Omega Summoner

Chapter 322: Frey Versus Eldritch

As the war between the Undead are well underway, a different battle is occurring in another area. Frey managed to track down Eldritch to a mountain range. She has seen Eldritch visiting this specific mountain for a few days now and she thought that this was his hideout.

”I knew that someone was watching my movement but I did not expect it to be you. I never thought that you were actually the stalker kind.” Eldritch mockingly stated.

Frey wanted to catch Eldritch by surprise but she did not expect that he already knew that she was onto him. Still it was in her calculations that Eldritch would know that someone is hunting him down because of the quest that she received.

The quest she was given is the most difficult one that she has ever receive thus far but she knew that the game will not give her a quest that would be impossible. She was sure that if the Envoy of the Dark Gods is a godlike NPC then she would surely be assisted by the other Valkyries so she started the search for the envoy.

Frey became extremely shocked when she learned that Eldritch was the Envoy of the Dark Gods. She knew that the top ranking mage player had a peculiar and strong job class but she did not expect it to be one of the most powerful job class.

Frey spent about a day of reading about the Envoy of the Dark Gods from the records that the Valkyries keep. She learned that death and destruction follow whenever the Envoy of the Dark Gods walk the mortal realm. The Valkyries even dubbed the Envoy of the Dark Gods as the Bringer of Calamity.

Frey really did not expect it but she thought it makes sense on why she was chosen to hunt him down because if the other Valkyries did it then it would not be a challenge. She is quite sure that this arrangement is all planned for the balance of the game. Frey actually like that Eldritch is the Envoy of the Dark Gods because now she can have her revenge.

”Frog in your throat? Or are you remembering your embarrassing defeat against me?” Eldritch mocked Frey once more but she did not show any reaction.

Frey did not bother talking as it was never her strong point as she rarely even talk to other people. She is more of a woman of action and is always headstrong. She charged towards Eldritch using a new skill that she received.

”Lungo!” Frey stated and her body that was ten meters away from Eldritch suddenly zipped forwards and even left afterimages.

Eldritch was not caught off guard as this was not his first bout with Frey. He knew that the woman in front of him was not much of a talker.

”The Mass of Abholos!” Eldritch chanted and a blob of indescribable black matter manifested in front of him which blocked Freyʼs attack.

The blob of indescribable black matter not only blocked Freyʼs attack but also made her spear become stuck in it. Frey tried pulling as hard as he can but the blob would not let go as if her spear is now affixed in it.

”Breath of Aphoom-Zhah” Eldricth chanted and a cold mist suddenly enveloped the area that froze even the air itself.

The blob of indescribable black matter started freezing over and Freyʼs weapon also started becoming cold. The freezing blob also became slightly brittle so Frey managed to chip at the blob thereby retrieving her spear before she got completely engulfed in the frozen mist.

A part of Freyʼs hand had a layer of frost and she did take damage from the Eldritchʼ spell. She immediately took some distance from the area affected by the cold mist. She tried shaking the layer of frost in her hands but it showed no signs of thawing.

”Iridescence.” Frey stated and her body is suddenly covered in a light that changes in color perception depending on oneʼs viewing angle.

The skill Iridescence not only warmed up Freyʼs body but it also buffed her attack and made her attacks into range ones. Frey would just swing her spear and waves of iridescent energy is fired towards Eldritch. Eldritch used a mana shield to block the energy waves but the attack bypassed the shield and hit his body.

The damage that Eldritch got per hit was not that high because the energy waves are just an extension of Freyʼs basic attacks. There is one thing that he noticed as he got increased damage every time he got hit. It seems that a stacking buff is placed on Frey every time she hits her opponent with the iridescent energy wave.

Eldritch also noticed that Frey is becoming stronger after every exchange with her. This is the perks of being a Valkyrie as they are like berserkers without the madness status ailment affixed to them. Frey is also grateful to Eldritch as he is not one of those burst mages because she would not be able to utilize the full potential of her job class.

Eldritch finally decided that it is not in his best interest to either stay here or prolong the battle. As much as he wanted to fight and kill Frey, he has more important things to take care of that would be better for him in the future.

”Spawn of Atlach-Nacha” Eldritch chanted and 30% of his total health vanished as six giant grotesque looking eggs are fired from his staff.

The eggs dropped from the ground and cracked revealing the atrocities that were inside. Spiders that had human heads as bodies that are one meter in height came out of the eggs. The spider atrocities then charged towards Frey.

Frey took her time in dealing with the spiders but her target was already gone when she glanced at the direction of Eldritch. She looked at her map and he was still in the area. Frey followed Eldritch inside of a cave inside the mountain not knowing what was awaiting for her inside of it.
