Chapter 461: Wounded
Boom!
Aldrian’s aura flared to its maximum as he drew the full power of his domain into his body. Golden energy radiated from him, instantly breaking the high-level curse that had burdened him with so much negativity.
When the golden energy merged with the full force of his domain, the curse shattered. At the same moment, the emblem in Prince Wilmar’s grasp cracked, startling him.
Though he had already retreated behind the city’s barrier, Wilmar couldn’t help but feel a shudder deep in his soul at Aldrian’s sudden transformation.
An overwhelming instinct surged within him, he wanted to prostrate himself before Aldrian. It was a reaction born not of thought, but from the depths of his very soul.
Cardinal Carsius, who was already close to Aldrian with his spear strike nearly upon him, faltered for a moment due to the sudden explosion of Aldrian’s aura. He staggered in the air, but continued charging toward Aldrian with incredible speed.
Yet, in the next instant, it felt as though Aldrian’s movements were beyond his perception. Suddenly, Aldrian’s hand that grasping his sword moved in a slashing motion toward him.
In that moment, it was as if Aldrian had stepped into a different time and space. He tried to use his time laws to move faster, even if it meant gaining only 0.01 seconds. But that sliver of time was enough for him to unleash the Slash of Vanguard.
This technique was a simpler version of Slash of the End and its power and complexity couldn’t compare to the Pillar of Heaven’s Judgment, let alone the Slash of the End. But that didn’t matter.
What he needed now was speed. He needed a quick, simple strike that he could unleash in an instant to intercept the incoming spear attack.
As for the lack of power, he could compensate for it with the power of his domain.
