YM778.TV Chapter 696 Beam
"Damn... It was stronger than I expected... How much energy does this guy have?!" Ern exclaimed with a dazed look.
Whooooosh.
The Dormant Stalker unleashed some of his energy to protect Alice from such powerful pressure that she began to choke.
"He\'s so strong... It\'s like Wain..." Alice uttered while in disbelief.
It hurt her even to breathe, and yet she looked up to Gisle as a hero, as a role model. It was the second human that she had seen and it was critical that it turned out to be Gisle.
\'I thought Wain was the exception... but I guess I was wrong.\' Alice inwardly muttered while clutching her chest, \'Gisle reach such an incredible level, so... I have a chance too, right?\'
Whooooooooosh.
Among the thunderclouds appeared a bright white sphere that gradually increased in size. The amount of energy in it was so great that it rippled through the air for miles away.
"Use every defensive skill you have. That\'s my sincere advice." Gisle said in a calm voice, but his eyes were as cold as thousand-year-old glaciers.
Erza realized he was serious, so she instinctively took action. She let loose a golden flame in front of her, that gradually formed into a dense barrier of fire.
She didn\'t notice it, but then Gisle deliberately lowered the release of her energy to give her a little more time to prepare for this attack.
"Fine. That\'s enough..." Gisle whispered before clenching her palm into a fist.
Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.
There was a loud peal of thunder as a compressed beam of pure energy rained down on Erza, as though divine punishment. The dome that Aurora had set up tried to absorb all the energy as it vibrated, but in a second the dome shattered into tiny particles like glass.
Erza understood that this attack could kill her, but she still had no intention of leaving as she watched it approach her.
Whooooooooosh.
Suddenly a silhouette appeared in front of her with purple lightning discharging over its body. The silhouette extended two arms upward as two massive lightning spears emerged from them.
The beam and the spears reached each other as there was a deafening explosion of two energies. The magical circles on the walls were destroyed instantly as well as most of the arena disappeared.
"Fuck!" Wain exclaimed as a gray robe with a tight eye patch appeared on it.
He created a massive magic circle that completely blocked the purple and white flames of the explosion.
"Ahahahahaha! Unbelievable!" Ern exclaimed with an excited look, "Even though I couldn\'t fight Gisle, but it makes my blood boil! I\'ve never seen such a powerful attack!"
"Damn... The more I learn about humans, the more I realize how powerful they can be." Alas uttered while in disbelief.
"That\'s a delusion." Royal Spirit suddenly said, "Those two are just real monsters. I don\'t know how Gisle did it, but he has an abnormal amount of energy, as though he consumed thousands, no, several million souls of varying quality!"
"Hmm? Is such a thing possible? Even if he is a human and can quickly absorb souls, a find a million... is a difficult task for anyone." Alas muttered with a confused look.
\'Millions of souls?\' Wain inwardly muttered while looking at Gisle\'s silhouette that was among the settling dust clouds, \'Even if he absorbed that many souls, shouldn\'t he have reached Third Stage by now?\'
Wain did not understand how with so much energy Gisle had not yet revealed his Form, but then he remembered the words Gisle had recently said to Aurora.
\'I\'m just too good at hiding my aura.\' Wain said to himself as his eyes widened, \'Huh, it all makes sense to me now. Not only did he concentrate on training, he also used a tremendous amount of souls for himself and to create a katana, but he still hides his true power.\'
The dust slowly dispersed as everyone saw what had become of the training ground.
The explosion had destroyed everything there was but two small islands. On one stood Gisle with a calm loo, while on the other were Erza and Aurora, under a purple lightning dome.
"Is that enough?" Gisle asked with a tilt of his head as he stared at Aurora.
"Yeah." Aurora nodded before removing the barrier, "You showed even more than I wanted to see. Looks like you actually liked her."
Aurora shook the dust off her coat, headed for the exit, and said, "When you\'re ready to negotiate a partnership, come see me, now I\'ll talk to you as an equal. That\'s my promise."
Crackle.
Aurora walked out and slammed the doors.
Step. Step. Step.
Gisle approached Erza. She flinched as she blushed slightly as she thought Gisle would ask her if she was okay.
"Tonight." Gisle said with a serious look.
However, she heard it as all her expectations were shattered.
"What...?" Erza uttered while in disbelief.
Bam.
Suddenly Gisle\'s eyes darkened as he fainted and fell. Erza instinctively caught as Gisle\'s head hovered a few inches above the ground.
"Well, let\'s not get in your way." Ern said with a smirk on his face as he disappeared.
"Erza, good luck. Aren\'t you the kind of person who dreams of a strong man? This is definitely your option!" Alas exclaimed before turning into a golden beam.
Erza wanted to scream at each of them, but they were gone too fast for her to do so, so her gaze fell on Wain, practically the only one still here.
Wain nodded silently, went to Alice, picked her up in his arms, and just like Ern with Alas, left the training ground.
"Bastards!!!" Erza shouted with an angry voice, so it was very loud.
Even though Gisle was out, he frowned as it was painful for him and when Erza noticed it she stopped for some reason and started to do everything very quietly.
\'Damn... Is this guy really serious? Maybe it\'s really time for me to find a man that won\'t reject me?\' Erza inwardly muttered while looking at Gisle\'s face.
