Chapter 369: Three Powers

Devon looked at the two of them. A frown etched on his face. It was like he wasn’t expecting this outcome.

"Kneel before me."

Xiao Yue’s words were like a siren’s song. It was nearly impossible to resist.

"Haha... Your words are poison."

Devon grinned and pointed his hand towards Xiao Yue, and she quickly unfurled her wings from her back and put them in front of her.

She was expecting him to do another one of his magic spells!

"There are three Pillars of Powers that you mortals have zero awareness about. Let me enlighten you about what those are."

Devon said.

’The three Pillars of Power.’

Fang Raon’s heart skipped a beat.

He felt nervous but also extremely curious about what they might be, and he put all his effort into focusing on Devon’s words.

It might be his only chance to learn the final Pillars of Powers!

"Void."

Devon said, his voice barely a whisper, and the air around them seemed to grow colder for just a split second.

A few seconds passed.

It didn’t seem like anything happened.

’Void? Why does it feel like nothing happened?’

Fang Raon frowned.

Xiao Yue was equally confused, and at that moment, she opened her mouth in an attempt to speak, but no words came out.

Her eyes widened in a shock.

She tried shouting out her words, but nothing came out, and she grabbed her throat in a panic as she had somehow turned mute.

’Yue can’t speak?’

Fang Raon looked shocked.

"Void can erase anything and everything. I erased your ability to speak. I don’t want to hear your poisonous words anymore."

Devon said coldly.

’That’s ridiculous! A power that lets you erase anything you want. There must be a limit to that ridiculous power!’

In that moment, Devon turned around to face Fang Raon, and he looked straight into his bright blue eyes.

"And I shall erase your sword."

He pointed his hand towards the Blackest Blade. His fingers were tightly pressed against each other.

"Void!"

Fang Raon reeled back his fist and punched forward, and his fist smashed through something invisible.

"MAXIMA!"

Void spell got completely destroyed by the Maxima fist, and his Blackest Blade still remained!

"Your Void power is not omniscient. Maxima can destroy anything. It can even destroy Void!"

Fang Raon shouted.

In an instant, he remembered Maxima and its ability to literally destroy everything, even that of Void.

Each Pillar of Power acted as a countermeasure against other Pillars of Power, preventing one power from becoming all-powerful.

"It looks like I’ve underestimated you."

Devon said coldly.

In that moment, he sensed something moving behind him, and as he turned around, he saw Xiao Yue heading his way!

Since she couldn’t speak, she had to use her magic and physical prowess instead, which she was more than fine with!

"Anchor!"

Devon shouted, and out of nowhere, Xiao Yue got stuck in air, unable to move, like she was frozen in time.

"Anchor, another Pillar of Power, allows the user to trap something in place. You cannot move as long as I want."

Devon said with a smirk.

In that moment, Fang Raon used Godspeed to run straight for the anchored Xiao Yue and grabbed her from her arm.

"Maxima!"

With Maxima, he ripped her out of the anchored state!

Xiao Yue looked at him with a grateful look and would’ve said, "thank you," if only she could speak.

However.

Unfortunately, Devon voided her ability to speak before she could use Maxima to stop the attack, and now it was too late to use it.

"Void’s effects shouldn’t last long, Yue. I am sure you will get your ability of speech back soon enough."

Fang Raon reassured her.

She nodded, but right now, she really didn’t care about whether she could speak or not, as the only thing on her mind was killing Devon.

"Bring it on."

Devon said coldly.

Without further ado, Xiao Yue and Fang Raon attacked him with all they got—her dark magic spells shot forward.

Fang Raon drew his Blackest Blade and swung it for his head!

"Forge!"

In that moment, Devon manifested a green shield and a green greatsword. Those weren’t part of his magic collection.

That wasn’t magic at all.

It was another Pillar of Power—Forge—an ability to construct temporary physical objects from his own energy!

With the green shield, he blocked Fang Raon’s sword, and with the green greatsword, he deflected Xiao Yue’s dark magic blast!

’Void, Anchor, and Forge—the last Pillars of Powers—they’re incredibly powerful, but I wonder why they’ve been only discovered by the Necro Region!’

Fang Raon and Xiao Yue continued attacking him, but Devon was skillful with the shield and greensword.

He moved like he weighed as much as a feather—fast and nimble—parrying and deflecting all the attacks thrown at him.

