Ascension of the Dark Seraph - Chapter 103
Chapter 103: Dark Angels Chapter 103: Dark Angels Fairy Hybrids or in this case, Dark Fairy Hyrbids are known for their adverse spells.
In fact, among the Supreme Houses-the Fairy Supreme House was the most versatile in terms of abilities-having the most amount of innate abilities gained from their bloodline, making them spell monsters.
Normal Hybrids would gain their first bloodline ability upon reaching the Acolyte rank.
On the other hand, Fairy Hybrids would awaken an ability the moment they awaken their own bloodlines.
Once they reached the Acolyte rank-they could gain three to five new abilities.
It was precisely why the Fairy Supreme House was incredibly strong.
Lucivar kept his body still, watching the two rotating daggers pointing at his neck.
‘She’s also of an Acolyte rank’ He pondered, sensing the energy these daggers emanated.
‘It wouldn’t be a stretch to say that she is a five-star Acolyte-rank Hybrid.
Even with my current state, I don’t think I could take her’ Just from the amount of ether the daggers were emanating, Lucivar deduced what to do.
And certainly, overpowering the woman was out of the window.
He’s fighting a real Hybrid with battle experience now, not students or academy hunters.
“Didn’t you say earlier that this is violent conduct?” Lucivar glanced over his shoulder, he was not smirking anymore.
“We are in a mall, many people are here, and you wouldn’t escape with a murder.
Do you really think you could afford to kill me?” “Hmph!” Maura scoffed.
“You forgot one important thing.
You can’t get arrested but I can, the privilege of working with Madam Callista, she has a lot of connections in the association.
One factor that you do not have” Lucivar nodded, Thalia did say that they moved back to the city because it was safer.
It was safer because of this, Callista knew powerful people in this city.
“If that is the case, can I at least defend myself?” Lucivar asked calmly.
“After all, I was only joking earlier to get my point across.
I saved Thalia and indirectly saved Elira, I reckon that I deserve a lot more than a knife to my neck” Upon hearing this, Maura squinted her eyes and paused.
She lowered her dagger as well as extinguishing the ether dagger before pulling away.
Lucivar rubbed his neck, checking to see if it was cut but it wasn’t.
“Talk, I’m giving you a chance to convince me that you’re not a threat,” Maura said coldly.
Regardless of her suspicion, what Lucivar said was right.
He saved the twins so at the very least, Maura is obliged to give him a chance to explain, his motive since as far as she was concerned, Lucivar might be sent by their enemies-and was told to earn the twin’s trust and sabotage them.
“I’m an opportunist,” Lucivar finally said after a brief contemplation.
Knowing he had only one chance, he chose his words with careful precision.
Maura has a short temper and that shows from her move earlier.
Follow new episodes on the "N0vel1st.c0m".
It’s best for him to not play around with someone like her.
Pivoting around to face Maura-properly, he continued, “I came from a slave city, all of this is new to me.
And as you might expect, when someone who’s only ever seen the bottom of the well finally glimpses the sky, it’s only natural for them to want to reach the soaring eagles” “You wanted a reward for saving Thalia and Elira?” Maura squinted her eyes.
She had taken the time to research Lucivar’s background and found no records of him.
It was clear that he came from a slave city from that finding alone.
Seeing that the threatening air around Maura was slowly melting, Lucivar nodded inwardly. He was telling the truth, he spared his attention to Thalia, and Elira because the opportunity hinted at by Loki led him to them, ‘Had it not for that-I wouldn’t give a damn about them.
In fact, I might even ignore Thalia that night and let her die’ Now that he knew the twins were from a powerful clan, he was going to use them.
Other than that, wanting something selfish would definitely lower Maura’s suspicion.
Anyone who saved others and risked their lives in the process would be quite suspicious.
“Yes, and if it’s possible, I wanted to meet with Madam Callista,” Lucivar continued, his eyes sparked-with an opportunistic light.
“She could be the one to judge me and to do that, she would need to meet with me personally, no?” Maura sighed, “Madam is not someone you meet easily, but I’ll deliver your message” “For now-I will trust your words but I hope you understand that I will still be watching you,” She said-before she took a step forward, looking directly into Lucivar’s eyes, so close that her fragrant rosy perfume-seeped into Lucivar’s nostrils.
“And also, if you purely only want benefits, don’t play on Thalia’s heart” Upon hearing this, Lucivar grinned.
“Does playing her heart fall to your professional ‘threatening’ description?” “No, not professionally…
but personally” “Ah…
I see.
I’ll try,” Lucivar said as he turned sideways.
“but I can’t promise you that” Just as he said that Lucivar came out of the emergency exit.
Maura who was pissed by his answer also followed him from behind, her face was sour.
Once again, she tried to stop Lucivar from leaving, her hand reaching for his shoulder.
But as her fingers grazed him, a loud, piercing scream shattered the air.
It came from a woman, startling both Lucivar and Maura-followed by a rising swell of frantic voices and panicked shouts.
