The Golem Mage

Oni, on the other hand, instilled in the Orcs the terrifying notion that they were facing an indestructible Ghoul that just won’t die.

With reckless abandon, he lunged into their midst just like Legion, as his six tendrils wings behind his back morphed into an array of lethal blades. Explore more at NovelFire.Côm

And with Each step he took he was accompanied by the killing of orc lives, although he himself sustained numerous injuries from venturing into the heart of the Orcs’ formation.

Since Unlike Legion, who possessed heightened senses that allowed him to evade danger effortlessly, he lacked such foresight.

But Whenever he neared the point of collapse, he would transform his six Blade hands into tendrils and ruthlessly plunge them into the bodies of the closest Orcs in proximity.

Through this grim act, he siphoned their life force and mana to mend his own damaged body, leaving the Orcs drained and resembling withered corpses.

The combination of Oni’s demonic visage and his macabre actions caused him to become the most feared golem in the eyes of the Orcs, prompting them to desperately flee from his presence.

”Such futile attempts!” a deep, musky voice bellowed from behind Oni’s mask, his hands now brimming with surging dark energy. Placing his palms on the ground, he allowed the dark energy to permeate the bodies of three deep Orcs, causing their corpses to convulse as some unknown symbol was etched onto their faces by the malevolent dark element.

Oni erupted into fervent laughter as he finally wielded his weapon for the first time the Dark Reaper scythe.

This fearsome weapon exuded an aura of pure darkness.

”Stop him!, Don’t let whatever he is doing come to fruition!”

One Orc at the forefront, overcome by a foreboding feeling about Oni’s intentions, summoned his courage and rallied the others to launch a unified assault.

However, before they could advance, they witnessed the maniacal Oni swing his scythe twice with a deranged expression on his face Mask that seems to change according to his expression.

Two massive, crescent-shaped dark slashes, reminiscent of the half moon, were unleashed toward the charging Orcs, cleaving the few who had led the attack in half at the waist.

As the fallen Orcs lay lifeless on the ground, Oni continued to manipulate his hands, controlling the half moon dark slashes to continue reaping lives.

It was only through the combined efforts of the remaining Orcs that they were able to halt the relentless onslaught after a few agonizing seconds.

The exhausted Orcs, now cornered against a tree, panted in exhaustion.

They had realized the weakness of Oni’s dark slashes, if they attacked it together, they could disrupt his assault.

However, their efforts to interrupt him had already been in vain.

Three Orcs, their once green skin now transformed into a fiery red, rose to their feet.

With Long, pointed one horns protruded from their foreheads, while blue lights emanated from their bodies and converged towards Oni, who opened his mouth wide, ready to consume the souls of the fallen Orcs.

These three newly summoned Oni were the same ones that Oni had created in the Fighting Pavilion Tower, using the trapped Orc souls within the formation.

However, he needed dead bodies to summon them, as they would only inhabit empty shells.

That’s why Oni had been careful to execute precise strikes, cutting the Orcs only at their waists, so that the Oni-s could join the flesh together, because if there was a extensive damage that burned away a significant portion of the flesh they might find it hard to be summoned.

These three Oni Shinigami summons had grown much stronger since their last encounter, dashing towards the remaining Orcs and engaging them together, one at a time, despite sustaining injuries beyond comparison, they never backed down.

Even when killed multiple they would still revive , because as long as Oni remained alive, they would never face true death.

He would continuously summon their spirits into new bodies after draining their life force, mana, and devouring their souls.

His summoning process transformed the empty shells ( Orcs body ) to match the chosen Oni’s body structure.

With the skilled use of his scythe and his ability to heal his Oni summons , it didn’t take long for them to emanate the same energy as a Tier 2 life form as they have been levelling up too for being responsible for the deaths of Tier 3 Orcs which had more energy than them

But now as they stepped into the Tier 2 realm they started sending danger signals to the Orcs.

No longer needing to gang up to match the strength of a single Orc, they stood their ground and fought individually.

Both Legion and Oni were feared adversaries, but they were only able to fight freely due to the support of Agnes and the Hive Queen.

Without them, they would have been overwhelmed by the entire Orc army.

Agnes had accepted her responsibility as the one left to oversee the team, as they often entrusted control of the battlefield to her. However, in the Blood Moon battles, that task primarily fell to Alec as he had always been there commander.

But since they started entering the space passage to the Abyss Realm , Alec had ensured his place among the assault team, taking on the role of a damage dealer alongside Brandon.

Alec some times still gave out orders and still controlled the battlefield but he was just as an assistant now, and more of a fighter as he seems to have lost his laid back attitude of watching while his golem farm exp points for him

On the other hand, Knight assumed a more daring role as the group’s assassin, while Arthur switch between being a tank and a damage dealer.

So Agnes naturally took on the task of helping to bring the battle in their favour, as the team only support.

But For the first time, Agnes was truly relishing the ability to control the battlefield, as she had someone by her side to share the burden of stress.

The Hive Queen proved to be a wicked support for the group.

Not only did her summoned babies wreak havoc and drain the life force of any Orcs they latched onto, but they also exploded, inflicting heavy injuries upon their assailants who they felt might be a great danger for the group.

This tactical move allowed the group to have an easier time defeating them.

Moreover, no matter how many of her babies were killed, the Hive Queen could swiftly replenish her army by absorbing mana through her other baby spiders.

But the Hive Queen’s support extended beyond her summoned babies.

As Her web entanglement ensnared numerous Orcs, rendering them temporarily immobile.

This provided much-needed relief for the Gordon clan mages.

With the combined support of the Hive Queen and Agnes, the entire team was able to eliminate all the Orcs, leaving Pale and what remained of his group in shock and awe.
