Chapter 392 Sabrina.



After doing what was necessary, Alvine left Zakiel behind and went down to the last level of his castle, where the soldiers of the evolved shadows at the intermediate level were located.

He looks at the thirty shadow soldiers who do not yet have generals or captains to guide them with complex eyes.

He knew that the time was not for hesitation, especially knowing that the situation could upset him at any time.

With this idea in mind, his eyes have turned in blood-red, and he orders the thirty soldiers in the shadow to rise from their knees.

Then, the powers of some caught his attention, especially Ignotus, who resembles him when he transforms into his form of God Of Slaughter.

Ignis seemed to be close to some of Shadow's subordinates because of his titanic size of three hundred meters long.

'Ignis's powers are based on fire, like Heepha's clan. But apart from that, he has no affinity with them. His size is similar to the primordial giants that are under the orders of Shadow. But Ignis is not gifted with the skills of the shadows.

-Stella, for her part, is the most special of her kind. Among my subordinates, she and Luna are the only ones to be melee soldiers; they are as gifted with weapons as they are with magic.

Wait, it's a mistake I'm making. These shadow soldiers are a new generation that was born thanks to my wishes and the new skills I had obtained in the closet past.

In other words, they are as inexperienced as I was. So if I leave them with Shadow or the others, they will feel overwhelmed by the powers of these three generals and will not be able to evolve while showing their full potential. They will follow the paths of Shadow or Heepha while leaving their own.'

At that moment, Alvine realized that the cases of the weakest subordinates were more challenging to manage than those of the big hats.

That made him laugh with fun, not expecting to face such an incredulous challenge.

"If only I had a fairly competent leader at a slightly lower level?" It wasn't that he didn't have a solution, but it was just that he couldn't find someone experienced enough to help this group of twenty progress with a leader who was not overpowered.

But the heavens responded to his concerns when Sabrina suddenly appeared before him.

The most surprising thing for him was to see Sabrina come out in his shadow as his shadow soldiers do.

He looked at Sabrina with bright eyes! He did not need to ask her how she had done or when she reached the high-level primordial rank. He could feel the same connection with Sabrina as with his shadow soldiers.

'She to absorb part of the energy of one of the seeds. What a pity; if I were present with her, I could have helped her reach a higher rank than that. But it is already an incredible feat to see it exceed its level in such a short time. She will never stop surprising me, this girl.' A funny little smile stood on his lips when he noticed the seriousness in Sabrina's eyes.

He helps her get up while keeping his confused expression.

Sabrina was the person he considered to be the limit of the heavens. No matter how much he progressed, he realized that the chasm between him and Sabrina was even more unfathomable than he had imagined.

But to say that he had already exceeded the level of the person he considered his mentor, this feeling had a somewhat bitter taste for his taste buds.

"Congratulations on your breakthrough at the highest level of primordial rank. A little more, and you will manage to surpass little Reha." He whispers these words in her ear.

Just like him, Sabrina had also resumed her ordinary humanoid form. But unlike before, Alvine could not help marveling at Sabrina's appearance that he always could see despite the fact that she had not transformed.

"Hehe, it's thanks to you. Without your--

Before she finishes her sentence, Alvine interrupts her by placing his index finger on her lips.

"You don't need to thank me. Tell me instead if you have a problem or difficulty mastering your new powers; my advice may be a little useful to you." He says with a smile on his face.

But Sabrina, ah, Sabrina, she had misinterpreted Alvine's words.

A mysterious smile stood on her lips after hearing Alvine's proposal.

Alvine didn't need to ask to guess Sabrina's intentions.

"It's a bad idea, I don't know how much I've progressed, but I'm still stronger than you," Alvine announces with a proud air while feeling a little stupid to try to imitate the behavior of the naive little boy he was.

Sabrina was, at first, surprised to hear Alvine's statements.

