"Jayna is mine and mine only!!" said Angus with a crazed tone.
Angus kept striking King Leon's sword harder and faster. King Leon feels each of Angus' strikes is getting heavier. He feels like not parrying a twin sword but a hammer. *Ting* *Ting* *Ting*
Couldn't stand being pushed back, "Don't get cocky!!" yelled King Leon while putting more strength in his sword.
*Whossh* Angus is getting thrown back by King Leon's force. At this moment, Jayna is enveloped by a hot crimson fire with the shape of a pair of wings. The wings stretch open and shoot countless feathers made of fire [Phoenix Rain].
All the fire feather moves in the blink of an eye towards King Leon. King Leon immediately used [Blink] to dodge the attack as he was surrounded by the fire feather. *BOMMM* *BOMMM* *BOMMM* Each of the feathers releases a quite big explosion.
Looking at such firepower, King Leon couldn't help but have a cold sweat. Before King Leon recovers from his surprise, another Phoenix Rain is already coming to him.
'No way, how could she keep using such a devastating attack!??' thought King Leon while keeping dodging the Phoenix Rain using [Blink].
After blinking a few times, King Leon suddenly feels massive mana coming from his side. He finds Angus already charging enormous fire mana towards his twin sword.
"Eat this!! [Twin Sword Art - Twin Dragon Fang]." yelled Angus as a dragon silhouette appeared behind him.
'This is dangerous!!' thought King Leon as he wanted to use another blink.
At this split second, Angus smiled as he knew King Leon had fallen into his trap.
"[Domain - Asura]" whispered Angus.
Then, King Leon feels entrapped in space. He feels like time has stopped and a huge demonic figure appears behind Angus. King Leon feels a tremendous amount of bloodthirst coming from Angus and unconsciously fears towards him.
However, his vast combat experience managed to get his bearings and try to parry Angus's attack. Still, he feels like being inside heavy water and moves slowly despite using all his strength.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing that the attack is coming closer towards him, "[Possession] BLOOD!!" yelled King Leon.
Suddenly, massive energy and a huge bloodthirst erupted from King Leon and countered Angus's domain and attack. *BOOMM* Both of them clashed with each other and completely obliterated the arena, even cracking the whole building.
After a few moments of confrontation, Angus gets pushed back and slashed by King Leon. Fortunately, he managed to hold back at the last moment and not cut Angus in half instantly. The attack keeps going and destroys the entire building part behind Angus.
Seeing Angus lose the confrontation and be slashed by her father, Jayna immediately comes towards Angus and holds him before slamming towards the rubble.
"Angus!!" called Jayna worriedly while also taking back the remaining fire that kept enveloping Angus's body.
However, Angus didn't reply as he fell unconscious, but his wounded slash also started to heal. Still, it is not as fast as before since the divine magic also breaks from their last confrontation.
At the same time, King Leon also appears in front of them. Seeing her father's sudden appearance, Jayna immediately readies her weapon to protect the unconscious Angus.
At this time, King Leon could feel Jayna's determination to protect Angus even with her own life. Looking at this, King Leon could only sigh.
"Did you realize that he not only loves you but also madly obsesses over you?" said King Leon.
"Yes, I know. I also know that he may become a very dangerous person if he loses me. Although Angus tried to hide it, I still know that he hurt so much to the point of madness just knowing I may be betrothed to other people." replied Jayna.
"However, I am completely fine about it and somehow feel a little bit happy about it. Angus… He is the only person that always fights for me. No matter what the situation, he always fights for me and protects me."
"Even though somehow he is quite perverted and quite forceful, I also love that part of him. I have never been loved so much by someone other than him. As I said before, I don't regret doing it with Angus and I will also definitely do it again." said Jayna while covering her body with fire.
At the same time, King Leon only listens to Jayna's conviction with an expressionless face. Just as Jayna wants to attack King Leon, someone grabs Jayna's shoulder.
"It's okay, Jayna." said Angus while his whole body was trembling.
