Chapter 85
Hi everyone! Please check out the Co for a chat, ask questions, or just have fun~
Kim Sae-Jin slowly approached the back of Hazeline who was busy glaring at the nine humanoid figures covered in a veil of darkness, her current face stiff. Sensing his approach, she extended her arm out and stopped him there.
"...I’m sorry, Mister Sae-Jin. This is all because of . I’ll finish this up as soon as possible, so please, take a step back."
"No, wait a min..."
"Hush. Be quiet now."
Her misunderstanding continued on as she began drawing deep breaths.
"Since you didn’t react, I guess you’re not from the Mafia, either? Then, maybe you’re from Yakuza?" (Hazeline)
There was no reply this ti as well. It was obvious why - they were not ’human’ to begin with. Their rotten sll of blood tickling Sae-Jin’s nostrils proved that much.
"..."
Without replying back to her, all nine of them began chanting a spell at the sa ti. Seeing this, Hazeline bit her lip and then, chanted her own spell as well.
Right away, black-coloured lava powerfully rose up behind her, before forming a massive, lengthy spear that buzzed noisily while floating in the air. Near the constantly burning surface of the spear, space seed to distort around as the air itself was busy lting all around it.
It was the Mana Spear.
The spell where its caster ford a spear with Mana, its sole purpose was to destroy and kill its target. Rated as one of the highest-class attack magic spells, not only the caster needed to pour in a great deal of Mana, he or she also needed to possess excellent Magic Strength - ability to control Mana - in order to maintain the shape of the spear as well as its elental properties.
This spell was powerful enough to be used as the greatest trump card that could theoretically contend against a true dragon, depending on the ability of the caster.
"If you’re scared, then you better get lost now. I do not wish to worsen our relationship any further than it already is. If we can resolve this with dialogue, wouldn’t it be simpler for both of us that way?"
Hazeline confidently grinned, as the Mana Spear split into nine and targeted all nine figures while buzzing in the air.
That grin could last only for 10 seconds.
The reason for that was the strange ’wave’ spreading out from beneath the feet of the Vampires. Spreading around like a raging black torrent, this wave thing reached out until arriving at a certain diater, then rose up in a do shape, separating and enclosing the space they were in from the rest of the world.
This was a spell Sae-Jin was quite familiar with: the isolation barrier.
"...Huh?!" (Hazeline)
Of course, as an A-ranked Wizard, Hazeline had experienced her share of barriers before. But at this mont, she could not hide her astonishnt.
As soon as this barrier finished forming, the sizes of the black Mana Spears began to gradually shrink rapidly, all the while she felt the flow of Mana within her body slow down as well.
At this unexpected turn of events, she quickly scanned her surroundings and gritted her teeth.
"What kind of trickery is this?!"
Vampires didn’t bother to answer her, even this ti. Instead, from behind their back, a small and dark-reddish rift in the space opened up; from there, dozens of tentacles exploded out. These things slapped away the Mana Spears and flung themselves at Hazeline’s location.
Right in that mont when those grotesque-looking tentacles and their sharp edges were about to cut into her neck...
Five lines of slashes, coming from unexpected ’claws’, glead coldly in the air as the tentacles were sliced apart, turning to powder before dissipating into the wind.
Only then did the nine Vampires show so signs of being agitated.
"This f***ing.... Pant, pant..." (Hazeline)
Sensing the approach of death for the first ti after a
long, long while, Hazeline broke out in cold sweat, her breathing ragged and shallow.
"These crazy sons of b***hes have gone completely bonkers insane. Resorting to using sh*tty black magic... huh?"
Hazeline began pointing accusatory fingers at the Vampires while growling like a wounded animal, only to have a strong hand powerfully rein her back in from behind.
"...Miss Hazeline. Please calm down first. We are at a disadvantage here. Do you know of the ways to disable a barrier like this?"
Sae-Jin looked at her with a hardened face. Sensing the overall strengths of the nine suddenly-appearing Vampires via the Wolf’s intuition, he couldn’t help but feel flustered here. In the Human Form, there was just no way he’d be able to fight against all of them at the sa ti.
"I’ve never seen a barrier like this before. It must be from the school of black magic, but... I’m truly sorry. Because of , even Mister Sae-Jin has..."
Hazeline’s misunderstanding hadn’t alleviated just yet, and thus she was feeling apologetic towards Sae-Jin as a result. Seeing her like this, so of the tension in him lightened up, causing him to smile weakly and nod his head.
"It’s fine. I’ll do my best to buy us ti, so please, look for a way to..."
Unfortunately for the two, these Vampires weren’t polite enough to give them ti to formulate a response.
