Chapter 97: D004 – Growing Envy

[Ruins of Archades Imperial Palace: West Corridor - 1F]

That very night, the previously nameless ruins experienced yet another upheaval.

A small, masked cloaked figure dashed through the corridor full of meat and maggots with a lance-shaped flame in hand, slaughtering countless spiders in its path.

PSHAAW! PSHAAW! PSHAAW! PSHAAW! PSHAAW!!

-614200! -614200! -595300 -614200! -614200!

The spiders were not given a chance to scream, nor did they have the chance to feel pain or fear.

Because, the cloaked figure only needed one strike to kill each spider. With every swing, anything that touched the flame lance was instantly disintegrated into ash.

The lance had originally came from the Fire Lance spell, which was contained within the Superior Lunar Wand. Or to be precisely, from the Death Mage's Soul Essence that was inside the Superior Lunar Wand.

With Extremity of Primary Elements (+100%), Overspell (+57%), 10 Ignis rings (+400%), Superior Earring of Wisdom (+20%), and 400+ INT, this spell can undoubtedly cause tremendous damage to enemies.

However, the cloaked figure used the spell not as a projectile, but as a melee weapon, which also caused 125 STR to take effect. In addition, one of the effects of the Orc Hero's Soul Essence inside the Superior Saintess Necklace, which provided an additional 100% increase in melee damage. And then, the 50 LUK also gives a decent critical rate.

It was simply a killing machine.

"This is amazing, she's more overpowered than I expected." (distorted voice)

Not far away, an invisible figure stood in the path full of spider corpses.

Most of them had some missing body parts, as those parts had turned to dust. It could be seen that the cloaked figure had great control over being able to destroy only the enemy's vital parts, leaving the rest intact.

And the cloaked figure was of course, Hecate's newly created mana clone.

Hecate, who drank a bottle of Improved Invisibility Potion, silently controlled the clone with her mind while remaining invisible, safe from the monsters' attention.
