Chapter 298 Abyssal eyes of destruction
?The hooded man rushed at Saisha as his words finished, and in an instant he was almost upon her. But his raised hand halted and he jumped back, feeling a sense of crisis enveloping his body when he got near her.
"Interesting. Is this what those primordials play like?" The hooded man said thinking the feeling of fear he felt was probably because Saisha is Gaia's chosen and has her blessings.
"But that's even more fun." The hooded man turned serious and rushed forward again, ignoring the vines and magic skills that attacked him constantly.
The few basic spells did no damage to him as the protection methods of the hoods he wore had blocked them. The rest which posed a threat to him, he tried to avoid as much as possible and if he couldn't, then he'd use his destruction magic to nullify.
Destruction magic is considered a branch of Darkness element. Some call it an advanced version of darkness,(like ice is to water or metal is to nature) while others call it just another trick of corrosion property contained in the main darkness element, just like shadow magic.
But whatever it may be, no one doubted the endless possibilities and chaotic potential this magic possessed.
And the results were clear to see. The hooded man called Ronnie was fighting against Saisha while constantly releasing a wave of destruction around him so no one interfered in his fight. Blocking spells of other students and those affected by Wrath poison alike.
"Did those psychos at wrath and you fanatics join hands now?" Saisha asked as she held the bow she just won from the auction in her hands.
After fighting for a while, the 15% chance of stealing other parties' arrows did get triggered a few times and she had a constant supply of enhanced arrows.
There were many methods and treasures in her storage rings that could kill this hooded figure in front of her instantly, but they would all end up causing a mass number of other casualties too, so she wanted to avoid using them, as long as she can.
Her friend, the other elven girl who attended the auction with her, was attacked some time ago and was resting behind her back. Jaesin was responsible for guarding her for now.
"Who us, no no no, no no. Those psychos got nothing to do with us. If you wanna call it something, call it fate and your bad luck. That both our organizations picked the same place and same date to attack." The hooded man said in clarification as if comparing their groups together was an insult in his eyes.
"That's disappointing." Saisha said and raised her hand. As a shadow of a large tree formed behind her. Soon the shadow took an ethereal form and looked almost like a virtual tree projection covering her.
Little dots of lights started falling down the tree like some seeds or pheromones spreading outward. Whenever these golden dots fell on someone it put them in a trance-like state where their mind is pulled into an illusion of peace.
As soon as Saisha put the hooded man on hold, she rushed forward to kill him, but it seemed that she underestimated the mental fortitude of this villain or how many gods wanted to see him fight.
The hooded man seemed to realize the trick of illusion and was constantly releasing his mana without any restraints as one after another waves of destruction spread from him as the epicenter.
Knowing getting close was useless, she tried shooting arrows one after another to kill him, but the second hooded man, who was sitting aside and watching their fight all this time, decided to help his buddy.
"He's still too young and arrogant." The second hooded man said and threw a roll of sheet which formed a barrier all around his partner. Shielding him from all the attacks.
Rebecca and Vanessa wanted to help Saisha but the second hooded man just pulled a notebook from his storage ring and threw dozens of papers at them.
Instantly all kinds of spells and attacks landed on the two heroines, forcing them to back off.
The hooded man seemed to be the holder of sealing magic.
A side branch originated from the space element.
He could seal other people's spells and skills on various paper effigies, and then release them back at his opponents. A deadly foe to face especially in a warzone where dozens or hundreds of people were constantly fighting with different methods.
You can never know which element or type of skill these kinds of users would choose to attack you, making them quite hard to defeat.
He even threw out a blood red paper which was just a bucket of blood falling over everyone as if rain of blood.
For a second some people thought it was a prank, but they all felt a pain like no other coming from deep within their bones.
The blood seemed to have some kind of radiation or mutation properties, which started turning many men into mindless monsters. Their bodies twisted in different angles and some parts of them evolved or grew differently from their racial traits.
An elf had horns coming out his head, a human grew third eyes or fangs and claws. A dwarf grew into an astounding height and turned into a mini hulk etc etc
Rebecca tried cleansing magic or healing blessings, but seeing no use. She nodded her head at Vanessa and for the first time in this fight, they both decided to get serious and go all out. Trying to kill these atrocities before they could cause any more damage.
Bursts of flames appeared, and heat inside the hall rose to an all time high, making everyone feel like they were fighting in an erupting volcano. Vanessa brought out her absolute best and turned into a pyro menace, burning everything and everyone in her path to cinders. Her slim figure in a tight orange dress, with its edges covered in flames made her look like a flame fairy descending to mortal world. But in the eyes of anyone else opposing her she looked just like a demon from hell who was out to burn the whole world down.
Rebecca on the other hand was still much more gentle looking. Though the kill count she accumulated was probably higher then Vanessa. Balls of water floated all around her, choking the life out of anyone who came close to her. The high rankers or mutated abominations who could stand without oxygen for a long time, had their heads pierced by thin ice needles from all sides, turning the crystal clear balls of water around their heads into blood red.
If Rio saw this scene, he'd probably only have one line to say - All his hard work for training and teaching her wasn't in vain. (and obviously nice take on iron Maiden punishment)
The intense scene showcased Vanessa's fiery ferocity and Rebecca's graceful but deadly control over water perfectly.
Alfred was fighting alongside them all this time, but some time ago he received a call for help from Edward, who was poisoned and about to die. So he went there to heal him. Edward's and Alfred's guards were fighting and holding back the crowd of crazies as Alfred poured one potion after another into his little minion's mouth.
After all, Edward was going to be the next heir of Elite Sinclair family and having them back him up in the race to the throne was Alfred's long standing wish and plan. So he couldn't let Edward die on him now.
Looking at how Saisha's illusion magic, and Rebecca and Vanessa's bloody massacre were going on - for a second anyone would've thought that the fight was in their favor and they'd survive or win or whatever.
But it all crumbled down to pieces when the barrier around the first hooded man broke and he woke up from his illusion.
-arrrrfgghhhhhhhh
Angered and scared that he was almost killed by these little girls, his destruction magic seemed to have gone berserk. As the moment he woke up he used his main attack and blessing, something that he himself had no control over.
