Chapter 284 Will of the Spirit

Upon seeing the power behind Aeliana's swords of light, Elvira's expression immediately turned grave.

She could understand Aeliana's Dryad Transformation being powerful, but she didn't expect her Sword of Light to be just as powerful as well.

They were both at the same level of power that a Mid-stage High Witch could exert!

If she didn't have years of accumulated knowledge and the advantage of possessing more elemental attributes than Aeliana, she might really have a chance of losing!

That said, Aeliana was also burning up her mana reserve by using her Sword of Light on a grand scale just to keep the cloud of purple spores from reaching her.

Nevertheless, she couldn't stop until her sword lights destroyed every single purple spore in front of her.

"Hmph!" Elvira snorted.

A column of black water rose into the air with a quick stomp, blocking all the sword lights from reaching her body.

The water absorbed the light while the darkness negated it, breaking down the sword lights into nothing.

Shortly after every purple spore was destroyed, Aeliana ended her barrage of sword lights. In the same breath, the column of black water also dropped to the ground, returning to the earth.

"I've underestimated you. With the quality of your magic circles, you are indeed only a Peak-stage Senior Witch. But the power of your Specialized Magic has far exceeded that level," Elvira commented before declaring resolutely, "As such, I will view you as fellow Mid-stage High Witch and use every ounce of my power to destroy you!"

"Less nonsense. Actions speak louder than words," Aeliana coolly stated, appearing more confident.

She knew she had grown much stronger despite still being a Peak-stage Senior Witch. Even so, she didn't realize the extent of her power until she fought seriously.

Nevertheless, Elvira's expression became colder after hearing Aeliana's words.

She didn't waste another breath and used a strong step to lunge toward Aeliana, taking the initiative to close the distance between them.

Elvira wanted to bring their fight to close quarters where she could also take advantage of her strong body.

However, Aeliana definitely knew where her disadvantages lay.







She quickly drew her distance by running alongside the ring's wall and fired sword lights at Elvira to hinder her advances.



Meanwhile, outside the battle ring, the dragon lord's expression had become grim after Elvira revealed her Dryad Transformation.

Countless True Dragons watching outside the battle ring also frowned with doubts.

"Such wickedness… To think this black witch had committed such a heinous and sacrilegious act against the spirits…! She does not deserve to live!" Lord Narvim grumbled with outrage.

Vaan silently studied the dragon lord's expression on the side and suspected he could see the Wood Spirit suffering inside Elvira's body.

'Is the Wood Spirit still alive?' Vaan wondered with surprise.

Nevertheless, as he watched the dragon lord, he felt the dragon lord wanted to fly into the battle ring immediately and execute the Fallen Witch himself on the spot.

"I thought Your Excellency doesn't discriminate against the Fallen Witches?" Vaan mentioned with a slight smile.

"Naturally, this Lord doesn't." Lord Narvim reined in his rage and said with a frown, "Black witches or not, they are still humans, even if they have become a little different. After all, there are all sorts of circumstances that causes witches to undergo inversion."

"Thus, black witches aren't evil until they wilfully commit evil," Lord Narvim stated before glaring at Elvira from a distance dangerously. "Like this one. This black witch has gone too!"

"Then, do you plan to interfere in their duel, Your Excellency?" Vaan casually asked.

Once Lord Narvim heard that, he shook his head with a helpless sigh.

"Unfortunately, I won't. I am a dragon of my word. I will not interfere in the dispute between these two witches," Lord Narvim stated.

"I see," Vaan casually uttered before glancing back at the battle in the ring.

Originally, the dragon lord wanted to chat with him about other things.

But after Elvira revealed her Dryad Powers, the dragon lord's mind was completely occupied by the Wood Spirit's suffering, leaving no room for other thoughts.



Boom, boom, boom!







The ground shattered under Elvira's deflected attacks as she continued to chase Aeliana and close their distance.

But while she was using everything to enter close quarters, Aeliana was also using everything to keep her away.

Their prolonged game of cat and mouse made Elvira impatient and furious. So much effort expended, yet so little gain.

At the same time, Aeliana's smug look further fueled her infuriation as her blood boiled.

Ba-dump!

Perhaps due to her old age, Elvira's heart couldn't handle the excitement and stimulation; it suddenly made a much weaker beat, causing her face to turn pale.

Elvira's pursuit abruptly ended as she fell to her knees and broke into cold sweats.

Ba-dump!

"Arghhh! How dare you choose this time to retaliate! No, how are you even alive?! You should be dead!" Elvira barked while clutching her heart area in pain.

The prolonged battle against Aeliana had seemingly weakened Elvira to a point where the Wood Spirit inside her could try to break free from her body.

Nevertheless, it was only the Wood Spirit's lingering will.

Aeliana was surprised by the sudden situation at first. But after a moment, she immediately revealed a delighted smile.

"Well, well, well… What do we have here? After all that boasting, it turns out this is where the true difference in our abilities lies. Mine are completely my own, whereas yours were only borrowed," Aeliana gloated before coolly stating, "This is the end."

She summoned a powerful sword of light with her remaining mana and also infused her wood-attribute mana into it with the intent to finish Elvira off.

But just as she sent the sword of light on its way, Elvira howled hysterically and overcame her immobility before leaping out of the way.

Although she managed to suppress the Wood Spirit's lingering will and preserved her life in the nick of time, she still lost her right arm in the process.

"I won't be croaking just yet!" Elvira spat with bloodshot eyes.

"Tch!" Aeliana clicked her tongue with a frosty gaze before uttering coldly, "A last-ditch effort, huh? No matter. I will take my time torturing you before I kill you."

But just as Aeliana raised her hand to gather her mana and summon another sword of light, it dissipated before she wobbled and fell onto one of her knees.

"Out of mana, huh?" Elvira uttered with a pleasant surprise before laughing hysterically, "Hahahaha!"
