I Can Devour Monsters' SSS Talents
Chapter 380: Battle With The Calamity V[To completely destroy a Calamity, both stabilization points must be destroyed.]
[Anchor]
[Vessel]
[Evolution Quest: Kill a Calamity.]
[Calamity Destruction Condition: 1/2]
[The Calamity’s Anchor has been destroyed.]
[Warning! The Anchor has been destroyed and the Black Silence can remain in this world for a maximum of ten minutes, unless it finds a new Anchor.]
For several seconds, Seris did not move, the sounds of the battlefield became distant to her.
Anchor.
Vessel.
Cindar was the Anchor, so what was the other one? There was no need to think, her head slowly rose and her eyes fixed on Lian.
The same body, the same face, the same purple eyes, Lian was the Vessel, a truth that caused a strange pressure to form in her chest.
The feeling was so heavy that it silenced all her other feelings.
"So that’s how it is..." She said in a very low voice and tightened her fingers around the sword’s handle.
To kill the Calamity, both the Anchor and the Vessel had to be destroyed.
The Anchor was dead and now only one remained, Lian, she had already made her decision, so there was no place to back down.
And she looked at the last notification.
[Warning! The Anchor has been destroyed and the Black Silence can remain in this world for a maximum of ten minutes, unless it finds a new Anchor.]
She only had ten minutes, if she did not finish the Black Silence within these ten minutes, the Calamity would escape from them and would probably enter their world.
This was not something she could allow, they had seen that the Calamity could spread corruption and madness just by being present and moving around in the world.
On the other side, the Black Silence did not even look at Cindar’s corpse, not even once and as soon as the strands were cut, his strange anger also disappeared.
Lian’s face returned to that same absolute coldness.
As if the thing that had managed to truly anger the Calamity a few moments ago was no longer even worth a look.
Cindar was dead, the problem had been removed.
That was all.
But he knew that he did not have much time and would soon be expelled from this world because he no longer had an Anchor, the Black Silence turned back toward the chains.
And this indifference was Cindar’s final humiliation, the man who had sold his entire world for this creature, even his death was not important to it.
The four undead remained motionless for several seconds, the swordsman raised his sword again, the Root Controller placed his foot on the ground.
The Cindari mage gathered his mana and the other one also took a guard position, they were still following the Black Silence.
Seraphina’s panel flashed at that moment.
[Time remaining for the Seal Command: 02:41]
Rindo took a heavy breath.
"It isn’t over yet!" He shouted as a warning and raised his sword again.
At that moment, a terrible sound came from the direction of the Titan.
BOOOOOOM!
The chain that had cracked earlier finally collapsed.
The huge rings fell onto the ground and a wave of dust spread for hundreds of meters.
Now only two chains remained, the Titan moved more and its huge arm rose a few centimeters from the ground.
But even those few centimeters caused the rocks on it to collapse.
[Corrupted Titan Awakening: 89%]
[91%]
Seris turned toward Lian.
The Black Silence had placed his hand on one of the two remaining chains, the seals on the chain were already cracked.
Seris immediately moved.
"I won’t let you!" She shouted angrily and ran toward him.
She raised her sword, but before she could reach him—
Crack.
The first crack.
Crack.
The second.
Her sword moved toward Lian’s arm but the Black Silence only moved his wrist aside, the blade passed just a few centimeters from his skin.
His other hand was still on the chain, Seris struck a second time and this time the Calamity deflected the blade with his palm.
Without even looking at her.
"How dare you!!" Seris growled angrily and attacked again, this bastard was completely ignoring her, it was clear that he knew he might leave this world at any moment.
That was why he was using all his power to break the chains faster and finally take back the part of himself that was imprisoned.
BOOOOOOM!
The chain broke.
A wave of light and darkness came out from the broken point and the Young Pendragon slid several meters back.
[One chain remains.]
[Corrupted Titan Awakening: 94%]
Only the final chain remained, the only thing that was still keeping the Titan completely tied to the ground.
The Black Silence moved toward it and Seris immediately followed him, this time their battle was different.
The Calamity no longer wanted to fight her, he did not see her as a worthy enemy but only as an annoyance.
