Chapter 273: Slaying

Translator: Kris_Liu Editor: Vermillion

The dim moonlight behind the curtain did not light up Lucien’s room, but made the whole place very quiet and somehow even darker.

The darkness in the room was not evenly distributed, as if the darkness had life. But when one took a closer look at it, there was nothing in the darkness.

Lucien was lying in the bed, and his breath was long and smooth. It seemed that he had fallen into a sweet dream in his deep sleep.

“The darkness shows… He’s indeed in the bed…

“His swords… two swords… about ten centimeters from his hands. He’s very alert…

“Breath… heartbeat… spiritual power… all normal. Hands are covered by the blanket… hard to tell… His posture is awful… not like a noble at all…

“He’s in deep sleep. Maybe the many guards in the castle made him feel safe…

“He’s still wearing the amulet. The amulet can be activated very fast, but it only works facing lethal magic spells and curses. It cannot protect him from any physical or elemental attacks, nor can it hurt the attacker.

“Maybe he still has more magic items, but I should be able to get him before they actually work…

“I’m ninety-nine percent sure… I can send him to hell before he wakes up!”

After close observation, Petrov had made up his mind.

In the darkness beside Lucien’s bed, a figure suddenly showed up! The figure fiercely took a step forward and the dagger shining in green light directly stabbed toward Lucien’s throat!

Just now Petrov dared not to get too close in case Lucien could sense the danger with his intuition. Although Lucien had a magic sword and a quite useful divine item, Petrov was not afraid of them. In the darkness, he was totally confident with his Blessing. However, his only concern was that, if the divine item was too powerful, the magic circle set up by Matvienko for blocking the noise might collapse, and then the grand knights in the castle would notice what was going on here.

Petrov was fast, and his blade was even faster. However, as soon as his dagger cut Lucien’s throat, he sensed a surge of familiar magic waves. He could not believe the first idea flashing through his mind, but it was true—it was magic!

Feeling shocked, Petrov saw Lucien’s figure breaking down into pieces like a broken mirror.

The second circle spell, Mirror!

Although Darkness Blessing was immune to those lower level spells, this was only for defence. When the power was used to attack, it would still be affected by magic.

In the moonlight, the mirror broke into shining pieces, just like a beautiful dream.

“A Sorcerer?!” Petrov’s heart suddenly sank, but soon he realized that the information was not accurate. In the next second, he was ready to go back into the darkness to retrieve!

However, it was already too late. He saw Lucien’s real figure beside the bed, and holy light lit up in front of his chest.

Immediately, the whole room was filled with the bright, burning light.

The darkness that Petrov heavily relied on was instantly dispelled, and his figure was revealed.

The level three divine spell, Burning Radiance!

Petrov fought to bear the great pain but released no scream. In great effort, he tried his best to move away from the light, but the pain made him move way too slow.

Without hesitation, Petrov activated the magic ring on his left little finger.

However, as soon as the black smoke started to rise out of the ring, Lucien directly cast Elemental Order!

Bang!

The ring first cracked, then the power in the ring lost its balance. When the ring exploded, the power completely covered Petrov and blasted his light-brown blood everywhere.

With Lucien’s outstanding spiritual power as a third circle sorcerer, when he cast Elemental Order, if his enemy did not have anything for defence, Lucien’s power was enough to destroy most level four alchemical items.

Seeing that the ring just exploded, Lucien was a bit upset. His possible trophy was gone now. No wonder all the powerful sorcerers were very careful with using the ninth-circle spell, Cracking, since most enemy’s magic and divine items under legendary level would be destroyed by the power, leaving one with no gain at all from the fighting.

Also, Cracking was a spell with an area of effect. If one still had his or her teammates around, it would be a great concern to the caster. Therefore, comparatively speaking, Lucien’s Elemental Order was much more convenient to use.

Petrov was still writhing on the floor, trying to reach the shadow in the corner. Lucien, of course, would not leave him with any chances, so he activated Sun’s Corona again. The flame summoned directly hit Petrov.

One second before, Petrov had no other choice and activated his ultimate and forbidden power, Darkness Assimilation, however, the flame put an end to all his hope.

