Chapter 109: It Won’t End
"[Telekinetic Arrow Scattershot]!" Chanted Aster, taking aim and firing as the group of hooded figures came into sight, sending a barrage of rapid telekinetic arrows shooting towards them.
A couple of cries of pain rang out as a few of them got hit, while the rest swiftly dispersed and spread out, before launching a volley of Spells towards Aster, Tacitus and Nile.
"[Nullification Wall]," Tacitus chanted as the attacks closed in, before disappearing as they struck his wall of nullifying energy.
The trio then split up and shot towards the hooded figures, who continued firing their Spells. Tacitus nullified their attacks and Aster blocked them with his telekinesis, while Nile deflected the attacks shooting towards him with his dual axes, batting them away before leaping forward as he closed in on one of the hooded figures.
He swung his right axe down towards the top of the figure’s head, who narrowly blocked it with a sword, before she opened her mouth and fired out a burst of flames at him.
He quickly tilted his head across, grimacing as the flames grazed his left cheek and ear, before whipping his other axe across, a choked gasp ringing out as he sliced through her throat before she could react.
An agonized cry of pain then rang out from a few meters away, as Aster fired off a telekinetic slash and severed the arm of one of the hooded figures, blood spraying out and splattering across the dirt as his arm hit the ground with a thud, right as Aster fired a piercing burst of telekinesis and blasted a hole through the middle of the figure’s chest.
A deafening crash echoed out as Tacitus slammed his sword onto the ground, triggering a shockwave and knocking a few of the hooded figures off balance, before he shot towards one of them and unleashed a powerful forward thrust of his sword while running his Mana through it, the large blade expanding before a loud crunch rang out as the end of the blade slammed onto the middle of the figure’s chest, shattering his ribcage.
He shakily stumbled back and collapsed onto his knees as he coughed out blood with an agonized wheeze, before falling over and slumping against the ground, his ribs having pierced into his lungs and heart.
