Episode 37.11-12 (2/2)
Two point-blank <Fire Arrows> went at Zoltan's eyes.
<Shadow Blade> got stopped by Lecan's barrier, producing a light outline.
Zoltan lightly shook his face. As a result, the two <Fire Arrows> hit his face but missed his eyes. His face got gouged out by the <Fire Arrows> but Zoltan paid it no heed and recited another spell.
”<Devour>!”
The blue light outlined part of the barrier eroded away.
Then a slash came flying.
Zoltan performed the slash as he was falling down yet it accurately went through the eroded part.
However, Zoltan's slash missed its target as Lecan swiftly twisted his body to the left.
Zoltan dexterously twisted his body to regain his balance all while keeping his barrage of slashes.
However, a momentary opening was created then. Which is exactly what Lecan has been waiting for.
”<Lightning>!”
He used up a huge portion of his mana to shoot <Lightning> all around Zoltan's face. Of course Lecan would suffer some damage too casting <Lightning> this close. But he paid it no mind.
Lecan filled <Comet Cutter> with converged mana he had finished kneading.
”
!”
Even if Zoltan possess a highly precise <3D Perception>, having <Lightning> wrapped around his face should still disorientate him for a moment. In that instance, Lecan unleashed
skill at Zoltan's throat while expanding <Comet Cutter> to its maximum length.
Unbelievably enough, even in this situation, Zoltan swung his own magic sword at <Comet Cutter>. However, <Comet Cutter> which expanded out at terrifying speed and loaded with Puncture tore that magic sword into pieces, and pierced through Zoltan's throat.
Lecan immediately swung <Comet Cutter> to the left.
Even after having his throat cut, Zoltan still attempted to slash at Lecan with a third of his remaining magic sword.
Lecan's barrier didn't stop the magic sword. Since the sword has lost its magic.
But due to Lecan raising his left elbow as he took a step forward to hit Zoltan's right sword hand, the remain of magic sword never reached Lecan.
Zoltan's throat is recovering itself. He must have swallowed the second large red potion. However, its healing effect was diminished. Zoltan suddenly slowed down.
Lecan slashed <Comet Cutter> cutting off Zoltan's right arm from the elbow down.
A moment later, <Comet Cutter>'s magic blade vanished. Lecan hadn't mastered the magic sword enough to maintain its maximum length, and his mana pool was nearing its bottom.
Zoltan's left leg made a wind sweeping sound as it went at Lecan. However, that kick was far from sharp. Lecan easily dodged it by stepping backward.
Thud, Zoltan tumbled down.
Lecan lunged close to Zoltan and pushed his left palm against Zoltan's chest.
”<Flame Spear>!”
Lecan poured every last bit of mana he had left into this magic attack.
Even the Phantasmal Verdant Hornet armor and its high magic resistance was incapable of defending against <Flame Spear> with so much firepower at such a close distance.
The last resort <Flame Spear> pierced through Zoltan's chest, and hit dungeon wall behind him before exploding.
With a huge hole opened in its chest, Zoltan's body slowly fell backward.
Lecan also knelt down as dizziness assaulted him.
Then he could feel his emptied mana pool getting refilled back.
<Guardian Jewel of Zana>'s Grace.
This jewel has <Refill User Mana> Grace. At Ninae, the jewel also refilled Lecan's mana after it had been loaded full with mana and activated its
Grace.
Lecan was hit by a sense of despondency from exhausting stamina and willpower beyond his limit, and relief from mana soaking his body as he relived the fact that the death match is over.
