King of succubus-Chapter 292 Immersed In The Darkness.
[Unsealing!]
He slowly murmured to himself.
At that moment, his magical energy, already like a sharp blade beheading anyone approaching him, turned into a chaotic cyclone that could take everything in its path!
"What?! He had sealed his central mana core?! How could an intermediate divine mage do that?!" Helios, who was with Sabrina, and the other four look at them with dismay.
"What are these black pillars?! Shouldn't the divine domain be made up of magical energy only? Why do I have the impression that his divine domain looks more like a primordial domain than a divine domain?" Xelor whispered in a deep tone.
"Instead of worrying about his domain or energy, I think the most unthinkable thing is to see him use a kind of energy that is as mysterious as the energy of these people. Sigh, and I, who thought he was arrogant. Mistress, where did you find this person at the end?!" Ferda also asked, after hearing the question of Helios and Xelor, who was more interested in Alvine's darkness than anything else.
Unlike the others, Xelor was the person who mastered dark affinity more than anyone else. But Alvine's hundreds of pillars and soul chains were utterly unknown to him.
'So, he practiced dual cultivation with this woman, Huh? I had doubts at first when I noticed his magical energy that was lower than usual, but I would never have thought that he had sealed almost all his powers. But is it even possible to use magical energy after sealing his central core, which is the main mechanism for storing magical energy? Unless he continually collects energy from the environment to fuel his spells? Even if dual cultivation allows him to acquire the affinity of his partners, this mastery is too abnormal on his part. Sigh, I guess it was thanks to this factor that he could move his core before being stabbed in the heart.' As for Sabrina, who was the center of attention of these four, she also had her own concerns.
She knew the source of Alvine's shadow energies and the existence of these pillars; since she had already seen these mysterious things when she received Sylvia's report after their return from the Garyth's plantation. The only mystery he had left was to understand how Alvine had removed these pillars from his dimension so far. Even if it was not exactly what she thought the pillars were.
And her second question was, why had Alvine taken so much risk and fought with his sealed powers?
But this question did not remain a mystery for her for long.
While the primordials and Sebass were in their studies, Alvine's expression became even more diabolical when he noticed that the four shamans were a hundred meters from the platform.
[Gehenna flames' shield!]
He murmured as he looked at the scarlet platform.
-Hooh!!
At the same time, four kilometers from him, a black flame dome covered the platform that was also in his divine domain.
(!!) Seeing this dark shield, but yet, without heat, one of the four shamans with a silver dress did not stop, unlike his pairs.
He clung to his long spear by letting his Ki sprinkle with his body.
((Forty-third movement of the ghostly arts: Invisible path!))
He stabbed Alvine's shield dome with his martial art skill.
At the same time, his spear and body became transparent, becoming an astral soul that could pass through all material defenses!
-Arghhh!!!!
But the next moment, the three who had stopped halfway heard the horrible cries of their comrades burning in Alvine's black flames.
(How?!) The other shaman with brown hair stammered these words when he saw the three-star shaman consumed by Alvin's flame despite being in the form of a spirit!
(This bastard uses martial arts linked to the soul! Use your skills--!! 𝙛𝑟𝑒e𝘸𝑒𝗯𝘯𝗼𝘃el.𝒄𝒐m
Before Doungra finished his words, his facial muscles contracted by noticing a bloody, dark energy with an endless bloodthirsty above them!
-Gulp!!
They took away their saliva after crossing Alvine's demonic gaze.
(Kuku, do you want to flee? Why? Why the bastards like you want to live?! Answer me, why the little shits like you want to survive?!) Alvine thundered madly while his voice resounded throughout his domain as the only ruler!
(...)
Seeing their silences, Alvine slams the tongue of dissatisfaction. He then points his hand at the other two shamans,
-Rumble!! Rumble!!
And the next moment, another earthquake set in, followed by the appearance of another giant pillar ten meters from them!
But before they moved away from it, the dark soul chains booed them towards them, with as fast speed as a blink of eyes, and attached them to the pillar, leaving only the bald man free.
(What are you going to do now? Are you running away? Begging me to spare you? Or attack me to have a little, for more fun?) Alvine then asked.
But instead of answering Alvine's question, Doungra looked behind him and finally noticed that the battlefield had become calm only because his subordinates were all captured by Alvine's chains.
(I have a deal for you, fight me with all your strength and equal weapon, and I will let you return safe and sound; by killing only half of your subordinates to compensate for the loss you have caused me.) Alvine's voice woke him up in his desperate state.
