Chapter 38: Demon Viscount (2)
Infernal magic the advanced form of the novice tier fire magic. The advanced magic is said to be so powerful that it can level an entire city and was very difficult to master. Additionally, it required a colossal amount of manas to cast. In the world of Althaea, you are already considered an elite if you can master advanced tier magic.
Not to mention that the people who can actually master the magic of this caliber are few and far between. Even the current Simon wasn’t able to master advanced tier magic and was only able to reach intermediate tier flame magic. He was aware that if the Crimson Blazing Flame Blade didn’t bestow him with the skill [Infernal Magic Mastery], it would still be a long while before he could advanced tier magic
“Truly worthy of being [A] rank, all the DP spent on upgrading it had paid tremendously” he laughed out loud and looked towards another battlefield. A Black warhorse burning in crimson flames and clad in ancient armor was stampeding large groups of Killer Worker Bees as it charged across the sky. Piles of rubble and corpses decorated the ground. It roared in a wild and unbridled manner and charged towards another group of bees. With a flap of its wide draconic wings, it instantly covered the distance and used its large antler-like horns to pierce the enemies one after the other. In the past month, the Bloodthorn Demonic Warhorse had grown quite a bit, it had reached level 180 and also gained a few new skills.
Simon himself had also leveled up quite a bit since then and was now level 199. And currently, he was grinding experience and trying to reach level 200. Sounds of air vibrating and buzzing reached his ears as he refocused his attention on his own battlefield. Swarms of furious Killer Worker Bees surrounded him from all directions as they screeched. Watching this scene, Simon revealed a fearless smile and beckoned with his hand.
Immediately after the bees charged at him enraged by his taunting actions and revealed their pointed stings. The Stings of the Killer Worker Bees were said to be so sharp that they could pierce most shields and were excellent materials to forge swords with. He imagined that if he got pierced by this many stings at once, he would be turned into swiss cheese. Pouring manas into his wings, he carefully dodged all the stings that came at him and parried the ones he couldn’t.
Swarmed by all directions, he was forced to dodge left and right. Even with his defense stats which was quite high, he didn’t dare to take on their Stings carelessly and felt threatened by the sharp glints on their stings. Recalling all of the shriveled corpses whose life force have been sucked dry along the way, he didn’t dare to underestimate their sting attacks. However, he was outnumbered and couldn’t constantly dodge the attacks that came from his blind spots.
All the constant dodging made him annoyed as he loudly roared and forcefully broke out of the encirclement. On his way, he got pierced several times and blood was coming out of the injured areas. A paralyzing effect was also spreading from the places that got pierced by their stings. Clenching his teeth and forcefully suppressing the effect, Simon charged straight towards the sky like a rocket, the swarms of bees chasing him like a black cloud.
BZZZZZZ… Looking from afar, it just seemed like a black cloud that was constantly changing shapes, chasing after a small dot. A vibrating noise that assaulted one’s ear constantly came from the cloud and the air distorted wherever the black cloud traveled.
“Don’t think I’m the same as the last time we met” Simon roared as he stopped his ascend. Gravity took its effect and his body started falling down. He flapped his wings and increased the speed of his descend even further. “Sword mastery, super cutting enhancement, super piercing enhancement, super strength… haaaaaahhhh..[Thousand Piercing Sword Storm]” he used his skills to boost his strength even further and with a loud yell, he hacked at the onrushing bees thousands of times with the Crimson Blazing Flame Blade.
Thousands of crimson sword shadows came flying down like a rainstorm and pierced all the bees like a hot knife slicing through butter.PIERCE… PIERCE… PIERCE each of the attacks was so strong that even after piercing the Killer Worker Bees, its momentum didn’t decrease even a bit. Thousands of sword shadows slammed into the ground and filled it with tiny holes. Seconds later, the bees that were pierced by the sword shadows burst into a bloody pulp and fell to the ground like a rain of blood and corpses, a horrific scene.
Simon who was high up in the sky looked at the sight with satisfaction as he inhaled hurried breaths of air. [Thousand Piercing Sword Storm] It took a toll on his body to activate all these skills together but the might displayed by the skill was enough to forget his exhaustion.
“Huff… huff… huff… It was a bit of an overkill to use it one these bees huh.” Turning his head he looked at the battlefield where the Bloodthorn Demonic Warhorse was. The Warhorse was also done defeating its enemies as it hurriedly flew towards him. “You did a good job. This should be enough for today let us return,” he patted its head and rode on to it as they flew back
