Chapter 1194: Charge

Chapter 1194: Charge

Even though it was Rhode who gave the initial command, the first one to arrive at the battlefield exceeded everyone’s expectation. His younger sister who stood quietly at the back of the group clutched the battle ax, raised it high up, and slashed forward. The long, heavy battle ax seemed awkward in the young lady’s hands and people were worried about whether her slim, fragile body would be swept away by her own swinging of the blade. As a matter of fact, it was just like they were concerned about. The moment the young lady brandished the battle ax, she turned into a dazzling flash of thunder along with the huge weapon, bursting toward the heavily guarded entrance.

What in the—?!

Looking at this scene, Rhode was startled. For safety’s sake, he decided to lead the way and let his younger sister fight in a relatively safer environment. But he didn’t expect her to be more exaggerated than Anne, which proved that there was something wrong with his thinking pattern. After all, his younger sister was always docile toward him and discussed matters with him before she got to work. That was why he didn’t expect this to happen at all. He was about to turn around to inform the younger sister about the start of the battle, but it seemed like she anticipated this from him and was long ready to dash ahead!

Sigh… Like brother, like sister… No! Now isn’t the time for that!

“… Charge!”

Gazing at the dazzling flashes, Rhode let out a helpless sigh and threw his original battle strategy to the back of his head.

Damn. I can’t even carry out my strategy now!

At this thought, Rhode hesitated no more. He gripped his sword and dashed ahead in a trail of afterimages. Right behind him, a trio of blue, green, and red figures followed him closely.

At that moment, Rhode finally witnessed just how powerful his younger sister was.

Canary’s flame spear didn’t cause any damage to the undead creatures. On the contrary, her ambush forced them to gather at a spot immediately. The gargoyles that acted as sculptures above the stone columns expanded their wings, widened their eyes, and spiraled into the sky, howling like hungry ghosts in hell. The tall, big skeleton soldiers gripped their swords and knives and gazed ahead. But before they figured out where their enemies were, a blinding electric arc flashed past their vision.

Then, the battle ax flickering in thunder crushed the undead creatures like a battering ram.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

In an instant, countless dazzling thunders erupted with the battle ax in the middle. Shining, electrical serpents whizzed and zapped in all directions. The tall, powerful, skeleton soldiers, strong enough to resist a bombardment of fireballs, were crushed in a split second. The moment they attempted to resist the thunder strikes, the thunderbolts that erupted struck them heavily. The mighty electric current demolished their spiritual powers without the slightest pity, sending their strong skeleton crumbling and scattering into bits. The moment the thunderous rays flashed, heaven and earth became dark in contrast.

“Gaaaa——!”

However, this earth-shattering attack wasn’t able to stop all the undead creatures. Upon detecting the position of their enemy, the gargoyles soaring in the air let out a piercing screech, extended their claws, and pounced on the enemy directly. Their maroon eyes glinted as they stared at their prey. The razor-sharp claws that could shred steel plates were about to puncture the slim young lady and rip out her intestines effortlessly.

But at that moment, the young lady also made her move.

The instant she landed on the ground, she twitched her brow slightly. She flipped backward, gaining support from the long hilt of the battle ax. Then, she gripped the other end of the hilt and held it down. As the hilt raised from her shoulder, the battle ax buried underneath the surface burst out and slashed skyward.

Shing———!

The glistening blade ray slammed into one of the gargoyles, slicing it into half like butter. The young lady clutched the battle ax with both hands, using the momentum of her fall to stoop over and swing it forward. In an instant, the battle ax erupted in a dazzling light, shrouding all the gargoyles pouncing from above. The gargoyles had struck from all directions to seal off the retreat of this enemy before them. If the young lady were wielding a sword, perhaps she would have been caught in a tough situation. But it was a pity that it was the battle ax she was wielding that was most effective for large-scale battles. Facing the gargoyles that swooped down on her, the young lady’s expression remained unchanged. She flourished the heavy battle ax in her hand as though it were weightless, slashing it skyward in lightning speed. At the next moment, bright thunderbolts boomed once again.

