Earth's Greatest Magus

Chapter 1200: Helpless

”Kill them all.”

Those were the words the dark elf grand magus uttered before he flew into the sky and returned back to the elven warship.

Meanwhile, Emery was kneeling on the ground. Blood gushed out of the visible hole in his chest, as he gave his all to maintain his hazy consciousness, trying his best to stay alive from the grievous wound.

With just one spell from the mighty figure, his heart was pierced and his life hung by a thread.

If it wasnʼt for the existence of his innate skill [Undecaying Flesh], which immediately kicked off the moment it perceived the loss of its ownerʼs life, Emery would have died already.

But it was still not enough. Not with his heart crushed entirely.

Emery quickly found his surrounding area gradually blurring, while buzzing sounds swarmed his brain as his hearing was impaired.

Despite all this, he was still able to witness the sight of Stildar screaming miserably as he lost his fight, with the body of Magus Aruka lying nearby unmoving. The ground was dyed red as hundreds of humans were slaughtered by the endless horde of Orcs.

Then, he caught some noise nearby and saw the three dark elf magus approaching him, which was soon superseded by chuckle sounds.

”Look heʼs still trying…” said the Half Moon Magus Kasin in a mocking tone.

Not giving up yet, Emery gritted his teeth and painstakingly put his hand over the hole on his chest. A lukewarm green light appeared as he painfully forced himself to cast [Nature Blessing] upon the glaring wound.

However, before the spell even took effect, one of the magus cast a spell launching an attack too fast for the current Emery to see nor dodge. It landed viciously on him, causing him to let out a heart-wrenching groan as he lay flat on the ground, eyes staring at the sky.

Emeryʼs situation was rapidly deteriorating. He could vividly tell that life was drawing out of him as his consciousness began to wane, and this time there seemed to be nothing he could do to stop it.

At this moment, he, Emery, knew that the magus were preparing to ultimately finish him off.

Including the one who had defeated Stildar, a total of four dark elf magus surrounded Emery who was lying helplessly on the ground. But then, they suddenly became silent. Amidst his hazy consciousness, he could hear the changes in their voices as they spoke to each other.

”We got news that the Allianceʼs ships have arrived. Whatʼs more, itʼs the damned Imperium.”

Just like Emery, all pairs of eyes turned and looked toward the sky. There, he saw one of the two gigantic ships – the one the dark elf grand magus was on – flew up into the sky leaving the other one behind, probably to protect the stargate.

”Alright, while Lord Commander deals with those space knights, Lord Kasin, please finish him quickly,” said one of the dark elf magus.

Just as Kasin was about to finally kill Emery however, his attention was distracted by a female voice heard in the distance.

”STOP!!”

As if he had been doused with a bucket of ice water, Emery found his consciousness returning slightly thanks to that familiar voice. He painstakingly turned his head and thus saw the familiar figure who just came out of the facility – Klea.

”Emery?! Get up!”

The emotional burst she showed however only served to bring amusement to the group of magus.

”Hahaha, I know what these two are. A pair of lovers, arenʼt they? This is just getting better.”

Hearing his colleagueʼs words, Magus Kasinʼs eyes lit up as he said, ”Iʼve changed my mind. Letʼs kill her and the others first. I want him to personally watch them die for all the humiliation he did to me.”

Kleaʼs voice, coupled with the dark elfʼs savage words, made the dwindling consciousness come to a complete halt. At that moment, Emery could no longer feel the excruciating pain throughout his body; it was replaced by the faces of his friends and his dear memories with them.

Like fire in the wind, something within Emery awakened fiercely as he came to a realization.

He can not die here!

As if answering his newfound resolution, the dissipating life force within Emeryʼs body started to set aflame once more. It was also at this moment that he realized that the lifeform attached to his left arm had been trying to reach out to him, which he had unknowingly ignored when he lost his hope before. ṝΑɴǒᛒĘs

”Ku.. ku…”

The familiar sound only faintly sounded in his ears, but it was more than enough.

