Chapter 566 – Heirs of the Goddess (3)
***
Kwaaaaa!!
The undead dragon let out a breath.
The breath of death, which purified the master Equinox’s mana from the breath organ inside her body, poured into Tirsi. She cast her spell upon Tirshi, making her scepter float beside her.
“
Waving…
I twisted the space and bent the breath that was pouring in a straight line. The breath that could even melt Mithril curved at a right angle like a ball hit by a racket and swept away the undead on the ground.
Fugwagwagwang—!!!! The exploding breath splashed pieces of ice at the party facing the undead army.
Elisabeth shouted while attacking the giant undead with spirit magic.
It was the right decision for the Nords to drive out one axis of the enemy forces.
The strength of this battle was 2 to 1 to 1. Since Nord and Tyrsi are on the same side, at first glance it seems that they have the most advantage. Aren’t Equinox and Letitia hostile?
But the reality is not. If it was a 2 vs 2 composition, it would be the Nord party that would suffer the most damage. Besides, those who have to protect Sehetefibra have no way to retreat.
It was when Oftum cried out like that.
Fire-!!
Tirsi, who faced Equinox in the sky, blew mana into Hultfolk’s scepter. Tirshi’s magic has been added to the seal’s ability to infuse mana into others.
─Bad! An ice ring appeared on Nefertiti’s head.
A ring reminiscent of an angel’s ring! Feeling the mana flowing from it, Nefertiti recklessly inflated the whip’s aura.
〈… About this!〉
As Gildart was torn apart by the aura, he ran with the entire skeleton holding the sword.
─Whoaaaaa!!
As Mana, who no longer looked like a whip, hit the battlefield, a corner of the undead army exploded. A few souls could not bear the damage inflicted on their bodies and perished.
Gildart then felt the mana flowing into him and raised his sword.
I breathed mana into the scabbard.
The swordsmanship handed down in his family was a mana management skill that made a ‘sword scabbard’. Just as soil builds up layer by layer, the martial arts he had learned throughout his life tightly wrapped mana around the scabbard and inflated it.
Parts chu tsu tsu zuc—!!
Her power increased even more because it was a mana that spreads the technique. As if in a short-term decisive battle, wasting mana, the aura blade swung wildly across the battlefield. Elizabeth cried.
〈… Wrong, this is right!〉
Nefertiti cut him off. She looked at the souls of the undead and shouted.
〈… Is it! It’s better to damage the undead than to attack yourself!〉
─Chwajwajwat!! Optum, who had increased the number of Aura Chakrams to a level he had never used before, took Elisabeth’s words.
Having dedicated his life to hunting warlocks, he was most comfortable fighting multiple enemies at a reasonable distance, and was strong. This is because black magicians often entrust their lack of physical combat abilities to undead or golems.
The same goes for Nefertiti. By destroying the undead without giving them a chance to approach, Equinox was making mana consumed by restoring the destroyed undead.
〈… You are struggling.〉
─Flutter! Equinox said while riding on the head of the undead dragon. She took her eyes off Tirsi, who flew up with her flight magic, and watched the battle on the ground.
She knew what kind of relic the seal was because it was an object that had been defeated by Diavolo. However, the mana transmission function would have been impossible to use unless someone had the seal.
In addition, if you continue to use that much mana, the users will also cause poisoning symptoms due to excessive mana.
However, Tirsi’s party, which shows a fierce struggle against the undead army, does not bear such a burden. It was all thanks to Tirshi’s magic.
〈Did you supplement the limit of the distance by combining the power of the artifact with 〈Advent〉? That’s a great skill.〉
Delivering mana beyond the constraints of space, avoiding the symptoms of mana poisoning while using mana beyond one’s ability.
It is a shortcoming that ordinary human descendants must overcome in order to inherit the mana that transcends the recognition of the archmage Arma Shunas. And
– Dumbly. Equinox, flying from the head of the undead dragon, said. “And that goes for you too.” The sun of ice connected to the World Tree is gone even after washing your eyes. It was because Tirsi accepted all of that mana lump into her body. It wouldn’t be strange if Tyrsi would die instantly if he absorbed that much mana into his body. The amount of mana depends on the size of the soul. It meant that there was a cause-and-effect relationship if Tyrsi’s soul didn’t suddenly swell dozens of times. With a rich eye, Equinox paid attention to the unusual ring around Tirshi’s neck. The ring of ice that floats around Tirsi’s neck transfers control of her body to Nord like a leash on her neck. That is the core of It would have been the best result if it could be broken, but it was the structure of the great magic. Can’t be broken
Besides, the neck is the vital part of living things in the first place. If you get a chance to break that ring, it’s better to smash the body side. It doesn’t mean much if you recognize it as a weakness. I just noticed the gas mileage would be a bad fight.
〈《Hongbaek Resonance: Ghost Wailing》.〉
Was it like that? Equinox did not insist on defeating Tyrsi.
Even while Equinox was talking, Tyrsi did not cast a spell, but prepared a spell, and it was the same with Equinox. The two triggered the mana shed in the magic spell.
“
─Pang!
Without any warning, the undead dragon’s head completely disappeared.
The air that was caught in and disappeared gathered to a point in a vacuum state, bursting with the sound of the wind.
It was a magic that compressed the target space. Even the undead dragon’s defense magic was meaningless for ultra-high magic, which activated faster than low-level magic and whose physical power was incomparable.
─Ew!
Of course, Equinox, who was in compression range, was not safe.
With both of her feet ripped from her thighs, she was bleeding red. The left half of her body is the result of leaving human flesh behind.
