Although the general and his men were aware of the influence of Heepha's competence on them, they could not, however, rely on what they saw, touched, heard, felt, or even the taste of the blood on their tongues.
'Nightmare night is the full name of this skill; it mainly affects the five senses and magical perception. For example, I can make them feel the pain that a person suffers as a result of beheading or other types of more atrocious pain thanks to the sense of touch. As for the sense of view, it is always possible to disturb the latter by showing him everything that goes through my imagination. Same with the other senses.
-But the problem is that I can't manipulate the sixth sense of perception! Sigh, this is the only flaw I have with this skill, in addition to pumping myself three times the same amount of energy as when I cast my most destructive spells in my current state.
-Finally, this is not the time to envy the power of another. And even if my enemies can understand that, they can eliminate the effects of my skills by sealing their five senses and relying only on their magical perceptions.
-That will have the consequence of offering me extraordinary advantages against the latter. In other words, they're fucked!' She murmured, delighting in their confusions and frights with a sadistic smile.
The white and scarlet flames that the leader of the enemy camps and the silhouette of Heepha saw were only illusions, at least at 80%.
The Heepha, currently attacked by the general, was only one of his men but camouflaged by Heepha's illusory spell.
With this simple detail that was a possibility for the masked general, he did not violently attack the person trying to kill him with all his strength.
He had his reasons.
'According to her speed, it is impossible for this woman before me to be the real one! It's still a lure to push me to kill my men. Tsk, what a vicious skill! But, even if I manage to differentiate my men from her, thanks to my high level, it will be a challenge for them since they are in the same rank with approximate combat powers. And above all, she could take advantage of this situation by attacking me with minimal power before hitting me fatally at the right time (when I lower my guard).'
As a transcendent, he was by nature not only endowed with monstrous power but also with a sharp mind and cold blood exceeding the level of the other generals below his rank.
'Even if she has lost much of her powers, the experiences she had obtained on the battlefields for billions of years remain far superior to mine; that's why she was able to put us in such a pitiful state. But...It's time to reverse! I have no choice but this alternative; even if the elders punish me, my success on this mission will allow me to keep my head on my shoulders.' While growling these words in his mind, he releases much of his energy.
And unlike previous times, his aura was black at first before becoming golden.
Instantly, he hammered 'Heepha''s smiling face, which prevented him from seeing the real face of his subordinate by using raw energy for the second time.
(The first was when he cast his first skill to slow down Heepha in her cataclysmic flame sphere.)
And seeing his subordinate waltz five hundred kilometers from him, a vicious smile appeared on his lips.
'Since I can't differentiate the true from the false, I must kill everyone!' He continued thinking while Heepha, who was far from all the chaos, frowned.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt[Since my five senses are affected by your competence, all I have to do is rely on my magical perception of my five senses to identify the true from the false!]
He shouted these words with a furious crazy smile as he closed his eyes and disconnected himself from everything he saw, felt, heard, or even the atrocious pain of his body that continued to erode even though there was nothing left to corrupt because of his skeleton appearance which was also an illusion created from scratch by none other than Heepha.
'Tsk, I knew he would be a problem, this fucker!' Heepha's smile faded on her lips after seeing his actions.
'Finally, I expected him to understand, but it was a little faster than expected. Anyway, I can already see the end of this battle in the coming seconds.'
With this conclusion, She instantly manifested a snow-white crystal bow with her flames of icy frost and fired an arrow of the same attribute toward the enemy general!
-Swhooooshh!!!!----
While the arrow, even freezing the air by crystallizing it into snowflakes in its frantic race, whistled at the general even faster than a wink, reached the latter and...
BANG!!!
Simultaneously, the translucent spherical dome around him transformed into a block of ice and collapsed the thousandth second after its weakening!
'Tsk! Obviously, it would be too easy if a simple arrow injured him.'
Unsurprisingly, Heepha slams her tongue when she sees the general unscathed despite having taken her attack head-on.
But what made her angry was not to see the pitiful result of her attack but to see that the general had not been disturbed by her attack!
His eyes were always with an almost frightening and worrying coldness for Heepha, knowing very well that he was trying to reverse the roles.
[[Okay, if you want to play this game with me, I'd be happy to accompany you!]] She then whispered under her tongue and prepared to begin her genocide.
[...]
'What is this bastard still preparing? Finally, let's follow the initial plan by reducing their numbers so they cannot create other annoying formations.' She whispered suspiciously in the face of the general's silence.
She then showed hundreds of frost arrows around her.
-Swoosh!!!
Now that the formation of her enemies was broken, she was able to reach them with her arrows that were similar to the arrow she had fired at the general.
-Freeze... Craaack!!
