My Supernatural Girlfriends Spoils Me Rotten-Chapter 339: The Big Plan
The sky went mad with all the thunder roaring.
Lightning didn't fall—it poured like rain.
Blinding white pillars crashed into the ground so fast and so violently that the air itself trembled.
Pillars of lightning stabbed the earth like the fists of angry gods, splitting the ground, melting stone, and vaporizing anything caught beneath them.
From a distance, it looked like the world was ending.
Creatures were roasted mid-sprint. Flesh turned to ash. Bones shattered from the shockwaves.
Even those lucky enough to survive the first strike stumbled straight into the next.
Screams didn't even have time to echo. They were swallowed by the deafening crack of thunder that never stopped.
The awakeners could only watch while trembling.
If that same attack was directed at them, not even a thousand lives could save them.
No amount of teamwork would make a difference. Not even the power of friendship could contend against it.
"A god in the flesh," Haven muttered aloud.
Funny enough, no one dared to refute her.
Because honestly, that was the only way to describe what they were seeing.
If Asher were hearing them right now, he'd probably think their standards were too low.
Sure, the lightning attack looked impressive, but it was not even worth the mention.
This attack wouldn't even tickle the toe of the infant titan he fought before.
But for these beasts, it was more than enough.
After a few more bursts of lightning and scattered cries, everything went quiet.
Asher stood still, and unsummoned his sword.
'I need to fix all of this,' He raised a finger toward the sky, and a new barrier formed around the city—seamless, glowing, and far more stable than the old one.
This one radiated warmth. It blocked out the falling ash completely, wrapping the city in a calm, protective dome.
Then, green particles, soft and glowing, drifted down from above like dust carried by the wind.
At first, the humans were wary, unsure if it was another threat.
But the moment it touched their skin, they felt it.
Their wounds began to close. Sore muscles relaxed. The crushing fatigue from all the chaos faded away.
The awakeners, too, felt the effects of the particles.
Their bodies, honed from years of training and combat, still benefited from the healing properties of the green dust.
Stron's eyes widened as he felt his muscles relax, his breathing slow.
It was obvious that the person in front of them didn't just have the power to destroy, but also the ability to create and heal.
They watched in silence as Asher slowly flew toward them.
Haven's gaze softened as she watched him approach.
She would be lying if she said she wasn't attracted to him.
No woman could look at him and not be captivated by his features.
He landed softly among them, his eyes scanning their faces before offering them a curt smile.
He landed softly among them, his eyes scanning their faces, as if looking for something.
The other male awakeners, on the other hand, couldn't help but feel embarrassed by how easily this woman was taken by a pretty face.
Especially Stron, who felt a bit jealous. He had feelings for Skyler, and seeing her fall head over heels for someone else made his heart tighten.
But he didn't dare voice his displeasure, knowing that the object of her affection could easily slap him into oblivion.
"Thank you for saving us," Haven was the first to speak, bowing her head.
The others quickly followed, including the lower-ranking awakeners.
They witnessed Asher's power firsthand, and while they respected it, they couldn't help but fear it.
It was human nature to be afraid of what couldn't be understood or explained.
Asher understood this, so instead of telling them his plan, he chose to introduce himself first.
"My name is Asher, Overlord of the Demons,"
His announcement came as a shock. Humans had been heavily brainwashed by Deuz to hate demons.
But he had no choice—if he wanted to communicate with them, he needed an identity they could recognize, even if it carried fear or doubt.
"You don't need to be afraid of me," he added. "I may be the Overlord of the demons now, but I only took that position recently. I used to be human, just like all of you."
They all wore skeptical looks after hearing his claim.
It would've been easier to believe if he said he was some ancient demon born ten thousand years ago.
That kind of power made sense coming from a creature like that.
But saying he used to be human—like them?
How?
Asher sighed to himself, noticing their doubtful expressions.
