Chapter 490: The Secret of Composite Skill, Defeated! (1/2)
“Impressive reaction. How is my Variable Ice Sword?”
The middle-aged, messy beard royal arcane master proudly rubbed his chin, “But I didn’t use my full power just now. Do you want to surrender now?”
Variable Ice Sword?
There was no arcane power thread guiding it and yet it could change direction in mid-air.
What a strange arcane skill...... This is more powerful than the simultaneous shot of a hundred ice swords, and it’s an arcane skill that saves arcane particles.
Ayrin pulled out a roll of bandage with his left hand and bandaged his wound while calling out, “Uncle! One more time!”
Again?
You can’t even lift your right arm anymore, yet you have the courage to continue fighting with those eyes filled with fighting spirit?
The royal arcane master frowned and narrowed his eyes.
“Fine, again it is!”
Psst!
As he casually talked, an ice crystal short sword appeared next to him and then disappeared.
The Variable Ice Sword reappeared to Ayrin’s right. However, in the next instant, it suddenly appeared on his left.
Bam!
Bam!
Ayrin stomped hard on the ground.
In that instant, he also completed a spin. The area under his right shoulder’s wound spilled out blood.
He actually forced his right arm to clash into the ice crystal short sword!
Another deep hole opened up on Ayrin’s right arm, but he shouted out in excitement instead, “I can sense it clearly now!”
“It’s a composite skill! The secret of your arcane skill lies in the floating ice beads!”
“These ice beads can instantly absorb your short sword, then shoot it out again! Plus, the power contained within the ice beads can accelerate your short sword!”
“Hence, the short sword did not freely change directions. The advancing pattern of your short sword is through reflection! It advanced like a light ray getting reflected by floating mirrors! You just need to control which ice beads the short sword will head towards to control where it will reflect and decide where and when to attack!”
“You actually saw through my arcane skill so soon?”
“You’re right.” The royal arcane master looked at Ayrin’s right arm with a little astonishment, “However, why did you you forcefully spin yourself and use your right arm to collide with my short sword?”
“Because I can’t avoid it anyway. I have to take the hit in the end.” Ayrin spoke as if it was natural, “Since my right arm cannot be used after taking one hit, I should just use it as a meat shield.”
“Meat shield?”
The three royal arcane masters twitched.
What a savage speech...... What kind of monster says something like that so naturally?
“Composite skill...... The difficulty of those two arcane skills does not seem high. The problem is using them together...... I more or less got it.” At that moment, Ayrin mumbled something to himself after bandaging his wounds.
“What more or less?”
The royal arcane master with the messy beard was dumbfounded.
“Uncle, shouldn’t you use that arcane skill you used before now?” Ayrin called out with anticipation.
“You still want to fight? And you want me to use the Ice Sword Rush?”
The royal arcane master looked at Ayrin and felt confused.
“Uncle, hurry up!”
Seeing the royal arcane master not attacking, Ayrin began urging him.
“Fine!”
The royal arcane master took a deep breath.
Swoosh!
The calm air before him suddenly became choppy.
A hundred ice swords manifested.
This time, he used his full power. The ice swords became faster and more powerful.
Crack!
The continuous sonic boom joined up to become a single sound.
This time, a huge ice ring appeared around Ayrin.
The ice swords forcefully penetrated the ice ring and rammed into Ayrin.
All the ice swords shattered on Ayrin’s scaly body. Ayrin was buried in ice shards once again.
Ayrin jumped out from the ice shards and exclaimed, “I got it!”
Does he not know pain?
He’s so happy despite getting so beaten up?
Is he the definition of a masochist?
The three royal arcane masters twitched again.
After jumping out of the ice shards, the shivering Ayrin immediately asked, “Uncle, do you maybe have a weird arcane skill more powerful than these two?”
“Even if you do, I can't endure them. I guess it ends here.”
However, before the royal arcane master could answer, Ayrin shook his head in regret and looked at him again, “Uncle, you seem like a good guy. I will begin my counterattack now. Please be careful.”
Counterattack?
The three royal arcane masters glanced at each other and had an ominous feeling.
“Let’s begin!” Ayrin shouted.
The royal arcane master with a messy beard contracted his pupils. Before his two companions realized any incongruity, he blasted out arcane particles under his feet and dashed backwards.
Two cuts appeared on his arcane robe near his chest, revealing two shallow wounds.
“Assassination skill! Silent chant assassination skill!”
“This...... This is Merciless Killer Diginril’s Formless Silent Blade!”
The two other royal arcane masters opened their mouths wide in shock and finally realized what happened.
