Just then, an explosion caught them by surprise. This latest explosion created a strong gust of wind that blew away the dust that accumulated in the air. There they saw Rigel who was still facing the chimera however they did not see any other people in the vicinity.

They jumped back and out of the area of battle because they knew that they would only get in the way. Their eyes followed the movements of the chimera and Rigel who were exchanging attacks in a reckless manner. The chimera was now full of wounds as the time passed and as they continued to engage in battle.

Cygnus narrowed his eyes because the chimera in front of him was slowly healing. It must have been the work of the necromancer. He only caught a glimpse of the man before he disappeared but his control of the chimera was indeed impressive.

He knew that the necromancer was nearby but he won\'t go after him yet. He will slowly destroy the chimera and give the necromancer a reason to think that he was actually weak. The grueling battle dragged on until the chimera\'s flesh started to turn into liquid and fell down.

The two young men who watched this go on couldn\'t help but cover their mouths because it was simply horrible. The flesh of the chimera was slowly falling down only to leave the bones intact. It was a gruesome scene.

Cygnus on the other hand was also riddled with gashes and shallow wounds with his clothes all torn here and there. He ran forward while disappearing and appearing around the chimera which created confusion within the enemy. The master then finally stopped above the snake and using his bare hands, he grabbed the snake\'s head tightly before forcefully pulling it apart.

The snake\'s flesh splattered towards him and on the ground but he did not care. He looked at the head on his hand and used his flames to burn it. A loud roar came from the lion\'s head after their tail was pulled. Fire came out from its mouth and towards the man but Cygnus only used his palm to stop it.

"I\'m getting bored with this. Don\'t you have any more fun creatures in your collection?" Cygnus mumbled but he knew that the necromancer could hear him.

Even though he was considered powerful, there was still a limit to how long he could keep a monster body moving with his magic. He could bring them back to their peak form and use them to fight but the man who was fighting his creation was of a different level.

Cygnus dodged the second round of fire that the lion sent his way and also stopped the lightning from the goat. Both of the attacks were stronger and fiercer but all of this did not matter to him though. He could easily disintegrate them by just touching them and he would be doing it now because he couldn\'t fight the chimera anymore. It became too weak within his eyes.

He jumped in the air and let his body freely fall down directly at the back of the monster and with only a light tap, the monster stopped moving. It looked like it froze and slowly it turned gray followed by the appearance of cracks on its skin until it finally became an ash.

"I destroyed your toy. Are you going to keep on hiding in there or would you prefer it if I should come and visit you?" He laughed at nothing in particular and he was speaking to an empty space.

Another lance appeared above Cygnus but he managed to dodge the lance and land safely to the side. His eyes were focused on the lance that was stuck on the ground. Not long after, a figure appeared beside the lance with an evil grin on his face.

"I will admit that you are good and I know that you haven\'t shown your true power yet," the necromancer spoke for the first time. His voice was gritty and was a bit unpleasant to the ear.

"If you want to see my power, I can show it to you." Cygnus flashed in front of the necromancer and in that moment a short gap was created.

The necromancer fell to his knees and was looking at the person with wide eyes. He couldn\'t believe that after hundreds of years, he would meet a person with so much darkness within him. He considered himself strong but in front of this person, he was nothing.

"Are you worth my time?" He spoke to actually provoke the man. "If this is how you decide to get defeated then you are much weaker than those I have fought in the past."

Cygnus snickered and gave the man a condescending look. While he was enjoying that moment, a lance struck him on the back and pierced through his body. The master looked at the sharp end of the lance that was protruding from his chest. The necromancer stood from his position and took a step back before several more appeared and impaled Cygnus\'s body.

Blood was dripping from the wounds and on to the ground. The soil was getting soaked with blood but the necromancer did not flinch. It was only an act he did not get his enemy\'s attention and it was successful. He looked at Cygnus\'s unmoving body before turning his attention to the other two who were hiding from him.

Ezio and Isaiah were frozen in their place after they witnessed the brutal demise of Rigel. They couldn\'t process what just happened because of the bleeding man that was impaled with lances not far away. They only came back to their senses when the necromance appeared before them.

"The two of you are weak," the necromancer declared. He released his aura which rendered them immobile and he also summoned two lances that were floating on both of his sides.

Beads of sweat were falling on the side of their faces but no matter how they did it, they couldn\'t move their bodies. They were stuck because of the pressure caused by the aura from the necromancer. Ezio gritted his teeth as he stared at the lance that started to fly towards them.

In the last moment possible, he managed to force his body to move to the side and dodge the lance while Isaiah managed to summon a lightning bolt that intercepted the lance and rendered it useless. The necromancer frowned when he saw them defying his pressure and even dodging and stopping his lance.

He was not happy because of what happened so he summoned more lances and aimed them at the other two who just regained their balance. These lances flew towards them without warning but Isaiah was not going to back down. From above the necromancer, he created a magic circle and used it to stop the lances and hopefully injuring the necromancer.

"Release!" Isaiah commanded and lightning came falling down. It struck all the lances that were about to attack them.

The lightning also struck the enemy but it did not have an effect on him. There\'s no reaction or whatsoever from the man. His face remained stoic and gone was the kneeling necromancer.

Before he could do anything more though, they heard a crunching sound coming from where Cygnus died. They all looked behind them and were shocked at what they saw. Despite the weapons on his body, Cygnus stood up and opened his eyes to look at them.

"Ah, that really hurt." He held the blade of one of the lances stuck on his body and pulled it. The long handle of the lance passed from his back towards the front.

More blood came gushing out from the open wound he had but he did not mind. Since he could not pull out all the lances on his body, he took the liberty of using a small amount of his power to disintegrate all the other lances still on his body.

There was blood all over the place but this did not bother Cygnus and the necromancer\'s attention returned to him. He fully turned towards his direction with his eyes full of curiosity. He wanted to know how his enemy was able to stand up even after receiving such fatal attacks.
