Chapter 95
The black and red lava-like thick electric current shot out from the tip of Abel's wand and hit Laufey's body head-on.
Laufey raised his left hand in defense, the power of his ice authority forming a shimmering shield that absorbed Abel's attack. At the same time, his right hand conjured a massive spike of frost that morphed into a formidable ice hammer!
Boom!
The hammer struck the ground with a deafening impact, creating a deep crater. Abel's black smoke wings flared as he dodged away from the shockwave. He swung his wand again, aiming directly at Laufey.
Avada Kedavra
The dark green electric light sliced through the air, heading straight for Laufey. The Frost King sensed the impending danger, his eyes narrowing as they turned an icy blue. With a surge of power, he unleashed the ice authority, freezing the space around him and halting the dark green light just before it could reach him.
Laufey recalled his past battles, remembering the time he faced Odin thousands of years ago, wielding the Ice Treasure Box. Now, deprived of that power and having suffered greatly, he had waited for centuries to reclaim his strength. He was determined to defeat Abel and retrieve the Ice Treasure Box, as it was the key to restoring his former glory and crushing Odin once and for all.
But Laufey had not anticipated encountering such a formidable human mage in Midgard. Time was not on his side; if he delayed, the earth's supreme mage would arrive, and escape would be impossible. With that in mind, he resolved to unleash everything he had against Abel.
The space around them shimmered as it froze, and Laufey waved his arms, summoning thick, sharp ice spikes from the ground and surrounding buildings. They shot towards Abel like deadly missiles.
Realizing the imminent danger, Abel abandoned the idea of using the Diamond Heart Charm. He propelled himself upward, avoiding the incoming attack, but giant icicles erupted from the ground, blocking his path. The ground trembled as a massive iceberg emerged, demolishing buildings in its wake, while Laufey stood atop it, closing the distance.
The Frost Ring on Abel's left hand flared to life, and he slammed his fist down on the iceberg beneath Laufey, causing deep fissures to spread across its surface. The iceberg began to wobble, threatening to collapse.
This action drew Laufey's attention to the Frost Ring on Abel's hand. His expression darkened; he had always regarded the Ice Treasure Box and its power as his own. To Laufey, Abel was like a thief flaunting stolen wealth, which only intensified his fury.
"Die!"
Ignoring the instability of the iceberg, Laufey concentrated, blue ice light gathering in his hands and transforming into two spiraling blue-white flames that radiated a chilling aura of destruction.
Abel felt the air grow heavy as he noticed the space around him freezing. He had no choice but to confront Laufey's next attack head-on.
With narrowed eyes, Abel waved his wand, pointing it at Laufey.
Simultaneously, Laufey thrust his hands forward, and the two blue-white flames shot toward Abel, imbued with a deadly silence.
As they flew through the air, they shimmered like amber, substantial yet ethereal. Abel conjured a massive circular energy magic shield adorned with intricate runes, preparing to absorb the impact.
"Seraphim Shield Armor!"
Boom!
The icy blue flames collided with the energy magic shield, creating a dazzling explosion of frost and light. Ice flowers bloomed against the shield, but it held firm, absorbing the impact and preventing the flames from penetrating.
Boom!
With a final blast, the freezing cold light dissipated, leaving Laufey panting heavily, his breath coming out in white puffs. The attack had taken a toll on him, and to his surprise, Abel had withstood it.
For a fleeting moment, doubt crept into Laufey's mind. Perhaps it was time to abandon his quest for the Ice Treasure Box. But before he could deliberate further, Abel took action.
With a swift motion, Abel made his wand disappear and formed intricate seals with his hands. The black smoke that enveloped him flowed back like an inky cloak, creating a mesmerizing backdrop.
Between his hands, fire and electricity swirled, converging into two radiant crimson beams that crackled with golden lightning. Abel directed the beams toward Laufey with precision.
"Kama Taj Magic, Bossat Thunder!"
Boom! Boom!
Two golden-red bolts of thunder exploded in the air. Laufey attempted to dodge, but the blasts were too quick, and he stumbled, crashing down to the ground in a daze.
As Laufey struggled to regain his footing, a powerful hurricane whipped up around him, lifting him into the air!
"Kama Taj Magic, Vatum Wind!"
Caught in the tempest, Laufey fought to maintain his balance. He quickly summoned the ability to freeze space again to break free from the chaos, landing back on solid ground and creating distance between himself and Abel.
At that moment, Abel touched down on the remnants of the collapsed ice hills, their height matching Laufey's. He readied his wand, prepared for another strike.
But then, a thunderous roar split the air. Abel looked up just in time to see a silver warhammer arcing toward the town from above, its trajectory promising chaos and destruction!
