An Understated Dominance - Chapter 2431
After a long and tough battle, Anthony and his friends finally understood how serious things had become.
Arion wasn’t just a master with a sword; he was also incredibly fast and agile. No matter how hard they tried to attack him, they couldn’t land a single blow. His sword was always a threat, making their situation even worse.
If they continued like this, things would only get more dangerous. So when Bailey spoke up, everyone knew it was time to take action. They had to decide: they would either kill or be killed.
At that moment, Anthony, who had been holding back, made a bold choice. He bit his finger and rubbed the blood on his sword. He quickly whispered an incantation.
“Snow Maiden, arise!” he called out as he swung his sword.
Suddenly, a white figure shot out and hovered in the air. It was a beautiful woman with fair skin. Her long hair flowed like a waterfall, her dress was pure white, and her eyes sparkled with a sinister light.
As she appeared, the temperature dropped sharply, as if winter had come early. The ground froze where she walked, buildings were covered in frost, and heavy snowflakes began to fall. The atmosphere turned eerie and chilling.
This was the Snow Maiden, a legendary demon from Kimboku, sealed within Anthony’s sword. She was stunning yet deadly, with the power to control ice and snow. Just one breath from her could freeze an entire village, and her strength was overwhelming.
This demon had been passed down through the Alessandro family for generations, and Anthony had always kept her as a last resort. He only summoned her when his life was in serious danger. Each time he called on her, he lost ten years of his life.
But now, with everything at stake and the need to defeat Arion, Anthony felt he had no choice. Ten years of his life seemed like a small price to pay compared to the risk of dying.
Just as Anthony called upon the Snow Maiden, Batuul launched his ultimate attack.
With a loud roar, Batuul’s eyes turned red, and his veins bulged. A wave of intense energy surged upward, creating a massive illusory figure behind him. This figure was nearly 26 feet tall, with a human body and the head of an elephant.
This imposing illusion, known as the Elephantine, radiated a powerful divine energy. As it appeared, Batuul’s strength grew, and he reached a new level of power.
Seeing this, the three elite assassins from Eskus quickly sprang into action. They executed their combined technique, spinning together until their bodies blurred into a whirlpool of energy.
After a few moments, the vortex settled, revealing a giant nearly 13 feet tall. It was a grotesque creature with three heads and six arms, each holding a weapon that shimmered with deadly energy.
Now, three powerful beings— the Snow Maiden from Kimboku, the Elephantine from Alabastria, and the Chimera Wrath from Eskus— unleashed their most fearsome attacks, changing the course of the battle.
With a single breath, the Snow Maiden released a blast of icy wind, turning the area within a hundred yards into a frozen wasteland.
Arion was the first to be caught in the storm. The cold slowed him down, making his movements sluggish as he struggled to wield his sword.
The Snow Maiden’s incredible power to control ice and snow was overwhelming. Even a top grandmaster would find it hard to withstand her chill, constantly needing to use their energy just to stay warm. If they ran out of energy, they would end up as ice statues.
