Novel Full Chapter 150 Lions And Rabbits
[Level Up]
[Level Up]
Seeing two level-up notifications instantly appear in front of her, Pride rose her eyebrows in surprise before turning towards Eliza’s direction and seeing her sitting on the wall not too far from the corpse of Leviron.
‘Oh, so she killed him, and the kid levelled up, so I levelled up too.’
She instantly figured out the reason for her sudden level up, her eyes gleaming as she had a sudden idea.
‘Let’s try this…’
Pride manipulated her energy and waved her hand, a dark silhouette forming beside her as a large arm-shaped construct composed solely of aura was formed.
However, in the next moment, it shattered into pieces and the aura was re-absorbed into her body.
‘Seems like I haven’t gotten to that stage yet, huh?
It was too much to expect to use a peak grandmaster level aura technique that easily.’
While she was running her tests with herself, Glavore had gotten up from the ground while salvaging what was left of its armour.
Its ragged undershirt was completely exposed, with the remaining parts of its armour just being barely enough to protect its arms.
As for the armour protecting its torso, it had been completely destroyed, just like the armour on its right leg and left thigh.
“I’m bored.”
The high demon remarked off-handedly, her apathetic gaze turning over to the sorry state of the blade wraith.
“Flames of Hubris.”
Her Pride Embodiment skill went into full drive as it channelled the power of hubris into her sword, igniting it with her demonic energy and causing her sword to be engulfed in her signature black flames.
She took slow and steady steps towards the flame sword master, her sword dragging on the floor and melting the ground where she walked by.
Glavore, perhaps sensing that pride intended to end things, took a stance with its sword engulfed in its flaming aura.
Its red eyes locked onto Pride, not wanting to miss even the slightest movement from her.
It was then that a message came in from her contractor, through the link that the both of them shared.
[Pride, can you help me check if there’s any other monster around? This thing’s armour was restored by some weird means and I can’t seem to figure it out.]
‘Got It.’
She spread out her aura as she spoke to the blade wraith in front of her, her speech only being a means to buy enough time for her to be completely sure there wasn’t anything else in the monster room.
Of course, it was also what she really thought.
“You are not worth me using my actual techniques, but as a Lion brings its all to hunt even a mere rabbit, I shall take you seriously even if you are just a mere ant to be squashed under my feet.”
She stabbed her sword into the ground and ran her hands through her glossy black hair, retying it back into a ponytail as she sent a message back to Evan.
‘There’s nothing else in the room.’
As for Glavore, a monster with intelligence, it understood her words and was enraged at being looked down upon.
Naturally, it did not miss this chance as she had dropped her sword, kicking off the ground and dashing towards Pride at a speed so fast it actions seemed like a blur.
“AHHH!!”
It roared loudly as It lunged towards Pride with great force while surrounded by bright red flames.
Just when it thought that Pride would be caught by its attack, her aura suddenly flared up as she grabbed her sword and dashed forward, carving the ground in her wave as she moved.
She moved towards the incoming blade wraith and swung her sword in an upward arc as she called out softly.
“Origin Sword.”
*SWISH!
There was a barely audible sound as her sword cut through three things.
The wind,
Her opponent’s sword, and lastly,
Glavore itself.
A dull extinguishing sound rang out as Glavore’s flame aura died out, the light in its eyes dimming as its body split apart into two equal halves before falling to the ground.
Seeing two halves of the dead blade wraith’s corpse falling to the floor, Pride heaved a sigh as she spoke to herself.
“You died before I could even complete the technique…”
She turned around and swung her sword in the air, flicking off the blood on the black blade as she walked in the direction of Evan who was concluding his battle with Elecrus at the time.
◇ ◇ ◇
The ‘Eternal of Time and Destruction’ propped his hand upon his thigh and rested his chin on his palm as he watched the demon of Pride split the unfortunate Glavore in two with her sword.
“Took them less than an hour, a lot shorter than I had expected…”
He loudly yawned without a care, tapping his hand in the air as another screen manifested beside the one which he used to watch the events going on in the monster room.
Panning the bird’s eye view on the screen around, he searched the entirety of the first ten floors of the mansion of the damned for any trio of monsters that fit his preferences but saw none, clicking his tongue in irritation upon this discovery.
“There are stronger blade wraiths but no trio close to each other with the elements I want.”
Taking his hand off the screen, it shattered and faded into particles of light as he turned his gaze back to the first screen.
“Well…that was quite entertaining.
Especially that Eliza kid, to think her ‘Child of Life’ could go that far. I thought it was gonna stick to the worldly laws but even if it was only a tiny minuscule fraction of it, the skill allowed her to tap into the universal law of life and stop that blade wraith’s regeneration process, even going as far as to cause its healing to work in reverse.
Being able to use such a skill while being an existence below the sovereign realm is already grounds for her to be considered a singularity.
As for Evan, he really amazes me with how he acts. He possesses the knowledge of the sword skills and technique of a near transcendent level existence but doesn’t seem to be making use of it at all, instead, he went on to mimic the moves of a blade wraith that just became a master not too long ago.”
The man shook his head as he thought about how Evan was casually ignoring the golden finger that landed in his lap.
But that’s not gonna last long, it’s in her nature to be prideful and holding that back is only going to make things worse when she finally snaps.”
**BOOOOM!!!!
As he was monologuing to himself, there was a loud explosion as the skies cracked open to reveal the silhouettes of dozens, possibly hundreds of beings.
|[email protected]“h2d!|
The ground trembled as a loud voice filled with rage, screamed out something that sounded like gibberish.
However, the after-effects of that scream, showed that whatever was screamed out, was far from being mere gibberish
**BZZZTT!!
**KER-CHRRaaaaaaaannKKKKKKK!!
There was a buzzing sound, followed by the noise of something that sounded as if a gear that was about to fall into place, suddenly had an increased amount of load to deal with and croaked under the stress.
Golden tendrils of lightning snaked around the heterochromatic-eyed man as he frowned in displeasure before gazing up at the dozens of beings floating in the air.
Her opened his mouth to speak, his voice changing as he utilized his ‘true voice’ for the first time since coming to this universe.
|Are you stupid?
Or are you all just a bunch of idiots? |
The recipients of his question, were obviously displeased as they descended from the parted clouds, each of them carrying at least two pairs of glistening white wings that shone with bright white lights.
Standing on the forefront, was a huge, slender white knight with five pairs of large white wings, glowing white eyes, and a distinct white crest.
He also wore golden armour over an intricate white and blue robe, and wielded a large gray spear.
Floating adjacent to him, were a dozen beings dressed in similar clothing, with all of them possessing similarly large wings and holding various weapons ranging from swords and spears to maces and axes.
Behind them was a legion of soldiers dressed in white battle armour with all of them having two or three pairs of wings and gripping their weapons tightly as they looked at the sitting ‘Eternal’.
Ignoring their grand entrance, the man who all these beings gazed at continued his questioning, his voice becoming louder as cracks formed in the space around him with each word.
|Anyone with a brain would know that saying out my real name in this fucking universe is a goddamn taboo! |
