Demon Slaying System - Chapter 91
While mark was holding his fort against the puppets, sidmon and clain were doing their part in transfering their mana to levi.
Though much of the mana was devoured by the floor, half of it wasn’t necessarily wasted as it was absorbed by levi’s mana core against the array below.
The spectators, up at the flying ship were startled, looking at this sudden development. They had never expected to see a puppet get destroyed much less a couple within a minute.
They knew that levi played an important part in defeating these puppets and so was mark. Though these both could choose to cross the green line for good they hadn’t done yet, for the other four in the test track who were in a deal with them.
A cooperation within the six testers at a time was never seen till today. Only the existence of mark was able to bring this change to begin with.
Had the other puppets besides the two were also trashed, this feat would create a sensation in the masters test to begin with, for ages to be recorded.
As no such event had taken place before where all six testers had ever crosses the green line to begin with.
When these puppets were getting destroyed, the spectators were able to spot a slight change in the aura encircling mark I.e, the time at which he levelled up.
An unparelled potential, a person who was able to subdue a relic and even finding the way to deal with this trap set and use it to his advantage.
The spectators were thoroughlly convinced of the reason as to why the upper management wanted to eliminate mark faster.
Had they failed to eliminate him at such a wonderful chance, had they missed so, it would be their turn to get killed by mark in future, which was predetermined.
for visiting.
And with the shown potential exhibited by mark, the spectators had assumed that it wouldn’t be much before that time comes around.
Comming back to present, Levi gave a cough before opening her eyes half closed eyes wide open.
She was present in a seated position with her legs crossed against each other, supported by the two who had rushed to heal her.
She looked at the figure of mark that was fighting against two puppets all by himself, she sighed thinking ” Not bad indeed, at least he could tie them to that position! ”
She then turned her head back wards looking at her back ups, who were present in a terrible state. Their auras were dull, almost to the state where they could disappear any second from then.
Levi was able to see traces of acute mana deficit in their eyes, sidmon and clain though were aura lords, they pale in comparison to an aura king in terms of mana reserves.
Under normal circumstances levi would had already finished exiting her state of weakness, but when the array below her was competing against her, she had barely made pass quarter of her weakness and not recuperated thoroughly.
” Stop! ” She had paused for a brief second before exclaiming weakly ” Any more, both of you will enter mana deficit?
Either stop now or leave my party! This young mistress wouldn’t want to carry two useless baggage in her team, that would particularly drag her down! ”
Though Levi was particularly harsh on them, and a bit offensive on top it, they had understood the real intent behind it.
” Young miss levi, we can still hold for few more seconds to go, don’t worry about us, we are tough nuts to begin with! ” Sidmon who was the one with the weakest potential among the four exclaimed out weakly, while clain was just able to give a nod to his words, unable to mutter a word out her mouth.
Seeing the eyes that were not ready to give up, which wanted to prove that they weren’t all necessarily useless. Levi wanted to shook off them from her body, but yet the weakness wasn’t yet to be dissolved. ” Few more seconds! Just hold on until this damn weakness gets shook off! ” Levi bellowed internally.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Mark was hardly finding time to deal with these puppets, and the one that carried two large broad swords with it was giving a tough time to mark.
As the puppets were neither sluggish nor moving at a low speed despite their huge build.
With heavy armour like plates on top it’s body, they were moving as if they were some random cloths to begin with.
The weapons which they are carrying were neither light to begin with nor a thing that could be damaged easily.
Marks treasured blades, dead man’s blade, were hardly managing to make few scratches on top it’s surface, despite his hard effort in breaking it off to reduce the puppets attack power.
Slash!
A broad sword that was carried around by a puppet had managed to slide off the marks blade, and cut lightly on mark’s arm.
Blood that was comming out the wound, started soaking the robes worn by mark above.
Few other such shallow cuts following it were started to befall mark one after the other at regular intervals, that made his cloths wet with his own blood.
If it was just a single puppet, mark wouldn’t necessarily have to get wounded by the puppets.
But the two were nearly able to overcome their short comings and cover the holes made by the others, which imposed a huge burden on mark to begin with.
Smash!
Earlierly when mark got a shallow cut on top his forehead, blood which exited out the wound got filled into his eyes reducing his visibility.
A mace which was carried around by the other puppet he fought had smashed his future down to the floor below, leaving him extremely open for the blades to make a hit on top his body, which was basically left defenseless.
Though the mace hadn’t directly made a contact with his body, as it was blocked by the his blades as usual.
The poor visibility of his by then had put him in a difficult position and the shock wave from the impact had jolted his body a whole, smashing his figure to the floor below, defenseless.
His blades were separated out his hands for the first time in a battle, present few meters away from his body near the puppets, which were about to kill him any moment from then.
” Had my plans to get the essence from all the six puppets had backfired on me?
Had I absorbed the two and left for the next division with levi, would I still had the need to face a difficult situation as this?
And that levi, she still seems to have not recovered yet, would she survive if I die under these puppets.
These four followers without help can’t cross the line to begin with, and would soon face death if condition worsens. Unless they break open the core and escape to the resting point. ” Mark sighed internally.
” Spatial cover! ”
Two words that entered his ears had immediately brought his confidence back to him, his eyes were opened widely from the anxiety brough to his body. Since levi should had successfully recuperated for it to happen.
” Seems like like holding these puppets by yourself had been tough on you marky! ” Levi exclaimed out, with a huge smile on top her face, grabbing the swords of the puppets in her arms which were locked on earlier to kill mark.
