Undying Warlord

Chapter 293 Near-death

Dilan was tightly holding onto the eagle’s plumage as it reared up. Its physical strength was stronger than Dilan’s but that did not matter in the current situation.

The Blazing Serpentine Blade had disappeared in Dilan’s storage ring and he was using all his might to not fall off the eagle’s back. It tried to shake him off hard and moved violently while making use of its wings, talons, and head but Dilan maintained an iron grip.

Lifting one hand, a CrimsonClaw dagger appeared within it. He spun it inside his hand smoothly before he used his whole force to pierce the dagger inside the purple-feathered eagle.

When the CrimsonClaw dagger’s tip and the eagle came into contact, Dilan heard a crack. Pain spread through his entire left hand all of a sudden and his eyes widened slightly.

“I cannot even injure you despite using my whole strength and the CrimsonClaw Dagger?” Dilan grit his teeth in annoyance as he felt how the CrimsonClaw dagger crumbled in his hand.

His hand was not broken from the crackling metal that reduced to pieces in his hand but that was merely owed to his high Health stat. Dilan was quickly healing, which allowed him to overcome what awaited him just a moment later.

As it was rendered unable to use any physical means to attack Dilan, the purple-feathered Eagle screeched out in anger. It created a highly concentrated bolt of lightning on its back.

The monster planned to attack Dilan with a bolt of lightning at first but because it could tell that Dilan’s agility was not to be underestimated the purple-feathered eagle evenly spread out the bolt of lightning all over its back.

“Argghh!!” A groan escaped Dilan as he felt electricity charging through his entire body. Blood trickled out of his nose but Dilan didn’t even think of letting go of the purple-feathered eagle.

He held onto its feathered body tightly, while seeing that the monster changed its tactic again. Instead of trying to attack Dilan, the eagle started to attack Ailee and the others.

Blood-Ice needles blasted in the eagle’s face before it reached the others but the attacks barely fazed the monster.

The purple-feathered eagle blocked Victoria’s hail of Blood-Ice attacks with its wings before it lunged at Ailee, who was the closest to the monster and therefore an easy target.

Oliver appeared in Ailee’s shadow. He screamed out in rage and was ready to give his life if he could protect Ailee by doing that. Using his entire mana, he activated [Shadow Image] to create two shadow images of himself while his body was shrouded in shadows as well.

Simultaneously, he executed [Violent Strike] with all three shadow images. Shadow images couldn’t be used to attack or defend under normal circumstances but Oliver ignored this as he used his entire mana to fuse the shadow images in the shadows that shrouded him.

Through this, his Violent strike became much stronger as the mana normally utilized for three [Violent strike] uses was executed in one. The shadow images merged with his attack providing an additional enhancement in Oliver’s attack.

Oliver slashed at the eagle’s beak with all his might as it dove down at them. The purple-feathered eagle was not the slightest bit scared as it faced Oliver’s attack head-on.

Rather than fear, its eyes were overflowing with mockery. It was almost as if the monster had expected something like this.

For the first time since the Primordial Ascension had started, Oliver and the others witnessed the scheming of a seemingly ordinary monster. The purple-feathered eagle was clearly more intelligent than other monsters, which one could tell when it opened its beak to shoot a bolt of lightning out of it.

The bolt of lightning collided with Oliver’s attack and it was just a second later that Oliver’s entire body was momentarily paralyzed. He was unable to move and he would have fallen to the ground if it was not for his feet that were firmly planted on the ground.

The purple-feathered eagle didn’t waste time after throwing a bolt of lightning at Oliver as it closed its beak to continue the attack.

Oliver could see death dancing in front of him as the eagle’s beak got closer with a speed that exceeded his own by far.

However, just when Oliver was about to get pierced by the beak of the purple-feathered eagle, it let out a horrendous screech.

The monster’s attack was forcefully interrupted as multiple blazing Molotov daggers, arrows, fireballs and Blood-Ice icicles exploded right on the eagle’s face.

All these attacks were more than enough to distract the purple-feathered eagle but Dilan’s attack was what caused the monster to scream out.

He had manifested another CrimsonClaw dagger in his hand moments after the first one turned into thousands of shards.

However, this time Dilan didn’t even think about attacking the purple-feathered eagle as stupidly as before.

The monster had a much higher physical resistance than its mana resistance. Dilan concluded this because Victoria’s attacks were working while his attack hadn’t worked.

He knew that he was stronger than her even after she regained all her strength. By connecting the dots he realized that he had made a grave mistake and chosen the wrong way to attack the purple-feathered eagle before.

More than 30 Units of Mana were compressed inside the CrimsonClaw dagger as he activated [Mana Slash]. The Crimson Claw dagger was already cracking because it was incapable of handling any more mana that could be compressed in the blade’s rather small body.

Dilan didn’t care about this at all as he continued to attack. The Mana Slash cut inside the monster’s neck the moment Dilan released it.

This was what caused the purple-feathered eagle to give a whimpered cry of pain. Instinctively, it sensed that something was wrong. Flapping its wings it took flight in the air, while Dilan was still clinging to its back.

Angered and annoyed, the eagle was using the vast majority of mana to prepare to attack Dilan with all its might. Nobody had been able to face it before but the eagle now realized that it had been too arrogant. It fought too recklessly and ended up in a situation, where it was not able to escape anymore, not if it didn’t make use of every weapon and trick in its arsenal.

However, Dilan noticed this and he didn’t want to allow the Eagle to flee, let alone that he was going to get roasted by the attack the monster was about to discharge in the air.

“Even if your physical resistance is fucking high, there has to be a limit, you fucking piece of shit!!” Dilan screamed out and activated [Bearer of Pain] to refill the entire mana he had used up.

The more life force was drained from Dilan the stronger he started to feel. [Bracing Pain]’s amplification increased the more severe his injuries grew and the moment he reached the highest amplification, Dilan was ready to end the purple-feathered eagle’s life.

The third CrimsonClaw dagger was filled with a total of 50 Units of Mana. This was everything he could utilize to activate [Mana Slash]’s strongest attack.

It may not be possible for the CrimsonClaw dagger to make the most use of a Mana Slash that had been activated with 50 Units of Mana but that was not something Dilan was concerned about.

The overflowing mana could just discharge within the purple-feathered Eagle, killing it!

Issuing a war cry, Dilan used his Strength that exceeded 120 Units after all the amplifications he received and brought down his hand tightly gripping the crumbling CrimsonClaw dagger.

It pierced through the eagle’s purple feathers, and the skin underneath before sinking right into its flesh.

When the CrimsonClaw dagger pierced through the flesh he released the [Mana Slash] that shot out at once.

Just a moment later the CrimsonClaw dagger was destroyed but Dilan couldn’t care less about that as the strongest attack he had ever created wreaked havoc inside the purple-feathered eagle.

The Mana Slash cut through its flesh, bones, and internal organs and it was not even two seconds after Dilan’s final attack that the remnants of mana were released explosively.

The eagle’s body expanded and it looked like it was about to die.

But Dilan was not patient enough to wait for it to die. He wanted it to die right here and right now without giving a way to escape.

Lifting both hands over his head, he used all his remaining mana to shroud his hands with it. Tightly holding his hands together he brought his arms down at the exact same location he pierced through the eagle’s flesh.

“Die!!”
