Chapter 252: Extremely Powerful Blast
TL :<t0/> Cnine
ED/PF :
Part 1
Knowing that the wind magic of 4th level was coming, Yuuma knew that he wouldn't be able to dodge it.
Although he wouldn't be defeated by this magic, the limit of his transformation time would soon arrive if his movement was restricted. Yuuma struggled, trying to release the flames from his body.
He felt that he might be able to escape from the restraint if he could burn the air. However, the wind was so fierce that it snuffed out the flames on his body.
His legs sank into the ground. Just when he thought it was over, the battle with the 【Red King】 briefly flashed in his mind.
――Oh right. In that case...
Yuuma gathered all his strength and started to twist the flames out of his body once again.
Only a tiny flame lit at first, but this time it didn't get snuffed out by the wind and started to spread across his body. The flames gradually turned black and rose from the dragon's back.
――OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!!
The black flames greedily devoured the air, rising higher and higher.
The soaring black flames then transformed into several "dragons" and flew into a massive cumulonimbus cloud. A low rumble echoed, and lightning streaked through the sky.
The wind stopped a while later, and the cloud was also dispersed.
Yuuma could finally lift his body, but this was not the end. He controlled the "dragons" of black flame that was still present in the sky and sent them forth towards the 【Green King】.
The Green King tried to intercept with vacuum magic and wind blades, but the black dragons devoured everything, weaving through the air as if they had their own life.
The moment the black dragons collided with the Green King, an explosion erupted, and the jet-black flames filled the sky.
Yuuma looked up at the sky. As the flames danced and the thick smoke gradually cleared, the Green King appeared from within.
Its' wings were not as graceful as before.
One of its' long tails were still engulfed in black flame.
The black flame were "Eternal Flame". That flame was burning relentlessly during his battle against the 【Red King】 until the Red King's magical power was exhausted.
Since that was the case, then Yuuma concluded that the black flames should not die out until it consumed the opponent. Once the fire was lit, there’s no way to escape. Victory was within his grasp.
The moment Yuuma felt that way, the 【Green King】 flapped their wings, conjuring a gust of wind. The wind blades that formed from the gust of wind severed the tail engulfed in black flames.
――That fella... Had actually mutilated its' own body!
Despite being their own magic, it was an incredibly powerful wind magic. The severed tail didn’t regenerate; only the detached portion, still burning with black flames, was being scorched on the ground.
――Dammit, what a tough cookie!
The transformation’s time limit was fast approaching. He had to defeat the Green King as soon as possible. He tried to summon the black flames again, but he couldn’t gather his magical power properly.
Just when he was wondering what was happened, he recalled something.
The mana in the region seems to be sucked dry due to the battle between two kings. That was only natural considering the scale of magic unleashed by both kings.
That might be the reason why he couldn't use the magic of 4th level, but the 【Green King】 should be in similar situation.
The troublesome downburst had been sealed. He had to defeat the Green King in the little time he had left. Yuuma flapped his wings strongly and soared back into the air.
The Green King who was wary of Yuuma's attack, created multiple layers of "vacuum barriers" around themselves.
Yuuma realized that normal 【Flame Dragon】 wouldn't be able to do anything against those vacuum barrier. Since his time was running out, Yuuma did a risky bet――
Yuuma glared at the Green King and kneaded magical power in his mouth.
He compressed his magical power in his mouth, pouring all of his remaining magic into this final fireball.
He opened his mouth wide, and the fiery projectile was launched straight at the enemy. The 【Green King】 didn't even try to dodge that fireball.
---So it isn't even feel threatened by this attack. Fine, take this!
A powerful explosion occurred the moment the fireball touched the vacuum barrier, dyeing the sky with crimson red color.
The sky was filled with explosive flames and winds. Emerging from the black smoke, the Green King spread its wings and soared, floating gracefully in the air as if to boast of their victory.
Suddenly, a shadow emerged at breakneck speed from the billowing smoke beneath the 【Green King】. It wasn't the Red King. It was Yuuma who had transformed back into his 『Metal Armour』 form.
The gauntlet sword was extended from his left hand, rushing toward the Green King at breakneck speed.
『OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!』
He used "wind" and "explosion" to propel himself forward. If this attack was failed to land on the Green King, then he had no other way to attack.
"This is the final attack!" Yuuma thrusted his left arm forward, extending the sword from the back of his hand even further. Seeing this, the Green King deploys a "vacuum barrier" in front of their body.
