Chapter 26: Eeh? It’s Over Just Like This?
Aurora cocked her head up and saw a person in a black robe sitting on the altar with his back facing them. Judging from the body shape, the person should be a woman.
"Khukhukhu... I've never thought you would be able to defeat my little minion and come here..." An old and dry voice sounded as the black-robed woman on the altar slowly stood up. "In this case... you can be part of my nourishment!!"
She turned around to reveal a wrinkled like a dry tree bark, hideously old woman's face, and the glint in her eyes stared straight at the three people under the altar.
"Oh?"
Aurora frowned slightly, took a step forward, and inserted the sword into the ground. "Hahaha! You are afraid of my power, so you don't dare to resist...don't worry... I won't make you suffer." The woman in the black robe thought they had given up resistance when she saw Aurora put down the sword, her parched lips curling into an evil grin.
These three girls had abundant magic power and vitality, and as long as she devoured them, not only could she become younger and more beautiful, but she could even step into the realm of a second ring magician.
With such a thought, the scarlet light in her eyes gleamed more intensely.
Hearing the words of the black-robed woman, Aurora just raised her hand and raised a middle finger at the black-robed woman.
"Tell me, old hag, how do you want to die? Do you go through the procedure first or just let us bury you? Do you want me to pass your will to your family or a friend? Oh my, how can I be so insensitive… someone like you, who is spending countless years in this kind of place, won't have any friend! What you called it? Ah yes, a shut-in! I doubt a shut-in like you has a social life outside. Well, I kind of understand your feeling, though… fortunately I still have games and online friends so I don't end up being a lonely old ghost like you… what a pitiful old hag… GAHAHAHAHAHA!!"
"Old...old hag?!" The black-robed woman staggered back and let out an angry howl. "Ahhh! I'm going to tear your mouth apart! I...I'm going to let you hang up and scrape your flesh and feed it to maggot!!!"
The woman in black angrily raised the magic wand in her hand and chanted dry spells, and the surrounding dark elements gathered on the magic wand.
"Ah Leader! Why are you provoking her!!" Claudia couldn't help but yell in fright and glare angrily at Aurora.
"To make her lose her composure, of course," Aurora stated in a matter-of-factly tone, "A dark mage is a particularly troublesome opponent to fight. If we don't let the blood rush into her head, she definitely won't fight us head-on. Just imagine being surrounded by an army of skeletons while being harassed by her curse. It'll be annoying."
Aurora was speaking the truth. In the walkthrough she had read before, the poster said that he had lost more than five times before finding the solution to her annoying style of fighting—Taunt. When the tank cast Taunt on her, she would stop using small tricks and directly confront her enemy with killer moves. It was still dangerous but it was better than suffering from her harassment and more manageable.
Claudia nodded, seemingly finding her explanation quite reasonable, but she still felt something was off and asked doubtfully, "And... the real reason is?"
"She just pisses me off." Aurora shrugged her shoulders and replied carelessly before readying her stance, "Be careful! It's coming!"
"Dark Lightning Burst!" The black-robed woman waved her wand, and black-purple lightning burst out from the top of the wand and struck Aurora below.
"Holy Light Barrier." Claudia, who had already prepared for Aurora's hint, immediately released a translucent barrier in front of them.
A wave of lightning bolts bombarded the barrier in the blink of an eye, making thunderous noise and splashing in all directions. Even though Aurora resisted in front, this powerful attack almost crushed Claudia, who was supporting the barrier below, kneeling on the ground. Fortunately, Flamme, who was behind her, supported her and barely avoided the attack.
As soon as the black-robed woman's attack failed, the two people under the barrier drew their swords and rushed towards the altar.
"Magic Cannon!"
Aurora, who was sprinting, sensed that the black-robed woman was about to launch another attack. She condensed a light element cannon in her left hand and blasted at her fiercely.
Flamme stepped on the stone pillar and kicked back hard, and she flew like an arrow toward the woman in black, thrust her sword, and stabbed the woman in a black robe on the altar.
"Asshole!"
Facing the impending attack of the two, the black-robed woman quickly moved to the side to avoid Aurora's magic cannon. And at this time, Flamme had also jumped onto the altar and launched an attack on the black-robed woman.
Pulling out the sword for four consecutive strikes, spinning and slashing, Flamme quickly swung the long sword and attacked the woman in black.
The woman in the black robe was also frantically resisting Flamme's swordsmanship with the wand in her hand. Even though her strength was slightly higher than that of Flamme, she still couldn't get the upper hand from her relentless swords, so she could only dodge in embarrassment.
