Chapter 65 Go forth! It’s decided then! Elf Ryu!
Although that sword strike had hacked Valetta to a terrible state, Noah was not satisfied.
With little to show for his life, he had only his swordsmanship, culinary skills, and looks to be confident about.
That last strike, though it was thrown on a whim, had the perfect angle, speed, and power to have decapitated Valetta; how did it go astray?
Sensing something amiss, Noah had no time to ponder; with a burst of dust from his feet, he swung his blade once more towards the rolling Valetta.
Missed the neck just now, so this time I’ll cut her whole being in 2!
If it lacks precision, I’ll compensate with coverage!
But this time, the blade shattered the rock beneath Valetta, sending sands and stones flying like missiles, obliterating her with a mix of blood and flesh, yet she narrowly evaded the lethal blow by a hair’s breadth.
The situation was a reversal like the one from a month ago, with Noah launching a series of offensive arts, each one barely missed by Valetta.
The one constant was that the blood-soaked individual was still Valetta.
After 3 more slashes in the blink of an eye, still unable to end Valetta’s life, Noah finally halted, scanning his body for anomalies.
Valetta, with a nearly severed right hand and a gushing leg wound, managed to stand up using her broken sword as a crutch.
Pulling out a healing potion, Valetta tilted her head back to down half of it, then sprinkled the rest on her body, all within a matter of seconds.
After finishing one bottle, Valetta pulled out another, drinking the potion as if a person dying of thirst guzzles down a fresh spring.
“Sure enough, getting close to this monster is a recipe for disaster!”
With her snarling face dirtied by dust and blood, Valetta could only manage to open one eye, still twisting her grin with malice.
“But Noah, if you can’t kill me, then you’ll just have to wait for death to come slowly!”
Hearing Valetta’s voice, Noah ceased his examination of his body.
There was no need to look further; it was plain as day that the purple-red magic circle beneath him was to blame.
“Is this magic barrier the culprit?”
I need time to recover, and magic requires time to take effect!
Though villains in heroic epics often die from talking too much, Valetta judged that stalling would be more beneficial to her at this point.
“That’s right! This is my Magic…… ‘Kill Steal’! Even though it’s a super long-winded Magic, I can’t leave this Barrier, and it eats up a ton of Spirit power, but its effect is ‘Ability Down’. Anyone who invades this Barrier without my permission will have their Ability Value lowered every time they act…… infinitely stacked!”
It seems like she’s finally seeing her prey caught in the net, either with the joy of the hunt or the rage of being trampled, Valetta roared her Magic Ability.
“You’re finished! What did you think you were doing running around and swinging your sword like an idiot!”
Valetta’s right.
Noah estimates that since Valetta activated her Magic Circle, his Ability Value, boosted by his Falna, has dropped by almost one-tenth.
If he wanted to keep fighting Valetta, the rate of his Ability’s decrease would speed up even more.
But Noah instantly realized that this Barrier Magic posed no threat to him.
Even if he couldn’t kill Valetta, he could always run away, right?
The distance was just a matter of an instant.
Thankfully, he escaped.
Otherwise…… the moment this thought crossed his mind, Noah felt a sudden sense of dread.
The next second……
“BOOM!!”
Accompanied by an explosion even more terrifying than when the Magic Swords had gone haywire, a figure was sent flying into the sky and then crashed to the ground.
That was Ryu, who should have escaped dozens of seconds ago, her cloak now covered in flames, even her golden hair singed.
Especially, the direction she landed, was right in the middle of the purple-red Magic Circle!
“Noah! They have more ambushes in the forest! Lots of suicide soldiers!”
Before Ryu could even shout, Noah deactivated the Electric Arc surrounding him and rushed towards her.
This Blessing Magic was devastating for anyone who needed to charge into enemy lines, but those Electric Arcs would also destroy everything around them, friend or foe.
But even faster than him was Valetta’s loud command.
“Noah! Watch how I play with you! Guys, get your weapons ready!!”
In an instant, several times more Evilus Faction members emerged from everywhere.
At the same time, the Magic Circle under Noah’s feet shines, and the purple-red light turns into countless invisible spider silks to tie him and Liu.
When Noah, ignoring the strange sensation in his body, scooped up Ryu and tried to dash out, 3 or 4 members of the Evilus Faction blocked his path, and then…
“BOOM!!”
A sky-high blaze and the shockwave of the explosion shook the ground, forcefully pushing Noah back into the Magic Barrier.
“Damn, that’s ruthless!”
Seeing more members of the Evilus Faction closing in, Noah could only retreat repeatedly.
That massive explosion, even if he could handle it, the Elf in his arms definitely couldn’t!
The problem was being surrounded; Noah’s room to maneuver was shrinking rapidly.
Especially the speed at which the Evilus Faction members self-destructed to stop him, their determination was so fierce that it left Noah speechless.
It was as if they saw him heading in that direction and without hesitation, they would self-destruct, making it too late for Noah to rush past.
To protect the Elf and the 3 children in his arms, he could only retreat once more.
Originally, with the self-destruct speed of the Evilus Faction, Noah wouldn’t even need to draw his sword; they would all be wiped out.
But Noah could feel that his Ability Value was nearly depleted by Valetta’s Magic, almost back to the level he was at before gaining Falna.
The Elf in his arms was even worse off, almost reduced to a regular Elf.
Noah initially only needed to carry her, but now he had to hold her tightly.
No more hesitation!
No matter what, he could fight his way out, but he might not be able to protect these little ones in his arms!
“Elf! Use that move from earlier!”
That move from earlier?
Which one?
Ryu looked up in confusion, but upon seeing Noah’s gaze, she understood.
Hey, but can I really do it?
Ignoring Ryu’s terrified expression, Noah roared loudly, grabbing the Elf by the nape and throwing her into the air!
“Go! It’s all on you now!”
Noah Cipher!
I hate you!!
The height she usually didn’t care about, at this moment, due to the loss of her Ability Value and being passively thrown into the air, Ryu felt a surge of fear.
But upon seeing Valetta, who was also looking up in shock, Ryu closed her eyes like a broken pot and screamed at the top of her lungs.
“Winds of Light!!”
Feeling the Mana rippling in the air, Valetta’s expression changed dramatically.
What’s going on?
This Elf’s area-of-effect magic attack was supposed to require a long chant, right?
Why did it turn into an instant cast!
But the situation didn’t allow Valetta to think too much.
She had seen the ‘Gale’ magic attack before and absolutely did not believe she could take it head-on!
Dodge!
Without hesitation, Valetta took a huge leap backward, and that’s when she saw 3 small figures reappear in the sky… those little brats!
Doesn’t this mean that…
In Valetta’s constricted pupils, countless lightning bolts were reflected, like a maelstrom of electrical discharges.
“You’re going down, dead or alive!!” BOOM!
A slash, no, it was more like a massive shockwave generated by releasing her entire body’s Mana.
By sacrificing efficiency and precision, she traded it for an enormous range and devastating killing power, a true Desperate Strike!
Everything was over; even Absolute, still suspended in mid-air, couldn’t dodge this crushing blow.
Realizing this, Valetta’s face contorted in a twisted grimace as she flung the remnants of her broken mystic sword at Absolute, who was still hovering in the air.
Even if I die, you won’t get off scot-free!
As this thought flashed through her mind, Valetta was engulfed by a torrent of lightning bolts and electrical discharges, like a tempest of thunder and lightning, ZZZT!
Meanwhile, the mystic sword also tore through Absolute’s combat attire, stabbing deep into his abdomen, a critical hit, THUD!
