Chapter 252: Space Curse and Old Order Sword!

After hearing Lolth’s words, Gandhi Alter showed no change in his expression but slightly nodded, as if he approved of Lolth’s actions.

"Although these are some mercenaries who are not worth much, you are a better opponent than those new nobles."

Although the old man still had his eyes covered, he could create the scene around him with his strong sense.

This is what many high-level swordsmen often call "the heart’s eye," but few can practice it to the point where it is almost better than sight, like Grandpa Gandhi.

So he clearly understood what was happening now.

The succubus took action to send these mercenaries away to another place to prevent them from being affected by the battle.

"Don’t think too highly of me, old man. I just dislike being interrupted."

Lolth let out a soft laugh, gently tapping her toes on the ground as she took a step closer to Gandhi Alter.

With just that single step, three level nine spells formed behind her, attacking Gandhi Alter from different directions!

"Abyssal Gaze," "Curse of Death Decay," "Red Lotus Fire!"

Two common spells of deep abyss mages and one level nine fire spell, all extremely terrifying pure attack spells, created with the purpose of "erasing life."

Above the old man’s head, a dark crack opened, revealing strange red lights, as if countless eyes were gazing at him, each one filled with the aura of death.

It was like thousands of "Death Gazes" all launching at once.

Beside him, a red fire lotus bloomed fully, with flames flowing like liquid within the burning flower, slowly approaching Gandhi.

This madly intense fire power seemed strangely quiet. Wherever it passed, even the space itself appeared twisted by the burning nature of the flames!

Around Gandhi Alter’s body, many grayish-blue lights were swirling!

The breath of decay, corruption, and withering spun around, the grayish-blue lights turned as if ready to devour Gandhi Alter like hungry wolves, waiting for him to show a weakness.

But Gandhi Alter showed no weakness at all!

In facing Lolth’s three level-nine spells, his response was very simple.

That was… to keep drawing his sword!

"Evil sorcery, return to nothingness!"

Under his commanding voice, the elegant sword drew three silver lights in the air.

The powerful wave of ordered power shattered the three level-nine spells, and the magic waves filled with abyssal energy or fire attributes, two of the most violent types of magic, quickly calmed down and then returned to nothingness.

The flames of the lotus withered, the opened abyss closed its eyes, and the curses around him also disappeared.

Just by drawing his sword, he broke an attack powerful enough to seriously injure a legend.

However, Gandhi Alter did not feel relieved!

He even showed a hint of surprise.

Because the moment he drew his sword, along with the huge wave created as the magic faded, he lost his "sensitivity" to that succubus!

Gandhi Alter knew that the other side must have used some method to hide their presence.

But the fact that the succubus could seize the moment when the magic faded to interfere with his perception showed that this succubus was stronger than he imagined!

"Where…"

Gandhi Alter felt an invisible pressure in his heart.

However, it was not a desperate situation.

As soon as the opponent makes a move, she will definitely be able to feel where they are.

The opponent’s breath may be hidden, but an attack will not!

An attack that can inflict real damage on her will certainly not be able to hide to the point where she wouldn’t notice it.

Time passed slowly.

After five seconds had passed, just when Gandhi Alter almost started to doubt whether the opponent had escaped, she suddenly felt a chill coming from behind her.

"Crack—"

A faint sound of cracking filled the air.

"What is that?"

Gandhi Alter sensed a wave of magical energy and, feeling very alert and tense, instinctively thrust her sword towards the direction of the magical wave.

But after stabbing with the sword, Gandhi Alter immediately understood he had been tricked!

"It’s ‘Space Birth Cycle.’"

Lolth’s calm voice sounded behind him.

After Gandhi Alter stabbed with the sword, all the space around him fell into a chain of collapse and destruction!

This is the kind of magic that Lolth trusts the most and is best at—space magic.

"Space Birth Cycle"—a forbidden level space magic; even though it sounds weak, theoretically, it can slay gods!

It’s a hundred times more terrifying than the "Chaotic Space" that Dorothy faced… Chaotic Space just makes the structure of space chaotic.

But this magic makes the original space "briefly disappear" and then allows a new space to "appear."

If these two steps function separately, the latter is the "creation of a dimension," something only gods can do, while the former is "space annihilation," which only exists in theory.

This forbidden spell uses a clever trick to make both events happen at the same time, creating a delicate balance.

The only downside is that… this technique cannot be activated on its own; it needs a "powerful surge of magic" to start.

The magician’s own magic is not strong enough.

It is a spell that only activates after being attacked.

It is similar to a knight’s defensive counterattack and a ranger’s skill technique.

So, if the opponent is not strong enough, it cannot be triggered; if the opponent is not fooled, the magician must find another person to perform a duo self-destruct.

This is one of the few space forbidden spells that even Lolth would not claim to have mastered well.

However… once this technique is used, it usually results in a life-or-death situation for a Legend High Level.

Although she intentionally controlled its scale and power, Lolth knew that after all this, the old man named Gandhi Alter would be severely injured as well—there was no way around it; against this level of opponent, Lolth could not afford to hold back.

"I’m sorry, old man…"

Lolth said with great regret, quietly watching as the effects of the Space Birth Cycle slowly came to an end.

Among them, Old Gandhi Alter was no longer the elegant and noble figure he once was; the ceremonial sword in his hand was broken in half, his noble clothing was torn and tattered, the mask on his face was also shredded, and he was covered in blood, with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.

However, when Lolth saw this scene, she narrowed her eyes.

Because, after the magic faded, Gandhi Alter still raised the remaining half of his broken sword and pointed it at himself!