She activated [Moonless Severance].
A cutting line appeared on Lian’s shoulder and he raised his hand and changed the direction of the cutting path, he did not even stop his step.
Seris came close again.
[King’s Breaker.]
The attack went directly toward his knee joint and the Black Silence moved his lower leg a few centimeters aside, the sword passed beside it.
His hand landed on the girl’s shoulder and he applied huge pressure, that was all, but Seris felt all the bones in her shoulder being crushed and she was thrown several meters back.
The expression on her face changed badly and pain filled her body, she could no longer feel one of her arms from the shoulder.
Before falling, she stabbed the sword into the ground and used it to hold herself up.
The Calamity continued walking, he did not care about Seris at all, this behavior suppressed her even more than before, as if she was not even worth fighting.
She stood up.
[Thousand Petal Swordstorm.]
Dozens of cuts went toward Lian, he dodged some of them, some hit his body and several lines of blood appeared on his skin.
But he did not even turn his head and only continued toward the final chain.
Seris breathed out harshly and gripped her sword tighter.
The mission panel was still in the corner of her vision.
[Calamity Destruction Condition: 1/2]
[Remaining Target: Vessel.]
Every time she saw it, her eyes unconsciously moved to Lian’s back, if there was no other way, she had to kill him.
This was no longer a guess, the system had directly said it.
She ran and her sword fell onto Lian’s shoulder, the Black Silence pushed it away with a simple movement.
"Lian!" She shouted and her voice spread across the cemetery.
She attacked again.
"If even a little of you is still in there..." Seris said with anger mixed with a pressure she did not want to call fear, and struck again.
The Black Silence placed his hand on the final chain and there was no reaction from the real Lian.
Seris made a third attack.
"Now is the time to do something!" She almost growled and sent her blade toward his hand.
The Black Silence moved his wrist aside, his fingers returned to the chain.
There was no pause, no tremble, no sign and no hesitation.
The anger inside the Young Pendragon became stronger for a moment, from anger, from the helplessness she hated more than anything.
She almost never asked anyone for help, if she had a problem, she solved it herself, if there was an enemy, she killed it herself, if she was wounded, she stood up herself.
But now she raised her sword again.
"Help me, damn it!" She shouted with all her strength and for the first time her voice was not only anger, there was also something like a plea inside it.
She did not want help to kill Lian...she only wanted help to know if some part of Lian was still alive! If some part of him was still inside there.
But Lian gave no answer and the final chain started to glow, this time its light was different.
Hundreds-of-years-old runes carved into the metal lit up one after another.
For a moment, unclear shapes could even be seen around the chain.
The remains of those who had given their lives years ago and turned them into seals.
Seraphina suddenly vomited blood in the distance, one of the lines of light connected to the chains went out.
Then the second.
[Time remaining for the Seal Command: 00:38]
She almost fell onto both knees, Liana pulled herself toward her.
"Seraphina!" She shouted with worry and grabbed her arm.
"Let go of me!" Seraphina roughly pushed her hand away. She spoke between broken breaths and pushed both hands forward again.
The remaining light trembled.
"Not yet...it’s not over."
Rindo tried to make his way toward Seris and Lian.
But that Cindari fell in front of him.
The swordsman blocked Tavern’s path.
The Root Controller brought huge roots out of the ground, the four undead were now doing everything they could to stop anyone from reaching the Black Silence.
Darian raised his bow from a distance, seven-colored light gathered and the arrow was fired toward Lian.
The swordsman moved, his blade deflected the line of light and the explosion happened in the distance.
"Damn..." Darian said coldly and pulled the bowstring again.
Seris was the only one left beside Lian, she held the sword with both hands and put all her remaining mana into the blade.
The attack went directly toward Lian’s hand, although the Black Silence caught the sword without hesitation and grabbed the girl by the neck, he stared at her with eyes empty of all emotion.
"You are an annoyance." He raised his hand and slapped her very hard across the face.
The slap was so strong that the skin and flesh on the right side of the girl’s face were completely torn apart and covered in blood and she vomited blood.
Then he threw her away like trash and also held her sword in his hand, after looking at it, he crushed it and threw it away.
"Now it is time to end this"
