The mont Asher stepped past the thin vertical barrier, the Emovirae that had been staring at him pounced as though they had been starving for ages. But before they could even cross the distance, all they saw was a flowing silver flash that moved like a liquid thread, and with that, blood instantly splattered into the air as ten Rank 5 Emovirae were decapitated in a single slash, as Asher ca to them instead of them coming to him.
Asher’s figure appeared within their midst as he had crossed the distance before they could even so much as blink. Their eyes and senses snapped toward him as their heads turned, but it was already too late, as Asher was already in motion. He dropped into a stance as his knees dipped forward, Virelass positioned near his waist as he imdiately spun and perford a 360-degree slash.
There was no elental augntation. No Astra Energy. No Star Energy. No nothing.
Mobs were mobs. They weren’t worth his true Rapier Technique.
As Asher completed the technique, the air scread and twisted into a ring that expanded for ters before instantly exploding outward with a cataclysmic crescendo of madness and apocalypse. With just that singular attack, over twenty Emovirae were erased before they could even tap into their abilities and Astra Energy.
The wind rings collapsed against the walls of the inner cavern, stones exploding outward in bursts as various sword marks slashed across the earth and pillars around everyone. Dust rose, obstructing everything within view, but it didn’t seem to affect anyone who was alive at the mont.
Asher vanished from where he stood. The mont he did, a tail slamd into the position he had occupied a re split second ago, and the earth tore open from the force of the attack. But Asher was already on the move. His rapier flashed in a silver gleam, and the Emovira that had attacked was bisected in half, its body disintegrating into dust.
Asher’s head snapped to the side as he sensed a beam attack racing toward him with enough power to level almost anything and everything. Asher didn’t hesitate. He swung Virelass upward as he split the beam attack perfectly in half. The mont he did, the beam attack imdiately brightened as both halves exploded outward with ruinous force and destruction.
The entire cavern shook as everything within a two-kiloter radius was erased from the map. Walls were scorched into lava, the earth liquefied, pillars collapsed, and the air beca suffocating as dust, fus, and smoke covered everything in a dense haze.
Asher’s figure shot into the air, his body streaking from a cloud of dust as he moved toward the upper floor of the cavern. Behind him, the Emovirae chased with glee and fervor in their eyes.
The first Emovira arrived, its claws covered in what appeared to be flas as it slashed toward Asher’s neck. But before the attack could even land, both the claw and its neck separated from its body, as Asher had already killed it before it even arrived, and what it had been attacking was nothing more than an afterimage.
The grin on Asher’s face widened as he saw the Emovirae arrive. The mont they appeared on the upper floor of the cavern, Asher imdiately tapped into his Astra Energy as he commanded space itself. The next instant, every Emovirae, whether Rank 5 or Rank 6, felt their bodies being pulled forward by so unknown force.
But before any of them could even try to resist or understand what was happening, Virelass flashed in Asher’s hand as tens of crescent wind slashes collapsed against their bodies. The attacks tore through their bodies with sickening ease. It didn’t matter how strong their scales or hides were; to the rapier, they were no different from butter.
The upper floor of the cavern was imdiately covered in blood as over fifty bodies hit the ground, erased with a single attack.
Asher was about to move again when his foot imdiately halted. His eyes snapped downward as he saw that his shadow had sohow been locked in place, pinning him where he stood. One Emovira imdiately opened its maw and unleashed a breath attack of blue flas capable of lting everything within the cavern.
As the attack was about to land, Asher vanished from where he stood, and in his place stood a Rank 5 Emovira that was imdiately devoured and reduced to ash by the breath attack. Asher appeared beside the Emovira with the breath ability and slashed upward from below.
Flesh parted with ease as the massive head was separated from its body. But before the head could hit the ground, Asher kicked it as though it were a re pebble. It bood forward and slamd into weaker Emovirae, reducing them to at paste as the wall behind them exploded outward from the impact.
As Asher was about to move again, his system chid as an illusion ability was imdiately used on his mind. The Emovira with the illusion ability closed the distance, its dagger streaking toward Asher’s heart.
But before it could even close the distance, Asher appeared before it in a flicker, grabbed it by the head, appeared before a wall, and slamd the Emovira’s head into it with brutal force that shook the entire upper floor. The Emovira’s head imdiately burst open, its corpse vanishing into dust.
The rest of the Emovirae unleashed various attacks, but the mont they got close to Asher, they all froze in space as though sothing was holding them back. Asher turned toward them, and then, with a flick of his left wrist, the attacks reversed course as though ti itself had been reversed. Before the Emovirae could even react, their own attacks collapsed against their own bodies.
Various titanic explosions rang out in succession, earthquakes tearing through everything in their path as the upper floor began to shake and collapse beca imminent. After all, everything within a couple of kiloters had been razed to nothingness under the combined attacks of the Rank 6 Emovirae.
But as the upper floor was about to collapse, Asher tapped into his space affinity once more as Astra Energy pulsed outward in waves, and instantly the entire upper floor stopped quaking as Asher used space itself to forcibly halt the collapse. But his mind wasn’t on the collapsing cavern. No, it was on the Emovirae before him, who stared at him with killing intent.
Their numbers had already been thinned as Asher had erased nearly every single one of them, leaving behind only five Rank 6 Emovirae. Neither side took a step, as though they had arrived at an impasse.
But they hadn’t, at least not to Asher. If they wouldn’t co to him, then he would co to them. With that, he took a step. The mont he did, the Emovirae blurred backward, but it was useless. How could they even hope to be faster than Asher?
Asher’s rapier bood outward in a thrust toward the first Emovira. The Emovira imdiately reacted as it created an Astra Energy barrier to block, since it couldn’t dodge in ti. But it was futile. Virelass tore a gaping hole through the Astra barrier as though it were made of paper, and another gaping hole imdiately appeared in the Emovira’s chest.
Asher didn’t even spare the corpse a glance. His eyes snapped toward the other Emovirae, his senses slowing their speed within his perception. In a flicker, he closed the distance. As he arrived, his foot left the earth in a rocketing high kick. The Emovira imdiately crossed its arms over its chest as a tallic sheen covered its body. Asher’s kick connected with the force of a cannon blast, the impact tearing through whatever ability the Emovira had used, as his foot reduced its arms to mush before proceeding to et its chest with sickening ease.
The force hurled the Emovira backward as it slamd into the earth behind it, its body turning to dust.
Two more Emovirae closed in from the sides while the last one closed in from behind. But the mont they got close, gravity greater than anything they had ever experienced slamd into their bodies. Their knees crashed into the earth with sickening force, their bodies coated in Astra Energy, their strength straining as they desperately tried to rise to their feet.
Asher didn’t even spare them a glance. He simply took a step forward, and with that step, the space around the Emovirae’s heads twisted, and instantly their brains exploded outward from within with a sickening crunch. Their bodies turned into dust as they left the world of Crymora and passed into the unknown.
