''Land of Death!" She silently mumbled while feeling goosebumps crawling all over her body.
Shortly after, the land 'flattened' by her earlier rose gradually. One by one, twisted and bloodied creatures crawled out of the soil, their eyes glinting in the scarlet and mysterious hue of death. At the next mont, the creatures stood up, turned around, and staggered toward the front.
anwhile, not too far away from Pandora soone cussed as she fought again another mber of Maria's group, it was Saeko.
"Damn it!"
Gazing at the frantic storm of attacks in the distance, the dark elf mage donned in an elegant robe turned grim. She was one of the reinforcents requested by the fifth family. As a matriarch herself, she was once the eldest daughter of Nilerea.
But according to the 'traditions' of the dark elves, after doing her best to live 200 years under Nilerea, she earned the right to leave the family and establish her own. And now, after close to 100 years of operation and devouring countless smaller families, she successfully raised her family to the top 20 in rank.
Of course, she also set eyes on bringing her family into the top 10. As a matter of fact, there was never a mont every daughter who broke away from the matriarch didn't stop thinking about expanding her family and eventually dethroning her mother. There was no such thing as 'kinship' in the values of the dark elves.
If they were able to kill their own mother and take over her position to inherit her power and authority.
She was also aware that a 'subordinate family' like hers had given their all to reach their current level. If she acted too conspicuously and the council matriarchs realized her intention of entering the top-tier family, her family would face imminent catastrophe. Perhaps it wouldn't take long before her family disappeared entirely in a mysterious 'battle'.
Due to that reason, when she received orders from her mother, she was extrely excited. As a non-council mber, she wasn't aware of the true identity of Maria's group. But it was apparent to her that their existence was a dangerous threat to her mother. If not, her mother wouldn't have allowed her and her younger sister to show up at the sa ti. However, huge risks also ant huge rewards.
If she eliminated the threats, she was certain that she would be rewarded generously by the council!
However, she didn't expect these people to be so crazy to start a battle inside a city of dark elves. It seed to her that these people from the surface were dumber than she had imagined. She was certain, confident, and sure about the final destiny of these people.
No one can retreat unscathed after taunting the dignity of us, dark elves. They must pay the price for their foolishness and recklessness. My family shall shoot to fa in this battle and beco the rising star of Gandor City!
At this thought, the matriarch couldn't help but feel agitated. All of a sudden, she unsheathed a dagger with six blades and returned to her senses abruptly. She turned around and pierced the mysterious dagger into the chest of the male dark elf guard standing beside her. The dark elf guard didn't expect this ambush at all.
He widened his eyes in bewildernt, staring at his matriarch in fear and wrath. However, the matriarch didn't say a word. She presented a cruel smile and gripped the hilt of that nacing dagger. Shortly after, along with this action, the specially-modified six blades on that mystifying dagger rotated and dug deeper into his body.
Then, she pulled her arm back and a heart dripping in blood could be seen within the six blades. Shortly after, she raised the dagger and chanted loudly. Along with the incantation, the heart was enfolded in a black mist instantly and began to tremble.
"Halt to my attack!"
The matriarch bellowed and swung the dagger forward with force. Along with this action, three sharp, pitch-black claw marks appeared in midair, slashing toward Saeko in ear-deafening and disturbing whistles. Nothing, not even her guards, in the paths of the three claw marks, were spared as they were shredded by the powerful and mysterious force.
Not only that, but the other dark elf private soldiers were also instantly sared in blood as they collapsed to the ground and howled in tornt. At the sa ti, the three claw marks slamd into Saeko's wind barrier from the front. Looking at the view, the matriarch revealed a prideful smile. She could almost imagine the state of that disintegrated barrier.
This was one of the most sinister spells of the dark elves. It was especially so after sacrificing the lives of other dark elves, where it would be strong enough to destroy anything that stood before it!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The three, pitch-black claw marks collided heavily with Saeko's wind barrier. But what surprised the matriarch was that her imagination didn't co true. The claw marks withstood the violent barrier, but failed to rip it apart. On the contrary, even though the wind barrier seed obviously weakened by her attack, at the next second, strong tempests erupted and thoroughly deflected the claw marks!
"What? How is that possible?"
Looking at this scene, the matriarch couldn't believe her eyes. This was one of the strongest and most terrifying of all evil spells. She was shocked not believing, it should have worked after the sacrifice she made.
Well, that wasn't surprising since there a special invisible shield was hidden inside Saeko's wind shield. It was a shield given to her by her father the King's Shield. Before this legendary shield, the effects of any magical spell would be decreased drastically.
Not to ntion, the 'King's Shield' also had holy attributes, while magical spells of dark elves were products that belonged to the evil camp. Conflicting attributes had inherent weakening effects, so naturally, it weakened the matriarch evil's attack.
