After a long time Jay had finally seen it a big wall. Where even after striking multiple times his power was less.
Jay pondered about his strength. Was it so low that he couldn't handle an archangel and gained a little bit of respect for the Foundation for facing monsters like that.
But the question was how do they kill God's. If Jay had such difficulties taking one down how do they face an entire army of them.
These were the thing Jay pondered as he made his way back to Phoenix.
Jay finally saw the battleships and landed on the starboard.
Where Phoenix waited for Jay.
Phoenix :
Status report soldier .
Jay :
Phoenix Cleft, I have carried out my responsibility. I have provided intelligence. And successfully completed the mission. Also there's a huge fire which will spread around the island. So take measures आग once.
Jay tried to leave for the mainland but Phoenix interrupted.
Phoenix :
You are not done yet. The pirates are still at large. I have a massive fleet and submarine surrounding the island.
But there is a problem.
Once they take hostage things will get difficult.
Jay :
So what you want me to do now.
Phoenix :
Two things : Spend money and force them. Gather as many revolutionarues as you can and launch a campaign and finally break the Heavenly barrier. And evacuate as many as you can.
Jay :
That's four things at once.
Jay's phone rang.
You have leveled up.
You have leveled up
You have leveled up.
All stats have increased by 72
Jay :
How do I break the barrier?
Phoenix :
That barrier's been there for centuries. Just give it a good blow and it will go down nice and easy.
Jay :
Once everything is done the treat's on you.
Phoenix :
Would be my pleasure.
Jay took off from the ship and flew like the wind speeding up to save as many lives as possible as he flew he saw the many planes and helicopter waiting for the barrier to break.
They were in stealth mode which made their wing sound silent as well as mana was used as a fuel source so was a sustainable for long time without any harmful emissions.
Jay :
I've reached the dome. So how do I go on breaking it.
The barrier was a light barrier a transparent barrier from which the sunlight penetrated inside the island. But just a touch one can feel there was something between them. It was like a glass.
Jay knocked on the barrier and it seemed sturdy. So Jay made a small nail and a hammer. He kept ehe nail firmly standing and using the hammer tried to drive the nail in. It got in but it was as sturdy as a bulletproof glass.
So Jay dropped to of lead brick on the barrier and it was a very huge brick.
But with a single wrong move it could turn down the structure beneath it into dust.
So Jay just punched the barrier until cracks started forming in the barrier and with one last punch the barrier broke down.
As shards of the barrier which broke fell down like glass and simple broke down and evaporated into thin air. As Jay himself fell into the island once more with highly trained commando's following him from behind.
The palace was in fire and it had spread into the red light district. There were merchants with will ran towards the shore. While one by one the slaves with the empty mind would simply be consumed by the fire. The fire had spread in all directions.
Jay tried to contact Fay. He put in his glasses.
Jay :
Fay where are you Fay.
Fay :
Thank God you are here. I'm trying to gather as many slaves as I can and I have taken refuge in black light district. The revolutionaries are helping us.
But the pirates have found us out and have engaged with us.
I am holding the down with my wind magic. But soon I will run out of mana. And my mana cube reserve had already been depleted.
Jay dived into the black light district. A district filled with psychopaths. Where even the soldiers are not present perfect hiding spot for revolutionaries.
The black light district is surrounded by lanterns which spew black fire. A special type of fire which is a cold fire when it burns it absorb the light instead of becoming an emitting source. It's also called shadow fire.
Replicating the same fire. Requires principles which are different from the usual fire where mana reacts with oxygen and carbon to create a flame or a combustion reaction. Where mana usually takes the place of carbon or a fuel source which creates a clean flame without carbon emissions.
Or Fire magicians would have died from carbon monoxide poisoning as a natural fireball created from hard magic systems would mean that there would be carbon emission involved and would release smoke and soot in the air. Making fire magic even more unreliable to use.
And hell in crypts.
This the system made a balanced patch. To fire magic itself. Without any tradeoffs. And it confused scientist of the world for a while. Until it was patched out too.
Fay used wind magic to blow away the bullets that the soldiers fired at her. And redirected many bullets in different directions. Even grenades couldn't come near her.
Every poisonous gases released to kill them were redirected towards the soldiers but because of their gas masks and carbon filters they were fine.
Even mana assisted missiles and heat seeking missiles were launched but were averted by the massive wind barrier.
And redirected towards the enemies itself.
But maintaining such wind barrier needs intense amount of mental strength, concentration and mana.
And all of these things were something that Fay was running out of.
