System vs Rebirth

Chapter 1113 Noel vs Spider (2)

"Three Purity Swords."

Noel released three strikes in a single swing. The first strike went to the left leg. It was fueled by his emotions to become strong enough to withstand the weight of that leg.

The second strike flew to the right leg. After getting infused with the ice element, it would produce a power that wouldn't lose against the first strike.

The last strike went straight to the spider's body. For this one, he could use his fire in normal cases, but since he couldn't, he just relied solely on the Divine Slash.

The first and second strikes erupted at the same time. The first strike was fueled by Disgust, which turned into a blunt attack but got a tremendous increase in power. The strike actually knocked back the entire leg, causing the body to slightly tilt back.

The second strike froze a portion of the leg, and the shock wave it produced sent the leg flying while making it numb.

Without the two legs, the spider couldn't stabilize its front body. And that was where the Divine Slash struck it.

Boom!

The Divine Slash actually exploded before it reached the spider.

'As expected, that's not enough, huh?' Noel frowned, knowing that the spider had released a bit of its spiritual energy to form a barrier that blocked the Divine Slash. If he had at least increased the power with his Undying Flame, he would have injured the spider.

Nevertheless, the spider got knocked back and couldn't use the front legs for a few seconds.

Before they recovered, Noel turned around, looking at the demons around him. He jumped toward them.

Roar!

Roar!

The demons were warning each other and trying to stop Noel and somehow survive. The spider also shot out some webs in order to stop him.

Unfortunately, Noel had prepared a few things to deal with them. In fact, Anna was doing the same thing.

Both of them took out several rune cards and tossed them into the air.

"Go!"

The Rune Cards had Meteor Rune drawn on them. They all produced the lump of energy and shot it at the demons.

A series of explosions shook the area. Anna had skillfully directed them at the concentrated spot, killing more than three hundred demons at once.

Noel also did a similar thing. But due to the demons being scattered, he only killed around two hundred demons with those runes. Still, the fact that it didn't require any spiritual energy to kill those many demons had proven the power of Rune Cards.

Noel saw the incoming webs and simply leaped away. In the end, the web had been stretched so far that it ended up splashing on the ground and hitting a lot of demons near the target, killing them.

At the same time, Noel waved his sword, killing more demons with his Sword Transmutation.

The spider couldn't believe it. Noel actually managed to kill half of the demons while fighting against her.

If this continued, the entire left group would be decimated. There were some Superior Demons left, which should be enough to stop Noel for a bit.

"Scree!"

The spider ordered all the demons in the area as her two legs recovered from the damage earlier.

The demons charged at Noel, disregarding their own lives.

"Huh?" Noel frowned. He waved his hand to the right as the Sword Transmutation claimed yet another fifty lives.

However, the demons continued approaching. By the time he released another strike, the Advanced Level Demons and Peak Level Demons had actually joined hands to form a barrier as if to block Noel's attack.

Unfortunately for them, they had been doing this the whole time. However, the result remained the same. The Sword Transmutation cut down their barriers, along with the demons behind them.

The demons didn't give up. More than three hundred demons released their attacks into the air as it gradually fell down in a parabolic movement.

Noel wasn't that bothered by these attacks.

The strength of his spiritual energy alone could disregard any attacks from Advanced Level Demons or below. Just like the spider, he released a burst of spiritual energy. It looked like a normal burst, but it actually contained a lot of concentrated spiritual energy.

They all hit the incoming attacks and caused them to explode.

He did the same thing as the spider that used its own spiritual energy to create a shock wave that was capable of destroying a Spiritual Barrier Rune.

However, the Superior Demons were waiting for that exact moment. Since Noel had just released his burst, he would have a hard time fighting them, especially if they came from four separate directions.

Even the spider had sent forth the two front legs again.

This way, Noel was completely surrounded. Even the Three Purity Swords wouldn't allow him to block everything.

This was what Anna meant by not being able to protect him. Fighting several thousand demons while still handling an Ancient Demon was simply a suicide.

Except for one thing. Noel had distanced himself from the spider. Unlike the previous time, where the spider could come from two sides, with their current position, the spider had no choice but to reach him from the front.

Noel smirked, waving his sword at the two front legs.

Divine Slash.

The sword strike flew forward. The spider released her own spiritual energy to block the Divine Slash, but the Anger Emotion and the Ice Element flared up. The ice element froze the spiritual energy and opened up the path for the sword strike to reach the spider's legs. At that time, the emotion exploded, slicing the spider's legs at the same time.

"Scree!"

The spider was wailing in pain as the Divine Slash actually cut the center of its legs and maintained that trajectory for a while, causing its lower legs to actually get split in two.

The legs remained intact, but there was tremendous pain just using them to stand. With this attack, Noel managed to seal the spider's jump. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

However, this decision also came with a cost. Noel had used everything to hurt the spider, so the four Superior Demons could hurt him or even take his life.

Roar!

The Superior Demons knew that they shouldn't waste this chance. If it meant sacrificing their lives, they should drag Noel down with them.

Unfortunately for them, Noel had been waiting for this. He couldn't use another attack, but that was fine. After all, he could use something else.

Rune Cards floated on top of his palms as each card flew in different directions, creating a barrier that once protected him during his advancement.

"Now. What are you going to do?"
