Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest
chapter-634

"Elayne! You need to be careful, this bastard's at least B Rank! He might even be stronger than Gustaf… Phantasmos was a joke without having someone to possess, so Gustaf has been the strongest guy you've fought in Earth. This guy might be even stronger!" The Great Spirit whispered to Elayne's mind. "His ability and techniques with the sword are superb!"

"I know! But it's not as if I have any other way!" Elayne cried, as her sword clashed against Ernest's black blade.

As the two clashed against one another, it was quite clear who was much more experienced with one and who wasn't. Ernest parried her blows with ease and constantly covered Elayne's body with powerful slashing blows.

"Your sword techniques are incredibly poor!" Ernest roared. "Do you truly believe you can go against me with such feeble attacks?!"

"Of course not, that's why I've got magic!" Elayne roared, her Aura overflowing as hundreds of Light Bullets pierced through Ernest's armor, slowly beginning to spread many cracks through it!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

"Ungh?!" Ernest stepped back in pain, only to see Elayne's sword change its shape, as she imbued several tiny Earth Spirits that floated around her Terrain.

"[Spirit Fusion]!"

FLAAASH!

The sword became a huge stone hammer, imbued with holy light, she quickly unleashed a powerful exorcizing smite!

"[Wide-Area Exorcism]! [Heavenly Light Flash]!"

BAAAAAAMMM…!

Combining two of her strongest anti-undead spells at once, Elayne unleashed a powerful smithing attack with her huge hammer, Ernest barely managing to defend using his enormous sword.

However, the impact alone created shockwaves of heavenly light that started to burn his body. His cracked black armor began to shatter and crumble apart as well.

"Y-YOU…!" Ernest roared, quickly swinging his sword against Elayne in an act of clear desperation. Overflowing with large quantities of Nether, a tremendous slicing wave reached Elayne in a mere second! "[Underworld's Punishment]!"

SLAAAAASSSH!

"[Light Spirit Call]!" Elayne cried, as several sparks of light, tiny spirits of light emerged around her. Her fists overflowing with the power of her Armor and Equipment as the might of the Yggdragon emerged from within as well. "[Yggdragon's Light Breath]!"

Both techniques clashed against one another, darkness and light exploding and making the entire school building tremble, the windows shattered and the floor beneath them started to gain countless cracks.

BOOOOOOOMMM…!

"RAAAAAH!" The Death Knight pushed through the huge explosion, emerging from within the black smoke and pointing his sword towards Elayne's head. "I'll behead you in name of my lord!"

SLAAAASH!

"[Life and Light Chains of Restraint]!"

Before the huge sword attack could reach Elayne's neck, several chains made of light and life spirits emerged around the Death Knight's body, restraining his arms and legs, and stopping his movements.

"Ungh?! What the…?!" Ernest groaned. "More tricks?! You witch!"

"Call me whatever you want, you're just a freaking skeleton!" Elayne cried, one of her arms suddenly growing ten of times larger, composed of pure wood, as she overcharged it with several spirits at once. "[Elemental Spirit Fist]!"

BAAAAAAMMM…!

"URGH?!"

The huge impact hit Ernest's entire body, the death knight's armor shattered into pieces as his huge skeleton body was launched through the air, hitting the walls at the end of the corridor and piercing through it!

CRAAAAASSSH!

With a groan of agony, the death knight fell into the floor below, his entire body beginning to crumble apart. Elayne wanted to run into the gate while it was open, but she couldn't leave that monster roaming the city either.

"Dammit!" She ran outside the school, confronting the still kicking Death Knight as his crack-covered body slowly stood back up, his sword seemed completely unscathed.

"I've underestimated you, Yggdrasil…" Ernest groaned, his eyes glowing with bright blue flames.

The people that was gathered around the school panicked as they saw a huge skeleton of over three meters of height holding a black sword fall from the school, and their heroine, the masked lady, appear, jumping out to confront him.

"T-That's a huge skeleton…!"

"Where did it come from?!"

"A-A boss monster?"

In their surprise, many started filming. Ernest paid no mind to the onlookers, as his eyes were fixated on Elayne jumping from the school.

"Surprising, you're not going to save your daughter right away?" He asked. "Now that the way is open…"

"And let a monster like you roam the city? I have to destroy you before that happens." Elayne sighed. "Though, without your armor, you shouldn't-"

FLAAASH!

Suddenly, the Death Knight disappeared from the scene, arriving a split of a second later behind Elayne, his entire body shrouded on a phantasmal armor, not physical anymore, yet that still granted him special powers.

"Despite the lack of technique, your heart is that of a knight, I see." Ernest roared, his huge black sword hitting Elayne from behind!

"MEREEOW!"

However, the loud roar of a cat echoed, emerging from Elayne's shadows, Blackie created a powerful wall of darkness, managing to block the strong guillotine attack for a split of a second enough time for Elayne to step back!

"Blackie! Thank you!" Elayne sighed in relief, as her cat appeared from within her shadows, glancing at the skeleton while groaning furiously, the same groan that cats often do when they fight each other.

"Grrrhhhh…" He waved his tail angrily, powerful shadows emerging from within.

"Your familiar is your life saver once more." Ernest sighed. "But can it save you from this?! [Netherworld's Inferno]!"

Suddenly, the blue jewel on Ernest's chest glowed bright blue with phantasmal energy, as a huge magic circle emerged above Elayne and Blackie, unleashing a devastating inferno of phantasmal flames!

"Blackie!" Elayne cried, as she protected her savior with her own body, trying to run away but still being caught by the explosion.

BOOOOOOOMMMM…!

"Uwaaah!"

"N-No!"

"The lady!"

The people started to scream in panic, some began to run away the moment they realized Elayne could had been killed right there, leaving them with the skeleton to their own fates.

"Huh?!"

"No! Wait, look!"

"Who are they?!"

The people quickly noticed three new figures appearing within the smoke that the explosion provoked, their combined powers conjuring a barrier that protected Elayne from the explosion.

"Took you long enough…" Elayne sighed in relief as she saw her friends arrive in the very last moment.
