The Legendary Ghost Hunter
chapter-83

"Seeing as how you were able to activate your Angelica to start up the iFrame earlier, I'm assuming you know how to circulate your mana," Elder Hua said. "I'm not expert on this Angelica, but from what I know, the Stormbringer Angelica is all about controlling the lightning in your mana. Naturally, the advanced Abilities Patriarch Lei uses requires this."

"I can pretty much control it, though I haven't mastered it completely yet," Finn replied honestly. "I'll see what I can do."

'He can already control it, despite being 'new' to the Ghost Hunter world…?' Elder Hua thought skeptically. 'Well, it doesn't matter, I suppose. He won't be able to use this anyway. After all, even Patriarch Lei can only use this Ability once everyday due to the sheer amount of mana it needs. I'm just humoring him because… actually, why am I doing this? I don't even know myself.

Perhaps, somewhere deep down, I genuinely felt like there was a sliver of chance that this boy could actually pull it off?

Ha, no way.'

"Well, whatever you say," Elder Hua said with a sigh, shaking his head. "Just know that I've warned you. Spread your arms."

Finn did as told, letting the electric aura around his body course through his veins. His copy did the same.

"Good. Keep your palms open and chant with me. Ah… how did it go again… oh, right."

Clearing her throat, Elder Hua's expression took a serious turn and she began the chant.

"Come, chaotic levin, I hereby release thy seal."

"Come, chaotic levin, I hereby release thy seal-" Finn repeated calmly as he felt energy begin flowing towards his hands.

"Cleanse this world of evil and turn all enemies mine into nothing but ash."

"Cleanse this world of evil and turn all enemies mine into nothing but ash-"

Finn felt electricity converge within the palms of his hands, just waiting to be released. It was difficult to control, but he managed to pull it off thanks to the little bit of practice he did before Archon called him downstairs to discuss the matter with Storm.

"Become my blade, Divine Lightning…"

"Become my blade, Divine Lightning-"

Dark clouds began forming above Finn's head, accompanied by thunder and sparks of lightning-

"Stormbringer's Wrath!"

"-Stormbringer's Wrath."

Suddenly, Finn's body floated up from the ground as two spheres of violent energy appeared in his hands, one in each. Blue electricity sparked all around him as lightning crashed into the dojo's wooden floor, paired with a real storm that appeared above the whole squadron base.

Elder Hua's eyes widened in shock, body trembling a bit. "No way… this boy… he really…"

[Finn. Try clasping your hands together~]

Faced with this little suggestion from Zelestria, he decided to listen to it. Slowly, he lifted his arms up. The two orbs of arc energy began drifting towards one another before finally converging into a bigger one directly above Finn's head. The new sphere of destruction was enormous — too big for the dojo to handle.

The roof was blown away, the walls torn to pieces. The iFrame facing Finn was unable to copy this and ended up being sucked into the black hole of lightning as well, instantly dismantled into mechanical pieces.

"Ngh-!" Elder Hua and the others outside fled for cover as the debris all around flew towards Finn and formed a spinning shock field around the orb of power. The electricity mixed with the sheer size and density of the sphere gave it gravitational pull as it continued to wreak havoc on the building, expanding to the other floors as well.

"Tch…! FINN! CANCEL IT!" Elder Hua yelled, but the storm overhead and thunder crashing down all around Finn made it impossible for him to hear.

In the matter of a few seconds, the entire upper half of the dojo had been utterly obliterated, the torn-apart remains feeding into the massive black hole and making it grow even larger.

"Finn!" Iris, Fanatic, and Octane also joined in on the shouting, but their voices were similarly drowned out by the chaos happening all around. In fact, the only reason they haven't gotten sucked in to the black hole yet was because of Reaper's scythe that had lodged deep into the ground, which they all held on to in a train-like pattern.

By this point, the sphere of electricity had reached the diameter of a basketball court — and that's not counting the shock field rotating around it, destroying anything it comes into contact with on an atomic level. And the worst part was, since Finn couldn't see, he had no idea just how much damage he was causing right now. All the sounds of destruction was drowned out by the thunder ringing in his ears, which he judged to normal.

High above the ball of destruction and its force field of debris, the silhouette of a creature could be made out within the dark, ash-gray thunderclouds. It looked like a dog, but the raging howl it unleashed was more similar to that of a wolf.

[Fufu~] Zelestria giggled inside Finn's head, amused by the scene. [Now this is what I call 'wrath', no~?]

The beast's spine-chilling roar caused people from all over the sect to look over to see what's going on. A massive blue 'black hole' made of pure electricity with hordes of spinning debris around it had just suddenly appeared, along with a mysterious yet undeniably powerful creature lurking within the dark thunderclouds and rain.

But to one such person, this was no mysterious creature. To him, it was something more — something he had sought all his life.

Hearing the familiar beast's cry of rage, the man — Lei Feng — quickly ran out of his office and looked up at the clouded sky. And when he did, he nearly fell over, stumbling backwards a few steps as his eyes widened in astonishment and utter shock.

"Heavens… to think I would be able to witness this in my lifetime…
