Chapter 130: Trading Blows

The effects of Restoration helped counter the healing effects of the Necromancer's aura. Geth cast his spell repeatedly while his Skeletons pelted the monster with arrows.

He dodged and tanked as many of the other creature's hits as he could. The number of enemies and weakening effect from the aura caused him to take more damage than usual.

Cuts and bruises began to build up on his skin as he took the blows. Even so, he continued to cast his buff until the Knight was on its knees.

One of his tames appeared just when the Skeleton Knight's health dropped to critical levels. It slashed both of its daggers in a cross at the Sub-Boss.

The Knight was flung away and crashed lifelessly against a nearby wall. His Skeleton tame stepped back into the darkness and faded away.

'This isn't fast enough.' Geth glanced over at the Skeleton King that was struggling to break free.Rêạd new chapters at novelhall.com

The stone that its leg was trapped in began to crack. Geth didn't have long to thin the herd.

He threw up as many Barriers as possible to separate the Necromancer from the Sub-Bosses. The Barriers wouldn't hold long. He could already see the Boss' aura tearing through their health.

Geth went back to spamming Mass Invocation. His Mana almost ran out when another Skeleton Knight dropped along with a Raised Forsaken.

'Seven left.'

Geth suddenly felt as if he were in danger. He jumped back out of instinct.

A gigantic sword swung down directly in front of him, cleaving a Raised Forsaken in two.

He had little time to react as the sword was pulled back and then swung in an upward arc towards him in the same motion.

Geth gripped his staff with both hands and held it perpendicular in front of him.

It would take him two minutes of not casting to recover all of his Mana. Geth glanced at his Skeletons, which were firing at one of the monsters in the Formation.

The Sub-Bosses in the Necromancers range weren't moving, even with the damage they were taking from the arrows.

"Pick one and knock it out of the Formation!" Geth yelled. He wasn't sure where the Assassin was hiding, but he hoped it would hear him.

The Skeleton King closed back in on him, but it was enough time for him to gain a couple hundred MP. He cast Restoration on himself and sprinted forward to meet the creature.

His selves were working furiously to determine the King's moves. The two began to trade blows, the waves from each clash causing nearby debris to scatter off.

Geth leached off some of the Skeleton's health with each successful strike. The Lifesteal Gem glowed brighter with every hit.

None of the damage caused by the Boss could keep up with his regeneration.

'If this were just a one on one it wouldn't be any trouble.' Geth took a brief moment to glance at the Necromancer.

It still hadn't moved from its position, but he could see that his Skeletons were fighting a Sub-Boss outside the Formation. The extra Wisdom he'd given his tames was showing now.

Each of the Skeletons alternated firing from the corners, keeping their damage equal. The Forsaken that had been thrown out didn't seem to be in range of the Necromancer's orders.

The creature kept switching targets before reaching one, unsure of which tame to pursue. Its health was dwindling rapidly from being pelted with arrows and daggers.

'Good, that's one less problem. Only five more after that,' Geth thought to himself while shifting his focus back to the Skeleton King.

The battle went on as such until he had fully recovered his Mana. He took a few significant blows in that time but managed to heal up before the monster could land another hit.

"Hahaha! You're finished now!" Geth yelled at the Boss the moment his Mana Pool had completely refilled.
