Chapter 831 Victory
Unbeknown to himself, the swordmaster subconsciously fears Jayna's fire and prefers to avoid it. This is something like an aversion to dangerous things. This subtle action drastically affects the swordmaster's movement and pattern.
However, he also couldn't do anything about it. It is hard to fight against subconscious instinct suddenly unless they have perfect body control like Angus. Even for Angus himself, he couldn't 100% fight his body instinct. As a result, the swordmaster could only accept his fate.
Jayna finds this trick after experiencing Angus' intense malicious aura last time. She knows that by utilizing her opponent's fear, she could create many openings for a fatal blow.
Jayna is not stupid and reckless. The swordmaster expert is far too strong and experienced compared to them. His experience in close combat and sword skill is so immense that they could be cut into pieces if they relaxed their vigilance once.
If they fight head-on, it will only instantly lead them to their demise. Therefore, Jayna could only use this psychological trick to fight him.
Now, the swordmaster will not dare to attack recklessly and give more openings for the two girls to attack. Moreover, Jayna also learns from Angus that this swordsman may be strong in close combat and sword skill.
But, it is also stubborn and prideful. He will choose to die rather than surrender or use a skill other than his sword.
This mindset is good as it will create a powerful extreme swordmaster in a short period. However, until the practitioner reaches the true pinnacle height, his combat prowess will be strictly restrained, especially when he can't use a sword. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Unfortunately, the swordmaster's skill still does not reach the true pinnacle. At most, it is comparable to Angus' skill.
As a swordmaster expert who follows the extreme path, he must keep attacking through his sword to gain the upper hand. Yet, his hesitation and fear force him into this fallen state.
"Urgh… Sever.. Lightfang!!" muttered the swordmaster boldly.
The sword in his hand suddenly shone dimly before releasing an enormous strong sword slash energy. Facing such a powerful cutting attack, Brigida immediately jumped back while guarding herself with her halberd.
Her lightning attribute and honed body instinct give her the proper reaction to defend herself in a split second. Jayna turned her whole body into a fire phoenix and boldly charged forward.
Magically, the sword slash couldn't hurt the fire phoenix at all. It is as if cutting through fire without an entity.
Using this opportunity, Jayna hit the swordmaster directly with her fiery body [Phoenix Rush]. The swordmaster instantly became a charred corpse before Jayna's Phoenix body touched him. At the same time, the whole area turned into boiling red lava and magma sludge.
The whole fight with the swordmaster is very short despite the swordmaster being close to seventh-grade level. This is not because Jayna already reached such a level but because the swordmaster couldn't use most of his sword skill and was incompatible with Jayna.
Confirming the swordmaster into ash, Jayna flies back towards Alkin. She is still worried about the previous mysterious sound magician. Arriving back at the Alkin, she finds Angus and Lilith still shooting their projectile attack continuously.
"Mommy!! Look.. Look.. Anna can also sing. Anna is great~ Anna is cool~" sang the little naughty girl.
"Yes, Anna is a good singer." praised Jayna gently.
This whole time, Anna kept singing without stopping. No one is stopping her childish out-of-tune singing, especially after knowing Angus manages to break the previous control through it.
Because of the significant distance between Alkin and Maestro, only Angus, Lilith, and Destroyer, along with a few special magic cannons, could reach this powerful sound magician.
Angus and Lilith fire Maestro non-stop to prevent him from gaining an advantage. They didn't want to give Maestro time to put them under strong control like before.
On the other hand, Alkin also moved towards Maestro. They didn't plan to go into close combat but just close enough for others to reach their attacking range.
Although Maestro has powerful control magic, he is still alone. They believe they can beat him as long as they keep bombarding him within a certain distance. Moreover, they also can't just leave such a powerful sound magician.
They will never know when Maestro uses his powerful control magic to attack them again. Unlike Angus, who has monstrous body control and can always anticipate sneak attacks, the others can't just keep their vigilance all the time.
King Leon would even personally hunt down this mysterious sound magician if he were here. For their peace of mind, Angus and Viscount Waterhell agree to deal with this sound magician rather than escape.
