Vile Evil Hides Under The Veil Chapter 734

Chapter 731 Lightning Maestro

Chapter 731 Lightning Maestro

Blitz Steps

Blitz Bolt

Solid Spark

Casting these spells, Alephee vanished into thin air from her position. She cast these spells with such finesse that nobody would believe that it was her first time using them.

Lightning sparked on her body. Up to her elbows and down to her knees, the arms and legs of the homunculus were completely coated with a purple-lightning element, making them appear to have lost their forms and become shapeless lightning-mana.

Eren was not standing still either. He cast his own spells while using time-element spells to boost his reactions. In the next moment, a distinct lightning spark bloomed in the middle of the open field, indicating that a clash had just taken place there.

But the participants were nowhere to be seen by ordinary onlookers. Even Ror was surprised by the movement spells both Eren and Alephee were using at their levels.

Eren was surprised by the weapon Alephee was battling him with. It was another of his spells that he was used to casting as a long-range attack. She was wielding two Solid Sparks in both her hands and strengthening them with Blitz Bolt.

“What in the world…”

Eren was surprised by the power of the spell he had been using all this time. He could see that Alephee was more skilled at casting his spells than he was. It kind of irritated Eren that she was flexing her skills while trying to show him how much he was lacking in using his spells.

There was no verbal communication necessary. They both knew what the other person was thinking even without the mental connection they shared. Alephee smirked while Eren had a frown on his face. At least one of them was having a good time.

Blitz Storm!

Alephee cast her AoE just when they clashed for the 17th time. She let it loose in such a manner that Eren was unable to flee in time. For the first time since his life had been rebooted, Eren felt the true horrors of clashing with the lightning-element ranker.

His entire body froze and his muscles atrophied as if they hadn’t been used for a long time. The blood in his system boiled and his skin started flaking. He had a killer headache and his vision started blurring. His legs were about to give up on him as well.

“Something’s wrong… Blitz Storm was never this powerful.”

Eren spoke before sending his mana circuits into hyperdrive. He quickly expelled the foreign mana that was trying to take over his nervous system and pulled back from the middle of the ground. He felt aggravated by the fact that he was made to retreat just a minute after the fight started.

Alephee wanted to press on with her advantage. But Eren wouldn’t learn to reflect on his mistakes in real time if she kept attacking him all the time. So she retreated as well, giving him the breather he so desperately needed.

“Hehe. I’m pairing Blitz Storm with a stacked Blitz Bolt. Each strand of lightning released by the Bitz Storm is a solo variant of the Blitz Bolt. Of course, the combo is going to be more deadly than simply using the AoE like an amateur.”

Eren’s eyes were opened wide when he heard Alephee pairing his go-to lightning element attack spell with his AoE attack. The finesses with which she did it made Eren unable to discern that the AoE had been altered. Because visually, nothing had changed in casting the spell. However, only his body knew how destructive his AoE had become after pairing up with Blitz Bolt.

Eren looked at the smiling Alephee with a serious expression. He had to say that what was standing in front of him was a monster more monstrous than anything he had come across so far.

She had become a lightning maestro in Eren’s eyes.

She made casting and pairing those combos seamless even when bound by the same restrictions as him. Was it that her way of lightning was more profound than him? Eren couldn’t tell. But he guessed that the answer wasn’t as simple as he was thinking it to be.

Alephee realized what Eren was thinking and clarified.

“Way of the element can give you an edge. But that is not the only way to gain an edge, Eren.

Absolute control over one’s mana circuits.

Even a simple act like controlling the mana circuits most efficiently can give you the edge you need. You’ve seen this before.

What I’m showing you right now is only the lightning-element variant of something you witnessed firsthand in your battle against that girl not too long ago.”

Alephee said and made one of the Solid Sparks disappear from her left hand. She was adopting a one-weapon style. Eren heard Alephee’s words and quickly scanned through his recent memories. He quickly zeroed in on a name.

“Altashia!”

Alephee chuckled before nodding at Eren. She changed the shape of the Solid Spark and turned it into an actual-looking sword made of pure lightning element mana. She tweaked the spell so much that it started looking like a different spell altogether.

Eren had stopped getting surprised by Alephee’s deeds anymore. Plus, the whole point of this spar was so that Eren could learn his flaws and improve his current battle style. And that’s what was happening at this point.

He listened intently as she spoke up.

“Why do you think I gave you such a detailed explanation about Altashia’s class? Remember her way of casting spells. She is way superior to you in this field.

Her control over her mana circuits is so profound that, she’d advance leaps and bounds every time she ranks up. I can bet you anything if you battle with her right now, she’d win. There’s no doubt in my mind about that.”

Eren furrowed his eyebrows when he heard Alephee speak. Even he knew he had brute-forced his way into victory against Altashia. And he had relied on his sudden breakthrough of elemental fusion to overcome Altashia’s spells.

He knew all this retrospectively. But that didn’t mean he should like it when someone reminds him of it. He pursed his lips before thinking of something. The guy knew it was about to sound like an excuse. Regardless, he spoke what was in his mind.
