Chapter 552: Angela Became Even More Powerful
Shirley and Graham haven’t noticed that I have arrived. But Angela has even though she’s facing the other side. Seems like her detection skill is slightly better than artificial master level mage’s.
After seeing that I have arrived, she stopped attacking and is preparing for something. The other two didn’t know why Angela did that as they were panicked seeing that a lightning element artificial master level mage is about to attack her.
But all of a sudden, that lightning mage was stopped. It’s because I shot him with Victogun filled with Blobbybullets.
“Shirley, protect Angela. Graham, Angela still has some wounds, so heal her. I will kill as much as possible while waiting for Angela’s big attack!” I shouted.
The two of them finally noticed that I’m here and they did as I instructed. Graham ignored the attacking mohawks while believing that Shirley will protect him and Angela. As for me, I will take care of the mohawks that Shirley missed.
There were quite a lot of mohawks in this place. But it’s not as much as the mohawks that I previously fought. Even if I’m alone, I can kill them all. Though it would take time.
But since I’m not alone, there won’t be any problem with time. As soon as Angela used her magic, many of the mohawks will be killed. And we can quickly return to the capital to take care of the rest.
.....
“Roy, you can do what you did before. Killing them as swift as possible while waiting for Angela to attack. No need to care that you will be showered in blood again. I’l just absorb those blood later,” Victoria said.
“That’s my plan anyway. Though I hope we won’t get hit by Angela’s stray attack,” I replied.
I don’t know why Angela needs time to do it. It may be because the magic she will use is powerful. Or that she’s out of mana and need time to recover slightly.
What I do know is that this might be her strongest magic. And if I’m not careful, I might get hit.
Until she casted her magic, I need to see carefully with my Divine Vision of the change in the surrounding. I know that Angela is good with her control that she would never hit me. But I still need to be careful at least.
Graham and Shirley looked at me in awe for killing so many artificial master level mages so quickly. I have improved so much that my attack can now piece through their magic shield. Although their Earth Wall is still too much for me, protection of other elements are not a problem.
But Graham and Shirley are both very good. Even though they are watching me, they can still focus on their task. And they were not afraid of me unlike the soldiers.
For this fight, I used dual Victokatanas on both hands. This way, I can hit more enemies at once. And I should be able to kill much more than before at a faster rate.
And I have also improved the Ostrich’s Footwork so much that they can’t be called as Ostrich’s Footwork anymore. It is now something that I personally use and only I can do. Even better than any ostriches. Let’s call it Roy’s footwork for now.
With my footwork technique and the swiftness of my attack after fighting so many mohawks, I kill and kill more of them. But there are still many of them.
And they who noticed that I’m an Aura user keep their distance. So, I also need to attack them using my long range attack. But that will take more time, so I keep moving and get closer to any of the mohawk and kill them one by one instead of focusing those who are too far.
Meanwhile, Shirley was also fighting the mohawks. She noticed that the enemies now focused more on me than Angela, so she targeted those who are too far for me. But she won’t do it for much longer.
Why? Because I can tell that Angela is ready to move.
Angela who has been silent for a while, is fully focused on something. And thanks to Graham who keeps healing her, she no longer has any visible injuries anymore. At least from what I can see.
And although it was unnecessary, she’s still making a gesture with her hands while performing her magic. With her left hand raised to right in front of her eyes.
And as she did that gesture, the earth raised. It’s a huge amount of Earth Spikes protruding from the ground. And the numbers of the spikes are as much as the number of the enemies.
That’s right, each Earth Spikes are focused on one artificial master level mage. Though some of the mohawks noticed that there’s a trace of magic on the ground before Angela’s magic fully activated, they could dodge or block it before it could kill them.
Some flies into the sky to dodge Angela’s magic. They must be feeling lucky to be able to dodge it. It’s because Angela’s magic is too fast and precise. Most of those who dodged it are earth mages. Either they are artificial master level mages, or their earth element reached expert level. I don’t think those who are advanced level earth mages or lower can dodge or block Angela’s magic.
But Angela’s magic is not over yet. This time, her right hand moved.
She moved her right hand up in the air, and then she pressed her left hand which is still in front of her eyes. And that’s similar to her next magic.
From the sky, multiple Ice Spears were created. There are as many of them as the mohawks who dodged or blocked her Earth Spikes. That’s a really amazing control of her magic. And her concentration is so great. If only she could concentrate this hard in other areas, she would be more amazing. But just focusing on magic and battle for her is enough.
Each of Angela’s Ice Spears pierced the rest of the enemies. No one was spared. All of the mohawks got hit and died, while she also managed to make sure that we won’t get hit by her attack.
...If she is this strong, then we might need to give her a partner. Someone who can keep up with her and protect her while she’s preparing huge magic.
Though for her, I don’t doubt that she can do anything on her own. She can prepare her magic while being protected by magic barrier that she created herself. Though she must have spend a lot of mana during the fight against Shirley. Just how intense was their fight?
Although I said that I’m not interested in watching the match, there’s no way that I won’t be curious, right? For Shirley to injure Angela and make her spend so much mana. It must be an amazing fight.
“Good job, Angela. Seems like you have grown much stronger than even when I brought you to fight the monsters,” I said to Angela.
Back when I was fighting the dragon, she was busy with the other monsters. And then, she alone finished the gigantic tortoise as she blew it to the sky. But now, it seems like she is much stronger than that time. Even though it was just a few days since then.
“You too, Roy. If you’re not protecting us, you would be able to kill all of them alone. You have became much stronger and faster. I can’t wait until I have the chance to fight you again,” Angela said.
And of course she doesn’t forget to challenge me again.
Let’s ignore her challenge for now. We can fight as much as she wants once the cult is destroyed.
“You too, Shirley. Although I didn’t get to watch your fight, I can tell how intense your match was from both your conditions. If you’re tired, I can bring you somewhere safe,” I said.
“I’ll pass. Although I’m tired, I can still fight. And the enemy won’t let us rest peacefully anyway,” Shirley said. And Angela agrees with her.
“What about you?” I asked Graham.
“How’s the other angels and the fight on their side?” he asked back.
“It’s over. We won. There are no casualties among the angels. Only the fight here remains,” I replied.
“Is that so? That’s good. I’m tired, but I can’t let my master waste his mana to send me away. I’ll fly on my own to where humans’ kings are after resting here for a bit,” Graham said.
He has been fighting all the time after knowing his sister was used as an experiment by the cult. And now that the battle is near the end, he seems exhausted already. I won’t force him to fight anymore. He can take a rest. And guarding Albert and the others is the best choice for him right now.
“Then you do that. Let’s go!”
Angela, Shirley, and I fly toward the capital. But just as I take a step in the air, both Shirley and Angela grabbed my arms and let me tag along with them.
I guess it’s their way to tell me to take it easy even if it’s just for a while. Well, I’ll take that offer.