The undead dragon’s breath organ and brain at full power, and the loss of Equinox’s own body. Neither died, but commensurate damage.
It’s not just fatal. No need to fix Equinox whispered coldly.
〈Pavrum Miracurm. Run amok with the determination to die one more time.〉
〈Kuwaaaaak──!!〉
Having lost his head, the dragon roared as if his soul had been squeezed when his name was called. Stunned by the sound, Elizabeth looked at the situation.
More than 90% of the soldiers in the huge number of undead troops collapsed as if they had lost their souls.
The undead that were destroyed were in a similar situation. In the eyes of Elisabeth, an elementalist, she could see the spirits plucked out of her body.
〈Waoaaaaa!!!〉
Souls that would not help in battle were sucked into the 11 elite undead and the undead dragon in the air.
Black magic invoked by Equinox.
Naturally, doing so exposes the body and soul of the undead to devastating strain.
However, the destruction of the body can be stopped by restoring it with the power of creation. The broken soul is replaced with the absorbed soul.
There are no downsides either. The souls of the undead who were forcibly poured with mana from the master class warlock, Lich Equinox, would fall into the same pain as hell.
However, Equinox did not have the sensibility to regret it.
〈Krrrr…〉
The undead that sucked mana emitted a terrifying spirit.
There were giants and even fairies the size of a hand, but the main composition was human. The dark and negative mana that flowed from his damaged mouth and eyes aroused fear in the survival instincts of the living.
‘Gather back to back! The difference in numbers is huge!〉
Gildart hurriedly shouted.
Until a little while ago, despite the numerical difference, they had the advantage. This is because the Death Knight cannot reproduce 100% of the martial arts of its lifetime unless it is controlled by a black magician.
With Tirsi’s help, they were able to press them with a series of great skills like a match with infinite stakes.
But now the conditions are the same. If the amount of mana and skill were equal, the difference in numbers three times was fatal.
〈You and Pavrum’s breath don’t match well. In that case, hand-to-hand combat would be better.〉
Equinox lost his head and charged the undead dragon that spewed black mana.
─Booooong!!
The dragon’s claws, which became twice as fast, aimed at Tirsi. Tirsi tried to dodge it by teleporting, but noticed that her magic wasn’t working, so she mechanically created an ice shield.
‘Escape is not permitted. If it’s a doll, fight with the same tools like a doll.〉
After Equinox said so, the magic circle activated the authority of creation.
Kururureung… !!
The power of creation modified the laws of the sky. It was made to block
Modifying the laws of magic with Authority is costly.
But it wasn’t a loss if it could force more damage overall on Tyrsi. It was a move that could not be used against the Nords who resisted the authority.
〈Krwarwarwarwa──!!!!〉
Like a headless dragon swarming around, he wrung his claws and dug in.
Tirsi defended silently and mercilessly counterattacked, but at the same time as it was destroyed, the power of creation was activated and the dragon’s wound was healed.
Although the undead dragon had holes in places, it had a mass suitable for its size. It would be a waste of mana to respond with the space-destroying magic that was shown earlier.
The wizard’s fight is a battle of wisdom in which each other’s mana is competed.
The side that spends a cup of mana and causes the enemy to use a bowl of mana wins.
Equinox’s own legs were not needed in the process.
However, Equinox was not vigilant at all.
Nord seems to have calculated that the others would be easier to deal with Equinox than Letitia, but no matter what the result, when the match is over, one of them won’t come back.
The situation had to be sorted out before it happened. Richie’s eyes turned to the ground.
Oftum took up his weapon, ready to bury his bones. The undead fairy flew up and spewed out mana that was not suitable for a body as small as the palm of the hand. It was different from humans, but it was definitely high-level magic.
Elisabeth responded by joining her palms to his question of throwing a chakram to keep him in check. Blood poured from her eyes and mouth as if a vessel had burst.
Shoot aaaaa!!
Elisabeth pulled out her spirit as she took her internal wounds. Tirsi’s magic, which took the burden of her distributed mana instead, could not prevent Elisabeth from overusing her body herself.
“Hwiiiii… !!”
Eight spirits spread their wings as if responding to Elisabeth’s call as she shed blood.
You cannot summon the spirits of this world in Niflheim. Because of this, they were artificial spirits made hastily through the magic of elementalization, but their power was not to the extent of being ignored.
Aren’t they spirits created by Elisabeth using her own body as her magic item and the mana she received from Tyrsi?
It is no different from the one summoned by Tyrsi, who has risen to the level of a real demigod.
Then it must have been worth it for me to be incapacitated. Elisabeth thought so and she fell forward.
“Ahaha… If it is the spirit of the goddess, even against the elite undead of the lich… No kneeling…”
Elisabeth, barely maintaining her consciousness, was showered with high-level magic from the undead fairy.
“Kirurururu!!!”
A bladed wind blew in, sweeping the entire party, but a fairy-like wind spirit wearing a raincoat flapped its cape and it became as quiet as a windless zone.
It was to prove that the spirit summoned by Elizabeth was capable of confronting the enemy.
“… Sleep for a while No matter how things go, it is over by the time you open your eyes.”
Gildart said without looking back at his collapsing wife. It had to be.
It was because Equinox, who had tied Tyrsi’s feet with authority and dragons, came down directly in front of them.
Will the undead dragon’s soul be destroyed by Tirsi’s magic first, or will Equinox annihilate Gildart’s party and use the recovered undead to fight Tirsi?
Whichever side came first, it wouldn’t be an easy fight.
Gildart recalled Elizabeth’s words and smiled bitterly at her.
