422 A Devastating Attack!
—–
Erika’s figure and over twenty of her Dolls emerged before Blake, all of her dolls had become Magic Swordsmen, covering their small swords with flames, and unleashing several slashing attacks in unison with Erika. While Blake and Elora held the bone golem in place, Erika was given the task of defending both of them. Of course, her strength had evolved and advanced a lot over this time, leveling up a lot enhanced her physical strength and magical power, and the Erika of right now was much different than the one from before.
CLAASH! CLAASH! CLAAASH!
Her sword unlashed several Aura Slashes consecutively, as the small and adorable girl valiantly defended the boy she loved. Blake smiled at her amazing bravery, praising her incredible techniques. She had been raised well and all the effort and time he put into teaching her was now paying off greatly.
“Erika, hang in there!” He said.
“I can… keep up!” Erika said, slashing into pieces a large piece of bone that attempted to pierce through her body.
CLAAASH!
Smaller bones began to slash through her arms, but they didn’t bleed, as they only gained scratches. Unlike everyone else here, Erika’s body was made of an incredibly hard wood, as it was a magic doll’s body. She was able to withstand many blows, the sharp bones attacking her still hurt her, as she was equipped with pain reception magic so she could detect danger, however, right now, she couldn’t falter.
“RAAAAAHHH!”
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
While everybody else was busy dealing with the two powerful High Rotten Giants who were coming from left and right, forcing the team to split their fighters, Erika singlehandedly stopped a storm of bones emerging from the blood bubble with her dolls.
Her arms and part of her body began to retain countless scratches as pieces of wood began to come out her body. However, Blake quickly brought out his ace… or aces.
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
Having drank two Lesser Mana Potions, leaving him with only three last ones inside his Inventory Bag, Blake immediately refilled his Grimoire with new Familiar Spirit Cards, one after the other!
“Come! Giant Flesh Wall!”
He immediately summoned 40 Familiar Spirit Zombies and merged them together into an enormous wall of flesh protecting Erika from the bones as the wall of flesh started to fight back, resisting the constant attacks.
“GRUOOHHHH!”
The Bone Golem roared back, trying to free itself from Eleanora’s Blood Bubble. It was working, slowly, it would get out and completely rampage everything!
FLASH!
However, just in time, an arc of light emerged right behind Blake, as the young boy couldn’t help but smile the same way he had done even in his previous life.
Behind him, the three priests and Eric combined their magic and Ki, as the branches of Yggdrasil moved by themselves, converging into an enormous cannon-shaped trunk that began to gather their magic.
“Yggdrasil Cannon!” Eric and Elizabeth roared, channeling their Mana and Ki into it and then firing a tremendous, Undead exterminating beam of life and holy light!
FLAAAAASSSSSHHHHH!!!
The enormous attack reached not only the Bone Golem being kept still, but also both High Rotten Giants nearby that got right in the middle of the beam stupidly trying to stop it from reaching their big boss.
BOOOOMMM! BOOOOMMM!
Both Giants exploded into pieces the instant they were caught in the beam, as the beam continued its course, reaching the enormous Bone Golem and impacting it with everything it had!
Naturally, the Golem fought back with its phantasmal essence, but it was nothing but futile!
“GRUUUAAAARRR…!”
The wailing cries of hundreds of souls making up this powerful bone undead echoed furiously, as it was overtaken by the power of Yggdrasil Cannon, consumed by the light, and turning into ashes! Blake didn’t wasted any time devouring the souls that made that Undead, boosting his Physique’s strength in the process.
However, the beam was stronger than they imagined, reaching farther into the fight between the old necromancer and Ellergest, and impacting the necromancer which Ellergest smartly put right into the range of the attack by hugging his body with his enormous arms and standing still!
“You’re going down, no matter what!”
Ellergest looked at his friend as he hugged his body and then conjured rocks and stones to capture him in place. He knew the beam wouldn’t affect him as much due to his elemental resistances and affinity, taking the bet!
“What the…?!”
BOOOOOOMMMM!!!
“Nnngggh…?!”
The Necromancer groaned in agony as his entire body was overtaken by the beam of light. The life and holy light within it began to turn his armor and his enormous sword into ashes, as his fusion with his spirit dissipated. His bones began to burn and his skin and flesh disappeared in an instant, leaving him in the pure bones.
“You bastard…!”
The necromancer roared with utmost fury, attacking Ellergest with his magic, but within this beam of light, nothing came out as everything was consumed. His very hands were bones and barely hurt the old man who was still merged with his powerful Mountain Turtle.
“Let me go…! Let me…! Uuuaaggggh…!”
FLAAAAASH!
The light reached the confines of the forest, burning through the Necromancer’s entire domain and destroying it in the process. To the old Kyle, the whiteness was like living hell, consuming his entire being. The hatred burning through his soul remained, somehow, all his Mana was poured to free himself, as his bones shaped into spikes, piercing Ellergest’s body and making the old priest vomit blood.
“Uggh… Kyle… Stop this, that’s enough!” Ellergest fell to his knees, and so did the old Necromancer.
“Youuu… I cannot forgive you! I have to at least… I have to at least kill you! You bastard…!” Kyle muttered. “I bet you’ve had it all good through your life, haven’t you?! When did you even struggled?! When did you even shed a tear formed from your suffering and hardship?! I’ve worked so hard… for this moment… All for it to banish in front of me…”
The old Necromancer looked into the clear blue sky, as memories of the past flashed through his mind.
“Kyle… I am sorry…” Ellergest said.
