Chapter 638 Rudra Back To His Tricks
Chapter 638 Rudra Back To His Tricks
?
( Angakok's POV )
Angakok felt absolutely miserable fighting against Kane.
Max's body had no divine essence whatsoever which meant that Angakok could not use some of his most potent moves that could actually push Kane back, but was forced to give every second his all just to survive.
Kane was exponentially faster than the body Angakok was in and was not even really trying his fullest to kill Angakok but rather just testing the waters to understand his real strength.
It wasn't a stretch to say he was extremely surprised to see a mortal able to evade his assault for a full 30 seconds as it was an outcome that he had never thought was possible.
" I must give you credit, Lord Ravan Bloodfall or whoever you are inhibiting his body for managing to block 4 of my attacks cleanly.
It's a feat no mortal can ever hope to achieve and it makes me realise why they call you the rising star of the light faction.
Unfortunately for you however, you won't live to ever narrate this tale as I must end this fight now and flee before emperor Cervantez arrives " Kane said as he began gathering his divine essence to deliver what would surely be a decisive blow.
Angakok felt his nerves tingle, the attack that Kane would unleash would surely be no joke, yet for him to prevent it from killing this body would be a monumental task.
Exhaling deeply, the shaman god steeled his nerves and strengthened his resolve as he calmly waited for his impending doom.
[ Demonic Lance ]
Dark energy surged all around Kane as it appeared as if he was standing in the middle of a beam of pure dark energy.
A pitch black spear manifested itself in his hands which he threw with all his power towards Angakok as it pierced through the air with an ear splitting sonic boom!
[ Sanctum Spiritus ]
Angakok activated his strongest defensive move that did not require divine essence, casting an ethereal protective dome around Max's body which was fuelled by the power of the fallen dead souls of the nearby battlefield.
As the Demonic Lance collided with the barrier, sparks began to flow at the point of collision as the tip of the spear began progressively digging deeper and deeper into the barrier which began to crack under the pressure of the attack.
This was the best that Angakok could do at the moment as inside the dome he crossed his arms and protected Max's vital parts, hoping for the best, yet prepared for the worst.
**********
( Meanwhile Rudra )
The moment Kane's body was covered in dark energy, Rudra understood the attack he was going to cast as he himself had a similar move in his own skill-set.
Instead of being powered by the dark power, his move was powered by the holy power giving it the name [ Holy Lance ]
Rudra knew just how powerful the attack was and perfectly understood that Angakok's barrier was never going to be able to stop its power.
When the attack collided against the barrier, Rudra used the power of the seed of chaos to silently start absorbing the dark power inside the demonic lance as he weakened the attack from a distance without involving himself directly in the conflict.
As the cracks in Angakok's barrier increased, so did Rudra's anxiety as in the end it was his brother's life which was on the line.
Fortunately for him, however, he managed to weaken the attack to the point where when it did eventually break the barrier, it could only penetrate Max's left arm-guard and bone before stopping and not hitting any vital areas.
Kane who saw this development was absolutely stupefied as his usual expressionless face was replaced by a small frown and slightly widened eyes as he began to contemplate his next course of action.
Understanding full well that he could not dally around at this spot any longer for Emperor Cervantez was almost upon him he decided to tuck his tail and flee as he decided to kill Max some other day.
However, just as he turned to leave Rudra who had just received a very potent weapon, shouted from the ground below -
" HEY, THE WHITE HAIR NEAR MY GROINS CAN DO BETTER SPEARMANSHIP THAN YOU.
DON'T GO AROUND CALLING YOURSELF THE HUMAN SOVEREIGN YOU WEAKLING ".
Kane who did not even care about Rudra's tier1 existence could not help but glance at the pebble like mortal below as the insult that Rudra had thrown at him struck an angry cord.
" Cheese "
The moment Kane looked at him, Rudra activated the [ Maya Astra ] as a blinding flash bound the human sovereign in an illusion.
Inside the illusion, Kane flicked his finger and chopped Rudra's body into 1000 pieces for the insult that he threw at him and then began flying away at high speed towards his base camp as Emperor Cervantez arrived at the battle-scene only to find out that his opponent had already flee'd.
In reality, however, he was standing at the same spot as Rudra had effectively trapped him in an illusion that aligned perfectly with the outcome that Kane most desperately wanted to be true.
The illusion began to crumble for Kane once he reached his base and felt that something was off as everyone's movements seemed perfectly aligned to what he wanted them to be.
The guards were standing upright and vigilant, the human soldiers were training instead of playing poker and the camp looked way too clean to belong to his dirty troops.
It was at that moment that he realised that he was in an illusion and managed to reboot his brain to snap out of it, however, to his absolute horror, he was still standing on the battlefield a few hundred metres across from Ravan Bloodfall as Cervantez came zooming in towards him with his sword drawn.
" ##$$@@@#$@ " Kane cursed as he held his spear with both his hands to block the incoming attack, but glanced at the old man standing below him as he realised that it was the old man who had screwed him today.
