Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

Chapter 855 Nemean Lion's Rampage! Magicus' Defeat.

-----

I sacrificed half of my HP to activate the Special Ability that was born within Gaia's All-Purpose Creation Tool, an ability so powerful it can only be activated once every 24 hours, born from the fusion of several abilities together. I activated it while fusing it with my Spiritual Aura, the boost to all my Stats with each Spirit summoned further enhanced the power, all while I fused the gigantic Nemean Lion-shaped manifestation with hundreds of Lesser Dragon Spirits that had already been summoned.

 The result? More catastrophic than I imagined. The gigantic manifestation now resembled a half-dragon half-lion monstrous entity, made completely out of Spiritual Energy of many converged elements together. With a mighty roar, the titanic lion's jaws caught Magicus on a powerful bite, dealing tremendous damage against his body and soul.

"ROOOAAAR!"

CRAAASH!

The bite was strong enough to make Magicus scream in agony, his flames slowly dissipated, completely overpowered by the Nemean Lion's Manifestation, which was further enhanced because I made sure to imbue the Angelic Magic Powers I had gained from my Halo.

His body quickly fell from the skies, landing on the floor. The Nemean Lion was still biting and tearing him apart, before beginning to glow brighter than ever before. I quickly descended and created a powerful barrier using my Green Magic, Spirit Magic, and Divine Ward Ability together.

"[Divine Ward]: [Yggdrasil's Castle]"

FLASH!

I touched the ground before an explosion of light and demonic flames were to engulf us completely, light and wood combined together as they emerged endlessly from the underground, forming a huge castle made of living wood, covered on barriers of light.

BOOOOOMMM!!

The explosion happened a split of a second afterwards, I was barely able to make it in time. The light and the demonic flames engulfed it all, leaving the entire residence of the Magica Family completely set ablaze.

The smoke slowly dissipated, the attack alone would have easily one-shotted most Bosses below Level 180, and deal immense damage to anything below Level 250, I believe. So without a doubt, now that his HP was so low, it should had done good enough damage.

"Is he still alive?" Rita wondered, the smoke slowly disappeared, revealing the body of Magicus on the floor. "Oh?! He's done for?!"

"Impo… ssible…"

Magicus body was completely destroyed, all his bones seemed broken, his skin was so burnt that it had become as black as charcoal, his hair was half-burn, both of his eyes exploded, leaving behind empty eye sockets. And a few patches of infernal flames were spread around him.

Checking his status, it showed his HP was already below 1%, and it was reducing with every second, the combination of all my magic through the Nemean Lion's Rampage ended becoming an incredible technique, newly upgrade Gaia's All-Purpose Creation Tool was insanely overpowered.

"He looks like he's about to croak." Johanna commented. "Is everyone else okay?" Unbefitting of her personality, she quickly took a look behind her, finding the young knights that David brought being safe and sound.

"We're fine…" Sighed Patricia. "But that thing… Was that truly Lord Magica? I can't believe… He would go this far only because he was slightly ostracized by his lack of magical talent."

"Perhaps it was much worse than we imagined, Patricia…" Heshmerie seemed slightly pissed off that the noble turned himself into a demonic being. "It's a Noble Family that has specialized on magic for generations after all. But… Yeah, even then, that wouldn't justify what he did to his son and wife, that bastard."

"Enough." David said, stopping the red-haired and slightly reckless young man from speaking another word. "What happened is already in the past. They were already made into Undead long ago, we were unable to protect them, and this is all… My fault, I wasn't careful enough, I should have deployed knights here, I should have deployed detectives earlier, if only…"

"There's no point on blaming yourself…" Nieve said. "I suggest talking to him and extract him any information we can, so we can further learn about the Cult." Her body transformed back to her original appearance, scattering azure colored light around her.

"…" David clenched his fists, he seemed to feel really guilty.

"At the very least, no more innocent people died now." Jenny sighed. "If we hadn't come at all, can you imagine how many would have died? Try to look things through the brighter side of life, handsome." Jenny transformed into her humanoid form, patting David's shoulders.

"Jenny… I guess you're not wrong in that." Sighed David, giving a faint smile. "Thank you."

"H-Hey! Who are you acting so closely with?!" Asked Patricia angrily, quickly pushing Jenny away from David. "Don't act so casual in front of the captain!"

"Do you own him or something?" Asked Jenny. "Why do you care?"

"I-I… That's… Well…" Patricia started to act awkward, blushing a bit.

Leaving them on their own devices, with Mark and Rita at my side, we moved to greet the dying Magicus, his demonic body was beginning to disappear into ashes. I could still see the bright angelic light shining below his burnt skin.

"Y-You…"

Although he no longer had eyes, he sensed my presence, his Aura slightly growing stronger, only to fall and become weaker again. He couldn't seem to regenerate like before, the Angelic Light, the Spirit Energy, and the damage he sustained all inhibited his regeneration.

"Lord Magica…" I sighed, sitting next to him. "Why did you go so far? Was the bullying from the other families too much for you to bear? Was it enough to justify killing your wife and your son? Was it enough to justify turning into a demon?"

"…" He remained in silence. "You wouldn't get it… Years, after years, after years of mocking, of abuse… My wife never loved me either, she was someone forced to marry me… my son, when he was born… I… I was happy but he… contaminated by his mother, grew to hate me. I just wanted them to love me, to stay… by my side."
