BXBX NOVEL Chapter 257 Agatha's Might
As Claire\'s body was slowly freezing in ice, Estella pulled the string along with the energy arrow between her fingertips. She let out a smirk, "since you are a tenth-grade student and also from a great background, you probably had heard about the advanced attributes which actually form because of two basic attributes. What you are now seeing the example of it."
Claire frowned upon listening to her explanation. She remembered the two arrows Estella shoot at the sky, a while ago. "Wind and Water?"
Claire naturally had the knowledge of the advanced attributes. Even a grade-5 student in the academy knows of it as it was in the syllabus. However, she was sure that one cannot merge two attributes and create an advanced attribute directly. They should have awakened an Arcana spirit with the advanced attribute in the first place, then, those special talented Arcana masters will be able to use the two attributes with ease just like the twin and set Arcana users.
But, Estella owns the Leviathan, a water attribute beast. If Estella could use the wind attribute, then, she must be also a twin Arcana user or a very rare set Arcana user. If such the case, then, either her second Arcana spirit must be of wind attribute or the giant seal serpent must be a dual attribute one. Not only Claire but several higher realm experts also thought the same.
"Is her second Arcana spirit, an Ice Attribute type just like my skeletal snow wolf?" Azzy wondered while staring at the sky.
It was then he felt the raindrops on him. They were heavy but still, normal. "Strange. Chronos, why are those raindrops changed into icicles, up there but not here?" Having no idea, Azzy sought the help of Reaper.
"She does have a second attribute as you think but it was just a wind attribute beast. But, this has nothing to do with it. Instead, this was the power of the little girl she was born with just like how you were born with the sight of seeing someone\'s death." The Reaper answered him.
"Eh? She can create ice?" Azzy felt amazed to see such a powerful unique passive skill. But then, the Reaper clarified his statement, "In a way, she can, but not out of anything. She would need external matter for that. Her unique ability is something else, it is the temperature. She can control it within some limits."
"She can control the temperature?" Seriously?" Azzy felt this was even more overpowered than the last one. He took a glimpse at her once again and mumbled to himself, "no wonder she was confident of herself."
Meanwhile, Claire used a bit of her soul energy and pushed away all the ice particles, freeing herself before another set of icicles fell on her body and started freezing once again, making her body stiff. This time, she felt not only the temperature in the surroundings became lower but the formation of ice is even faster. Thankfully, for some reason, her wings are unaffected.
"It\'s no use, Claire." Estella let out a smirk and released the arrow with wind attribute. It shot towards her very swiftly. Because her body is a little bit numb, Claire wasn\'t confident in dodging the attack. So, she controlled one of her golden wings and turn towards the other side.
The arrow hit the wing and pierced it, slightly grazing Claire\'s shoulder before it stopped and disappeared. As a result, a few feathers were destroyed and a hole can be seen inside the wing.
Claire sighed in relief and pushed the ice once again to become free only to get frozen once again.
"Damn it." Estella gritted her teeth in frustration as this attack was also failed. After talking big, as she fails to deliver the results followed by it, Estella was naturally angered.
"Okay, let\'s see, how you will be saved, this time." As these small things were nothing to her opponent, she decided to go big. <strong>"Levi, soul skill: Stairway to Hell."</strong>
As Leviathan\'s eyes glowed, in an instant, Claire was literally stunned like a statue and suddenly started to fall down from the sky, losing her consciousness.
Thinking that she was defeated, Azzy dashed forward to catch her but within just a couple of seconds, Claire stopped falling and appeared to be back to her consciousness quickly, except that her eyes were glowing in golden color. She glared at the beast and the one on top of it. Estella seemed surprised by the turn of events. Her eyes widened as she spoke to herself, "impossible. How did she escape the illusion, so quickly?"
"It was her Arcana." A reply came into her head from the Leviathan. "This was a bad move."
It was then Estella realized she made an extremely bad move but at the same time, she finally confirmed that Claire\'s Arcana was indeed stronger than hers. Only a mutated platinum grade and higher grade Arcana spirits will be unaffected by the skill. Even normal platinum grade beasts need a lot of time to resist.
"I usually don\'t want to possess her but the situation is demanding it."
Agatha who possessed Claire flew higher. Upon reaching the eye level of the Leviathan, the icicles once again started to hit her and tried to freeze her. However, unlike Claire, she looked confident. The soul energy gushed out of the body to form a golden bubble around her, blocking all the icicles. Since it was made purely out of energy, they weren\'t able to affect the bubble.
Pointing the sword at her, Agatha snorted, "little girl, you still have a long way to go."
<strong>"Soul skill: Descent of the Heavenly Guardian."</strong>
Upon unleashing her strongest skill, the sword disappeared from her hands and her aura thickened a lot. All of her soul energy was recovered and the hole in the golden wings was also repaired by itself.
Estella drew her bow once again while the Leviathan charged forward towards the opponent.
Agatha raised her hand. All of her soul power was consumed and a golden energy spear appeared above her head. Her soul power was instantly recovered to full while she threw a golden spear at the serpent.
Estella shot the cyan-colored energy arrow at the incoming attack and nullified it, only to see another one is on its way. She hurriedly conjured another arrow and shoots it, only to see another one is on the way, which was blocked by Leviathan by blasting huge volumes of water at it along with the opponent.
Agatha flapped her wings and dodged it and counterattacked with creating a golden rope this time.
Upon creating the golden rope, she threw it towards Estella. The latter tried to destroy it with an energy arrow but the rope was flexible and its other end was also in the hands of Agatha.
She made the rope dodge the arrow and took the attack head-on instead. With the instant recovery, the wound on her chest was recovered immediately while the golden rope successfully caught Estella\'s leg.
As soon as she was caught, Agatha threw her away lightly to separate the beast and its host.
However, instead of trying to help out Estella who was about to crash onto the ground from nearly seven hundred feet high, Leviathan went after the enemy flying before it.
Agatha shook her head with a sigh, "after being downgraded to platinum grade, you lost your intelligence."
Leviathan naturally didn\'t understand her words and wasn\'t in the mood to think about it either.
Upon reaching the enemy, it opened its mouth and tried to swallow her. And those who enter its stomach had their soul energy completely sucked away while their body will be burnt by the acids.
But, it didn\'t even get such an opportunity. This time, Agatha stretched her arms and created dozens of golden chains. The chains from the left hand closed its mouth and tightly captured it. Meanwhile, the chains from the right hand were stretched for hundred meters and captured the falling Estella before she summoned her second Arcana spirit to save herself.
"Now, it\'s time to end this battle."
Her eyes glowed even brighter as she let all of the divine energy invade Leviathan\'s body while at the same time, pulling up Estella with all her strength to swing at the other side with all her might.
"Kyaa..." Estella couldn\'t help but let out a high-pitched scream as her bow fell from her hands and she was moving against her will at a high speed.
Before she reached the peak height of seven hundred feet, she hurriedly used energy eruption and freed herself, and started to free fall from five hundred feet this time.
"Come out, Garuda." She screamed at top of her lungs.
