Chapter 433 Sister
Armed with information from a space knight that he managed to seal, Tristan immediately ran towards a tower where his sister had been locked up all this time. Still, Tristan's efforts to meet Layla were not as easy as one might imagine.
Along the way, he was constantly blocked by Space Knights who managed hide in the palace. However, he didn't need to get his hands dirty to slaughter them this time, because there were already several Space Knight soldiers under his control and willing to open a path for him.
Finally, Tristan arrived at the gigantic door of a room. Without wasting time, he immediately smashed the door open.
He could see a brown-haired girl who had previously cowered in fear in the corner of the room, immediately got up as soon as she saw the arrival of Tristan. "Brother!!!"
Layla spontaneously ran while spreading her arms, but before she could get closer, suddenly a flash of white light shone brightly; A spherical projectile with an electric spark was thrown at her.
[ Thunderous Throw ]
WOSSH ... BOOM!
"Ahhhh!"
"Layla!!!"
The girl closed her eyes tightly, her small body was suddenly thrown up against the window. Pain immediately bombarded her as soon as the sound of broken glass was heard, indicating that the attack had succeeded in making her fall from the top of the tower.
BRAK!
"Layla!" Tristan screamed like a madman. He deftly used his [Blood Synthesis] ability, creating a net or any object that could prevent Layla from hitting the ground.
"My King!"
His movements halted, a familiar voice called out to Tristan in the middle of the chaotic situation; The owner of the voice turned out to be Nara, who was flying in front of Tristan.
The man then realized something. A sudden sigh of relief was heard as soon as he saw his sister's body lying on top of Nara's body; Apparently, the Dragon Bloodgem had caught Layla's body in time.
Tristan then jumped on his dragon body, he immediately checked Layla's condition. The man was a little grateful, because the attack wasn't from a high tier spell. Thus, even though Layla was injured and unconscious, at least the wound wasn't life threatening.
"Bring Layla back first!" he ordered Nara, while staring furiously at the Magus, who had been staring at him from the window with a grin full of mockery.
"Very well, My King."
Nara carried out the order and now the two of them were facing each other in the middle of the room, with a visible turmoil of hostility blazed from their eyes.
"You dare to hurt my sister, i will give you the most excruciating death!"
It was a half-moon magus, a presence as strong as the mighty Callan, but not enough to become a decent match for the current blood monarch.
Without wasting any more time, the Magus named Vernon immediately launched an opening attack. Both of his hands were raised up, and at that moment, the weather suddenly changed drastically.
The sky was filled with black clouds that covered the sun completely, while the thunder roared as though it was about to smite the whole kingdom.
Suddenly, a powerful bolt of lightning descended, collapsing the roof of the building and ending up hitting the crescent moon Magus' body.
BLARRR!
Tristan felt déjà vu when he saw the scene in front of him. And sure enough, the spell Vernon used was a spell that seemed to have been used by Prince Janus when fighting Tristan and ended in his own death.
Tristan was originally convinced of that until the Magus' clothes shattered and changed into white armor that dazzled his eyes to the point of blinding him; It wasn't the black armor like Prince Janus'. From this, Tristan already knew that it was a different spell.
[ Lightning Glare ] [ Magic spell tier 7 ]
The spell was one level higher, because besides being able to increase the effect of lightning-based magic for a certain time, the blaze that Vernon's armor flashed could cause his opponent's eyes to go blind if they were forced open; Thus, in a situation like this, the opponent could only depend on his Katra to fight. Of course, it would be very beneficial for the spell user.
Knowing that, Tristan used [Blood Synthesis] to create something that looked like a thick cloth to protect his eyes. High-grade Claymore Sword made of blood was also created.
At the same time, a long silver sword appeared in Vernon's hand, it was a tier 5 weapon enveloped in a stream of lightning.
Through his enhanced sense of hearing, Tristan could hear any sound that arose from every movement of his opponent.
Thump!
Starting from the sound of the floor being hit hard when Vernon jumped high.
Swoosh...
Until the sound of the air being split by the sharpness of the silver sword blade. He could hear all of them.
And now predicting the oncoming deadly attack was easy for him. When the Magus began to maneuver in the air and turned upside down, it looked like a rocket was hurtling towards Tristan.
Thereafter, the Blood Elf also jumped, responding directly to the Magus' attack with his Claymore Sword.
CLANK!
The clashing sound of two weapons resounded throughout the palace. The resulting violent collision ended with Tristan throwing the magus space knight a few steps away.
"That's it? is that all you got?! " Tristan shouted as his gaze upon his prey.
Not willing to let him go, Tristan quickly dashed forward and within just a few swings of his sword, the space knight magus was already overwhelmed, he was repeatedly pushed backward. Seeing it, the corner of Tristan's lips curled into a satisfied smile; It turned out that the Magus' sword skills weren't much better than his.
However, that didn't immediately give him the upper hand, because there came a time when Vernon managed to get a chance to launch an attack.
The Magus thrust his sword into Tristan's neck. The Blood Elf, however, managed to dodge it in time, causing the attack to miss and only graze his left shoulder.
In that very second, Tristan could feel that his hands were slowly getting hot as though they were covered in scalding coals. Suddenly, his entire left hand blackened like it had just been scorched.
The wind blew gently, yet it managed to destroy Tristan's left hand, just like ashes from a burning piece of paper.
However, the Blood Elf didn't care about it. He immediately used [Blood Synthesis] to form a new hand.
A look of worry quickly came out of Vernon's face when he saw how Tristan's hand immediately formed again.
Tristan smirked evilly. "Now it's my turn"
