Chapter 293 [293] From Enemies To Allies!
[Previously, With Lucas And Laura.]
The battle continued. Lucas and Laura both fought intensely but the outcome was foreseeable.
Lucas would win, as he had done previously.
Laura was not a fighter. Although her rank was high it had to be known that she was not a fighter. For most of her life, she had been focused on earning as much money as she could using whatever means possible.
She had made efforts in making money, not improving her strength. Normally she would've been fine...But her opponent was Lucas.
Lucas Hiddleston, A Prodigy ranked fourth in the First Year Shield rankings. Furthermore, he was also a Student of the Sword Saint, Arken Miller. And he also had an overpowered bloodline now...
It was as if all of Laura's misdeeds and the karma she had accumulated had come back to bite her in the form of Lucas. Being her opponent after all.
She had thought she would win this time...why wouldn't she?
She was greatly empowered by the great Lord's blessing and her bloodline concentration had increased...what else could she want? Furthermore, the Chaos Energy in the atmosphere should be Weakening Lucas and empowering her! yet still she was getting a beating!
"Kghh..."
She coughed up blood. her knees gave out and she lowered her head... This was humiliating for her.
*KNG*KNG*
Lucas's chains strike the ground, producing sharp and metallic noises as pieces of concrete break apart.
"Kekeke..."
He was laughing like a Maniac! He looked like on too.
Currently, Lucas was using his Green Aura to its absolute limit! His eyes, mouth, and all orifices emitted a green light and in this environment, it aroused fear!
Green energy covered his body, Lightning crackled around it...His Golden hair flew into the skies as if he was a diety!
"Not to someone like you...."
Muttered Laura, Her voice held disdain and a firm resolve.
"Not to a rich...A pampered brat like you...Not to you..."
Lucas could hear Laura's low voice with his enhanced senses...he only wondered what she was going on about?
Rich? I guess. Pampered? Fuck no.
This woman had no idea how the Hiddleston family worked.
IT was a family in which even if you were the son of the Head himself, you were regarded as a slave if you were unworthy! He had known multiple people who were equal to servants but had the Hiddleston blood in them.
It was just their motto.
Even Lucas suffered in his early days in the family. He had adopted his previous nature because of the environment he was in since birth!
'Blood can be pure, But Strength is the most pure.'
That was the Hiddleston motto. The Strongest was the patriarch. It wasn't decided based on who was born first.
"NOT TO YOU!"
A sudden shockwave took Lucas by Surprise, he coated himself with his Aura to defend himself. Thankfully, due to his quick reflexes, he was able to avoid being thrown back.
A Golden mist covered Laura, and Lucas felt his heart beat wildly... He had wanted this sensation...He wanted this.
This unfamiliar...this desired heat in his body!
The thrill of battle! This was the same feeling...That had invoked 'it'. That had awoken the state that had allowed him to draw with Alan!
"Yeah...this is it...Finish it."
He said...he want Laura to finish her transformation. Only then did he have a chance to unlock that state again. The state that had allowed him to gain Aura and this bloodline.
*CRACKLE!*CRACKLE!*
Lightning surrounded his entire body, his chains...everything. The Powerful lightning that was created by his bloodline powered everything...Yes, this feeling is what he desired.
He gazed at the massive six-tailed fox that had emerged from the Golden mist...
He smiled at it. A Psychotic smile. It was a majestic fox but Lucas just didnt care...
The fox attacked but like a flash of lightning, Lucas disappeared and appeared behind it.
Before the Six tailed golden foxes (Laura) could even respond...Chains bound her entire figure and she found herself being lifted into the air. Spinning in circles.
Lucas's immense strength lifted her in the air and then...He flung her high into the sky.
"YEEHAW!"
It was something familiar...?
********
[Currently, Lucas And Sabrina Vs Claire and Laura.]
Sabrina fired off multiple Dark Spears at Claire and Laura. All of them hit because both of them were unable to move. Claire hurriedly put forth a shield to protect them. But some still damaged them. She wondered how the fuck Laura was here but that was not the main cause of worry right now! The situation is dire.
