Chapter 79

Chapter 79 – Chapter 12: Legend #5

Spending 20 years in solitary without sunlight . . .

In-gong couldn’t imagine it .

He couldn’t guess what emotions or thoughts he would have felt during that time .

Miasma .

It wasn’t just the power of Famine that turned the aura pitch black . Gerard’s deep-seated grudge and resentment dyed his aura into a dark shade .

Chris had a hunch when Gerard blew away several lycanthrope soldiers in his first attack .

Ordinary soldiers wouldn’t be able to deal with him . Considering the strange power he used, there was a possibility that rather than exhausted, he would be strengthened .

It would just be a futile sacrifice . Even though it was risky, Chris had to do it himself .

Chris struck Gerard from the front . Caitlin used to time to make up for Chris by piercing through the gap .

A pincer move that couldn’t be done with just anyone . They needed to be aware of each other’s breaths as well as what attacks were on the way . In a pincer move, those who couldn’t engage with each other weren’t able to create gaps .

Chris and Caitlin’s pincer move was perfect as the two of them knew each other very well . It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that they were two different bodies moving as one .

Gerard wasn’t pushed at all by the stormy joint attack . He proved why he had been called the strongest lycanthrope 20 years ago by blocking all the attacks from Chris and Caitlin . It was so exquisite that it was like the three people were dancing .

The lycanthrope soldiers didn’t dare get in the way of the three people . Felicia had gathered magic power in her hands, but she couldn’t do anything .

In-gong breathed calmly as he observed the scene . Despite drawing with Caitlin in the spar, he wouldn’t be able to interfere . If n-gong moved, it was more likely that he would ruin their flow .

‘The power of Famine . ’

Gerard drained the life force of the lycanthrope soldiers . After the life force was robbed, the black energy was visibly strengthened .

‘Direct contact is needed . ’

It wasn’t enough to touch the body; time was needed . Compared to In-gong’s ‘Conquest’, his command was ‘Drain’ . Maybe, it was even a single process .

Famine Knight .

Now that he had time to think about it, Gerard had inherited the power of Famine from the man in black robes who had been on the slab .

However, weren’t the four people in the picture on one side? Were they hostile to each other? Otherwise, was Conquest rejected by the other three?

“Below the King’s Flag!”

In-gong stopped his thoughts and used the power of Conquest . The moment the dwarf dagger hit the ground, a white aura covered Chris and Caitlin .

There was a change in the movements of Chris, Caitlin and Gerard who had been like precision machines .

Chris and Caitlin were disconcerted by the support but soon adapted to their stronger bodies . They started pushing Gerard faster than ever .

Gerard was at a loss for a moment as he gazed at the two people . He glared at In-gong as his black aura rose vividly .

‘Conquest Knight . ’

Gerard didn’t say anything, but In-gong heard Gerard’s voice clearly . The whirlwind of Chris and Caitlin’s pincer attack erased his voice, but In-gong couldn’t forget it .

The three people became more violent .

Gerard, who was stuck between the two people, suddenly laughed and released a power of Famine that was greater than before .

It was only for a moment, but the shape was clear . The black aura reached Caitlin’s dark blue aura and Chris’ blue aura, placing a brake on the movements of the two people .

Chris shattered Famine by strengthening his aura, but Caitlin couldn’t . Her movements were stopped and Gerard didn’t miss this gap .

The change was rapid and instant . Gerard stood firmly as he took one of Chris’ blows and headed toward Caitlin . Gerard’s left arm shot toward her like a snake . Chris’ eyes widened . Caitlin felt Gerard’s palm touching her abdomen and the balance collapsed .

“Caitlin!”

Felicia screamed desperately . Caitlin’s slender body flew into the air and Chris’ fist aimed for Gerard again .

Gerard didn’t face this fist . He pushed strength into his legs and jumped up after Caitlin . His palm struck Caitlin’s abdomen again like a lightning strike!

Kwang!

Caitlin was pushed vertically towards the ground . There was a deafening roar as red blood burst out .

Gerard landed on the ground, then slammed his knee down on Caitlin . Caitlin coughed up blood again and Chris roared like a beast .

Gerard glanced at Chris and used one hand to throw Caitlin at Chris .

Chris was relentless . He swallowed his tears and flew forward . Instead of taking Caitlin, he moved toward Gerard . Caitlin rolled on the ground as he exchanged blows with Gerard .

A loud shock shook the atmosphere . The blue aura and black aura exploded together and parts of the ground, which couldn’t survive the violence, collapsed .

