Chapter 1808 Ultimate Failsafe Against the Probing
Boom.
It was as if a mini-sun had been summoned in the middle of the forest.
The light produced by the blast was so intense that it had the power to overwhelm one's vision, forcing them to see nothing but a white illuminance all around them.
The sound produced by the blast was equally terrifying. It could make even the Master Ranked witnesses have hearing troubles and shake their souls from within.
A domain of flame and Wrath Mana was created with Eren and Nira at the center before it quickly expanded outward. It affected the spatial fabric of the region and made mana storms appear all around.
As a delayed effect of the blast, the ground quaked, and the shockwaves spread around. A cloud of dust shaped like mushrooms soared into the sky.
The A-Ranked fire-element mana broke through its Ranking Restrictions with the help of the Wrath Mana, allowing the blast to have a similar effect as if a premium-grade S-Ranked potion bomb had been detonated on the spot.
A huge crater was created in the middle of the unnamed battlefield as an A-Ranked Grandmaster with the solid-state mana core decided to blow himself up to cover the secrets he had with him. The outcome was more dreadful than one could imagine in their wildest dreams.
Even someone who used forbidden magic and decided to implode their mana core wouldn't be able to achieve the destructive potential that Lemaar's suicide bomber attack had unleashed on Nira and her subordinates. The detonation was so unbelievable that it could only be regarded as an abstract art.
The Wrath Mana integrated into the explosion was so potent that the ground zero of the explosion would stay affected by it for years on end. People and mana beasts who roamed in this area would be affected by this Wrath Mana and go into fits of rage.
Some rare resources would be born here and mana beasts affected by the Wrath Mana in the region would be able to break through their Ranking Restrictions more easily.
But this will happen in the future. At this point, this unknown forest region was nothing but a wasteland.
One could obviously guess that Eren had integrated this mechanism into Lemaar's body from the moment he was chosen to act as one of his pseudo-avatars. This was not something one could achieve with mere spontaneous suicide attacks or using makeshift potions or artifacts.

Somewhere in Labh Salem.
A grand mansion surrounded by thick and ever-restless mist.
"Aaaaaaaargh!"
A painful cry erupted from the depths of the grand mansion, and the array formations laid down within the surroundings lit up abruptly.
Inside a highly protected chamber.
Nira Nightshade woke up and howled in pain. She sat up straight, waving her hand to dispel the Grand Runic Circle she was currently in, freeing herself from her physical restrictions.
Nira clenched her fists and controlled her scream, eventually restoring silence to her mansion. She then looked at her thighs and saw that they had been injured by some unknown force. Even her vagina was leaking blood as if she was suffering from some form of internal bleeding.
This was Nira's first time experiencing such an injury since ascending to the Rank of the Saint. One had to note that only a minor portion of the damage had been reflected onto her real body through her alchemy doll. Nonetheless, Nira couldn't help but curse the severe drawbacks associated with using the alchemy doll.
"That man went to great lengths to cover his tracks," Nira gritted her teeth as she mumbled to herself. "It means that the secrets he carries are also significant. I... I better get Lehan on my side to deal with him."
Nira thought before getting up from her position.
She snapped her fingers, making the superficial injuries disappear before walking in a certain direction.
Contacting Sansara Sage was troublesome, but it was a trouble she was willing to endure to confront Lemaar and the entity behind him.Follow current novels at novelhall.com)
