Chapter 47

At Least I Made the Bastard Flinch

Xavier burst into action before the Lord of the Endless Horde could make the first move. His soulkeeping reserve was full with almost two thousand souls, but there was no one around him that he could easily kill—the alleyway was deserted.

Part of him wanted to drop a fully infused Soul Strike at his D Grade enemy, but if that wasn’t enough, he wouldn’t be able to use Soul Block.

Several things happened all at once.

Xavier sprinted to the left, straight toward the wall of the tall skyscraper—the alleyway he’d run into had been a dead end, not providing much space to move. He had no idea what the Lord of the Endless Horde was capable of, but as the man wielded a sword, the last thing he wanted to do was face him in a close-up, melee fight.

As he moved, he cast Spiritual Trifecta on himself and Spirit Infusion into Soultaker. His Spirit attribute was currently at 4,687 points, and the power that rolled over him felt absolutely insane.

Not only that, his body moved so much faster that he wondered if his friends back at the castle would even be able to perceive his movements. Still, he knew it likely wasn’t fast enough. He needed better mobility—a way to get out of this alley.

Heavy Telekinesis! Spirit Break! Willpower Infusion! Soul Strike!

Each spell was cast with incredible speed and precision. His enemy hadn’t moved from where he stood. The man’s gaze simply tracked Xavier’s movements, a single eyebrow raised, the corner of his mouth twitching upward in amusement.

Then the first spell hit the man.

The Lord of the Endless Horde was pushed back two feet. His eyes widened. The amused smirk fell away. The raised eyebrow dropped. A look of wild confusion replaced it.

Yes! Xavier shouted in his mind. He’d half-expected the spell to do absolutely nothing. He may have been able to mow down E Grade enemies while he was F Grade, but he’d been a strong F Grade.

He had no idea where he stood now. He just had to hope that this sector was as weak as it seemed. That it lacked the advantages of others.

None of the enemies I faced were unique.

If they’d possessed titles, they’d been incredibly basic. And no one in this sector was old enough to be a Progenitor, for the System had been here long before any of them had been born, and the strongest Denizens in the sector ended up leaving to find power elsewhere.

Yet the Lord of the Endless Horde had remained.

He likes being the strongest here. I suppose I can’t blame him. Or maybe he feels he’s too weak to survive outside this sector.

Spirit Break hit next. Xavier wasn’t sure what to expect from that. He certainly didn’t think it would break his enemy’s body, mind, and magic.

Fwoooom.

The spell slammed into a barrier, one that had sprang up the instant after Heavy Telekinesis had hit. It made the Lord of the Endless Horde glow golden.

Xavier, still
