Chapter 979 All Out War (3)

?979 All Out War (3)

"The first Rune Magician?" Qiel frowned. Even Laufey and the other two Devil Saints furrowed their eyebrows after that bold declaration.

They could clearly sense that Felicia was only a Spirit Master. Her strength was nowhere near that of the Superior Demon.

In the past, Noel and Anna had to work together to defeat a Superior Demon. And Anna was forced to use her True Spirit Body and almost died because of it. Noel\'s strength was also extraordinary for a Spirit Master.

Yet, they barely defeated it. To think that there would be someone bold enough that they could kill a Superior Demon with only her Spirit Master\'s strength…It was ridiculous.

However, what they didn\'t know was that Felicia was the first Rune Magician in history. While her strength was nowhere near that of the Superior Demon, the gap could be closed by the runes.

The only real gap between them was the amount of spiritual energy. A Superior Demon had more spiritual energy. Their utilization was much more powerful and contained more energy.

Even if the runes could withstand their attack, the consumption of her spiritual energy would be ridiculously high, let alone the fact that her energy reserve was far inferior to that of a Superior Demon.

If she claimed that she could kill several Peak Level Demons, they wouldn\'t really think much about it. However, Superior Demons were simply built differently.

"Let\'s test whether you have the strength to back up your words or not. Kill her!" Qiel ordered the cat to move forward. While she didn\'t believe that the Rune Magician was stronger than a Superior Demon, she still wanted to test the so-called Rune Magician. After all, it would also reflect their future potential.

The cat leaped into the air, trying to bring Felicia down.

Felicia flew back to avoid the cat before pointing her staff at it. "Rune Spear."

Multiple spears appeared around Felicia. She sent four of them directly toward the cat\'s eyes.

The cat gathered the spiritual energy around its palm to block these spears. Surprisingly, the spears were actually stronger than the cat originally thought.

*Meow?!* The cat wasn\'t injured, but it felt the impact and even got pushed back a little bit in mid-air.

"Momentum Rune."

Felicia didn\'t stop and summoned the second rune, charging the momentum of the remaining spears.

"!!!" The cat noticed the danger coming from the spear. Instead of the paw, the cat actually used the nails to strike back.

However, before launching the rune spears, Felicia added one more rune. "Multiplication Rune."

Six spears flew straight to the Multiplication Rune, and each of them split into eight spears.

*Meow?!* The cat was startled. The number was simply too many for it to stop. The cat waved its paw at lightning speed, striking as many spears as possible.

However, ten of them still passed through its defense.

"Impossible." Qiel widened her eyes in shock. The damage might not be fatal, but she couldn\'t say it wasn\'t much either. Two of the wounds were actually bleeding profusely.

Angered, the cat\'s tail shone brightly, blinding everything around it.

Even Felicia wasn\'t immune to it. She had to cover her eyes with her hands, and that was where the cat struck back.

The cat suddenly appeared in front of her, trying to catch her.

Sensing the cat\'s presence, Felicia activated the Spiritual Barrier Rune, creating a sphere that would protect her.

The demon cat slammed this sphere to the ground before pointing its tail toward her. It shot another beam.

*Boom!*

A large explosion engulfed the area. No demons actually dared to come close. Those who had to march toward the north gate ended up avoiding all the fights between Superior Demons and human grandmasters.

The dust was kicked up by the explosion, making them wonder if it was enough or not.

"Captain Felicia!" One of the flying squad members panicked. That blow was so strong that they didn\'t know if they could survive or not.

However, numerous light beams soon emerged from the cloud of dust, hitting the demon cat.

*Meo—* The cat was startled and hurriedly protected its body with spiritual energy. However, some of the light beams had hit each skin, penetrating his flesh a little bit.

A few spheres flew out of the dust cloud, this time heading to the cat legs.

The cat didn\'t understand it at first, but it still produced all the energy to block it. As expected, the spheres caused a chain of explosions that almost blasted the cat\'s legs.

However, the cat still sensed the danger of the spheres and protected its body, resulting in minimal damage. Unbeknownst to the cat, it was nothing but a distraction.

"Above you!" Qiel shouted as Faust sent another arrow to shut her up, only to be stopped by another wave of Peak Level Demons.

The cat raised its head and saw a giant ball of energy.

"Meteor Rune!"

The cat hurriedly struck the ball with its paw, but it was a tad too late in using its spiritual energy.

*Boom!*

The clash caused a massive shock wave that blew all the demons within a ten-meter radius away. At the same time, the shock wave knocked back the cat\'s paw and dislocated it.

In fact, the paw looked distorted as if everything inside that paw had been crushed.

Without a doubt, the cat wouldn\'t be able to use that left paw anymore.

At the same time, the shock wave also blew away the cloud of dust, showing Felicia\'s condition. Her clothes were covered in dirt and her body was filled with bruises. There was blood coming out of the corner of her mouth.

Yet the fire in her eyes was still blazing in full force. She looked at the cat while saying with a grin, "As expected of a Superior Demon, every single blow is so damn powerful."

