The skeleton lich forcefully stamped his staff on the ground four times, causing the space gate behind him to swirl with increased speed. As Alec anxiously watched, anticipating the unveiling of the undead creature that was about to emerge. Even Beatrice, intrigued by Alec’s theory, couldn’t help but watch, as she silently thanked her luck that it wasn’t her responsibility or Pale’s to command the students situation. As she felt they would unable to outsmart the Lich in tactics, Beatrice’s thoughts were interrupted as something finally emerged from the gates. The first thing they saw was the head of a horse, engulfed in eerie blue flames, as it confidently stepped out of the portal and revealed its entire body. Perched atop the horse was a skeleton adorned in worn and rusted armor, with its long sword still sheathed in its scabbard, the top of its helmet also flickered with bluish undead flames adding a type of dangerous vibes to his appearance. The creature emitted the aura pre
Alec had been able to see the names of the newly summoned undead creatures only because he had used the analyse skill on them. Otherwise, he would have been just as clueless as the other mages present, but from what he had discovered when he had seen there description with the analyse skill was quite alarming. The skeletal knight on horseback seemed to cause a change in the skeleton army as they no longer attacked and retreated back.This sudden change caught the Swedish city guards off guard, as it was the first time they had witnessed such a thing as the skeletons have never retreated before, and seeing the Tier 4 skeletal knight at the back of the horde of skeletons made them concerned. They knew things were about to become ugly if the Lich was about to have a Tier 4 deployed against them so early in the war. Additionally, it was their first encounter with the skeletal knight, leaving them unaware of its powers or weaknesses.The skeletal knight entered the middle of the skelet
While the skeletal knight had begun to cause significant trouble on the battlefield, the bone knight on the other hand seemed to be of a more patient kind. As It advanced toward Pale and the rest of Lucas’s command team with deliberate, and slow steps.Trailing behind him were fourteen skeletons clad in bone armor also, wielding bone swords as they marched in unison. His gaze was intently fixed on Pale, making it evident that Pale was the sole reason for the it’s summoning, and his primary mission was to eliminate Pale.Alec realized that the Lich had been attempting to restrain all the higher powers he dispatched, yet he still harboured hope that they could prevail in their respective duels.The moment the fifteen skeletons rose from the ground to join him, the Bone knight charged toward Pale with reckless abandon. As his summoned skeletons formed a barrier, preventing Agnes and the rest of the team from interfering with the duel.As the bone knight swung his great sword, Pale le
“Ha-ha, I can’t believe he came into contact with a Bone claw, Now let’s see if your chosen killer instincts can find a solution to this problem,” Edward chuckled as he watched, while Selene stood silently beside Edward, her attention focused on Alec and his actions now that his clansman was in danger.--“Where the hell is the second Mage with a shadow element?, Show yourself at the front!” Alec shouted, his heart tightening at the sight of Knight in peril.Alec had warned them against moving against the Lich, suspecting that there would be an undead or something protecting it, he just felt it was likely something stronger than the undead it summoned. Otherwise, he won’t allow the strong undead how he summoned to just enter the battlefield without any protection for itself.But it seemed Knight had once again disregarded his orders, Alec planned on punishing him but first, he had to save him from the Bone claw. He had used the analyse skill on it and discovered that Bone claws wer
The Patriarch of the Gordons clan stood on the room’s edge, gazing at his brother who still lay on the bed. “Are you ready?, I am about to give it to him now,” the Grand Elder asked, receiving a nod of agreement from George. “Give him the stuff, we have to be done with it soon, i hope this really works,” the patriarch said, his eyes fixed on the blood moon looming in the sky, even within the confines of their home, the foreboding aura of dread and violence was palpable. “You know the city will suffer significant losses, and many skilled mages will perish in the process, you should have sent at least one of the elders to compete in the blood moon war!” The Grand Elder expressed, signalling the first elder to proceed with giving the Third Elder the Dragon heart leaf. “Alec’s previous accomplishments in the Blood Moon war have granted us a few months of respite from participating, and I plan on making the most of it, the city lord believes his city is now secure with new clans posse
Knight made sure that he would appear next to Alec as soon as he realized he was free from the dreaded Bone claw. He was overwhelmed with happiness, and words couldn’t express how he felt as he escaped death, tears and laughter mingled together as Knight’s emotions overflowed. “Someone, undo the restrictions spell on this idiot!” Alec commanded, his attention still focused on the ongoing battles before them.The fight between Lucas and the Tier 4 Ghouls appeared to be reaching its conclusion, despite sustaining a few wounds, Lucas proved himself to be a formidable opponent in one-on-one combat, one not to be underestimated. As he had managed to break the Ghoul’s strong jaws, cleaving one of its hands off, and coming close to killing it twice, only for the Ghoul to escape due to the intervention of the Lich sneak attack support spells.Although the Ghoul possessed incredibly fast regeneration powers, but it was acquiring new injuries faster than its body could heal, with all this Al
Alec had yet to confront the Ghouls, but he had already killed 40 to 50 of them by throwing boulders. Just as he was about to unleash his third salvo, he noticed the two Tier 4 Ghouls rushing towards him with increased ferocity in their eyes, determined to stop him from killing any more of the remaining Ghouls without any chance of retaliation. So alec attempted to stand on top of his horse, waiting for the Ghouls to lunge at him, then, he leaped off the horse towards them, weapons drawn.Knowing that he would be at a disadvantage fighting on horseback against two Tier 4 Ghouls, Alec decided to confront them on the ground where he was more comfortable. With a clang, the sound of his weapons blocking the Ghouls’ clawed attacks echoed as Alec landed on the ground and the Ghouls fell beside him.Even though Alec had a student army approaching, the Tier 4 Ghouls ignored them, just as he had predicted. He understood that the top Tier undead were focused on going after those the Lich de
“I can finally see what you see in him, this boy can switch from his gentle nature to his killer instincts mode in seconds, it’s as if there are two different souls residing in that one body of his!”“I don’t know what he must have gone through to achieve such a state, but I have no doubts about him being a killer anymore, the way he kills is almost like an art; he never simply slaughters an enemy, he tends to kill them in the most gruesome or skilful way, describing the art of killing a beauty with the way he sheds blood, he is what you would call a maniac,” Edward said as he continued to watch at that moment.Selene didn’t bother to tell her master that she had foreseen this, because even though Alec had taken down two more Tier 4 opponents, it didn’t change the fact that they were still at a significant disadvantage against the undead army. Currently, they were able to suppress the ghouls and the evolved skeleton army due to the army’s high morale. However, she knew that they coul
