Chapter 522: Classic, We’re Truly Strong! (Please Subscribe!)
The lingering light and rampant gales grew increasingly feeble, and when the final echo of the arrow dissipated, the “Fairy Avatar” had already vanished without a trace.
Not even a shard of the magic stones survived; everything that once signified the existence of the Celestial Bull had been violently erased by the arrow.
Only the bottomless crater pierced by the arrow silently narrated the events that had transpired here.
(Miracle: Scorpio Shot… This must be my strongest single-target assassination technique so far…?)
After sensing the significant amount of magic power depleted by this move, Izay exhaled deeply.
Aside from its lengthy charging time, this miracle boasted unparalleled single-target burst damage and unmatched firing speed. Perhaps no one in Orario could rival it.
This attack was capable of dealing effective lethal damage to foes at Lv.8, the highest tier, transcending two entire levels of divine blessings. Anything below this level that was struck would likely perish instantly.
Furthermore, the “Scorpio Shot” had another method of release—by invoking the power of the constellations to summon an “arrow.”
Similar to the Noble Phantasm of a certain sage in Izay’s memory.
The difference was that Izay harnessed the full strength of the Scorpio constellation.
The energy of the entire constellation was at his disposal.
It could effortlessly pierce through planets… truly a planet-destroying cannon in every sense of the word.
Of course, the current Izay was unable to mobilize the entire force of the Scorpio constellation. Communicating with part of its power was already his limit.
Mobilizing the entire Scorpio constellation… the current Izay wasn’t yet worthy.
Ultimately, it came back to the same issue—insufficient power.
As an adventurer, Izay’s extraordinary attributes at Lv.6 had already made him stand out in Orario.
But as a newly-born deity who had just acquired divinity,
Izay was undoubtedly weak.
Even the weakest god in Orario, if unleashed after unsealing their powers, would still be stronger than him.
There was still much room for growth, and Izay clenched his fists.
Just like a famous quote from some great person: The higher you stand, the more you observe the world from such heights, the more you realize your own insignificance.
Izay wouldn’t become arrogant with his current power—not at least now.
Because he was someone with a goal.
Until he reached that goal, he would maintain a mindset of learning.
Excessive competitiveness was meaningless.
“Izay… are you alright?”
While he was lost in thought, Ais quietly approached him.
Seeing that Izay hadn’t spoken after the attack landed, the young girl mistakenly assumed it was due to the exhaustion caused by casting the “magic.”
“…I’m fine, just thinking about some things.”
Ais’s concern pulled Izay out of his thoughts, and he responded lightly.
“What can you possibly think about? Why you’re so powerful, maybe?”
Shouldering his battle axe, Gress unusually found himself in a mood to crack a couple of jokes.
Compared to the first encounter with the fairy avatar, the situation now was simply too good.
Neither Finn nor Riviria had to intervene. Just he leading six of the new generation officers managed to annihilate it.
Though Izay’s magic certainly played a huge role.
But does it matter?
Isn’t Izay one of us?
His conquest is ours, right?
Yeah, we’re really strong!! (doge)
The old man seemed to have spent too much time with someone, being influenced subtly, and his inner self had become somewhat improper.
Maybe that’s what they call ‘tsundere’?
Still, Gress was aware deep down.
The reason the battle went so smoothly was mainly because everyone had grown!
So many beings at the “Hero Domain”… visibly growing stronger!
“The old man, stop teasing me. It’s just something akin to a finishing move; who doesn’t have one or two?” Izay shook his head with a wry smile.
“I! I don’t have any finishing moves!” As if arguing against him, Tiona immediately raised her hand in response the moment Izay finished speaking.
Izay: “…”
Magic imbeciles shouldn’t flaunt it, okay?
That’s embarrassing!
Izay shot the little angel an expression of disdain.
“Waaah~! You’ve changed, Izay! You didn’t used to look at me like that! My heart hurts!”
Receiving the transmitted gaze, Tiona appeared utterly “heartbroken.”
Even knowing she was just playing around, it couldn’t help but make people sigh… the once pure Tiona had learned how to act.
Ah, whose fault is it?
Truly, white stockings aren’t suitable for riding sisters…
…
After the main officers crushed the Dark Faction’s last trump card, the members of Loki Familia erupted into cheers.
Because their purpose in exploring this dungeon was to find and destroy any possible “Fairy Avatars” hidden by the Dark Faction.
Before entering, both Finn and Loki had anticipated the possibility of encountering such entities. To prevent them from becoming time bombs threatening Orario, their Familial Group initiated this invasion.
Although the process took some twists and turns, the final outcome… was still a resounding victory for Loki Familia!
Having accomplished their mission, how could anyone not be happy?
Then… when Raul, Cruz, and the others were practically about to shout the hall apart, the group finally calmed down勉强.
“Hmm, everyone, I feel this place might not be safe… why don’t we celebrate back home?”
“Follow the leader!”
“I think so too~!”
“Izay’s earlier output was too strong!”
“Huh? How did this end up on me?”
Worthy of mention, perhaps disturbed by the sounds of battle or the subsequent celebration, Finn also woke up on Raul’s back.
When the guild master realized that everything had settled after he came out of unconsciousness, he was still somewhat confused.
His usually calm face rarely showed signs of bewilderment.
He had only temporarily stepped away, and in that time, everything was already over?
So fast~!
No.
Is it so strong?
The growth of these new-generation officers exceeded the expectations of this leader.
Unexpectedly, yet somehow expected.
In contrast, the guild master who fell unconscious after being attacked seemed somewhat… useless?
With a rather helpless mindset, Finn was carried back to the surface by Tione.
As for why he was carried back?
Let’s just say a certain Amazon fangirl was taking advantage under the guise of tending to the injured guild master.
In reality, after being carefully treated by Izay, all of Finn’s wounds had healed.
The prolonged unconsciousness was merely due to the depletion of spirit energy caused by curses and severe injuries.
While physical wounds could be quickly healed with magic,
Spiritual fatigue could only be restored through rest.
