Chapter 1008
Mishiel felt the clash of light and darkness elements near her. She looked back and saw that the werewolf is actually trying to pierce the barrier she created to ward off external factors to the boy. She has yet to start the ritual and needs the boy for her plan to succeed.
She has been trying to open a crack to the Silver City by collecting lots of light elemental energy. She would have only needed two more days to succeed but the arrival of the three hindered her operation. She also has trouble trying to purify the body of the boy with her light elemental magic because it is being repelled by an unknown force. .
Mishiel became incredibly frustrated as the three might be weakened but they are becoming a nuisance to her. She also needs to dodge any attacks made by them because they could taint her light element with darkness element which would weaken her.
“A chance! Shunpo: Third Stance – Flash Sparrow.” Awraka muttered as she once again vanished from her location.
Mishiel felt someone behind her and instinctively knew that it was Awraka. The assassin is trying to target her back where the mark is again, but she already prepared for that. A magic circle made appeared behind her and blasted a Light Ray. Awraka would have been hit but the figure behind Mishiel became an afterimage.
Awraka’s Shunpo: Third Stance – Flash Sparrow is a skill that lets her move freely in the air for a given period of time. It is only meant for mobility and evasion than for attacking. She could then be seen traversing the neck of the Goddess Luminaria statue which provoked Mishiel as well.
She could take being tormented but any disrespect towards her creator goddess is not to be tolerated. She created more Light Rays and fired it towards Awraka, but the latter easily dodged it due to the increased mobility that she possessed.
Awraka then increased her speed for a moment as she jumped from the neck to the face of the statue. She collected all the momentum that she built up on her right hand to punch the right eye of the Goddess Luminaria statue. Something like a light spirit escaped the eye and a notification suddenly popped up.
[You have destroyed the right eye of the Goddess Luminaria statue that looks down on all those not created by her.]
[The effect of the statue has decreased. Your stats are now decreased by 5% instead of 10%.]
Awraka then looked at the other eye of the statue, but beams of light prevented her from going to the other one. She immediately dodged by stomping the face of the Goddess Luminaria statue to push her away from the Light Rays. A crack also appeared on the face of the Goddess Luminaria statue which made Mishiel even more enraged as the beauty of her creator goddess got tainted.
Mishiel is about to unleash her most powerful spell, but she heard something crack in the distance. The that she created to isolate the little boy is finally broken. Lycan finally pierced the barrier when his stat reduction only turned to 5%. He immediately took the boy and made a run for the exit.
“You dare!” Mishiel shouted as the light elemental energy in the surroundings started to shake.
Numerous light elemental magic circles appeared all around the dungeon. All the magic circles are of the spell Light Ray, and it is pointed in all different directions. The Light Rays fired which filled the entire hidden dungeon with numerous blinding rays of light.
Solstice immediately let go of her hold on the two angel statues to cover for Lycan and the boy. She immediately covered them with the blood field as she has no way of protecting them. They looked like parents trying to protect their child from the dangers of the world.
Awraka could only trust her ultimate technique by being faster than light itself. She does not have any defensive spell that could make her immune to anything, but she does have a skill that can make her burst into great speed for three seconds. Three seconds is enough time for her to do what she needs to do.
“Advent of the Flash Goddess!” Awraka stated as her whole body became overcharged with kinetic energy to the point that sparks of electricity could be seen manifesting around her.
The blinding light that illuminated the whole dungeon subsided and the scene of Awraka stabbing her golden claw middle finger on the back of Mishiel. Mishiel could not believe that she got attacked when all the light element in the surroundings were under her control. She puked blood as her health immediately dropped to 50%.
Mishiel also got stunned in the process as she dropped to the ground. Awraka immediately made her way to the three to check on their status. The blood sphere that protected them got unsummoned which showed the damaged bodies of Solstice and Lycan. Even though both of them were injured, they managed to protect the boy as even a strand of hair is not damaged.
“Let us go to the exit.” Solstice stated as they immediately ran for the exit.
The three did not need to kill Mishiel as they only needed to bring the boy back. Awraka’s that decreases an opponent’s health to 50% immediately only works every 72 hours. She will not be able to use it again on the same opponent in succession or else she would have easily killed any enemy slower than her.
Just as the three are a few seconds away from the exit, a huge pillar of light exploded to where Mishiel dropped down. A scream of pure frustration echoed in the hidden dungeon as a bloody dressed Mishiel rose to the sky. She then burst into pure light energy as two halos emerged from behind her.
The statues in the hidden dungeon suddenly gathered towards her as she made use of every light element in it. The broken statues circled around her and created two pairs of wings made of rubble. It is not only wings that are created as three pairs of arms are created as well. Mishiel is now in full rampage mode as she is incredibly angry.
“You vile vermin! Face the wrath of light!” Mishiel shouted as the six arms made of rubble are sent flying towards the group.
Solstice then stabbed herself with the blood sword she created to sacrifice 30% of her health to create a shield made of blood. The six rubble arms collided with the blood shield which made Solstice grunt as the blow is incredibly heavy. The force of the punch of the six rubble arms overpowered Solstice eventually which blew the group towards the exit.
Lycan managed to protect the boy, but he got sent flying by the punch. Solstice almost died as she blocked the next hit as well. Awraka is also stunned as she lost a lot of health immediately even though she only got hit by the force of the impact. Luckily for them, they were blown out of the hidden dungeon, but they should not sigh with relief just yet.
The three thinks that they are now safe since Mishiel is the boss of the hidden dungeon which means she could not leave. Just as they thought that they are now safe, the mountains started to rumble which made them lose color on their faces. Mishiel is much more powerful than them as one of her hits could easily kill them, but she was also a glass cannon type of enemy.
Even though she was a glass cannon type of enemy, it is difficult to even damage her. She is not the type to get hit easily and Awraka even made use of her most powerful skill to just reach her. The figure of the four winged and six armed Mishiel could be seen rising from the mountains. She even destroyed a part of the mountain just to make a point that she is powerful.
[Hidden Dungeon Boss: Mishiel has transformed into a Field Boss.]
“What the heck! That can happen?” Lycan cursed as he has yet to experience that.
This phenomenon only happens when the boss monster chases the invaders. They usually do not leave their territories, but they can when they are capable. The boss monsters will not lose any stats by becoming a field boss, but it will lose its home court advantage.
“Awraka! We will stall as much time as we can. Carry the boy to the kingdom.” Solstice stated as she decided that she will sacrifice her life.
Lycan then forcibly limped towards Awraka to give the boy to her. She has recovered from her stunned state, but she is still slowed down due to the aftereffects. This did not deter her from steeling her resolve as she carried the boy and proceeded to start running despite her legs starting to spurt blood.
