Chapter 1264: Golden Aura
『Kuh! I screwed up again!』
（Sorry. The black lightning was a bit too strong.）
『Sorry! This ti it’s my mistake!』
（Master, next try.）
『Ah! Maybe the divine aura was too weak!』
（Mrgh. Controlling the Elental Sword is hard…）
Fran and I were experiencing repeated failures upon trying the “mix everything” strategy.
In the first place, evil energy was practically an antithesis to divine energy and the purification attribute. They tended to cancel each other out when mixed. I honestly have no clue if it’s even possible to combine them without diminishing their effects. Adding black lightning to the mix only increases the difficulty exponentially.
（But I know you can do it, Master.）
『Are you sure?』
（Nn! You made such delicious curry by mixing spices, so you’ll definitely be able to mix types of mana too!）
『…Eh? Are those really comparable?』
Is that why Fran had such confidence in …?
『A-Aren’t curry and mana are a bit different?』
（No way.）
『R-Really? Well, I guess I am the Apostle of Chaos, so if anyone can mix these, it’s gotta be ! Probably.』
（Nn! Your mixing skills are super amazing.）
To tell the truth, I think I might be getting the hang of this.
We’ve previously managed to create evil-divine energy, as well as envelop it with black lightning. The reason for the difficulty is the addition of the purification attribute, which isn’t very compatible with evil energy. Combining should theoretically be possible though.
Or rather, I feel like I can do it.
It’s just my intuition, but I think it can work. I decided to observe the flow of magical power and concentrate even further.
The flow is clearer now than it was a mont ago! Also, the Chaos Knowledge skill is reacting intensely. It seems this skill helps view mana too, not just stuff related to the Chaos Goddess. Or perhaps it’s working because the mana is so mixed and chaotic?
I half-jokingly ntioned about being the Apostle of Chaos, but it seems that wasn’t far from the mark. Now that I could see things clearly, I also understood the problems.
『Fran, I think we can pull it now. Can I leave the divine energy to you instead? In return, I’ll take care of the purification attribute.』
（Does that make a difference?）
『Yeah. According to what I see with Chaos Knowledge, your divine aura has better affinity with other attributes.』
We started with handling evil and divine energy because I had succeeded in creating evil-divine energy. However, it seems this affinity part is more important.
Moreover, Fran seed better at handling divine energy due to her being recognized by the Beast-Bug God. Her mana simply has less repulsion to other elents.
It seems divine energy behaves differently depending on the source.
（Got it. Let try.）
Fran mixed divine energy and black lightning, cloaking in a power similar to Black Lightning Divine Claw. I then infused my evil energy and purification-attributed mana.
Just as I thought. Thanks to Fran’s stable divine energy, it’s easier to control than before. I gathered the four different powers and began fusing them more thoroughly.
Well, this is probably an impossible task that will leave ordinary people crying in pain, but I don’t have any sense of pain.
『Guh…』
Still, I felt the chills for the first ti in a while! The burden seems to be higher than I imagined.
Both Naless and Laranflura are monsters, to put it mildly. They’ll clearly overwhelm us in a battle of attrition if we don’t find a way to put them down for good.
That being the case, we need to find an attack that works, no matter how much we have to push ourselves.
『Uwooooooogh!』
（Master! Amazing! You did it! Aweso!）
『We did it!』
My blade began emanating a golden aura.
With such trendous presence and force, I beca convinced. We really pulled it off!
『Fran, I can’t hold it for long! We need to finish this quickly!』
「Nn!」
Naless currently had his back turned to us. The Hero Zombies must have launched a fierce attack to divert his attention. However, I believe he’s still aware of our presence. That’s how much composure he had.
Which ans he’s confident in his abilities to evade despite exposing his back.
In the first place, Naless is undead, so he doesn’t need physical eyes to see things. He undoubtedly has the ability to overview his surroundings, similar to .
But we had no ti to waste on such precautions. The stability of the golden aura was already starting to crumble. It won’t last another 10 seconds.
『Fran, rush all the way in. The rest of us will seal his movents!』
（Got it.）
I noticed Naless getting tense, which ans he understands how dangerous I am to him.
Despite parrying Yuvel and Begareth’s attacks, Naless refused to divert attention from . Not good, because we can’t afford to let him dodge.
However, this was the perfect job for our stealth specialist.
『Urushi! It’s your turn!』
「Grrr!」
「Kuh! This damn dog! Where did…!」
If Urushi really focuses on hiding, he can evade even Naless’s detection, especially during a fight.
Moreover, Urushi jumped out from Yuvel’s shadow instead of Naless’s shadow this ti. Blending in with Yuvel’s powerful aura served to further conceal his presence.
Naless was forced to pause with Urushi biting down on him. Exploiting that opening, Fran and I pinned him down with Guardian Deity’s Shield and telekinesis.
「Gwoh! What’s this!」
Even with his leg crushed by Urushi’s bite, Naless attempted to quickly regenerate and defend against Fran’s attack. However, he beca completely immobilized when caught in our invisible barrier.
I’m sure he can break himself out soon enough, but it’s already too late.
Because Fran was already in the middle of her swing.
「Teyaaaaah! Curry Slash!」
『Eh?』
H-Hold on a second! T-That na…!
