Chapter 1688 1688. Another Sealed Being



action

A few days before the siege of Lorethion, a small battle raged in the northern part of the Sylvan region. This northern part had the lowest temperature in the continent and was mostly covered in snow all year long.

A small figure crashed through the side of a hill, breaking the snow-covered rocks of the hill. A colossal figure followed behind this small figure.

The small figure crashed onto the ground but quickly got back up. This small figure was an ethereal with demonic features. This small figure was Master under demonization.

“Begone, you wretched ethereal, or I will vanquish you!”

The colossal figure that followed after Master was a huge dragon whose body seemed to be made of diamond. Her glistening skin was as if mirrors. Her voice was booming and yet also chilling. She gave Master a menacing stare.

“I admit you are more than what I thought,” the diamond dragon said. “But you are still not my match. You have used up all your divine skills. You should know your limits. Leave now and I will forget this transgression. Believe me, I’m doing your kind a favor. If you release the being from that seal, you will doom your kind. You don’t know what you are dealing with. You don’t know the kind of evil locked inside that seal.”

“Oh, but I know precisely who I am dealing with and what is behind that seal, Zorvis,” Master said with a grin.

“Then you should know better than trying to break the seal!” Zorvis roared. A thick stream of ice poured out of her mouth.

Master cast teleportation and vanished from the breath’s trajectory. He reappeared a distance away with his other hand in mid-casting. The spell that was being cast was an eight-rune spell. The casting was completed and a tiny orb shot toward Zorvis. Encased within this tiny orb were the essences of fire, lightning, and ice.

Zorvis used one of her wings to block this orb. The tiny orb came into contact with Zorvis’ wing and it exploded into a chaotic storm with the three elements intertwined haphazardly. The force of the eruption shattered Zorvis’ wing which she used to block the attack. She also suffered massive damage.

The spell Master cast was a new spell after his Elemental Master reached level 80. The spell was named Elemental Singularity. It was a powerful single-target attack that was effective on a target with high defenses. The attack not only bypassed the target’s defense but also reduced that defense for the remainder of the combat. It also had a high chance of wounding an opponent. That’s how the skill managed to shatter one of Zorvis’ wings.

Zorvis was a true dragon with the highest defense among her kind. Master’s attack not only broke one of her wings but also caused many cracks along the glistening surface of her body.

“Graagghh…!!! You, wretched mortal!” Zorvis screeched. “This is it! You have dug your own grave!!”

Zorvis lost her ability to fly after losing one of her wings, but she was still fast enough. The air exploded behind her and she shot forward with a similar ability to wind jet.

Master’s demonic wings flapped and he dodged the dragon’s menacing lunge. Zorvis didn’t let up. She continued to rush at Master, attempting to bring him into melee, but Master continued to dodge her assaults.

Master didn’t fly up despite his opponent losing the ability to fly. He stayed near the ground while continuing to retreat. Zorvis never stopped chasing him.

The cat-and-mouse chase carried on until they arrived at a pass between two low cliffs. When Zorvis crossed the pass, Master yelled, “Now…!!!”

The ground below Zorvis suddenly glowed. The glow revealed a circle with runic symbols.

“A… a weakening rune diagram…?!” Zorvis exclaimed with surprise. She felt her strength seeping as the rune diagram brightened.

Several figures came out from above the two cliffs. They were Master’s royal agents, his companion, Long, Ronald, and Linda. Among his royal agents was one level 90 mythical-grade ethereal. From behind the ice-covered trees a distance away, hundreds of ethereal soldiers emerged.

“You… You prepared this trap for me…?” Zorvis looked at Master in disbelief.

“Didn’t I tell you I know who I’m dealing with?” Master said with a grin. He cast Hell Prison. Even if Zorvis could cast the Fly spell or somehow reform her broken wing using the ice element, she would still not be able to flee.

A couple of hours later, Master was standing amidst hundreds of fallen ethereal soldiers. He left those corpses because he was tending to the most valuable corpse. The Book of Necronomicon was in his hand glowing an ominous light as it exerted its power on the corpse of the colossal icy dragon.

The dragon jerked before rising. All the cracks along her skin were gone. Even her broken wing was reformed to perfect condition. The only thing missing was the life in her eyes. She stood before Master with absolute obedience.

Master proceeded to revive the rest of his fallen troops, raising them to serve him a second time in their death.

After he was done, he sent these fresh zombie troops away in Liguritudum’s direction. His companion, royal agents, and surviving soldiers went with those troops. He went in the opposite direction, accompanied by Long, Roland, Linda, and zombie Zorvis.

They returned to the place where Master first encountered Zorvis, a huge icy cave. Inside the cave was pitch black. Master and Zorvis had no trouble seeing. Linda cast Illumination to let Ronald, Long, and her perceive their surroundings.

Zorvis stood guard near the entrance while the four went deeper. The cave hall was extremely large since it used to be Zorvis’ nest. They came to the end of the cave hall where they saw a large symbol on the cave wall.

“Behind this seal is the one who is going to be our country guardian?” Linda asked.

“If she agrees to the offer,” Master answered.

“The eldritch beholder agrees. No reason for her to be different,” Linda said.

Long, who was clueless about what the two were talking about, said, “While I don’t care what we are here to get or face, I’m still annoyed when I have no idea what is going on.”

“In an RPG game, there are post-game contents,” Master explained. “Most of these post-game contents are in the underworld after players complete the main story, but a few are scattered in the far reaches of the wilderness, like this place. One of the post-game contents comes in the form of secret bosses for players to defeat.”

“I assume the one behind this seal is one of these secret bosses?” Long asked.

“That is correct,” Master answered.
