Chapter 993 Decisive Moment (11)

?"Fire Transformation, Release!"

The black wings flared up, melting the ice wings. Noel's hands started to turn black as if they were influenced by the black sword on his hand.

"!!!" The two Devil Saints felt something much more ominous coming from Noel. It seemed that the fire element was truly above the ice element.

Instead of both of them, Noel actually focused on the demons not far from them. While they were in shock, Noel stabbed the ground with his sword.

Outburst.

Multiple explosions occurred in front of the sword, creating a new chain of explosions in a fan-shaped area toward the demons.

"!!!" The two Devil Saints were astounded. Instead of focusing on them, Noel actually attacked the demons.

When they took a glimpse of the situation on the other side, Noel's action seemed rational.

Although the soldiers were still hanging on, they were still overwhelmed by their numbers. So, Noel actually blasted a lot of demons to relieve them.

However, this was an insult to the Devil Saints. Noel had gone all the way to fight two Devil Saints, yet he still focused on other battlefields.

Without hesitation, the two Devil Saints jumped forth. Since Noel thought he was that capable, they just had to cut him down here.

Noel's plan had worked. The moment they came here, he immediately activated the Flame Devil.

An avatar similar to Howard's emerged from Noel's back.

This avatar leaned to the right, smashing the Transformation Devil Saint. The latter changed his legs to those of a rabbit, using the jumping power to escape from the fist.

Meanwhile, Noel waved his sword toward the spear user.

Sword Transmutation.

The Spear Devil Saint hurriedly raised his spear to block this sword with its handle. However, he soon noticed something was wrong. The energy on his sword suddenly flared up and got extended like that of a whip.

"What?" The spear user hurriedly ducked while lowering his arms to avoid getting hit by this whip-shaped energy. He had never heard about a technique like this.

Of course, he didn't know about it. This was a technique that he created after learning from the Sword Arbiter. He had understood what he should do regarding the Everchanging Emotion Sword Style.

The name itself was always changing, so how could the energy that the sword produced remain as a sword? He could use things like a whip or even a spear. However, Noel still handled them like a sword.

Even when the whip-shaped energy looped around, it still banged the spear's handle like metal.

'Guilt is not enough?' Noel furrowed his eyebrows. The 'Guilt' emotion was based on the overwhelming need to change one way to avoid making the same mistake. That was why the sword could turn into a whip.

However, he thought that this was enough for a surprise attack. Even when the Spear Devil Saint ducked down, he still maintained a certain balance that he could escape if Noel attacked him.

At the same time, the Transformation Devil Saint managed to loop around and attack Noel from behind.

Noel activated the Spiritual Barrier Rune to block his kick. However, the Transformation Devil Saint had turned his foot into that of a horse, boosting the power in that kick.

Even Noel's Spiritual Barrier Rune actually cracked from the impact. He even wanted to perform another kick to destroy it.

Fortunately, Noel was fast enough to draw an Amplification Rune. His target was actually the cracked Spiritual Barrier.

When the Transformation Devil Saint sent out the second kick, it shattered the cracked part of the Spiritual Barrier Rune, but it was not enough to completely destroy it.

"!!!" The Transformation Devil Saint realized that he had been tricked. This was actually Noel's intention. He had to draw his foot immediately as he saw Noel turning around with his sword, ready to cut his foot.

Before the sword could reach him, the Spear Devil Saint thrust his spear from below.

"Snake Spear!"

Noel glanced back. The spear was swift, so Noel tilted his body to avoid this thrust.

However, he didn't know if his eyes were failing him or if he had been so injured that he began hallucinating, but the spear looked like it was curving toward him.

'Wha—!' Noel threw himself to the side as the energy from the spear burst out, grazing his cheek and right shoulder. It was so powerful that the skin was gone. If he hadn't reacted fast enough, his head would have been blown away.

Before falling to the ground, Noel waved his hand to send forth the Undying Phoenix toward him. Because of his current condition, he failed to release it with precision.

The Spear Devil Saint also tried to stand up and get away, but the Undying Phoenix had reached the ground next to him and exploded.

The Spear Devil Saint was blasted several meters away. The fire caused a bit of scorched skin on the left side of his body, but the Spear Devil Saint was still skilled enough to brush off the flame so that it didn't stick to him. If the flame truly reached his skin, he might have to chop that part away before it engulfed him entirely.

Seeing the Spear Devil Saint was unable to provide any more cover, the Transformation Devil Saint, who had pulled back his foot, immediately jumped into the air before slamming his fist on the spot where Noel fell.

Noel looked at the Transformation Devil Saint. If this were a normal person, they might not be able to escape from it. But this was Noel.

He used the Enhance Forward Rune to propel himself away from the blast zone.

*Bam!* The punch created a massive crater.

Unfortunately for him, Noel managed to escape from him. Now that there was a crater, it meant that Noel could stop the Enhance Forward Rune, allowing his body to fall to the ground due to gravity.

He landed foot first while positioning his blade on top of his head.

Sword Transmutation.

Turtle. The Transformation Devil Saint created a turtle shell on his back and blocked the Sword Transmutation with it.

But the Sword Transmutation had been powered by Fear, Anger, and Shame. The fear increased his speed so that the attack could reach the Devil Saint before the turtle shell was fully summoned. The Anger gave the sharpness it needed to cut through the shell, while the Shame increased the penetration force.

As a result, the turtle shell broke apart. Sadly for Noel, the opponent was a Devil Saint. The Sword Transmutation actually failed to cut him down properly.

It only gave him a sword wound running from his right shoulder to his left back. Considering his current energy level, he should be satisfied with this result. The bleeding would definitely weaken him gradually.

Still, Noel had one more problem. He didn't have a lot of time left.

The battle was fierce, but he still failed to kill his opponent even after ten minutes. There were only a few minutes left before Dimitri's True Spirit Body wore out.

If he couldn't kill both of these Devil Saints before then, no one would be able to stop Qiel. Dimitri might die. Even if he could save Anna, Howard would probably bring the rear to stop their rampage. In the end, only he and Anna could probably survive.

At the same time, killing these two Devil Saints was not an easy task. He had been fighting recklessly the whole time, but he still failed to create an opening that could kill them.

In fact, he should be praised for being able to fight this much. He only had thirty percent of his energy left when he went all out against the demon tree. Even after using the pill, he only recovered twenty percent of his strength.

So, he had been fighting two Devil Saints in that condition. It was amazing to even keep up with them.

Noel took a deep breath, carefully assessing the situation. Howard was completely occupied and didn't seem that he could kill the tiger in the next few minutes.

Anna had been suppressed by Laufey's power. So, it didn't seem that she could defeat Laufey until the True Spirit Body ran out.

'What should I do now? Time is running out.'

Noel had used the new runes and his new mastery of the Everchanging Sword. Even both of his transformations had been revealed. But this wasn't enough. If he wanted to win, he needed the last push.

Ever since Heisk disappeared to get her True Spirit Body, he hadn't received any missions from Ardagan. At first, he thought that getting the mission's reward might be able to create an opportunity that he could never imagine before. At the same time, he could understand why the Ardagan didn't give him the mission due to the toll his body would take in getting a True Spirit Body.

As if realizing the dire situation, Ardagan suddenly appeared, giving another solution that he never thought was possible.

[Do you need a True Spirit Body?]
