Chapter 199 – Lightly-dressed Girl, Night Silver Blade (2/2)
“Light Barrier!”
“Advanced Magic Shield!”
“Wind Domain!”
They used various defensive and perception magics, it was midnight but the night was illuminated to the point where it was like daytime!
Even then, they couldn’t find any trace of Shen DaiYing!
Was she preparing an ambush?
“Protect His Highness!”
In order to protect Charles, the five people spread out to four directions surrounding Charles in the center while extending the scope of their magic trying to uncover Shen DaiYing from the darkness. Devoru also stood next to Charles and acted as his shield, preparing to block the blade.
“Damn… where did she go? She couldn’t have escaped, right?”
Victor cursed inwardly.
Just as they thought victory was within grasp. but now they couldn’t even find them, let alone catch them alive.
But Shen DaiYing didn’t leave them confused for too long.
“Shadow Blink!”
A black dot appeared in the sky, at first no one noticed, but as it expanded, the acute lion finally discovered it.
“Above!” Devoru yelled.
“What?”
Victor instinctively looked up and instant cast a magic at it before even identifying what it was to try and force her to retreat. But he didn’t know how frightening Dead Moon could be.
Shen DaiYing descended from the sky like a ghost, in the previous instant she was still high in the sky, in the next instant she was behind Victor, completely evading all the instant cast magic and defensive barriers.
Then she swung Soul Slayer.
“Shadow Kill, Heartbreaker.”
It was different than when she used that with her long sword, this time, her moments were as fast as lighting, where they couldn’t even see her clearly.
“Victor!”
Everyone cried out in alarm, but it was too late. None of his defensive magic could stop her blade, it was like that sharp dagger could cut through anything, including his heart!
“Watch out!”
At the last minute, Devoru moved!
As the blade was about to pierce Victor’s heart, he pushed him shifting the trajectory of the blade and making it miss its mark by several millimetres.
Even if it didn’t hit the heart, the dagger inflicted a serious injury. Shen DaiYing didn’t succeed in one hit and vanished again, leaving black mist, with Victor spitting out blood and losing consciousness because of the pain.
“Victor! Damn, strengthen the defense, don’t give her a chance to approach… wait, what’s that?”
Just as the remaining four prepared to continue casting, they noticed that a thick black mist began surrounding them.
Everyone turned their head and were scared out of their wits.
It turns out that she didn’t leave, but ran into the center of their array.
“Shadow Kill, Devastating Slashes!”
The girl gently moved her red lips.
In the next instant, the violent black mist swallowed everyone!
“You Highness!!”
The two teammates didn’t know what kind of move it was and couldn’t care about their own safety as they used their bodies to push Charles to the ground.
Then came waves of miserable howls.
From the start, Charles was like a calm bystander, even after being enveloped and pushed to the ground, he didn’t reveal any surprise.
If he was fated to die, then he couldn’t escape. If he wasn’t, then…
“Cough… your highness!”
After a while, the black mist finally dispersed, because Devoru was the furthest away from the center along with the injured Victor, he wasn’t harmed too much. He thought that it was the same for the others, but his face was drained of any blood after seeing them.
“You guys…”
The teachers that were just casting magic and their teammates were all lying on the ground, covered in blood. He didn’t know whether they were dead or alive.
“Your highness, your highness!”
Devoru called out like he was mad, quickly he saw a colo