But seeing the confidence in his eyes, she couldn't help but become curious. "... What do you think about testing this?" She displayed the sadistic smile that Alvine had missed so much.

But he knew she wouldn't give up if she showed such a smile.

In response, Alvine did not insist.

The ground under their feet suddenly widened, and an arena of a hundred meters surrounded them almost the moment Alvine nodded.

"... Is this your work?" Sabrina looked at Alvine with suspicion.

But in response, Alvine tilts his head with a vicious smile and says: Who knows? It may be my work, or maybe not.

He answers calmly. He knew that Sabrina would not understand even if he explained it. After reaching the transcendent rank by absorbing the power of one of the seeds, he understood several things; one of them was the specialty of the castle. The castle was completely independent of the planet and was full of space spells that compressed it into a small castle.

Each step that a person makes forward is more complex than it seems. This complexity did not leave Alvine indifferent.

Unlike Thumb's small mansion, which had a huge size from the inside, Alvine's castle was compressed. That's why new pieces kept appearing as if by magic. Other doors leading to other rooms had suddenly appeared without Alvine understanding why. However, he was sure, at that time, that the corridor had no other entries.

"Ho? Since when have you become so vicious as to play with words? Have you forgotten the beatings I have given you in recent years?" Sabrina showed a golden sword that she had created with her blood as she made this reminder to Alvine.

"Haha, I guess it's time to wash my honor." Alvine also retorted by creating the same Sabrina sword with his blood.

Except that his sword was silver-white.

Seeing this, Sabrina is more suspicious of him. Her eyes began by shining with a blood-red glow as she used her primordial perception to look at Alvine's cultivation level.

But even after thirty seconds, she found nothing abnormal; all the facts showed her that Albine was a high-ranking divine mage.

'It's strange; I can't help but be wary of him. Finally, let's start by lowering a--

Before she finished deciding to put herself at Alvine's level, to make the friendly duel more attractive, in her thoughts, she noticed Alvine murmuring to her in an inaudible voice.

(Do your best to get up on the ground.)

She frowns by interpreting the movements of Alvine's lips.

'Huh? Did I misinterpret the movements of his lips?' She was sure she was not mistaken since it was not her first time communicating with Alvine in this way.

But Alvine's words were so arrogant that she couldn't help but suspect them.

-Keukh!!

At least until she suddenly kneels in the face of the abnormal pressure from Alvine.

'?' Even if she didn't speak, her eyes revealed any mental shock she had.

"Hehe! You have become strong; I give up." Against all odds, Sabrina did not try to struggle; she forfeited.

But Alvine had a macabre smile when he heard Sabrina's decision.

"Ho, I see. In this case, I--

-Swoosh!!

"Like the hell, will I give up for so little!?" Sabrina suddenly appeared behind him as soon as Alvine lowered his guard against her.

Her blade whistles towards Alvine's neck with a monstrous speed that Alvine had never expected.

Honestly, Sabrina's power was not negligible, Alvine knew it, and since he spent almost all of his life with Sabrina, he could roughly guess all her future actions.

Thus, seeing Alvine dodge her attack with his blade without turning around, Sabrina automatically knew that he had also pretended to believe her when she said she would give up.

And just before her blade touched Alvine's, she swung her body and appeared above Alvine without the slightest difficulty.

Her speed, which was already breathtaking, suddenly increased, and her blade penetrated Alvine's chest.

-!

And at that moment, she suddenly stopped pushing her blade, feeling the tip of it on her back.

She did not need to turn her head to know that Alvine had created a small portal whose destination was behind her back. And she, who wanted to have Alvine by surprise by stabbing him in the heart, realized that Alvine was more vicious than her.

She knew she had to stop at a time if she didn't want to hurt herself.

She looked at Alvine's eyes with a cold smile and couldn't help asking him. Do you want me to commit suicide?"

Alvine innocently shakes his head and answers: "Let's say I have absolute confidence in your sword handling." Alvine whispered these words to her while their faces were only a few centimeters away from one to the other.

