OVERLORD: The Second Supreme Being

Chapter 118: Chapter 117: Best Actor



In the Holy Kingdom, many people in the city were watching the scene outside the city, which appeared to be a divine miracle. Everyone couldn't help but swallow nervously.

Suddenly, a dark figure appeared, walking toward them.

Covered in wounds, the Demon Emperor Jaldabaoth stepped forward, one step at a time.

"The Sorcerer King truly lives up to his reputation as an absolute powerhouse. If I hadn't set up a trap in advance, I might have died at the hands of the Sorcerer King."

"Now it's your turn, humans."

Jaldabaoth walked toward the crowd, his body engulfed in flames.

"Did even the powerful Sorcerer King lose?" Neia thought to herself.

"No, no, that can't be! Sorcerer King can't lose!" Neia shouted aloud.

"If it were just a one-on-one fight with the Sorcerer King, he indeed wouldn't lose. But he fell into my trap because of you all. Should I thank you for that?"

Jaldabaoth's words filled everyone with a sense of guilt. The Sorcerer King lost because of them.

"Everyone, this is the Rune Weapon that the Sorcerer King lent to me. Jaldabaoth is already severely injured, and with the Rune Weapon, We can completely defeat the current Jaldabaoth."

Yulia didn't know where she pulled a pile of weapons from, and threw them onto the ground.

Yulia's fanatical followers immediately began to scramble for them.

"That's the weapon Lady Yulia used! It's mine!"

Yulia hadn't expected such a situation to occur, and the weapons were instantly snatched up.

"With the weapon Lady Yulia gave me, I feel full of power."

"With the weapon from Lady Yulia, I feel my combat power has more than doubled."

"With the magic wand Lady Yulia gave me, I feel my magical power has increased. I have to try that magic I've never been able to use."

"Fifth-tier magic, Holy Light!"

A beam of light descended from the sky, shining down on Jaldabaoth.

"Ah! How could this light harm me? No, that's a Rune Weapon. How could you weak humans have such powerful weapons?" Jaldabaoth exclaimed.

"I actually cast Fifth-tier magic! The weapon Lady Yulia gave me is amazing! Long live Lady Yulia!"

"Long live Lady Yulia!"

"This isn't my weapon; it's the Sorcerer King's." Yulia hurriedly explained.

But when everyone saw Yulia looking a bit flustered, they all felt a chill in their hearts.

"For Lady Yulia, kill Jaldabaoth!"

"Kill him!"

A group of holy knights jumped down from the city walls, charging toward Jaldabaoth with Rune Weapons in hand.

The priests stood atop the city walls, casting magic, eager for Yulia to see their heroic figures.

"Everyone, give it your all!" Yulia smiled and spoke.

Those who saw her smile felt a sudden shiver in their hearts.

Even those who were not fanatical followers of Yulia were moved by her smile at that moment.

Seeing the holy knights with Rune Weapons charging forward, the Demon Emperor Jaldabaoth clearly took a step back.

"Humans, don't think that just because you have powerful weapons, you can defeat me!"

"Whoosh!" A glowing arrow shot toward Jaldabaoth.

Jaldabaoth awkwardly dodged it.

Neia, holding the Rune Bow, shot arrow after arrow at Jaldabaoth, all of which were skillfully avoided by him.

This made everyone even more convinced that the Rune Weapons could indeed hurt Jaldabaoth. In the past, when people from the Holy Kingdom attacked him, he didn't even bother to dodge.

"Charge!"

"Ants!"

Jaldabaoth punched the ground, creating a powerful shockwave.

All the holy knights who were near him were thrown into disarray, their horses tumbling and their bodies knocked to the ground.

The weapons flew out as well.

Remedios saw a Rune Sword that had fallen to the ground.

Remedios rushed over, picked up the sword, and charged toward Jaldabaoth.

"Jaldabaoth!" Remedios seemed to unleash all the suppressed emotions she had been holding back recently.

The archers on the city walls, also armed with Rune Bows and Arrows, drew their bows and shot at Jaldabaoth. Jaldabaoth was fully focused on dodging the arrows.

This gave Remedios an opportunity.

"Martial skill enhancement."

"Martial skill super enhancement."

"Martial skill Flowing Speed."

"Martial skill Holy Light Slash!"

Seizing the moment, Remedios struck Jaldabaoth's chest with the sword.

The moment Jaldabaoth was hit, he was sent flying, rolling several times before crashing to the ground.

Remedios felt that this scene seemed familiar, as if she had seen it before when she was dealing with Peroroncino in Kalinsha. Back then, he had been just as dismissive toward her.

But soon, Remedios realized that it was the Rune Weapon that made this attack truly effective.

Jaldabaoth rose to his feet and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"When my injuries are healed, it will be your turn to die."

After leaving those words, Jaldabaoth flew off.

Remedios wanted to chase after him, but she couldn't catch up.

After all, he had wings.

Remedios looked behind her, not far away, and walked directly to Yulia's side.

"Why didn't you attack Jaldabaoth just now? If you had, you could have killed him right away."

The response Remedios received was a seductive, black-stocking-covered leg.

Yulia kicked Remedios over, sending her crashing to the ground.

"If I had done what you said, do you think Jaldabaoth wouldn't counterattack at the moment of his death? With Jaldabaoth's strength, it would be easy for him to take all of our lives before he dies. At that point, everyone here would be dead."

"So what? As long as we can kill Jaldabaoth, even if we all die, it's worth it!" Remedios shouted.

Yulia said nothing and walked over to the injured holy knight, taking out a magical tool.

"Heal."

Meanwhile, some officers and nobles on the city walls, having heard Remedios's words, felt displeased. They had joined the fight against Jaldabaoth to gain military merits and secure their futures. Who in the world wanted to perish together with Jaldabaoth?

....

Peroroncino had just returned to Nazarick.

"I wonder how Shalltear's teachings with the Holy Queen are going after all this time."

Upon arriving on the third floor, Peroroncino saw the Vampire Brides practicing a dance routine.

They were dancing to I'm feeling good by Ryan B, dressed in an eclectic mix of outfits—some wore black silk dresses, others police uniforms, nurse outfits, or even cosplaying as zombie girls. The most outrageous was one with an F-cup figure cross-dressing as a man. With that F-cup, there was no way anyone could mistake her for a man.

They danced while tossing random objects, creating a chaotic yet mesmerizing scene.

Watching them, Peroroncino began to feel a bit... thirsty. Yes, thirsty.

As a gentleman, Peroroncino knew that spying was improper. So instead, he walked out openly and confidently.

The Vampire Brides noticed Peroroncino and were about to bow in greeting, but he stopped them.

"Carry on, I'm just here to watch casually."

As he watched... well, things started to take a turn...
