A bit of blood spluttered as the essence of destruction bypassed the Wyvern\'s SS rank durability and dealt True damage, but this served to enrage him as he released a burst of demonic energy that distorted the air, causing the energy blasts to fly off trajectory.

The jagged icicle broke under the pressure of the dense energy and the everlasting chains shattered into pieces of light.

Mesarthim\'s prismatic flames persisted a bit, but even they were eventually quelled by Craitid.

The Wyvern\'s maw opened and energy condensed within, preparing to release another breath attack by the talons of the Silverwing transformed Kayla swooped in from above, grasping onto his neck and slamming its head onto the ground.

The coalescing energy dissipated and Evan jumped onto Kayla\'s back immediately.

She then took to the skies and narrowly avoided the gigantic earthen arm construct that emerged from the ground and tried to grab her.

What followed was a supersonic battle of magic as countless flame, earthen and ice projectiles and beams tore through the air, tier 3 spells activating multiple times and turning the area around them into a wasteland.

Evan and Kayla were knocked to the ground multiple times by the Demonic Wyvern, each successful attack on them swiping huge chunks of their vitality.

The young hero\'s plethora of strength-boosting artifacts all shattered both from overuse and from the fact that he sacrificed some of them to reduce the amount of damage he received.

From afar, the S and SS rank adventurers of the nearby cities all watched with bated breaths as this battle—or rather, the beating was not something they could interfere with.

As for who was being beaten up, it was naturally the giant golden bird and its human rider who were losing miserably against the Demonic Wyvern.

While Evan was dancing on the edge with Kayla, Eliza, Kuro and Milena were also in their own life-and-death battle against the Epic Level Fake Hero.

"Milena, Kuro.

Buy me a few seconds."

Such were the first words Eliza uttered right after she saw the Fake hero get caught up in Evan\'s initial Glacial Annihilation.

The two spirits roused their energies in response, before shooting forward with Sonic Speed towards the injured Fake Hero.

[Dark Prison.

Shadow Claw.

Brightest Shadow.]

Kuro activated two of his skills along with his unique skill at the same time, using darkness to generate a prison to hold the Fake hero while his shadow came alive and grabbed onto him.

A three-pronged slash of black light sliced through the air but the Fake Hero released a burst of energy to break the binds before unsheathing his sword and striking down the aura-based attack.

What followed next was a ball of black light that manifested right in front of his face, and before he could even think about moving back, it exploded.

**BOOOM!!

The point-blank explosion sent him flying through the air but he flipped his body and regained his balance, revealing his face that only had a few scratches before charging forward once more.

His sword reached Kuro faster than sound, but it only managed to slice off a few hairs off the body of the cat that had already delved back into his own shadow.

[Aquafire: Blazing Tide!]

Milena took action, amplifying her pale blue flames and merging them with her natural water-generation abilities, slamming the combination onto the ground and unleashing a surge of molten waves.

[Oxyhydrogen Explosion!]

The two constituents of the very air breathed by all living beings concentrated at a single point, before exploding upon contact with the flames of the surging molten waves.

**BOOM!! BOOOMM!!! BOOOOOMM!!!

A symphony of explosions rang out in all directions, giving the Fake Hero a hard time as he could not predict where the next explosion was going to come from.

While this was happening, Eliza was using up her skill charges to place charged healing on Evan.

She then spun her staff spear on the ground and began activating her unique skill.

"Child of Life."

Life energy surged forth from the depths of her being, enough to create a small crater around her from the pressure of the dense energy.

The Fake hero who still had the leeway to pay attention to her, noticed this and shot towards the battle priestess, fearlessly enduring the explosive forces of the oxyhydrogen blasts that assaulted his body.

Yet, as he approached, dark tendrils emerged from the very ground, ensnaring him tightly and dragging him down into the seething molten waves below.

Seizing the opportunity, Kuro emerged from the man\'s shadow and ran up his body, thrusting a sphere of black light through a gap in his armour.

He then dematerialized his physical body right after, just in time to avoid the Fake Hero\'s demonic energy-coated palm that tried to grab his tail.

The Cat hurriedly retreated back into the shadows, while Milena summoned a swirling vortex of searing flames intermingled with water, surrounding and engulfing the fake hero in a maelstrom of scorching heat and drowning inundation.

It was at this critical moment that the dormant ball of black light, previously inserted into the crevice of his armour by Kuro, detonated with explosive might.

The resounding blast tore asunder his black-themed armour from within, eliciting a gush of blood from the Fake hero\'s lips, leaving him wounded and reeling in agony.

In the short few seconds it took all these to happen, Eliza had already garnered the life energy she needed, her lips parting as she activated her newly acquired skill.

"Ethereal Equilibrium: Support Mode."

A surge of ether burst forth from her being, before blanketing around her in a green cloak of energy that obscured her body from view.

This lasted for not more than five seconds, with the coat of ether fading away into fragments of light, revealing the Battle Priestess\'s \'Support Mode\'.

The battle priestess\' entire being radiated a serene and comforting presence that would put all those she considered \'allies\' nearby at ease.

Taking a colour scheme from what she was originally wearing, she was now adorned in a graceful floor-length grey robe crafted from a delicate, lightweight fabric that seems to move with a life of its own. Silver embroidery adorns the edges, depicting intricate patterns of intertwining vines.

A silver sash wrapped around her waist, adorned with golden symbols that shimmered with a gentle radiance.

Floating in front of her was an artifact that looked just like a large orb, one about twenty centimetres in diameter. It had a ring made of bronze around it with two pieces of a cloth-like material tied to the two edges of the ring.

This was naturally the Support Artifact that Evan had given her more than a year ago; the Radiant Codex.

Channelling her ether through it, Eliza activated her support magic skill and spells, layering multiple buffs on Evan, Kayla, Kuro and Milena, geared towards increasing their defensive and healing abilities, as well as enhancing their survivability.

This was when she placed the two charges of healing on Evan that would later mend his broken bones after being sent flying through the air.

She then layered a few buffs on herself, before deciding to switch modes.

"Combat Mode."

**BOOM!!!

A violent wave of energy surged forth from her body, wrapping around her and transforming her appearance once more.

When she came into view again, Eliza\'s blonde hair was now pulled back into a practical yet stylish braided ponytail, allowing for unhindered movements while her sapphire eyes blazed with an ethereal glint of power.

Dressed in a sleek ensemble of black and grey, she wore a plain black turtleneck that was very similar to what she had before, but with the addition of intricate silver patterns tracing across the fabric\'s sleeves, depicting sacred symbols and glyphs.

Completing her combat attire, she donned a pair of charcoal grey shorts atop black leggings and a similar-coloured pair of leather combat boots. Lastly, she had black partial armour covering crucial points on her body like her joints.

Emblazoned on her chest was a simple silver cross-shaped insignia.

In her hands was her trusty spear-tipped staff, the Memoria, coated with a visibly thick layer of ether.

At her back, five gleaming short spears hovered in symmetrical formation, defying gravity with ethereal force.

Each one was an exact copy of the spear tip of her Memoria when she detached it into two parts.

The same instant that her transformation was complete, Eliza kicked off the ground and blitzed forward as a streak of dark green light, appearing right beside the Fake Hero who was reeling in pain from Kuro\'s dark light explosion and attacking without hesitation.

Her spear, coated in dense ether slashed down from above, releasing a wave of projected energy that carved the ground it passed through, threatening to slice the Fake Hero in two.

However, the Epic-level existence only rose his sword and released a casual slash of demonic energy that collided with her cutting wave mid-way, with the two energy projectiles exploding and nullifying themselves.
