Chapter 527 The Princess in Shining Armor
The three Lords were ready to fight Alice and finish her off quickly. She was only a Tier-5 Lord, just like them. However, given their age and combat experience, they ought to win without even breaking a sweat.
The woman with the violet string Soultrait, whom Michael named Violet, released her Soultrait through her other hand. Hundreds of violet strings shot out of the tip of her fingers with great velocity. They crossed the short distance to Alice in the blink of an eye and cut through the buildings and concrete around her.
The surrounding structures were cut apart and diced into small pieces, whereas the violet strings restrained Alice's movements. Simultaneously, the two other Lords unleashed their Soultraits. The body of one Lord expanded. His physique was reconstructed rapidly, his bones turning into metal and his flesh growing increasingly more resilient. The Lord's height increased to over four-meters and hair grew all over his body, further strengthening his defenses. The Lord's Soultrait turned him into a beast, therefore, granting him the name Beast.
Beast passed through the opening Violet left for him and emerged in front of Alice. Alice was just about to block Beast's attack when she lost control of the energy residing in her body. Alice required only a moment to realize that her energy veins had been sealed by the last Lord, preventing her from using her energy to reinforce her body physically, or to use her Soultrait.
Attempting to use the power inside her was painful and exerted a toll on his body. However, Alice was familiar with this Soultrait. She knew the owner of this Soultrait very well, and she was overly familiar with the downsides of this Soultrait; the increasingly high energy consumption. Energy Seal was a Soultrait that required a tremendous amount of energy to be initiated and maintained. As long as the user possessed enough energy to maintain Energy Seal, it was near-impossible to break it. Unfortunately, with increasing resistance of the target, the user would have to use more energy to maintain the Energy Seal.
With that in mind, Alice resisted the Energy Seal with all her might, while dealing with Beast as well. Beast's claws swept down, sinking into her shoulder, and tearing her frozen armor apart. Alice didn't expect the brute force of Beast's attack to be that high, but she allowed the attack to impact. In exchange, her longsword cut through the highly resilient fur and hide of Beast's leg. The longsword cut into Beast's leg but it didn't cut deep enough to inflict serious damage.
This left Alice with no other choice but to pull the sword back and struggle a battle of attrition. She had to stall time until the Energy Seal on her would break. She retracted the sword and retreated, only for dozens of violet strings to cut into her frozen armor, slicing it apart piece by piece. Beast pushed closer to Alice, acting like the cut in his leg didn't bother him. In fact, that was not far from the truth. After transforming into a beast, Beast's natural regeneration increased rapidly. His wound stopped bleeding and it was only a matter of minutes before the wound would heal completely.
The Lord using Energy Seal focused on his Soultrait. He didn't jump into the battle with Beast. Instead, he allowed Beast and Violet to focus on inflicting damage and stalling time. The three Lords required time. Just like Alice, they had an ace up their sleeves. Initially, they wanted to capture Michael and escape using the spatial-type Soultrait of James. Unfortunately, Alice killed James before he could move them out of the city. Therefore, they had to resort to Plan B. Trace the roots of this material to novelb!n•
The Lord using the Energy Seal retrieved a golden crystal and a dozen Common Energy Stones from his War Rune's spatial storage. He crushed the Common Energy Stones, resulting in a spontaneous explosion of power to fill the air around them. The highly purified, compressed energy swept through the surrounding for a moment until the Lord tapped into the compressed energy. He channeled the energy into the golden crystal, slowly filling it with energy.
The golden crystal began to glow dimly as the highly purified power filled it, bright sparks illuminating the sky.
'Spatial energy!' Michael realized, his eyes narrowing the moment he discovered the golden sparks the golden crystal manifested.
The golden crystal generated spatial energy. It required a tremendous amount of energy, but that hardly seemed like an issue given the purified energy that permeated the air.
Michael had no idea how much control the Lord had over the spatial energy, but Spirit Eyes allowed him to see that the golden crystal established a faint link to the Lord.
'Can he create spatial portals according to his will?' He wondered, his expression souring.
His monstrous body was like a bullet-train as he charged at Alice, flinging her through the air like a feather. Alice smashed hard into the nearest building. She crashed through the walls of the old, traditional building, which collapsed on top of her right after.
"How much longer do you need, Esmald?" Violet asked the Lord with the Energy Seal Soultrait.
She turned her attention back to Michael, who was supposed to be tied up like a lovely christmas present. But he was not there anymore. Her violet strings were coiled around a corpse...the corpse of a Tekur. Somehow, the corpse of a Tekur had replaced Michael in the tied knot of violet strings.
Michael managed to escape Violet's confinement of strings when she executed her Inheritance Technique. Storm of Bladed Strings required her entire focus, and a massive amount of energy. She executed the Inheritance Technique using her full mastery to eliminate Alice Zenovia before they could run away. By doing so, Violet created a small opening for Michael to escape, and he took it.
He made use of her distraction and escaped. However, instead of running for his life, Michael emerged in the old, collapsed building where he found Alice.
lightsnοvεl Her entire body looked like a hundred people had stomped over her. She was bruised black and blue and dozens of deep gashes decorated her fair skin. Michael had never seen Alice so beaten up. In fact, she had never been beaten, or so he thought.
The Energy Seal on her body was still intact.
Michael disregarded that and exerted Extraction to remove the Energy Seal as swiftly as possible. Thereafter, he used his newest creation, Heavenly Realm, with the Shard of Archangel's Grace inside him. His Soul Power was quickly drained but the wounds all over his body and that of Alice healed rapidly.
Alice opened her eyes and looked at Michael. The golden stigmatas covering his body grew dimmer and they were about to disappear entirely. Alice groaned and got up from the ground.
"I didn't expect you to come to rescue me. They're here to kidnap you, you know?" She joked lightly, knowing damn well that there was no time to joke right now.
"How about you beat them up a little bit?" Michael asked, ignoring her bad joke.
Instead, he used the energy he'd extracted from the air around him to apply several layers of Enhancement onto Alice's body.
"That should be enough," He mumbled,
"Go, rip them apart!"
