652 Magnus

Magnus knew that he was at a disadvantage against the Pontiff, but he refused to admit defeat.

"You're incredibly strong… However, it's not every day that I get to meet a strong opponent like you. I will not fall so easily! Entertain me!" Magnus roared as he used one of the Arcane Paths that he hadn't fully mastered. It was the Dark Arts.

Well, if Vale hadn't extracted his Cursed Flame, he would've certainly used that Alchemy Art and had a good fight against the Pontiff. 

Nevertheless, this allowed him to focus on other Arcane Paths!

This time, he decided to use his Dark Spells, hoping to gain an edge over his opponent. After all, his Dark Spells were the best when dealing with multiple targets.

Magnus chanted a series of words, and summoned a swarm of black crows.

"Kill them all!"
