Chapter 1044 Alma's True Might!
-----
Alma unleashed a powerful shockwave of her pure Mana into the skies, dozens of mechs fell into the ground, their internal circuits were all fried in an instant through the usage of her endless amounts of energy. However, the mechs thrown to the ground, despite the surprise of Greenwood, quickly got back up again. Their internal circuit were fried… but so what? With the power of self-repairing nanomachines inside of their bodies, such parts were fixed in a matter of seconds.
"They're getting back up again!" Knife told to Alma.
Alma didn't seem to falter nor feel shocked by that, as she had seen how the mechs were getting back up again and again when they were fighting Drake and his party.
"Alma, how about you use my strength now? You should've gotten strong enough to channel more of it now!" The Knife spoke, suddenly turning into a long purple blade with rose-shaped decorations on its handle. The blade shone with the brightness of moonlight itself.
"I guess you're right!" Alma said with a smile. Her Mana flowed out of her body, covering her entire body and materializing into thousands of thin layers that formed an invisible armor. "Mana Armor, Body Enhancement!"
FLAAASH!
Without hesitating, Alma was the first one to attack, rushing forward at full speed. She swung the powerful Divine Weapon she held, as an enormous wave of Moonlight Energy was unleashed in the shape of half a moon.
CLAAASH!
One of the mechs in front of her was easily sliced in half by her attack, as the two halves slowly turned into liquid metal and tried to unify together.
"Ugh, this is harder than I thought." Alma thought, however, she quickly sensed something.
Within both halves, there were large cores filled to the brim with Divine Power. The Divine Power continued coming out rapidly as if it was leaking. Alma quickly realized there were cracks in the core.
"Those cores… we have to destroy them!" Alma said to the rest, who were struggling to fight as well.
She rushed forward like a blur of gray light and then reached the two halves of the mech. Countless of liquid metal tentacles emerged out of them, attempting to catch her.
However, a strong gust of icy winds reached the two halves, temporarily freezing them. Alma smiled, realizing a large ice dragon golem was flying right above her. Drake was helping her even now.
"Thanks for that! Mana Blade Arts: Countless Slashes!"
Alma imbued Mana into her sword, Knife, who had shapeshifted into a long sword and then she unleashed a series of slashing attacks so fast that it seemed as if the sword itself generated countless mirages.
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! CRAAASH!
The cores were all shattered and broken apart, the mech itself was unable to fuel its large requirements of divine power and ended as junk.
"Now that's what I am talking about! Let's kill some more! Been a while since we have crushed some bastards, Alma!" The Sword spoke to Alma with a rather rowdy voice, although she had grown used to him long ago.
"You talk way too loudly…" Sighed Alma, the other mechs approached her, as metallic blades and red lasers reached her.
"[Mana Barrier]"
Alma conjured a mere Mana Barrier; the weakest barrier spell out there with no element. However, boosted with an endless supply of Mana, it gained thousands of layers in mere seconds and the red beams capable of piercing through Rank 7 and above beings were easily deflected.
"[Magic Reflection]!"
FLAAASH!
Her barrier suddenly turned into a mirror-like shield, quickly reflecting the red lasers one by one and sending them straight back to the mechs. Her sword was swung vertically, as she unleashed a new and powerful Mana Blade Art.
"Mana Blade Arts: Sword Aura!"
Alma's Mana merged within her sword as an Aura was unleashed, surrounding her body as countless gray swords made purely out of Mana emerged one after the other, and they were all fired towards the mechs in front of her, aiming at their joints, and making them fall, while she unleashed [Mana Disruption] to make them all fall one by one.
CLASH!
CLASH!
CLAAASH!
She continued moving rapidly, crushing their Divine Cores while feeling the adrenaline pumping through her veins. Her heart was beating faster and faster as she smiled. Alma had gone through many challenges in her life, and despite being young for an elf, she had a large, accumulated amount of experience in battle.
And above all, her Divine Weapon was not normal. Knife was a powerful Sacred Treasure made by the Moonlight Princess Venerable of the Alfheim Continent. This powerful knife held the power to absorb the essence and abilities of other magic items it devoured.
Over time, her Knife was able to devour many magic swords, granting the sword abilities such as Swordsmanship, Sword Mastery, Magic Swordsmanship, and more. Now, all converged together within her hands and her endless Mana, they unleashed a completely ridiculous amount of sheer power.
CRAAASH! CRAAASH! CRAAASH!
Three more mechs fell before her might, as Alma pointed her hands at one flying from above and generating a single Aura Sword, which quickly multiplied into two, three, four, five, ten, twenty, fifty, a hundred, three hundred, one thousand, and more!
"Sword Aura Storm."
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
Thousands of Sword-shaped Mana Projectiles pierced through the body of the snake-shaped mech, tearing it down apart and revealing to Alma the red divine cores within, which she quickly destroyed swiftly as Drake's Ice Golems slowed down the mechs using their Permafrost Spell.
CRAAASH!
The snake-shaped mech fell into the floor completely motionless, each divine core being completely shattered with ease as Alma continued fighting without stopping. Drake was obviously seeing her fight and was quite honestly taken aback.
"What the hell? Is that really that one elf girl that couldn't do a single thing?! Maybe she just needed the right moment to show her might?" Wondered the young Dragon King, as he saw a mass of plants of all types move over Heaven Port. "And that guy over there… Is he really a Dragon?"
