Chapter 351 - Battle at the Moon Tower: Final Struggle 1

"Hmm...?"

Yujin slowly opened his eyes.

"Jin!!"

Alophy quickly flew at his c.h.e.s.t and cried as she was worried about his condition.

"Ugh!"

He g.r.o.a.n.e.d in pain as he sat up before he looked around. He just remembered that he fell unconscious after fighting the two executives of the Moon Tower, trying to buy some time for Yuko to evolve.

He looked around and found that Lumilia and Lynn were around him.

"What happened to the battle?"

He asked while patting Alophy’s tiny body. He already guessed that outcome of the battle but he had to confirm it for not to think about it.

Alophy wiped the tears in her eyes and answered his question, "Yuko successfully evolve and defeated those two... She also defeated Lumilia and Lynn’s opponent."

"Well, thanks to you that Yuko evolved without any problem," Lumilia said with a smile.

"What about the rest?" Yujin asked.

"We have no idea what’s happening up there." Lumilia shook her head. She was worried about Alice and Souta who were fighting on the floor above. She could use the transmission talisman to contact them but that would distract them if they were in the middle of a battle. That’s why she’s holding back herself from using it.

"Brando went to the upper floors to provide some help. The two of us stayed here to stop the bleeding of your wounds." Lynn said in a low voice.

"What...? Brando is here?!" Yujin was surprised when he heard her words. He knew that they left Brando in the Ladros City to rest.

"Yes, he is here. I don’t know how he found this place but it seems that he really wanted to help us in rescuing Cl.u.s.ter." Lumilia said as she recalled Brando’s expression when she saw him a few minutes ago.

"I’m sure that he hadn’t recovered enough from his last battle..." Yujin said as he looked down.

"Yes, that’s why we heal some of his wounds and casted buff spells on him before he went up," Lumilia said.

"I see..."

Yujin nodded and he tried to stand up but his body was assaulted by intense pain.

"Argh!"

Before he fell down Lumilia and Lynn supported him.

"I don’t think I could fight in my current condition. You could leave me here and follow Brando up there."

Yujin said as he checked his body. The mana in his mana pool was completely drained and he also couldn’t use spirit power in his condition. This was the side effect of using the [Spirit Breaker] without mastering it.

This technique heavily burdened his body to the point that he almost shattered his mana pool from the enormous amount of spirit power. Normally, spirit power wouldn’t break his mana pool instead it would receive great benefits from it but the [Spirit Breaker] technique changed the gentle nature of the spirit power.

It was like a best feram with different properties.

"You could hardly move your body and you wanted us to leave you here?" Lumilia frowned when she heard his words.

"Yes, Souta needs your help better than I. Also, there’s no opponent on this floor so there’s no danger for me if I stay here." Yujin explained patiently so that the two could understand him.

"Okay, I understand but don’t do anything for now and just focus on resting," Lumilia said to him.

"Okay," Yujin nodded and he turned his head to Yuko who was on the opposite side of the room. "Thanks for helping me."

Yuko was far away because Lumilia and Lynn wouldn’t be able to use their spells under the pressure of her best feram. For best feram not to affect people’s mana they had to practice controlling their mana and strengthening it. Liquefying and solidifying one’s mana was the way aside from controlling mana.

...

On the top floor...

*Ding!*

[You’re intelligence reached a threshold!]

[Your mana recovery had increased by 200 mana per hour!]

[Your mana pool had increased by 500 points!]

[Your spell power had increased by 5%!]

[You’ve gained the skill "Lower Mana Breathing Technique"!!]

His mana recovery had increased by 200 mana per hour making his mana recovery a total of 386 mana per hour. The speed of his mana recovery was already great but in battles, he still needed to consume mana potion to keep up with this as no one would wait for one hour for him to recover a little bit of his mana.

At this moment, his total mana already reached 3,742 points. He didn’t need a long sleep for his mana to completely recover.

The skill [Lower Mana Breathing Technique] was a great skill to recover mana. As long as he practiced it, it would increase his mana recovery by 50 at every level.

Also, this skill was pretty special like his [Monster Force I]. This skill can’t be level up using skill points. He could only level it up by promoting his class or by adding 100 free attribute points to this skill.

Souta decided to allocate the remaining 110 free attribute points to his agility and dexterity attributes. His agility was 788 and his dexterity was 735, so he divided his points into these two making his agility 843 points and dexterity 790 points.

Lastly, he had 43 skill points and he used 35 points to level up his [Night Overlord’s Aura] to level 8.

[Night Overlord’s Aura]: A skill that was created by the Evernight God in ancient times. It was one of his signatures skill that made people tremble in fear of his presence.

Effect: +26% power to all darkness attribute spells and combat arts if activate. +140 points to all attributes and 50% resistance to darkness attribute spells and combat arts if activated.

This was enough for him.

Swoosh!

His figure suddenly vanished and appeared in front of Brando who was receiving the attack of the seven humanoid golems.

"You did great, Brando. You can leave everything to me." Souta said as he swung his sword and blasted the golems away from him.

Bang!

The black aura was like a smoke coming out of his body and it gives off dangerous vibe.

[Night Overlord’s Aura]!

The increase in his overall abilities wasn’t that great but the [Night Overlord’s Aura] filled up what he lacks. This skill was a great combat arts but for god-level, it wasn’t enough.

He didn’t know how could the Evernight God use this skill at his peak but he had a feeling that something will happen if he reached god-level. The territory of god was unknown to him as he didn’t reach this level in the game. And he reached was level 80 and he was half of that level.

’I will not hold back in using my mana.’ Souta poured a large amount of mana in the vajra sword. Since Curdova’s mana was liquefied, he had to use double amount of what Curdova was using to match his strength.

Curdova thrust his halberd forwards and Souta swung his sword to parry it.

Boom!

Both of their weapons collided causing a powerful shockwave.

Curdova opened his eyes widely in shock. He couldn’t believe what he felt just now. Just from that exchange of blows, he found that Souta grew stronger than before.

Souta was stronger, faster, and his mana was enormous than before. He wouldn’t believe it if this didn’t happen at all.

’Is he holding back before?’

A question popped up in his mind but he quickly pushed it out as Souta has no reason to hold back against him.

’Still, this wouldn’t be enough to defeat me... A little bit of power-up isn’t enough to match my power.’

He said to himself as he slashed his weapon repeatedly.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Souta parried all of his opponent’s attacks. He was using all of his active skills along with the [Night Overlord’s Aura].

Both of their figures disappeared and appeared in another place creating a powerful shockwave as their weapons collided.

The seven humanoid golems were helping Curdova putting Souta at disadvantage. Every second blood was spurting out of his wounds dyeing the ground in red.

Brando who was watching the battle couldn’t follow their movements with his eyes. He could only feel the aftershocks of their attacks every time their attacks collided.

The battle in front of him was entirely on a different level.

He stood up and wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth. Even though his body felt heavy, he still had to do something about those seven humanoid golems.

"Huf..."

He took a deep breath and estimated how long he could still fight in his condition. He could feel that the buff spells that Lynn had casted on him were wearing off.

If the spell completely wore off then he was going to collapse. Souta just said to leave this battle to him but how could he let Souta fought these on his own. He had to help him somehow.

As long as he could move he would provide help.

"Okay... Let’s do this..."
