I created my own system

Chapter 104 A Core Part II

[He dodges it]

Now that is interesting, so I commanded my spell and the branches of lightning became one. My spear which became one with my spell regained its physical form and chased after the speedy enemy.

A sound of thunder and a scent of burning permeated the air while my spear impaled the priest.

"Huh?"

It seems my target is full of trickery, the man I just impaled slowly disappears leaving a chunk of wood on the cold floor of the temple.

I summoned my spear to return to me while I returned my attention to the archbishop.

"He is gone"

[I think the priest took him away]

"This is really interesting to think I can't even sense him"

[Neither do I Creator, so what should we do?]

"About that....well let's just use a spell to track them down"

I began to envision my spell then as I solidified its foundation a light began to draw something on the ground, a black magic circle.

Darkness element, Necromancy magic, Chasing souls.

Dark shadowy hands crawl out of the magic circle. Its eerie movements crept into the ground before chasing the soul of a certain man.

"It's good that you mark him"

[I felt suspicious so I marked their soul it's good I was right in doing so]

The hands travelled the entire temple in a matter of seconds, that's when the caster felt taken aback when he saw where they went.

"Is that a coffin?"

[It seems they are so excited to die that they want to be buried immediately]

"I don't really think that's the answer"

A coffin with ancient engravings, I never knew they had something like this.

"Translate it, Jeremiah"

[Translating.....

Translation acquired!

The one from the night

The one from sunrise

However, sleeps at dawn

Won't be able to return at dusk

Power of night, power of light

The day shall end and the night will come]

"Is this a riddle or something?"

[Dont know]

I shook my head I don't really have time with riddle so I just decided to teleport there. Teleporting was already an easy thing for me since I have been studying space and void before, that is why I was surprised when my teleportation was cancelled.

"Argh!"

Something blocked my spell and forced me to bump into the door, an iron door.

"Wow, if it weren't for my skill Light of Aegis my face would have been bruised because of this door"

[A powerful ancient spell is protecting this place we can't enter recklessly]

"Whatever"

I don't have time for this

[Being impatient is not good my Creator]

I know but I have this feeling that whatever is inside needs to be destroyed.

"I'll entire now"

My power surge and the authority of space activated.

I cast a spell again with the power of the blessings of Space I broke through the thing that's blocking me.

The inside of the room felt like entering a funeral with all the black and white ornaments. Then in the middle of the room is a black coffin.

"How can you enter!"

Ah, so that's the mysterious nimble enemy he looks light, quite thin and has sharp eyes. Immediately upon his discovery of me, he made a quick movement to attack me.

"Interesting"

He was really fast however I am faster.

Lightning spark while my senses spread out, I could read his movement so my next move would counter his.

"CLANG!"

My spear met his blade, I tried to keep our distance beneficial to me but this man used swift parrying skills to deflect my attack. His goal is to get in close quarters with his agility and deflecting techniques.

However, my speed and agility were my main strengths and now just parrying won't save him.

"Thunder Aura, Blue"

A fast-moving blue lightning danced across my spear and went straight to my enemy. I smirked when I noticed how he anticipated my attack, the white blinding light bound his body providing a boost to his movements. Sure he dodged but if he did.

"Argh!"

I will be there to take advantage of it.

My spear went through his chest and I could see his bewildered look. I thought he had somehow grasped my fighting style but it seems he didn't. In my point of view, my attacks are repetitive but hard to survive. You may know my next attack but can you be fully prepared for it?

"No!...argh!"

He tried to move despite being impaled but I don't really have any plans to let him live.

"Disintegrate"

My spear glows, amplifying the power of my skill and despite the layers of artifact for protection his body started to decay. Cracks started appearing until his entire body began falling apart.

"No!"

He struggles hard holding onto the spear to somehow remove it from his chest, but it does not move, it remains still until the man's body is reduced to dust.

"Finally"

The fight ended shortly but our exchange was more than that. It was a fast rain of techniques between my sudden thrust and sweeps and his parrying and agility movements.

[The coffin Creator something is odd with it]

I took my attention away from my previous opponent and went to the next one.

"Hmm?"

For a moment I recognized the symbols embedded on the top coffin's lid, it was different from the ones Jeremiah translated on the side.

"I know this magic circle"

As I said those words my body felt a sudden chill.

-However, sleeps at dawn

Won't be able to return at dusk-

These words made me realize it's a creature born from darkness, they sleep once the sun goes up and later return at the deepest part of the night not at dusk. However, riddles are not my forte that's why I want to see the coffin myself and turns out it was a very problematic creature.

"Vampire creation magic"

[And an ancient one]

This one might be too dangerous, especially the quotes from the coffin.

[The one from the night then one from sunrise

Does this mean something is opposing the power of the power?]

"I don't really care, I'll break this first"

I lifted my spear and put an adequate amount of essence to amplify my strike.

As I put all my strength into my attack a magic circle appeared before the coffin serving as protection but I didn't care and proceeded to break in.

A loud sound of impact along with waves of electricity washes over the place breaking everything and leaving only a black casket.

"That hurt!"

I felt like my arms would fall apart while my entire body felt jelly.

Since my attack didn't break the coffin the force I released ended up returning to me numbing my entire body in the process. If the coffin breaks then some of the force would dissipate through the breaking material. However it didn't, I was only able to break the protective magic around it but not the actual coffin.

[To think that a coffin has a strong resistant force]

"I felt numb"

"[You should think of ways to destroy the casket because according to my scanner something is brewing inside it]

"I know"

I stood up weakly since my body went flying when my spear came in contact with the coffin.

"It hurts damn it"

My vision was hazy but immediately went to normal though my balance was still a bit off.

This is annoying I thought while dusting my clothes.

[It's coming Creator]

"Yeah I can also see it"

The gears on my head are turning as the coffin lid opens a spell out of nowhere is cast.

"Lumina"

It was a fusion of magic darkness and fire element, Lumina.

Light and darkness became one blasting the shadow that flew out of the coffin.

"Argh!"

I heard a scream along with the scent of something burning.

Oh, I was right though I never anticipated it'll work like that.

[What did you do Creator]

This vampire is a daylight walker fire element spells won't work on him.

[But how did you know that fusion magic of darkness and fire can damage him]

I don't really know but I had a bunch through the riddle, it didn't say that the day can kill the night or how the night would win against the darkness, it's just saying how the light and darkness would switch as the day ends and night comes. It never states they will class but just a cycle that goes on in nature.

The light and darkness are both his strengths and also his weakness. Light can't harm a daylight walker and darkness too. So you must combine them that is their weakness. The harmony of the balance they fought to claim also came back to bite them down.

"Why!...argh it burns!"

[I still don't understand the logic you didn't explain it well enough]

I could only chuckle sometimes I forgot that my AI is only a few months old. Experience more on m v|l -NovelBin.net

"It's okay I don't get it either"

"I won't die!"

While me and Jeremiah talk the vampire priest casts a gospel to finally attack.

I raised my hand a magic circle was drawn.

Fusion magic, Fire and Darkness element, Eclipse
