The rising tension of the battle continued, as Julia and her maids were being attacked by dozens of ck-coated vampiric people holding lethal weapons. An assassin leaped out of the skeletons attacks and immediately pounced towards Faerie. The half-elf maid didn’t simply stood still, holding the two magic daggers in her hands, she shed against the assassin, who seemed stronger than the majority.
CLASH!
“Magic-imbued daggers, huh?” Wondered the Assassin, as a cocky smile could be clearly seen beneath the ck clothing covering his face.
“I won’t let you harm mydy. You’ll have to step over my corpse!” Faerie roared back, as the assassin smirked even more, he swung therge de he was holding and quickly attempted to overwhelm the half-elf with his greater and superhuman strength.
“Hah! You’re clearly delusional if you think you can even overpower a vampire such as me! We are superior in literally everythingpared to other races, even more over a half-elf!” Laughed the assassin, swinging his long and sharp de which unleashed an aura of red blood. This was the vampire’s special ability, Blood Aura, a Skill that a few could develop after growing strong enough and drinking tons of high-quality blood. It helped them enhance their bodies and weapons, and it grew stronger the more blood they consumed.
CLASH! CLASH!
His sword shed against Faerie’s daggers as she struggled to keep herposure, she was being pushed back with each attack, and the farther she flew from Julia, the more danger herdy would be go through. Faerie gritted her teeth, looking at theughing Vampire. For some reason he was not using any more borated magic. Could these people not be as strong or simply had too much of a specialization? Even the strongest physical warriors had some magic that could surprise their foes, but these assassin felt as if they were fabricated to specialized in fast movements and precise swings of their lethal weapons imbued with Blood Aura.
Faerie analyzed the vampire’s movements while being overwhelmed, his speed was phenomenal and she could barely keep up with him, she analyzed each of his movements and then quickly decided to use her own magic. Indeed, even the weakest of half-elves inherited a strong magical affinity. Elves were well known for being one of the strongest magical races in the world, even a half-elf child would inherit a good amount of power to be catalogued as a genius of magic in the human continent as long as they trained it.
Faerie’s body began to unleash an aura of green color… surprising the vampire for a split of a second, he thought she was using the Aura of Nature, as most elves were well known for such a magic element, fully expecting her to unleash some sort of vine attack or something rted with nts, the vampire stepped back a few steps, as he charged arge quantity of Blood Mana into his hands, unleashing a sh attack using the sharp and long ck nails he had.
“Your Nature Magic won’t do a thing against this!”
SLAAASH!
BOOM!
The powerful shing attack in a cross shape reached Faerie in an instant, shing against her and unleashing an explosion of red smoke, the floor below her broke and so did the walls and the window. The vampire celebrated as he fully expected her to be dead by now, she wasn’t fast enough to evade that.
“If you see an elf, is the first thing you assume is that we wield nature magic?”
The voice of Faerie whispered behind the vampire as he felt like a chill rand own his spine. Faerie had moved at an incredible speed, evading his attack, and using the red smoke as a distraction to reach his back before the vampire could realize it!
“E-Eh? W-Wind Element?!”
Faerie’s only element was wind, and sheplemented it through Wind Aura, a special Skill she learned over years of magic practice, it enhanced her speed over anything else, but it cost too much Mana. Therefore, she had to use it smartly, often using it to grant her short bursts of speed to surprise unsuspecting foes.
“Cutting Winds…!”
Faerie didn’t even let the vampire react in time, her daggers were not mere magical items, as they were crafted especially for her magic and fighting style. Two emerald jewels glowed bright green within the daggers as they absorbed Faerie’s Wind Aura and her mana, the two daggers unleashed enormous spiraling bursts of winds in that very moment, which Faerie used to cut him down from behind!
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
“T-This is… impossible! How fast… are you?!”
Her dagger movements were precise and lethal, the vampire couldn’t help but attempt to defend by using his Blood Aura and a Blood Barrier using Blood Magic, but both methods were easily overpowered and destroyed by the burst of spiraling winds, as his body suffered deep slices all over, his blood sttering over the floor! Faerie knew he could regenerateter, so she swiftly pierced the vampire’s neck with her dagger and sliced it off!
SLAAASH!
Beheaded, the vampire fell off the broken window, as Faerie grabbed the cursed weapon he was holding and quickly threw it into the head of a second assassin using Stealth and Camouge right behind her, ying him as well. Blood covered her entire maid outfit as she had no time to rest but felt slightly relieved she took down that one bastard and the random assassin trying to take advantage of her after having in hisrade.
Meanwhile, an assassin immediately attempted to leap towards Julia while Darkbound was busy fighting two of them at once with his phantasmal swords. The assassin leaped towards her as she greeted him with her Rapier Technique!
“Ten Roses!”
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH…!
Julia unleashed ten consecutive attacks using her Rapier by infusing it with Mana, the Skill was named [Ten Roses] and held the power to unleash ten consecutive attacks at superhuman levels of speed and strength, surpassing her own power! The incredible technique hit the vampire in midair, leaving his body with many wounds!
