BXBX NOVEL Chapter 117 - Goblin King´s Death
"Let\'s talk after everything is finished. I\'ll bring you back to your home and we can talk for the whole Sunday, alright Brat?" He asked and only now was Jason once again reminded that it was already 11 pm while the Goblin beast tide was still not completely over.
The Goblin King was probably still alive, somewhere and the magical and guardian-ranked Goblins and Orcs were ravaging inside the city, even if they were already on the losing side with their lives on the line.
Cyro-City would suffer a lot today but without Shane′s help, the whole city would be demolished or completely annihilated.
Even now the transmuted darkness mana inside the beasts, weakening their mana cores, injuring them as long as time passed.
Jason was curious about the darkness mana, Shane was using and it seemed like there were different kinds of darkness transmuted mana within him.
On one side, Jason noticed the shadow affinity he already used, while on the other side curse mana coursed through his mana, which astonished Jason.
Apparently having an affinity didn′t mean that all of us would be the same.
If a beast had a stronger water affinity, one would also receive a stronger affinity compared to others.
`What if a beast has an affinity to searing hot water, would I have the same affinity? It should be, right?` Jason asked in his mind and it seemed like he found out something new once again.
Turning his attention back to the battle once again, Jason observer everything with his mana eyes to study the Combat techniques used by the Magus and Grandmagus′s. While the Goblins and Orcs relied mostly on their instincts, which was also quite interesting to observe.
Nevertheless, just looking at them and the circulation of mana, gave Jason many insights on how to increase the mastery of his techniques.
As such he gained many benefits while observing the fights that the human side seemed to win by a huge margin.
Only a few dozen guardian-ranked goblins and orcs were left alive while some seriously injured magical-ranked goblin mages were throwing their last spells, demolishing a few buildings before they collapsed on the ground.
It seemed like a whole district was put at risk and demolished in order to prevent the goblin army from killing their way throughout the whole city.
With a few smaller buildings sticking out of the apocalyptic-looking landscape in front of Jason, he wondered how many innocent lives had been harvested with today′s incident.
His saliva felt sour and Jason could only sigh in regret. `Why am I so slow in becoming stronger....?`
What he saw, looked similar to the incident in Jiro city but much worse as hundreds of skyscrapers were completely overthrown and instead of standing high in the sky, they were flatly lying on the ground, while blood and human bodies could be seen everywhere.
It shocked Jason quite a bit, as he could cope with the sight of death more easily compared to a few months before.
Seeing the dead corpses of millions of goblins was shocking, but not something that caused him to throw up anymore.
Jason was only sad that so many humans died needlessly.
Once again the weakest layer that had to endure the grief in agony within the society, or rather Cyro-City.
Once all Goblins and Orcs were taken care of, he thought Shane would bring them back to the hidden valley, as Shane opened another spatial tear in front of them.
After the first two times, Jason could see the released mana from Shane more detailed, and it seemed like his mana had three main transmutations.
Two different types of darkness transmuted his mana, a blue touch could be seen in his mana, probably indicating a water soulbond and a mix between, golden, yellow, and orange which proved Jason′s theory.
Shane had a weak affinity to spatial magic and because of that, he could open spatial tears and move around however he wanted.
Previously he thought it was because Shane was simply too powerful and could negate nature laws but that wasn\'t the case and Shane could only partially do that because his mana was extremely strong.
That was also the reason why he could float in the air without caring about falling down.
His pure and dense mana was the cause!
Shane used his spatial affinity multiple times in succession and it brought them to a completely different landscape that was filled with dense and flourishing forest.
It was already dark and Jason couldn′t see much without his mana eyes.
However, the mana currents he saw and sensed, were still inferior to the natural mana vein below Cyro-City while it was still extremely fine and pure, and Jason wondered where exactly they were
His surroundings looked fresh while most trees were above 100 meters tall.
Looking around with his mana eyes, Jason could see that everything was seemingly alive and the mana radiated from everything was moving around vigorously, when he suddenly saw an outburst of destructive mana from far away.
Shane was flying straight towards this direction with Jason and the tied Orc dragged behind him. and the closer they came to the mana outbursts of two terrifying beings, Jason noticed more and more explosions.
The flourishing landscapes looked devastated and trees, rocks, and rivers were overthrown and completely demolished.