He didn't bother explaining further and simply continued speaking, keeping his tone calm and steady
"There's no need to fear the demons anymore. They're under my control now."
He added. It was easier to establish this narrative than to convince them that not all demons were bad.
"Overlord Asher, may I ask what your plan is now?" Skyler broke the silence.
She chose to believe his words, reasoning that if he truly wanted to harm the humans, he wouldn't have gone through so much effort to save them.
This was the timing that he was waiting for.
"I'll be honest with all of you," his voice turned more serious.
"You won't survive for long, especially with the calamity that's about to come in the west. The Eastern region is already undergoing massive changes, and I believe this planet will be covered in ice within a few days."
Skyler's eyes widened in disbelief. "Ice?" she repeated, her voice trembling slightly. "The entire planet?"
Haven frowned, her mind racing. "How is that even possible? "
The others looked at Asher with a mix of confusion, fear, and desperation. They had barely survived the battles with the beasts, and now they have to battle the planet itself.
"It will happen, and there's nothing I can do to stop it,"
He was not lying. Changing the entire planet's weather would be nearly impossible, even for him.
Only beings like the titans could pull something like that off, and Asher was still far from reaching their level of power.
Pantheon couldn't pull it off either, as it was still in a weak state, nowhere near its full potential.

"And what do you want in exchange?" Baik chimed in, his voice skeptical. He refused to believe that Asher was doing this without any motived.
"Nothing," he responded with an indifferent tone.
"I already have too many things to think of, and I won't even stay in this world for long. So, I'm giving you all a head start."
He paused, letting his words sink in first.
"What you do after that, or how long you survive, it's up to you."
Baik furrowed his brow, clearly not satisfied with the answer. "So, you're just abandoning us? You give us a sanctuary, but then leave us to figure it all out on our own?"
"I'm giving you the tools to survive. The rest is up to you. Whether you thrive or perish is no longer my concern. My role is done there."
Skyler, still processing his words, stepped forward. "And what about the demons? Will they be a threat to us?"
"As I said. I've already taken control of them. They won't be a problem. But demons and beasts are totally different things. The ones that attacked this place aren't related to demons at all. |
The group exchanged uneasy glances, but they couldn't find any flaw in his words.
In fact, what he was offering them had a lot of benefits.
They would be able to take advantage of his benevolence and not worry about being enslaved or controlled.
No one wanted to admit it, but they all knew deep down that they were at his mercy, and the sanctuary he spoke of might be the only way to make it through the coming ice age.
Skyler hesitated for a moment before speaking, her voice quieter than before.
"Thank you again for helping us. If you have anything to ask, we'll cooperate. Whatever you need, we'll help."
"I would impose on you then," he turned his attention to her.
"I need to know all the locations of the settlements all over the West. This way, we can rescue everyone. This place will be the temporary refugee camp."
She nodded. "I can lead you to them, but it will take some time because most of them are quite far."
"Don't worry, I can fly fast, and I can also teleport everyone in the settlement to this place. Just point me the direction."
"Okay, I'll draw a map first," she added.
"There's no time for that," Asher replied, lifting her like a princess. His dragon wings flapped open, creating a gust of wind.
"Just tell me the general direction."
Skyler swallowed hard, her heart racing as she his chest against her hairr. His presence was overwhelming, and she couldn't ignore the effect it had on her.
Asher could hear her heartbeat racing, and he knew immediately that she had already fallen for him.
However, he felt no romantic pull toward her. It wasn't that she wasn't attractive—she was.
But he had become very picky, his standards now shaped by the many pretty and capable women who had crossed his path.
She felt her face grow hot as she caught herself staring at his chest.
"Uh, th-that way," She stuttered, hastily pointing south, trying to play it cool despite the flush rising to her cheeks.
With a curt nod, he wrapped their bodies in a barrier.
Then, in an instant, they were gone - a white blur streaking across the sky at a velocity that defied comprehension.
