Chapter 75: Hell Wraith (2/2)

The arrow shot towards the Hell Wraith at an insane speed, but just before the arrow could hit it, it disappeared into thin air, making the arrow miss its target.

Arion now had a bad feeling seeing how even Mei and Yaro were helpless against this terrifying ghost-like monster.

Mei readied another arrow, but before she fully drew her bow, another jet of flames came falling down on Arion, who could only bring up his hands in panic.

But Mei acted fast as she quickly came before Arion and took the brunt of the attack as she cast a screen of white light with her hand.

But just like how Yaro's screen gave way, Mei's screen dispersed as the dark orange flames ate through it, and the force carried behind the flames again sent Mei flying with Arion in her embrace.

”Mei!!”

Arion felt as if his heart was caving in, seeing Mei's expression twist in pain. A flood of rage began to fill his mind as he looked at the five feet tall Hell Wraith floating in mid-air, its horrendous-looking face still looking at them with a salivating gaze filled with killing intent.

However, he somehow suppressed his rage since he did not want to do something reckless and have Mei take the burn for it again.

He got even more worried when he heard a searing sound from her back where she had got hit by the Dreadling's flames, and smoke was continuing to emanate from her back.

”Mei, are you alright?!” Arion worriedly asked as he tried to get up and support her before the Hell Wraith could attach them again.

”Yes, I am fine. Don't worry,” Mei said with a reassuring smile as she quickly got up and turned around to face the Hell Wraith, much to the surprise of Arion.

He was also surprised to see that her back was unhurt with no injuries at all. Even her white dress looked absolutely pristine without any signs of scorched fabric.

However, he decided to think about it later since right now, he couldn't afford to let himself get distracted seeing the approaching Hell Wraith.

But suddenly, a strong burst of wind blew in Arion's direction, and when he turned his head to see what it was, his eyes widened, seeing a large projection of a spear heading towards the Hell Wraith.

Inside the projection was Yaro's spear, and before the Hell Wraith could react, the projection exploded against it as torrents of energy waves blasted towards all sides.

But Mei was able to shield Arion from the waves while Arion was surprised to see Yaro standing up with an exhausted expression. It seemed as if it took a lot of prana for her to perform the last attack, and indeed it did seem to cause some damage as he saw the Hell Wraith's incorporeal body faltering and its dark orange flames appearing less vigorous.

Arion saw the spear which was lying on the ground shooting back towards Yaro with just a wave of her hand.

'She can summon her weapon back as well? How convenient!' Arion momentarily thought before shifting his focus back to the stunned Hell Wraith only to see Mei readying up another arrow on her bow.

This time he saw how a layer of faint white light began to emanate from her body, making her look like an entrancing goddess that descended from the heavens to purge evil.

And this faint light rapidly flowed towards her arrow as she fired it.

Just as the arrow left the bow, it split into dozens of green arrows with white light surrounding it, and within just a second, it struck the Hell Wraith, making it let out a shrill screech that could make one feel goosebumps.

*SCREEEEEEKK!!*

But Mei's attack seemed to have caused great distress to the Hell Wraith as it continued to screech while swaying in the air.

It was as if the Hell Wraith was suffering from being burned alive ironically. Dark smokes were emanating from its body as its flames showed signs of dying out.

Yaro somehow quickly came forward and stood beside Mei as they exchanged glances in understanding to deal the finishing blow.

But before they could, Arion was surprised by yet another astonishing sight.