If Felicia wanted it, she could pour all her energy into the Spiritual Barrier Rune to protect her body completely. But she knew very well the gap between her and the Superior Demon.

If she kept defending, her energy would run out faster than the Superior Demon. Hence, the only solution was to risk her own life. In other words, she actually lowered the output of the Spiritual Barrier Rune so that she could activate the attack type runes.

Felicia panted a few times, feeling a bit overwhelmed by the cat. But this was probably the most exciting time in her life.

In the past, she had been ridiculed for her spirit. While she had a large spiritual energy reserve and a high affinity for spiritual energy, it didn\'t change the fact that her ability wasn\'t suitable for combat.

Whenever she fought against someone on the same level, nine out of ten fights, she would lose.

But today was different. The one standing in front of her was not an opponent of the same level, but far more powerful than her.

She could actually do this much injury to the demon. While it didn\'t change the fact that her spiritual energy was draining so fast, she actually saw a path to victory.

\'I\'m going to change. With this power, I am not going to let anyone belittle me again. I will become the strongest Rune Magician and repay everything he has given to me.\' Felicia took a deep breath while pointing her staff at the cat. "Come. I will defeat you."

*Meow!* The cat let out a cry and rushed toward her. It couldn\'t use one of its paws anymore, so the cat could only close the distance with a single leap instead of running. As a result, there was a time when he was most vulnerable.

Before the cat landed on the ground, Felicia threw all the spheres that contained her unstable energy toward the ground where the cat was about to land. If the cat continued this way, it would definitely be blown away.

The cat surprised Felicia by creating a small platform underneath its paws. The cat actually stepped on the air.

"What?!" Felicia dropped her jaw as the spheres finally reached the ground.

*Boom!*

The explosion engulfed nothing as the cat skillfully looped around Felicia and struck her from behind.

"Harden Rune!"

Felicia didn\'t have enough time to activate the Intermediate Rune, so she had to resort to this basic rune to harden her body. However, the sweep was swift and powerful.

It launched her at least fifty meters from her original position, causing her body to roll multiple times on the ground.

The cat wasn\'t even done yet. It was about to deliver a finishing blow, only to find that this was yet another trick from Felicia.

Before the cat was able to move, it actually saw multiple spheres in front of it.

"!!!" The cat widened its eyes, not understanding how there were so many spheres right before its eyes. However, one thing explained it all. There was a translucent barrier that isolated these spheres. It was the same barrier originating from the Spiritual Barrier Rune.

Felicia smiled.

"Spiritual Barrier Rune release. Plus, Momentum Rune." Felicia tossed a small rock near her and the Momentum Rune launched it like a bullet, hitting the spheres.

*Meo—* The cat was shocked, trying to cover itself with spiritual energy. Unfortunately, it was too late.

*Boom!*

A massive explosion shook the battlefield.

Felicia panted a few times, her face was extremely pale. There were three key things in Felicia\'s action.

The first was tossing all the spheres. The moment she saw the cat stepping on the air, she actually cast the Spiritual Barrier Rune to protect the majority of her unstable spheres.

Because the Spiritual Barrier Rune had been used to protect the sphere, she had to use another rune, which was the Hardening Rune to protect her body. Still, the Superior Demon\'s attack was much more powerful than a basic rune. In the end, her body suffered a heavy injury from this attack.

But she actually threw herself toward her unstable spheres so that the impact would actually blow her in that direction. And she used the last bit of her strength to activate the Enhance Forward Rune, sending the spheres to the cat.

Last but not least, she only had to detonate the unstable sphere with a small impact, which was the stone she threw earlier.

And the result was a massive explosion. Those spheres contained almost all the spheres she had left, so even a Superior Demon wouldn\'t be able to survive.

The result was soon clear. The shadow cat lost a portion of its head. Half of its forehead was gone, the right eye disappeared, and the entire right cheek had been splattered on the soil.

The cat was still alive despite the damage, but if one took a closer look, there was a yellow flower on the cat.

The cat hurriedly leaped forward, trying to kill Felicia.

"She can\'t be left alive. Kill her!" Qiel shouted.

The two remaining Superior Demons that Qiel had saved until now finally made their appearance, flanking Felicia from both sides.

"Is it still impossible for me to defeat a Superior Demon?" Felicia gritted her teeth. She thought she could finally do it, so the frustration filled her heart.

However, Noel\'s gentle voice echoed in her ears as a small flame erupted on top of the cat, burning the flower. As a result, the cat fell to the ground and finally died. The flame was also about to engulf the cat and reduce it to nothing.

"My lord…" Felicia noticed a presence next to her. She felt too exhausted after using her all to fight the Superior Demon. Noel caught her body gently, smiling at her achievement. "Congratulations, my rune magician, for killing a Superior Demon. Leave the rest to me."

Felicia smiled, but ended up falling unconscious.

Noel actually came down to the battlefield. Even if the cat died, there were still two Superior Demons surrounding her.

"That\'s Noel…" Qiel gasped but hurriedly regained her composure as there was an even more important thing. "That\'s their lord and Supreme Commander. Surround him! Don\'t let him return to the city wall alive!"
