"Hmm?!"

Luke\'s pupils darted towards Evan\'s direction upon hearing his sudden shout, and in that second the man\'s brain computed why the boy could have possibly called out to him at that point.

\'He knows better than to interrupt me, but he still did: There must be a serious reason behind it.\'

His foot stomped on the floor as he broke his run, his blue-eyed darting forward again as he noticed a spell forming right in front of him.

He could tank the spell with his high durability and still go on to destroy the grimoire, but he decided to listen to Evan and instantly jump leap out of the way.

***BOOOOMMMMMM!!!!!!

The spell\'s brief detonation unleashed a mingling surge of fiery and electric energies, crackling and swirling in a radiant burst.

But it did not reach Luke as the Sword Saint was already out of the way.

[Why\'d you stop him, Master? He could have dealt with that easily.]

Kayla questioned as she also did not understand Evan\'s reason for suddenly calling out to Luke, voicing what the man himself had wanted to ask.

"World Magic: Spell Number 16: Disintegration."

Evan only gave that one line in reply, evoking confused reactions from the two, but the boy only pointed his hand towards the grimoire and continued.

"That grimoire is rigged with that spell, and the trigger is its Destruction."

"?!"

"If you had succeeded in destroying that book, something you\'re 150% capable of, that spell would have activated and this entire mountain along with everything on it—both living and non-living, would have been have been vaporized.

I bet only you and Valthor would have survived that…half-dead, of course."

Upon hearing Evan\'s words, a cascade of goosebumps materialized across Kayla\'s arms, a tactile response that seemed to amplify the chill racing down her spine.

If only she knew that Evan left out the part where everything within the next few miles of the mountain would have been vaporized along with it.

"World Magic is as dangerous as ever, huh?"

Luke spoke as he thrust his sword forward, creating a focused blast of condensed aura that shattered through all the King\'s barriers and nearly blasted his arm off if not for his timely evasion.

But his opponent had already calculated his trajectory and dashed towards there, delivering a twin strike straight towards his head.

Grimoire pages flapped and the King activated an offensive spell at point-blank range, triggering an explosion that knocked back both parties.

Seeing this, Kayla who was still rubbing her arms because of the goosebumps voiced out a question to Evan.

[Master, just how many World Magic Spells do you know?]

And the boy\'s reply left her dumbfounded.

"All of them."

[…]

While the spirit was gaping in shock, Evan shouted out to Luke once more, with information that the Sword Saint would have needed a lot earlier than this.

"Sir Luke, the Pseudo World Magic Rune barrier around this Hall doesn\'t only have the effect of damage absorption, there\'s something else."

"And is it something I should know?"

"Yeah. It seals off every energy fluctuation inside here. Meaning that the Sovereign Level Servant of the Beast king In this area would not detect you if you release your limiter."

The moment Luke heard Evan\'s words, the Sword Saint who was about to charge forward, stopped his movements entirely, turning towards the young hero with an incredulous expression on his face.

Two orbs of condensed volatile lightning and fire energy shot towards the immobile man, but he only rose his left palm and backhanded one to the side, making it explode in a random corner of the room.

He then caught the second one in his palm and squashed it, making the orb explode with the power of a 15-ton bomb.

Silence pervaded the air after the explosion, and the dust cleared to reveal the Sword Saint who was still staring at Evan with the same expression on his face.

"Why didn\'t you say that earlier, kid?!"

He calmly turned towards the King who was constructing another spell formation, taking a deep breath before saying.

"Release…limit."

**BOOMM!!

A burst of pure unattributed energy was released from his body, spreading out shockwaves that slammed into the walls of the Hall and triggered the damage absorption runes.

The man\'s aura rose to a new height, far higher than what he normally showed and for the first time since the battle began, an expression of surprise adorned the King\'s face.

Before the man could even complete the activation of the spell he was forming, Luke took a \'step\' forward.

**SWISH X7

Seven slashes of white light flashed in an instant, shattering the magic circle that had just formed, along with the multi-layered energy barriers around the King.

