Chapter 303 Enraged Grand Knight

Chapter 303 Enraged Grand Knight

Looking at the bonus magic damage she could get when she used 6 elements, Shiro couldn’t help but nod her head in appreciation. The main problem with this skill was that at max potential, it would take an astounding 40% of her mana.

The worst part is that this is percentage based and not value based. Thus limiting when she could use it. After all, if she used up almost 50% of her mana instantly, that would but her in quite a dire situation.

{It’s quite a good opening skill I’d say. You can just get your MP back by sacrificing Ataraxia again can’t you?} Nimue reminded.

"That’s true. But I don’t want to stick to that all the time you know? Ataraxia is one of my main weapons outside of the god slaying sword. But in all honesty, I don’t know what to feel about that sword. It’s a little... suspicious if you know what I mean?" Shiro furrowed her brows.

{That’s true. If what you said is correct, the past owner is someone who hated the gods. Someone of his power should be able to leave a shard of his soul or something similar within a catalyst much like what the light goddess had done in order to try obtain Lisandra’s body.} Nimue nodded her head.

"Yeah. I’m not sure what the gods are capable of so I’ll try not to use Akram if I can help it." Shiro agreed.

After all, there is nothing in life without any risks. If she was to repair the sword to its peak, what if Vulcan the god slayer materialises along with the repaired sword? Such was her concerns with this convenient weapon.

Shaking her head, she walked into the fort without fear.

The moment she stepped inside, several shadows surrounded her and slashed towards her neck.

"Tch." Clicking her tongue, she sent out a concentrated mana pulse which slowed down their attack. This gave her just enough time to hop into the rift and make some distance between them.

Reappearing behind one of the assassins, she pressed her fingers against his back.

"Blossom." She grinned, taking a note out of Lyrica’s skill set.

*KRRRR!!!

Ice exploded out of his chest into the shape of a flower. Every petal that hit the other assassins would blossom into more flowers, causing a chain reaction.

After making sure that they’re dead, Shiro collected the loot.

"Ohya? That’s quite an interesting dagger..." She muttered.

[Assassin’s Razor LVL 80 – Purple]

+6000 Attack

+3000 Sharpness

+3000 Attack speed

+50% Critical Chance and Critical Damage when attacking in stealth

Skill: Silencing Aura

Silencing Aura:

When used, it stops the target from casting any abilities. While it cannot turn off passives or abilities that have already been cast, it can reduce their effects by 40%

Cost: 30,000MP Per use

Duration: 5 seconds

Cooldown: 5 minutes

While celestial path focused on destroying spells and such, this skill focused on preventing the use of spells. If she was able to combine both of these together, it would be the perfect skill to counter everyone.

Debating on whether or not she should recycle this or give it to Chen Yu, Shiro decided to keep it for now. If she found another dagger, she’ll recycle this one.

As for the other items that she got, they were only blue+ ranks and the materials were decent at best.

"Seems like I’m just unlucky for this wave of enemies." Shiro shrugged her shoulders lightly before making her way to the centre of the fort.

On the way, she was ambushed by a few more assassins but they were dealt with easily.

It was unfortunate that she wasn’t able to level up again but it didn’t matter too much. After all, she was already level 70.

*Creak....

Pushing open the doors, Shiro glanced at the figures in the room.

[Hell Fire Grand knight LVL 80 Boss]

HP: 80,000,000/80,000,000

MP: 130,000,000/130,000,000

[Hell Fire Knight Guards LVL 80 Elite]

HP: 40,000,000/40,000,000

MP: 40,000,000/40,000,000

There was one Grand Knight and three Knight guards.

Frowning slightly, Shiro narrowed her eyes warily.

’If the guide is correct, the three knights have a support skill that allows them to use themselves to keep the grand knight safe. If you kill the knights within the period that the support skill is up, the grand knight will gain one stack of rage. However, if you don’t kill the knight guards, the grand knight will heal his HP.

