“Don’t get me wrong, I don’t care about this island, but if we leave him alone, he will eventually come to the Arrogas Kingdom. I can’t ignore it as a prince, so I’ll just do it.”
ㅤ
Gale frowns and warns Luke.
ㅤ
Falx throws a sword at Gale who is like that.
ㅤ
“Enough with the preaching, I brought it for you.”
ㅤ
“Is that. . . the holy sword Banisher? It’s been fixed.”
ㅤ
What Gale had in his hand was the holy sword Banisher, which was shattered in the Behemoth battle.
ㅤ
The new blade that was released from the sheath is shining.
ㅤ
“It’s a masterpiece forged by the best magic swordsmith in the kingdom over half a year. It’s different from the one at that time. And I’m not the same as I was then.”
ㅤ
As Gale speaks, light is emitted from the blade of the Banisher.
ㅤ
The previous Banisher could not withstand Gale’s magical power and the blade was about to collapse, but the current blade was completely absorbing that enormous power.
ㅤ
“Amazing. . .”
ㅤ
Luke was genuinely impressed by the power of Gale and the holy sword Banisher.
ㅤ
Luke had analyzed that the Banisher was shattered in the Behemoth battle not only because his skin was tough, but also because Gale’s magical power was too strong.
ㅤ
The blade of the Banisher, which had not been used for a long time because it was treated as a national treasure, had become brittle.
ㅤ
On top of that, Gale’s magical power, which had just awakened and was unstable, exceeded the durability limit of the blade.
ㅤ
But Gale is different now.
ㅤ
The output of magical power is stable and there is no danger to the Banisher.
ㅤ
Gale had changed so much that he thought that if everyone worked together, they might really be able to do something.
ㅤ
“So, how are you going to take down that big one? It’s not going to be easy with that size.”
ㅤ
“Well, I’m thinking of hitting it with my most powerful attack magic. But it takes a little time to chant, so could you buy me some time until then?”
ㅤ
Luke explained the strategy to the two of them.
ㅤ
Only origin magic works on divine beasts.
ㅤ
He had finally been able to release it as he wished through repeated training, but he could only do it once a day, and it still took quite a bit of time to chant.
ㅤ
“Hmm, I don’t think our swords can reach his vitals. Let’s let the young one take the lead.”
ㅤ
“Hmph, I don’t like your plan, but I’ll go along with it this time. But I won’t forgive you if you fail.”
Gale and Cyphos seemed to agree.
ㅤ
“Then, I’ll leave it to you. Alma, I need you to guard the people around us.”
ㅤ
“Got it. Everyone else, come this way!”
ㅤ
Once Alma confirmed that Kiel and the others had evacuated, Luke began to chant.
ㅤ
Magical power is gathering around Luke.
ㅤ
Perhaps sensing that, Kraken stretched out his arm towards them.
ㅤ
“He’s already here!”
ㅤ
“I won’t lose this time!”
ㅤ
Cyphos and Gale jumped out.
ㅤ
“Absolute Domination!”
ㅤ
Gale’s slash tore through Kraken’s arm.
ㅤ
“Haah!!!”
ㅤ
The following slash cut off the arm.
ㅤ
“Amazing. . .!”
ㅤ
Luke was amazed at Gale’s power while continuing to chant.
ㅤ
In the battle against Behemoth, he had exhausted his magical power in just two strikes, but this time there was no such sign.
ㅤ
“Look, don’t let your guard down.”
ㅤ
Cyphos easily cuts off the arm that fell from above Gale’s head.
ㅤ
“Tsk, I could have handled that much!”
ㅤ
Gale jumps forward while clicking his tongue.
ㅤ
As expected of a master and disciple, their coordination was perfect.
ㅤ
Gale’s attack draws Kraken’s attention, while Cyphos follows up and restrains the surrounding attacks.
ㅤ
While it was a diversion, the two were gradually getting closer to Kraken’s head.
ㅤ
However, the closer they got to the center of the body, the thicker the arms became, and the tips began to extend around from behind.
ㅤ
Gradually, the two’s advance slowed down, and eventually they were completely matched with Kraken’s attack.
ㅤ
“Hmm, this is bad!”
ㅤ
Cyphos suddenly pushed Gale away.
ㅤ
Immediately after, a large tree growing nearby was split in two with a thunderous noise.
ㅤ
“Damn, is it a lightning magic!”
ㅤ
Gale rolls on the ground to create distance.
ㅤ
Looking up, several streaks of electricity were running across Kraken’s body.
ㅤ
Luke shouts.
ㅤ
“Be careful! It seems that Kraken can freely control its own bioelectricity. You can’t detect this with magical power.”
ㅤ
“You know a lot for a young one.”
ㅤ
Cyphos says as if impressed, and sheathes his sword.
ㅤ
He then calmly steps towards Kraken.
ㅤ
“What are you doing! You’re too defenseless!”
ㅤ
The pattern on Kraken’s body moved greatly.
ㅤ
The moment the lightning was fired, Cyphos’ body seemed to blur.
ㅤ
Immediately after, Kraken’s arm was cut off.
ㅤ
A huge chunk of meat charged with electricity fell to the ground and exploded.
ㅤ
“Even if it’s a lightning strike without magical power, there’s something that happens just before it. You just have to move after seeing that.”
ㅤ
Cyphos mutters to himself.
ㅤ
“That’s Cyphos Sparsa-sama’s divine technique, Sensen. . .”
ㅤ
Alma gasps next to Luke.
ㅤ
A slash at a speed exceeding 120m per second, the transmission speed of nerves, is impossible to react to, even for a demon.
ㅤ
“Here it comes again!”
ㅤ
The pattern on Kraken’s body moved greatly again.
ㅤ
But, this time nothing happened.
ㅤ
Rather, Kraken’s movement stopped.
ㅤ
“If you can’t read the timing of the lightning strike, you just have to not let it happen in the first place.”
ㅤ
Gale’s magical power bursts from both arms, controlling Kraken’s arms.
ㅤ
It’s the power of his unique magic, Absolute Domination.
ㅤ
“Amazing. . .”
ㅤ
Luke gasps again.
ㅤ
Both of them are incredibly strong.
ㅤ
With this, they might really be able to defeat the divine beast. . .
ㅤ
“Hey, it won’t last long! Finish the chant quickly!”
ㅤ
Gale barked.
ㅤ
It seems there is a limit to what can be done against a divine beast.
ㅤ
But if he can buy this much time, it’s enough.
ㅤ
The area around Luke begins to glow faintly.
ㅤ
It’s the light of the magical power created by the root magic.
ㅤ
(I can do this!)
ㅤ
However, the origin magic that Luke was about to release was suddenly interrupted by a huge tremor at his feet.
“Whoa?!”
ㅤ
“Whoa! What, what is this shaking?!”
ㅤ
“Kyaa!”
ㅤ
The tremor grows larger and larger, accompanied by a rumbling sound as if the earth is being shattered.
ㅤ
“Could it be. . .?”
ㅤ
Luke looked in the direction of the rumbling and couldn’t believe his eyes.
ㅤ
“Is another divine beast about to awaken?”
