BXBX NOVEL Chapter 508 Against The First Division Squad III
As if she expected it, Eliza conjured a barrier on her side a mere moment before that person\'s head and upper torso exploded, shielding herself from the blood and brain matter that splashed about.
The Fake hero, on the other hand, wasn\'t so lucky.
Skull fragments and pieces of flesh splashed on his face, with some of them entering his mouth through his lips that were parted to call out a spell\'s name.
"Phtfu!!"
He hurriedly tried to spit it out but that short moment he took gave Eliza the opening required to deliver three high-speed thrusts straight to his leg, succeeding in stabbing him two out of three times.
Each stab had the energy of a skill charge inside it and she instantly activated the \'Aspects\' of Anti Regeneration and Unhealing.
While the Fake hero\'s regenerative abilities were sealed, Unhealing had no effect as he had not suffered any injuries within the event radius of Eliza\'s skill.
\'If you don\'t have one, then I\'d give you one.\'
With that thought, Eliza activated flower cannon, releasing a supercharged beam of energy that slammed into the fake hero from the side and sent them flying through the trees.
Even so, Eliza had a surprised expression on her face as her kinetic vision allowed her to see that the Fake hero actually succeeded in blocking her flower cannon\'s beam at the last moment.
"Wow…I\'m actually impressed."
She muttered those words as she spun around and released another cutting wave that carved through the ground and it split the body of one of the remaining master levels in two, going on to crash into the barrier set up by one of the demons behind him.
A dozen other demons and their contractors unleashed combinations of fire, earth, wind and darkness demonic magic at her with the full intention to blast them to pieces.
"Sand Cloud Whirlwind."
"Grand Lance."
"Hail of Flames!"
"Nether Typhoon."
"Spear of Retribution."
"Super Cyclone."
"Malefice!"
"Deathmarch Dance!"
"Wind Blades Shower."
"Flame Lance Barrage!"
Just before the array of spells hit her, her shadow expanded and tendrils of darkness sprung up from within, pulling her into it at the last second.
**KAABOOOOMMMMM!!!!!!
A deafening explosion erupted, its thunderous roar reverberating through the air with an earth-shattering force.
The shockwaves rippled outward, causing the very ground to tremble as the explosive burst of energy from the spells colliding with the ground consumed the surroundings in a blinding flash, engulfing the landscape in an expanding wave of devastation that stretched over for close to five dozen kilometres.
The investigation force from Shelde that was returning after seeing Evan\'s airborne battle instantly retreated after seeing this explosion and getting knocked back by the shockwaves.
They returned to the city to report what they had seen and called for more powerful beings to be summoned to check out whatever was happening.
However, they all had a feeling, that by the time whatever was happening concluded, the giant bear woods and part of the mountains behind it might not exist anymore.
Meanwhile, the Demonic hand members and demons who launched this great combination attack against Eliza all had frowns on their faces as they could tell their attack had missed.
They all saw the shadows that wrapped around her body and pulled her toward the ground at the last moment.
This enraged them as even though they weren\'t expecting to be able to kill her with just that due to her high durability, they expected that she would at least be incapacitated temporarily.
But things didn\'t go as planned and they all wasted their magic and demonic energy for nothing.
Even so, the threat of Evan and his party was on the highest level in their heads, so they didn\'t just stand there and stare at the gaping hole in the ground but instead tried to find out where he had teleported to.
This wasn\'t too hard as Kuro\'s teleportation wasn\'t fast enough to escape the explosion, so he had to keep Eliza in the \'shadows\', but even that proved to be troublesome as everything that could cast a shadow within the nearest 20? Maybe 30 kilometres had been turned to ashes.
As such, the two had re-emerged in the middle of the explosion and had weathered it with Eliza\'s multi-layered barriers.
This was far easier, considering they were not at the centre where all the spells had collided but was still dangerous nonetheless.
Eliza\' had consumed a great amount of energy to generate the required barriers and after the explosion had died down, she had to use her water magic to douse the sea of flames in their immediate surroundings, creating a small clearing where the blazing inferno of the explosion did not reach.
The Demonic Hand members would have to be exceptionally blind not to notice her!
However, before they could take any action-
[You.]
Evan\'s cold voice amplified by magic rang out across the area, and accompanying it was an overwhelming pressure that descended upon the area.
The twelve of them all felt like an invisible force was pressing down on their very existences, their very souls crying out in alarm as the amalgamation of power that made their breaths feel constricted, suffocated them with its intensity.
[Fucking]
Each one of Evan\'s words intensified the pressure bearing down on them, and a suffocating sense of dread gripped their souls.
[Bastards.]
The pressure from Evan\'s intimidation was far greater than what he did to Griselda a few hours ago; but that was only natural, as Evan had grown stronger since then; plus, Blessing of Destruction was currently active, meaning Evan was at 300% power!
Slowly raising her head to look up, one of the lower-middle rank demons with a level in the 320s was met with the sight of the young teenager hero\'s figure, standing atop an invisible platform of energy, seemingly suspended in the sky with his piercing grey eyes glaring at them from above.
In his right hand, he wielded a reddish gold ice sword, a deceptively simple yet extraordinary weapon emanating a hazy aura of frost as it reflected light with an otherworldly glow.
However, it was the severed head held by its silver hair dangling from his left hand that drew her attention. The fake hero\'s head, with fresh red blood still dripping from the severed neck, had an expression of anguish etched on his face, mirroring the soul-rending pain inflicted upon him by the essence of destruction.
From his elevated vantage point, the young hero cast his cold gaze upon the demonic hand members, as if he viewed the dozen as lesser life forms.
His intimidation aura infused with the crimson-red essence of destruction made the air around him grow heavy.
Within their perception, hallucinations of their impending demise took hold, while their souls cried out in alarm, sensing the imminent threat of the deadly essence of destruction.
Rainbow-coloured flames engulfed the severed head in his hand, turning it to ashes instantly and replacing it was the magic stone of the Poison Cephrodite they had killed earlier.
The energy within it began flowing into his body and he activated his Harbinger of Ice skill, summoning an icy elemental surge of power.
The searing sea of flames that consumed the landscape around them stood no chance against the torrential wave of crystalline ice that surged forth with unstoppable force, succumbing to its icy embrace.
Right before their very eyes, Evan used the Cephrodite\'s energy stone to transform the fiery inferno into a frozen tableau within mere seconds, casting a layer of icy energy that blanketed the bodies of all their assailants on the ground.
\'It seems I cannot use the real \'Frozen Domain\', huh?\'
The piece of knowledge that was \'accidentally\' downloaded into his brain when Evan was unconscious after defeating Silverwing allowed him to attempt to enact this ability of the Series Skill he had mimicked.
If Evan possessed mastery over spatial laws and could infuse them into this, he would have been able to use the real \'Frozen Domain\', its true nature being a Bounded Field.
Bounded Fields were powerful topographic type techniques that required the user to knit a network of energy and spread it over a base area to create mystic boundary lines, separating the inside from the outside.
Naturally, it created an environment favourable for the caster and unfavourable for opponents caught within.
Sadly, Evan\'s spatial Attunements were at the lowest possible levels, leaving him incapable of enacting the real Frozen Domain.
