Chapter 412: The Properties of a Main Character

May seemed to have immense confidence in Renee, but the battle taking place in the air was not going so well.

After forcing May into retreat, the angel destroyed all of the arrows and vines on its body with an eruption of holy light, then flapped its wings and flew forward while swinging its morning star mace through the air, while Renee could only passively defend and fall back.

Renee was swatted down from the sky onto the ground, then forced into a corner, following which the angel of death invoked its scale once again.

Renee's pain and happiness began to surge out of her body toward the scale, but her situation was completely different from May's.

There was only a slight amount of pain, but it was far outweighed by her happiness, and the scale was quickly completely tilted to one side.

Let's see what you have to say about that!

One of the things that really irked Adam about this anomaly was that it was always spouting high-and-mighty nonsense and passing judgment on others as if it were a god.

Out of all of the anomalies that he had killed in the past, only Nun could compare with how noisy and annoying it was.

"You've lived a happy life, but you shouldn't have come to challenge a god," the angel of death declared in a shameless manner, then withdrew the scale and absorbed the happiness on one end into its own body.

As a result, the injuries that it had sustained quickly began to heal, and it didn't take long before it was able to make a full recovery.

Adam was astonished by how versatile this ability was. He had thought that without its scale of death, the angel's combat prowess would've been significantly reduced, but never had he imagined that the scale of death would have a secondary ability.

This only made Adam even more eager to get his hands on this anomaly.

"Go, Renee! You can do it!"

"Instead of cheering for me, how about you lend me a hand?" Renee snapped in a disgruntled voice.

After recovering from its injuries, the angel's attacks were becoming more and more violent, and in the end, Renee was struck down before having her head smashed open by the angel's morningstar mace.

"Is she dead?" Adam asked as she turned to May, only to find that she remained as calm and composed as ever.

"She looks like she's dead, but she's actually not."

Laying on the ground, Renee's aura had already begun to fade.

Not only did Adam think that she was dead, the angel of death was also of the same opinion.

The angel of death swept its mace through the air to shake off Renee's blood, then turned to Adam and May.

However, as soon as it turned around, an explosive aura suddenly erupted behind it.

Renee's body had begun to hover in mid-air, and at the same time, a vast amount of magic power was swirling around her. At the same time, her aura was rapidly elevating, and it didn't take long before she had gone beyond the former height of her powers.

"Is this an ability of hers? Why didn't she use it from the very beginning?"

"This is not an ability, it's one of her properties!"

As soon as May's voice trailed off, an explosion suddenly rang out, and everything around Renee was flattened by her aura.

Adam was momentarily dazed upon seeing this, following which his eyes suddenly lit up as he exclaimed, "I know what this is! It's the property of a main character!"

Indeed, in all movies, games, and even urban legends, virtually every single main character had some shared properties.

They weren't necessarily the most powerful, but they were definitely the hardest to kill, and after returning from the brink of death, they would rise again in a far more powerful form.

In the beginning, the combat prowess displayed by Renee had been inferior even to Diana's, but following her resurrection, her magic power had swelled significantly, and she was able to blast the angel back with just a single attack. 𝐛𝗲𝗱𝐧𝗼𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝐧𝐞𝘁

Immediately thereafter, Renee transformed into a magic cannon, blasting countless vibrant and colorful balls of light at the angel of death. Her dancing hands were like the wands of a fairy, containing boundless magical power.

At this point in the battle, Adam felt like Renee's victory was all but assured.

"The angel is no match for Renee without its scale of death!"

"You sound like a standard side character," May said as she turned to Adam after taking some time to catch her breath. "Whenever the main character is doing something badass, there are always side characters like you cheering them on, and whenever that happens, the situation always takes a turn for the worse, leaving the main character in peril again."

Sure enough, right as these words left May's mouth, her speculation came true.

In the face of Renee's powerful magic blasts, the angel of death finally unveiled its domain for the first time.

Its domain was a domain of judgment, and inside that domain, it held absolute jurisdictive power. This twisted desire for power stemmed from the pleasure that Noah derived from deciding whether someone deserved to live or die.

As a carer in a retirement home, his job was extremely exhausting and demeaning, often having to clean up the urine and fecal matter of the retirement home's elderly residents.

This was probably one of the most undesirable jobs for a young person, and given the aura of death that was rubbed off on him, no one liked to approach him, so he didn't have any friends.

However, on the flip side, he was able to decide the fate of countless old people.

These old people had lived spectacular lives. Given their age, all of them had endured World War III, and they had all types of magnificent experiences, yet Noah held the power to put an end to those lives, and the sense of joy that he derived from this notion was unparalleled.

Inside the domain of judgment, the aura of death weighing down on Renee was becoming heavier and heavier, and her magical power was beginning to plummet, while the angel's power was quickly rising.

As a result, the angel of death was able to quickly turn the tables, flying over to Renee's side before enveloping her entire body within its black wings.

Immediately thereafter, it raised its mace high above its head, and a vast amount of holy light began to converge toward the weapon.

"That looks like a really strong attack! Will she be able to handle it?"

The angel swung its mace down, and a burst of holy light flashed through its black wings as black and golden light intertwined with one another.

The dazzling eruption of light flashed for four or five seconds before gradually fading, and Renee's body had already been completely destroyed.

Adam wasn't sure if Renee could still resurrect herself under these circumstances, so he could only turn to May with an inquisitive gaze.

May's brows were slightly furrowed, and it was clear that she had never encountered a situation like this, either.

"Will she be able to resurrect herself?"

"Theoretically, yes, but I've never seen it done in practice."

With May and Renee fighting alongside each other, it was almost impossible for them to be forced into such a dire situation.

Given how powerful they were and the support that they had, the only entities that could really pose a threat to them were the southern congress and the Guild of Immortality.

While Adam and May were still attempting to get a grasp on the situation, the angel of death had already turned to face them, and with a single flap of its black wings, its enormous body came hurtling directly toward them.

It possessed absolute speed that was far superior even to Mole's, and it only took it a couple of seconds to reach Adam and May.

May was able to dodge the attack thanks to her superior speed, but Adam was only able to cross his arms as a barrier to defend himself.

Boom!

The angel's morning star mace smashed into his stone arms, and thanks to the enhancements provided by the domain of judgment, the angel of death was able to smash straight through Adam's body with its mace, sending stone fragments flying for several hundred meters.
