Chapter 550

C550

Octavia focused exclusively on the two individuals.

To be precise, she couldn’t afford that luxury.

Murakan hadn’t feared Misha for no reason.

There were barely a dozen people in the world who could afford to take things lightly when dealing with her.

Moreover, as she was fighting alongside Jin, it wasn’t an easy task for Octavia, even considering she was leading all the Specters in the battle.

On the other hand, Jin and Misha also didn’t directly attack Octavia even after using erosion.

That was a testimony to the perfection of their magic, forming an impeccable defense.

“The dead Specter showed an opening while avoiding your magic.”

As she said.

The dead Specter was trying to avoid the magic Octavia had just used to deal with the Shadow Energy dolls.

“I can understand it without your kind explanation, Misha.”

“Really? I was just saying it to get on your nerves.”

“Then you succeed. If you want a messier fight, I’ll be more than willing to oblige.”

Octavia aimed her staff at the Vamel Alliance and the sword saints.

“We have also surpassed the providence of death. But can you claim the same?”

“Murakan!”

Hundreds of rays of light shot out from her staff faster than Misha’s voice.

The light beam casually tore through Murakan’s Shadow Energy curtain, which blocked the front, and aimed at the people inside.

Through the torn Shadow Energy curtain, they could see martial artists cutting through the lightning bolts.

Especially notable was the sword of the leader of the sword saints, Ruyan.

As soon as the curtain was pierced, Ruyan stepped forward alone and showed his incredible strength by deflecting almost half of the penetrating lightning bolts on his own.

After that, the rest of the sword saints and the Vamel Alliance took the offensive against the Specters.

“Haaaa!”

It was Lata’s shout.

While assisting the relatively melee-weak Amela, he took a light lightning to the chest.

“Oh, cutie!”

“Are you crazy? Calling me that in this situation?”

“You’re a cutie! Are you okay?”

“If you’re in your right mind, make a shield or something with your murky energy!”

“It’s all broken!”

Fortunately, Lata’s wound wasn’t deep, but in a battle like this, even that would become apparent quickly.

Following Valkas, the Proch siblings, Amela, Kashimir, Alisa, Yulian, Kuzan, and Murakan, the Five Sword Saints of Hairan, who opened the Lord’s sword, were also on the defensive.

However, Octavia’s magic easily pressed them.

“You still have time to scream.”

Just as the lightning bolts were about to fire again, Jin and Misha blocked Octavia once more.

The black lance and the Shadow Energy stained with Bradamante fell from her back and front.

Once again, only afterimages were left in the place where the sword and the lance were embedded.

Octavia quickly dominated the battlefield with such high mobility that it was impossible to think of her as a magician.

Every time she changed position, flashes of light pierced the eyes, and the battlefield on the ground, which had split into two, became one again.

If Jin were alone, it would have been impossible to fight while protecting the allies.

A few would have already been fatally injured, or maybe even dead.

I have to focus.

‘If I show an opening, Octavia will attack my companions behind me now, not Miss Misha and me.’

First Technique of the Shadow Blade: Soul Slash.

Second Technique: Scissors.

Seventh Technique: Shadow Assault.

The swords Jin always used as a means to create variables in critical moments were being continuously employed.

Occasionally, the attacks reached Octavia, but they only inflicted small cuts or scratches.

The erosion lightning bolts were coming to an end. When the lightning bolts ceased, Octavia could attack their allies more freely.

Jin had to prepare the most powerful magic sword while not stopping his attacks. Misha also had the same thoughts as Jin.

Furthermore, they had to think about the “next.”

Even though the battle with Octavia had ended, the war would continue.

Now, Kelliark was being pushed back, but it was unknown how the battle situation would change the moment the Demon God Orb was unlocked.

That’s why Jin chose the magic sword instead of the Sword of the Reign of the Kingdom of Legends.

‘He’s executing the magic sword as Hedo-nim mentioned.’

Octavia accurately predicted Jin Runcandel’s magic sword secret technique.

She also learned about the power of Hellfire from Hedo, so she finished thinking about how to deal with it.

Flames suddenly spread in the light scattered everywhere. It was Octavia’s eyes spreading the flames.

Crimson Flame Gaze – Octavia Zipple

It was Octavia’s Final Movement that transformed from the Blue Flame Gaze.

It was an upgraded version not to lose power even in the ‘real blue flame.’

‘The problem is not Jin Runcandel’s magic sword but Misha’s black lance.’

That was something even Octavia couldn’t predict.

After fighting Misha on the island of Beradin two years ago, Octavia searched all of Zipple’s records to find information about Misha.

There weren’t many records.

The predecessors of the Specters who fought against her were either dead or insane, unable to leave proper records.

But the way Misha killed the predecessors of the Specters was mostly not in direct confrontation but in the form of prolonged and grotesque murder.

This was the reason why the predecessors of the Specters couldn’t leave a proper record.

For decades, he had killed them physically and mentally like a ghost.

