Chapter 434: A threat to the Nyx family?
“Nice try.” Blake said as he put back Ebony and Ivory in his dinsional pocket and threw a void dagger at Damon who was retreating.
Having been with Blake for almost 3 years, Damon knew almost every trick of the void daggers. He knew there was no point in blocking or dodging because as long as it passed through that area, Blake knew the spatial location and could open a spatial corridor.
Shadow Jump!
Damon sank into his shadow and rose from Blake’s shadow behind Blake, but that was he saw another void dagger coming at him.
“Give a break!” Damon cursed Blake’s persistence as he deflected the void dagger with a lightning bolt.
“Got you!” Blake said as he opened 3 spatial tears. One at Damon’s previous location, one at Damon’s current location and the last which he thrust Ebony into.
For shadow jump to work there needed to be a shadow within a certain range before he could jump.
.....
Also, shadow path was useless because it slows down the body only when it was directly in contact with the shadow path. In this case, it was just Ebony coming at him.
“You wish!” Damon smirked as the lightning bolt used to deflect the void dagger made the dagger’s shadow large enough for him to shadow jump.
Imdiately Damon popped out of the dagger’s shadow, he cast shadow path before distancing himself from Blake.
“Finally!” Damon let out a sigh of relief as he began to assess the situation.
‘I am still not fast enough and I have no clue how he is able to sense even with darkbringer active.’ Damon thought.
‘I guess I have no other choice.’ Damon said as he activate his darkness artifact. Both his armor and darkness artifact amplified darkness spells, so when he activated night mist, it began filling the battlefield that was as big as an Arican football field.
The only way to counter night mist was to leave its range of effect, but there was no place to go.
“Ti to end this.” Damon activated the fear factor of the night mist.
‘Seems like he has gotten serious.’ Blake thought as he was amid the black mist, but that was when the battlefield changed to his ho back on Earth.
‘Let it not be what I think it is.’ Blake thought as he saw the door handle broken and the door wide open.
Before Blake could enter the house, Ivory lit up dispelling the illusion.
‘Thanks.’ Blake thanked Ivory as he continued to stand still faking being trapped in the illusion.
When Damon ca in front of him and slashed with a black curved blade, Blake finally moved. He dodge the attack before grabbing onto Damon left hand and pulling him closer.
‘How?!!!!’ Damon was utterly confused as he received a blow to the abdon.
‘Darkbringer, nightshade artifact, night mist, and illusions. So how is he still able to sense ?’ Damon was perplexed as he was slamd headfirst into the ground.
“As I said, it doesn’t make any difference.” Blake said as he stabbed Damon with Ebony causing a golden barrier to envelope him.
Right from the first ti Blake had seen Damon fight, he had been thinking of ways to counter the darkness elent. Luckily he had the system and Ebony and Ivory.
Illusions were useless against Blake thanks to the passive ability of Ivory, the sa went for the darkness elent.
Spells like night mist that rendered the senses of the body useless did not affect the system. The system only needed Blake’s vision to record mories, so the black mist was no different from the concealing effects of darkbringer.
...
Inside the luxurious booth of Councilor Jaeger Nyx, not only was he alone but it was completely dark just like he liked it.
‘Still being able to sense him with only darkbringer active is not a problem. The question is how he could do so even with night shade active.’ Damon’s dad was shocked by the outco.
“Any info on how he could do that?” Jaeger asked as a shadow rose at one of the corners of the luxurious booth.
“During their stay in the magic school, he had rarely gone against either young master or the other one. As for the ti they have t, Prince Luciano had dealt with it using an artifact.” The shadow reported.
“What of the other councilors, do they know anything about it?” Jaeger asked.
“No, they are also clueless.” The shadow reported.
“Hmm”
Jaeger was concerned about the event that just unfolded because the Nyx family were in control of the darkness elent in the Synder Empire. So soone that could sohow counter the darkness elent and even darkness artifacts was a danger to them.
Not only could he share the info with the other ancient families which would in turn weaken their strength and power, but he would be a problem if he decide to go against them.
‘The only option I can think of is that Prince Bryon gave him an artifact.’ Jaeger thought.
“Dismissed.” Jaeger said as the shadow instantly vanished.
...
Back at the lobby, the match was just over and Serhan watched as both Blake and Damon returned to the lobby.
‘I shouldn’t be surprised, he is always full of surprises.’ Serhan thought after recalling how Blake won without taking a single hit.
“Next match Serhan vs Lucas.” The host’s announcent snapped Serhan out of his reverie.
‘No matter who I was paired against, I would still lose.’ Serhan thought as he let out a helpless sigh. He was the least ranked person in both schools, and even the 2nd lowest which was Castiel would beat him thanks to the darkness elent.
‘Let’s just hope I don’t get defeated in less than a minute.’ Serhan thought as he walked up to the platform that took him to the center of the arena.
