Soul Monarch: The Eclipse Feast Online

The Evil, Attack

My body rolled on the ground, trying to minimize the damage when it was blown away by the explosion.

Uhh, my HP points were reduced quite a lot over the explosion. I thought so when I woke up immediately, moving inside a puff of smoke to avoid another direct damage but—

BOOM UP!

Another explosion was immediately created. Made some rocks bounce off of the spot, cut off the path I was about to use and made my steps stop.

"Who is that?!" I screamed loudly before—

"Great Light."

The burst of light swelled up, fighting the darkness of this area with its light. Yes, making Sile's body as if it were a small sun, expelling the darkness that had been living in this place.

My eyes narrowed, trying to lower my eyes' sensitivity to light while looking at where the party was doing this. And ...

[Night Vision has successfully evolved into Dark Magic Eye]

... The notice is heard.

Eh? Do I just have to do this?! Thought fucked. Isn't this task too easy?!

But—

A slash!

The trajectory of a cold blade was enough to restore my mind.

"Mega!" my yelling. Making Deira turn into her sickle shape. Hold that trajectory and make sparks appear.

Fortunately, I was still able to withstand the attack. And yes, don't let my mind run everywhere, myself.

Activating Dark Magic Eye to improve my eyesight. I looked at the beast-kin, the figure that attacked me once again.

She has a pretty face with round glasses and a height of about 170 cm. Moreover, from his physical appearance he was a fox-type beast-kin with golden hair color.

What concerns me more is—

Boings.

Uhh. No, no, no, not that big chest, myself. But the weapon he used was the same as me (or Megaera), the Scythe (sabit).

I've never seen anyone else who uses a scythe other than myself. Moreover, he already has a Title Killer Scythe, showing that the ability is good enough to be able to win the Title, yes.

Even so, I don't think he's alone and the person who made the explosion earlier was someone else.

"Un, I didn't expect anyone would actually come here like the priest said." He said with a little murmuring.

Well, whatever it is.

"Do you know the way out of here?" my many.

I really just want to get out of this valley, huh. Even though he is a person on the Evil side, I think I still have a chance to talk carefully ...

"Un. In that case, I will only kill you as the priest ordered."

... Until he said so and attacked me immediately.

The scythe in his hand swung quickly, trying to hit me before I held back with Deira. Making his scythe accept the reaction force and bounce back. If it was me, I would need some more time before being able to swing the scythe back, but he didn't.

Instead of choosing to accept that reaction force, the scythe in his hand kept swinging along. Giving me another attack, more, more, more, more and yes, faster along with the defense I gave.

"This is the correct way to deal with a sickle, the Dirae," said Megaera.

Good. Well, I know that the way he handled the scythe was really in another realm of what is capable of 'tuk me do.

And even though he seems to be doing this micro-technique easily, I know it's not that easy, huh.

Instinctively you will try to hold something that feels like it wants to slip out of the hand quickly rather than following the direction in which it wants to detach. Also, factors such as balance still need to be considered.

Moreover, yes, it seemed like he had not used any Art either.

The sound of metal continued to clang as most of the sickle blows managed to catch on. While some of them still managed to give me damage even though I can withstand it.

"Higher Magic, Target Mark." I cast a spell before the dozens of fog spears where I let go. Gives me an opportunity to step down with the help of the Mana Board.

"Strengthen Damage, Mana Bullet," I rap when I shoot mana bullets. Make the fox survive.

Well, I guess I'll be able to handle this. Thought.

But—

BOOM UP!

Another explosion was immediately created near me. It made me cough and closed my vision in a cloud of dust.

Yes, yes. Obviously this is not something that is easy to deal with.

I connected my vision with Sile before I left immediately. Unleash a barrage of random fog balls, trying to hit the person who unleashed this explosion.

From the shape and pattern of the explosion, I guess this is a physical type explosion so I guess he won't be too far away from this place. Well, I guess I can be sure of that.

However, the fox immediately closed the distance with me, it seemed like he could ignore the damage I gave him, huh?

Sliding quickly, the scythe in his hand immediately swung, eyeing my neck and—

"Where's Layer!" I shouted, setting up a thin barrier before immediately retreating.

Meanwhile, the fox increased the bit of power he gave the scythe in his hand. Make the barrier as a pedestal until it can lift itself into the air.

Oi! What's with that athletic ability?! Yes, I want to be able to do it too. Something like that.

Twisting his body slightly, he swung the sharp end of the scythe ...

"Dissect Cut!"

... With an Art's being used, the cold blade's eyes pointed at me.

"Increase Speed, Mana Board," I said instantly. Stepping on the boards where there are and making me stay away from his attacks.

At least, he would be stuck there for a moment. I thought before another attack immediately came at me, of course from the fox beasts.

Yea? What about the Root effect that should happen after using Art's?! What did he say before just to lie to me? But the sparkle of light earlier was clearly not falsifiable, yes!

Uhh. I'm really fucked up right now. I thought so as to release the fog balls mana frantically, trying to hold it in.

Lifting the —s sickle blade which is certainly quite wide— he makes the blade as a shield. Withstanding attack.

And even though it didn't look very effective, I continued the attack, trying to contain it. Until he suddenly got right in front of me and swung his scythe.

What is Blink Skill? I barely heard him say anything ... Uhh. Immediately resist the attack and retaliate by swinging Deira.

However, as if able to read what I was about to do, he dodged my attack and immediately counterattacked. Tearing at my back, making the blood scatter for a moment before evaporating into mist.

It was better to retreat immediately before another attack occurred. But ... I also can't get too far or the blast attack will lead to me but if it gets too close I think he can catch up to me immediately with the blink Skill.

It's really a difficult condition.

"Un. You're really good enough to survive us."

Well, that doesn't feel like a compliment, fox! Especially with what you just did, what I can do is really nothing compared to it!

Okay, calm down. I thought as I took a deep breath.

I better think about all the factors that exist before acting too hastily like before. That kind of thing would be too predictable and make me fall into a passive state. Something obvious will blow me away.

Immediately, the fox moved back. Makes me raise my misfortune higher on the attacks he's about to make.

And ...

BOOM!

... The explosion was immediately created right by my side. While he was, the fox chose to retreat and waited for another opportunity to attack.

Uhh, how could I possibly be that calm, myself?!
