Second Worldchapter 1158: pitting the enemies

Up there, Ramaun was fighting the infernal stormbird ferociously. His unnaturally large fists were coated with dark red energy. It was a modified Ki-infused Fist that contained the chaos element. Each of his punches also caused a strong whirlwind that staggered his opponent. But the stormbird was also a master of wind, so it could still counterattack despite the severe wind.

After Ramaun focused his attention on the stormbird, the stormbird's HP reduced at a faster rate. Ramaun was four levels higher than it, after all.

The infernal stormbird might be a monster that acted on instinct, but it still had limited intelligence. It had been blinded by its rage, but now after its HP was lowered to below twenty percent, it finally felt the danger. Ramaun, on the other hand, still had a bit over 30% of HP.

The stormbird made some attempts to disengage. But this time, it was Ramaun now that didn't let it go. The demon was pissed at this stormbird. Ramaun had forgotten about the intruders. All he wanted was to tear this stormbird to pieces.

Suddenly, a healing light fell on the stormbird.

The incident confused both combatants. They turned to where the spell came from and saw two humans floating not far away from them. One of the humans wore a priest's robe. This priest was preparing another healing spell. The spell hit the stormbird again, bringing its HP up.

An AOE spell won't heal a hostile, but a single target healing spell with a manual targeting system could still be cast on a hostile.

The human priest was Laurent. The other human beside him was Duke Alfredo. Jack had instructed Laurent to keep the Stormbird's HP at the same percentage as Ramaun.

Although the stormbird was confused about why the human healed it, it didn't let go of this opportunity. It flapped its wings and caused a chaotic electric storm right where Ramaun was.

Being assaulted by the electric storm, Ramaun received continuous damage. Despite all the lightning, he wasn't paralyzed. This was because his body was protected by a defensive skill, Obsidian Skin, which turned his skin black. The skill reduced the damage he received and protected him from all negative physical status effects.

The battle continued with the two of them losing HP steadily. Laurent continued healing the stormbird to keep it from losing to Ramaun.

"You, stupid bird! Can't you see that the human is just using you?!" Ramaun yelled in frustration.

The stormbird, however, didn't think that far. It just saw it as he got an ally to fight its current opponent.

Seeing that he couldn't reason with the stormbird, Ramaun turned to Laurent instead. He endured an assault from the stormbird to send a Ki Bullet at Laurent.

The ki bullet was from a level 80 mythical, Laurent wouldn't be unscathed if he was hit directly. But Duke Alfredo who was beside him was prepared. He put himself before Laurent and performed dual casting. One of his spells was Phantasm Fist which punched into the incoming Ki Bullet. The other spell was Magic Wall.

The phantasm fist was obliterated by the Ki Bullet. The bullet continued onward and shattered the magic wall, before slamming into Alfredo's magic shield. Alfredo was also protected by the barrier spell. His magic shield was destroyed but his barrier was still intact. Ki Bullet was not a very powerful skill, so Alfredo could still defend from it despite it being from an opponent much higher level than him.

While Alfredo defended Laurent, Laurent again cast heal on the Stormbird. Ramaun was extremely vexed.

"You, pests! I will destroy you all!!!" Ramaun roared and his body transformed. He grew larger and became more grotesque.

Jack and his royal agents recognized the skill as demonization, the same as the one used by the archdemon they defeated in the past.

Ramaun's stats shot up after the demonization. He swung his fist. As he did, a gigantic black fist materialized out of thin air. This gigantic fist crashed into the stormbird and sent it reeling.

The stormbird screeched angrily from the assault. The electricity around it intensified until its body seemingly turned into pure lightning. It then slammed itself onto Ramaun, creating a huge explosion. Laurent and Alfredo had to retreat so that they weren't caught in the explosion.

"They are going all out!" Jack, who was in hiding, uttered. He told everyone to get ready.

In their enhanced forms, the two continued to duke it out. Shaving each other's HP until their HP bars fell to nearly ten percent.

"It is time!" Jack yelled and sent his signal.

Laurent stopped healing the stormbird. He exchanged roles with Alfredo. He was now at the front protecting Alfredo while Alfredo cast a mega spell.

The protection was unneeded. Ramaun and the stormbird were too into each other that they weren't aware of what the humans were doing. The mega spell was completed and the two battling beings were locked inside Prism Prison.

The two were extremely shocked once they sensed the change in the mana around them, but it was too late. Right at that time, Jack, Arlcard, and Therras appeared out of thin air not far away.

They had been invisible due to Arlcard's new spell, Invisibility Cloak. It turned the user and the people in his vicinity invisible. Jack also made sure that they were out of mana sense range so that Ramaun was not aware of them.

They attacked immediately once they appeared. Jack was in supreme dragon form and activated Overlimit. He was holding his spirit weapon which had started its finishing mode. He threw his spirit weapon as he executed Lightning God Barrage and Soul Breath.

Arlcard cast his gigantic Dark Lord's Sword and Therras in its ultimate form was firing Earth Core Bomb.

The five explosive elemental assaults merged inside Alfredo's Prism Prison and created a huge explosion. Since the prism prison stopped damaging force from coming out, all the explosion was locked inside. The turbulent energy turned even more chaotic as all the destructive forces had nowhere to go but circled inside the prison.

The prison trembled greatly trying to hold the energy but it finally succumbed and broke. Jack was surprised that even the mega spell was unable to hold the combination attack. He had summoned his runestone of luck which was now hovering beside him.

From the dissipating ashes, they saw Ramaun's body fall to the ground far below. As for the stormbird, it was not seen anymore. Instead, several small items fell next to Ramaun's falling body.
