Chapter 1022 The Last Night
The death knight lunged forward with a burst of necrotic black flames, swinging his sword at Arad's neck faster than anyone could see. Arad lifted his forearm and blocked the death knight's strike without moving a single step, shocking everyone. The sheer impact of the hit produced a large enough blast that it sent half of Balon's men flying.
None could believe their eyes, but they weren't the only ones surprised, even Arad himself lifted an eyebrow. DRIP! A thin stream of red blood trailed down his elbow, dripping on the ground and boiling like acid.
^Even if I'm not using any defensive magic…he still cut me?^ The death knight's sword had slashed through Arad's scales but stopped at his iron bones. A death knight is an S-class undead monster created from the corpses of warriors, this man before him must've been a powerful fight with unmatched skills.
The moment the necromancer saw that Arad stopped the death knight's full power swing he turned to run away. "Impossible! It can't be! Ten thousand souls were sacrificed to empower that death knight, who is that thing."
The death knight tried to pull his sword out of Arad's arm, but it was stuck there. The dense muscles of Arad's forearm clenched tight that even if a hundred men tried, they'd never pull the sword out of his wound.
When Arad twisted his arm, the blade snapped like a piece of wood. Then, Arad's wound rapidly healed, ejecting the blade at high speed, which flew at the necromancer and stabbed him on the back of the head, ripping right through the skull like a watermelon.
With the necromancer dead, Arad lifted his hand and flashed a wave of holy magic all over the area, putting the undead to rest. "Great knight, rest in peace alongside your men."
"Arad! That's you?" Balon approached Arad, unable to believe his eyes.
"Of course, I've got my powers back. Since I'll be leaving tomorrow I came to get a drink with you and those two…" Arad pointed with his thumb at Arthur and Jack, but his eyes quickly turned toward the burned undead. They all perished so everyone should be able to relax now.