She grabbed one of Laura's tails with her mouth and ran far away.
[What are you doing here?]
She asked them, producing a human voice with her mana...But Laura didnt respond. She looked tired, Blood came out from her mouth and her eyes looked dead.
[...]
Claire judged that right now wasn't the best time for chit-chat.
[Whatever, just support me with all you can.]
She declared, Thankfully they could have this discussion because something happened between Lucas And Sabrina.
When they were talking, Lucas appeared in front of Sabrina. Before Sabrina could even question what was happening he looked at her and said.
"Destroy the damn altar. Leave this to me."
"You want to take them both?!"
"Shut the fuck up and go."
"!?"
"Leave this to me, and destroy the damn barrier."
Sabrina was dumbfounded. How could he even think of handling this by himself? He wasn't Alan!
But...the waves of powerful energy emanating from Lucas did prove something.
"I can't just-"
"Hey look, I know I was an asshole, Im sorry K? So Just listen to me and Leave. I want to fight both of them by myself!"
"..."
Sabrina didn't understand this idiot...As she looked at the two beats and the beacon behind them...She knew that the Alliance couldn't hold on for long. especially in this environment where they were burdened and their enemy was empowered.
'...I can use that.'
"Make sure they don't get near me, And you can fight them both for all I care."
Lucas didnt quite understand why. But he understood that now he could fight both of them if he just didnt care. All he needed to do was make sure they didnt touch them right?
good...That he could do.
The amount of lightning around Lucas's body increased tremendously...It felt as if he could destroy entire mountains now... His body was growing a bit bigger as the Lightning covered him in a dome.
"YOU THINK I WILL LET YOU DO THAT?!"
Claire knew what He was doing, She had done it herself! He was undergoing a bloodline transformation.
HE MUST BE STOPPED.
**********
[Sabrina Pov]
The battle between Lucas and the beasts had begun...I didnt look back as I walked forward with all my might. I occasionally used Mana Sense so I could gain an idea of the battle behind me every now and then. Lucas was holding them off both spectacularly...
'...this is the perfect distance...'
*CRACKLE*CRACKLE*
I could hear the violent crackling of lightning and various other noises of the fierce battle behind her.
I don't know how he's so strong suddenly...But I frankly don't care.
I gazed at the large beacon in front of my eyes, I could see some traces of battle here and there in front and some Awakened and demonic beings fighting...
I took out the Adept Staff of Darkness and Lightning along with some other items as I prepared to do something truly unbelievable.
[Darkness Spear.] was originally a C-rank skill, But now... She will elevate it to higher ranks...
As much as she could. This was something she had read about...And hoped it would work. It was possible, technically in theory.
No one had tried this maneuver before.
What was it? Simply destroy the items you have at your disposal, take all of their mana and concentrate it into a spell to elevate it to higher ranks. Simple.
Sabrina spread out her mana into the items and the Mana within them all gathered In Sabrina's palm.
Sabrina shuddered at the immense power, at the immense mana she was holding in he rarms...It was difficult to even stand because of the great Pressure.
And then... she condensed it. Blood came out of her mouth when she did. The great amount of mana under her control was disastrous for her.
She condensed all the mana she could into a black sphere...A Sphere that she launched towards the barrier. She had made proper adjustments so that no ally would be hit.
Slowly... the speed of that sphere increased and a Massive, MASSIVE spear of darkness was formed... Which headed towards the Altar into the distance. Sabrina collapsed on her knees as she stared at the dark spear with hope.
[You have completed a marvellous, never before seen feat!]
[You have received the title: One who destroyed, to create.]
She had a hard time reading the messages due to the pain in her entire body...She felt a large being blitz by her, attempting to stop the Dark Spear.
It was Claire...But Sabrina didnt worry.
They had won, Claire would die trying to stop that MASSIVE spear.
And she was right.