---Your vacuum barrier might be able to block my flame, but what about raw physical attack!!
The sword, stretching straight forward, pierced through the vacuum barrier and impaled the body of the 【Green King】.
The giant moth momentarily halted its wing movement, as if startled.
『EAT THIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS!!!』
The sword pulsated with red veins, glowing a deep crimson as it reached an extreme temperature. Having its' body infuse with magical power of flame from inside, the 【Green King】 trembled violently, and the torso where the sword had pierced swelled up with loud, popping sounds.
A mute scream echoed through the sky, shaking the very atmosphere itself.
At that moment―― The entire region was wrapped bright white light.
Yūuma's vision dyed white, he felt as if sound vanished from the world. It felt as if he had wandered into another dimension altogether.
However, an extreme shock hit him a moment later.
An unbelievably powerful blast of wind erupted, blowing everything, including Yuuma, away.
Even Akito, Rui, and the others who had been evacuated were not exempt from it.
「Oi, ain't that pretty bad――」
Akito's shout cut midway by the gale that suddenly erupted.
All seekers deployed their "Magic Barrier" without exception, but they were unable to withstand the powerful gale. Many of them were screaming to the top of their lungs as they got blasted away.
The ferocious gale swept everything in its' wake.
The gale, which had spread far into the distance, carved the land and changed the terrain. However, it started to lost its' momentum in less than thirty seconds. The sound that had torn through the atmosphere receded, and silence enveloped the region.
「Ouch... That's hurt.」
Akito, who had been lying on the ground, propped his body while clutching his head. When he raised his face, he saw was a desolate land, devoid of anything.
In the sky, the cumulonimbus clouds started to lost its' shape, stretched vertically as if piercing the heavens.
「You must be kidding me... Is this the attack of the 【Green King】? Or else...」
When Akito finally stood on his feet in a daze, he heard faint sound from nearby. When he turned around, he saw few Seekers lying unconscious on the ground.
Some of those seekers trying to prop up their body with pained look on their face.
「Rui!」
Akihito quickly ran over and offered his shoulder to prop Rui up.
「Are you okay!?」
「Uhm... Somehow. Me aside, how about the other people?」
「Ah, you're right.」
Rui and Akito called out to the seekers lying on the ground, gathering the injured in one place. They also helped the Messiah and had them assist by treating the wounded.
Darsha, Kayla, Anik, and the others were also safe and sound. Together, they were working together and carried out rescue operations.
Few seekers were found unconscious, and many were gravely wounded, but none of them were in critical danger. Somehow, everyone survived that disaster.
When Rui and Akito were heaving a sigh of relief knowing that no one died in that disaster, Kayla who was still looking around suddenly said.
「Mitaka... What about Mitaka!? Does this mean he won? Does this mean he has subjugated the gre---」
Starting with Anik, the rescued seekers were also wore grim expressions. No one knew the outcome of the fierce battle between two kings.
Both Akito and Rui looked at the western direction at the same time.
A faint cloud of dust was rising. If Yuuma was around, he was likely in that direction. Akito thought to himself as he looked into the distance.
Kayla, Darsha and the others were also looking at the same direction.
There were no longer any signs of battle. The battle was over... Regardless of the victor.
The wind blew, clearing the dust, and the distance gradually came into view.
「That's...」
Akito's eyes caught something. Beyond the drifting dust in the wind, he saw a wavering human silhouette.
Both Rui and Akito were dumbfounded upon seeing that silhouette.
「「Yuuma!」」
Their voice overlapped and soon broke into run toward the direction of the silhouette.
Yuuma was walking in a battered state, he looked like he might collapse at any moment. His hair was fried at some place, and his clothes were torn in multiple places.
His skin was covered in soot, and as expected, his right arm was still gone.
「Are you okay, Yuuma!?」
Yuuma nodded lightly when Rui was asking for his condition.
「But I'm so exhausted after such fierce battle... Even now I can barely walk by myself.」
Rui and Akito quickly propped Yuuma's shoulders as he staggered.
「Hang in there! What happened to the Green King? Did you defeat that fella!?」
The tips of Yuuma's lips rose a bit upon hearing Akito's question. He raised his clenched left hand, and opened it in front of Akito and Rui.
Just when both of them were wondering what he kept in his left hand,
They saw "Green Magic Gem" radiating unusual glow on Yuuma's palm.
