Chapter 1052: Mist Mane Lion III

”I see. So that is how it actually moves using the mist. Let me try something then.” Levin Cloud muttered as he suddenly focused his mind on his surroundings.

Levin Cloud could feel that he became one with his surroundings as if the air that he breathes is also the mist. With a push of his hand, the mist parted away which suddenly revealed a faint wisp.

Levin Cloud pushed away the mist at the location he thought that the mist form of the Mist Mane Lion is at. He did not accurately pinpoint it at first as he only touched the tail of the field boss. He is not an insane monster that could accurately pinpoint everything and also correct oneself with time magic if he did not target correctly.

He was not able to reveal the Mist Mane Lion that is hiding or rather that turned into mist, but they managed to see the tail. Levin Cloud just needs to accurately predict the next movements of the Mist Mane Lion. The only thing that is going for him now is the fact that they cannot attack it when it is in mist form.

If only they had the elemental father and daughter duo, then they could just blast everything around them which would greatly damage the Mist Mane Lion as well. Their group consists of mostly sustain and damage per second characters. Necromancers are not famed for bursting their opponents especially if there are no dead bodies around.

”I call upon you to aid me in my struggle and take revenge on those that have wronged you! Undead Rise!” Creepysoo casted as his death energy suddenly covered the whole ruined settlement.

Creepysoo used up 80% of his mana just to make sure that he can revive multiple undead. The spirits of those that got wronged and those that were not able to take rest suddenly rose from the ground. The spirits consist of numerous mist monsters that became wraiths while the Mist Elves became specters.

The mist elves do not know if they feel comfortable that their brethren are called from their slumber, but they remembered the phrase that Creepysoo stated. The only ones he rose from the dead are those that have unfinished business or struggles. They suddenly felt their hearts clench upon learning that their own brethren cannot be laid to rest.

”Do not worry. The undead that he uses gets purified after every battle. You can be rest assured that they will be laid to eternal peace after this.” Levin Cloud stated as he activated his death energy to the maximum.

”For the Glory of the Great Envoy of the Twin Gods!” The undead all shouted as they charged towards the mist.

”I summoned them but why do I feel that they respect you more?” Creepysoo muttered but he did not really mean it as he knows that just Levin Clouds presence could enhance those that have life and death energy.

He is basically a living saint of the Church of the Twin Gods so all those that praise the Twin Gods will gain immense power just from being near him. The undead that Creepysoo rose are all empowered with Levin Cloudʼs presence are charging towards the location of the Mist Mane Lion as they could sense its life force.

Undead do not use their sight to see the living but use the souls as a way to determine their location. The undead that Creepysoo summoned basically got upgraded because of his presence. If both Equinox and Levin Cloud are in the same party with Creepysoo then those undead are basically enhanced twice.

The Mist Mane Lion could see even if it is in mist form, but it could not attack. It does not have anyway of attacking using its mist form which is why it often returns to its physical form when it needs to attack. The Mist Mane Lion could also not keep turning into mist as it uses a great deal of mana just turning into that form but there is also another reason.

The mist in the Misty Forest is not normal and the Mist Mane Lion escaped from the deepest parts because the mist there has been corrupted. An unknown being has already claimed the deepest parts of the Misty Forest and is using those that got infected by the corrupted mist as its pawns.

Almost all of its kin fell victim to this unknown being, but it managed to escape. The Mist Mane Lion thought that it could claim this land as its new territory after killing all the beings in it, but some humanoid beings are now attacking it. What the Mist Mane Lion hates the most is losing because it has a tall pride.

The Mist Mane Lion knew that it will be driven out of its territory at this rate, but it does not want to concede. Its pride is too high for it to turn tail and run away which is why it used its powerful attack. The Mist Mane Lion suddenly appeared before them and sucked all of the mist in the area to the point that it cleared it.

”Everyone! Scatter and hide in the trees if you can! It will activate its Mist Mane Lion Roar!” Elder Ceo shouted as she knew that this attack is very powerful.

The warning came too late, or the attack of the Mist Mane Lion came too fast as a loud roar echoed in the area. Solstice had no choice but to use her life saving skill that turns her body into blood mist. She did not get damaged, but her blood mist body got scattered everywhere to the point that it would take ten minutes for her body to return back to normal.

Creepysoo immediately commanded Mummie to grab the two mist elves that came with them. He wanted to get their mounts as well, but they were too heavy for Mummie himself. He then commanded all the summoned undead to block the attack for them.

The specters which are the undead mist elves happily accepted the command as they want to be of use to their living brethren once more before they transition to the afterlife. Undead do not show emotion but the specters could be seen smiling as they sacrificed their life. They went to the afterlife with happiness as they could save one of their own and are happy that their descendants still live on.

Elder Ceo is not that lucky as she took shelter behind a tree, but it was not sturdy enough to protect her fully. Levin Cloud had no other choice and used his body as a shield since he does not want to sacrifice NPCs for their sake. Elder Ceo is also the only one that could open the secret area so she must never die.

”Guardian!” Elder Ceo stated as she teared up upon witnessing such a scene once again. She has seen thi familiar scene before and she was just a child back then.

====

”Ceo! You have the potential to lead all of your people so you must not fall here. You must escape the settlement as fast as you can and go to the very outskirts of the forest if you must. All of you must rebuild in order to become strong once more.” The Guardian of the Misty Forest stated as she used her body to cover the young Ceo from the attacks of the monster wave.

”I promise!” The young Ceo replied as she was taught to never disobey the guardian. With a smiling face, the Guardian of the Misty Forest sent Ceo away with her small Mist Cat. The young Ceo never looked back even if she heard the cries of pain of the guardian for it will be disrespectful of her to not live when the guardian sacrificed herself.

====

The Mist Mane Lionʼs Roar ended and the whole area got decimated. All the summoned undead got destroyed while the mounts of the two mist elves are in critical condition. Solstice scattered into blood mist and is taking her time returning to her physical form. Levin Cloud died from blocking the attack that headed for Elder Ceo and her Mist Panther.

Elder Ceo suddenly exploded into powerful mana as something within her awakened. The emotion of having another guardian sacrifice her life for her could no longer be bottled up. Even the mist in the surroundings trembled as the Mist Mane Lion showed signs of fear as well.

”It is all my fault! If only I was strong enough or was knowledgeable enough then no one would need to sacrifice their life for me!” Elder Ceo stated as something awakened within her.

Elder Ceo held her right hand up as the mist suddenly started to gather on her palm. The condensing mist suddenly transformed into a pale gray bow that seemed ghostly. A crystal also appeared on Elder Ceoʼs forehead as the very mist in the area could now be used by her.
