Chapter 235: Kaboom Blast Wave
'Hmm, we don't know how to seal this accursed monster like before. So, extermination is the only way? Let's try gravity first. I just need to try crushing this colossal monster with gravity?' Elysia thought it was a good idea.
'Yes, let's try that together. I'll help, but be careful. We try small to big instead of going straight to the massive.' Elena didn't forget to remind.
'En.' Elysia nodded. She tried to use her magic with extra attention, especially on something with great destructive power. The lesson she learned after her magic hit the forest thousands of kilometers with a violent storm.
After feeling confident about herself, Elysia immediately turned around. The vicious monster that wanted to catch her was right in front of her as she flew backward.
Elena prepared to help if needed, then Elysia raised her hand. She made a gripping motion as if she wanted to crush something that was in her hand.
An enormous surge of magic energy followed that movement at the same time. The colossal monster suddenly stopped in midair, and so did Elysia. They were no longer playing the game of chase. It was unnecessary because Elysia's magic had enough influence to curb the monster.
The extreme gravity within the 20-meter sphere enveloped the monster's body... Large capacity destructive magic in a restricted zone against the monster's immunity and resistance to magic. A clash occurred between the destruction magic that was continuously strengthened and the accursed monster's anti-magic traits.
'Stronger than that, Ely. Use more magic energy and be stronger. Yes, it has an effect. Yay! It's working!' Elena paid close attention to the cause and effect of Elysia's magic.
Elysia didn't answer that. She just used her magic more than before, and the gravitational magic was continuously strengthened.
The air within the extreme gravity sphere began to cloud and darken, signaling the magic's intense crushing force.
*Crack* *Crack* *Crack*
Several cracking sounds from the hard object were audible. The monster's body bent as it began to crush without being able to fight back. At that moment, Saint Ruvoid's Health Point was rapidly diminishing due to the damage Elysia's powerful magic had inflicted.
Saint Ruvoid looked at the human who used magic to injure its body. The magic of the other race shouldn't have any effect, but it became a thing that would kill its own existence shortly after its freedom.
The monster's glowing green eyes widened as it saw the energy aura emitted from this human girl. The color was no longer white, but gold... Dark gold. So, the creature in front of its eyes right now was a Goddess? Not an ordinary weak girl from the Human Race... No wonder this human was compelling and smelled delicious.
"Human, Goddess! You shall receive... Your eternal damnation! And, my wrath! Graa!!!" The monster roared as loud as it could as if it didn't accept this kind of injustice. It was only being played by the high-class Goddess who could crush the Saint-class Ruvoid like itself with magic.
Elysia and Elena only ignored the thunderous roar by blocking their sense of hearing. Elysia covered her ears with magic to protect her eardrums. Then she increased the intensity of her magic to give this monster a quick death.
*Splat*
The monster's colossal body was fiercely compressed into a ball, and it exploded like a black ink balloon. Still, it was pressured again until it became like a ball by the extreme gravity magic.
'Ely, don't strengthen your magic any more than that! Abort, abort, the monster's HP is already 0. If you continue, then you will create a black hole! It's dead. Yes, you did it.' Elena reminded her sweet little sister as soon as possible before this dark sphere turned into a suction hole that could engulf everything.
The magic caster didn't need to wait for Elena to finish saying that. She revoked her magic when she confirmed the monster was really dead.
The spherical force of extreme gravity disappeared gradually. The large gray ball immediately fell to the ground like a black meatball covered in soy sauce.
'Ugh...' Elysia looked to the side, unable to look at the ball of meat. Several thoughts flashed through the moment after that.
Killing Saint-class accursed monsters could be this easy. So why did she go to such great lengths to slaughter them before? She couldn't remember how many times she had been injured in this brief period... Since she entered this dome barrier.
Yes, whatever the problem, magic was the solution. If it didn't work, then use another kind of magic or make it stronger.
