561 Egg Meet Stone (1/2)
The sky turned dusky, greatly impairing visibility. But, the most serious issue was the abyssal power filling those spatial tears. The tears were like stars… No, stars would emit light at least, while this abyssal power was incredibly sinister. No one doubted that once the Orachiss' spell fully came into effect, they wouldn't have the chance to escape.
Of course, the Orachiss was still only accumulating mana because it didn't have the ability to instantly cast an Abyssal Spell. Although the ants in front of it had resisted a wave of attacks, there were still flames and frost everywhere.
”Damnit, I knew it, I knew it!” Suval was quivering in fear as he looked at the surroundings and even forgot to try to cast anything. ”The power of the Orachiss isn't… Isn't something we can stand up against… It's all because of that damned Mafa Merlin…
'If Mafa Merlin hadn't insisted, why would we stay in this damned place? Why would we face that damned monster? We would have fled far away by now, and we might have already found the Raging Flame Emperor's scepter, attaining great achievements for the Black Tower!
'This is all because of Mafa Merlin's arrogance! He thought he could do something in such a desperate crisis, he thought he could handle the Orachiss… But take a look! Look at everything before you! This has already become a hellish forest, any fool would know that we are doomed! There is no chance…
'Even if everyone works together, we can't even leave a scratch on the Orachiss… We can only be buried alongside Mafa Merlin now...'
But...
While Suval was cursing in his mind, he suddenly felt strange mana fluctuations all around him. As he was still on his guard, Suval subconsciously rolled away.
It was followed by an explosion as a thick pillar of flame suddenly rose up from Suval's location.
This pillar of flame suddenly split open.
In a flash, countless flames splashed over, turning Suval's world crimson.
It looked like there were no gaps between those boundless flames, and as he panicked, Suval was struck multiple times. Each fireball came from the red head of the Orachiss. Even Suval came to the conclusion that he wouldn't be able to last long under such a barrage.
Indeed...
Suval could clearly feel that the Runic Shield protecting him was about to crumble, and if he lost the Runic Shield, he probably wouldn't even last another second.
'Not good, this can't continue, I have to find a way… I might be able to escape if someone blocked the pillar of flames for me, but everyone is under pressure, including Sir Falton and Weiss. No one is free to help…
'Hold on… That's…?'
As he was panicking, Suval suddenly saw a familiar figure...
'It's the attendant of that damned Mafa Merlin, that wretched Beastman!'
Xiuban was brandishing Carnage and using his own Beastman Race's unique Beastman Runes to make his skin flicker with a dark gold layer, making him look truly impressive.
But Suval didn't care about that. He smiled when he saw Xiuban.
Nothing was more suitable that this brainless Beastman for standing against this terrifying power.
Thinking of this, Suval immediately made a decision. He relied on the fact that his Runic Shield was still standing to withstand the blows from some of the fireballs as he cast Flame Flash to appear behind the Beastman and then use Flame Shackles. Xiuban, who had been resisting the Abyssal Spell, hadn't thought that someone would mount a sneak attack on him. He didn't manage to react in time and was bound by Suval's Flame Shackles...
'Good! I'm really too quick-witted…'
As he was held in place by the Flame Shackles, Xiuban became Suval's shield and took over a hundred fire attacks for him in less than ten seconds...
Even if the Draconic Beastman had an abnormal body, he still became covered in burns and bruises in a short time.
”Fortunately you were there, haha...” Suval's mood became cheerful. He held Xiuban in place to block the fire attack for him while laughing hysterically.
As for Xiuban's life and death, Suval simply didn't care...
If Mafa Merlin's attendant died, then he died, would Mafa dare to kill him at this moment?
Hatred flashed in Suval's eyes. He hated Mafa Merlin, and that included everyone close to him. In fact, if he had the ability, he wouldn't mind dealing with that Reina too.
In any case, since he couldn't deal with Mafa Merlin himself, he might as well get rid of the subordinates.
Such as that brainless Beastman. The idiot had a terrified expression when the flames hit him, and Suval delighted in the Beastman's fear, imagining Mafa in the Beastman's place...
”Wait, what's that?” A huge hand abruptly appeared out of nowhere...
Suval's smile immediately froze.
That hand that fell down had already caught him...
”F*ck!” Suval shouted in surprise. At that time, the Flame Shackles spell was interrupted and Xiuban fell down to the ground.
As for Suval...