"Hey, old hag! Look who behind!"
The black-robed woman, who was resisting in a panic, suddenly heard Aurora's voice behind her and turned her head subconsciously, only to see a golden sword piercing her chest.
"Ah! Despicable bastard!"
With a sharp roar, the magic circle under her feet suddenly emitted an astonishing light, and then the whole altar began to shake.
"She has entered the second stage!" Aurora hugged Flamme in the waist, who was still about to attack, and jumped down and ran crazily towards Claudia as soon as she landed.
The altar collapsed behind her, and a large number of evil spirits emerged from it and circled around.
"Quick! Kill them!" The black-robed woman shouted hysterically, pointing at the three of them, and the evil spirits roared towards them.
"L-leader...Leader! What should we do! There are so many evil spirits!"
Faced with thousands of evil spirits rushing towards her with distorted faces, Claudia's little face turned pale with fright. At this time, Aurora stood in front of her, and with a wave of her hand, a dozen bundles of magic scrolls appeared out of thin air.
"Old hag, you have quite a lot of subordinates who are very capable of fighting, right?"
Aurora let out a big grin as she directly picked up a first-level magic scroll and tore it open, shot out several golden lights from it, and directly locked and rushed towards several evil spirits, then turned into a shimmer and disappeared.
"Come on! Use them all!" Aurora laughed wildly, separated the scrolls, and threw them into the hands of Flamme and Claudia. "I'd like to see if you have more people or if I have more scrolls!"
In an instant, golden light shot out like fireworks, and these evil spirits were superseded at a fast speed under the magical attack of light purification. The black-robed woman's face turned blue and green. It took her several years to firmly hold all the souls in this cemetery in her hands. This was her trump card!
But now, several years of hard work have completely come to naught under the attack of these light purification magics.
"Why! Why! Why! IT'S NOT FUCKING FAAIIIRR!!!"
She roared angrily. No matter how much she thought about it, she couldn't understand why these three people would grasp the weakness of her evil spirit army? Why would a normal person carry so many light purification scrolls on her body?
Of course, it was all thanks to Earl Vidal's wealth and Bastian's hardworks!
This was the power of money!!
As a second-generation chaebol, even though she despised her parents, she didn't hate their fortune. If not for that, how could she become the player with the most magic items and weapons and quickly become the strongest player with the wealthiest guild in Legend Online?
"Don't you act like a victim, you cheap old hag! You use forbidden magic to control the undead and forcefully wake them up from their eternal slumber. You also tried to sacrifice Miss Vidal in an attempt to restore youth. Go ahead and die!"
Aurora tore open all six second tier magic scrolls simultaneously, like a prodigal son. The holy light shines from it, directly sending over a large group of evil spirits in front of her into Western Paradise.
At this moment, there were not many evil spirits left on the field, and the black-robed woman supported her body with a magic wand, and her body became more rickety. Forcibly summoning so many evil spirits also consumed a lot of her magic power.
The sword wound on the chest, the approaching life expectancy, and Aurora's words made up for it. The enraged woman in the black robe coughed several times and fell off the altar's edge into the ground.
[Ding! Congratulations to player Aurora for gaining 2000 experience, leveling up to level 8, and gaining a skill point]
After the black-robed woman fell off the altar, several evil spirits that had been hovering wailed and disappeared into the wall, and the surroundings became quiet again.
"Did she die on her own?"
The system's prompt made Aurora a little complicated. Although the player said that as long as she brought enough light purification scrolls, the boss after the second stage would not be difficult at all.
But she never expected that the reason there was no difficulty was that the boss, after the second stage, fell to her death...
It could only be said that she was accepted by God because she was too old already, Aurora comforted herself in this way.
"Leader? Are we successful?"
Claudia stared blankly at the tall woman in the black robe lying not far away, why did she feel... so anticlimatic? At first, she thought it would be a tough enemy, and she was obviously ready for a bitter fight.
But… what with this kind of ending…
"Yes, we can only say that we are too well prepared... we come just at the right time." Aurora shrugged.
She realized that if the black-robed woman was successful in absorbing Lady Vidal's vitality and returning her to her youth, the battle would be more difficult. A magician who majored in dark magic was indeed very troublesome, so she could only say that she lived a wrong life.
Well, anyway, everything ended perfectly and it was time to harvest!
"Let's go, let's clean the battlefield and go back to awaken Lady Vidal."