"Angus, you need to lie down." said Jayna.
"It's okay. There is no way I will let you fight alone." said Angus before his body collapsed and was embraced by Jayna.
Seeing this, King Leon finally released a long sigh.
"Fine, you could do what you want. However…" said King Leon before glaring at Angus.
"I will kill you the moment you are not worthy of Jayna or hurt her."? said King Leon sternly.
Hearing this, Angus became quite shocked before replying, "Don't worry, we are already inseparable and I planned to become the strongest to be always on Jayna's side." said Angus.
"Good. Now, why don't you come out now?" said King Leon while looking at the certain direction in the air.
"Hohoho… As expected of King Leon to be able to find me." said a white-haired old man.
Looking at the old man, King Leon immediately appears in front of Angus and Jayna while taking a battle stance.
"Why are you here, Archmage Ikalis?" said King Leon sternly.
"Hohoho… Don't worry, I am just an old man wandering around. It just happened that I found something interesting during my stay here." said Archmage Ikalis.
Archmage is not an ordinary title. It is a title bestowed on anyone who reaches seventh grade through the magician path. Although reaching a seventh-grade level is very hard to the point of it needs a miracle. It is harder for a pure magician to reach the seventh grade than other paths.
The major reason is that a pure magician can hardly break their limit, be it from battle or training. This way limits the option of pure magicians reaching seventh-grade level. However, a pure magician that could reach seventh grade is also very dangerous.
It is said that an archmage can instantly cast fifth circle spells easily. Some of them could even cast sixth circle spells in a few minutes. This kind of power is very absurd. It means an archmage could just destroy a big city at any moment.
Therefore, every seventh-grade pure magician is famous and bestowed with the Archmage title. Although compared to other path seventh-grade combatants, they are weaker in frontal battle, in terms of mass destruction they are superior.
If Archmage Ikalis wanted, he could have obliterated the whole of the capital city in the blink of an eye, leaving only a small number of strong people. This is the horror of someone who gets the title of Archmage.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTherefore, King Leon couldn't help but have a solemn face when he found out it was Archmage Ikalis. Although the archmage may not be able to kill him, he still could decimate the whole capital and will definitely wound the Heart Kingdom.
"What do you want?" asked King Leon coldly.
"Well, as you know, my reputation as the wanderer. Yesterday, I happened to find a very faint wave of mana that almost felt like the natural mana in the surrounding area and decided to trace the source."
"However, before I find the source, the faint mana wave is stopped and gone. Still, I managed to remember the mana signature and characteristics. Just as I was wandering in the town today, I somehow found the same mana signature in this location." said Archmage Ikalis.
"What do you want to do if you find the source?" said King Leon.
"Nothing important, just want to exchange some ideas and thoughts. So, How about it, boy?" asked Archmage Ikalis towards Angus.
Hearing this question, Angus tilted his head, "Aren't you the old man that I met in the Fizzy tavern not long ago?" asked Angus.
"Ohh… You are right. Hohoho… It seems that we are really fated together." said Archmage Ikalis.
Hearing this, Angus suddenly expressionlessly.
"Old man, I don't know who you are or what archmage you are. But, do you want to die?" threatened Angus coldly.
"Huh?" replied Archmage Ikalis confusedly.
Even King Leon and Jayna become confused at a sudden change in Angus's behavior.
"You and I fated together?!! You are joking. If there is one person I am fated with, it should be Jayna. I don't care if you are a senile old man or some kind of archmage but don't you dare say you are fated with me!!" said Angus seriously.
Hearing this, King Leon could only facepalms while Jayna blushed at Angus's declaration and hid her face in Angus's chest.
"Hahahaha…. Interesting.. Interesting… You are the first person that dares to threaten me despite already knowing my title as archmage over something silly like this. No wonder you could push King Leon around." said Archmage Ikalis.
On the other hand, King Leon began to glare after hearing Ikalis's remark.
"Ikalis... Did you want to die?" said King Leon coldly.
