Chapter 102: An anomaly?
Kate didn’t hesitate. All six blood orbs snapped into orbit, flaring like mini red stars. One by one, they shot toward the big boss with insane power and speed and smacked him right on his face. The blood magic hissed as it hit his flaming body, disrupting his molten aura every time they struck.
Kate knew that she was the primary long-range, and ultimately, this fight outcome would come to rest on her shoulders. She did not want to disappoint Damon or her brother, so she used her utmost focus and concentration and put everything she had into this fight, conjuring more and more blood orbs as soon as the last ones shot forward.
However, the next second, she realized she was sorely mistaken.
Mark slammed his fists together, triggering a ripple of force. Runes along his arms ignited, and he directly used his raw strength to tear off a chunk of the stone wall from behind him. With a grunt, he hurled it like a boulder toward the throne. The rock caught fire mid-flight but still struck Ignaros squarely, making the boss grunt and stumble back a step.
Kate grinned at her stupidly awesome brother. But she was not about to be outdone. Her blood magic was a lot stronger than these dumb rocks. So she made her blood orbs extra juicy to deal more damage.
But just as she did that, another attack zoomed past her blood orb. A ball of fire. But unlike the normal balls of fire, this one packed a hell of a lot more. It was almost like the ones the fire witch cast, maybe even more powerful than hers. What the hell?
She turned around to see Damon grinning like a lunatic as he had another big ball of fire prepped and ready to go. With his new gear, added stats, and improved fire affinity, it would be a crime if he did not use fire magic attacks. It was time to fight fire with fire.
Kate’s jaw dropped. "You... you’re casting fireballs now?"
Damon didn’t answer right away. Instead, he lobbed the second one with a smooth underhanded motion. It arced high, then detonated against Ignaros’s chest like a miniature sun, sending a ripple of heat and molten fragments outward. The boss staggered again.
