Omega Summoner

The black hole circulating and sucking all the enemies around it that were produced by Argent and even herself and all of them were receiving devastating damage. Numerous system prompts appeared before the eyes the two best friends.

Due to the immense number of Spirits of the Damned, Adrian leveled up twice and so did his soulbounds. Even if the experience gained was but a drop per Spirit of the Damned, thousands would still cause a massive rain that could burst a dam which is why the huge experience boost was swept by the party. After the duration of Vortex, Argent could be seen to have tattered clothes and she looked like a beggar which is a far cry to her previous appearance that looked like a dignified noble. Her hair was in a mess with bruises all over her body. She no longer had the ability to talk due to the her status condition which was read using the skill Inspect.

Name: Argent Soulscreech

Level: 35

HP: 439,786/500,000(87.95%)

Status: Unconditional Bleeding, Intense Hate

Unconditional Bleeding meant that the bleeding status condition would not stop unless a legendary or higher healing skill would be used to stop it which only the top brass of churches could use. She would lose 0.1% of her HP every minute because of her status as a legendary named NPC which because of her state of being, she has increased tenacity that lessens the effect of status conditions against her.

Due to the constant damage dealt to her by Adrian's party, the manage to drop her health by 12% which is the more than the required number that they had to deal. They focused on Argent and see if she would make a different move or enter her next phase but she just stood there glaring at all of her enemies and even smiled creepily.

Before Adrian's party could even dodge, an invisible force constricted him and all of his party members. Kanlaon was pushed back down to the ground. A few seconds later, Argent started giggling but was unable to audibly laugh and her contorted body started to fix itself back again. Her bones that were not aligned started straightening. The process even made sound of bone cracking which could make someone faint due to the numerous sounds of bones being fixed back into position. Thankfully, Adrian and Marlon are addicted to the horror movie genre that they were not that bothered by the sounds and even the visual they are experiencing. The party started to struggle because they knew that once she was fixed, she would start her assault and they would likely perish if they did not release themselves from being bound.

[You are bound by a force greater than anything that your mortal soul could handle. You are bound indefinitely.]

A few minutes later which felt like an eternity of struggling to Adrian and his companions, Argent was finally able to stand upright and with a posture like she did when she encountered her aggressors. After repairing the bones in her body, she wiped the blood on her neck using her right hand and let it drip towards the ground. When the blood dropped, the previous flowery and plant filled area started to lose its vibrant color because all living things started to wither and die. When the whole area became lifeless, tons of energy was gathering unto the hands of Argent. She looked at her aggressors with ferocity that would kill if looks could actually kill a person.

When the magical energy in the area was bled dry because of Argent, numerous notifications appeared in front of both Adrian and Marlon.

[Magical Energy has been depleted in the area.]

[Due to the lack of magical energy, it has become difficult to breath]

[The spirits of nature are weakening.]

[Spells would have twice as much resource consumption because of the depletion of magical energy.]

It was at that moment that both of them knew that they would be killed and just braced themselves for the upcoming end. Argent fired the energy that was condensed in her palm and it became a beam filled with tyrannical energy that Adrian's group could barely breath because of the force. Adrian's group was going to get hit when a giant sword that was as black as night came down from the heavens and blocked the beam of destructive energy. The sword was about five meters in length and has runes engraved on the glaive that pulsed with blue light.

[You have read the runes on the blade of death.]

[You have not fully comprehended the meaning of the runes. The runes for the Symphony of Death has increased your understanding of the world.]

[The Scribe's Intuition Skill has increased to Mastery level 5 from Mastery Level 1.]

[Scribe Mastery has increased to beginner level 4 from beginner level 1]

Adrian was shocked because he just read some of the runes that he could recognize that was written on the sword and his skill Scribe's intuition jumped straight to five. He also went from Scribe Mastery beginner level 1 and jumped immediately to beginner level 4. Adrian was amazed due to the runes and studied them even further because he wanted to use some of the unfamiliar ones. He would definitely write some of them later in his Scribe Journal after this whole fiasco.

Adrian was so focused on the battle that he forgot to check the mini-quest if it was properly registered and to his glee it definitely did.

Urgent Mini-Quest!!!(Status: Finished)

1.) Disable the vocal ability of Argent

2.) Deal at least 10% of her Maximum Health Points towards Argent Soulscreech

Reward: Clearance of any Silver Moore related quest and 500% experience to all party members.(Received after the dungeon instance is over)

Adrian whispered to Marlon that they are finished with the quest and is probably in the middle of a cut-scene which is why they have not received their rewards yet. They told each other that they should let it play out and see if they were really meant to be able to kill Argent. A black sword was stopping her attack which means another legendary named NPC could have been summoned because they cleared the mini-quest. Yet a doubt rose in Adrian's heart when he saw the sword but a warrior not coming to grab it back. A few seconds has passed but Argent's beam of energy still did not waver but instead she became irritated because an unknown sword pierced through her barrier and is currently blocking it so that she could finally kill the pests.

Argent then stopped firing the beam and condensed the energy into spheres in both her hands instead.

" Since a beam cannot pass through that sword, I would just have to bombard the whole area until those pests are hit." Argent thought to herself as she once again bled all the Silver Moores of its magical energy and this time it encompassed all of it which even the respawning treants were bled dry of energy.

"Let us see on how you deal with this attack!" Argent said in her mind at she unleashed the power inside of the spheres she filled with magical energy. The beams became arrows of light that flew through the sky and started raining down on the group and this time for sure they were sure of their demise because the sword did not move from its place where it was planted on the ground.

Adrian looked at his struggling soulbounds and they also looked at him. Their eyes communicated as if Adrian was telling them, "It is okay to rest for now. Do not struggle in vain". He even closed his eyes so that he could prepare for the inevitable.

Arrows made of concentrated magical energy are about to bombard the group from different directions when another object fell from the sky. A shield dropped from the heavens and emitted a jade glow that generated a green barrier for each of the individuals in Adrian's group. No matter how much force or how many arrows punctured the barriers it did not show signs of breaking, there weren't even cracks. Adrian opened his eyes because there was no notification that he died and was amazed even further. He looked around to see who was the one who helped them but there was no one present.

"Who the heck is helping us?" was the only thought in Adrian's mind.
