This is most likely just my true nature but upon realizing who was behind that door that was being ganged up by these Dark World denizens, my mind just stopped thinking and my vision sohow darkened a bit.
I didn't notice this back then but this is also probably what happened when I heard about Fleur getting ambushed. It led to massacre a whole encampnt which… if I think about it logically, it has minimal gains that didn't even affect the next battle and more importantly, it lost a bit of a ti.
And the sa thing is happening right now, the Swordforce-covered Willful Sword has now been dyed red as I started to kill everyone I passed by, whether if they're injured or not.
The killing on the previous Zones or the previous battles was necessary as we didn't want them to follow our trails. However, at this mont, the most logical choice is to rush inside that passageway leading to the place behind that door to help Jayna… But what I'm currently doing is cleaning up these Mortal Ranks despite the fact that it wouldn't be late to take care of them later…
Why? I honestly have no idea or I am currently rejecting what's happening to . But since I already started this, I will just have to increase the pace, right?
Having arrived at that thought, I scanned my surroundings, the injured ones, the ones trying to treat them, the ones lining up to enter the place behind that tall door and the ones approaching the area from two different directions.
They're all the targets I have to clean up. To increase the pace, I activated Bedevilled Outburst. In a blink of an eye, nurous Energy Explosion Projectiles were conjured and combined together to produce five Purple Swords. Afterwards, I conjured five normal clones that produced their own Purple Swords before grabbing the ones I made, dual-wielding them.
Only leaving them with a one-word command, Kill, I cast the 6-nodes Void Elental Spell: Vanishing Steps and traversed the remaining distance from where I was to the tall door.
As my body traveled at a speed probably even faster than what a normal eye could perceive, my silhouette which remained for a mont blasted nurous Energy Explosion Projectiles to its left and right.
And just like that, 10 or more Mortal Ranks would fall dead either from the Energy Explosion Projectiles or from the clones that were not sparing anyone, even those who sohow managed to retain a bit of their breath after not dying from an Energy Explosion Projectiles
Also, right when I reappeared in the middle of the Mortal Ranks crowding at the entrance, I made one circular slash of the Willful Sword, lopping their heads off before they could react at my arrival.
Not waiting for their bodies or their heads to fall down to the ground, I jumped inside the small passageway which transported to the room behind the tall door.
[You entered Restriction Room 4]
[You're recognized by the Formation as an Intruder. A restriction will be imposed on you]
[You got an additional 10% Reduced Energy Output Restriction on top of the Zone's Imposed Restriction]
"Don't let her escape! Use another Chain against her when another chance appears!"
"Will it still work? She's already affected by two of those, not counting the restriction from the Zone and the Room! It's already a wonder why she could still fight against us."
"Stop asking questions and just do it! She's a Transcendent and we're not. We're already lucky enough that she got hit by the Chains. If not for that and the existence of Sir Brave taking most of her attacks, we would be counting our corpses by now. Hurry up!"
Along with the screams of burnt Mortal Ranks falling down to the ground, that conversation was clearly heard by .
The place is not like the previous passageway, it's circular with a do-shaped roof. There were various small Formations that were arranged in a circle inside the room, imposing more restrictions on anyone who would step inside it.
I glanced up and saw Jayna's struggling appearance, the Earthfire which she conjured has started to dwindle which probably indicated how her Energy was about to run out. The miniature Spirit Ocean of hers was also nowhere to be seen. No matter, how I look at it, she's on her last legs.
Again… If I didn't take my ti to investigate each and every fork on the road I passed, I would've arrived early. And if I just ignored those Mortal Ranks outside and pushed my way inside, she would probably be in a much better condition.
I have to take so ti and understand why I am doing that later. That has to stop. I kept talking about them being my highest priority but why do I keep wasting ti on unnecessary killings? My Dark Persona? Yeah, right.
That's the only explanation and I'm trying to reject it. I really have to explore that part of that I kept on restricting. I let it run wild only on two occasions but that's probably not enough. It's projecting itself on tis that I needed to do sothing I perceived as more truly important.
