Chapter 589 Spectre Dimitri.
Soul flames were a unique type of flame that ignored the physical defences of the target and went straight for their soul (life force). The more a target was burnt (tainted) by the green flames, the more their life force would be depleted, thus weakening both their physical and magical strength in real-time.
The only downside to such dangerous magic was the fact that each use also burnt a small portion of the user's lifespan (a subsection of the soul). However, Dimitri's meteor hammer amplified the potency and quantity of soul flames produced while absorbing a portion of the burnt soul and passing it to the user.
Although the absorption rate was slightly lower than the rate of soul energy consumption, Dimitri didn't always need the soul flames to kill his targets; thus slightly balancing his life force.
(AN: the soul has a max capacity, and can't exceed that even if more souls are absorbed.)
"Oh ye sinners, let your souls embrace the warmth of the lord!" With a solemn expression on his pale face, Spectre Dimitri turned to the two generals tainted by his green soul flames.
After getting burnt a few times and feeling their strength being sapped away, the two generals were hesitant to keep attacking, especially after seeing one of their comrades being turned to ashes.
To make matters worse, there was still Lucius constantly foiling their plans whenever they were about to deal a fatal blow to any of the League's members.
As for attacking the support, it was only easier said than done. Not only was he protected by both the war dome and the other members but he was also a Geomancer with the wind element as his secondary element. Going for him would only lead to even more complications.
The only way out of this was to overwhelm each of the targets one at a time; as seasoned warriors, they quickly realized this and immediately began executing their plans.
Having received the signal from their comrades, the two generals had a sudden boost in confidence as they dashed toward Dimitri.
He was the most dangerous, so he was to be taken out first!
Using flameburst, one of the tainted generals boosted himself to the front of the other while encasing his right hand with a large ice drill before striking at Dimitri's head.
Seeing that the enemies had grown some balls, Dimitri grinned but didn't bother blocking since the general was approaching with an insane momentum. Instead, he used the wind element to get out of the way but almost at the same time, a thick lightning bolt from the general behind shot toward him.
Chromastone wall!
Just as the lightning bolt was about to strike, an emerald crystal wall erupted from below and blocked the attack.
'Got you!' The two tainted generals thought as another general who was 'occupied' by another member of the League appeared behind Dimitri with his entire body covered by lightning arcs.
"Die!" The general roared as he stabbed his hand enveloped in lightning at Dimitri's heart.
(AN: Chidori!)
"HAHAHAHA!" Instead of hearing the sound of Dimitri's heart being punctured, all they heard was a crazed laugh from him.
"Have you ever wondered why they call me Spectre Dimitri?" Dimitri chuckled, drawing their attention to his cloak which was now filled with green patterns.
His cloak was an Epic-rank item that made every part of his body that it covered become intangible for a few seconds. Also, it induced fear in anyone who came in contact with it whether with their body or a weapon that they held.
'Shit!' With his heart now pounding, the general tried taking out his hand, but Dimitri's hand which was still tangible had already swung the meteor hammer through himself.
CRACK!
The hammer crashed on the general's head, releasing a massive amount of soul flames that instantly tore through his energy barriers.
"AH!"
The unlucky general screamed in pain as the soul flames burned both his soul and fatally injured head. However, Dimitri was in no way done with him.
The Spectre who had now become tangible, immediately turned and used the chains of the Meteor hammer to sweep him off his feet, before striking again with the hammer.
BOOM!
The ground below cracked as the meteor hammer slammed into the general who was now severely injured.
"May the heavens accept your lost soul." Spectre Dimitri prayed as he increased the flames from the Meteor hammer.
"NOOO!"
Another general who was a close friend to the unlucky general who was being incinerated screamed in rage as he threw his Epic-rank spear toward Dimitri.
At that time Lucius erected another Chromastone wall.
"Huh?" Dimitri turned in the direction of the noise and sensed a spear coming at him, but that was when a spatial corridor appeared just before the chromastone wall with its exit opening above the unlucky general.
A dimensional image!
Just like the soul flames, Dimensional mages were rare. This was because they were only useful in battle when they had spatial tags for their exit points. So not many people bothered to go down that path.nOVe)lb(1n
However, after seeing Blake's accomplishments during his time in the empire, a lot more people were inspired.
In this case, the spear wielder had given his friend a tag, but he hadn't expected to be killed so quickly.
'Interesting...' Dimitri thought as he sensed the spear not too far from puncturing his skull. Instead of panicking, he just smiled.
_________________________________________________________________________
AN: Earlier in the book, I stated that soul flames could only be defended by soul protection items or artefacts. However, after careful consideration, I decided to nerf it a little bit because it was too OP.
Now, energy-based defences would be able to protect one against soul flames. On the bright side, if one has a soul protection item or artefact the soul flames would no longer be useless, they would just burn like normal flames do.
Tell me what you think about this in the comment section :)