But unlike the general, the last eight members could not survive in the face of the icy cold that instantly froze their cores and broke them, thus leading them to an inevitable death!
Meanwhile, her dire premonitions climax when she sees the general ignore her actions and genocide despite seeing his men fall one by one under her rain of Arctic arrows.
'I could easily kill his men because they were always plunged into the nightmarish. But I know he saw my attack coming, but why didn't he try to stop me? It's not normal, not at all!' While she was suspicious of the general's inaction, the latter proved her right!
-!!
Almost instantly, his power exploded as the energy accumulated in the bodies of his subordinates booed and was absorbed by him through his sword as a conductive pipe.
'-!! The bastard! He was waiting for me to begin killing his men to increase his chances of victory!'
By facing the derisory energy of the only survivor beyond what a low-ranking transcendent could produce, Heepha did not take long to understand her mistake.
But just before she even blinks her eyes,
-Slice!!
-Kuehk!
The general appeared in front of her three kilometers away with frantic speed, with his sword dividing the void by bringing Heepha's few flamboyant hairs with it.
[Hm? Were you able to avoid my attack despite your slowness? All right, you won't have this chance; next time, I will take your head with me.]
He calmly affirmed with his eyes closed and his other four senses in the same situation. He relied only on his magical perception to locate and attack Heepha's location.
"-!! So you intended to sacrifice your subordinates from the beginning to steal their powers? Is that how a general is supposed to behave?!" She growled these words as she felt the confidence of her enemies goes up a notch.
'Although I can see his movements, my body is too slow to move as before. If he had no trouble mastering this new speed, he could really have decapitated me when I least expected!' She continued in her thoughts by darkly frowning.
[You are not qualified to criticize me. As leaders, we understand each other. You have sacrificed your pawns and restored some of your powers because you know they will only be weight for you. But with absolute control of their skills and magical energies, you have managed to reverse the situation. That's also my case!]
He explained briefly by looking at his two and a half meters long katana without opening his eyes.
"..." Heepha did not take the time to explain to him by seeing that the masked man had not yet understood that Zakiel and Darka were still alive.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut on the other hand, she knew that the situation would, for the first time, threaten her existence.
"Hearing these arrogant words from the mouth of a low-ranking transcendent is really a shame for my existence."
[You are wrong, queen of flames, I may be a low-ranking transcendent, but my current power far exceeds my rank. And now, let yourself be captured gently, or allow me to bring your corpse to my superiors!] He shakes his head and corrects Heepha's words with a cruel smile under his mask.
"..."
In her silence, Heepha looked around her with perception and realized that their situations were no more beautiful; At the same time, she saw Linn and Aither fainting about a hundred kilometers from her, and Sabrina and Fraydja were fighting a fierce battle on the opposite side.
But she forgot to check Sylvia's situation just by noticing Sabrina fighting against one of Reha's henchmen instead of ensuring the safety of city dwellers in the kingdom of the Elves.
But the next moment, she noticed other strange red beasts with black parchments on their foreheads, guided by the mysterious girl she had found fainting Serena's sealed door at her first appearance.
Henia had taken command of the beasts in the shape of a blood wolf created by Sabrina's blood, more precisely with her |Concept of blood: pets| and had evacuated almost all city dwellers thanks to the help of Brenda and her elite squad who were still on the planet Alzania.
She didn't know when or how Sabrina had done it, but the good news was that she could now fight without restraint.
**Stella will evaluate Shadow's current situation and come back to give me a detailed report on what you will see and not on what he will order you to report to me.** She calmly pronounced these words with abysmal eyes, followed by the manifestation of black flames around her body.
Although she is the best at handling the flames of Gehenna, for unknown reasons, she has rarely used them.
But instead of executing Heepha's orders as usual, Stella remained hidden in her shadow and reported the information she did not know.
*General Shadow to complete his evacuation mission by saving only thirty percent of city dwellers in the kingdom of our lord.*
-!!!
*Unlike you, he faced the transcendent who holds absolute authority over the life of her creations.*
**I understand. I would ask him for more after completing my mission on this planet.** Her monotonous voice echoed in Stella's head after she heard her words.
Even if all actions, decisions, and conversations with Stella took no more than a minute, it allowed her enemy to become familiar with his new power.
Noticing his power on the threshold of the explosion, Heepha gave her last instructions to Stella and the other shadow soldiers who protected the kingdom of the elves with the help of their spherical barriers to prevent the debris of energy that came from the fields of the battles of the current titans.
**Stella, and the others, go and evacuate the others, including the primordials who are currently beating her against these bastards. After this mission, return to our original planet and await my return!**
After giving this order to all the shadow soldiers with her, she finally focused on the masked man.
[[Let's end with this game!]]
