Chapter 321: The Clash Between Shadow and Nocturne Begins Again
Chapter 321: The Clash Between Shadow and Nocturne Begins Again
Just as Nocturne Omiga was about to retrieve the second seal of ancient magical artifact, an overwhelming surge of mana burst forth.
The large blood-red sphere that Aurora had trapped Shadow within now displayed intricate patterns resembling electrical wiring, covering its entire surface.
"Crack—!"
A sound like shattering glass echoed, and the blood-red sphere containing Shadow suddenly shattered like an eggshell, revealing Shadow holding a longsword within.
Not only did Shadow break free from Aurora's trap, but a barrier resembling a mana barrier enveloped the entire area, extending from the ground to the sky.
Grid-like patterns, similar to those on the blood-red sphere, now covered the entire space.
When the audience saw the mana barrier covering the arena, Alexia Larecsia, seated in the spectator stands, was so terrified that she slumped to the ground.
Alexia had witnessed Shadow's ability once before, during the incident in the royal capital's underground sewers when Shadow defeated Jeno Gulifi.
Previously, her sister Alice had believed that Shadow borrowed the power of ancient magical artifacts, but now it seemed entirely different.
If Alexia's memory served her right, Shadow's technique, known as "Atomic Annihilation," had once destroyed half of the royal capital!
"I am atomic..."
As Shadow raised his longsword, preparing to unleash Atomic Annihilation to eliminate Aurora and Olivier, a figure with astonishing speed suddenly appeared before him.
In an instant, Shadow's handsome face was imprinted with a shoe print, size 42, and his body was kicked away at an incredible velocity by Nocturne.
The one who intervened was neither Olivier nor Aurora but Nocturne, whose body was enveloped in an overwhelming aura of mana.
"Shadow, have you gone mad?! Using Atomic Annihilation here?!
Don't forget that my mother, Medis, and your sister, Kreaya, are still in the audience stands!
And what if your 'Atomic Annihilation' destroys the entire Sacred Realm?! Damn it, just stay put and watch; I'll handle the rest."
Nocturne, having obtained the second magical seal, now possessed an absurd amount of mana, and a Mage Swordsman's strength was directly proportional to their mana.
The current Nocturne could even defeat both Olivier and Aurora simultaneously, a feat not beyond his capabilities.
As Nocturne kicked Shadow away, Aurora, floating in the air, launched an attack on Nocturne.
Similar to her previous encounter with Shadow, magical arrays appeared behind Aurora, and blood-red chains shot out from her back.
"You're not the only one who can use chain attacks.
In this world, light becomes chains, and souls become bonds, binding all evil!
Interdimensional Chains of Binding!"
As Aurora's blood-red chains wrapped around him, Nocturne extended an arm.
Substantialized mana gathered and formed in the air, and soon, blue chains made of mana shot out, following the same trajectory as Aurora's blood-red chains.
The blood-red and blue chains collided in mid-air, causing a violent surge of mana.
At that moment, a figure suddenly appeared at the side of Nocturne Omiga and swung a holy sword towards him.
Undoubtedly, this sudden figure was none other than Olivier.
Whether it was Aurora or Olivier, even though their strength wasn't at its peak in their current mana mirror state, they still possessed the corresponding combat instincts and awareness.
So, even though Nocturne Omiga had only shown a tiny flaw, Olivier was able to seize the opportunity in an instant.
Of course, it wasn't just them who possessed rich combat experience and awareness. With the accumulation of multiple worlds, Nocturne Omiga naturally wouldn't lose to anyone in terms of combat instincts and experience.
Seeing Olivier appear suddenly at his side, Nocturne Omiga didn't show a hint of panic; instead, he slightly curled his lips.
The flaw he had revealed was intentional, with the purpose of luring Olivier into his trap.
"Thundering Carriage, Spinning Wheel's Gap, Light Split into Six! Interdimensional Six Pillars of Light Prison!"
As if he had anticipated Olivier's appearance, Nocturne Omiga merely stretched out his hand, and six pure light fragments composed of mana gathered from all directions, pinning Olivier's figure in mid-air.
Just as Nocturne Omiga was about to send Olivier away with a swiftly condensed Light Sword, a pitch-black figure suddenly rushed towards him.
"Clang—!"
The mana-constructed Light Sword collided with the black slime-condensed Magic Longsword in the air, creating a powerful shockwave that instantly formed an air wave, lifting the surrounding ground!
"Nocturne Omiga, you dare to kick my face!"
Needless to say, the person who suddenly appeared at this critical moment to cause trouble was undoubtedly Lord Shadow.
In the past, Nocturne Omiga and Lord Shadow had often engaged in playful fights, and being hit or kicked by each other was a common occurrence.
However, the key point now was that they were under the watchful eyes of the public, and for Lord Shadow, who placed great importance on his image, this was unacceptable.
He was currently using the alias "Shadow" and striving to become a "Shadow Power Seeker." To be kicked away in public like this, did he have no face to lose?
"Stop blabbering, you late-stage chuunibyou. Your interference will only make things worse, so I should be the one to..."
"You're quite bold, Nocturne Omiga. My 'Atomic Annihilation' just now was clearly controlled in power, and with Alpha and you here, there's no way the audience could have been in danger.
I think you're just trying to steal the glory, afraid that I'll defeat Aurora and Olivier first and take all the credit."
Before Nocturne Omiga could finish his sentence, Lord Shadow interrupted him, seemingly believing that Nocturne Omiga was trying to upstage him.
"I'm not some attention-seeking king like you, always thinking about being flashy. I wouldn't even be here if it weren't for Alpha's request. I don't give a damn about this Goddess Trial."
As Olivier was about to break free from the 'Six Staff Light Prison,' Nocturne Omiga slashed Lord Shadow away with his sword, signaling him not to interfere.
"It seems we'll have to settle things between us before dealing with Aurora and Olivier and see who's worthy of being their opponent."
