Chapter 543 Grasp
As the Archbishop escaped from the building, Eustace secretly unleashed his Shadow Soldier.
During this time, the Archbishop was hovering in the air, oblivious to the shadow he cast on the ground. Eustace saw this as a chance to get rid of the intruder and possibly extract some valuable information from him. He blended his Shadow Soldier with the crowd below, and the Archbishop mistook it for another Arcanist within his Magic Zone.
“Come… Heretics of the Order of Fatality. Show me what you’ve got!” The Archbishop bellowed, making sure everyone on the street could hear him. ๐.๐โด๐
“What? Did he say the Order of Fatality?!”
“Yes! They’re Cultists!”
“Look… Those two must be the heroes who killed the Evil Entity. Why did the Archbishop call them Heretics?”
“There must be a misunderstanding.”
“No, I think that those two got possessed and are now serving the Cult.”
“Impossible… The Archbishop can purify them if that’s the case. They must be genuine cult members.”
The people on the street began to gossip and spread rumors based on what they heard.
“Hmph! You think that slandering us will make us back off? Keep dreaming!” Eustace retorted as he commanded his Shadow Soldier to strike the Archbishop’s shadow!
“Ahhh!”
The moment the Shadow Soldier plunged its dark blade into the Archbishop’s shadow, the Archbishop coughed up blood as he felt his vital organ being punctured!
Eustace smirked as he saw the Archbishop’s expression of pain and shock.
‘Shadow Mutilation is really the best assassination Spell.’ Eustace mused as he continued observing the surroundings. After all, he knew that the Archbishop should not be alone this time.
Unfortunately, as he thought of ending the battle, something unexpected happened.
The Archbishop swiftly recovered and glared at Eustace with a furious look.
“You dare to use such a vile and dark magic on me? You are truly a heretic and a blasphemer! I will show you the wrath of the Holy Light!” The Archbishop then chanted a spell and summoned a floating radiant sword in his hand. At the same time he did this, his Holy Energy also suppressed the Shadow Soldier and dissipated into nothingness.
He then waved his hand, commanding the radiant sword to pierce Eustace.
Whooosh~
A wave of holy energy sliced through the air, alarming even the crowd below them.
Eustace wanted to dodge, but he suddenly felt a strong binding spell on his feet!
It seemed that the remnant Holy Energy in the room had been controlled and became a binding spell under the Archbishop’s command!
Luckily, it wasn’t too strong, so he only needed to channel his brute force to escape.
Bam!
The Radiant Sword hit the room and destroyed the place. The wall and part of the ceiling collapsed while the floor had also started crumbling!
The Spell was so potent that even Constance had to escape from the attack.
“Ughโฆ” Eustace grunted as he barely dodged the attack. Then, he felt a burning sensation on his arm.
He looked and saw a deep wound that was bleeding profusely. He realized that the Archbishop’s sword was too strong!
He quickly poured a few bottles of healing potion on it to quickly recover.
“Don’t look surprised. That Archbishop is using his own life force. Look at him.” Constance suddenly commented as she gestured for Eustace to look at the old man.
Indeed, as soon as he saw that the old man had aged a lot and had grown more white hair, Eustace realized that Constance was telling the truth. The Archbishop was using his own life to attack him!
‘This old man had gone insaneโฆ’ Eustace thought as he knew he had to be careful. A crazed man who had nothing to lose was definitely the most dangerous opponent.
Eustace then activated his Shadow Soldier Spell once again and targeted the shadow near the Archbishop’s shadow.
He wanted to be secretive about it. However, this time, the Archbishop had already noticed his action and was about to destroy this soldier with his Holy Aura.
‘Not this timeโฆ’ Eustace was quick and decided to use his other ability, the Shadow Shift. ๐๐๐๐ช.๐๐
This was still part of the Shadow Soldier Spell, but it could only be used once the Spell Model had transformed to its Advanced Realm state.
Anyway, with this Shadow Shift Spell, he could swap places with his Shadow Soldier at any time, creating confusion and deception.
As soon as he activated his Shadow Shift, he switched positions with his Shadow Soldier.
It happened so quickly that the Archbishop was caught off guard and felt another stab in his chest. He groaned and tried to suppress the pain by using a Healing Spell.
‘So he can really attack my shadowโฆ I didn’t see it wrong just now. What kind of ability is this? No, this guy is not a Summoner!’ The Archbishop finally realized Eustace’s secret as he planned to run away.
At this time, he had no way of protecting his shadow from Eustace’s attacks. He could heal his injuries and survive some fatal attacks, but he couldn’t do it for a long time.
He wasn’t prepared for it at all!
He didn’t have unlimited Holy Energy, and once he got exhausted, Eustace’s next strike on his shadow would be fatal.
“I’ll come back and—” The Archbishop didn’t finish his words as Eustace had already appeared behind him and grabbed his neck.
“Y-you can fly at such speed?!”
The Archbishop was surprised, and the crowd below also gasped in shock. They didn’t expect that the Archbishop would be in such a position!
As the Archbishop circulated his internal energy to resist Eustace’s hold, he suddenly felt his strength weakened!
Then, he heard Eustace whisper in his ear. “Now, let’s see what secrets you are hiding.”
At this time, Eustace didn’t hesitate to use his Extraction System. Furthermore, he focused on extracting the fragments of the old man’s memory!
The Archbishop struggled and screamed, but it was futile.
Eustace had him in his grasp.
