Omega Summoner

Chapter 116: Siege Defense Hard Mode

[You have been dealt with 3,348 magic damage. The damage has been doubled due to you being in Soul Form. You have received 6,696 magic damage.]

[You have died.]

[You have chosen to be revived. You will revive in three seconds.]

[Due to the corrupted mana that hit you, you can only revive with half health.]

[The skill Finger of Undeath has corrupted your life force. You also gain the weakened status upon your revival.]

”Tch. This must be the racial characteristic thing that Ascalor mentioned to me a while ago.” Adrian scoffed.

=======

A while ago when Adrian was being taught the two epic skills…..

”Ahh! This is impossible! I canʼt even pull one asteroid to myself!” Adrian grumbled.

”It seems you have only fired spells at their behest and not even maximized your true potential as a Daemos.” Ascalor teased.

”What do you mean by maximize the true potential of a Daemos?” Adrian was hurt by the words Ascalor said but it also intrigued him greatly.

”Tell me, what is magic?” Ascalor asked.

”Magic is a way to manipulate the energy around you as a way to create a particular phenomenon. It could either become a ball of fire or just a breeze depending on the amount of magical power used.” Adrian answered with a bit of confidence.

”That is a textbook answer. It seems that your knowledge when you were human is still engraved in your mind.” Ascalor stated which greatly surprised Adrian.

”How did you know?” Adrian asked.

”Did you really think that the elders did not know? Even the gods cannot freely alter the memories of those of Arch Demons especially if they are nearing the Noblesse stage.” Ascalor said while one of his eyes was closed.

Adrian was silent due to what Ascalor said but then the latter started speaking to ease the formerʼs worry.

”Do not fret because you are one of us now and you must start thinking like one.” Ascalor said while smiling.

Adrian felt a warm feeling inside as he felt that he was being consoled by someone like a grandfather. Ascalor suddenly got a feeling in his spine and then said, ”I feel like I am being either looked down upon or looked up to.”

”So what is this about maximizing my potential?” Adrian said while his eyes glowed as he had renewed his passion.

”Think of origin magic as clay and we the Daemos are like potters. We can mold the magic freely as long as our skill level befits it.” Ascalor said while he held his head up high as he was proud to be a Daemos.

”So how do you do it?” Adrian said as Ascalor was being vague again.

A vain popped in Ascalorʼs head but he quickly calmed down as he remembered that it was this bratʼs trait to not understand idioms.

”You just need to use your mana to grasp the origin magic that you are forming and then you will be able to freely manipulate it the way you want. You could even make an area spell affect an individual specifically if you use it right. It has something to do with the racial characteristics of an individual of course.

For example, a vampire could make use of blood as weapons as long as they shape it right. The same is applicable for origin magic for the Daemos.” Ascalor explained.

========

A pillar of light then descended and Adrian was revived but with only half his health due to the special characteristics of the lichʼs mana. The lich formed an evil grin as it has seen Adrianʼs true form as when he revived the Glamour wore off. The lich and the death knight felt immense anger well up as the undead fear no living being.

The death knight charged towards Adrian with fierce hunger as if it wanted Adrian to shred him to pieces. Adrian tried to run away buy it seems that his weakened status was a detriment in avoiding the strike.

[Your stats have dropped by 20% for five minutes.]

Adrian had already accepted his fate of getting killed when he heard a voice coming right behind him. He felt that the voice felt familiar but he was too busy focusing his attention on the death knight approaching him.

”Sanctuary” a voice shouted.

Adrian was suddenly marked with a sigil of a cross and a few holy glyphs. The area with a radius of three meters around him glowed in a golden light but Adrian was unable to move.

[You have been marked by Sanctuary. You cannot move due to you being marked.]

[You are unable to take damage and immune to status conditions while under the effects of Sanctuary.]

Levin Cloud reached Adrianʼs location due to riding on Sirius but his lower half did not feel comfortable due to not being used to ride creatures. He does not even have a mount because even the simplest one cost quite a lot. He was about to buy a mount with the money he got but the Pendulum he got from the Unique Job Class quest line was eating at his pockets.

Description: A pendulum forged using the metal of a dying star. The ornament in the middle is the bud of the tree of life and death, Yewdrassil. It is said the bud will bloom once it reached its highest upgradeable form.

Due to the effect of the pendulum, Sanctuary managed to last twice as long. The death knight who was about to pierce Adrian with his spear was not able to even scratch Adrianʼs body. The death knight tried again but try as it might he could not kill the demon.

Levin Cloud immediately used some healing spells and purification to heal Adrian back to full health while clearing him from the weakened status. The death knight who saw this switched its attack towards Levin Cloud as it found the priest a pest.

Levin Cloudʼs face became frightened as he suddenly tapped on Sirius to flee. Sirius obliged as even he feels threat coming from the death knight charging towards them. The two fled and led the death towards the players. The players who were already extremely fatigued due to some undead not being caught by the black hole still attacking them.

There was obvious fear in the normal players but for those belonging to the top guild, they felt joyful.

”Finally, I could go and rampage!” an orc player carrying two axes shouted excitedly.

”You wish muscle head. The death knight is ours.” A female dragonkin teased.

A human mage suddenly whispered to the female dragonkin, ”We could owe that cute Elf Priest if we save him big sister.”

”You are right. I will not delay this then and help the poor fellow. The added loot from the death knight is just a bonus” the female dragonkin said as she charged with her katana.

Adrian who saw this could not shake his head because he was in stasis but inwardly frowned. You will not be able to take him on with just a few of you. At least twenty people need to take that thing and only if those people are very strong.

Adrian shifted his sight towards the lich and saw another difficult wall to vault over or even break.

A lich would have immense magical properties in its spells and would acquire a unique mana to make the living turn into undead.

”We are going to need a lot more fire power to kill those two. They even strengthen each other.” Adrian said.
