SPELLCRAFT: Reincarnation Of A Magic Scholar

Chapter 766 Battle Demon

"All done." The Nether spoke, returning his gaze to his dumbstruck audience.

Jared Leonard, humanity's champion, had long become ash, and his soul had been snuffed out. He was dead—in every sense of the word.

At first, only silence permeated the dark expanse.

Everyone was too devastated to utter a single word. Their eyes simply widened as their bodies remained still. It was as if they couldn't make up their minds on what to feel.

Anger? Sorrow? Regret? Shock? The list was too long for their brains to comprehend at once.

In the end, the onlookers gave gasps of despondency and pain.

"Now then…" The Nether grinned, slowly returning to Ciel's side. His satisfaction stemmed from the defeat of the only available contingency.

Now nothing was stopping him. Not anymore.

Jared's friends—his allies—could only watch powerlessly. None could stand up against the Nether.

"J-Jared, I…" Ana was too distraught to form a coherent speech.

She had been so upset at Jared that she had done something foolish because of it. She regretted it throughout her stay with Jane, but she just hadn't known how and when to tell him how badly she wanted to apologize.

But now… now she'd never have the chance.

Having lost Kuzon first, and now, Jared… she simply couldn't take any more. She could only crumble to her knees and weep helplessly.

Lemi was no different. She always blew off her father, and her relationship with him was paper thin. She had blamed him for abandoning her and her mother, and she often acted stubbornly towards him.

While she still felt that he was a jerk, Lemi knew he was much less of a jerk than she was.

"D-dad… no…" Her whispers were filled with emotion and her eyes displayed despair.

Then, there was Jane.

"J-Jare… Lewis…" Jane was also in deep agony.

While she didn't cry, her heart burned with immense pain. She fought off the tears this time, but her eyesight was blurry. Her head hurt ceaselessly, and she felt like something in her chest would explode.

'It hurts… it hurts so much!'

Tightly clutching her chest in pain and incomprehensible sorrow, she broke down as well.

The pain was not restricted to these three, though. Each person who watched was related to Jared in one way or the other. Even Kazen, who hadn't known him for very long, mourned his loss greatly.

"That boy… was a true Apostle…" She whispered amid the grief.

Well, once you looked through the crowd, there was perhaps only one person who wasn't grieving. However, she felt very sad that Jerry was. And as a result, her heart broke to see such a tragedy happen.

This truly was…

"Y-YOU….!!!" The loud surge of a rageful voice suddenly sounded.

An eruption of pure, destructive energy rose to an unprecedented degree. It was so terrifying that it made the onlookers forget their grief for a moment and look in the direction of the voice.

It belonged to Karlia!

Her bulging eyes were focused on the Nether, and her body emitted so much destructive power that it felt unreal—ascending far into the heavens.

With an expression akin to a beast, and all the energy around finally coalescing into her to form a more stable and concentrated source of power, Karlia growled and roared at the one who took her man from her.

"I'LL KILL YOUUUUUU!!!"

>WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSHHHHHH!!!<

Before a moment of thought could even be formed, Karlia closed the distance between her and her target, easily destroying everything in her wake.

Her body was covered in the energy she had absorbed from [The Sun], as well as the Martial Blade God, accompanied by several other pieces she had accumulated over the years.

All of that unused energy immediately burst out, causing her to reach heights she had never attained before.

Her body turned bright red, and her hair floated up in the sky. Horns appeared on her head, and her ears grew longer. Her fangs became bigger, and her eyes were glowing like death.

She felt like a demon beyond the realm of demons. A devil, in every sense of the word!

"RAAAAARRRRGHHHHHHH!!!!"

Launching her first strike, she was able to easily deflect the Nether Blast from the Nether's fingers, surprising the dark entity.

She dodged the next one, reaching him in two steps. Roaring with her mouth wide open, she unleashed a powerful breath attack that shot at point-blank range.

>BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!<

The ground, the moment it received her strike instead of the Nether shattered, sending debris around.

Her power was enough to destroy the earth so much so the water underneath it began to surge.

"DIEEEEEEEEEEE!!!" Ignoring the repercussions of her attack, Karlia lunged straight for where the Nether had vanished.

"What a beast." He stretched out his hand and unleashed a blast of Nether.

It corroded her body instantly, killing her off.

However—

"RUAAAAAARRRGHHHHH!!!"

—She appeared once more, grabbing the Nether by the throat as she violently hissed.

"What?"

A mere touch of his body caused her to instantly decay. However, she soon appeared once more, tightly holding him in her grasp.

"What are you even doi—"

The energy in her body became unstable, and she went critical. In no time, she self-destructed.

>BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!<

The shockwaves spread around for miles upon miles, and the skies were painted red.

"Haa… this one…" The Nether emerged from the blast, just as unscathed as he was from the earlier battles.

Karlia also emerged, completely fine as well.

"You're interesting. So you can't die, huh? I see…" The Nether's grin widened in a sadistic manner. "You shouldn't be too certain about that."

Karlia was ready to strike again, this time her body was covered in dark scaly armour. It seemed to improve her defences, but she was more concerned with offence.

Her wings transformed into pure energy, and her body followed long after. Now as a form of energy in a dark gleaming casing, she moved to strike down her enemy—one who was simply laughing as he watched her approach.

"This time, you'll stay dead."