The Blade of Lost Saints was only stopped by the last defensive energy coat surrounding the King\'s skin, but even that had already been cracked by the sword.

It was then that the King\'s cognition caught up to the fact that Luke had just destroyed both his magic circle and five of his barriers, each of which had separate durabilities of their own that could tank Level 500 attacks without a scratch.

"Hmm? I guess keeping the limiter up for too long has its demerits. I\'ve gotten rusty. Then again, you do seem to be exceptionally skilled in barrier manipulation."

The Sword Saint casually spoke as he pulled back his blade, his nonchalant demeanour seemingly striking a chord within the King who instinctively understood the need to up his game.

\'Minor Teleportation.

Quintuple Casting:

Maximize Magic.

Elemental Damage Bonus-Positive.

Elemental Damage Breach-Positive.

Tri-Elemental Boost.

Resistance Negation.\'

The king reappeared ten metres in the air, grimoire pages flapping so fast they looked like a blur and multiple pages shining with the bright lights.

\'Stoneshatter.

Terraquake.

Zephyr\'s Fury.

Galeforce Bolt.

Torrential Surge.

Arctic Spear.

Frostbolt.

Glacial Shatter.\'

The battlemage conjured each spell and interweaved their elemental essences into a tempestuous surge, fusing them all together into a massive Elemental Tempest that surged at Luke.

Drawing a light breath, Luke infused the blade with a blend of his white aura and a trace of his unique skill\'s power.

As the Spell storm bore down on him, the Sword Saint held up his blade and swung it downwards, executing a singular slash.

The Blade\'s edge met the magic and time seemed to ripple. An iridescent arc sliced through the amalgamated magic, causing ephemeral trails as the energies were scattered in a dazzling explosion of brilliance.

Despite having his spell amalgamation easily destroyed, the King didn\'t even hesitate to unleash another once, his grimoire flapping rapidly and glowing with a deep blue light as a similarly coloured five-ringed magic circle began forming in front of him.

Noticing this, Luke kicked off the ground and blitzed forward with supersonic speed, his aura still engulfing his sword as he sliced the magic circle in half, destroying it midway.

Even so, the King didn\'t feel any backlash from this, something Luke attributed to his grimoire.

The king saw that Luke had destroyed his attempts at Tier 5 Magic and instantly generated another, however, this spell was only a Pseudo Tier 5 spell.

It didn\'t have the full power of a Tier 5 Spell, but it was definitely stronger than any Tier 4 Spell out there.

And the greatest benefit was the fact that its activation time which was shorter, allowed the spell circle to complete a second before Luke could destroy it.

\'Fire Magic: Phoenix Sovereign.\'

Incredible magic power coalesced in a mere moment, taking the form of a large bright red flaming bird with glowing blue eyes that glared at Luke as if it was alive.

The bird\'s emergence released a shockwave that knocked the man back and sent him crashing towards the ground.

Right after it shot forward and assail him, shattering through the sound barrier and reaching his falling form before he could even touch the ground.

With this spell bearing down on him, and the sound of the grimoire\'s pages flapping signifying more were incoming, Luke didn\'t hesitate to pull out one of the \'Big Guns\'.

A Unique Skill.

And one from a Series at that!

\'Ink of Time: Momentary Stasis.\'

The world around him turned monochrome for a split second and the area in space occupied by the Phoenix Sovereign was engulfed in a localized stasis field, freezing the spell in time.

\'Temporal Rewind + Acceleration.\'

Luke flipped around and landed on his feet, before kicking off into the air with accelerated speed whilst simultaneously rewinding the Pheonix back to the second before it emerged from the magic circle.

\'Aqua Arc.\'

His sword cut through the blazing magic circle, dispersing the fire elemental energy as water overcame flame and created a sizzling mist in its wake.

Spinning his body around, he switched out the elemental energy infused within his blade, along with the unique skill he had active and spoke.

"My turn."
