Chapter 498 – Assassination Family Raven 5 (29)

As I watched the priests and paladins fall, I felt that I had really become stronger.

Shadow Craft, which could not be created unless it was something in hand, can now be used without any restrictions if the space is controlled through Calling Shadow.

And what I created this time was not a shadow sword to end a life, but a sleep magic circle seal, and I could activate it remotely.

It’s not like we were able to cover the entire cathedral with shadows and put all the priests and paladins to sleep, but I think we’ve cleared out a lot of the obstructions.

Godsworth looked at the fallen angels and paladins around him with an expressionless face.

Perhaps because the priests treated the wounds on both arms from the spiral blast, the arms became clean and white again.

The gray wings turned black again.

Kwaaaaang!!!

A huge pillar of light fell where the angel stretched out his right arm, causing the floor to shake violently.

Still, when the priest and paladin who were supposed to infuse him with divine power did not wake up, he stuck his hand into the pillar of light and swung it.

Using the wave wheel, he dodged the large swinging pillar of light and created a spear of shadow and threw it towards the angel.

The spear of shadow that passed through the white wheel and the black wheel flew towards the angel, who was holding a pillar of light and clearly revealed his location.

The angel must have sensed my attack even in the darkness, so he created a pillar of light in his left hand and threw it.

Pow! Kwakagagak!

Although it did not contain full power, it became a solid spear of shadow with the explosive power obtained from the white ring and the black ring, but it was unable to pierce the pillar of light thrown by the angel.

But then something from before came to mind.

‘What? What power did the Shadow Circle originally have?’

It reminded me of when I used Skill Link-Boost to combine Flame Wheel and Shadow Mastery.

At that time, the flame circle gave power and explosive power, and the shadow circle added strength and speed to the spear.

‘The shadow circle can also have the power of acceleration. Then what about Heukryun, which can be said to be its superior?’

At some point, I gave up what I was originally able to do by dividing the negative attribute mana and heat into black and white.

However, after realizing that there were still some left, I once again created a shadow window through Shadow Craft.

Black wheel acceleration X5.

White wheel binding.

Five black rings appeared in the direction where Godsworth was standing, and a white ring appeared at the end.

Breaking wheel.

As he destroyed the black and white twin wheels, instantly he gained strength and filled his right arm with that strength and threw the spear of shadow.

The spear of shadow passed through the white wheel, filled with pure white flame, and gained speed as it passed through the black wheel.

Shoo! Shoo! Shooooo!

Even when using calmness, it was impossible to identify the main body of the Shadow Spear that had reached its maximum speed.

Because it has already pierced the body of an angel.

Kwaaaaang!

The angel hit by the black spear took a big step back along with the explosion.

Looking at the way he was standing firmly on his two legs, it seemed like the previous attack had not completely taken his life.

As I was raising my mana to throw the Spear of Shadow once again, an angel flew towards me.

Seeing that the wings were dyed gray, it was predictable that they would attack again using divine power.

I created a black and white ring inside my body again, completing the black and white twin rings, and observed the angel’s movements.

‘It’s different from before.’

Even though the fast-moving angel was quite close, he did not use his divine power.

You’d need a similar distance as me to swing or throw the pillar of light you’ve been using, right?

At that time, a pillar of pure white light coming down from the sky passed through the angel’s body.

The first thing that appeared from the pillar of light was a pure white gauntlet.

‘I wore armor.’

It was flying at high speed, so the moment the gauntlet was revealed, I could see an angel with black wings wearing pure white armor.

I wrapped my shadow energy around the shadow sword that was still wrapped around my right arm and punched.

Kwaaaaang!!!

Although I didn’t use Spiral Breakthrough, I felt like I was properly prepared for battle, not like the naked angel who had been wounded a moment ago.

Paang!

Next, the left fist flew out, and the right arm was raised again to block the attack.

Godsworth must have realized that increasing the distance would be disadvantageous to him, and it seemed like he would use his advantage of mobility to continue the close-range fight.

In that case, it would be better to use the Black Wheel Gauntlets, which are effective when up close, rather than wearing the Shadow Sword Weep.

The skill was connected while eliminating Shadow Sword Weep.

Skill Link-Unlimited.

Yeomwanggi (炎王氣). Flame Craft.

Shadow energy. Black Wheel Yunbo. Black wheel spiral.

I made gauntlets of white flame on both hands, similar to the ones I made when dealing with the demon Escrow.

The difference is that it has to be worn on both hands, so the five black rings cannot be placed on one hand, so the shape was slightly changed.

