Chapter 5 - Beam of Holy Destruction (1/2)
We were now outside the gates of the city of New Heart, the place was filled with a lot of people, most of them being mages who were probably hunting monsters too. Apparently, you get experience from killing monsters and improve your skills by using them and that is how everyone levels up.
As I walked into the area with the Princess's arm in my arm, everyone was staring at her.
”What is Princess Charlotte doing here? This is a low-level monster area.” said one of the adventurers.
”Who is that guy with her highness? He is a level 10, why is the Princess walking hand in hand with him? ” said his other party member looking at Glaze confused.
One of the more powerful looking groups who looked like nobles stood out because of their superior looking equipment, one of them, a woman named Karen Aqulia, said” What is that common blood princess doing here? And with a level 10 guy, that's fitting for a commoner like her that got into royalty by luck” with a disdainful gaze towards Princess Charlotte.
”Ssh, she might hear you, she is a level 29 Expert Karen.” said her friend who also looked like a noble.
”Huh, so what if she does? I have been pushing her around since we were kids, she might have lucked out and found a way to level up so fast but she has no guts to actually do anything for the sake of keeping the peace in the Kingdom.” She said, not hiding her contempt even a bit despite being only at Level 19.
As we went into somewhat of an open area, the Princess said,” Don't mind these people, Lord Glaze, try using your new magic here freely.”
I tried activating my Holy Destruction Magic, instantly it created a shockwave with a sound of a sonic boom followed by purple streaks of lightning all around my body with my hair floating upwards. I could feel a strange sensation throughout my body, it was like lightning flowing through my veins but many times faster and stronger. It did not make a crackling sound but constant sonic booms, it was like I was in the center of a cyclone.
Holy Destruction Magic was flowing throughout my entire body. The princess was standing on the side with a smile , ” You are able to access the entirety of your magic so easily Lord Glaze and it looks like a type of destruction magic though I have never seen any destruction magic look like this or cause such an effect, now try concentrating the magic from your body into your hands and try to control it.”
As I tried to feel the power of destruction rushing through me, I felt an impulse, the dėsɨrė to destroy. It was like my subconscious mind was telling me to cause destruction, my entire body was itching to cause destruction. I somehow managed to control the impulse with great difficulty. I raised my hands and tried to concentrate the magic into my hands.
As the magic went from my entire body and towards my hands the cyclones calmed down and the sonic booms too but it caused the light in the surroundings to start flickering, creating an effect of light and darkness again and again very quickly. The ground beneath my feet started cracking and then sunk with a loud boom. The ground started breaking into small rocks that started floating in the air with purple lightning cracking everywhere and my hands were not even visible and were just a blinding purple light.
Princess Charlotte said, ” Lord Glaze a few Level 10 Monsters are coming this way, you can test your power on them, fufu.” despite the effect of my magic she remained calm.
The people around us were in shock at my display of magic.
