Chapter 215 Essence Of Techniques

Banngg-!

Abomination struck with the intent to kill, however, a shield appeared from the magic circle beneath Leon and protected him.

He was blown away.

Fishhhh-

Leon stabbed his sword into the ground and managed to come to a halt.

"Er..gh.."

A groan escaped his lips as he tried to stand. He had broken his left leg in the earlier clash. With this amount of damage, his mobility became zero.

Leon gritted his teeth and shifted his focus to the magic circle beneath his feet. It had suddenly appeared out of thin air. He could tell that it was an Aether magic circle and fortunately, he was also able to deduce the main function of the magic circle.

'Summoning'

Someone was summoning him. But who?

a.n.a.lyzing it further, he found the amount of time he had left before he was teleported to the summoner.

Summoning would take 1 minute to complete.

"Do you have nothing original, child of destiny?"

Baanng-!

Abomination covered the distance in the meantime and struck Leon. Nevertheless, the previous scene repeated. A shield formed and saved him.

'The summoning circle is to save the summoned until the summoning is complete'

It was a high level of summoning. Coupled with the fact it used an aether magic circle and worked in the pocket dimension of the tower, the summoner had to be of high rank.

'No, this isn't the time for this.' Raikou scooped Leon with its two front hands. 'I need to take Nathan's soul core before that.'

Holding Leon with two front arms, Raikou raised its two sword-carrying arms.

'Essence of Sixth Form: To deceive and Essence of Seventh Form: To Separate'

He barely managed to execute the complete seventh form, yet Leon was trying to combine the essence of the sixth and seventh forms for his last attack. That was the only way to s.n.a.t.c.h the soul core from the Abomination.

However, Leon suddenly stiffened.

'What if the monster knows about this technique, too?'

Up till now, although this was Leon's first time using so many techniques, Abomination had been dodging and deflecting his moves as if it had seen them already.

For a second, Leon froze from fear. For a second only.

"Come"

He provoked the Abomination.

'I'll defeat you even if you know this form'

Failure was not an option. If there was even a slight glimmer of hope, he would fight for it.

"Did you come up with a new technique?"

Looking at the [Raikou] that was raising its swords in the air, Abomination wondered if Leon had finally made a new technique for it to steal.

Bam-!

The Abomination shot towards the asura.

"Seventh Form: Deadline"

"Sixth Form: Empty Fade"

Tearing through the air at breakneck speed, Abomination noticed that Leon was giving up on defense and putting all into offense for one last attack.

Smoke swirled around Raikou and 4 more arms appeared on its back, all carrying swords.

"Do not disappoint me, child of destiny!"

The two met.

BOOOOMM-!

The Floor shook as the Abomination attacked [Raikou].

A momentary pause formed, but their auras suddenly erupted! Golden lightning wrapped around the grey lightning and danced into the sky!

Leon clenched his jaws until they bled. His blades kept pushing further as he tried to defeat the monster. An enormous explosion engulfed both of them.

Waves of heat exploded outwards, trees and the forest was uprooted from the impact, fissures ran through the ground and smoke filled the air.

Then silence reigned.

A bit later, one could make the figure of a giant with four arms and an upper torso through the smoke.

Baangg-!

Suddenly, Leon's figure flew out of the mist and crashed into the ground.

"That was unoriginal, too"

Coming out of the mist was Abomination, a cut running from its right shoulder to its left waist. Leon had almost succeeded in cleaving the monster in two, but he was unsuccessful.

Behind Abomination, [Raikou] was slowly disintegrating into the air. A hole was created at the chest of the asura, it formed when Abomination punched Leon through [Raikou] and destroyed [Raikou] in the process.

Cough- Cough-

Leon's limbs were facing the wrong direction. The shield was protecting him, yet the Abomination's attack had rendered him to this state.

Nevertheless, his eyes held relief in them.

"G..ot it"

An ever-changing flame hovered over his palm. He had let Abomination strike him in order to s.n.a.t.c.h the soul core in the gap that would appear.

At the same time, Abomination was looking at the tiny flame remaining with it and muttered to itself.

"As I thought, this soul core isn't normal. My attack would've killed the Child of Destiny if not for this flame acting up and diverting my attention for a split second."

It was only a soul core, yet it was trying to take over Abomination. It baffled the monster, the amount of will to live of its owner was unimaginable.

"It was a good choice that I took the soul core before killing the owner."

Naturally, Abomination had sensed that something was amiss with Nathan's soul. Thus, the monster proceeded to extract Nathan's soul core before killing him physically.

Although Lark had rescued his physical body after that, Abominations was confident Nathan was dead. n.o.body can survive without a soul core.

Shifting its attention back to Leon, Abomination mused.

"Are you hoping to run away, child of destiny?"

Grabbing the empty air beside it, the Abomination flicked its hand. In response, the magic circle beneath Leon dimmed and stopped.

Leon's eyes widened.

"You can a.n.a.lyze this circle's purpose?!"

It was a monster. It shouldn't have such a high level of intellect, not at Iota rank. Not to mention, it was able to stop the spell, too.

Leon attempted to stand however, he fell back. Giving up on defense during his last attack turned out to be lethal.

Not seeing any meaning in letting Leon live, Abomination attacked but suddenly…

Bang-! Bang-! (x5)

Swords fell from the sky and pinned the monster on the ground!

Leon's eyes widened. He looked into the sky, only to find a colossal Spear heading toward the Abomination!

BOOOOMM-!

An explosion, no smaller than the previous one, erupted. At the same time, reddish-black flames spread from the Spear.

"Wait!"

The flames broke the barrier inhibiting the summoning magic circle, and before Leon could confirm his guess, he was teleported.

*

The Abomination came out of the dust. It had already sensed the disappearance of Leon and looked into the sky.

There it saw someone it believed to be dead.

A gigantic Spear was floating far into the sky and on top of it was the owner of the ever-changing flames.

"Oya, how are you alive? Or is this some sort of elaborate trick?"

Leisurely strolling, it taunted Nathan. No matter how strong he was, the monster was still stronger.

A spear materialized in Nathan's hands, and purple flames wrapped around the weapon. Tauting his back like a bow, his arms bulged, and he threw it.

Fwosh-

The monster ignored the oncoming attack. The colossal Spear wasn't able to harm it, let alone this puny one. There was no need to dodge.

"Shouldn't you think of surviving first? You cannot de-"

Bang-!

The spear struck the Abomination's head and it burst!

The monster tried to regenerate its head, only to realize it wasn't possible! Its body trembled!

Finally, Nathan opened his mouth.

"Change that appearance before speaking."
