Origin Of Evil 48 Final Battle 2

And the Captain couldn't lose her, otherwise it would be one level 2 Knights against two, or three if Dorian is counted.

Marcus reached her first, and he swung his great sword at her. The sword stopped half a meter from Lucie, impacting against a blue barrier. The barrier stopped the strike, but was shattered in return.

Then, Charles arrived. The Captain was about to come too, but before he moved he was surprised by what happened. Charles, instead of attacking Lucie, attacked his own ally, Marcus.

Charles' sword hit Marcus' armor, piercing it and cutting into his flesh. Thankfully, Marcus was a great warrior and was able to dodge a little, resulting in only a little superficial cut.

Still, he looked at Charles with red eyes and bellowed "Die, traitor!" Marcus began attacking Charles, while trying to get closer to Lucie, but Lucie was attacking too so it became impossible for Marcus to approach her.

However, Marcus was stronger than both of them, he had a greater defense, greater strength, greater regeneration and his speed wasn't far lacking. So for the moment, no winner could be seen from their fight.

The Captain didn't go to help Lucie seeing Charles was on their side, and instead attacked Dorian, who was again fighting with a Stinger, about to kill him.

The Captain pushed the Stinger away from Dorian's sword trajectory, saving his life, and attacked Dorian himself. Dorian stepped to the right, evading the stab, and kicked at the Captain's legs.

The Captain was able to jump to dodge it, but now that he was in mid air he couldn't dodge anymore. Dorian slashed his sword at him, but another Stinger attacked him, forcing him to spin around to block.

As he spun, Dorian was able to take a quick look at his surroundings. All the remaining Stingers seemed to have reached a consensus, and they were all rus.h.i.+ng at him to kill him.

So, Dorian decided to stop holding back, and go at full power. Well, excluding his Life Essence and Bloodline Skills that is.

In less than a second, Dorian was surrounded by the 7 remaining Stingers, including the one he forced to flee earlier, and also their Captain.

Dorian stood straight like an arrow, his sword held vertically in front of his body, almost touching his nose, and he closed his eyes.

For such a fight, with so many enemies, fighting using only his sight was impossible, he needed to use all his senses. So when he closed his eyes, he used his other enhanced senses to pick up on all his enemies positions and movements.

The Stingers were looking at him, as if they were waiting for him to move. After a moment though, their patience grew weary and they attacked.

Of course, they were part of the same team and were used to work with each other, so they didn't attack one by one. Still, not all of them could attack at the same time, there wasn't enough place.

As the different weapons approached him, Dorian finally opened his eyes and slashed out with his sword, parrying two attacks and using the impact to s.h.i.+ft his body to the side, dodging another two attacks.

He wasn't able to attack though, because as soon as he dodged the earlier attacks the four others attacked him too.

Dorian was thus forced to block them too, unless he wanted his body to turn into a sieve. The eight enemies started all attacking, one after the other, and formed a never ending a.s.sault, always having at least one person attack.

Dorian was defending himself, but had no opportunity to attack. For now, his defense hadn't been breached, but he couldn't keep up with this, he would undoubtedly make a mistake at some point.

That's why Dorian created a mistake on purpose, allowing a sword to hit his side, cutting into it. In exchange, Dorian was finally able to attack.

And now that he didn't hold back anymore, one attack was way more than enough to kill a Stinger. So one of them suddenly got beheaded. Then, the situation returned to what it was, Dorian defending and the Stingers attacking, just that Dorian was now injured and the Stingers one less.

After a moment, Dorian's sword couldn't take on the a.s.sault anymore and broke. The Stingers didn't expect what happened next though. The shards of the broken weapon flew out like thrown daggers, and hit every one of them, with the Captain being the only one able to dodge them.

That was barely enough to injure them, and wouldn't affect their performance, but they were stunned. So they didn't see their fallen comrade's sword fly by, decapitating yet another Stinger before landing into Dorian's hand.

Dorian didn't get the time to look at the sword's stats, he was only able to see that it shone with a green glow.

As they continued fighting, the Stingers thought they would get the advantage because Dorian's injury would worsen, but they were stunned to see that instead of aggravating, his injury was healing instead.

The same frustration applied to Charles and Lucie, who despite attacking Marcus again and again, injuring him, his injuries would heal themselves even quicker than Dorian.

Marcus swung his sword, pus.h.i.+ng Charles back and again tried to rush Lucie, but a spell was launched from her staff. Marcus expertly moved his sword in front of him, blocking the spell. Although he avoided getting injured, he was pushed back by a few meters, his silver boots marking the ground.

Charles tried to attack Marcus, but again his sword wasn't able to get past his armor. Only when he infused his sword with Life Essence was he able to pierce through it, but he didn't have an infinite amount of it.

The only places Marcus' armor didn't cover were his neck, which he protected the most, and the joints which were a little too small to hit, even with Charles' ability with the sword.

Marcus ram his shoulder into Marcus, pus.h.i.+ng him back, and instead of attacking Lucie he attacked Charles instead. Lucie still launched one of her spells at him, but Marcus was able to injure Charles' arm.

Thankfully for the couple, it wasn't his strong arm but the other, so he was still able to fight.

Back to Dorian, with every second his abilities were getting stronger. Although he didn't receive notifications for his abilities' power up, he received two notifications telling him he had both his Strength and Agility pure attributes reach 20.

For his Strength, it was of 18 before so two abilities must have leveled up. Swordsmans.h.i.+p and Hand to Hand Combat. And he could clearly feel it, as the difficulty suddenly decreased, and the threat from the Stingers reduced a lot.

As for his Agility, it was obviously his Movement Mastery that got enhanced, as he felt it also became easier to dodge the attacks.

Although he didn't have the time to check the sub skills and a.s.sign them, the power up in attributes and abilities was enough to make Dorian's advantage even bigger.

The rest of the Stingers quickly died, and after a moment only the Captain and the second strongest Stinger remained.

After blocking one of the Captain's strikes, Dorian moved toward the Stinger and stabbed his sword in his chest. The Stinger didn't even defend, and instead tried to grab Dorian's sword. He didn't just use his muscles, he used all of his Life Energy, as well as his own life, to reinforce his hands and his stomach, making them much harder.

This killed him on the spot, but his grip on Dorian's sword had become good enough to stop him long enough for the Captain's sword to hit Dorian. So, Dorian was unable to pull back his sword and was forced to use his metal bracer to stop the dagger.

At the other end of the battlefield, Lucie saw the situation, and saw an opportunity. She moved her staff from Marcus and instead pointed it towards the group, and poured all the mana she could muster in an instant, overcharging the spell as it flew toward the three struggling figures.

They barely had the time to see it before it hit them.
