Chapter 639 A Nymph’s Blessing
?”As we expected, more of you stingy people came crawling from your comfy seats,” A dream walker walked out of the horde of abomination, staring straight at Alcott and Nina, his eyes panning back toward the girls, “Why don’t you grant us a place in the world?” He stared at them, his eyes glowing blue.
“This feeling,” Aella growled, “That one isn’t like the others,” She pulled the string of her bow, charging a massive wind arrow. “Zephyr!”
“I know,” BAM! She fired the arrow toward him with a powerful surge of magic.
Upon impact, the arrow exploded in a massive shockwave.
“How sad, my friend.” Everyone gasped, seeing the dream walker standing in the back alongside the one Nina killed, “Don’t worry, even if we don’t see the new world, the future generations will eventually,”
The dream walker’s black hide started smoking, shifting in color to white as mana condensed on his skin.
SWOSH! Alcott lunged forward without warning, swinging at the abomination’s neck.
As the sword impacted, it shattered with a powerful shockwave, and Alcott flew past the dream walker.
“Call me Angus, the blood slayer of the dream walkers,” His eyes shifted toward Eris, “You smell bad, reeking of the gods,” He disappeared.
Eris instinctively lifted her arms in a boxer’s guard, blocking Angus’s punch. She could feel the bones in her forearms crack as her body got sent back, ^This thing, it’s faster than Arad with time slow,^
Eris growled, and a ball of plasma emerged in front of her forearms. [Plasma Beam] The ball burst into a ray of purple light, racing toward Angus.
Angus disappeared again. It only took him one leap to land behind Eris and dodge her beam.
From his hands, two massive shadow blades emerged, crackling with unknown magic as he swung at Eris’s back.
“Get away from her!” Zephyr flew in, punching the massive beast in her fairy form, sending him flying.
“What was that?” Angus growled as he rolled on the ground, bleeding from his mouth as he held his cheek, “That was a heavy hit,” His eyes quickly noticed the tiny flying creature, “It was you?” He glared at Zephyr.
Isdis gasped, sweating as she saw Angus standing again. ^What happened? He was standing far away. Why is he here? And why is Eris’s arms bleeding?^ He was too fast for her to see, her human eyes holding her back.
“Everyone!” Isdis pulled a drum, “Get ready!” She shouted as she started drumming, [Drums of War]
From behind her, a spectral band emerged out of the shadows, playing with her.
Aella pulled her bow strong, aiming at Angus, but then two regular dream walkers emerged from the ground behind her. ^I can’t dodge,^ She gasped.
“Aella!” Zephyr teleported into Aella’s body and emerged from her head, blasting the two abominations into the sky with an air burst, “Don’t let your guard down,”
“Alcott! I’ll taunt them and you…” Nina looked back, seeing Alcott fall on his face, asleep. She paused, stunned, “He fell for their spell?”
“Damn it! Even I didn’t fall for it!” Merida growled, lunging forward, “Nina! Let’s go, let Ginger wake him up!”
Ginger looked at Alcott, seeing specs of light floating around his body, “No! This is… First Nymph’s blessing!”
Alcott Demorian was an ordinary adventurer at the start but with his hard mindset and tendency to dance with the most dangerous and weirdest things in the world, he had gathered several blessings and curses that aren’t even registered in his system.
From the blessing he got, he has cleansed the beauty origin of four nymphs and gained their blessing.
The latest one he got was a mind-one blessing that prevents his personality from being tampered with unless the caster targets the nymph with him.
The one before that is a simple blessing that makes him even more attractive to women. Albeit, that had helped him gain the attention of many powerful women.
The second to first one was an immunity to all nymph’s magic and nature, he can’t die or be blinded by them, and they can’t seduce him. He asked for it since the first nymph he had met had scarred him badly.
The first nymph he ever met and got her blessing was a cheeky, seductive, nymphomaniac. Of course, being young and naive, and with how mindbogglingly beautiful the nymph was, Alcott accepted her invitation to sleep with her.
He thought it was a once in a lifetime. ^Let’s see how a nymph tastes.^
Unknown to him, a nymph’s thirst couldn’t be quelled so easily, and he had already passed out from exhaustion after six hours of action, which led the nymph to grant him a blessing to help him keep going.
As Merida and Nina rushed toward the abominations, they could see a shadow fly past them at a blinding speed, cutting the dream walkers in the blink of an eye with a shockwave.
Alcott stood behind the splashing blood, sleepwalking with a blade in his hand, his whole body crackling with the nymph’s magic, fueling his body with stamina.
The blessing allows Alcott to keep moving even when asleep and also grants him extra stamina by converting the mana of the blessing into that. It was first intended for him to satisfy the nymph’s desires, but now he had turned into a weapon that got the fear and respect of all dragons.
“Here we go again,” Claug growled, “That’s the restless dragon slayer the wyrms fear,”
Ginger smiled. ^Now with his enchanted senses thanks to my blood and the lycanthropy curse. He’s still a formidable foe even when his eyes are closed due to being asleep.^
The dream walkers gasped as they saw their friends get cut into pieces, “That man had gotten faster! Kill him first!” Several of them lunged at Alcott as the rest tried to block Merida and Nina.
Giver waved her hand, and hundreds of blood spikes emerged from the ground, impaling the abominations. “I can’t use their blood! It’s strange,” She shouted, “Don’t rely on my blood magic a lot!” She pulled a staff and pointed it at the abominations. [Chain Lightning]
A bolt of lightning crackled from her staff and jumped toward the abominations, which they easily dodged. But that left them open as Nina swung her axe, ripping them apart with Merida who backed her, making sure to finish any abomination that survived her rage.
CRACKLE! In the distance, Eris ran beside Angus, her body crackling with plasma as she clenched a fist, staring at him. “You’re fast,” She said.
“Said the one who’s barely keeping a kick at his knee.
Angus dodged, lunging back.
TICK! His leg pushed a steel wire, causing the ground beneath him to explode in a massive flare. “What? A trap?” He gasped, rolling on the ground and landing on all four. He then immediately saw a flash of bright light coming from between the flames.
Lydia stomped forward as she swung her sword at his head, [Divine Cleaver] 𝑙𝘪𝒷𝓇𝑒𝑎𝑑.𝘤𝑜𝑚
CLAP! Lydia got a direct hit, sending him flying backward with a deep cut into his face. “Eris! Those creatures are hated by the gods! Holy magic should be effective!”
“Got it,” Eris smiled, holy magic cracking from her shoulders. [Holy Expansion: Solar Domain]