"...Your compliments look like disdain, given the delicate situation I am currently in." Sabrina raises her eyebrows, slightly frustrated.

She realized that Alvine had not only deviated from the trajectory of her attack but also had his blade under her throat. And unlike Alvine, she had not seen Alvine's attack coming, not to mention taking measures to prevent Alvine from touching her.

Seeing her frustration, Alvine had a complacent smile. But his following sentences gave Sabrina all the motivation in the world to beat him.

"Checkmate, Sabrina. It may be time to admit defeat before being further humiliated."

Alvine's last sentence made Sabrina red with embarrassment. But the next moment, she vanished into the trap set by Alvine and appeared fifty meters from him.

"Ho!? Your agility is incredible; I almost had trouble following you with my eyes." Alvine giggled and canceled his sword when he saw Sabrina do the same.

Sabrina's eyes became cold, proving that she was starting to become serious.

But unlike her, Alvine always smiled and watched Sabrina's every movement, breathing, or other tiny changes.

'She's amazing. I owe everything to this little girl. If I'm here, it's largely thanks to her. I would never tire of her presence; anyone who takes it will have a more cruel and perpetual death.' While Sabrina was in a battle royale mood, Alvine was content to watch her and enjoy the moment of peace.

At the same time, Sabrina hits the slabs with her long heels, and her shadow wobbles under her, showing the dozens of clones who had assisted her in treating the wounded city dwellers. She did not invoke all her clones, only 10%.

Alvine's eyes widen with surprise. But soon, a wicked smile stood on his lips.

"You want me to take care of these blood clones to save enough time to transform you, right?" He asked with a little more severity than before.

But Sabrina did not answer his question; a cocoon of golden blood suddenly surrounded her while her dozens of clones cared for Alvine.

One of her clones zooms in front of Alvine with her breakneck speed for an ordinary clone, and the aura blade at the tip of her fingers splits the air toward Alvine's torso.

-BOM!

But Alvine managed to stop the blow of Sabrina's clone while frowning.

'They have a power similar to low-ranking primordial beings. It would be a shame to kill them; their creations had to ask her too much effort.' Alvine whispers to himself while looking further at Sabrina, who is in the cocoon.

But the clone he thought he had neutralized had a small demonic smile. The aura blade around her fingers suddenly lengthens towards Alvine's chest!

Alvine, who could not act in time, was suddenly pierced by her blade!

But he didn't bleed; he didn't feel anything like pain. But Sabrina's attack had reached him well.

He looked at the clone's eyes with perplexity. He had done the same by creating a small portal to divert the attack of Sabrina's clone. But except that the latter had also done the same thing behind her back and shifted her attack that would hurt her toward Alvine's stomach.

She had created the same miniature portal as Alvine to succeed, except her portals were blood red instead of misty black like Alvine's.

'I understand. She momentarily owned her clone's body and waited for the right time to have me. She knew I would underestimate her clones and focus on her. As I thought, she is endowed with a steel mind.' While arriving at this conclusion, Alvine's body turns into black mist and flies to Alvine's former location before the battle begins.

At the same time, Sabrina's cocoon breaks and reveals her magical silhouette. She looked towards where the mist had just gone and realized that Alvine was sitting among the other shadow soldiers who looked at the battle like spectators.

'Fucking hell!? Don't tell me that I had so much difficulty taking care of a vulgar clone!?' She wonders with unbelieving eyes, despite the fact that she has the answer to this question.

At the same time, Alvine appeared in the middle of the arena with a slight smile on her lips. "Do you still want to continue?"

Sabrina's body ignites with rage while a humiliating and ironic smile curves the corners of her lips despite herself.

She places her blade on her shoulder and slightly bends her knees. Her eyes then became cold, and her smile became macabre.

"The hell must I!? - She exclaimed, disappearing into everyone's visual fields, including Alvine!
