Chapter 330 Black Serpent In Action



After they entered the portal, they returned to the Ginehart Manor at the capital. The master was currently sitting in the manor's living room on the first floor. He had a lot of snacks on the table and was currently sipping tea while watching several holographic screens.

"You are back," the master spoke. He did not even look up to see who it was because his eyes were focused on one of the screens.

Mr. C guided Nahar to one of the empty seats adjacent to where the master was sitting. He was sitting at an angle where he could also watch what was happening to the other members of the master's group. The butler also conscientiously offered the guardian spirit a drink.

"That was impressive. It was my first time to see a spirit's true form and you were not weak either. I thought you had weakened because of the dark mana that infected your forest." Cygnus remarked after the man was comfortably sitting.

Nahar laughed, "Thank you. I did become weak but for some reason I had overcome that weakness and managed to turn it into my power. Now I can easily revert back to my spirit and human form without problem. That time when we met at that forest, I was stuck with my human form."

"Nevertheless, it is still a remarkable growth. I didn't think you'd still grow." Cygnus was clearly happy while saying those words.

"It is all thanks to you. I think your dark mana has helped me stabilize a lot." Nahar did not forget to compliment the master.

To be stuck in that years for thousands of years made him somber and aloof to the world. He forgot how it was like to be able to freely roam without restrictions. He was bound and he thought that he was going to disappear just like that. Thanks to the master for giving him a chance.

Cygnus chuckled and a wide grin appeared on his face. "I don't need words. From now on, you should continue to perform beautifully for me."

Nahar nodded and acquiesced to the master's words. There were no words that followed that last statement as they watched what was going on to the others who were sent to subdue the master's enemies. What the master had enlarged was the fight between Reitou and a member of the Circle of Eight that could summon creatures from the abyss.

Just like Nahar, Reitou was thrown to a place of ruins where no people dared to enter. He was confused and lost for a moment because the details from the master were not clear enough. He only understood that they should capture some people and then he was suddenly hurled where he was now.

He stayed in the same place and did not move because he did not have the energy to do so. They just did an experiment at the Blackwell duchy when he was suddenly summoned, so he decided to wait. Reitou just spread a little bit of his gray mana around the place as bait.

Wherever he looked around, there were only collapsed buildings with overgrown grasses and wildflowers on them. Based on what he felt from his mana, the ruins span out into a few miles in diameter. This made him conclude that this place was a fallen city or even a kingdom. This did not matter though because he was there for something else.

It took about ten minutes before a person appeared a few meters away from him. The man was tall and lanky. His face was sunken and his eye sockets were popping like they were about to fall out. The man was only staring at Reitou without moving and they remained in that kind of state for a couple of minutes.

"Aren't you going to attack me?" Reitou asked with a low voice that still reached the man who had been staring at him.

The man took his time before he answered. "I will not. I can tell that you are strong. I'm just wondering why a man like you is here in my territory?"

"That's because my master wants me to capture you and bring you to him," Reitou answered. He stood up from the fallen pillar of a building where he was sitting and slowly floated towards the lanky man. "If you won't attack then I have no choice but to attack first."

Reitou transformed into his serpent form and flicked his tail towards the man. His moving tail stirred the dust from the ground and a loud 'clang' echoed in that open area. Reitou could feel that his tail collided with something hard.I think you should take a look at pandasnovel.com

When the dust settled, he could see a large shield that was in between him and the lanky man. So, this was what it was. Reitou did not stop and continued to hit the shield a couple of times. He also tried to hit the man from other directions but the lanky man was able to move that large shield with ease.

If that was the case, Reitou decided to enlarge his body which also caused his attack power to increase. He also added some corrosive poison to his tail. The serpent's eyes narrowed before he flicked his tail and hit the shield once again.

The poison was smudged on the metal shield and it started to eat the material. After a few more hits, the shield finally corroded and already had a hole on it. Reitou flicked his tail once again and this time the shield broke.

He did not stop his tail's momentum and continued to attack. The lanky man then summoned two weapons that blocked the tail. Even though the weapons corroded easily, it still managed to give him time to get out of the way from the tail.

He rolled on the ground and summoned more weapons before crouching on the ground and using his leg's strength to push him up in the air. The lanky man was holding a sword on both of his hands and behind his back were a line of weapons that were pointed towards Reitou. He then flashed forward and tried to stab the serpent's head.

ƥandasnovel.com A black smoke surrounded the serpent's head which broke the weapons that the lanky man used. Reitou lifted his tail and flicked it again towards the lanky man. He was hit and he landed on the ground hard. The ground cracked but the lanky man was still alive.

The lanky man slowly stood up and several magic circles appeared around the serpent. Several weapons appeared and attacked the serpent. After the first wave, several waves followed after that. with the lanky man's overwhelming mana, it was possible.

Reitou defended himself from the onslaught of the weapons and lost sight of the lanky man. To avoid being attacked, Reitou decided to return to his human form and used his mana to dispel all the weapons. Each weapon was thrown away and hit the ground but the lanky was out of Reitou's sight.

He looked around but did not see the man. Reitou frowned so, he let his mana loose once again to find his enemy. He had no time to play with him and he was not in the mood because he was tired from working day and night.

Just to make sure, he even injected poison into his mana and let it scatter around. The plants started to wilt after the black mana in the form of a smoke passed through them. Even the rocks and ruined buildings turned black and started to chip away.

The lanky man who turned invisible tried his best to avoid the black by hopping from one ruin to another. He gritted his teeth because of how things were going with them. He was living his life in peace and then suddenly someone was targeting them.

Reitou couldn't feel anything and used his last resort. He raised his hand and the black mana followed his hands direction. All of it went above and covered the sky. The dark mana then filled every space of the place which made it difficult for the lanky man to hide.

Not long after, his cover was discovered. Although he was invisible, Reitou could tell where he was hiding. A gray magic circle appeared above the lanky man and a black dagger appeared. It was coated with poison and it was projected towards the lanky man.

The lanky man was able to dodge but the dagger kept on following him wherever he went. Without much choice, he summoned another shield to protect himself and at the same time he threw several weapons towards Reitou who remained at the center of the smoke field.

Reitou sensed several objects coming his way so he waved his left hand and successfully changed the trajectory of the weapons. He then stretched his hand and created several magic circles around the position of the lanky man. Several more daggers appeared and chased the lanky man around.

He was using his shield and swords to stop the daggers but they suddenly became faster and a bit difficult to spot because of the smoke. He did his best but even that was not enough because one of the daggers grazed his arms. It was only a shallow wound but he immediately felt pain, a burning pain that spread through his entire body.
