Chapter 91 The Power of the Oath
Chapter 91 The Power of the Oath
My body felt warm, no, I actually felt it was burning.
A loud thud came after and the holy army felt aghast when they saw their archbishop flying into the air.
"ROAR!"
The dragon Fafnir finally abandons my spear and flies straight to his master.
"I won't let you get away!" I said growling like a beast.
The light on my spear intensifies due to its continuous absorption of the essence, then as soon as Fafnir catches the archbishop I release one of my spear's abilities.
The spear is endowed with various enchantments that I put and one of them is an ancient spell used for making spell books. It was meant to store spells and use them to let beginner mages cast spells. However, I made my spear into a storage kit for my spells.
The spell activation brought my weapon is similar to instant incantation and scrolls.
It was an instant spell embedded in my weapon, one swing from me and that spell was released.
The blue light that is generated from the spear turns into a spark until it transforms into lighting.
Three hundred million volts paralyze the two while fifty thousand decrease Fahrenheit heat burn them.
Their barrier wasn't able to protect them because Jeremiah's spell jamming broke their protective shield.
With that attack Fafnir completely disintegrate. The beast generated from a gospel took the full blunt of my attack and died down.
[They are falling fast]
"I know and I am not done yet"
I can still see their heart pulsating through Jeremiah's scanner.
For a moment I saw it stop but it immediately resumed its beating.
I didn't like it so I moved and let my wings guide me to my target.
"Hey"
I said as I appeared before him however he seemed to be prepared because a magic circle spread out and produced a spell right before my face.
It was another gospel.
It was chantless
I didn't hear any sound of incantation so either it was an instant spell or a delayed spell.
Instant spells are spells produced by instant incantation, this skill skips the process of casting spells and proceeds to activation.
Delayed spells or lag spells on the other hand are spells that have delayed activation. Some delayed spells activated ten minutes after being cast while the longest is an hour.
Well back to my situation the spell already blasted in front of me.
"Annoying!"
Then my eyes saw how the mana on the surroundings became solid and turned into a shield.
The exchange was done fast since I could predict that my opponent's next move is another powerful gospel.
I swung my spear and used its force to break the incoming gospel like I previously did.
"!?"
However, to my surprise my attack didn't work and the spell directly went to my face.
"That's strange"
It was a very different gospel from the first and the most notable part is.
"His spell is eating my barrier"
My skill Light of Aegis is being nullified by eating the solidify mana and now the spell will directly hit me.
Though it was alarming my eyes caught the archbishop gathering another round of attack.
"Stop"
My voice commanded the time and it obeyed gladly.
The time surrounding the spell stopped while my opponent felt horrified, he had never anticipated that a blessing would be used by a demon.
"Just what are you!" he shouted so I gave him an appropriate answer.
"A monster"
A united voice spoke simultaneously.
I was doing fine until a notification pop up.
[The Oath is charging the Creator's emotion
Shall I try to nullify it?]
"What...is t...the...percentage of...success.."
Jeremiah's voice made my head a bit clearer though the unexplained anger was still there. I tried to fight back, tried to gain control however the force soon drowned me.
I lost my senses until a punch knocked me over.
"What are you doing you retarded airhead"
Alicia's voice crept in and the darkness disappeared.
"Huh?"
Her eyes looked annoyed making me feel uncertain.
"Sorry"
I could only say before returning my focus to my opponent in the Ninth temple.
"???"
What's going on?
[You release the skill disintegrate and wipe out the entire region]
"I did?"

[Yes Creator, by accumulating the essence of the deceased you were able to amplify the range of the skill]
"I see no wonder the place becomes barren so I really destroyed the place"
The entire region was reduced to pieces, my skill Disintegrate can turn anything into a state of decay. Amplified with an abundant amount of essence it turns the already burned forest into wasteland.
However, despite the severity of the place, a single light could be seen shining.
A white holy dome spreads wide to protect its people.
There the archbishop stood still using his most powerful defensive gospel to protect his men. He tried his best but his strength was limited.
"What happened to him?"
[The archbishop saw some of his men turn into ashes before being swept by a huge gust of wind]
"No wonder he is like that"
I just don't know why I feel this way
There was no remorse
Strangely I feel nothing
As if someone had taken them
[The Oath is still in effect Creator your emotions are currently locked because of it]
"No wonder I can't feel anything"
[At least you can think properly a while ago I couldn't even speak to you. All you did was use your skills and spells to attack the archbishop]
"And it seems my attacks are all useless"
[Not true at all, you were able to force the archbishop to use all of his hidden and precious artifacts]
"Really?"
[Yes and that dome is the last one]
"I see"
I couldn't help but sigh, I desired to analyze spells and techniques from them but due to some strange Oath's interference, my plan was spoiled.
I have been drawing things, and prolonging this fight making the situation undesirable.
I should end this
So I raised my hand and prepared to attack.
From a certain distance, I saw how the injured priest forced his body to move.
"Your grace!"
"Archbishop!"
"Let us help you!"
Their desperate cries break through the will of the strongest priest and so with his heart full of doubt, he gave his command.
"Give me your prayers!"
I release my spell no longer holding back.
The energy of the deceased amplified my spell as the flames of hell gathered.
It was one of the spells I learned from staying inside The Red Sun tower.
The spell formula formulated inside my head, then it transformed my thoughts into imaging. A spell that was derived from the abyss. My mind calculated the distance and speed of which the spell would take and so the spell took its physical form and came out from a magic circle.
Combustion took place while my mana became the fuel that kept the flames burning. By manipulating my mana's quantity I could control my spells size and speed.
This casting only lasted a second before being blasted towards my opponent.
Black obsidian flames turn into a dragon flying straight towards my enemy.
[The spell's overall power has been strengthen due to the power of the Oath]
"So that damn thing had such a thing"
The Eternal Oath that popped out of nowhere inside me.
As far as I remember I made no such Oath to anyone.
So why do I have it?
And why does my father seem to have it as well?
Such thoughts were running inside my head until a voice stopped my thoughts.
{Apollo don't kill them yet}
Samael's voice made me confused however my spell was already on its way to the remaining group of priests.
"Now this is confusing"
Typical spells can't be controlled once the caster fires it however my spells are different, I can control and manipulate it at will.
My hand made a motion trying to divert my spell's direction, however...
"Damn it!'
I can't move my body as if chains are bounding me.
{Apollo?}
"Yeah I am fine"
[Notification Alert!
The Oath is interfering with the Creator's will
You won't be able to stop the spell without the Oath's permission]
"Non-...sense!"
I gathered my will and tried to break free.
What a load of crap, I will break this shit
I raised my hand and with all my strength, I was able to move the spell for a few inches, not completely on the target but it still hit.
A huge explosion happened and to my surprise, it seemed my interference wasn't needed.
"They survived"
Even though I moved the spell to save them it wasn't enough to fully remove the impact of my attack.
"But for some reason, they are all fine"
My eyes scanned the dome and saw a being calmly flying above the group of priests.
It was a being with white pure wings and a hazy halo at its head. His body is clad in golden full armour while his hand holds a flaming sword.
My eyes flared with anger when I recognised it was Excalibur.
"How dare they"
