, pointing it at the King of Ultra, and said, "If you want to fight, I'm ready, how about it?"

As the smoke and dust cleared, the figure that appeared before everyone was none other than Belial, the great general of the Shadow Empire and the "traitorous ninja of the Land of Light" who had been harassing the Land of Light on the front lines!

The combined power of the two forces unleashed a power that even surprised the King of Ultra.

Belial's domineering words echoed within the lunar magic circle.

The King of Ultra was slightly taken aback, and then a guess formed in his mind.

They also hoped that the King of Ultra's move would be effective and bring the two of them "back to their senses".

"Beria, how dare you show your face again!"

Ultraman and Jack wanted to give chase, but were stopped by the King of Ultra.

Norman was able to monitor the situation of every loyal subject of his empire in real time, and he even went to great lengths to establish a surveillance magic for these key combat forces.

Of course, this is also a secret that's not really a secret~

"Old man, I'll be back! Next time I'll reach the level of a single universe and fight you head-on..."

The King of Ultra's purifying light had no effect, which means that Leo and Astra were not truly corrupted by darkness...

Belial sneered, and the Ultimate Battle Device in his hand unleashed its energy, causing a terrifying bolt of lightning to explode and completely engulf the area where the two were located.

Because once the power of chaos reappears, it means that chaos is very likely to make a comeback!

The powerful mixed rays merged as they flew, gradually forming a chaotic force!

Belial's sudden arrival shattered the barrier set up by the King of Ultra, and the magic circle that had been isolated by the King of Ultra took effect again, replenishing the power of the somewhat weakened Leo and Astra.

"Then we absolutely cannot let you escape! Belial, go to the space prison and reflect on your actions!"

But the King of Ultra easily neutralized it, seemingly without using even a fraction of his strength.

The two discovered that the portal was usable, and just as they were about to use it, they saw Belial give them a hand gesture.

"Thank you, King of Ultra."

"No matter what, I will get back everything I've lost!"

The instant the attack was launched, Belial teleported in front of Leo and Astra.

I am a general, and a general cannot run away!

Since no one had ever seen the King of Ultra engage in close combat before, he wanted to test him to see just how strong the King of Ultra's close-combat abilities were, so as to add some observational data to the Empire.

"elder brother."

The King of Ultra also believed that Leo and Astra were controlled by dark forces and wanted to use this to rescue them.

"What are you two brats standing there for? Can't keep up with me!" Belial, carrying the Ultimate Battle Device, quickly opened the portal. Seeing Leo and Astra still in a daze, he waved the Ultimate Battle Device with displeasure and gently swept the two into the portal.

Those who are of a certain caliber all know that the Land of Light has an Ultra King; the only difference is whether they know the Ultra King's strength.

Astra was astonished by the strength of a single universe-level powerhouse.

He was almost killed by Ultraman King's fists!

"Heh, I said that to you first. Is it really meaningful for an old geezer to attack my two nephews?"

"Is this what a powerhouse at the single-universe level is like?"

Once he's strong enough, Belial will definitely get his revenge!

"Belial, you yourself said that juniors don't need to interrupt when you're talking to me, so don't attack your juniors."

Now, Leo and Astra have successfully merged using only their own power, causing chaos to reappear!

"Um."

The power of chaos is terrifying; it existed before light and darkness separated, and many terrifying evil gods and demons were born from chaos.

Leo and Astra realized that since they couldn't leave, they might as well take a gamble!

That's why, after realizing he was no match for Ultraman King, Belial decided to make a strategic retreat.

Belial's mind raced, and he quickly let out a wicked laugh. After deflecting the King of Ultra's attack, he suddenly turned the Ultimate Battle Device on Ultraman and Jack.

The magical power emanating from the two brothers surged. Astra quickly stepped forward, half-squatting and raising his hands in prayer position. Leo stood behind Astra and also clasped his hands in prayer.

The King of Ultra looked at Belial, and suddenly started attacking at zero frames, gathering a huge amount of power to try to bind Belial.

Belial gritted his teeth, stepped back, twisted his neck, grabbed the Ultimate Battle Device from the ground, and charged at Ultraman King once more.

The original Ultraman and Jack supported each other, watching from behind the King of Ultra.

The King of Ultra stood in front of the two, casually raising his hand to block Belial's attack.

"So you're allowed to protect your juniors, but I'm not allowed to protect newcomers?"

"Okay, let's give it our all!"

The two exchanged a glance and then engaged in battle with the King of Ultra.

A massive bolt of lightning suddenly erupted, hurtling towards the original and Jack.

This is terrifying. It means their attacks are completely ineffective against the King of Ultra, and it also means that without reinforcements, they might not be able to leave today...

"Don't even think about it!"

From the moment Belial charged at Ultraman King, Ultraman King attacked using only his fists.

"Thump!"

The King of Ultra looked at the two of them and couldn't help but sigh again. He regretted not finding the two brothers sooner, which led them to fall into darkness and stand on the opposite side of the Land of Light.

"How could that be!"

The magnitude of this leap is beyond anyone's imagination!

The King of Ultra nodded, then disappeared.

"Boom!"

A beam of light mixed with darkness shot out and struck Ultraman King directly.

If it were the Ultra Brothers, they would likely have been killed by this attack!

As the trump card of the Land of Light and the most mysterious Ultraman, the King of Ultra's information is unknown to outsiders.

Belial glanced at the First Generation and Jack, and said, "I spotted those two pieces of trash the moment they set off. They're supposed to be on a secret mission, yet they don't bother with any disguise or concealment. Aren't they just courting death?"

"Be careful!"

"A double flash of light and darkness!"

When Leo saw him, his first thought was to run away, which shows that he knew his own strength!

Ignoring his harsh words, she then walked into the portal and left.

Unexpectedly, after putting aside the ultimate battle, he couldn't even withstand the King of Ultra's simplest move!

"I see, so your strength has actually increased to this extent...."

The King of Ultra sighed, then deployed his shield, easily neutralizing the two attacks.

This is a very dangerous sign.

"Beria!"

"Hey! King of Ultra, don't bully the weak!"

"Leo, Astra, all that hatred, anger, and resentment is false. Don't let yourself be consumed by the power of darkness!"

If they encounter mortal danger, this surveillance magic will proactively alert Norman, allowing him to provide immediate support and preventing the Empire's forces from being divided and defeated piecemeal by the Land of Light.

After seeing the two off, Belial turned back to look at the King of Ultra, who had already blocked the attack.

Beria thought to himself.

Compared to the Space Garrison's primitive method of expending energy to fly directly between universes, Belial, who had mastered magic, was able to quickly travel to the moon through a portal and save Leo and Astra at a crucial moment.

"This is……"

Therefore, this was a strategic retreat to preserve manpower!

It wasn't until the first ray of light pierced through the chaos, causing light and darkness to gradually separate, that chaos weakened and gradually faded from the stage of history.

"well……"

"Is this the general's strength?"

Amidst the thunderstorm, the King of Ultra remained completely unaffected by the raging lightning, leaping forward and overwhelming Belial with his absolute strength and physical prowess.

This guy is so powerful... No wonder His Majesty always warned me not to confront him head-on. Oh well, I won't get entangled with him. Anyway, the person has already been rescued...
