Victoria Vs. The Inferno Demon Pt.3 (Last)
Looking at Heliogabalus now, Victoria felt the temperature of the room increasing and the air was so hot and thick around that she couldn't breath properly.
*Heavy Breaths*
Sweat was sliding on her skin while the skin was turning red due to the high temperature. Everything around Heliogabalus was melting even the floor under him was melting into lava.
His skin was in the color of coal with lines of lava scattered randomly on his body with two lines of lava running from under his eyes.
His hair and beard were now black, and his pressure was so terrifying and imposing that if not for Victoria's will and determination beside her power she would have fainted from the pressure.
Now looking at the dead body of Lya, she was so worried that this high temperature would affect her body making it melt or something as the temperature was really unbelievable and if a normal person was to stand under such temperature he/she would have melted right away.
So immediately, Victoria used her ice element to get ride of the heat and put an ice barrier around Lya's body to maintain her temperature.
Then she looked back at her enemy with eyes that were so cold and contained unimaginable amounts of rage but at the same time she was so cool and collected.
Which was so contradicted, as rage makes anybody lose control while coldness and coolness makes the person calm and collected.
Two opposing elements were running in sync inside her body at the moment and she was in control of them.
Both looked at each other before they vanished from their place and appeared at the center of the room with their weapons connecting with each other.
Victoria who didn't use any weapon from the beginning was using one right now and it was a katana made from ice.
The reason why she used such a weapon was because when she saw her husband practicing with the katana she became fascinated with how he dealt with it and how he handled it in such a very mesmerizing way, it was so beautiful yet deadly and dangerous in her eyes. She wanted to be like that as well, so she asked him to teach her the way of sword and how to handle a katana.
She was a fast learner and Austin taught her the basics and the techniques to fight with it.
Clang!
Both opponents were fighting in a very high tempo and fast movements that could put the fastest swordsmen to shame.
Heliogabalus using his flames to boost his speed and Victoria using ice to do the same as well.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The sounds were heard and the sparks were flaying everywhere and with every connection between both of them, the attacks become shaper, stronger, deadlier, more dangerous, faster and faster.
The place around them was turning into a mess due to their attacks with burnt walls and floor and frozen walls and floors.
Heliogabalus in this form he can't use any techniques like those he used before as he in this form he was akin to the incarnation of flames burning anything that got in contact with him.
His strength, speed, vitality and dexterity and all the other attributes were maximized in this form, so he was nearly unstoppable.
But Victoria didn't care about any of that and just wanted to kill that bastard in front of her that killed her sister.
Lya was close to Victoria as well as the other women as well and losing one of them the others would be so sad and Victoria who didn't believe what happened in front of her eyes was so desperate and wanted all of that to be just a dream but reality hit her hard.
She nearly lost control if not for remembering her husband's words about not losing yourself to your emotions no matter the situation.
So she immediately became calm but she was so angry that she wanted to cut Heliogabalus to shreds or burn him to ashes or turn him into an ice coffin.
Victoria fought Heliogabalus with faster speed and more power but he easily overpowered her and deflected all her attacks turning them useless. He didn't speak and just attacked her with the intention of killing her and turning her to ash.
Spinning the helbard in his hand, he made a very sharp horizontal slash that made a sharp line in the air made of concentrated flames.
Victoria tried to block it with her weapon but her sword was broken upon contact and she was sent flying back due to the impact.
Although the slash was so sharp and deadly but due to trying to block with her sword it gave her the time to cast a very strong ice barrier around herself to protect her.
BOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!
She crashed into the wall breaking it the process along with the barrier that was around her, but it was useful to her as it protected her body and there wasn't any fatal wound on her.
"*Cough* *Couch*..."
She coughed some blood because the impact was strong and there was blood coming from her head and sliding on her face and left eye.
It wasn't deep or fatal so it was okay. She wiped it and spat out some accumulated blood and stood up slowly.
She knew if this continued like that she would die for sure and her death wouldn't be something heroic as she would just turn into ash and fly in the air as the wind blew.
