The necromancer's attack did not stop. His summoned zombies continued to surround Cygnus but they couldn't scratch him. Even the skeleton claws he summoned weren't able to scratch him.
He was dancing amidst the bones and black blood as he swung his death scythe. He was even twirling and laughing while doing so. He started to jump and use the zombie heads as a step to reach the skeleton claws and destroy them with only one blow.
The necromancer used his three headed dragon to aim and shoot at the jumping man but all of its attacks were blocked and dodged. Cygnus even used these attacks to destroy some of the skeleton claws. He would position himself in front of the claws and when he felt that a magic attack was coming he would timely dodge to the side and let the attack hit the skeletons. He did this a couple of times but it did not bother the necromancer.
As long as there was a negative energy in the air, he wouldn't mind losing those skeletons and zombies because he could easily replenish them. He didn't blink and summoned even more zombies to deal with Cygnus but it still proved to be futile. The master easily dealt with them and when he got bored by the same attacks, he burned them all with one attack.
The whole ground that was covered by a horde of zombies lit up into blue blazing flames and incinerated them. All the magic circles that summoned the skeleton claws had swords thrusted into them which broke them into pieces. He them jumped up and thrusted himself towards the necromancer.
Cygnus made a 360 degree turn with his scythe and successfully beheaded the dragons once again. He then landed on the ground as his scythe disappeared. He turned around and looked back at the necromancer.
"Is that it? You were able to reanimate a chimera but all you sent to me were those zombies and claws? Are you actually mocking me?" Cygnus spoke with a hint of mocking with it.
"No, I am not, that's why I decided to use this." He raised the lance and brought it down with the tip facing downwards.
The tip of the lance hit nothing but a magic circle appeared below it. It was huge and spanned the entire forest. Slowly a large skeleton appeared and when it fully came out, it turned out to be a dragon.
The dragon, which was only made of its bones, roared. The roar filled the entire forest and even reached the town nearby. The people were startled and ran towards their homes to take cover. They were aware that that sound did not come from a regular monster.
Cygnus grinned, "That's more like it." He floated in the air and faced the monstrosity in front of him.
He used his blue flames but it did not have any effect on it. He then tried using his black lightning but the dragon bones remained unscathed. He narrowed his eyes and used his wind storm but it still had no effect. Even his ice magic wasn't effective against it.
"You won't be able to defeat it that easily." The necromancer spoke without any twitch on his face.
"Is that so?" Cygnus placed his fingers on his chin as if he was thinking.
While he was caught up in his thoughts, the dragon was already preparing his dragon's breath. The concentration of mana that was forming before its mouth was colored white. By how the wind hummed and the ground shook, it was an attack with a goal of destroying its enemies in one shot.
The white beam directly hit Cygnus who did not even bother to dodge. Ezio and Isaiah were wide eyed as they saw the man not moving from his spot and was still thinking. Both of them shouted at the same time but all they received as an answer was a smile.
The beam hit Cygnus. The attack even created a line of deep crater on the path it took. The trees around the crater were burnt and destroyed.
Ezio was trembling after the beam hit his master and he wanted to go there and help him but he decided to not go. He knew that he was only getting in his master's way so he watched the fight in a prickling place. He already saw how the master survived that lance attack, so he believed that the beam wouldn't kill his master and yet despite that, his fists were still tightly clenched.
The beam slowly subsided and disappeared and so did Cygnus. What was left behind was only a black spot on the ground where he was supposed to be standing. The dragon let out another roar at its success.
Ezio fell kneeling to the ground when he did not see his master. He tried to look around but saw not even a shadow of him. His whole body trembled in anger and sorrow that a gate appeared behind him.
"Don't be reckless!" Isaiah's eyes widened when he saw the gate.
He tried to reach out towards Ezio but he was too late. The man was already gone and appeared above the necromancer. Before his scimitar could even reach the enemy, a lance already intercepted his movements
At the last minute, Ezio twisted his body and evaded the lance's tip. His body fell into a gate as he appeared again behind the necromancer but the same thing just happened. He knew that he was being reckless but be just couldn't forgive the man who did that to his master.
He tried his best but it proved that his best was not enough. He was easily subdued and was on the brink of death because of the wounds and blood he lost. Ezio was panting really hard as he looked up at the necromancer who did not even mobilize his dragon to deal with him.
"Why are you trying so hard and even trying to be a hero?" A voice suddenly spoke beside him.
Ezio immediately looked to his side and saw that it was his master. He didn't die and his body was intact. He was wearing his usual smile.
"Did you really think that a mere dragon could bring me down?" Cygnus chuckled and shook his head.
He looked up but the necromancer's face remained the same. Cygnus stood up from squatting down as he slowly made his way towards the enemy. Every step he took made the entire forest shake. From that moment on, Cygnus started to show a glimpse of his power
The dragon faced Cygnus and released his dragon's breath. This time Cygnus used his bare hand to stop the beam. His palm faced the beam then he closed his palm and easily negated the dragon's power. He swiped his hand in the air and a sharp whistle echoed in the air.
The invisible force collided with bones that kept the dragon moving and destroyed half of its body. The sharp whistles came one after the other and slammed on the dragon's remaining bones before none of it was left. This same invisible attack made its presence known to the necromancer who tried his best to defend from it.
The necromancer was pushed back and forth by the force as black blood started to stain his body and the ground. He tried to use his lance to at least block one but the force only broke his lance. He even used the negative energy in the air to cover his body and lessen the impact but he was not successful.
"Do you still think that you can defend against me?" Cygnus appeared in front of him and made a roundhouse kick that sent the man flying.
The necromancer's body hit the ground hard and created a crack on the ground where he landed. A black sword followed him and pierced him through. It successfully pinned him down which made Cygnus laugh.
"No matter which world I visit, all necromancers are the same. Weak and only hides behind their pets but you were different." Cygnus bent down and looked at the pinned man.
"You don't need to flatter me." The necromancer was unmoved then his answer was followed by skeleton claws that appeared below them.
The claws took away the necromancer while Cygnus needed to jump back in order to not be caught up with the skeleton. The sword piercing the enemy disappeared but before they could get away the skeleton froze mid-air then it broke. Something squeezed it but they couldn't see what it was.
Something wrapped itself around the necromancer's feet and started to swing and slam him hard on the ground. The area shook every time it slammed him down. Ezio was speechless at what happened and before he knew it, he was already back at the place where he was hiding.
The necromancer was slammed down once again and several swords appeared above him. These swords pierced his body at the same time but he did not make a sound. After that, Cygnus went to where he was and held one of the swords in his hand.
"So tough," he mumbled. Ripped was the sound that dominated the air.
At that moment, Cygnus has already removed the sword and at the same time the necromancer's right hand was separated from his body. He only looked at the person who did it but he did not comment. They silently stared at each other before Cygnus grinned and removed the swords one by one.