Felicia ran forward despite the risk . She grabbed Caitlin and dragged her away . Carack and Seira followed quickly while White Eagle flew behind Felicia to protect her .

The light went out . Chris was coughing up blood and it was the same for Gerard as well . It was the result of them striking each other’s chest with a devastating strike .

Chris shouted as he swung a fist . It had a strong momentum, but Gerard didn’t avoid it . Unlike Chris, he still had one trick remaining .

Beast Form:

The true power of the lycanthropes .

Gerard’s upper body swelled up and a wolf-like roar burst from his mouth .

Chris and Gerard’s blows struck each other and the exchange turned into a slugfest .

The ground shook again . The momentum of their fists tore through the atmosphere and the broken pieces of aura destroyed everything they touched . The surrounding terrain started to change due to them .

It had only been one minute at most, but at the end of that time, which felt like hundreds of minutes, Chris couldn’t stand up properly . His blue aura was on the verge of being snuffed, like a candle about to go out, and he fell down as both his knees were broken .

Gerard’s hand grabbed Chris . He was also a mess, but he had more room to move than Chris .

He looked at Chris . There was a warm smile on his face that was unthinkable in this situation . Then Gerard triggered the power of Famine!

Gigantic – Piston!

As everybody stopped, In-gong’s white aura exploded .

Since the beginning of the battle, In-gong had only been focused on Gerard . Once Chris’ aura went down, Gerard revealed a gap . The moment he was drunk with the joy of victory, In-gong moved .

The giant fist moved through the surrounding area and In-gong sensed It would hit . In-gong aimed for Gerard’s chest but Gerard caught the blow in his left shoulder and he flew through the air .

Gerard stared at In-gong . In-gong was also staring at Gerard, but this wasn’t the end . Gigantic Piston had struck Gerard’s body . It was a unique opportunity given to In-gong .

Earth Quaker roared as he had invoked Dragon Blood before using Gigantic Piston . Shortly after their eyes crossed, In-gong poured out a series of attacks toward Gerard .

Gerard was clearly strong . In relation to martial arts, he was in a place far above In-gong .

However, he was tired . The battle with Chris had damaged him and Gigantic Piston then went on to smash the rest of him .

So, In-gong now had to see it through to the end . If he collapsed, the others wouldn’t be able to survive .

Gerard couldn’t use his left arm, so In-gong aimed for that point . Once the white and black auras clashed, a terrible shockwave covered the whole area .

The powers of Conquest and Famine also collided . The strength of Conquest was depleted by Famine’s power .

Delia and the lycanthropes were protecting Chris and Caitlin . Felicia was curing Caitlin with recovery magic while the lycanthrope soldiers once again formed a circle .

For Gerard, In-gong was a roadblock . If it wasn’t for In-gong, this situation would have been over the moment Chris had fallen . Even if there were dozens of hundreds of ordinary lycanthrope soldiers, Gerard couldn’t be captured .

Conquest . Conquest Knight .

Anger rose, but it wasn’t just Gerard’s personal anger . Famine was furious and he expressed a strong hatred for Conquest .

Kwang!

Once again, his aura exploded, but this was different from before . Gerard’s right hand turned quickly, creating a repulsive force that pushed at In-gong like a snake . The moment In-gong realized it, Gerard’s palm was already touching his chest .

It was the blow that broke Caitlin .

Divine Beast Authority Secret Principle: Arang .

It was a wolf-like aura that struck the enemy’s body directly, collapsing it from the inside .

This attack was a success . Like Caitlin, In-gong opened his mouth and spat out blood .

However, In-gong wasn’t thrown into the air . He stepped back and White Eagle supported In-gong’s back . Rather than flying away, In-gong gritted his teeth and raised his head .

Gerard stared at In-gong . At that moment, Daphne hurriedly shouted something at In-gong,

“Spirit Enlightenment!”

It was urgent . It didn’t reach him completely, but there was no time to wait for the spirit’s power to be completely activated . However, Daphne’s magic gave In-gong the strength to take one step .

In-gong took a step forward . After struggling with his legs . he reached out .

He had just learnt it, so it was only level one .

However, it was enough .

Divine Beast Authority Secret Principle: Arang .

The white aura ate at Gerard’s body . The moment Arang struck him, Gerard’s eyes widened with amazement and In-gong took a step back . He once again aimed for Gerard’s chest!

Explosive Power . . .

It wasn’t Divine Beast Authority but Divine Sura Authority!

The white aura slammed into Gerard’s chest .