(...) But despite Alvine's proposal, he remained silent, obviously not believing in Alvine's words.
(Of course~, you will also leave me all your possessions before leaving. That's the price to pay for committing such stings in my house.) He added, with a severe air.
(...)
But seeing him still silent, Alvine landed slowly ten meters from him, followed by three dark silhouettes that appeared behind him.
"Ignotus, kill ten of these bastards!" He murmured to his shadow soldier, who now resembled him as if it was his twin after turning into 'God of Slaughter'.
*Kuku, if that is the lord's wish, then be it!*
At the same time, without moving from his place, Ignotus reaches out to one of the pillars closest to them, but which is still one kilometer away from them.
-Arghhhh!!
Even before Alvine wonders what Ignotus intended to do, painful cries resounded in his divine domain. And the next moment, ten scarlet pearls, covered with a blue liquid, appeared in Ignotus' palm.
*My lord, your orders have been executed to perfection.* The erratic tone of Ignotus, who could not hide his joy, resounded behind Alvine, who frowned.
'A spatial affinity? No, it's almost a law of gravity. Otherwise, his pearls would not be covered with blood if he had teleported them from their bodies; he almost snatched them with a gravitational affinity. I'm starting to like this man more and more.' Alvine whispered in his thoughts, looking calmly at the ten levitating pearls in Ignotus' palm.
After that, he then looked at Doungra with an impassive smile on his lips. (Otherwise, I would kill as much as you are before going to sow chaos, which you wanted to prevent at all costs, on your land!) He announced coldly.
At that moment, Doungra, handling a long white sword, had no choice but to put himself in an offensive position.
(You see~? I knew you could do it.) Alvine commented when he saw Goundra make his decision.
(You're going to keep your promise, aren't you?)
(Of course~, why would I lie to you? Killing you is as easy for me as snapping my fingers, so why would I waste my time on that?) He asked while shrugging.
(Very good, so I think so!) In saying these words, Doungra bent his knees and jumped towards Alvine, using all the strength he could towards Alvine.
'Kuku, this bastard has finally made the best decision he had to make!' While retorting these words in his thoughts, chains of souls came out in Doungra's shadow and immobilized him before his sword reached Alvine's heart.
(You?! Y-You said to beat us without using our martial arts skills! Why do you--
(Ah, it's true; I remember saying that. But you were so slow that I ended up getting impatient because I was waiting for you.) Alvine replied with a sinister smile when he saw Doungra's surprised expression.
After that, he snatched the milky white sword from his hand.
(Do you remember the vicious method with which you killed the owner of this sword? As his affinities were weak compared to yours, you offered him a duel of this kind to force him to lower his guard. If I remember correctly, the owner of this sword was my grandfather!)
(?! V-your grandp--$��$��!!
Before Goundra finished his sentence, Alvine sliced the latter's jaw, spraying his blood like a broken fountain.
(... Huh?! Do you want to pronounce his name? My word~, so your ego has no limit?) He then replied without blinking, even though his face was stained with Doungra's blood.
(&�#%��!!)
(Hm? So you don't know how to use spiritual communication skills? Sigh, it's both annoying and frustrating.) He calmly commented while tapping Doungra's shoulder.
Following this, he opened a spiritual channel between him and Goundra: *(I'm listening to you, what have you just said?!)*
*(...)* Despite Alvine's attempt to be able to communicate with Goundra, the latter remained silent while trying to resist his pain.
(You don't want to talk? So tell me, do Brita, Groute, and Ruyto remind you of memories?)
(?!?) When he heard Alvine pronounce these three names, his expression became similar to that of Alvine.
Seeing this empty and inexpressive expression on his face, Alvine felt like he was breathing for the first time.
(Kukuk-Kahahahahah!! All right~ my only fear at the beginning was that you are wild creatures devoid of emotion. But as soon as I saw your dear and tender family in your memories, I changed my plans.) While ending these words, he looks at his shadow soldiers.
(Stella, Ignis, and you, little man, make all these bastards here suffer. But anyone who dares to kill them before my return replaces one of his victims on the pillars!) Even if he had spoken these words in a foreign language, his three subordinates understood what Alvine had just said to them.
He then looked at Goundra with his impassive expression. (I have an idea, why not accompany me for a friendly visit to your dear family, Hm~? My whole body trembles with impatience and ecstasy. I would never have imagined that seeing the suffering of others could be so pleasant and so...euphoric~!)
