"Lyonel, they were watching me, I mean, James Moriarty. They’ve probably lost the connection; we have to be quick, or the attack might start," Altair had said."It already did. We got the news for it but also..." said Lyonel and continued."We got the news from Lady Karina. They’ve found about 80% of the mana bombs with a tiny bit of gunpowder."Altair felt relieved at these words.Yet another fear had taken root in his heart.Before the young man could even ask his question, the answer to that fear had already reached him."No one knows where the rest are. They, as the Church of the Night, captured two nobles. It seems they were foolish enough to reveal the locations of the bombs within their own circles. We managed to get the locations. But the remaining 20%... we have no idea."When Altair spoke these words, he wondered why he had still not received a reply or a report from Aether.A 20% mana bomb reserve wouldn’t merely cause a normal explosion in a place as unimaginably vast as t

Altair had fallen behind and, in an instant, had unleashed Holy Fire, spreading it all around.He had begun to heal every friendly soldier, whether wounded, with limbs severed or intact.At that moment, Altair felt a pressure bearing down on him.Though not massive, an average-sized mana wave was advancing towards him, and on top of that, an aura just as large had begun to move towards him.The young man turned towards the source of these two waves of power.At that moment, he saw a mage who had stopped advancing towards him and had begun casting a spell, and a figure clad in heavy armour, surrounded by an aura.In an instant, Altair used his Magic Sword ability, coating his sword with Ice Fire, and lunged forward.Using his Hyper Charge ability to increase his speed, he had covered his legs and arms with his aura for extra support.Consequently, whilst he was radiating a death aura, a pitch-black fire spread out from him, and his sword, which seemed to draw in the light, glowed as if

"Archive of War!"At Leonard’s shout, the colossal mana spear that had coalesced had descended upon him and clung to him.The old man had swung the spear westwards just once."KRSHHHH-TZAAAM!!!"The mana wave had swept across an area of nearly five kilometres at an incredible speed.It had obliterated everything in its path.Leonard had fallen to one knee and was breathing deeply.The old man himself was someone who had managed to climb as high as the upper levels of Aculon.Of course, this also meant he was one of those whose power had been restricted by Aculon.The old man had pushed himself to the limit.Altair had wanted to see an area of 20 kilometres.Even so, a five-kilometre radius would help him.The young man kept watching this five-kilometre-wide strip and had actually managed to see it there.This time, he had paid closer attention and had seen it.It was a mana stone glowing a vivid purple, burning as if it were a flame.Altair turned directly to Arthur and shouted, “Prot

Altair’s attack had created an area with a diameter of almost thirty metres where it struck.The area was ablaze with pitch-black, golden and pure white flames.Beneath them, a pitch-black zone had formed.Death itself, its energy and aura, was rising upwards.Every magical beast had begun to panic.As they panicked, they began to collide with one another; those already ablaze began to set others alight.Within a short time, they had begun to bring about their own demise.This was an army of a thousand magical beasts.There were over twenty thousand noble soldiers and tens of thousands more magical beasts to be dealt with...When the young man leapt into the midst of the monsters, he began cutting them down one by one.On one hand, he was hurling Selene’s Hunting Knife; on the other, he was swinging the Space Cutter.Occasionally, he would conjure a few ice spells and try to block the sudden attacks coming his way.The young man was still somewhat inexperienced, but at least he manage

As the young man opened his palms, everyone’s attention was drawn to him.Altair would expend every last shred of his mana to fully heal every person who had been brought back, and those who were still on the brink of death.This was a colossal mistake.He would use his power down to the very last drop, and with his aura already at a low level, depleting his mana to such an extent would do him no good, but harm.“Holy Fire,” the young man thought suddenly. He had not used his ability directly as a skill.He had circulated his own mana through his body and released it outward.“Please protect me for a short while. Just in case,” Altair had said to the soldiers nearby.“As you wish, Your Highness,” one of the legion leaders had replied.When Altair ignited the mana he had released, golden-yellow flames erupted, completely engulfing every inch of the area within perhaps a kilometre’s radius.The people’s severed limbs were regrowing, and the bodies of those who had been maimed were retur