For the situation handling the soldiers contacted the Ruler of the Black light District. And the Ruler came. In traditional clothes of the islands. Loose clothing underneath with tight upper clothing and entirely black clothes. White hair due to age and on his both hands were braces weighing 100 kilograms.
The soldiers who were wasting their bullets by firing on her.
He stopped them as an dark wall of fire emerged from the ground. Seperating both of them.
? :
What a fine Lass we have here. Why waste time on the dirt.
Come with me and be my concubine. I'll show you such pleasures you've never have experienced.
Fay :
No matter where you go men are the same.
? :
I'm not like those nobles who can't even wear clothes without their aids dressing them up. I am a civilized person.
Greater and noblest than the noblest of nobles.
Lenard Erst. Here to make you mine.
Fay :
Stay away from me you freak.
Fay released an horizontal tornado to stop him. The tornado covered the ground thus it took the bits of the blackened soil with it. T
Stimulating visual activity of the enemy. The tornado hit Lenard and he was pushed back as he hit a lamppost nearby.
But he got up as if nothing had happened and dusted off his clothes.
Lenard :
Like a noble I have even given you the chance of first attack. And even a warning. You see I don't like taking up my arms against woman. Because I love all women in this world.
Fay :
If you love me. Then you'll take my side and help these hostages.
Lenard :
Why should I?. They're filthy, degenerate beings who belong under my foot. Why should I even care like they exist.
You're right they are only good for one thing Labor.
Fay :
I've never seen someone as disgusting as you.
Lenard :
Soldiers stop your fire.
What did you SAY! DISGUSTING. HERE I WAS TRYING TO DO SOMETHING NOBLE AND YOU DON'T WANT TO
YOU KNOW WHAT FUCK YOU. YOU ARE ALL THE SAME.
YOU SHOULD HAVE BURNED UNDER MY FIRE A LONG TIME AGO.
With that he conjured black fire inside his hands and shot a fireball at her Fay wanted to quell the fireball as she used wind magic to suck the oxygen out of it.
But the fireball's path was only swayed not quelled.
Lenard :
So now you think you are smarter than ME. You thought I wouldn't know that Fire requires air to burn. You know what screw you my fire doesn't need all that.
Lenard : considering something
Hmm you don't need to burn you can just become my new slave. And I feel that my slave need only to be devoted to my esteemed self. So as your master I'll do you one favour.
From the sky a giant fireball of shadow fire fell from the sky.
Towards Fay. Her wind barrier wouldn't be enough to redirect it. Because she was running out of mana barely maintaining the barrier.
Suddenly as it was about to touch one more giant fireball about the same size interrupted the shadow fireball.
And their reaction neutralized each other.
Jay :
You're a noble that's the best joke I've heard all day.
Fay :
Jay you're back. Jay help me I can't hold on much longer.
Jay :
How long for you to recover your mana.
Fay :
I need atleast half a day to recover.
Jay :
That long?.
Fay :
But I can defend myself and them too.
The commandos descended from the sky and started taking out the soldiers with their outdated equipment.
One of them came near Jay.
Soldier :
We two squads have been assigned under your leadership by Sir Phoenix. We can provide anything you seek.
Jay :
Then please assist me with stopping the fire consuming the island and rescue as many as you can. You can use whatever methods you like.
Soldier :
We have already teams dispatched for search and rescue.
Well be just getting in their way.
Jay :
Assist Fay in the black light district
Soldier :
Understood.
The soldiers landed before Fay and deployed their shields which deflected the bullets as if they were nothing. And shielded the weak and Fay as she tried to recover her mana as fast as she could.
Jay : playful
Did you miss me.
Lenard :
You bitch you already had a man. I was right all along you should have died with them.
Lenard :
But In the darkest flame.
Jay :
So you're entire gimmick is you have dark flames which freezes things instead of burning them.
Lenard :
How did you learn the essence of my magic in just a look.
Jay :
What's there to look. It's a very boring trope abyssal, shadow, dark, black. All kinds of fire they're being done already to the death at this point.
Lenard :
You mock my magic so what specialty do you have.
Jay :
Only one. I like to waste my lines on pointless things like there.
Jay :
For you a special dialogue generic villain.
I summon thee divine fire. Become the sun in the palm of my hand for thoust are the source of all life and purity.
Concentrated fire.
A small ball of fire was formed about the size of two fingers. And accelerated by light magic that once shot it burned through the gut and formed a gaping hole which was stil burning and started burning his clothes.