A huge crater with a radius of dozens of meters could be seen and the darkness suddenly lightened up in bright holy light when a sword beam soared through the sky, hitting something that was three times the size of the individual that fired the holy sword beam.
Upon further inspection, Jason noticed that it was Till fighting an over-dimensional bipedal beast.
Only now he could clearly observe the body of the presumed Lord-ranked Goblin King.
The Goblin King was more than five-meters tall and had the proportions of a normal human.
There were only a few things that were different to humans, which were its dark green color, the oversized arms, and the large hideous-looking head.
Its head was double the size of normal proportionate humans while multiple runes could be seen on its forehead, razor-sharp black fangs pierced out of its jaw
The Goblin King′s eyes were blood red, while Jason shuttered seeing them, as they released a deep and condensed killing-intent.
The cranked nose was over proportional and the mana it radiated, ravaged the surrounding two meters.
The Goblin King was bleeding out of multiple cuts but it looked extremely vigorous while Till seems to have been injured more heavily, as his leg seemed to have sustained serious burns.
This astonished not only Jason but also Shane who looked confused at TIll, before his gaze turned to the Goblin King, weirdly.
"Why is Little Till injured instead of the Goblin King? It should be the other way around?? And why is there a burn?" Jason heard Shane whispering and his mana eyes that were now constantly activated, even though it hurt noticed something odd.
Jason wasn\'t sure if that was the reason for the Goblin King to overwhelm Till, but he had to tell Shane in order to help his teacher.
As such he tugged at Shane\'s robe and before he even turned around to look at Jason whispered.
"The Goblin King is not cursed...and he has a strong fire affinity!" Jason said and Shane′s eyes widened in surprise.
TIll noticed the newcomers and shouted "THAT\'S MY PREY" and before Shane was even able to do anything, he took out the orb Shane gave him and activated the mana dome.
Jason already knew that TIll was prideful and it seemed that once Shane helped him, he wouldn\'t be able to accept this.
As such he announced his prey and activated the mana dome, which was completely useless against someone at Shane′s league.
But Shane understood the meaning and decided to not intervene in their fight.
If Till was about to die, he would help out, otherwise, Till could still activate the one-time use curse that was inscribed into the mana orb.
Jason looked at the respective mana orbs before his attention changed to the two Lord-ranked individuals mana core.
He noticed that TIll′s mana core seemed larger compared to the Goblin King′s, which indicated that he had more reserves and maybe even a stronger physique.
However, because Goblins were normally non-elemental beasts with a higher physical enhancement, Till′s larger mana core didn′t say anything at all.
Suddenly Jason sensed strong and familiar mana fluctuations from Till, which healed his burned leg within seconds.
It was the Greater blessed wolf′s healing ability and after he healed himself, he changed his weapons, which astonished Jason.
But after he saw what kind of weapon he took out, Jason understood what was going on.
"Soul Weapon" Jason whispered and Shane could hear him and he widened his eyes
`Are his mana eyes even capable to differentiate if its a mana- or soul-weapon?` he wondered but that could be found out later.
A huge white spear with a golden blade could be seen in Till′s hand and Jason was sure it was a unique soul-weapon due to the connections between the contractor and the weapon, he could clearly see.
It was much stronger than the connections between Seron′s weapon and Jason wondered what this could mean.
But what astonished him, even more, was that once Till injected his mana inside the spear, it began to glow and amplify the injected holy light mana by a few times, purifying it further.
Holy and Light energy were advantageous against everything evil beings and Goblins were said to be creatures created by evil due to their hideous and cruel nature.
Upon noticing the holy light getting a few times stronger within a few seconds, the Goblin King felt slightly restless and it lifted its war axes, releasing a blue burning flame that soared into the sky before it enveloped him and his weapons that shone brightly.
With this, Goblin King began to charge at Till.
Within an instant, it had crossed a distance of more than a hundred meters and Jason could only see a blue blur, while he was able to feel the surrounding temperature rising by a few dozen degrees.
Till also vanished from his spot and he was barely able to faintly perceive a white blur, charging through a dark green blur, before everything went that, with the white light that illuminated the devastated forest, vanishing, as a loud *THUMP* could be heard.
Jason couldn′t see anything within the sudden darkness and his mana eyes could faintly perceive the Goblin King′s mana fluctuations dimming, while a deep hole pierced decorated its chest.
