Chapter 24 Fallen Angel
update icon Updated at 2025/5/25 0:10:12

Does anyone have any good suggestions?

Although I directly agreed to the battle matter, I am now troubled by what comes next.

The opponent is a fallen angel at level 38, almost twice my level. How should I defeat him?

As I walked towards the battlefield, I kept thinking about this question. Although I had many ideas in my mind, I always felt that they could have negative consequences.

I looked at Miss Xuemengste beside me. She was happily examining the newly obtained bow in her hand. Seriously, while I was working hard to think about equipment, you effortlessly obtained one. Life really isn't fair.

Although I wanted to ask her to lend me the bow since she got a new weapon, I remembered the fact that I had never used a bow, and I had no confidence in my accuracy.

There's no way, should I just directly confront him? It seems like I have to go all out today to upgrade my equipment.

"Alright, we're here."

Pushing open a large door, a black battlefield three times the size of the actual battle arena appeared before us.

The patterns on it... Why do they give me a feeling of a Pokémon battle arena? It must be my illusion.

"Alright, let's have a battle! Let me see what special trait this so-called undead saint angel has!"

"You still dare to say that? Your abilities are much higher than mine, do you think this is a fair fight?"

"Fair? Does a demon still need to talk about fairness?"

That's a good reason. Are you really okay saying that with such righteousness?

Oh right, you are a demon, although I don't know if I am, but for now, let's assume I am.

And when she said that, she had a satisfied expression on her face, which is... really irritating!

"Alright, since that's the case, let's have a battle!"

After speaking, I spread my wings directly.

Restore magic, ready! Prepare for the strongest magic of all elements! I placed all the possible skills in convenient positions and headed to the battlefield.

"Oh, so you really are an undead saint angel. Bone wings just like the undead dragon."

Korina smiled slightly, opened her black wings, and flew up into the sky.

With an agile posture, she spun in the air and turned into a black shadow, charging straight towards me!

"Acceleration! Shadow Strike! Great ultimate skill - Wind Spirit!!!!"

Increase agility by 30%, increase agility by 100%, then increase agility by 150%. After these three spells, my agility directly increased by 550% (note that it is multiplied: 1.3x2x2.5=6.5). Although it consumed a considerable amount of magic, it is now safer for me to avoid her attacks.

The effects of the magic are also very noticeable. Now, I basically don't feel the weight of my body at all. I feel like I can move quickly with just a slight movement!

However, facing Korina rushing towards me, I just lowered my body, spread my wings, and passed through her attack just like the wind!

After learning those ultimate skills, I didn't try any assist-type magic, let alone acceleration magic like Wind Spirit. So, the result was that after suddenly accelerating, I found myself on the other side of the field in just one second. Thankfully, I've had quite a lot of battles during this period, and my reflexes have improved a lot. When I realized I was about to crash into the wall, I quickly performed a mid-air turn and forcefully landed on the wall, stopping my body.

"Not bad, your flying speed is fast... but are you only going to use it to dodge?"As Corey said that, she stretched out her hands and aimed them at me.

"Praise the Dark Lord of Demons! I shall bring darkness and abundance..."

"You're chanting too slow!"

Before she could finish, I glided directly towards her, and swung my sword at her waist!

Although it may not be morally right to attack a mage before they finish casting a spell... but even if I listened to her entire incantation, I wouldn't be able to learn it anyway. Should I just bore myself waiting for her to finish chanting and attack me?

Of course not, even if my personality allowed it, I wouldn't allow it!

As I expected, the opponent was not easily defeated.

A black light flashed and a pair of black claws appeared on her hands, blocking my attack at her abdomen!

"Darn it, you..."

Terminating the spell mid-casting seemed to have caused her some damage, as evidenced by the blood trickling from her mouth and the 5% decrease in her HP bar.

"Sorry, but we're in the middle of a battle, you know. My apologies."

"You're right, hehe!"

Suddenly, she grabbed my sword with her hand, and as I tried to pull it out, I realized that it was firmly fixed. At the same time, her other hand swiftly grabbed towards me from below!

Indeed, I am not good at close combat...

"Ice Shield!"

Just as my ice shield formed, her claws fiercely slapped against it!

However, the ice shield was undoubtedly shattered in an instant, but it bought me about half a second.

Clang!

A familiar sound of metal collision, her claws broke through my ice shield and directly hit my dagger. My palm stung, and when I looked down, I found that it had already cracked!

Hastily using a healing spell, the wound quickly healed.

"You can even dual-wield? And you can use recovery magic? You're quite formidable."

"Likewise, I have to give it my all if you're this strong."

"I'll take that as your admiration for me."

"Whatever! Ice Totem!"

The ice totem appearing between us forcibly pushed us to both sides! After a loud bang, I found myself on the other side of the battlefield.

Looking up, I saw the ice totem suddenly split in half, and Corey was rapidly charging towards me from the center of the split!

Are you kidding me!

"Arcane·Anti-Natural Frost!"

White flames, like a fire dragon, directly sprayed onto Corey's body, and the flames quickly ignited!

Corey tried to extinguish them, but found that the flames were only growing, and a layer of freezing mist slowly emanated from her.

"What kind of flames are these! They're... cold..."

Just as she spoke, her entire body turned into an ice sculpture, still maintaining her original pose.

Huh?

Did I win?

I looked towards Blackberry outside the ring, but she didn't say anything and just continued to smile at me.

This...

Just then, there was an explosion, and I was blasted out.

During my flight, I saw... the spot where Corey was frozen had turned into a gigantic black pillar!

"Fir... right? Hahaha! Let's have an all-out battle!!!! Hahaha!!"

Korina emerged from the pillar, her body surrounded by black flames, and her eyes emitted an eerie red glow, like light bulbs.

...

Oh my god, are you Morgana?