“There must be something. The Warrior who has been tested so far is transcendental.”

Whatever it was.

Octavia was confident in facing it head-on. The position of the second magician of Zipple was never obtained in vain.

Octavia wanted a clash of pure strength and power instead of catching something like a Shadow Energy doll.

Crimson Flame Gaze melted the ground.

The Warriors’ feet were deeply embedded in the molten ground, emitting a smell of burnt flesh.

One after another, the wounded began to appear on Jin’s side. Lata took a deep breath and fell back, and the magical spell directed at him was barely dodged by Kashimir, Amela, and Fey.

However, they also had a handful of fresh blood on their lips.

Yulian’s Thunderbow ‘Harmilla’ fired a stronger bolt than before, but it was almost a last effort.

Kuzan, who protected him, continued to drink extreme poison to try to regain his vitality, but even that wouldn’t last much longer.

Valkas, fully armed Alisa, and Murakan along with the Sword Saints were holding their ground, but at this rate, casualties were only a matter of time.

Octavia’s attack added to it, and the Sword Lord’s defensive formation was also slightly disturbed.

However, in the midst of the unstable situation, the Sword Saints and Jin’s companions did not think they would die soon.

It wasn’t because they thought they were superior to the Specters, and that Jin and Misha were stronger than Octavia.

It was the power of existence.

The mysterious and inexplicable power that the ancient Runcandels had sensed from Temar, and that Talaris had identified in Jin, was dispelling the fears of their comrades.

Octavia also stared at the power emanating from Jin.

She concentrated even more to erase the dirty intuition.

“It’s still more of an illusion, just like Misha’s Shadow Energy doll. Before it becomes real…”

I have to break it.

At that moment, Jin’s magical sword technique was executed.

Just as Octavia expected.

“Do you think you can do anything against me with the remnants of the ancient Runcandel!”

Crimson flames rose as if a mountain had sprung up out of nowhere.

And the mana of the wind mixed into it.

Octavia was the new contractor of the Wind God, Melzaire, and Jin had realized it recently.

The wild and fierce wind, incomparable to Andrei Zipple’s magic, known as the King of the Wind, was blowing the crimson flames.

The storm of crimson flames engulfed the magical sword’s flames that had just started to bloom.

The blue flame, which was supposed to spread by riding the runes left by Sarah Runcandel, was swallowed by the Crimson Flames.

The runes scattered in the wind and couldn’t easily find their place, and Jin’s body, which had turned into fire itself, swayed precariously as if it would extinguish at any moment.

Octavia’s scattered light spell was replaced by fire mana and further strengthened her magic.

Octavia judged that she dominated Jin’s Hellfire.

The essence of the magician named Octavia filled the battlefield on the ground.

“Now, all that’s left is Misha’s final move.”

It seemed like anything flying from anywhere wouldn’t be a problem.

The wind and the power of the crimson flames had already made the entire area their domain.

But in the next moment.

Octavia looked into Jin’s blue eyes…

She couldn’t help but doubt why he was so calm and firm.

They weren’t the eyes of a person being dragged down by a blow.

“Well… I haven’t seen this in a long time. I had forgotten.”

Contrary to what Octavia thought, Misha didn’t prepare his own decisive move to kill.

What he prepared was a recreation of the battle a thousand years ago when he fought alongside Sarah Runcandel.

Just before executing the Hellfire, Jin received these words from Misha.

“Don’t be afraid even if the Hellfire is extinguished with Octavia’s magic. I will be your strength.”

Misha, who had transformed into his true form before anyone knew it, spread his wings behind Jin.

Just as he protected Sarah’s back in a fierce battlefield a thousand years ago.

The reason why so many magicians in the world always chose Solderet as the supreme god was no different.

It was due to the superiority of the power called “Shadow Energy.”

Magicians have always longed for Solderet to open new horizons in their magic through the power of Shadow Energy.

And, although most magicians don’t know it…

Shadow Energy was originally a power more suitable for a sword than for magic.

And more suitable for a magical sword than for a regular sword, and Misha was a black dragon specialized in the power of Shadow Energy itself rather than individual power.

Misha had always supported Runcandel in this way.

“Did you say the remnant of the ancient Runcandel?”

Misha’s wings were stained with blue flames.

In addition, the blue flames that enveloped his skin regained their form, and the runes of Sarah, which were lost in the storm of crimson flames, strengthened with Shadow Energy and found their place.

The crimson flames and the winds of Melzaire retreated.

The more that happened, the stronger the mana Octavia released, and she was clearly ahead in terms of power.

However, there was no choice but to have a limit when it came to the “case” of strength.

“That’s wrong. This kid’s magical sword is the current Runcandel itself. Bold mortal Zipple.”

Runcandel Magic Sword Secret Technique

Hellfire – Jin Runcandel, Shadowless Shadow of the Black Spear

While Jin brandished Bradamante, black and blue flames struck Octavia like a tidal wave.
