City of Desire Novel Chapter 343: End of Lich II

Lich Savais

“How can this be?” I asked, as the revelation hit . It is so, shocking that my soul begins to shake.

Entertainnt Legacies don’t cast spells. I had never heard of one capable of casting it. The legacies that could cast spells are extrely rare.

Most of them are magic towers and a few are arenas and so other things. They are extrely rare. In this entire continent of Zenid, where there are nearly a hundred legacies and only two are capable of it.

The archmage tower is a pri example. It is a terror; it is considered the most powerful legacy, after the three titans.

Now, this bastard’s legacy is shooting the spells, and they are powerful, Grade III spells, despite their structure being a Grade II. They shouldn’t have been able to jump the grade, but they are sohow doing it.

I cald my turbulent emotions and began to think rationally.

A second later, a smile appeared on my face. Even, the powerful urge to escape had vanished my heart and also the feeling to kill him.

I really like to kill the bastard, but him being alive is more important to .

His deathless would be extrely pleased by the news. I wanted to send the ssage imdiately, but I did not.

I am high enough in a hierarchy that nobody would read the ssage sent by

directly to his deathless, but there are always people taking risks and I have no dearth of enemies that would like to see

fall.

The news is too big. Its value is imnse.

It would be a great idiocy to let others know of this news. I need to tell him the news personally to get the greatest benefits. If I played my cards right, then I might be able to get the specially forged body from his deathless; it will help

trendously.

I have to contain the news and defeat this bastard without killing him, which wouldn’t be easy.

Till now, it had defended against all my attacks. It seed like, I would really need to use my trump spells. Which ca with another problem, the energy to cast them.

I am quite low on it. Less than 15% of it had remained.

Usually, it is not a problem for

as I continue to get a constant supply of it from my phylactery. If I really need it, I could also pull it from the undead or the environnt of heavy death.

The bastard has used the power of his legacy to stop the energy coming at .

There is also a large of death mana here, but the bastard is denying it to . He is also preventing

from taking mana from the undead. If I had access to energy, I wouldn’t have been worried about using my trump spells.

Hun!

I was in my thoughts when suddenly I saw the ice spears coming, shining in radiant light.

I was surprised to see the attack. It was the first ti he had used an offensive spell; it seed like he was getting desperate. He might not show it, but a person smart like him clearly understood the consequences of his secret.

Dark Frost Shield

My staff lit up, and the shield appeared in front of . The attack is powerful for a Grade 3 spell, but I am High-Mage and even with suppressions, my spells are more than strong enough to effortlessly defend against it.

Bang Bang Bang

The spells clashed against the shield and scattered into the dust. I could see his expressions turning worse.

I smiled, but a mont later, my expression turned somber, and cast, the first of my trump spells.

Soul Freeze.

It is a Grade IV spell of death and soul elent. My most powerful spell, through which I had killed a Grand Mage.

It is a spell exclusive to Liches. The necromancers could cast it, but they couldn’t bring out the power as we could. We are experts in soul and our souls are stronger, with greater attunent to the death elent.

I am being extrely careful with it; I don’t want to kill the golden egg.

It seed to sense it and tried to move, while defensive spells appeared around him. I was surprised to see, that they soul defensive spell.

They are powerful and have enough numbers that they would have been able to stop the spell. If it had been cast by the necromancer, but mine is stronger. It was from his deathless’s collection and all the spells in it are powerful.

It is very good against such defensive spells.

The invisible attack reached the shields and crushed through one shield after another. By the ti, it had reached the bastard; it still had over 50% of its power.

Hun!

I could see the horror on his face as his face as the attack struck him. Seeing that, a smile appeared on my face, but it remained there only for a second before it froze when I saw the horror on his face turned to grin.

“I had expected the soul attack from the lich to be powerful, but it is just so-so,” he mocked, making my heart burn in anger.

I was able to control it barely.

“How were you able to deal with the attack?” I asked, to which the grin on his face beca bigger.

“You will know soon enough,” he replied, and I wanted to kill the bastard and this ti, I didn’t control my anger and cast my second trump spell.

Soul Spikes!

I saw invisible spikes of the soul elent materialize. It is an area spell, but I am concentrating it all on him. This ti, I didn’t care whether I would seriously injure him. If he gets injured, his deathless will heal him.

He sensed the attack, and the shields appeared around him to protect him, but the spikes tore through the shields around him, before reaching him.

I watched him as the spikes hit him, but there was barely any reaction from him.

“It seed like; I had underestimated you,” I said with my teeth clattering, looking into his smug eyes.

The spells didn’t hit him but ended up costing

a lot of energy.

“For it, you will pay with your life,” he said and began to take a step toward . Till now, he had always maintained the distance between us, but now he is walking toward

with no fear in his eyes.

I felt fear for the first ti and that turned into rage. Now, I didn’t care about the consequences anymore.

I am going to use that spell despite the cost and dangers. It will kill him or turn him into a vegetable, but I don’t care. The only thing, I care about is wiping that smug smile off his face.

Soul Drain!

I cast my strongest spell and imdiately felt the weakness as a small part of

was cut by the spell, but it powered the spell. So much that the smug smile on the enemy’s face had wiped out.

You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.

