Book 2: Chapter 78: Bug killing

The clown was instantly stunned by Sae’s sudden blast of killing intent and terrifying magic power. Nevertheless, being a mighty 9th rank Great Magician with an abundance of combat experience, his reflexes kicked in faster than his mind could process the development of the situation.

The black shadows melted into a liquid, before rapidly forming a sphere-like defense that enveloped the entirety of the clown’s body. Right as it appeared, Sae’s attack had arrived.

Sae did not cast any magic. Instead, with a speed that defied logic, she appeared right in front of the clown. Forming a claw with her right hand, she ferociously thrust it towards the black ball.Diiscover new stories at nove/lbin(.)c/om

Spurt Sae’s claws did not do any substantial damage to the surface of the black ball. Her attack had only caused the black ball to sway and form ripples on its surface.

“Oh honored Pioneer, I feel there’s some kind of misunderstanding between us. If I’ve done anything to insult you, please do let me know so that I might rectify it. There’s no need for us to fight to the death, right?”

The clown’s voice that was tinged with respect rang out from the black ball. Nevertheless, the killing intent radiating from Sae continued to grow increasingly terrifying.

At this moment, a large blade approximately the size of Sae’s body had appeared within her hand from god knows where and she sent a flurry of chops towards the black ball. She did not use any magic spells at all, making her attacks seem like she was just trying to vent her anger.

“Don’t waste your strength, oh Pioneer. This lowly one had inherited this magic spell from an old senior, and it’s impossible for any blade or sword techniques to break through it.”

“Looks like you’re very confident in this magic spell of yours.”

“This lowly one isn’t confident in my own ability, but confident in that old senior of mine. That senior’s one of the most outstanding magicians within this entire continent, so the magic spell he had created naturally can’t be broken so easily.”

“So that’s the case. Looks like I really can’t use ordinary methods to deal with it.” Sae nodded her head. In the next instant, under the astonished gazes coming from us people, she pulled the short sword embedded in her abdomen straight out, before saying “Thee has’t the right to be arrogant for thee to maketh me useth my real self.”

As the sword was pulled out from her abdomen, extreme amounts of blood had already gushed out from the open wound. Not caring the slightest, Sae proceeded to give a light slice towards the black ball with the short sword. In the next instant, the seemingly impenetrable black ball was split apart like it was a piece of paper, revealing the shocked face of the clown.

“How...impossible...”

“There’s nothing impossible.” with a calm and perturbed expression on her face, Sae stuck the Divine short sword back into her abdomen, before her expression suddenly turned malevolent.

Sae clasped my finger pitifully and uttered embarrassedly, “I’m... out of strength.””

“......”

I knew it. There was definitely a reason why this Sword Spirit hasn’t continued to use magic against the clown.

“What should we do? From the looks of it, if he continues to go crazy like that, we’ll all be finished.”

“No... don’t worry.” Sae’s eyes burst with a splendor unlike anything before as she replied: “As long as Master gives me a bit of blood, everything will be alright.”

“Huh?

“Blood...blood. Just a bit will do,” said Sae. Pulling out the short sword embedded in her abdomen, she proceeded to shove it right into my hand: “Use...use this. Just a few drops will do.”

Looking at the blood gushing out from Sae’s abdomen, I had a feeling as though Eleanor would never, ever return back to her body.

With things progressing up till this point, there was no way for me to reject Sae’s request. Rubbing my fingers lightly across the edge of the sword to open my skin up, a few drops of blood fell onto the short sword before handing it back to Sae: “This should be sufficient, right?”

“It’s...it’s enough. Thanks, master.” with a calm look on her face, Sae shoved the sword back into her abdomen. In the next moment, magic power surged out from her entire body, before she disappeared in an instant.

Sae reappeared right before the clown. Her blood stained clothes ruffling about within the wind, she looked down at the clown arrogantly. With a slight movement of her lips, she spoke out a cold and emotionless death sentence: “Die, you vulgar and inferior life form.”

Sensing the true aura of death emanating from Sae, the crazed clown roared out as his mind collapsed: “Why! Why! Why do you want to kill me! You clearly know how much I worshipped you! Yet why do you want to kill me! Why!!!”

A sign of a haughty expression appeared at the corner of Sae’s mouth, while her eyes were filled with icy-cold indifference: “Being worshipped by an inferior lifeform like you really makes me feel extremely disgusted.”

As Sae waved her hand, an array formed out of purple crystal structures appeared around the clown, sealing all of his retreat routes.

“Therefore, I want to kill you, a....dirty bug.”
