Chapter 108 - Candles Part 2

"Joan we are surrounded," Isaias said to him.

"I know, should I go all out?" Joan asked.

"If your all is enough," Isaias replied to him.

Joan then nodded. He felt that these enemies were worthy of being called foes. Something strong enough to deal with. But Joan felt that their numbers were still not yet measured. Making him have a slight panic while imagining what the unknown was.

Joan then immediately used his Mage job class and used his skill [Solar flare]. Aimed at the sky, he released the spell.

Boom!

At the explosion of his skill, many red creatures that flooded the hills were seen by Joan. They were vast and their numbers were hundreds. Joan didn't know their exact numbers but he knew they were three hundred strong warriors. Armed with numerous variety of weapons on their hands. They have four hands as Isaias has spoken and it will be a tad hard to eradicate them.

Joan knew that it will be a hard battle so he summoned all his summons on his arsenal. Not thinking twice about going all out as these enemies were once the ones that closely eradicated the human kingdom. Their numbers were also another thing, he can duel one or two with his current stats but forget about hundreds. Also not just hundreds but three hundred strong. The survival rate was on the lowest as Joan has thought about it.

[Summon bear]

A bear appeared with Spirit armour covering its body. Roaring after it was summoned

[Summon vine]

Vines spewing poison, ice, and, fire elements were summoned. Ready to attack anytime soon.

[Skeleton]

Skeletons appeared with different classes. Are were ready to kill for their master.

[Shadow clones]

Four shadow clones appeared and they were armed and ready. Crouching while daggers on their hands.

[Spirit and soul duplicate]

Joan duplicate appeared and he was ready for an all-out war.

[Beast call]

Wolves and crows appeared, seemingly excited to bit off enemies and peck their eyes.

Joan duplicate was one of them and he can't help but be happy when he was summoned. But his happiness then faded, he felt weak for a reason.

"You used it?" Joan's duplicate asked.

"Yes," Joan replied.

"Ah, you cheeky brat! Did you use it prematurely? You know that we will face the Demon Lords now right?" He said while pinching his cheeks.

"Ah, that is why this is a great opportunity to get stronger. Look at the numbers of the enemies, it will be a feast," Joan said to him. Pointing at them.

"Okay, let's get stronger!" Joan duplicate shouted.

It was then, the enemies rushed towards them. Their numbers made rumblings to the ground and Joan inhaled great amounts of air.

"Hold your positions! Attack all enemies!" Joan shouted.

Isaias was surrounded by several Skeletons. He was also bothered about why there were so many of them, gathered here in one place. To his surprise, they were also armed to the teeth. It didn't have to be a mere coincidence that they were here just to attack them. It was then, Isaias concluded.

"They are here to attack the Kingdom!" Isaias shouted.

"After a thousand years, they will rise again and wreak havoc on all parts of our lands. With the rise of the Demon Lords, they thought that it was once again time for their rise!" Isaias said to Joan.

The two was then felt excited. Or so they thought at the moment.

"Let us die without regrets! Till death do us part!" Joan shouted.

Isaias and Joan's duplicate stared at him.

"Well, we will part when I die here, right?" Joan said to the two.

It was then, Joan duplicate also unleashed his minions. Bearing the strength of their original, it will be a battle to look into. Joan then felt that it was time to unleash his all. Having made it into Sky realm the second stage, he will have more spells he can use.

"The time has come, Joan duplicate. You should handle the front lines and I will do the support," Joan commanded.

"Understood," Joan duplicate replied.

It was then, Joan used his job class Mage. Levitating on the sky and he saw the multitudes of enemies thereof. Joan duplicate then used his Holy Knight job class. It was the job class that was his favourite. Being the job class that was best used against monsters and demons alike.

[Conjure holy armour]

He was covered in a shining golden armour that radiates a holy aura. Joan duplicate was then covered with armour from head to toe.

[Conjure holy armour]–an armour that has healing properties. Made of the holy element that was harmful to the monsters and demons. The defence will be boosted with the holy element affinity. Maintained by mana and repairs with mana.

[Conjure holy sword]

A sword was seen on Joan duplicate's hands. It was shining with a golden glow.

[Conjure holy shield]

A shield was made on his arms. Making a glow that shines in the dark. It was in a form of a kite shield and it has runes that ornamented it.

[Judgement zone]

Joan duplicate was surrounded by golden light. He glows like a spotlight in the dark. Its effects have a ten-meter radius.

[Judgement zone]–all creatures of darkness will be repelled from the light. The more the enemies will approach, the more they will be repelled and the more damage they will suffer. It has Holy burning damage that was harmful to demons and monsters and it increases the more the enemies gets closer.

Joan then saw Joan duplicate march towards the enemy lines. Without a hint of hesitation on his face, he marched together with his minions. Joan's troops were guarding Isaias and he was up in the sky to support and deal damage as long as he can.
