The tower was left speechless, it was not just it.
The outside world shared the same.
Pure and utter shock at what had just happened.
And what else could they do? What other emotion were they supposed to show except for shock?
What else could compare?
Amazement? Maybe.
Disbelief? Maybe. 𝑖𝘦.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Or was it inferiority?
Perhaps.
But right now it was pure and utter shock. Shock at the resplendent sight that had appeared in front of them.
An entire army of Undead, an army so vast and so terrifying. Gone in the blink of an eye.
“…”
Harrison was left speechless, truly nothing could compare.
He had seen this skill before, but not on this scale…Just what was Alan Peccator made up of?
“That was ice magic?”
A spectator muttered, and the others looked at him. But what could they say? Were they capable of such things?
What would they even dare to say, When the first ranked hero was left speechless? When Ragnar was left speechless, Hugo, Richard, Daniel, Logan.
No words could escape their mouths.
“Damn…He’s surpassed his mother and father alright.”
Micheal remarked from the stands, as someone who knew who the parents of Alan Peccator were…he was shocked.
‘Well, Elijah has also done it…so it’s good.’
He consoled his pride. His son had also surpassed him, the old generation had been replaced by the new. Both the sons had surpassed their parents.
The silence in the Colosseum was deafening.
********
[To think you had something like this up your sleeve…]
Said the tower, staring at the city-wide frozen hell.
The powers of Shadow and Frost clashed with one another, providing a spectacular sight to all that was left to view it.
Well, it was just the tower and the Shadow Borne Aluman.
Aluman, who was recuperating in the throne room of the emperor let out a terrifying shriek. The Energy of frost that attacked it was troublesome.
It let out a burst of Shadow energy. The burst was strong enough that the Imperial Castle was torn to shreds, the debris falling like meteors on the city.
*KIIIIIIIAAAAAAAK*
The scream was enough to shatter some of the ice. The Lumps of shadow in the ice were stimulated and they worked to recover the undead.
[Freezing them will only stall them!]
Remarked the Tower.
Although the feat of freezing the entire city was marvelous, it would not stop the undead! It would only stall for time!
“Did you think I didn’t plan for that?”
Alan’s chilly voice emerged from the frozen hell, He jumped up and chanted.
“Explode.”
And then, the ice exploded. It followed his commands and exploded!
[How?!]
The tower’s voice was silenced by the sheer noise of the Explosion.
The frozen capital…was now ruined. The ice was gone…and so was the capital.
“To deal with the undead…I need to destroy their bodies.”
I said I had altered [Glacial Collapse] with another type of magic known as Corpse Explosion. Since My Frost mana was covering all the undead and severely hindering the effects of the Shadow mana…I was able to gain control of the corpses.
It was only for a moment, but that was enough. I detonated the corpses so that nothing would be left.
I raised my head towards the Imperial Castle, Or rather what remained of it. It was just a mountain of trash now.
“That’s where you are.”
I used Dragon Eyes to confirm the location of the Shadow Borne and then activated my draconian transformation.
[…]
I transformed into a frost draconian and flew towards the imperial castle, the Ame-no-Sakhoko in my hand.
It’s time to teach Shadowborne a lesson.
*****
Aluman, the shadow-born, tried its best to recover the power that it had scattered towards the entire capital.
But it proved to be difficult. The latent frost that was still present in the atmosphere hindered its shadow energy.
It let out another vile shriek. Trying to stimulate its shadow energy but it had an adverse effect.
Instead of calling back its shadow energy…it had instead called someone else over.
That someone was me.
I tackled the Shadow borne in my draconian form and dragged it all across the city.
SHRIEK!
With a loud shriek, it shattered my eardrums and fired off a shadow blast right at me.
So this is how you want to play?
I dodged the Shadow Blast and fired a Breath of my own, right at its face.
However, It seems I did not do good damage to the beast.
The veil of shadows that protected it was durable.
It threw me off, and I flew high up in the skies.
“KIAAA!”
With another damn shriek, the shadowborn fired multiple blasts of chaos at me. I swerved left and right in the air to avoid them.
*BOOOM!*
Wow, I sure did great at not going head-on against them. The blasts had dyed the world purple when they detonated in the sky.
[Glacier has been cast.]
I cast 4 glacier spells and hurled them at the shadow-born. The monster, instead of avoiding or blasting them away, just stood still.
That is strange…The shadowborn will just take those attacks on? The glaciers fell right on top of it.
I activated mana sense just in case. And just as I had thought, it had disappeared. There was not even a trace of its energy left. It had performed the same trick it did when I was fighting the undead to disappear. I had just wasted my mana in trying to attack it.
‘Frost mana will not work…And neither will the others because of its ethereal form..So…’
I have only one choice. To use the ame-No-Sakahoko, which actively eliminates the power of shadows.
[HEAVENLY SKY SPEAR]
-||||Fourth Movement||||-
////Heavenly Armament\\\\
I activated the Heavenly Armament. It would prove to be useful. The demonic embrace and the cape had disappeared into my inventory when I transformed into the Frost Draconian. I activated the armament to have another layer of protection.
Hmmm…
It’s too quiet.
I stayed vigilant in the sky, away from all shadows, and waited for the Shadow borne to make a move.
