Ancient God in the Modern World

The wall in front of them turned out to be a hidden doon. An obviously hidden door. As it was opened, the witch, which the Plague River Church is looking for appeared before them. Along with the witch is a mummy.

After punching the witch, Allen's Divine projection dashed towards the mummy.

At the same time, Milo and Cyril also took out their weapons. As scouts, although they might not be the best fighters, they are prepared to fight at all times. Furthermore, they had the finest reaction speed.

Seeing that the Divine projection of their Lord dashes into the mummy, Milo immediately teleported and seconded Allen's punch on the witch.

Thud!

The witch for the second time flew again. However, as she crashed backward, she stood back up as if nothing happened to her.

"That's one tough witch," Milo commented.

He then pointed his fingers towards the witch and teleported Cyril over.

As Cyril appeared before the witch, he released the attack that he had been preparing for the time being.

"Death Palm!"

A blinding gloomy light shone as Cyril's palm attack hit the body of the witch.

This time, the witch is no longer unscratched. Blood is flowing on his lips and fury could be seen in her eyes.

"Bastard!"

The faith energy that coursed towards her injured not only her body but also a bit of her inner body.

Cyril's life palm injects death energies into the target to scatter its life energies. It did not only affect the body but also the soul. As long as the death energies can bypass the body, the soul would be done for.

In Charmion's case, most of the death energies from Cyril's Life Palm were blocked by her sturdy witch body. Only a small amount reached her soul. However, the death energy was so potent that even just a bit of it already made Charmion cough out blood.

"Siphon!" Charmion yelled. Then, the life energies from Cyril had gone unstable and attempted to leave his body. Fortunately, Milo was able to teleport her in time.

"Teleportation, huh?" Charmion sain upon herself as she stared at the two of them.

"Annoying. Tsk. I'll just use a Wide-Scale Siphonage."

With that said, Charmion began using his ability.

Her siphon attack on Cyril just a while ago was just an infant's compared to this.

Milo and Cyril could feel their life energies begin to be stirred. If they let it be, their life energies would be siphoned by the witch. By that time, they would be dead for sure.

Fortunately, they are serving the Divine Spirit of Life and Death.

One must note that the hand seals that spells that the hand seals that Allen gave them are either related to life or death.

Furthermore, to use them, they must have a relatively profound knowledge of life and death.

"Primitive," Cyril commented.

Then, they both yelled, "Life Patronage."

Initially, Life Patronage is could not be directly used to fight. It is a technique to control their life energies to expand their lifespan. They could use it to expand their lifespan for a few months. Of course, it could also expand their life as long as they want. However, they needed the approval of the Lord they serve, the Divine Spirit of Life and Death.

Meanwhile, Charmion had her eyes widened. Her life siphon ability could not affect the two of them.

"Just what the hell are you?" she asked, confused.

"Hahaha, your abilities are useless." Cyril laughed.

"Bitch, don't look down on yourself. It is just that our Lord is the Divine Spirit of Life and Death," Cyril added.

"Oh? So, you served the Divine Spirit of Life and Death?" she asked, enlightened.

However, in the next second, a trace of fury and madness could be seen in her eyes as she added, "go to hell with me. I don't believe that your Lord could save you."

Her expression was of madness.

Then, she started to bloat. And, as she did so, Cyril could see that she was about to self-destruct. She had ignited her life energies.

"Holy shit, she is self-destructing!" he yelled which caused Milo's eyes to widen. However, he still did the right thing. He teleported himself and Cyril into the relatively safe spot.

Meanwhile, the mummy and Allen's Divine projection has been brawling for a while not.

The mummy was weakly lying on the floor. Then, all of a sudden, Allen lifted her and used her to shield the tiny body of his Divine projection from the explosion caused by the self-destruction of Charmion.

Meanwhile, Allen's Divine projection along with the mummy was blasted off.

After the blast, Allen looked around and noticed the golden eggs. One was sealed, which he dropped a while as they fought while the other is the one the mummy was holding before they entered.

Allen went towards them and picked the two eggs.

The fight did not seem to affect the Divine projection. The praise and faith of the Plague River Church kept supplying it with Divine energy for sustenance.

As the Divine projection held the two golden eggs, delight could be seen on his true body.

Then, with a wisp of Divine energy, he sealed the other one.

However, in the next second, he was caught off guard.

He felt a surge of demonic energy from where the mummy was. Then, as he looked at it. The mummy was already gone.

Allen looked around. Then, he heaved a sigh of relief as he noticed that traces of Divine energy within the inscription of the tom was still there.

"The Demon is still somewhere inside the tomb," Allen said.

Meanwhile, Cyril and Milo were momentarily stunned. They did not expect that the mummy is a Demon.

Seeing their expression, Allen generously explained, "the mummy is a newly awakened Demon with the strength nearly reaching the ranks of an admiral."

"She is a Demon that originated from greed," Allen added.

"Greed my Lord?" Cyril asked, confused.

"Indeed greed. Demons come from the seven sins. Namely, Lust, greed, gluttony, pride, sloth, wrath, and envy."

"They are the manifestation of sins…"