She didn't have enough mana to use to cast some high spells but she could cast one last high spell by what she had of mana in her reserves but the wouldn't be enough for the spell in her mind so she would use additional source beside the remaining mana. Which is...her life force. She will burn it and convert it into mana. It won't take much of her life force, she thought so.
Thinking of something, she sighed suddenly while breathing heavily.
'Although it's not complete yet and don't know what will be the consequences but I don't have a choice as at this rate I would die. So I gotta try what I could.' She thought before walked out of the broke wall and standing in front of Heliogabalus with some meters separating them.
He didn't move for some reason while she was thinking of how she would deal with him but then suddenly he smirked.
And watching this smirk she knew that he didn't make a move because he was sure of victory, he knew that she couldn't do anything in this situation, he overpowered he by a great margin at this point.
Victoria's eyes glowed in ice blue suddenly before icy blue mana surrounded her and the temperature suddenly dropped by several degrees freezing the floor and the air around her.
Heliogabalus didn't move as he waited for last desperate attack from her.
She didn't care and just prepared the spell she extended both of her hands forward aiming at him and suddenly a big blue magic circle appeared in front of her before the circle glowed brightly before suddenly it disappeared surprising Heliogabalus as he expected some big attack judging from the energy around her but seeing this he became disappointed and prepared to attack her and kill her with one single slash of his Helberd, at least she wouldn't suffer when dying.
But then he noticed something, from where the magic circle disappeared a tiny blue snowy ball was floating, then this tiny ball suddenly began to descend slowly toward the floor.
Although it was somehow unimpressive but Heliogabalus felt a sense of danger from this ball. His instincts screamed that this ball is so dangerous and he should be careful, but how he the splendid and glorious Flame Lord and Inferno Lord back down from such attack?
How can he be afraid from such a tiny blue snowy ball that he can just dissipate it with a flick of his finger?
His pride was more than that and that was his fetal mistake.
Because in the next second when the ball touch the floor a very thick, smooth and soft sound of a bell was heard before in the next moment.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!
A very huge explosive beam was shot from the place where that ball descended on. The beam was nearly white with a hint of snowy blue. It was so big that it swallowed half of the room along with Heliogabalus Gaap.
[One Drop of Neil]
The beam froze everything in its way, it went beyond this arena to the outside freezing it as well.
The explosion was so huge that everyone in the other arenas heard and felt it as well because once the beam was shot, everyone felt the temperature around them dropping by several degrees that the area around them began to freeze.
After 10 minutes, the beam slowly dissipated until it disappeared leaving a frozen lands behind.
The ice won't melt even if you used the highest grade flames in the whole world and realms. It was this type of attack.
Victoria who was the cause of this attack looked at the frozen Heliogabalus that suddenly was broken like a glass and flew in air as the wind blew.
He died.
*Heavy breath*
Victoria knelt on her knees while breathing heavily.
Her hair became white and her eyes turned snowy blue that was nearly white.
Everything around her was forzen and she was in the middle of it.
She slowly looked back at the only spot that wasn't frozen where Lya's body was.
Her barrier was still around her so it was okay, although she was sad she died but it was okay now, she killed the one who did this to her but also she knew that her husband would revive her because he had the ability to do so.
But now looking at herself, she smiled sadly.
"I think this is the end? Didn't think that it will take this much. Well, it was nice to experience such a happy life with such a great a husband and such good sisters. Even if he tried to revive me, it would be useless because that attack took nearly all of my life force and the rest isn't enough to keep me alive, once my life force diminish no revival spell will be effective." She said with heavy and sad voice before she collapsed on the ground and slowly closed her eyes.
Everything around her turned black.
Suddenly a figure appeared in the place and walked toward Lya's body that was surrounded with a barrier and wave of her hand the barrier broke.
The figure touched the body of Lya and in the next moment her body glowed and disappeared, then the figure walked toward Victoria and knelt beside her.
"You shouldn't have said such words, you know what he is capable of." The figure said in a melodious voice before it touched Victoria's body that also glowed and disappeared in the next moment.
"Haah, let's regroup with the others."
