BXBX NOVEL Chapter 340 Elvira
Elvira started to sweat but she did not back down. She would not let this man hurt the royal family. They were the pillars who could protect Lunaira and its people.
"You are truly patriotic," Cygnus said. He never failed to stare at the woman who was giving him a glare.
Elvira gulped as the pressure inside the room increased and had the very intention of crushing her. She gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. The man was truly intimidating but she had a thousand years to strengthen herself. In the blink of an eye, a water dome appeared and engulfed the woman.
She used that opportunity to gather herself and stand her ground. Within that dome, nothing could influence her. She didn't know the extent of his power so she needed to prepare herself. On her body, blue water started to gather and cover her.
The water that covered her entire body solidified into an armor. This was an armor she created and perfected even though no one in the continent could defeat her. It was her absolute defense, an armor that nothing could pierce.
Cygnus looked at the dome that was destroying his office and frowned. He waved his hand and the study turned into a place void of anything. They were floating in that dimension without anyone to disturb them and he could do whatever he wanted.
He raised his hand and pointed at the dome. An invisible force blew the dome away and revealed the woman who was hiding in there. Elvira was surprised at the disappearance of the dome and at the place where they were now. She looked around but she did not see anything or anyone.
Her expression remained calm but she was panicking inside. She had no idea of what happened and how they came to that place. The only thing she knew was that the man in front of her did it. She sighed and with the armor around her, she could still try her luck.
A long whip made out of water appeared on her hand. She decided to ignore the place and focused on the man who was looking at her. Wherever she was, she knew that defeating the man would return her to her world.
She swung her whip and the end of it reached Cygnus but it did not connect. The whip broke even before reaching the man. There was something that was protecting Cygnus from any attacks. Elvira tried to reach him again using her weapon but the whip would always break. Even with the other attacks she did not reach him.
Cygnus smirked. He was enjoying this encounter and he could see something interesting from the woman. After giving Elvira her chance, it was his turn. He jumped from where he was standing as he grabbed a sword from their infinity storage. He swung down the sword and the woman blocked it using her hands.
Cygnus felt like he was cutting through something soft. Elvira pushed both of her hands which made the Cygnus fly back. He landed on his feet and turned to balance himself. He held the sword and stood straight as he faced the woman.
His left hand was behind him and his right hand held the sword. He was wearing a smirk as he moved forward again. He started to move from side to side and eventually was moving in a zigzag line that tricked the woman's eyes. Elvira did not move and waited for the blow to come. She trusted her shield.
Cygnus grinned and appeared on her right side. He swung the sword and it effectively connected. Even though he was not able to cut through, the force of his attack was enough to send the woman reeling to the side. She rolled and with her hand, she stopped herself from sliding too much.
"That armor of yours is pretty interesting." Cygnus tilted his head to the side before disappearing again and appearing above the woman.
The sword was lifted high and the master brought it down. Elvira rolled to the side to avoid the blow. The sword and the invisible floor created a loud clunking sound that created a reverberation that ran through the whole place.
Elvira brandished her weapon once again and tried to attack but just like before it was useless. She tried again and again but nothing happened. She then changed tactics and used her ice attribute to attack. Her hands touched the cold ground and an array of pointed and hardened ice attacked the master.
Cygnus jumped a few times to avoid the ice attack. While on air, he swung his sword and the wave it created destroyed all the ice. He did not stop there and swung two more times to attack the woman who was hiding behind her ice magic.
The woman's armor once again deflected the blow. Elvira was perfectly fine but the pain from those attacks were still enough to make her dizzy. She was glad that the armor managed to protect her from getting any deep wounds but she did not expect that she could still feel the impact from those attacks.
She was afraid that if she did not have the armor, she would have died several times because of how deadly the man's attacks were. While she was pondering about this, Cygnus was already ready to execute one of his moves. He twirled his sword and then held it with only his right hand.
He then held the sword above his head with its end facing the sky. The woman looked up and saw that a red magic circle was already above her. A large sword appeared and when Cygnus slashed forward, the sword in the sky fell. Elvira had no other choice but to create her dome and reinforce it with ice.
She was not sure if the armor could protect her from the power but she had to try. The ground below her slowly cracked even though she couldn't see it because of the dark smoke that was covering it. She had both of her hands up to maintain the dome but she was getting pushed.
Her knees were already bent and slowly she was already kneeling on one foot. 'I can't let him defeat me that easily,' she thought to herself and at that moment, she was suddenly coated with light.
It was warm and it filled her with power. With a shout, she pushed her hands up and managed to widen her dome. It then matched the power of the sword that was attempting to crush her. Cygnus felt it, the power that could injure him. He grimaced and his black eyes turned red.
At this point on, the warning signal of Ari once again sounded. "The master's insanity level is now at 75% and it is rapidly increasing."
"Why is it increasing? And where is the master?" Mr. C immediately asked after hearing the announcement.
"The master's current location is unknown. I cannot access my connection with the master. His insanity level is now at 80%." Ari answered and informed them at the same time. "He must have transferred to another dimension and because of his power's instability the connection was instantly cut off."
Ignius shook his head. "Why would we even worry about that, let the master do whatever he wants and let's just wait for him to come back." There was really no reason for them to be so worried. Besides, he preferred the ruthless master.
Mr. C looked at the dragon and after a while he finally sighed. "Then keep us updated on the master's level. We will wait for him to return."
Ari agreed and she did not fail to tell them what was happening. The people who were always around the master were gathered in the living room and were waiting for him. Nahar was calmly flipping through the pages of a book that the master gave him. Ignius was doing nothing while Nina was busy minding her nails.
"All of you are calm, how wonderful." Mr. C exclaimed while looking at them. He sighed and instead of sitting down, he went to the kitchen.
"Mr. C is so uptight even for an AI." Nina spoke without sparing a glance at the others. She had noticed that the butler's attitude was completely different.
"He is becoming more and more like a human, you mean?" Ignius answered as he continued to stare at the ceiling. "Isn't that good though?"
"I'm just afraid that he might become a nagger too. I hope that the master won't hate him when he comes back." Nina stopped painting her nails and looked at the people around her.
While they were talking about the changes in Mr. C, the master slowly turned the darkness dimension into something more terrifying. In just a few minutes, the master already sent attacks that could destroy anything it passes through. Their surroundings were also jagged with rocks. The wind he summoned was raging. The elements were going haywire because the master was not in a good mood because of a certain memory.
