With the ground itself cracking under Danzel's feet, he dashed towards his target.
Noticing the necromancer's sudden change of speed and raise of killing the undead, Isamu widens his eyes in surprise. But that alone wasn´t going to stop him from acting.
"I will crush you!"
Raising his greatsword, he swung diagonally towards Danzel who was running straight towards the blade.
Although swinging his greatsword from above his head would bring out a much stronger impact, Isamu went for a diagonally slash.
As he already saw that the necromancer could block his great sword with a shield if you swung like that, he decided to go with a different solution.
One that would either push the necromancer back or make him unable to attack him after his swing.
`I won´t make the same mistake again!´ Isamu thought as he watched how his great sword neared the necromancer.
But instead of the necromancer already raising his shield to block the swing, he instead runs straight forward towards the edge of the great sword.
`Huh?´
Though confused by the necromancer's reckless action, Isamu saw it as an opportunity.
"Die!" Isamu screamed while putting every little strength into this one swing.
As he watched in slow motion how his great sword not even being half a meter away from the necromancer's body, he noticed a chance that was rapidly taking.
The dark armor that the necromancer wore glowed with light and that very light started to expand into forming a barrier around his body.
And like hitting a metal wall, the great sword hit the newly created barrier and bounced back.
"An enchanted armor?" Isamu said stupefied by his wrong realization.
As he didn´t notice the necromancer gathering his mana or casting any spells together with the armor's glow, Isamu could only associate that barrier as equipment.
As for how he was wrong, it was because he thought that this effect came from an enchantment.
"Dammit-!" with his eyes being locked at the dead mana engulfed blade, Isamu was reminded of the pain that he felt a few moments ago.
`I will die!´ He thought as he tried to pull his great sword back to defend himself.
Unlike his expectation though, the necromancer hadn´t such sorts of plans.
"You will come later." The cold voice said.
Without being given the chance to comprehend the owner of this cold voice.
The shield that he blocked his greatsword a few moments ago was pushed with incredible speed and power towards Isamu's chest.
"Baah!"
Falling down to his knees from the impact while all air in his lungs left his body, one could say that Isamu felt terrible.
Even in this condition, he didn´t let his grip on the great sword.
And as he was about to stand up and defend himself from whatever was coming his way, he saw froze on what he saw.
The necromancer who could use what was once in front of him was now starting to run away.
Or rather, towards the direction where their priestess was.
Realizing his intention, cold sweat fell down his back.
"Shit! Run Priestess!" Isamu yelled in urgency.
Hearing Isamu´s cry, everyone including the priestess herself noticed who the necromancer was aiming for.
With Sean who fended of the mana arms and the magic caster destroying the two undead of their side and Sylva who was drawing her bow to kill the last undead skull wolve with the help of the [Holy Light] spell.
The priestess was forced to stop her spell as she now was to herself to deal with the incoming necromancer.
"Oh, Goddess of the endless light-"
While she was preparing her spell.
Danzel dashed with a terrifying speed towards the first of his target. The priestess that could use the bane of every undead out there, holy magic.
Though the instincts of the undead added together with his [Sin of Wraith] and her being use such sort of magic.
His killing intent became suffocating while his vision turned into a tunnel vision with the pair of ethereal eyes being locked on the mortal in front of her.
`I will kill you!´
"I will kill you!"
His conviction and determination of this single task were unbreakable.
As he reached not further than 7 meters though, a golden magic circle appeared under his feet.
"-I beseech you to guide the evil of this pure soul away with you unending light!" The priestess cast her spell.
As if responding to her voice, the magic circle under Danzel's feet lighten up with golden light.
"[Holy Smite]!"
In the next moment, the magic circle was engulfed with an endless amount of light.
"KYAAAAAGHHH!!!!"
Together with the appearance of the light, a howling scream came from the middle of the magic circle.
And the one who was screaming in pain was none other than Danzel itself who felt as if he was being boiled alive.
The pain was so intense that he couldn´t muster any strength to move out of the light.
Each passing second his ethereal dark green eyes flickered, looking as if they could disappear any moment.
The pain was strong that it even cleared his mind from the effect of [Sin of Wrath].
Having his full relationality back though, made his experience in the endless light much worse.
"KYAAAG-Kyah-ghhh!!!"
