YM778.TV Chapter 309: Lightning Lord
Using this ogre as cover, she snapped her finger and overlayed her Violet Flames over Void Fang.
Void Flux – Cleave!
Releasing a horizontal slash, she cut through the group of beasts running towards her while jumping back to dodge the ranged attacks.
\'Seems like you\'re enjoying yourself.\' Alice smiled as she could sense Alyss\'s jubilation. Her excitement as she danced on the edge of life and death. The rapid heartbeats in her chest while figuring out new ways to use her ability.
\'Naturally! How often do I get to go all out like this?\' Alyss laughed.
Creating a pair of metal claws, she slammed her hand against the ground as countless blades pierced up, stabbing through the legs and into the bodies of the approaching beasts.
Clenching her fist, each of these blades transformed into a Void Flux that detonated within them as she sensed danger from above and immediately created a swirling storm of blood and fire to protect herself.
*BANG!!!!
A torrent of lightning struck down, clashing violently against this barrier but Alyss\'s flames managed to hold on and began to consume the lightning in an attempt to protect its master.
Sliding back from the impact, Alyss narrowed her eyes at the armoured beast who stood at the source of this lightning.
Scaled obsidian armour coated every inch of its body. A skull with two large horns and a pair of crimson eyes. Beneath the bones, crimson energy acted as the core of its behind as a large mane of white hair fluttered behind him.
[Lightning Lord - ✦✦✦✦✦✦]
\'Six stars… Boundary of becoming an Abyss Lord.\' Alyss frowned.
In his hand, he held a lightning blade that constantly crackled with energy.
Even with the fact that she\'s drank five star blood and gained the power of Tiamat, just looking at the sword gave Alyss chills.
\'Are you worried?\' Alice asked but Alyss simply grinned.
\'Not really. It\'s just going to be a little difficult to kill this b*stard.\'
However, her thought was cut short when the Lightning Lord clasped its hands together. A burst of golden aura erupted from his body as Alyss\'s pupils shrunk in shock.
\'Sh*t! Second Resonance!\'
Unable to escape the range, Alyss watched as her body was dragged into the personal realm of the Lightning Lord.
From darkness, countless lightning strikes illuminated the space. A sea of clouds with a web of lightning crackling around them.
And in the centre, a castle floating in the sky hung proudly, absorbing all of the lightning around it.
Lightning Lord Second Resonance – Castle of Striking Lightning.
Gritting her teeth, Alyss tried her best to dodge or block the lightning but each strike would manifest in front of her, rendering her unable to react in time.
*BANG!!!
Each crackle would tear off chunks of her body and even with her regeneration, Alyss found herself at the back foot.
Meanwhile, the Lightning Lord stood in front of its castle, unphased by what was happening and simply stared at her without emotion.
\'We can\'t keep defending like this.\' Alice frowned.
This was the first time she\'s seen her twin struggle this hard. Even against Tiamat\'s Second Resonance, she was able to react but with the Lightning Lord? All she could do was defend to the best of her abilities.
She wasn\'t given a single chance to approach nor was she allowed time to gather her strength to attack.
Any opening she revealed would be followed up by several lightning strikes.
"F*ck!" Alyss shouted out in annoyance as she activated her partial Bloodline Release out of anger.
Slamming her hand down, violet flames roared around her in defiance but it couldn\'t push back the lightning.
Seeing this, the Lightning Lord took a step forward and raised his hands towards Alyss.
Framing Alyss with his hands above and below her, the Lightning Lord narrowed its eyes before clasping his hands together.
*RUMBLE!!!!
The clouds were parted in an instant as Alyss widened her eyes in shock. Blades of lightning crashed down from above and pierced up from below while a cage of lightning prevented her from running.
*BANG!!!!
Feeling the lightning rush through her body, Alyss let out a silent cry as she tried her best to heal her wounds and dissipate the damage by flooding her own body with Violet Flames. But these flames did little to soothe her pain as the feeling of flesh being seared, stripped and regenerated constantly repeated itself.
The barrage of lightning lingered for a moment before fading away and Alyss could barely stand straight while the smell of charred flesh flooded her senses.
