Chapter 532: The Flames of War
Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
After listening to General Zili’s story, Lei Luo understood the relationship between Zuri and Shinji Sakakami.
Just as Lei Luo was about to say goodbye to Zili and prepare to go to the festival the next day, the sky above Sakakami’s house began to crack open and a dark aura spread within.
The air was filled with a familiar smell that Lei Luo was familiar with. Lei Luo’s pupils constricted. He knew that this was the smell of mana.
“Quickly gather the army. The Demon World is here.”
Lei Luo looked at the crack in the sky with a heavy expression. How was this possible? The seal had not been completely removed. How did they get out?
Although he had doubts about the people from the demon world, Lei Luo did not panic at all. He placed his hand in front of his chest. Surging mana started to revolve along the anti-magic array. The originally bright magic array became low and violent.
Lei Luo could feel the power of the magic element blessed with the saintly being. His body was constantly shrinking. It was different from the body that was blessed with the magic array. Through the magic element blessed body, Lei Luo could clearly feel the power flowing in his body, including the regeneration ability.
This was a perfect body that was between the demon race and humans. It was like the most perfect creation of God.
Feeling this power, Lei Luo began to cast a spell at the crack, chanting in his heart. “Dark corrosion.”
The magic array on Lei Luo’s chest began to condense, and the magic array that gradually lit up on his body finally converged on his chest. The black color on Lei Luo’s body became brighter and brighter. People who glanced at it even once would lose themselves, as if they were in a trance.
This spell was a discovery that Lei Luo made when he used the mana element. By condensing the magic power on his body and concentrating the magic array on a single point, he could display a spell that surpassed his level. However, the consequence was that Lei Luo would not be able to use magic for a period of time.
He understood in his heart that if they did not stop the demon world there, it would be a true disaster when they found the secret chamber.
The darkness continued to spread, covering up the cracks in the air. Lei Luo could feel the aura of the demon world’s fleet continuously approaching. They used the [ dark corruption ] to change their course, but the position of the cracks did not change in their eyes. However, their perception of the direction would have a huge difference.
This would cause them to keep opening towards the cracks but not reach the position of the cracks.
The mana was continuously converted, and then the mana was channeled into the magic array. As the consumption increased, Lei Luo’s mood became heavier and heavier. Why was no one coming? Did something happen?
On General Zili’s side, while he was gathering troops, he was also using the magic conductor to check on Lei Luo’s condition. Once Lei Luo could not hold on any longer, she would immediately order the cannons to fire at the cracks in the air.
“General, the ship has been tampered with and can not set sail immediately. Let the heavy armor go to support first. The fleet will stay in place to provide firepower support.”
The adjutant of Zili hurriedly ran to Zili and gave him advice.
Although Zili was very dissatisfied, she had no choice but to do so now. Thinking of this, Zili informed the Grade-7 mage in her residence to go to support Lei Luo and let him destroy a portion of the demon world’s fleet first.
One had to know that the price to open such a large-scale spatial rift was not small. It was common for ten fleets to enter and leave one fleet. Therefore, the longer the fleet they sent stayed in the rift, the greater the loss.
However, it was too strange. It would be too difficult to launch an attack at that time, unless they could grasp the specific location of the seal or knew that the fleets could not take off.
Thinking of this, Zili’s eyes suddenly became sharp. She said to her adjutant, “Quickly find the people who recently repaired the fleets and bring them here. Find out what they did. Quick!”
After giving the order to the adjutant, she looked at the sky that was gradually cracking in the distance with a worried expression. She knew that something was wrong. There was something wrong with that stone. It could probably let them know the location of the seal. At that moment, she knew that she could only rely on Lei Luo.
Meanwhile, at that moment, Lei Luo was not in a good condition. Using spells that were higher than his level for a long period of time was a great burden on his body. He could no longer control his spells with high precision. [ dark corrosion ] was spreading out along Sakurazaka’s house, as a result, more and more citizens of the northern frontier would slowly lose their minds and end up attacking the people around them.
Sweat was dripping down Lei Luo’s face like a waterfall, and the scenery in his eyes was starting to blur. He did not know what was supporting him, but he was still trying his best to maintain the existence of his spells.
Crossing space consumed a huge amount of mana. The conversion of mana between Lei Luo and the mana, which caused the area around him to be a vacuum of mana.
Trembling, he took out the contaminated mana stone from his pocket and laughed self-deprecatingly. He did not expect that he would be the one to use it in the end. How ironic.
Did Lei Luo not know the consequences of using this mana stone? Of course, but he had no choice. He did not have any excess mana and mana. Rather than waiting for his [ ultimate dark invasion ] to destroy the Sakamata family or for the demon world to come and destroy the northern border, this choice seemed not bad.
He used his last bit of strength to crush the magic stone. A powerful darkness that was deeper than the [ ultimate dark invasion ] devoured Lei Leo. Without being transformed, the contaminated mana was completely absorbed by the holy body. In the end, it turned into a magic array that revolved once and was output into the magic in the air.
Crazy and bloodthirsty thoughts kept squeezing into Lei Luo’s head, causing his mind to explode in chaos. Slowly, he was about to stop releasing the magic, but the sky in front of him flickered. It kept pulling his consciousness back and forth from the edge of slaughter and redemption.
In this state, Lei Luo’s eyes began to turn blood red. He slowly raised the sky from the clouds, and the sword in his hand swayed as if it was about to fall at any moment.
The magician in the black robe in the distance saw Lei Luo’s actions and rushed to Lei Luo’s side, shouting, “No!”
Hearing the pleasant female voice from afar, Lei Luo sped up the sword in his hand and slashed at his own head. The female magician in the distance saw this and used all her magic, hoping to save Lei Luo in the end.
However, she was still one step too late. Lei Luo cut the sky from the top of his head. A black shadow screamed and escaped from his body. The last thing that Lei Luo saw was the shadow smiling strangely at him and then disappearing.
The female magician who had rushed over from afar almost dropped her jaw when she saw this scene. He…he was not dead! He had even created a strange thing.. She did not notice that a black thing had slipped into her body.