’Once he reaches three stacks of rage, his stats will increase by 25%.’

Since the guide was based around teamwork, Shiro will need to come up with her own strategy.

{My queen, I’m sure you can just kill the knight guards without worrying too much. That way, you can just fight it in a 1 v 1 situation rather than 1 v 4.}

’True, it shouldn’t be too hard.’ Shiro shrugged. With her arsenal of skills, facing off a level 80 boss alone should be easy enough for her.

Cracking her neck, she reinforced her body with mana.

*BOOM!

Stomping on the ground as hard as she could, she launched her body towards the boss.

Seeing this, the guards quickly moved in front of him and prepared to intercept Shiro.

"Heh, you three are the ones I’m going for." Shiro grinned.

Twisting her body, she activated Fae Illusions and had a fake copy of her send out ice spikes at the guards. While this was happening, she circled around them, ready to strike at any moment.

Just as the guards raised their shields, they had effectively exposed their unguarded backs to Shiro.

Her eyes gleamed with sadistic intent as she created three tier 3 magic circles in between their legs.

*PUCHI!!!!!

The Grand Knight paused in shock as he watched three columns of ice pierce his subordinates.

Their horrified cries rang out while Shiro created three ice hammers and slammed it against their heads, forcing them to go further down into the spikes.

[Warning: Hell Fire Grand Knight has just gained 10 stacks of rage. Stats increase by 100%]

". . . the f*ck?"

{. . .}

Quickly jumping away from the knight, she wondered how in the hell did he gain 10 stacks despite apparently only being able to get 3.

However, the grand knight wasn’t about to let someone who humiliated his underlings to this extent live.

*BOOM!!!

A pulse of mana exploded out from him, rooting Shiro in place and stopped her from moving her body.

’Damn a control skill!’ She frowned.

Quickly activating her magic, she created two ice walls in front of her in an attempt to buy herself some time.

*CRACK!!!

Stabbing his spear into the wall, the Grand Knight gritted his teeth and lifted them out of the ground.

"Holy sh*t..." Shiro widened her eyes.

Never had she seen someone just straight up lift her ice wall aside rather than destroy it.

Twisting the spear in his hands, the Grand Knight sent the wall flying towards her.

*BANG!!!

Crashing against her body, Shiro was broken out of the control skill and quickly healed herself.

Rift Walker!

Jumping into the rift, she reappeared above the Grand Knight with a shotgun in her hands.

*CLANG!!!!

Firing the gun, she watched as the Knight was sent sliding back.

"Damn, what a hard armour." She frowned.

Tracing her finger along the barrel of the shotgun, she morphed it into a sniper and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

*BANG!

Knocking his helmet off his head, Shiro prepared to launch her second shot but an overwhelming sense of danger overwhelmed her instincts.

"Tch!" Clicking her tongue, she immediately jumped into the rift.

When she exited, she saw a large spear sticking out of the ground while the tip was on fire.

If she didn’t move, she would have been skewered in a similar manner to the guards.

"Now, I know that it’s real funny coming from me, but would you consider the option of not targeting a lady’s rear?" Shiro asked with a slightly forced smile.

Scoffing lightly, the Grand Knight slammed the pommel of his spear into the ground. A huge magic circle expanded out of him as Shiro felt a sense of danger once again.

Jumping into the air, she watched as the entire ground was soon filled with spears.

"Tch, how annoying." She muttered.

The boss had an unblockable control skill along with several large are of effect skills, not only that, he was also twice as strong as he should be. Such a combination was surely a pain in the ass. Literally.

"Well I guess I can’t play around anymore..."

Landing softly against the ground, her smile faded away as she activated Celestial Armament and Celestial Element Wheels.

Choosing Astral Ice as the element, the surrounding area was instantly frozen without her doing anything.

"Fuu...." Breathing out a mouthful of cold air, Shiro summoned Ataraxia and charged at the Grand Knight.
