The Darkness Metal Manipulation
Chapter 32's

In the city of Larkxa. There was a magic barrier that covered a sizable area.

Outside the barrier, many people were swarming about what was happening.

The knights and adventurers guarded the sides of the barrier, and the healers who were treating the wounded after coming out from within the barrier.

Inside the barrier there was not a single building in sight, only empty land and a few people.

Those people were in a defensive position due to the magic that destroyed the entire surrounding buildings. And not far from them, there was an all-white spirit who was on the side of a woman.

They were looking at the black object in front of them, it was round with a size that was quite large. Then it began to open revealing a boy with black hair, black eyes and black clothes with a white pattern.

"I didn't think you'd level this area with the ground, even the dead adventurers you destroyed. Don't you think their families want to see the bodies of the people closest to them one last time?." Said the black-haired boy, he is Zyden.

"Well, come to think of it, spirits do not have families or blood relatives to look at last. So it's natural, they don't know what it's like to be left out. Aren't we?" Zyden tilted his head.

"Shut up!" The heavy, delicate voice typical of an adult woman answered her. He is Ritta, a spirit with white hair and clothes. The opposite color to the child in front of him. "You have no right to speak." Further.

"It's a good thing that people have been evacuated past that protector. Otherwise, I'm sure there's a lot of casualties." Zyden said casually.

"I said SHUT UP!" Ritta shouted and prepared his weapon. "You're a saint who's already a demon, don't deserve to say that." Ritta is serious.

"Hm... A saint? A devil? Are you talking about me?" Zyden said astonishedly. "I am not a demon in this world, though many say so. But.. a saint? I just heard that. Haha." Continue laughing.

"That's no joke, Devil!" Ritta.

"We'd better finish this." Zyden. "I have a bad feeling here for a long time." Continue muttering and preparing to attack.

Once again Zyden lunged, but this time there was a small flash of lightning around Zyden. Then suddenly Zyden disappeared from his path making everyone shocked including Ritta.

Ritta searched for Zyden's whereabouts and found Zyden swinging his sword right at Nika's neck.

Ritta held back Zyden's sword with her staff, then she brought up the wind in her right hand and pointed it at Zyden.

'bomb'

The wind hit the ground causing Nika and Kenneth's group to bounce. While Zyden jumped up dodging the wind. While still hovering above, Zyden pointed his hand at Ritta.

'bam'

A black thing appeared suddenly along with Ritta tilting her head to the side.

'what?, ...has he just avoided it?' thought Zyden was shocked and moved away.

Zyden created metal right in the head of Ritta just like when fighting bandits. But who would have guessed, even such a surprise attack could be avoided by Ritta so easily.

It also left Zyden speechless, and his face showed a sense of surprise that could be seen clearly.

'how could he avoid it? Am I not fast?' thought Zyden.

As Zyden was still in his shock, a wisp of blade-like wind headed towards him. He blocked it with metal and directly lunged as the wind and metal disappeared.

Black smoke enveloped Zyden as it was crashing. Ritta also did the same, Ritta enveloped her body with mana and prepared to clash with strength.

The two of them swung their respective weapons and 'ka-boom'.

A huge explosion appeared causing a very bright light.

The explosion spread throughout the surrounding area even destroying the protectors of the adventurers and ravaging the city.