By assigning three black rings to one arm, the three black rings face one point, forming a triangle.

He created a black ring gauntlet in a shape suitable for targeting one point and began a counterattack.

White wheel acceleration.

Although they cannot fly as freely in the sky as angels who use wings, they can control their body movements in the air.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Every time Godsworth’s pure white armor collided with my fist, it broke and regenerated repeatedly.

The sacred power that can still be obtained from Caderal is close to infinite, so he pushed through with force.

(Master! Wouldn’t it be better to take a big hit?)

Shahemos, who was watching me fight, conveyed his opinion through the sound of his soul.

(You can recover mana only once with the Yeonyeong Shingoku (連影神功)… You have to create the optimal gap.)

Since it is not the night when I can freely recover mana, I must use Shadow Calling to recover mana with the shadows placed around me when I can deliver the final blow.

The angel’s wings turned gray again.

As the pillar of light passed through the body of the angel wearing pure white armor once again, a change occurred in both arms.

(Master, I think that person is imitating you…?)

As the three black wheels rotated around the gauntlet of white flame, a pillar of light was rotating around the gauntlet.

Kwa-ga-ga-ga-ga-gak!

Godsworth, who was able to maintain more mana by splitting off the pillar of light instead of the pure white armor, moved his black wings greatly.

I swung my fist faster and stronger, as if continuing to create pillars of light would be more efficient than regenerating armor.

Cooooo!

I fought while holding a white wheel in the air, but I was basically fighting while fending off the angel’s attacks, so I arrived at the ground before I knew it.

As I stood firmly on the ground and felt stable, I began to fight back.

Breaking through the loop current. Spiral. True jeol (斬切). Spread.

As the attack began with various powers, including piercing power, rotating power, cutting power, and spreading power, the angel began to fall back.

The wings turned gray, but they were only used to replenish the pillar of light and did not overwhelm me again.

‘Or are you learning?’

I haven’t been able to land a critical hit on Godsworth yet.

If you look at the amount of resources consumed, I am consuming much more.

For some reason, I remembered the time when I made fun of the imperfectly resurrected Suzaku.

Even back then, I took advantage of the geographical advantage of a volcano and used the Yeonyeomshingung (連炎神功) against an opponent that I could not normally defeat.

The difference now is that I am being attacked, but I was confident that I would get a different ending from the incompletely revived Suzaku.

Once again, the angel’s wings turned gray.

I changed my attack, aiming for the moment to replenish the pillar of light by consuming accumulated divine power.

Skill Link-Boost

White wheel acceleration. Black wheel acceleration.

A large black ring formed in the front and a white ring formed on the back. Heat radiated from the white ring, propelling the body forward, and as I passed through the black ring, my fist was in immediate contact with the angel’s chest.

Breaking through the spiral flow.

Kwahiah ahhhhh!

Godsworth’s pure white armor shattered and flew into the distance.

As I was about to chase down the flying angel and deliver the final blow, destroying several buildings that I had destroyed with a pillar of light, a woman’s loud cry stopped me.

“Cyan Raven! If you want to save your accomplice, Priest Yui, remove the darkness!”

When I turned my head in the direction of the voice, I saw that Yui was being held by a paladin in a place outside the range of Calling Shadow.

Yui didn’t directly defend me, she just said that angels are a disaster?

“It looks like you are an accomplice as expected. I never thought you would make a faithful priest lie about hearing an oracle.”

(Master, I tried it.)

(It seems so.)

“Now, clear away this darkness and leave Caderal, and we will not interfere further.”

I didn’t have much time to think when I saw the angel who had crashed down the building and got up again.

“I refuse.”

“I can’t help it!”

When I saw the Holy Knight raising his sword as if he was going to execute Yui, I used my skill.

Shadow Dominate.

Kaga River!

I gathered the shadows at the end of Calling Shadow’s range and summoned Shahemos.

“I don’t know how you can believe in an invisible God when you are deceived by the appearance of things that exist before your eyes.”

“Two Cyan Ravens?!”

Shahemos, who appeared as me in a black coat, swung the claws in both hands to shake off the paladin and captured Yui.

(I’ll go to a safe place and tell you. Hang in there, master!)

(I don’t know if I can hold on.)

After making sure to save Yui, I handed over quite a bit of mana to Shahemos to break through the siege of the paladins.

Is roughly 20% of the remaining mana now? It is less than when using Afterflame Breakthrough and Origin Absorb.

And the angel over there seems to have had some time, so his gray wings look white.

‘It’s not easy.’
