Chapter 320: The Simultaneous Breakthrough of Yecheng and Lord Shadow
Chapter 320: The Simultaneous Breakthrough of Yecheng and Lord Shadow
(I'd appreciate some monthly votes, folks! I want to see how many readers are following the story. It feels like I'm playing a single-player game right now. /~~~)
"How dare you say that! If it weren't for your meddling, would things have escalated to this point?
If I had just defeated Olivier, the situation would've been resolved. But you had to show up and create a calamity with that Cataclysmic Sorceress.
And your opponent, the Cataclysmic Sorceress, has been interfering with me from the start!
If you have something to say, it's the same thing I'm thinking. If you can't handle it, just step aside and don't get in the way.
At worst, I'll unseal more of my mana and defeat both of them together."
Hearing Lord Shadow's accusation, Yecheng immediately became annoyed. Damn it, I'm a typical problem teenager with my Otaku tendencies, and he has the nerve to criticize me?
"What did you just say? Do you want me to take you out right now?"
"Then come at me. I've been waiting to teach you a lesson, you harem-building pervert!"
In contrast to the well-coordinated Olivier and Aurora, Yecheng and Lord Shadow started bickering with each other.
Seeing this, Alpha and the others covered their faces in exasperation.
Whether it was Lord Shadow or Lord Nightshadow, the residents of the Shadow Manor, including the Seven Shadows, had complete faith in their strength.
Although Olivier and Aurora were powerful, with the abilities of these two lords, defeating them was not a difficult task.
The only prerequisite was for the two lords to cooperate peacefully, at least to the extent of avoiding internal conflicts...
Aurora and Olivier's harmonious teamwork allowed their combined strength to surpass the sum of their individual powers.
However, Lord Shadow and Lord Nightshadow had achieved the opposite effect, where their combined strength was less than the sum of their individual abilities.
Despite being close friends and having a great relationship, due to their comparable strength and other factors, they often found themselves in heated arguments.
It was as if they couldn't help but bicker, and instead of working together seamlessly, they were lucky if they didn't hinder each other.
Olivier, who had just blocked an attack for Aurora, now demonstrated a new technique. As he landed, he kicked the ground with his bare feet.
It was unclear if this was due to his incredible speed or some ability, but suddenly, multiple images of Olivier appeared, and then even more, all attacking Yecheng and Lord Shadow simultaneously.
Facing the onslaught of multiple Oliviers, Yecheng and Lord Shadow could only fight while retreating. However, Aurora, who was still suspended in mid-air, raised her hands.
At almost the same moment, sharp blood-red spikes erupted from the ground, aiming directly at the bodies of Yecheng and Lord Shadow.
Thanks to their keen perception, they both sensed the danger and leaped into the air simultaneously. If it had been anyone else, they might have been skewered already.
However, even with their leap, Yecheng and Lord Shadow didn't completely escape the danger.
As they jumped, Olivier and Aurora reacted simultaneously.
Aurora clapped her hands, and the blood spikes on the ground transformed back into blood, forming a large sphere that completely enveloped Lord Shadow.
Yecheng's situation was even worse. The multiple Oliviers in the air merged again, and with a powerful strike, they not only shattered Yecheng's Light Sword but also sent him flying. The impact was so strong that it left a spiderweb of cracks on the wall where he collided!
"If this continues, Yecheng will truly lose. Damn it, Lord Shadow, why do you have to cause trouble at such a critical moment?"
Among the spectators, Roz and Alekseya were the most indignant, even more so than Medis and Kreaya.
Because they both saw it clearly, if it weren't for Shadow messing things up, Nocturne had a chance to defeat Olivier.
But because of this bastard Shadow, the Holy Realm summoned a Cataclysmic Sorceress, making the already challenging Goddess's Trial even more hellish at this moment.
If Nocturne could defeat the legendary hero Olivier, then even with their status as princesses, with such a great achievement, Nocturne would no longer be considered a reach for them.
But because of Shadow's interference, the original possibility was lost, and this made them understandably angry.
Olivier and Aurora could cooperate seamlessly because, at this moment, they are merely mirror images summoned by the Invocation Ceremony, and due to the mechanisms of the Holy Realm, they wouldn't turn against each other.
But Nocturne and Shadow are different; they are living people, and one is a member of the Crimson Knights, while the other is the leader of the Shadow Manor.
The two had clashed several times before and were almost like mortal enemies. How could they possibly cooperate in this situation?
"Alpha, what should we do now? Should we assist Shadow and Night Lord?"
Epsilon, hidden in the shadows, watched as Nocturne and Shadow were suppressed in the arena, and she anxiously asked the big sister beside her.
"Don't act rashly; our understanding of the Holy Realm is still limited.
If we enter the arena now, we might inadvertently reactivate the Summoning Ritual, and the situation could become even more chaotic and troublesome."
Alpha's concern was valid. After all, the Holy Realm could summon both Olivier and Aurora, and no one knew if this was their limit.
If they also joined the fray and the Holy Realm's trial ritual responded, the situation would truly spiral out of control.
"What about Shadow and Night Lord? Should I take action and capture that bald bishop, forcing him to shut down the Holy Realm? He's right next to me, leering creepily."
Beta, unable to bear watching Nocturne and Shadow being suppressed, spoke up.
"Don't be hasty; if it were them, they would definitely have a plan.
Don't you trust the power of those two? They will surely overcome this challenge."
In the current situation, Alpha indeed didn't have a better solution, so she could only ask the others to remain calm.
And almost at the same moment her words fell, the situation in the arena suddenly changed dramatically.
"Damn it, this is too troublesome! I don't care anymore!
Whether it's Shadow, Olivier, or the Cataclysmic Sorceress, I'll just take you all down right now!"
Nocturne, who was trapped in the wall, reached out and ripped off a wristband from his left arm! As soon as this seemingly ordinary and rustic wristband was removed, the entire arena began to shake violently!
Magical power, like seawater, gushed out of Nocturne as if a tidal wave had broken through.
The terrifying amount of magic power even formed a mana tide, temporarily increasing the magical essence in the surrounding air!