In the flames, Petrov’s figure was quickly overwhelmed. His mouth and throat were burnt into ashes instantly, thus his howling of great pain and fear was restrained in his chest. He could not believe that he had failed this fast, after all, his power was not fully revealed at all! Still, very quickly, nothing was left of him.

Petrov’s dagger dropped on the floor.

When Flame Strike was cast, the divine power in the room peaked, but the power was still a bit away from destroying the invisible magic cover. As Lucien expected, the grand knights in the castle sensed no difference.

Because they estimated that the divine item Lucien had was about level four or five, in order to be careful, Matvienko also built a level five magic cover.

Seeing what just happened in Lucien’s room, Matvienko was so shocked that he was distracted for a second, thus his figure showed up in the air outside of the window from Lucien’s room, right beside that of Ivanovszki!

Lucien’s buffering time for casting had passed, and thus he immediately looked at Matvienko in the air and locked him with spiritual power. Lucien’s eyes were shining with dim light. He was ready for another round of fighting!

As soon as they started spying on him, Lucien instantly found out what they were planning.

Magic waves spread. Matvienko, who had cast Mechanized Mind and Magic Armor on himself, saw that his invisible covers were silently broken down.

For a second, Matvienko suddenly felt that Lucien was a quite nice guy. However, he quickly realized that Lucien had cast Charm Person on him, but now he felt a little dizzy.

Matvienko had no idea why the spell, Charm Person, could be this powerful. Although his spells had countered most of Lucien’s spell power, for a short period of time, he still could not stay concentrated with his spiritual power.

Fortunately, Matvienko could still use his magic item. After seeing what happened just now, without any hesitation, Matvienko activated his magic boots and disappeared in the air.

The third circle spell, Short Distance Teleportation!

Matvienko had just witnessed how Lucien fought—his fast, continuous attacks never left his enemy any chances to fight back, so Matvienko instantly decided to run away.

Lucien was still in his buffering time for casting Elemental Order, thus he could not destroy Matvienko’s boots. However, Lucien had many powerful magic items. Now, he calmly activated his ring, Element.

Outside of the window, a cluster of greenish yellow smog was released, and the smog in the air surrounded the building.

In the smog, several tall and thick pines quickly perished, and even the bugs hiding in the trees were not exception, as if nothing could survive in the smog.

The fifth-circle spell, Gaston’s Poison Cloud!

Without any preparations for this, one could die from the smog even with a small amount of it inhaled!

Matvienko’s teleportation could not make him move far enough to avoid the toxic smog. When he showed up in the air again, he was surrounded by the greenish-yellow gas.

As a sorcerer, Matvienko was alert enough to know what to do right now. He instantly held his breath and cast Air Filter Bubble.

Matvienko decided to protect him first, and then cast Dissipate Smoke, because dispelling all the smog could take some time.

However, he was greatly shocked when he saw that the filtering bubble was being dyed by the greenish-yellow smoke bit by bit.

“Damn it!” Matvienko had no idea how many middle rank magic items Lucien had. Since he knew that Air Filter Bubble could only manage to handle toxicants produced by spells under the fourth circle, he understood how dangerous the smoke was immediately.

At this time, Matvienko noticed that his skin started to fester!

He could not believe the fact that the toxic smoke could affect his body directly!

“A unique spell…?!” Matvienko’s brain started to get slow. With great effort, he managed to retain his consciousness, and activate the spell enchanted in his magic robe, Gasification.

He wished to turn himself into gas for a while to temporarily get rid of the toxic smoke, at the cost of not being able to cast any spells during that time, only being able to fly.

Lucien would not let his wish come true for sure. He cast Elemental Order again, and many holes appeared in Matvienko’s magic robe!

“What…” This was Matvienko’s last thought before he turned into pus.

Since Lucien cast Charm Person, everything happened within just a few seconds.

At this time, a big hand formed by force field suddenly showed up in the air, trying to grab Matvienko, but it was too late.

Also, a fierce wind blew off the greenish-yellow smoke completely. Then, a man flew out of the window of the count’s room. He looked furious, as if he was very mad that he failed to save Matvienko.

Lucien sensed great danger. The man’s anger was like the boiling waves in a rough sea.

The man had gray hair and deep wrinkles. It was Semenov, Count Witte’s steward!

“Senior rank mage?!” Lucien was shocked.
