Chapter 71 Battle Is About To Start!

B-rank Dungeon, Lava-Lake

Above the half-destroyed volcano…

"Traitor you say, heh… What if… I told you that the reason I am here is…" (Durik)

Durik raised his hand and pointed his finger toward Anna:

"You are the reason!" (Durik)

"What are you talking about? Me?" (Anna)

"Yes, you! If only you haven't appeared in my life, I would have never fallen for you! If only you have never existed I would have never gone against the master, you are the reason for my demise, and you are the reason why I hate humans!" (Durik)

"I was thinking that the day when I will be able to take my revenge will come very late, but to think you will appear right in front of me without me even doing any effort! This is the best opportunity I could ever get!" (Durik)

As Durik continued to speak his expressions continued to become crazier and a huge grin appeared on his demonic face, his killing intent was so immense that if Anna hadn't covered it with her aura it could have harmed all the students present in this dungeon.

"That's why today, I must kill you and settle all the misery you have brought upon me! After I deal with you, I will then kill all those students which are going to be the humanities next generation!" (Durik)

'I can sense that there are two more demons roaming around and both are A-rankers, I must finish this fight fast and go help the students, otherwise, the casualties will continue to skyrocket.' (Anna)

"I don't care what your motives are or what you want to do! But I won't let you even touch a single student of mine, and I will avenge all the students you and your companions have killed until now!" (Anna)

"I see" (Durik)

Durik stopped flapping his wings, he pointed his huge great sword towards the sky and a huge magic circle appeared under his feet, the circle had a crimson red color, it looked sinister and was giving off very huge amounts of killing intent.

The weather suddenly started to change. Dense clouds started to gather and cover the bright sun in the sky as the sunlight slowly dimmed under the clouds, a silver moon appeared out of nowhere between the clouds. (That's not a real moon it's an illusion, built by aftereffects of Durik's demonic spell.)

[Blessing of the Silver moon!]

The werewolf-type body of Durik suddenly started to bulk up, his muscles started to expand and strengthen, his aura pressure increased, and even the killing intent he was giving off increased by manifolds.

Durik's great sword's color also turned Dark Red, even his pupils turned red.

(All this happened in a span of three seconds.)

"If you refuse to die, I will kill you!" (Durik)

As Durik said that, he launched toward Anna at a terrifying speed, if the speed Jiang had was of a snail, then Durik's speed can be considered a flying jet. There's basically no comparison between them.

"I wonder if you can kill me!" (Anna)

Even after all this Anna didn't flinch even a little bit, she simply prepared her spell and attacked at the moment it was important:

[Fire Domain!]

(Domain- Every human who has reached S-rank, awakens their own domain when they become S-rank. A domain can help you predict and track the movements of the enemies around you, it can enhance all your stats temporarily, and it can even enhance your attacks.)

Anna pointed her wand towards the sky:

[Master rank Fire Magic: Fire dragon's Descent!]

A huge magic circle appeared behind Anna and a huge dragon, made of pure blue flames flew out of the huge magic circle, the dragon was big enough that it could be considered a young dragon who is about to reach adulthood. (Of course, it's not a real dragon, it's a mimicry of a dragon made out of condensed fire element.)

Anna then pointed her wand towards Durik and gave her command to the Elemental dragon:

"Go!" (Anna)

Water-Fall area

"What do we do!? There's so many of these Red ogres and they are increasing in number even now!" (Riya)

While Riya said this looking at Lia who was looking at the ogres around them, Lia just replied:

"Don't worry it will take more than this to bring down the glorious sword of the silver family." (Lia)

[Body strengthening!]

[Blessing of Aura- Silver Lion's protection!]

(Silver Lion- This is a divine spirit, although no one can confirm its existence, it is a famous legend that the founder of the silver family had made a contract with the Silver Lion and was blessed by that spirit's protection.)

(Every member of the Silver family can use the blessing of the Silver Lion, to boost their stats temporarily but no one has awakened the Divine spirit after the founder of the silver family.)

As Lia used her buffing skills, a grin appeared on her face, if someone looked at her now, they will understand why she have the nickname 'Mad demon Sword' because her face now looked no inferior to a mad demon at this point.

When she entered combat mode her tsundere behavior disappeared in smoke, in combat she doesn't care about emotions, only the mad swinging of the sword matters, that's the way of her fighting, barbaric and unpredictable, just a mad onslaught.

"Let's dance!" (Lia)

Lia blasted off from the spot she was standing towards the ogre which was closest to them.

As the silver sword in Lia's hand shined with brilliance and elegance, the sword moved in totally a barbaric way, making the brilliance and elegance words eat dirt.

She directly blasted a huge hole in the ogre's chest with brute force blasting its heart and lungs to pieces, a huge amount of blood splashed on Lia's face making her look even more terrifying and intimidating.

What followed after this was a one-sided massacre. Every single attack Lia did was aimed at the vitals of the opponent, in just a few minutes she blasted off the heads and hearts of many ogres making a huge pile of the dead bodies of the ogres around her.

(Lia's swordsmanship technique focuses more on thrusting stabbing attacks instead of slicing attacks.)

Some of the corpses had their head blasted off and some of them had a huge holes in their chest. This horrifying sight plus the huge grin on Lia's blood-smeared face can easily give trauma to anyone.

Looking at the agile and strong Lia blasting through the ogres, Riya was totally dumbfounded. All the things that she has learned in the books looked like trash now.

According to the knowledge she got from the books it would have been very difficult for a C-ranker like Lia to even kill a single ogre, yet here she is carrying out a sided-massacre, she even seems happy about it.

(Well Lia is a special case, generally, the C-rankers are not so strong. Lia is a battle maniac and has crazy amounts of battle experience.)

'I should also assist Lia!' (Riya)

The usual playfulness in Riya's eyes turned serious at this moment.

Riya pointed her hand towards Lia:

[Enhance Recovery!]

[Enhance physique!]

[Enhance mana recovery!]

[Protection of divine healing!]

'This should do! Now I just have to maintain the flow of mana to continue these enhancements going!' (Riya)

As Riya used her skills on Lia, she buffed the already strong Lia, to new heights, making her stats stronger than five ogres combined. Not to mention her physique now could be compared to an Adult ogre in pure brute strength, she even has amazing agility and is capable of dodging every attack these slow ogres do.

The massacre continued but there seemed to be no end to the number of ogres.

'Lia really lives up to the name of the 'Mad demon Sword' her fighting style is really like a mad demon, she is blasting off all the ogres as if they are made of paper.' (Riya)

'Lia is indeed strong but if this continues, we both will run out of mana eventually, the number of ogres is not decreasing at all, instead, it seems to be increasing.' (Riya)

'Also I can now vaguely see that one huge ogre, it is much bigger than all of the others that must be their leader and the adult ogre who planned this.' (Riya)

Just as the adult ogre was about to reach Lia, a huge killing intent appeared from the sky out of nowhere, all the ogres stopped and went limp, some started to run and some started to scream.

The adult ogre tried to reorganize the other ogres but just as it was about to shout, it was crushed by the person who descended from the sky.

The person had two curved black horns and two huge wings like a bat. His eyes were pitch black like a demon and he was giving off huge killing intent while saying a single thing:

"Kill!" (Jiang)
