Custom Spell: Barrier
Instantly, the energy gathered and formed many layers of barrier around Desmond and Alice. However, as soon as the barriers completely formed, the magic circles above started spitting out many and various elemental attacks.
*crash* *crash*
Under the consecutive attacks from the mages, Desmond calmly analyzed the situation.
"Fifteen 1st class wizard/witch and the rest is 2nd class master Wizard/Witch. Leaving Weston already died, except for the Vesta and Greyson, killing them is not hard," he muttered.
When those mages used their elemental attacks on him, his barriers were strong enough to keep them busy, but that was not the case when those Master Witch or Wizard came to action.
The gap between him and the 1st class wizard was not big. Only those Master Witch / Wizards had a different and stronger energy density, which made their attacks enchanted to become more powerful and spent less energy.
"But, from the look, they cannot act when these 1st class mages are attacking me. If not, why are they just watching with their face look like they want to jump and tear me?"
At the same time, those 2nd class mages did not dare to attack him; even Vesta and other melee attackers stayed so far from him. Desmond then shifted his gaze to the notification that kept prompting on the corner bottom of his view.
[Successfully emerging the experiment bloodline with the host body!]
[The blood purity is 99% that can be considered close to the real dragon blood!]
[A strange memory is attempting to enter the host mind.]
[Eliminate Y/N ?]
"No, let it in," As soon Desmond agreed, he could feel a headache for a moment before the feeling is disappeared when the new emerged memory inserted into his mind.
The memory began playing like a video, showing a person covered with shadow standing and facing the black dragon he saw back then. The black dragon then roared at the person, the roar wiping out the dead bodies around the person and pushing him back several meters.
Although the person was covered in shadow, from Desmond perspective, he could feel the remaining thin energy with his muscle screaming in agony, letting out blood that continuous dripped.
The person then muttered some language that Desmond didn't know, but he noticed the black dragon actually flinched upon his words.
Suddenly, the black dragon from afar was like a magnet being sucked into the person body. The black dragon huge body actually sucked into his shadow. The person roared, summoning back the dragon with shadow form, and it roared to the entire sky.
At the same time, a burst of black flame came out from the shadow of the dragon mouth, engulfing and filling the sky with the hot black fire.
The strange playback suddenly came to a stop as Desmond immediately gained a piece of knowledge about the skill the person used and immediately understood how to use it.
[System detecting a new skill from host brain!]
[A new category is created based on the skill origin and the skill structure!]
['Hellfire Judgment' has been added into the Dragonslayer spell category!]
"A dragon slayer skill, but also a spell at the same time, huh," Desmond muttered. Although he was suspicious of the origin of those memories, the situation forced him to use that.
"I can only defeat them my skill, but not for killing," Desmond once again felt his training, the effort he put on it to increase his strength was now sufficient. If not for the Vesta and Greyson presence, he has already slain those mages.
In front of the power beyond 4th class swordsman, a mage was a fat lamb in his eyes. But when it comes to 4th class swordsman using a Powerboost skill, he will lose his advantage, and Vesta will see this chance to strike him at the back.
The enhancement and those swordsman skills could not be underestimated. The prove is himself. By relying on those skills, he could slay the respectable Grandmaster Weston.
His power had not yet reached a one-man army. He felt powerless upon battling continuously with many mages and swordsmen at the same time. The class difference also becomes his obstacle; if all the mage power was equal, Desmond might dominate the human race with his strength.
*crack*
Suddenly, the barrier began cracking; when Desmond glanced, he found those Master Mages already in action. At the same time, he could feel his body weaken while his vision slowly became a bit blurry.
He was frowned and didn't realize he wasting too much time after killing Weston and blocking Greyson attack.
"Tch! Didn't expect this body cannot bear the pressure anymore," Hugging his sister and placing her body on his back, Desmond pigging back Alice and then activated his last spell.
"Custom Spell: Light Distortion" under the blinding and destruction attacks, no one realized Desmond and Alice bodies were slowly surrounded by the light and then blended with the surrounding.
At the same time, his barriers also had reached the maximum as loud cracking sounds were heard when one of the flame elemental spears stabbed to the ground where Desmond's original position was.
"WHAT!" The people exclaimed in surprise when they saw Desmond and his sister were gone. All of them were experts here, but no one noticed how they could expect under their noses.
"Search him! Respectable Mages, please use your spell to trace them!" Greyson was shouting busily. Unlike the others, he seemed to be the person who lost when Weston died under his eyes.
With his wife as a Master Witch, he knew all of their energy seemed depleted because of continuous consumption attacks from before, but he still looked at them with expectation.
"Husband..." Violet, Greyson's wife, spoke with a regrettable expression. She knew why her husband was so adamant about killing Desmond.
However, looking at the other master mage's expression, it was obvious that no one could use a higher rank spell that required massive energy to cast. She could only bite her lower lip and glanced at Desmond original position.
....
On the other hand, Desmond was seen jumping around the roof while carrying Alice on his back. The moment he landed, the roof did not break as they imagined, instead only leaving a soft and gentle tap as if it was a cat instead human stepped it.
Helmfirth was a big city and the first human city, basically surrounded by tall walls that separated each district.
The moment Desmond left using a portal, the fresh air and warm light from the sun came intact with his body. He could be considered lucky because the portal seemed not installed by anything troublesome that hindered his movement.
"I need to check Laura and the other too," Using the map from the corner of his view, Desmond headed to the Guild District, where most of the blue dots kept moving around.
With the overpower skill already ended, the negative sides have been removed. No strange voice could disturb his mind while he could keep his energy. With his original stat equal to a 3rd class swordsman, he easily jumped the 10m walls.
The soldiers that were on patrols did not feel anything. They only glanced in Desmond direction for a moment before continuing to observe the other area.
"That close," Looking at the indifferent face of those soldiers, Desmond continued running on the walls and then jumped off as he landed on the Guild District.
*thumb* The moment he landed, a crash could be heard from the surrounding. Desmond was surprised and noticed it was Laura with her torn clothes was sent flying and hit the wall while Annie was seen with her daggers blocking the attacks from those soldiers.
"Hehe, we got a nice beauty in here," The soldiers shamelessly scanned Annie and Laura hot bodies while the rest just laughed at his words.
"Although they were criminals, no one knows what happened to them before we put them in prison," said the soldier whose sole licked his lower lips.
Annie stared coldly at them, some part of her body already bleeding due to their attacks. Her clothes were the same as Laura, exposing her cleavage and smooth skin.
She peeked behind to see Laura condition did not looks good. Her face paled due to energy consumption. From the look, she barely kept her conscious with her legs tremble.