”..Yes, Twik,” said Emery inwardly. ”..We cannot stop now… not yet.”

Once again, Emery got up to his feet – a feat possible through his sheer will alone.

The group of magus who were about to go after Klea turned their heads when they felt movement from behind them. Surprised expressions were on their faces as they all stared at Emery whose legs were shaking violently.

”He can still stand…? with that kind of wound?”

Emery picked up his Lightsaber which he dropped when the grand magus attacked him. He then put every spirit energy he could muster to establish a channel between his nature core and the sword. Immediately after, an energy-based sword formed from the empty hilt.

Seeing Emeryʼs Lightsaber once again brimming with power, the dark elf Kasinʼs face quickly changed as his mind recalled the outcome of his mistake of letting Emery transform without consequence.

Fear soon got the best of him as he swiftly materialized his dark energy blade on his arm and dashed forward, carving another hole in his nemesisʼ chest.

Spllaatttt!!!

”EMERY!!”

The bloody scene of the magusʼs actions turned Klea hysterical. She was about to rush in but managed to forcefully stop her feet at the last second when she thought it through.

Despite feeling despair, there were three dark elf magus standing between her. Klea knew there wasnʼt much she could do if even Emery couldnʼt deal with it. The girl was trembling and tears fell on her cheek.

She gritted her teeth mumbling words over, ”Fight Emery! Fight!”

The half moon magus on the contrary was smiling in complete satisfaction.

”You really should stay down, human!” shouted Magus Kasin.

Blood dripped heavily onto the ground, as the dark elfʼs arm was still stuck in Emeryʼs body. However, just as Kasin was about to pull his hand back, his action was stopped as Emeryʼs rooted arm grabbed the magusʼ shoulder tightly.

He whispered.

”I… wish to fight”

To the shock of everyone watching, the Lightsaber in Emeryʼs hand suddenly broke apart. The small stone inside it – a divine light artifact – turned to dust as it became the price for his wish to be granted – this activated the hidden divine skill within him.

[Rebirth]

Within seconds all the wounds on Emeryʼs body, including his broken heart, were healed and his body returned to its original state as if nothing had happened. This astonishing scene caught Magus Kasin off guard.

”What!! What is happening?!” Instinctively knowing that he was in a bad situation, the magus quickly tried to break free from Emeryʼs tight grasp, but to no avail.

”No.. not yet” Emery mutters words as he regains his consciousness and strength.

Without a sword in hand, Emery unleashed his innate weapon to attack the magus. Replacing his destroyed weapon, three huge, sharp blades shot out from his right hand and swiftly pierced through his proud dark armor and deep into the magusʼ body.

Spllaaatt!!

”Arrrghhh!!!”

The halfmoon magus struggled to resist, desperately utilizing all his strength only to find it being drained away and The Half Moon Magus quickly realized the reason.

[Spirit Devour]

Terrified, the magus quickly screams ”Help me!!”

,m All the other magus quickly jumped in to help Kasin. One of them cast spells while the other two attacked with their weapons. However, even though his body was slashed and bombarded by spells, Emery still refused to let go of the magus.

Another scream of pain resounded in the air as Magus Kasin felt his body being drained of everything.

”Arrghh!! Let me go!! Kill him quickly!!”

Various attacks inflicted another round of wounds on Emeryʼs body. But again, instead of letting go, Emeryʼs form began to change. At the same time he tasted the dark spirit energy he siphoned from the magus, and let out the primal urge he had been keeping on for the last four weeks.

Dark fur quickly and densely grew, covering all over his entire body. His strength increased dramatically as his body turned into a full-grown beast. Rows of sharp teeth were seen when he opened his mouth.

”Arrghh!! Help me!” The magus lost all of his pride, screaming for his life.

It quickly shut out with the beast biting the magusʼ head full.

A cracking sound of metal was heard, before the beast forcefully severed the head from the neck and spewed it out like leftovers.

The Half Moon magus had died and the Fey beast was set on a rampage.

HOWLLLL
