Lith darted in the air, thanking his latest breakthrough for the second set of wings. Despite the fact that they were nigh-atrophied, they still gave him a bit more speed and enhanced his flight stability.
"I love when they play hard to get." Night chuckled as she lunged with her spear and emitted another black burst of energy.
Her laughter died when a light pillar struck her from above, making her plunge several meters underground. The light element carried so much heat that her black crystal armor turned red and enough kinetic energy to give her the impression of having been swatted by a giant.
Lith had yet to become a Light Master, but he had learned how to cast up to tier three offensive light magic spells and how to mix them with fire and Spirit magic.
"Are you a one-trick pony or what? Because unless your ramblings count as an attack, you’re boring me." Lith’s banter would have been much more effective if he didn’t run away.
Night laughed while regrowing her hair and repairing her skin.
"Do you want me to stop going easy on you? I’m fine with it." The Horseman unleashed her tier five spell, Ice Coffin.
Suddenly, a swarm of black crystal daggers filled the air, each one of them enveloped in a frost aura so cold that it started to snow. It wasn’t their razor-sharp edge nor the darkness energy they carried to make them lethal so much as their ability to stick to their target.
Dodging them all was impossible and once one of the daggers hit, the frost aura would fuse the ice crystal to its victim’s flesh. The cold would suck away the heat just like the darkness imbued within ate at the life force, leaving the target of the spell no way out.
Not even Lith’s bright blue Origin Flames could fully defend him from the swarm. For each dagger he vaporized, two more would form from both the steam and the water condensed due to the spell’s frost aura.
Ice Coffin needed but a few seconds to paint the Skinwalker armor black, turning Lith’s flight into freefall as life abandoned his frozen limbs.
"Thanks for the lesson, sucker. I’ll do my best to learn this spell." Lith said, leaving Night with her mouth agape.
She could see with Life Vision that, for no apparent reason, the ice daggers had left his body, allowing Lith to recover with Invigoration the strength he had lost. The Horseman focused on her spell, discovering that somehow the water element had been drained from Ice Coffin.
Without its key component, the spell had faded away.
’After Balkor, now even Lith can use Domination?’ Night couldn’t believe that both the husband she had chosen could be so alike.
’It doesn’t make sense. He has no streaks in his hair and even if he has a black colored eye, he failed to Dominate any of my attacks so far. Why should the blue eye be any different?’ She thought while unleashing her tier five spell, Stardust.
A wave of light magic infused with darkness flooded the sky, moving toward Lith’s house like a tsunami. That way, even if he dodged, the spell would still hit the defensive formations of the house and weaken them further.
Only when the light element disappeared and Stardust fell apart did Night remember why she had avoided using big spells until that moment.
"Oh, shit!" She said when she noticed that now five out of six points of Yurial’s Hexagram now burned with power, leaving only one missing.
He called upon his best tier five air spell, Mjolnir. A bolt of lightning as strong as a natural one descended from the skies and hit Lith’s house for no apparent reason. freewebnovel.cσ๓
