The Holy Priestess of Lightning lazily stood in the middle of the deep blue firestorm. She didn't even try to escape from the firestorm as if she wanted to see Raphael's face when she came out unharmed.
She wanted to wait for Raphael to exhaust himself first so she could launch a surprise attack and take him out at once.
Unfortunately, her condescending expressions soon changed. Her calm and arrogant face turned pale white as if it was a thin sheet of paper.
It didn't take long before she screamed in agony, feeling the terrifying heat that was burning her skin and her bones.
She was horrified! Her treasure hadn't helped her at all, as if it didn't recognize these blue flames as flames at all! As for her own barrier, it was destroyed right away;
In the blink of an eye, her entire body was on fire! She tried to escape from the firestorm but it was too late! She was locked inside, unable to leave! Even space was blocked inside this firestorm!
pαпdα-ňᴏνêι·сóМ She couldn't come out. Only her agonizing screams managed to escape the firestorm.
Even the Holy Lord of Flames was in disbelief! It had only been a few minutes since the battle started and the Holy Priestess of Lightning was already at death's door, screaming like a dying animal!
He wanted to save her but he didn't. He wasn't even sure if he could save her in the first place since her screams had already grown weaker as if she could die at any moment.
Instead of wasting his time to try and save her, he decided to use it for the better and attack Raphael when he was distracted by the woman.
He was not deterred by the fate of his comrade. He raised his hands and summoned a wall of flames that separated him from Raphael to hide him from the view. At the same time, he also wanted to give the impression that he was scared and not a threat!
He knew that he had to act fast. He closed his eyes and focused his energy. Suddenly, he opened his eyes and unleashed a massive wave of flames that engulfed the wall of flames, surpassing it to engulf Raphael who was on the other side.
The two locked in a fierce battle, each one trying to gain the upper hand. Unfortunately, it wasn't easy since they both used Flames! Even though their flames were different at the core, they were also similar which made the two of them the worst match for each other.
Their attacks were weak against the other, let alone the fact that they were both experienced in battles.
Raphael summoned a dark fireball, that looked like a pitch black sun ,that he hurled at the Holy Lord of Flames. The Holy Lord of Flames countered with a wall of flames that deflected the fireball at the last moment!
"You might've been strong against the others, but you're useless against me! I can hold you back as long as I want!"
The Holy Lord of Flames was taken aback that he couldn't kill Raphael ever with a sneak attack. However, it didn't matter. All he had to do was wait for the others to kill first. After they joined him, there was no way Raphael could survive!
Raphael also understood what this guy was planning! He wasn't taking a risk and only trying to drag the battle. If the Holy Lord of Flames seriously fought, there would've been many chances for him to kill him.
Unfortunately, the Holy Lord of Flames was a turtle, hiding in a shell, not revealing any flaws!
Raphael knew that he had to end the battle quickly. No matter what he had to do, he couldn't let the battle drag! The number of enemies for Gabriel were increasing with each passing second. There were over a million mages there now!
"Even if you hide in a shell, you won't survive!"
Raphael closed his eyes and focused his energy once again. He also brought out a pitch black crystal out of his pocket, placing it in his mouth.
As soon as he placed the crystal in his mouth, the veins around his neck popped up. It looked as if he was in pain, using something he truly wasn't capable of. However, he didn't care.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes. The flame in his left eye turned from deep blue to pitch black, as if Raphael was using something he never showed before.
The aura around him completely changed, as if he was an entirely different person! Moreover, some traces of Spatial Elements could also be felt in the black flames now that matched the aura of the crystal! Even though it was temporary, his flames did have a second element now!
Just like the Temple of Time used the Time Crystals to use the abilities of time, Raphael had used the Space Crystal. It was unclear where he found it from but it was so small that it looked as if it could break easily after a few uses!
Raphael didn't care about how precious this crystal was! The battlefield wasn't a place to think about the expenses.
While the Holy Lord of Flames was still maintaining his distance while regularly attacking to make sure Raphael didn't leave, he didn't realize that Raphael was slightly different now. He couldn't feel the spatial element in the flames.
While he was still hiding behind a flaming wall, he didn't even notice thousands of spatial Portals open behind him. More spatial Portals appeared above him and around him.
It was only after the space around him started cracking apart that he noticed something amiss. He turned around, only to be greeted by thousands of small Spatial Portals.
His face immediately turned pale but it was too late. Something akin to black flaming bullets shot out from each of the spatial portal around him!
Before he could even have time to cast a shield, all the bullets penetrated his body, leaving him filled with holes! A hole could even be seen in the middle of his forehead.
His expressions were blank as his body lost all its strength. He wanted to ask how it was possible but his throat had multiple bleeding holes, making him unable to speak.
The wall of flames disappeared while the Holy Lord of Flames dropped to the ground lifelessly.
Raphael stood alone within the blazing crater, drenched in perspiration and struggling for breath. He had triumphed in the conflict, but was aware that it was just one of many battles to come. In addition, the use of the crystal had drained him even further!