Though it was many times more painfully like that, it allowed Danzel to handle that dire situation.
Wrapping his armor with the mana platings to reduce the pain even so slightly, he started guiding his dead mana around his body to activate a skill he never used before.
Gritting his teeth from pain, the skill activated.
`[Coating Miasma]´
The next moment he activated the skill.
The dead man in his body flared up from his body with his armor leaking some of the dead mana constantly.
Reducing the damage and the pain from the holy spell, Danzel was finally able to push himself out from the light.
"Haah~" Getting out of the light, couldn´t help but sigh in relief.
That moment though only lasted for a brief second as his killing intent raised to the extremest without the help of [Sin of Wrath].
"You!"
Using [Swift Movements] to appear in front of the priestess, he raised his blade up high.
"DIE!!!" Danzel yelled as he swung the blade towards her.
Hearing the enraged cold voice together with his killing intent, the priestess froze as she stared in front of what to her seemed like a colossus swinging his sword to get her neck.
"Ah..."
Without even being able to voice out her thoughts.
She watched how the blade was coming down for her neck.
But before the blade could come down for her neck, a wind-piercing sound made its presence clear.
*Fshooooh!
Taking notice of the sound, Danzel stared at the coming arrow with mana flying towards him.
Recognizing it as the arrow that could destroy the walls from a building, Danzel cursed internally.
`As if I am going a mere arrow stop me!´
Without having any choice left, he re-directed his swing towards the arrow itself.
The arrow soon met with Danzel's blade.
If it was a normal arrow without any techniques put into practice, Danzel could easily fend it off.
But without being the case, it wasn´t going to be so easy.
The grip in the handle of his sword shook so slightly as he was trying to brush the arrow away.
Alas, he couldn´t.
*Crack.
With cracks appearing in his sword, the next moment his whole sword cracked and exploded into pieces as the arrow was pushed to the floor on his right.
"Dammit." Danzel cursed from losing his weapon.
As taking another weapon from his storage ring and swinging at the priestess would take precious seconds in which Sean who was already on his way would stop him. Danzel guided his mana towards his shield.
`[Shield Charge]´
Hitting her with a shield similar to how Danzel did on Isamu, the priestess was sent flying a few meters above the air.
Compared to the much stronger body and figure that Isamu, the priestess could be considered quite skinny. It was easy for Danzel to send her up into the air.
Not a second later he sent her flying, Danzel turned around and blocked the sword from Sean.
*Tinnk!
"You!!"
Ignoring the infuriated man in front of him, Danzel's eyes were still focused on the priestess.
Putting his mind to work, he cast [Hand of Mana Affinity] to appear near where the priestess in the air was.
Gripping her foot, the dark green mana hands dragged her and changed the directions on where she was flying.
As she stands in the middle of the room where the broken-up gate was, instead of flying in the gates the dark green arms dragged her outside the throne room.
And when she was about to hit the floor again, the mana arms let off her leg go, essentially throwing towards the beginning of the stairs.
"Aggh!"
Hitting her head to the floor, she was unable to stop herself and rolled back the stairs back.
Rolling the stairs unable to stop herself, once she stopped she felt a huge amount of pain running on her whole body.
With her head bleeding and covering her eye, she felt as she was beaten up by someone for an hour through the end.
"I-I need to return...the others need me."
Struggling to stand up, she searched blindly around her for the staff that was granted to her by the church, symbolizing being a successful priestess of the Sacred Cross church.
"Where is-ah!" Exclaiming in surprise, she saw a pair of feet stopping in front of her.
Recognizing them to be from humans' feet, she sighed in relief.
`It seems that there is still holding on against the wraiths´
"Excuse me, could you hand me, my staff? It should be around here. My body is too wounded so I need to cast a miracle to heal." The priestess said only the necessary word needed.
Although she wanted to know the situation down here and see how she could help, healing her body and going back to kill the necromancer was the priority that her party decided.
After waiting for a few seconds without the person in front of her replaying she raised her head.
"Did you hear me? I need my st-staff?"
Upon raising her head, she stared confused at the man holding a voulge up high. Looking as he was about to swing it towards her.
"Huh?"
Unable to process what was currently happening, a cold voice spoke to her.
"Death to all the living."
And with a swift motion, her head went rolling to the ground
