Bzzt. Swoosh. Chop.
Igni Wave
Eren appeared amidst four Spiders like a lightning ghost. He had entered the Green Prison Lagertha had created for herself using the same void his Igni Chains and Igni Shards had created to snatch the forbidden potions.
In the next moment, Vihah had her legs cut from the same joints. Lagartha’s green vine stitches couldn’t provide any resistance to Eren’s ax swings.
Shifa had her heart cleaved by Eren’s second ax. Eren kicked over the ax’s blade to make it dig deeper into his opponent’s chest before executing another Igni Wave.
The ax blade had pierced Shifa’s heart when Eren let loose another Igni Wave. The Snake-type Wesen’s heart burst inside. Since Eren had kicked the blade with a full swing of his kick, the vector force acting on Shifa’s body dragged it away from her previous position. This was while the Igni Wave was beginning to cause its damage.
Shifa’s body imploded from within in the next moment when her body couldn’t contain the Igni Wave inside it. As the flesh and bones were scattered all around, the ax fell to the ground.
Lagartha and Tohir moved away from their places when they found Eren was right in the middle of their group. They knew that they all were going to die if things kept moving the way they were. But they were betting on the off chance that Eren runs out of his mana after executing his spells.
Lagartha tried to restrict Eren’s movements some more with her green vines that were all around the ground. But it was of no use.
Eren’s fire-element spells were omnipotent inside the fire domain. They would sprout and get executed from anywhere, from any angle. They would annihilate everything they touched, leaving nothing but dust behind.
“Aaaaaaah! You will pay for…
Uhhhhhh! Uhhhhh!”
Eren stepped over Vihah’s face as she was screaming and cursing him at the same time for chopping her legs once again. He found it ironic that the Spiders were calling him devil, fiend, and whatnot when it was them who had tried to kill him in the first place.
‘Am I getting criticized for the way I kill and not why I kill?’
Eren thought to himself as he saw Lagartha and Tohir look at him like he was some sort of abomination. He then looked at his foot that was stepping over Vinah’s face and preventing her from screaming and cursing.
“Let me relieve you of your misery. There’s benevolence in granting death to your mortal enemies.”
Eren said to Vinah before casting Blitz Steps over her face. His legs immediately became covered in lightning streaks again.
Eren increased the pressure on Vinah’s face by standing over it with his single leg. He then cast his movement spell to its fullest.
Vinah’s brain stopped working when it was subjected to so much lightning mana so close to it. The stun effect of the lightning seeped into her nervous system and stopped her struggle.
The foreign mana invasion of lightning mana destroyed Vinah’s muscles on a cellular level. She was kicked out of her Woge form, turning into a normal-looking human girl. But before one could see what she looked like without any beastly features, her face was splattered by Eren’s feet.
Eren had used his movement spell to attack Vinah. The snake-type beastkin died not long after her sister did. Eren had killed two more Spiders in mere 10 seconds after the appearance of the Core Turmoil potion.
Eren wanted to take his time dealing with the remaining enemies. He had a few more spells to try on them. They could have served as pretty effective live dummies for him. Unfortunately or fortunately, Lagartha tried to outplay him using the forbidden potion. That rubbed Eren the wrong way, prompting him to get rid of the threat right away.
Eren disappeared from his position while his movement spell was still active. Both of his axes were a bit distant from him. But he didn’t bother to retrieve them. He didn’t need them after all.
Tohir was still trying to stick to Lagartha as he watched Eren brutally kill another two party members. The fear that was taking over his mind and heart was so overwhelming that he couldn’t think straight.
He couldn’t cast his spells or use any of his stored artifacts. He ran towards Lagartha like a mortal, his hands stretched towards her. He was calling her name while he did that. It was as if he had regressed into being a baby and he was seeing his mother in Lagertha.
The female ranker had lost all hope in Tohir. She also didn’t try to save her party members anymore. She let them all get killed by her opponent so that she would be the last person standing with him.
That way, she could concentrate on dealing with Eren with everything she had. She was sure that she would not survive fighting with Eren. However, the fighter in her wanted to do maximum damage to him before she was forced to call it quits.
“Lagertha… help… help me!”
Tohir was only 12 meters away from Lagartha when Eren appeared behind him. He kicked the guy’s leg joint from behind, making him lose his balance. The ranger was brought to his knees.
Eren could see Lagartha in front of her. While staring her in the eye, he stood right behind the kneeling ranger before placing his right head over his head.
Solid Spark!
Tohir’s mana defense had been compromised because of his emotional state. It couldn’t offer any resistance to the Solid Spark spell that split his head and a significant portion of his torso vertically.
Solid Spark was compressed lightning-mana manifested into a bolt-like solid form. Usually, the spell was meant to be used for long-range attacks. However, Eren had again tried to experiment with the spell on live subjects, squeezing the last bit of use from them.
Lightning worked so well on the ranger that no blood spilled out. As if it faced minimum resistance while doing its job. Most of the blood had been evaporated by the intense heat generated by lightning. The split edges of Tohir’s vertically split body turned coal-like. Only a few drops of black blood started dripping on the green vines that served as the ground.
Eren had killed Tohir while staring at Lagertha. For the first time in a while, the lady felt fear. Only after his death could she start to understand why he was gripped by fear so much when facing Eren.
Eren observed Lagartha’s face and could guess what she was thinking about as she watched her last party member’s body hit the ground lifeless. He narrowed his eyes on her before speaking up.