Still, they will not recklessly approach Maestro and maintain their maximum range. Under the siege of Angus and Lilith, Maestro couldn't even catch a breath.
Both of their attacks are deadly and fast. A moment of carelessness will put him into a bad situation and give the wild enraged fire dragon an opportunity to attack.
Not to mention counterattack, Maestro couldn't even escape the area. A strong explosion occurred in his path whenever he tried to break through the situation and create a distance. Some of the fire explosions even reached the level of fourth- or third-grade spells.
Maestro knew he couldn't stay in this area since more fire elements were slowly accumulating. It was just time for Angus to detonate the whole area. Furthermore, he was also surprised at Angus' bottomless mana.
Judging by the continued spells Angus releases throughout the whole time, the mana consumption should already have reached the capacity of two or three full-fledged sixth-grade magicians.
If Maestro had not felt the unique pressure of seventh grade from Angus, he would have thought Angus was already a seventh-grade magician with all his ridiculous magical abilities.
"Silvia now!!" called Angus.
Suddenly, the tiny high elf Silvia appeared above Maestro and cast a complex magic circle full of ancient runes [Disaster Magic - Vulcan Doom]. *BOOOOOOOOM* A loud explosion engulfed Maestro and his surroundings.
Loud thunderous lighting and fire explosions could be heard even from Angus' location. Noticing the loss of Maestro's influence over the Fire Dragon, Angus took back control, let it release its fire breath, and set the whole area ablaze. *GROOOARR*
Combining two powerful spells completely turns the whole area into a volcanic wasteland.
"It seems we got him." said Angus while trying to sense the sound of the magician.
Silvia's [Vulcan Doom] is not an ordinary destructive spell but an ancient elemental elf with a nasty effect. It damages the target physically at large ranges and burns the mana/miasma inside one's body.
Unless someone reaches a seventh-grade level with impeccable mana/miasma regeneration, others will instantly be forced to enter a mana deficiency state. The downside of this spell is that it needs a lot of preparation and is relatively short-range compared to others.
Moreover, the user also needs to master fire, lightning, and earth elementals to learn these spells along with complex ancient elf language. Basically, it is one of those powerful ancient magic with high prerequisites to cast.
"Knights secure the area!! Careful of the fire in the area!!" ordered Viscount Waterhell.
Noticing no more movement from the sound magician, Viscount takes the lead to secure the area and ensure the Maestro is dead. As for the other bounty hunters they leave behind, they are confident Duchess Amberblaze and Duke Jacob can handle it.
*CLANG* *CLANG* *CLANG* After more than hundreds of blows, the vice Flash squad leader Adeline finally managed to break the metal rider Raka's hard armor. She didn't expect such a bounty hunter to be equipped with high-quality armor.
However, she is not relieved after breaking Raka's armor and immediately retreats to the distance. Behind the sturdy metal armor, she finds unique yellowish-spiky skin.
"Tch… I guess this is it. If I had known this would happen, I should never have taken this bounty in the first place," grumbled Raka in a more feminine voice.
"A woman?!" commented Adeline.
"It seems the assassination is also over. Well, it's time to go," said Raka, wearing her half-broken helmet.
"You think you could easily run from the Heart Kingdom." said Adeline coldly.
"Let's see…" said Raka as she released an enormous demonic mana.
"This mana… Demon race?!!" commented Adeline while rushing to the assailant.
*CRACK *CRACK *GRRTTT* *GROOOARRR* Suddenly, an enormous giant creature emerged from the ground. The giant creature had yellowish-spiky skin similar to Raka's. It wriggled briefly before returning its body to the ground, leaving a massive cave tunnel.
"Space Worm?!!" exclaimed Adeline.
"Alright, see you again human warrior." said Raka before following the space worm.
*BLINK* *BANG* Just as Raka jumped into the dark space tunnel, a powerful punch hit her body and launched her far into the distance. The same situation happens everywhere as the resisting bounty hunter suddenly gets beaten up.
"Make sure you restrained them properly." ordered King Leon coldly.
The Seventh-grade king and leader of the Heart Kingdom finally arrives at the scene. Using his unparalleled [Blink] skill and speed, he overwhelmed all the bounty hunters and controlled the whole situation at once.
