Chapter 327 - Atlas And Lucia Vs. Sebastian (I) (2/2)
2. Magic spell effects and magic attacks will have their damage and effects increased massively. The longer the fight, the stronger the effects will be.
3. Increased Natural Mana regeneration during the duration of the effects.
Once the user is out of the [Icarus] state, all of the stats that has been amplified by the skill will return to normal.
While the skill is not active, the user enjoys a 10% fire damage increase to spells and 2% mana consumption reduction.
Info: Like how Icarus was burned the moment he approached the sun, the user will also experience a similar thing to how Icarus felt while being burned by the sun's flares. But anyone who can endure the flames and their heat will allow them to soar and utilize the power of the strongest flames.
Note: That means it's barbecue time!
Lucia winced a little bit due to how the skill caused her to suffer some pain before she can enjoy the benefits it brings her. But she miss the feeling of the strong flames she had back then due to the effects of the skills.
”Whoa...I didn't expect to see one of the descendants of the original king is still alive out here. The Primordial Power of the flames, Icarus. You must be his descendant, yes?” Sebastian has a sly grin on his face.
”Wah? You know my father and my ancestor?!” Lucia was perplexed.
”Calm down, Lucia-sama,” Atlas tried to let Lucia calm down from her surprise. After all, he didn't want to have Lucia get roped in by the demons with the facade of letting her know her past.
”Why should I tell you the reason? If you are not even able to graze me, then why would I tell you about them?”
”You bastard!” Lucia wanted to pounce straight but Atlas immediately stops her.
”Lucia-sama! Calm down for a sec!” Atlas grabs Lucia's arm, allowing him to restrain him before she goes out of control from her rage.
”Hotblooded, a very common trait to someone with the blood of Icarus. From the looks of it, you are a primordial demon, a demon who was still not tainted by the unknown power.”
”What the heck are you talking about?!” Lucia is growling badly and it looked like she is about to eat a cow whole right now.
”Since you are so adamant about this, why don't we play a game?”
”I have no time to play your games!” Lucia is getting stronger as time goes by than even Atlas who usually has a strong grip on most things he is holding, is finding it hard to handle Lucia.
”Then, I shall rephrase it, perhaps you will be interested. We play a game, every time you graze or damage me with your attack or your companion's attack, then I will allow you to ask me one question. The more hits you make against me, the more questions you can ask me. How about that, a deal?”
”What is your goal of doing this?!” Atlas this time intervened.
”Well, why not? It's a good thing to spice up things a little, you guys don't even have many things that can even allow me to enjoy much. Not only that but it can also potentially benefit your companion seething over there. There's nothing to lose to try unless you all die in my hands, right?”
Atlas is hesitant but before he can even respond to the decline, Lucia who is already seething in anger decided to grab the opportunity.
”Fine! I will play your damnable game but you better go with the deal!”
”As a butler, I am not going to just lie to anyone unless my master needed it. Otherwise, I will fulfill every transaction fair and square. No need to worry about everything at all unless you are such a worrywart.”
Atlas is now worried about the situation. As much as he wanted to stop Lucia from falling to the tricks of the demon butler, it was obvious that she cannot help but be enticed by it due to how generous and tempting the rewards to Lucia were if they indeed managed to succeed in doing so. However, with how cunning most demons were, he is now unsure whether it is the right thing he has done or they are doomed from the very start.. If they ever get defeated in the process which is still pretty unlikely, he hopes that Bladeheart will come and save them from the misery.