Multiple shields appeared around him, but just as they appeared, they turned to dust. They had not even lasted for a mont before being destroyed.

The spell hit him, and I saw his expression change to pain. I expected him to scream raw, but he just gritted his teeth and blood ca out of his eyes and nose as he looked at .

“I have to say; the spell is quite strong. It had injured , and I will return the gift by reaping your life,” he said with a bloody smile, and sothing appeared in his hand.

Seeing it, my eyes couldn’t help but widen, and I cast Haste and Ghost Wind imdiately to run as far away from that thing, as before he activated it.

I had been an idiot; I should have guessed when he defended against my soul attacks.

Only they are powerful enough to defend against our attacks. They are one of a few people that his deathless had warned us to be careful of.

I need to get away from the bastard as soon as possible.

I had even cast the ssage. I didn’t even care about the news spreading, I needed to inform the deathless as soon as possible.

Hun!

I cast the ssage spell, and imdiately my expression changed when I saw the ssage repelled back to .

“Fucking witches!” I cursed and ran even faster when I felt sothing enveloping .

“Oh, no!” I said with fear filling my heart as I felt my power decreasing.

Grade 4 spells that were mine to cast felt restricted. I know, I would not be able to cast them in a short ti and that scared

to death.

I felt a genuine fear for the first ti since I stepped into this wasteland.

….

The charm burned with the activation and covered the lich. I felt its effect on the lich as it began to slow down rapidly. Its Grade 4 spells disappearing, and it won’t be able to cast another one for a few minutes.

There are three spells that Caena had given . One, she had given

one while activated two with her own hands in the afternoon.

The first spell is of the soul protection, which she considered paramount. According to her, my legacy is entwined with my soul. All legacies are, but mine is at a much deeper level.

It is why, even if soone cast a Grade 6 spell on the establishnt and turned it into dust. It will remain unaffected.

It won’t matter if the enemy destroys every inch of my legacy. It will remain as long as I am alive. No harm will co to it, even if my enemies had destroyed a hundred shells; it will not do anything.

In her words. I am the true legacy.

The second spell was the communication blockade. I had asked her to craft this spell. It is only covering the establishnt.

It is to protect my biggest secret.

Enemies would only realize the truth here when I am against them alone, and that could only happen here. It is very hard on the battlefield with tens of mages; they would not guess even in their dreams that legacy is casting the spell.

The third one, I had activated. It is a powerful suppression spell.

Caena isn’t weak, she is as strong as this lich. She had told , she had crossed Lv. 30, before her class upgraded and regressed in level, but not in power.

The Lich had turned to Mage from High-Mage. His spells are as strong as mine now.

The reason I had waited so long and spent so much emotion essence was because Stone had told , to do it after it had spent a lot of its energy. It will give

a better chance of killing it, compared to when it was at its full strength.

Even at Grade III. Dealing with it wouldn’t be an easy kill. It, being low on energy will make things much easier.

Sup Sup Sup!

The lich reacted imdiately and sent bone lances toward , while Bone Construct also ca at , but their speed was much slower than before.

Bang Bang Bang!

I looked at the lances, and the shields appeared in front of

and the smile on my face.

I had fought with it, but I have not revealed my full spells and all tricks of my establishnt.

It is ti; I show that, and I am doing it sa ti.

Blessing of Dusk X 6. Radiance of Dusk X 6. Sword of Dusk X 6.

I activated eighteen divine spells at once, and I activated it right at it, barely an inch away from its skin, or rather the bones.

saying it is my domain; it is not just the pretty words. It is the truth.

I could activate the spell at any place, by passing the field of presence. That is around every person, it is especially powerful among mages, and it is extrely difficult to cast a spell close to them, but I am casting it to an inch.

Even that inch wouldn’t have remained. If not for the difference in level.

It sensed the attraction and was able to cast spells. The spells that hadn't fully ford and were being suppressed. It didn’t take much effort for my spells to break through them and strike the Lich.

Ahhhhhh!

The lich had stopped in its tracks and scread.

Eighteen divine spells are too much; a well-hit single spell could do good damage and there are eighteen. They are of the divine elent, the anathema of the undead.

Blessing of Dusk X 6. Radiance of Dusk X 6. Sword of Dusk X 6.

I didn’t waste any seconds, or care for the cost before I hit it with another eighteen spells. I don’t want to take any chances; I like to finish the bastard as soon as possible.

Hun!

I reached close, but not too close as I watched the lich burn in the divine energy, when I sensed sothing.

Its body fell down, but I am not looking at it. I am looking at the soul floating above. It had sacrificed the body to save the soul.

The soul is invisible to normal eyes but in my domain. It is clear as the day.

‘You will pay for this bastard. I will tell his deathless everything. You just watch how he will turn your life into hell!’ he threatened in a ghostly voice and moved at incredible speed.

“You will not!” I said and an iron-grey planet, with faint translucent silver, appeared in front of .

I gently tapped on it.

Imdiately, the plant covered the whole territory of the establishnt, before shrinking and appearing in front of

as before.

Though now it is not empty anymore. There is sothing inside.

I looked inside the planet and saw the lich bound by hundreds of iron-silvery translucent chains, screaming, struggling to get away.