Rumble…!

Heaven and earth turned dark and at that moment, the young lady came to a halt. In that earlier thunderous strike, almost 100 gargoyles were smashed to bits.

Even though it sounded like a long process, as a matter of fact the whole battle took only around half a minute. The moment the carcasses hit the ground, Rhode and the rest had arrived at the battlefield.

“Woah! Leader, your younger sister is so cool!”

Looking at this scene, Anne couldn’t help but exclaim in amazement. Their battle styles were similar with each other, where they crushed enemies with absolute, spontaneous force. Due to that reason, after witnessing his younger sister’s battle, the excited Anne was ready to jump into battle. On the other hand, Rhode stared at his younger sister, speechless. Upon detecting his gaze, his younger sister couldn’t help but let out a chuckle and stick out her tongue playfully.

“Alright, cut the nonsense! Continue to attack; the enemies are here!”

Upon noticing her witty expression, Rhode was caught between laughter and anger. But this time, he didn’t stop to speak to his younger sister, but dashed and leapt into the sky in a trail of afterimages instead. In the sound of cracks, the black sword in his hand divided itself and turned illusory. With a ‘swish’, Rhode penetrated the body of a chanting necromancer at the back with his black sword. Black flames erupted from the blade, devouring the necromancer’s magical powers and turning it into ashes in the blink of an eye. Meanwhile, three shadow clones split out of Rhode, wiping out the other undead creatures with their swords. The criss-crossed thunder formed a net of light, ambushing and enfolding the undead creatures that arrived from the rear and catching them off guard. Rhode drifted in and out the group of undead creatures like an elegant specter with every swing of his blade leaving one undead creature in half.

“Oooooh!”

In a series of loud bellows, a dozen death knights flew out from the back, mounting the incubi. They raised their swords and metamorphosed into turbulent torrents that gushed into the dazzling net of blades in front of them. In this assault, the large, expanded net of blades shrunk abruptly, merging as one with Rhode in the blink of an eye. Rhode narrowed his eyes, staring at the enemies ahead. Then, he lifted his right arm and slashed the sword downward.

At the next moment, he appeared beside the foremost death knight and slashed the enemy into half from the middle. Then, Rhode swung his wrist—the sword in his hand cracked and turned illusory again, before metamorphosing into a dazzling arc that swept across the battlefield. Upon witnessing this attack, the death knights following closely at the back lifted their swords in defense immediately. But they didn’t expect the instant this attack arrived, Rhode swung out his left arm and a pitch-black card appeared in between his fingers.

Innumerable tough tentacles burst out of the shadows, binding the death knights entirely and not even the powerful strength of the incubi could break free from the restraint. The instant the death knights came to a halt, Rhode turned his wrist around and along with this action, the illusory blade restored its original, physical state.

Then, ice-cold, shimmering light flitted across like a specter in the dark. At the same time, the death knights struggling to break free from the tentacles stopped moving like robots that ran out of battery.

One of the death knights maintained its sword-lifting stance but just couldn’t flourish the sword no matter what. Because right in the middle of its chest, the area protected by the heavy armor had shattered completely. Shortly after, pitch-black flames erupted from within, devouring the death knight in the blink of an eye.

“Say, Big Sister, don’t you think Leader and his younger sister should swap their battle styles?” Looking at this scene, Mini Bubble Gum couldn’t help but ask Canary in a lowered voice. “I think Leader’s battle style is more beautiful than his younger sister’s. But will everything be fine this way?”

“That is Rhode’s concern. You don’t need to worry about it.”

Upon hearing Mini Bubble Gum’s words, Canary responded and extended her right arm. Shortly after, a sword coalesced from flames appeared in her hand along with her summon.

“But what I do know is that if we don’t perform well, Rhode will surely not bring us along for future battles.”

“Right! Why did I forget about that!”

After hearing Canary’s answer, Mini Bubble Gum grimaced instantly. The latter thumped her left hand downward and circles of light flashed across her body.

“Let’s do it, Big Sister—show them our worth!”