With Alyss in danger, Alice didn\'t hesitate to take matters into her own hands.
\'Let me take over for a bit.\' Alice frowned while Alyss gritted her teeth.
\'I… I can handle this!\' She retorted but anyone could see that this was a poor match up for her.
\'This isn\'t the time to be stubborn!\'
Biting her lip, Alyss spat in annoyance before handing control back to Alice.
As the chains faded away, Alice glared at the Lightning Lord who seemed shocked by her recovery.
Most beasts and humans would\'ve perished under that strike, yet she stood firm.
Taking a deep breath, Alice glanced down at her own body and gritted her teeth.
Killing intent burst forth from her small body as she activated Resonance without hesitation.
Seeing that Alice still had fight left in her, the Lightning Lord raised his hands and called forth and storm of lightning to crash down on her.
But this wasn\'t the same opponent as earlier.
Entering her Zone Stance, Alice turned Void Fang into a blade before holding her breath.
Absolute Zone!
Unleashing a wave of cleaves into the sky above her, the slashes erupted into a pool of blood and absorbed the lightning.
Aiming her hand at the Lightning Lord, Alice narrowed her eyes and snapped her finger.
*BANG!!!!
A barrage of lightning crashed down upon the Lightning Lord as he was shocked to find that his own attack was redirected back to him!
How? When? What happened?
Confusion filled his mind and despite the lack of damage, this was the first time he\'s seen such an ability. Even beasts with the singular focus on mastering the Void couldn\'t redirect his attacks like this.
This precision and speed, it was unbelievable!
Holding her blade by her waist, Alice stomped down with her foot before slashing the air in front of her, creating a tear in space before jumping in.
Thinking that Alice was trying to escape his Resonance via the Void, he wanted to interfere when he felt a chill behind him.
Turning his head, he saw a pair of murderous eyes as Alice\'s figure was emerging from a pool of blood behind him!
\'When was the pool here?\' He thought in shock as he attempted to counter.
Jumping back, he conjured a cascade of lightning bolts towards Alice.
However, motes of blood manifested above her, turning into mirrors that accurately teleported his attack elsewhere.
Void Flux – Cleave!
Unleashing a slash towards the beast\'s neck, Alice frowned upon seeing him turn into a mass of lightning to run away.
"Where do you think you\'re going?" Gathering flames towards her finger, she condensed it into a single spark before firing a Void Flux towards the Lightning Lord.
However, she wasn\'t done.
Once again, using the power of her fourth Sigil, Alice sent the attack into the Void before teleporting it behind the beast!
Imploding into a surge of Violet Flames that latched onto the beast\'s body, Alice prepared her next strike.
Having enough of this farce, the Lightning Lord let out a roar before enveloping his body in a mass of lightning.
Towering above Alice in the golden radiance of lightning, he created a blade and slashed towards Alice.
*BANG!!!
His attack was halted mid swing as a mass of metal blades erupted from his body.
This entire time, Alice had been filling this realm with her blood mist and finally put the idea that Nyer suggested to the test.
And the instant he created his enlarged form, the Lightning Lord unknowingly gathered the blood mist into the body of lightning which allowed her to manifest the metal within its body.
Yet this was far from over.
From each of the blades, violet flames burst forth with the assistance of Tiamat\'s power, consuming the power around them as Alice tensed her grip around Void Fang.
Partial Bloodline Release!
Gritting her teeth, she released a horizontal slash towards the beast. It was similar to her Void Flux – Cleave yet different. The power of the void radiated from the slash, tearing the Resonance apart as it travelled towards its target.
*CRACK!!!
Colliding against the beast\'s chest, the sound of glass shattering could be heard as the attack shredded through its form with ease! With his defences already weakened, it was a simple task for her attack to break through.
A single line of brilliant violet stretched across the sea of lightning and clouds, ripping the Resonance apart as the beast coughed up a mouthful of blood. A single slash could be seen, bisecting him diagonally from the shoulder to his waist.
Lightning squirmed in a futile attempt to heal his wounds but the Violet Flames hindered his regeneration.
Appearing in front of the beast from a blood mirror, Alice unleashed the final attack to snuff out the existence known as the Lightning Lord.
