Chapter 1327: Miasmic Clones
"ROOAAR!"
The Miasmic monsters groaned furiously, rushing towards us all at once. Despite being less in number than before, this time they weren't constantly trying to escape, but were actively fighting us and trying to gang on us, all while the Domain of the Miasmic Nest Lord boosted their stats.
They moved swiftly and precisely, and took upon humanoid forms, wielding armor, and weapons. We all clashed against them, we couldn't stick together too much though, if we wanted to end this quickly, each one of us had to take several of them at the same time.
I summoned most of my Familiars into battle, as they started a bombardment of magic spells and attacks. Ignatius unleashed countless meteors of fire, Naturia fired her divine seeds that exploded into sharp roots and blinding light, Yggdra conjured giant spears of sharp wood imbued with holy spirit energy, even Alice participated, firing beams of light that turned the monsters into ashes.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
As they covered my back, I rapidly clashed against the incoming dozens of them, wielding my mighty Scarlet in my hand, as I imbued her with the power of my Yggdragon Aura. This time, with only her blade and not a secondary weapon.
"{Holy Blazing Dragon Blade Arts): {Holy Dragon Great Sword Thunderous Dance}!"
I stepped forward, moving and leaping into midair, the spinning down as my aura shaped itself into countless explosive thunderous serpentine dragons and beams of light. CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
I slashed and crushed the monsters with great precision. They attempted to attack me with spear and sword techniques of their own, somehow having learned them, but I easily parried their incoming blows and defended with Sapphire, whom I summoned to my left arm, using her as the mighty shield she was.
"Begone!"
SLAAASH!
I swung my sword horizontally, unleashing a slashing wave of thunder and holy flames, erupting and consuming all the monsters within the vicinity, turning them all into ashes, a loud explosion echoed.
"That should take care of- Ah!"
Before I could feel relieved, something appeared from behind me at lightning speed, it was a miasmic beast, but of a much smaller form.
In fact, didn't it have a much more defined...
Human form?
It had barely any armor covering their body, clear crimson eyes, long black hair.
And the obvious appearance of a girl.
She resembled...
I think she looked like Felicia.
"You're...!"
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
Explosions of flames and frost suddenly erupted in front of my face, as I was thrown away before I could properly react. My skin was frozen and then burned, creating severe damage that made it peel out, leaving disastrous wounds on my arms.
"You even used Felicia's magic...?!"
Just what is happening here?
How is this even possible?
"!"
The clone rushed towards me, its surroundings freezing instantly as purple, frozen miasma reached me, attempting to trap me within, and it managed to do so.
FLAAASH!
I found myself completely jailed within a mass of purple crystalline ice, unable to fight back or escape, it grew all over me, trying to drain away all my mana.
"Hah... {Draconification}"
RUMBLE!
A surge of draconic blaze surged from my entire body, as I underwent full Draconification, my wounds regenerated instantly as they were covered by new flesh, skin, and scales.
Dragon horns, eyes, wings, and tails, and sharp claws, and above all, breath attack! "RAAAH!"
I opened my jaws, unleashing a gigantic breath attack and blowing up the entire ice prison, the clone of Felicia quickly stepped back, waving her hands as miasmic essence suddenly started to try to manipulate the fire coming from my mouth.
What the...?!
FLUOSH!
The flames turned back towards me, becoming black and purple in color, and shaping into countless, gluttonous, and demonic jaws.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
She's definitely using Felicia's Geomancy too!
Using my own element against me, huh?
"{Mana Disruption}!"
I waved my hand as I unleashed a disrupting wave of Mana, the entire attack exploded before it could reach me with a loud explosion, I rushed past the smoke using my wings, and reached the monster once more. It greeted me with a wall of flames and a wall of ice exploding right in front of me.
I put Saphire in front of my body, as her powers activated, a protective armor of magic covered my body, the explosive and deadly attacks couldn't deal proper damage, as I imbued Scarlet with the dangerous power of the Void.
"{Void Dragon Swordsmanship}: {Space-Tearing Void Fang}"
SLAAASH!
A wave of pure void slashed through the clone before it could conjure more magic, dividing it into two halves, the two halves instantly tried to recover and unify though, but the disrupting mana within their wounds stopped them from doing so.
"Did you thought I would let you regenerate? Explode, {Mana Destruction}"
"G-Gaah...! Ahh!"
The clone tried to speak words, words of hatred and rage, but before it could even say anything, it exploded, consumed by its own internal mana, which was destroyed.
BOOOM!
I sighed in relief, feeling slightly tired, I had to use several heavy hitters to eliminate that thing before it was to blow me up into pieces.
Master's magic is insanely strong, it only copied but a fragment of it, but that fragment alone
was enough to make it a bit tricky.
But at least there aren't many of them-
"Hahhh... Huh?!"
I might have spoken too soon, I found myself surrounded by three more of these weird ones. One resembled a half-demon girl with a long, sharp tail and a demonic spear, the second a small demon girl with blue skin and phantasmal aura, and the third one...
The third one was a tall man, with a giant, fiery sword.
You've gotta be kidding me.
"You even copied my dad?!"
"!"
The trio rushed towards me before I could even process what was happening. A giant hand of phantasmal miasmic power grasped me tightly, weakening my soul and making me feel
nauseous.
Fuck, that's Celica's phantom magic, I never received it head-on, it's so annoying!
But that wasn't all, the cursed spear of Celeste, or a replica of it, rushed down against me,
countless piercing blows easily broke through my defensive barriers.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
And then...
A gigantic sword of black flames moved down, swinging vertically.
SLAAASH!
Dad's overwhelming sword techniques.
BOOOM!