Haa… Let's stop thinking about this and focus on what's in front of .
Not counting those who fell down, there are more than 50 of the Mortal Ranks around Rank 4 and 5 and a lone Transcendent attacking the girl covered in Energy Restricting Equipnt.
The Transcendent that is probably the 'Sir Brave' they're talking about has a tal blunt weapon on his hand which looked like a boat paddle. I have no idea why he chose that as a weapon. It's covered by his Dark Energy as well as a type of Weaponforce, most likely a Bluntforce.
He was charging it up and was preparing another skill to unleash towards Jayna that was busy deflecting and counter-attacking the Mortal Ranks that's surrounding her.
Apart from the Earthfire which continuously burns those Mortal Ranks it could reach, her conjured vines and her Nature Nymph form were about to fade away.
"You people have done it..."
I sneered and blurted that out loud to catch all of their attention. That's not the entire reason, of course. Even if I tried to deny it, rage has already started to burn inside .
"Another one? Heh. Ignore him and kill the girl, he will have to think twice before entering here. And if he did, just throw chains around him. Let's see if he can dodge it."
The Transcendent sneered back and turned his attention back to Jayna.
He's that confident at this formation of them, eh? Is he an idiot or what? Despite having my Energy Output restricted, my senses could still pick up most of the energy fluctuation from the Formation Core and Nodes of their activated traps.
Just recalling about the natural Formation where Jayna's Earthfire Essence was embedded before, it's easy to deactivate a trap as long as one knows its chanism. Even the Elental Formation in this world followed the sa principle.
So as soon as they turn their head back to Jayna, Energy Explosion Projectiles shoot straight towards the exposed traps, reducing their effects.
When they felt that, the Transcendent glared at hatefully before shouting.
"Stop that guy from destroying the traps! And you! Hurry up and attack the girl!"
Jayna already noticed ever since I arrived. However, her energy was really spent and she could only send a weak smile. Even the glimr of her eyes only glowed slightly.
Ignoring what the Transcendent shouted, I entered the circle and was instantly put under the restriction of the traps.
With the Nullification Zone activated, none of the effects reached . It could nullify the effect of the Formation those four Transcendents activated, there's no way little Trap Formations could affect .
Controlling myself to only think of one thing, saving Jayna, I ignored those who turned their attention to and sent various attacks. Flying past them, I targeted the Mortal Ranks who's about to attack her as well as the Transcendent whose Paddle weapon was in the process of unleashing a Skill.
Energy Explosion Projectile for the Mortal Ranks and the Swordforce-covered Lightning Dragon towards the Transcendents.
Probably due to a Transcendent's intuition, he felt the visible danger at his back which was carried by how I furiously wielded my Flux Energy.
The Transcendent hurriedly turned around and directed the skill he was supposed to use against Jayna to the Lightning Dragon and retreated for a full 50 ters, his face showing his exasperation at what just happened. However, he instantly recovered from his stupor and roared furiously at .
"Damn you! Ruining my chance!"
If one looked closely, I appeared truly calm on the surface. However, I know that I'm currently seething with rage. Enough rage to desire of cutting them all to tiny pieces.
However, this rage was also telling to ignore Jayna's current predicant and let loose on what I wanted to do to them. And that's sothing I don't want to do.
I severely bit my lower lip and let it bleed to let have a rational thought through experiencing the pain.
Before satisfying this rage I am feeling, I have to make sure that Jayna is out of danger first.
With that thought fully occupying my mind after a bout of pain from my bleeding lip, I ignored the screaming Transcendent and the Mortal Ranks trying to catch .
Traversing the last few ters of distance, I hastily threw the Willful Sword towards the Rank 5 Mortal that was about to stab her, disregarding the result whether it was successful or not. I reached my hand and grabbed Jayna by her waist. Soon afterwards, I promptly activated a simple Flash Step Spell directed to the ground.
"Daisuke… Stop making that scary face."
