Primordial Soul's Rebirth

Chapter 278: CHAPTER 278 - Panoplis.

Alex, who was in the dust, took out his simple sword - Varethian.

He then grinned as he saw the dubious looks in the demon generals' eyes. He could tell why they were looking at Varethian with such eyes.

He would've done the same if he were in their place.

After all, who would believe a simple-looking sword with no aura is actually strong?

'Var, show them your power….'

Alex called out to his sword, and in response, it just trembled slightly, showing its happiness before…..

*Dun*

The aura of the sword was released.

Alex's lips tugged into a smug smile as he saw the dumbfounded look on the demons' faces.

They were shocked, so much so that they forgot that he was their enemy, and the longer they waited, the stronger he got.

But that was just the aura of the sword….

'And they are already shocked.

Why don't we show them what more you can do?'

Alex smiled as he looked at Vrethian.

The sword, on the other hand, just vibrated, agreeing with Alex's words before it started to condense into a ball.

The demons who saw that grew more shocked.

'Shape changing weapons?!'

They had never even heard about such a weapon.

The strongest weapon in their world didn't have that ability, much less the weaker ones.

But suddenly Valerius's eye widened.

"Attack him!"

He hurriedly ordered, and the other demons who heard his words also had their eyes widened.

How could they forget their main purpose, right now?!

Why were they standing here giving Alex more time to power up?!

The demon generals exchanged a look, nodding at each other before the attacking process started again.

This time, however, Alex was going to fight back, and he was going to fight back, real hard.

"Keep your distance. Don't go close to him.

Whatever is protecting him, must have some kind of limit."

Malak hurriedly warned his companions, and the other three demons nodded their heads before they started preparing for their attacks.

"Come out, my soldiers."

Morvan was the first one to make a move as she waved her hand.

*Crack**Crack*....

Right after that, the ground around Alex started to crack.

Alex, however, didn't have time to look at it….

"Blood Lance."

A low voice, almost as if a whisper was heard, and a spear made of blood was shot at Alex.

Alex, again, shot a blast of destruction toward the blood lance.

*Boom*

The attacks clashed with each other, creating a red blast, but the spear was blocked.

However, Alex realized that he wasn't going to get a chance to catch one breath.

*Woosh* X5

Five wind blades were headed right toward his limbs and neck, but Alex just activated the zone again.

*Fwish*

The wind blades vanished as soon as they touched the barrier made of the zone, shocking the demons, Nyx especially.

"Heh.."

Alex even gave Nyx, who had sent the last attack a mocking grin.

'That bastard!'

Causing Nyx to clench his fists in anger and frustration.

Nyx was a poison and wind element user.

However, he couldn't go close to Alex so that he could use poison, and now, even his wind attack somehow failed as soon as it reached Alex.

These things already frustrated Nyx, but now, looking at Alex's grin, Nyx was gritting his teeth.

'If not for Valerius's warning, you would've been dead already!'

Nyx just glared at Alex only to see a wider smirk on Alex's face, though it was not long before Alex's attention was shifted to something else.

*Crack*

Alex's eyes shifted to the crack in the ground, and suddenly a bone hand came out….

*Crack*

Then another…

*Crack*

And another…

*Crack*....

Just like that, 30 more of them started to come out of the ground.

Then slowly, those bone arms pulled out the entire body….

*Clank**Click*....

With a clunking sound from the armor they were wearing, the skeleton soldiers that appeared from the ground, slowly started to stand up.

'So, this is necromancy…'

Alex, on the other hand, looked at the skeleton soldiers with appreciation.

However, soon, a grin made its way to his lips.

'I want it!'

An ability to summon the dead?

Of course, Alex would want that.

For now, however, Alex focused on the battle.

*Woosh* X3

But just as he was about to turn toward the skeleton soldiers, 3 flame lances were shot at him.

"SIgh…."

Alex just sighed audibly at that.

He didn't even turn back, he just activated his zone again, and as soon as the flame lances hit the barrier of the zone…

*Fwish*

Just like the wind element, they vanished as well.

*Slash*

*Clang*

Alex, on the other hand, defended the slash that a skeleton soldier had thrown at him.

Didn't Alex have Varethian turn into a ball?

Yes, he had, but even if it was a ball, it was still as strong as it was before.

'A bow.'

However, Alex didn't bring out Varethian to keep it as a ball, so he commanded it to change its shape.

*Swoosh*

The ball brightened and it suddenly transformed into a simple-looking bow with a black body and silver string.

*Smash*

Just as Varethian transformed into a bow, Alex smashed the bow into the head of the skeleton soldier who was again rushing at him with his rusted sword.

*Boom**Crack*

A boom was heard followed by the sound of bones cracking before the skeleton soldier was thrown away.

*Crumble*

The soldier crumbled as it fell to the ground.

*Slash* X4

But there was not just one skeleton soldier, was there?

The sound of four sword slashing was heard and Alex simply coated his hand with destruction energy and….

*Boom**Boom*

He punched the skeletons with his fist coated in destruction, reducing them to dust with just that.

"Phew…."

Alex then breathed out a large puff of air.

"Now then, let's get a bit more serious," Alex muttered, but then he heard Malak yell.

"He's not being protected by that thing!"

Malak, who had been observing Alex, pointed it out.

Alex, on the other hand, just tilted his head in confusion.

'How did he come to that conclusion?'

Alex had deactivated the zone since he was fighting skeletons, something that didn't have body heat…

'Ah…

So, the skeletons being able to fight with me at close range was the reason…'

Alex realized it pretty quickly, but he didn't panic.

'It's better this way.'

Instead, he just grinned as he saw both Malak and Nyx rushing at him.

'Zone.'

Alex just activated the zone again before he ignored Malak and Nyx.

Mostly Malak since that guy could actually do him some harm.

Nyx was never his focus, he was more like the side character who's just there because he happened to be there.

Nyx's strongest ability was useless in front of Alex, so Nyx was useless in this fight.

'Destruction - Panoplis.'

Alex focused on the new thing he had come up with.

In all the time he had, he didn't just train his space ability.

Alex was mastering his destruction ability the most, after all, it was a very versatile ability.

*Sizzle*

The ground started to sizzle as the amount of destruction energy leaking out of Alex's body increased in just an instant.

And before Malak or Nyx could even come in contact with the zone, Alex was already covered in destruction energy from head to toe.

"Right on time…"

Alex muttered, his features covered with destruction energy, but his eyes were shining with a gleeful light.

'Zone out.'

Alex deactivated his zone, ready to take the punch that Malak had thrown at him.

*BOOM*