’Dark Magic: Blast!’

Xiao Yue pointed her hand towards Devon and launched a powerful burst of dark energy that was both cold and hot.

She was using the ’Mind Activation Word,’ which was a special technique of Mages allowing them to use their spells without saying it aloud.

It was a very high-level technique, and only a few Mages knew how to do it, and Xiao Yue was one of them!

Without that, since she was currently mute because of the Void, she wouldn’t be able to use her magic at all!

Devon blocked the dark magic blast with the shield, but it threatened to burst through, and his shield started to show some cracks!

"HARD SLASH!"

At that moment, Fang Raon slashed through the green greatsword, and the blade neared Devon’s head!

In that moment.

Devon snapped his fingers quickly, and the Blackest Blade just phased through him as if he were a ghost.

’It went straight through?!’

Fang Raon cried out in a surprise.

"Devon’s Desolation!"

Devon spread his arms wide, and a burst of green light shot out from his body and attacked Yue and Raon directly.

They shielded themselves as well as they could, but they were still thrown away, their bodies colliding against the rough stone wall.

"Ugh..."

Fang Raon dropped down to his knees, and he panted roughly, as if he was struggling to breathe.

’I used Maxima to cut through his Forged green greatsword, and I even used it against Devon, but the attack still went through.

’How did he do that? I thought Maxima could cut through anything.’

Fang Raon wondered.

"Ah..."

Xiao Yue let out a soft sound, and she looked relieved, as her voice finally came back as Void’s effects finally ended.

She was feeling very cold whenever Void was still in effect, but after she collided with the wall, her warmth returned back to her.

Therefore, she had a feeling that the Void finally ended.

"Void lasts for about two minutes!"

Xiao Yue shouted.

’Two minutes... I don’t think it is the Void that we need to be scared about. I need to know how he just phased through my Maxima attack.’

Fang Raon thought.

’He is currently on his skeleton transformation, so it has to do something with that. Is that skeleton stuff his legacy? It might be.

’Like with my legacy, I was able to use one of Special Attacks of Aurel just once. That must’ve been the same thing that Devon just did.

’I don’t think he can do that again.’

Fang Raon thought.

Devon was standing still. It felt like he was frozen in time. However, he was thinking very deeply about his next move.

In that moment, he thought about something.

"Void!"

Out of nowhere, he pointed his hand towards Fang Raon and used his Void immediately against him!

"Maxima!"

Fang Raon punched through the spell with his eyes shaking, and he had a hunch about what Devon attempted to do.

’I think he is trying to erase my ability to use Maxima.’

In a split second before Devon launched his attack, he quickly ’Read’ Devon’s intentions, even though he was trying to hide them.

Fang Raon was lucky that his level of Read was higher than Devon’s!

He was able to Read that Devon was trying to erase his Maxima, so he was completely under his mercy.

FLAP~! FLAP~! FLAP~!

At that moment, the wings flapped as Xiao Yue burst forward and launched a straightforward kicking attack at Devon.

"Magic Circle!"

Devon put his hand in the way, and a green magic circle appeared before the kick, but this wasn’t a normal kick.

"Maxima!"

Xiao Yue kicked through the magic circle and hit Devon directly in his skeleton ribcage and sent him flying back!

Devon flipped in the air and landed back on his feet, but the attack worked, and some of his skeleton features started to disappear.

A little bit of hair started to grow on his skull!

Seeing that, Xiao Yue and Fang Raon attacked right away, and Devon summoned his green magic circles and began to defend himself against the incoming assault.

Devon’s green magic circles moved like discs through the air, cutting through the air particles and blocking all the attacks thrown at him.

"Whoo... Huff... Huff..."

In that moment, Devon started panting quite heavily as he tried to defend against the onslaught of his two enemies.

His mana was running out.

’Finally!’

Fang Raon cried out.

This was the moment that they had been waiting for. It was all for his moment. They’ve been trying to exhaust his mana reserves!

In that moment, Yue’s punch got through Devon’s defenses and landed straight into his nose with a bone-crunching impact!

"THIS IS FOR MY SISTER!"

Devon was sent flying back, and he crashed into a wall, and the dust cloud swept through the cave.

The dust cloud slowly settled, and on the wall, Devon lay motionlessly—he was back as his human self.
