Chapter 490: Third Fight: Dan & Gustavo VS Kamei & Orb 1
-----
Orb and Kamei looked at Dan and Gustavo in the eyes. Dan smiled defiantly as he had an air of cockiness that couldn't be taken away by anyone. Meanwhile, Gustavo death serious stare made the two girls feel inherently nervous.
Despite this, both of their minds seemed to be planning different things.
Dan seemed to be disappointed. The girl at the side of Orb ended calming her down, and his initial plan had crumbled right after that.
Meanwhile, Gustavo decided to not confuse these girls with his past sisters, and simply fight with what power he had left after so many years. He had begun to believe his power was fading away as he began to grow weaker and older, so he thought that perhaps the power he once wielded wasn't there anymore…
Both pairs looked each other at the eyes, as the Skeleton Butler, Sebas, finally decided to begin the battle…
The Skeleton Butler looked at the scene… after receiving the nod from Clementine, he sighed.
"Once more, another fight is about to begin…"
"Alright! The fight might begin… NOW!"
The Skeleton Butler raised his skeletal hand as he gave the signal of the fight to begin, the pair looked at each other, as their divine auras emanated from their bodies…!
The fight was finally about to begin!
As he gave the signal… nothing happened.
The two pairs looked at each other, as they expected the other to jump towards the other or gave them the honor of throwing an attack first.
Kamei only waited a split of a second, as she conjured magic right away!
FLASH!
Several magic circles emerged around her, spiraling beautiful and majestically. Dan and Gustavo were left speechless as she did this in just… a second?! Something that could easily take several seconds of chanting was formed in just a single second!
"Holy Light Arrow Rain!"
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
The four massive magic circles that emerged above her all fired a storming barrage of holy light arrows, flashing with bright yellow-gold light. These powerful arrows made of holy light shone brightly, piercing the wind itself and reaching the Vampires at flashing speed while leaving trails of sparkling light behind them!
They were only of around half a meter big, but they seemed deadly as those that impacted the ground exploded into power all-consuming divine holy light explosions!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The two Vampires began to evade the attacks as they finally started to move! However, Dan was taken aback, and the arrows pierced some parts of his body, burning through him.
"Agh…! Nngh…!"
"Hmph."
Gustavo, however, had waved his hands as an invisible mass of mana-consuming energy emerged out of his very body and soul, covering him like a bubble or a barrier, any magic attack that hit it was broken down to their magic particle level, as if he completely disintegrated magic!
He waved his hand as the released a wave of this power, which the two could only call Anti-Magic, as the shockwave of invisible Anti-Magic devoured and tore apart all of Kamei's magic, and even destroyed her magic circle!
CRASHHHHH…!
"W-What…!"
Kamei was left speechless, she had never seen someone be able to completely negate magic like this… she had seen others use magic of other elements to counter her magic and destroy her magic circles, but never something like this where a completely alien power she had never seen before completely negated and destroyed her magic!
Gustav had barely moved from his original position since the battle started, his power was phenomenal against magic users, it left them completely useless!
"What… was that?!" asked Orb in surprise.
Clementine smiled as she spoke to Frank and the others, who couldn't intervene in the battle. She knew those fighting couldn't listen to her.
"This is the mysterious power of Gustavo that my father saw that day when he revived him into a Vampire long ago… a power within him that had the ability to negate things, such as diseases, magic, and even negative elements that could affect his body… This is a unique Ability of his own self, which he had developed greatly after he evolved into a Vampire and practiced it. This is not simply Anti-Magic after all." Said Clementine.
It seems that Gustavo's power wasn't as simple as Anti-Magic… what could it possibly be?!
However, she did said it even helped him protect himself when he was a child from diseases, toxic elements, and negative elements… what could this power even be about?
This was, perhaps, the reason why Gustav had survived from diseases when all of his family had fallen ill from them and died… he was the last man standing on his family due to this anomaly on his body and soul which he had been born with.
This wasn't simply a power he was taught or something… this was something latent of himself.
Orb and Kamei couldn't help but feel a shiver run through their spines as they saw the expressionless face of this old man, he was calm like the breeze…
"What's wrong? I don't have all the time of the world, young girls." He said, he suddenly pointed hit the ground with his staff as a sudden mass of this power he possessed condensed before him and formed into a near-invisible spear, flashing towards Kamei and Orb!
FLAAAAAAASSSSSHHH!
"Holy Light Fortress!"
FLASH!
Kamei quickly generated a counter spell, she created a powerful spell with a lot of mana and divine energy into it, so it would be even harder to break down, as a massive fortress made of holy light suddenly protected her and Orb from the massive spear made from this strange energy!
CLAAAASSSHHH!!!
The spear clashed against the fortress, and just as Kamei had thought, the fortress began to be slowly tore apart, but because she had put extra effort and energy into it, it took some time to break down!
At the same time, her sharp eyes suddenly noticed that the spear of transparent energy dissipated like wind after hitting the fortress!
POOF…!
"Oh?"
Clementine couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, she didn't expect this girl to easily find a way to counter Gustav's power!
However… this was just starting.