Hearing this, Maura frowned, “A dungeon?
No, that can’t be, it’s not easy to pierce through the dimension here” Since they were at the mall, this scream of terror wasn’t normal.
More importantly, the dome surrounding the entire Sunhold City was not only, for protective measures against the threats from outside but also from the Crossers.
Another effect of the dome was thickening the dimension fabric inside the city.
Because of that, it’s not easy for a dungeon to open inside the city.
A part of the reason why Sunhold City could develop and is incredibly safe for everyone.
If the Crossers really wanted to attack the city, they would need to cough out at least a high-tier green dungeon-or even a purple dungeon.
Across the entire Light World, the left side of the world, there were only about eleven purple dungeons.
As for red dungeons, they were basically non-existent in this part of the world.
So because of that, big cities such as Sunhold City are very safe.
Immediately, Lucivar darted to the source of the sound, driven by curiosity.
He arrived at the circular lobby within half a minute-and was met with the sight of people, stopping to take a look at something.
Some onlookers were taking photos, or recording the scene while shaking their heads in pity.
Pushing through the throng, Lucivar peered at the source of the commotion.
Near the entrance, he spotted a squad of people dressed in identical uniforms.
About three of them were wearing a tight combat suit, and armed with firearms strapped to their body, and there was a pentagram mark on the back of their black gloves.
Out of these three people, two of them were holding down a man-while the other one was holding back a family of three, a mother with two children who were crying profusely.
“Don’t hurt him!
Don’t!” the mother cried, trying to push through.
On the other hand, the man who was pinned down looked up to her, trying to fight back.
But with a flash from the pentagram mark, he was electrocuted hard.
He was stunned-making it easier for the armed men to restrain him.
“Who are they…?” Lucivar mused under his breath.
Maura who was standing beside him was relieved when she saw this, she thought that it was a dungeon-but it was not, “Members of the Black Zenith Order-seem like they were able to capture another one.
Since three Dark Angels were here, that man must be quite strong” “Black Zenith Order?” “It’s a group of highly trained people to locate and exterminate Angel Hybrids, hence they’re called Dark Angels.
It was unsightly, I’m sure-but the Angel Hybrids had it coming for them.
Go back to Thalia, she must be searching for you” Upon hearing this, Lucivar’s eyebrows dipped into a hard frown.
Knowing that Angels were hunted everywhere-he should’ve expected this kind of thing, in a big city like Sunhold City.
But it was quite a sad scene, the Angel Hybrid was being treated in a rough manner in front of his family.
Just then, Lucivar saw the mother rushed to another man to the side.
From the looks of it, this man in a black trenchcoat led this squad of Dark Angels.
She grabbed his coat tightly, “Don’t hurt him!
He has done nothing wrong!” “Please…
if you let him be, I’m sure he wouldn’t do anything in his entire life!” She pleaded.
However, the man who was standing upright with a cigarette in his hand watched the mother with cold eyes.
He has no remorse behind his eyes, no pity for the broken family, “Stay out of the way or you and your children will be taken in too.
Be grateful that we only took him” Despite that, the mother became hysterical, begging the man to let her husband go.
Even her children were crying, both of them were still little, no more than eight.
It was then that the man’s expression twisted, gazing at the mother as if she were a pest.
“Stop pushing my patience…” He said whisperingly.
Having enough of her tantrum, the man lightly pushed her to the side-but the mother was thrown back, and slammed to the wall.
It seemed the man was a Hybrid, to someone flying like that would be impossible if he wasn’t.
Seeing this, the children ran towards the mother who was knocked out cold.
Both tried to wake their mother up but was futile.
On the other hand, the Angel Hybrid who saw this had his eyes opened wide.
He saw how his wife was thrown to the wall and lost consciousness.
Coupled with the sight of his children crying, the man’s eyes glowed with a peculiar light.
A surge of power climbed from within and his body exploded-creating a rippling shockwave that shattered the glasses in the area.
Both of the Dark Angels were hurled but their reflexes were on point, immediately drew their handguns and fired a couple of bullets.
Despite that, a barrier of holy energy blocked the bullets.
It sparked from a glowing rune on the Angel Hybrid’s forehead as wings grew on his back.
“Raargghk!
I’ll kill you!!” Flapping his wings violently, he gathered an immense amount of ether-and charged at the man.
But as he was about to reach the man, a bullet pierced his barrier and hit his forehead-whiplashing his head back.
One could see that the bullet wasn’t able to pierce his head but that doesn’t matter.
In a graceful and swift movement, the man stabs a special small and thin knife into the Angel Hybrid.
It was taken the shape of a cross-and the blade steamed against the skin.
Almost in that instant, the Angel Hybrid’s eyes widened before his wings went limp.
Gazing at the Angel Hybrid with contempt, the man leaned closer, “Your death comes today,” “By order of the Valerius Supreme House and the blessing from the Blood God”
