The Dungeon Master's
Chapter 147 - Lucien Vs Trias
...Throne Room...
...Nightfall...
Shortly before Trias again swung his big hammer, Lucien's face was smiling widely.
‘The devil…. What's he thinking? Is he not aware that…. Wait!!’ Thought Trias in the heart.
Instantly, an extremely bright light emerged from Lucien's right hand. A very deadly skill for anyone.
“Extermination Ray!” Lucien.
The light almost hit Triassic's body if he didn't notice the discrepancy. But that was no problem for Lucien who was currently still flying in the air.
From his left hand, a magic [Fire Blast] appeared again which He pointed to the ceiling.
‘Duuuuaaaarrrr!!!”’
That big enough explosion knocked down all the ceilings in this room. The darkness of the night filled with starlight and the moon began to enter the throne room.
‘Is he planning to run away?! He should have realized that killing me by razing the ceiling would be useless.’ Thought Trias in the heart.
But without him knowing it, Lucien's main goal is to have star protection on his side. An effect of the Ancient Book he obtained from Eric.
[Astronomers]
Users of this ancient book would obtain skills related to the stars and sky. As for the skills gained :
[Stergazer]
[Passive Skill]
Effect: Increases all skill owners status by 10% when under the stars. The effect will be 20% when the sky is very bright and the stars are clearly visible.
[Blessing of the Night Sky]
[Passive Skill]
Effect: Increase the regeneration speed of Health, Mana and Stamina by 50% at night.
[Constellation]
[Passive Skill]
Effect: Improving the status of the skill owner depends on the constellations that are forming at night. The constellations will change every month. Limitation: The effect is only active if the skill owner can see the constellations formed.
Current effect: Capricorn Star Race. Increases the magic power of the ground element by 125% as well as Defense status by 85%. The protection of the Amaltheus Goat has given the skill owner a 10% increase in movement speed as well as a 12% increase in Attack Power and Magic Power%.
[Constellation Adjustments]
[Active Skill]
[Mana Consumption: 500,000]
[Cooldown: 30 days]
Effect: Performs the arrangement of the constellations visible in the sky. Skill users can change the constellations that look as they wish. The constellation will last for 1 night and will return to normal the next night.
Ancient Book: Astronomers have a very high dependence on the night sky as well as the constellations that form. Moreover, the Skill owner had to look at the stars directly in order to obtain their effects.
Even so, the Buff effect given is very large. For Lucien who from the beginning had a very high Status? Of course the result will be terrible.
“Fufu…. You were wrong for throwing me in the air, the Blacksmith King of Trias.” Lucien said with a laugh. His injured body seemed to be recovering from his [Regeneration] skill.
“I'm sorry. I thought you were an ordinary lowly Devil. But it seems like, I should be serious about fighting high-level Devils like you.” Said Trias while preparing to jump.
‘Duuaarrr!!!’
His leap caused the entire surrounding land to be smashed apart. In an instant, He had reached before Lucien and immediately swung his hammer. But now, the hammer had been wrapped in a burning fire.
Shortly before he hit Lucien, he directed his right arm to hold the blow. But now, his right hand had been encased by the mid-tier earth magic [Stone Skin] which would increase the Defense of a body part by 200% in a short period of time.
‘Brruuukk!!’
Lucien was thrown to the side. But now, he received no wounds at all because his defense was very high. The combination of the passive effects of his Astronomer as well as the constellations formed made simple earth magic like [Stone Skin] become extremely powerful. It can even be said to be too strong.
“No scratches yes?” Said Trias who was now standing on top of the ruined Palace.
“Fufu…. Before I tried to fight fairly without using this ability. But since you are not an ordinary human, then I will kill you without giving you a chance to fight.” Lucien said with a laugh.
‘I won't win if he flies that high in the air. Moreover, his magic ability that does not even require the casting of the spell..’ Trias in the heart.
“Consider this beautiful night for the last time! Blacksmith King, Trias!” Lucien shouted loudly.
On both palms, there were two red and green magic circles. A magic [Incineration] as well as [Wind Storm] that at the time of use would simultaneously increase the power of fire and its speed significantly.
Not only that, next to his bat wings it appeared dozens of other magic circles. Everything is yellow and is magic [Stone Volley].
Everything leads to Triassic.
‘Keeping on me from above the sky, knowing that I could not fly…. I could not believe that he had only been holding back his power. I think this is the end of me.’ Thought Trias inwardly as he prepared his giant shield. He placed the shield right in front of his body.
‘Ttraaang!! Whoa! Tttraang!!’
The burning rain of stone destroys whatever it pleases. Everything began to melt and disintegrate due to its overpowering power. The entire magnificent Palace began to disintegrate including the garden on the North side.
A few minutes have passed....
Even so, the Triassic Shield still appears to stand firm. It showed the toughness of the shielding material it was wearing.
Soon after, Lucien realized that he would not be able to penetrate the Triassic's defenses. Therefore, he immediately showed his cruelty by taking the entire population of the city hostage.
Lucien slightly shifted the direction of his attack and little by little began to lead to the residence of the residents.
Instantly, Trias began to speak.
“Devise. Can I ask you something?” Trias asked as he survived the hail of flaming rocks.
“Fufu…. Begging forgiveness? Too bad to be rejected!” Lucien replied immediately.
“If I give up my life, will you and your Master forgive the entire population? Are you going to spare all the surviving Soldiers?” Trias asked in a loud voice without the slightest hesitation.
But now, that gigantic, seemingly indestructible shield started to redden. The shield had received too many strikes and high temperatures from Lucien's flaming rocks. Little by little, the shield began to crack and melt.
“A interesting word. Although I cannot answer it without asking my Master directly…. But I am sure that my Master will definitely answer ‘Of course, I will spare them all’ in such a tone.” Lucien said while mimicking the speech style of his Master, Eric.
Lucien began to smile widely as his plan worked. In this way, killing the Triassic King won't be too difficult.
Hearing Lucien's words, a faint smile appeared on Trias' old face.
“Thank God. Then I will gladly give up my life. Please one more time, forgive them.” Said Trias while throwing his shield that had been shapeless again. He appears to be standing quietly while using his hammer as a focus.
"Then get ready to die." Lucien's reply was brief.
A moment after, Lucien's hail of flaming stones hit Trias' body directly.
Hundreds of stones began to shatter the thick armor worn by the Triassic.
‘Ttraang…. Ttaang...’.
The sound of collisions between the stone with the armor, as well as the various parts of the shattered armor that fell down below sounded quite loud.
Until in the end, the flaming stone tore the body of the Triassic's stock slowly.
1 mins….
2 mins….
There's no sign of Triassic death. He was still standing upright even though his body had been seriously injured. Blood poured from various parts of his body. The fiery hail also did not stop even a little.
As if….
‘Is the Man's body much stronger than his armor?’ Lucien thought to himself.
Until at the end. After 5 more minutes of unilateral attacks given by Lucien, there was a wide smile from the face of the Triassic King.
Simultaneously, his body started to fall on the ground. Slowly, her body began to turn into an extremely beautiful white light.
But unlike usual, Lucien who saw him did not smile at all.
“I will give you great respect, O Blacksmith King Triassic. If you will, I believe you are able to fight me in the air with your incredible leaping power. But for the sake of protecting your people..” Lucien said to himself.
Under the starry sky, there was a figure of Lucien who was seen bending his body to someone other than his Master.
At least, that is the respect He can give him.