The Reinforcement Magic came with a significant risk after the magic's effects wore off, but not when the user came into contact with accursed monsters. The impact suffered by the user was immediate, especially if it crossed the body's limits... The after-effect was severe.
Elysia would be much more careful when using Reinforcement Magic. She made the conclusion and the decision from what she learned about today's events.
'Ely, let's get away from here. The exploding Spirit Ruvoid didn't teach you any valuable lessons?' Elena wryly smiled when she knew what her sweet little sister was thinking.
'Uhh, I don't want to feel crushing pain like that anymore. I thought we were dead, but luckily we are still alive. Thank you, Sister Elena, it's because of you.' Elysia pouted a little as the previous incident flashed back in her mind. Despite that, she flew away from there, towards Vanessa.
'En. Uhm, Ely, I'm worried about what Saint Ruvoid said before it died.' Elena twiddled her fingers somewhat nervously.
'We just pray for the best and face all the things that come our way. Maybe what Saint Ruvoid said earlier, about the curse energy we purify to level up?' Elysia guessed positively to calm the restless heart.
'Ah, yes, I hope so.' Elena nodded, pushed aside what was bothering her, and returned to the matter they needed to deal with.
'Aahh... Vann's HP only has 30 percent left. Sigh, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have taken you to this test. Ah, forget it, allow me to heal you first.' Elysia landed and stroked her contracted beast gently. Then, she used her magic to heal all the wounds of the white tiger.
After Vanessa was good as if she had never been injured, Elysia checked Vanessa's Life Energy. She planned to take care of that as well in the future, as compensation.
[| Lv. 155 | LE: 398,000 (99.5%) |]
Well, that number was reduced by half of one percent. Not much, but still not one hundred percent.
'Nee, Ely.'
Elena suddenly called out in a confused tone, and Elysia became curious. 'Yes? What's the matter, Sister Elena?'
'More than eighty percent of this cursed tropical forest area was destroyed because of you. You slaughtered thousands of accursed monsters too. If this is the case, how do you explain everything to others? This wasn't in our plan, right?' Elena scratched her head. Things turned quite far from the plan they had prepared.
'Huff... I'm a little confused too, Sister Elena. Initially, we will learn a little more about the cursed creatures described in Nell's notes and harvest some accursed monster's curse to level up. After that, we ran away and became one of the eyewitnesses. The experts will take care of everything. However, that plan has gone awry ever since the horde surfaced and Spirit Ruvoid attacked.' Elysia let out a soft sigh and turned around to look at the ravaged area.
'Ely, can you see more than 200 meters underground? Try using your sacred vision.' Elena wanted to confirm something before making suggestions.
'I tried it a while ago. It's useless. Something is messing up my sight, just the ground and many strange poles that I see now... Just like before.' Elysia used her sacred vision to examine things further below.
She saw nothing of any significance other than the multitude of items that resembled poles or pegs. Their sizes varied from one to three meters, and all of those silver items were the ones that supported this barrier.
'I see...' Elena patted her chin, trying to find another solution with Elysia. The awaited one minute passed, and the expected curse suddenly came over from afar. 'Ely, we'll think about that later. Curse energy is coming. We purify it fast.'
Elysia was also aware of the approaching black energy. She stepped forward to take some distance from the sleeping Vanessa.
*Whizz*
A bolt of curse Energy directly attacked Elysia, as expected. Nevertheless, Elysia and Elena didn't need to know what kind of curse the black energy wanted to inflict on them. They worked together to quickly purify that energy.
Concurrently, the gray ball in the middle area swelled and expanded to three times bigger. The purplish-black miasma looked sinister all around it.
It exploded like a matter of worry, but it was much larger than Spirit Ruvoid's corpse explosion.
*Kaboom!* *Swoosh!*
The loud explosion occurred and was followed by a powerful blast wave that destroyed everything in its path like a nuclear bomb.
'Ely, protect yourself and Vanessa!' Elena exclaimed while putting up multiple magic barriers.
The explosion did not reach them, but the devastating blast wave spread throughout the forest area within this dome barrier.
