“Lightning artillery” in response to Corey’s words I just bombarded the monsters with lightning. Having summons fight an Ego Elemental was redundant. Cloud Lord was not exactly an Ego Elemental per se but it satisfies the condition of one.

Turning a broken Rune into an Ego Elemental was a huge feat. This could only be achieved when the broken Rune completely surrenders to its new master.

Using a rune to create rune cards is already demanding in itself but to use a broken rune to create rune cards is even more demanding not to mention something as advanced as an Ego Elemental.

Therefore Corey never thought that my Cloud Lord was also an Ego Elemental similar to her Ego Fire despite it showcasing the prowess of one. She thought of the Cloud Lord as an Elemental summon rune card that displayed a high level of power similar to an Ego Elemental because it was created by a card emperor using a card emperor’s rune.

Which also led her to underestimate the strength of Cloud Lord. But her overconfidence was deserved as whatever flame rule she comprehended was of a higher tier than a normal flame rule.

The huge amount of lightning element artillery bombarded the smoke monsters. Under the enormous power of the lightning, the smoke monsters were reduced to smoke. Before I could put on a victory smile the smoke once again condensed to form the original 30 something smoke monsters. They appeared to have not taken an ounce of damage.

“Give up your foolish struggle. You cannot kill them, they are eternal.” Corey once again asked me to surrender. She appeared to be extremely confident about her Ego Fire

[Skill Name: 7th Hell: Eternal Agony

Skill Type: Origin Card(Relife- Inheritance: Titled Demon Core)

Skill Rank: Ego Fire (Eternal Flame of Agony), Rune (Eternal Flame)

Skill Effect: Upon activation, the surroundings of the user turn into the 7th Hell burning with Eternal flame. The area of effect is based on users’ power.

Additional Effect: Sinners of Agony.]

Sinner of Agony: Any enemy unit killed in 7th hell that is burning with eternal flame has his/her soul imprisoned by the Eternal flame to live in agony for the rest of eternity. The user can call upon these sinners as a summons to fight for him/her.

Note: Sinner’s of Agony will blindly follow their lord’s orders for eternity as result sinners strength is tied with their lord’s strength. That is they cannot be of a higher realm than their lord.

“Um… There must be a trick to this. Did they turn into the smoke to avoid being burnt by lightning? But the power behind lightning artillery was very powerful; it burnt all the air in the area of effect, meaning even if the monsters turned into smoke they should not have been able to survive. Um… the simplest way to end them is to have you surrender.” Unable to deduce how to get rid of the smoke monsters I decide to take care of the summoner indirectly getting rid of the summoned monster.

“Cloud Lord, Summon Elemental Minions.” If I have to reach Corey then I had to engage the 30 something smoke monsters in-between first. So to keep the Smoke monsters busy I had Cloud Lord summoned Cloud Elementals.

Soon 30 plus Cloud elementals in the shape of a genderless viltronian appeared in the air above the arena burning with smoky dark red flame.

“It seems I was wrong, your Cloud elemental is more of an Ego Elemental than an Elemental Summon Rune card. Did I judge it wrong because it is made of broken runes? It seems the southern emperor favors you a lot. But how was she able to get the will of broken runes to surrender to you?” Corey finally realized that Cloud Lord was an Ego Elemental made of a broken rune and was confused about how it surrendered to me.

“No comments. So, what if you have an immortal army, I have a replenishable army.” The elementals are hard to kill but compared to the tenacity of smoke monsters they were nothing. But I can have Cloud Lord summon any number of them.

“You think a bunch of elementals are the match of my sinners of agony? Each one of those monsters you see is a tyrant in its own way. They are brutal and vicious, have a lot more experience in combat compared to the elementals you summoned on a wimp.” Corey’s words turned true in 5 seconds.

As I sent the cloud elements to fight the smoke monster’s it did not take long before all of Cloud Elements were torn apart by smoke monsters. Backing Corey’s claims. It took a mere 5 seconds for the smoke monsters to kill all the Cloud elements. These Cloud elementals were not normal cloud elements; they were formed by the power of rules and runes and have an understanding of rules and could use them to a point. Yet they lost so devastatingly to the smoke monsters.

“Interesting, did you help the boy create an Ego Elemental out of Broken rune? How were you able to get the broken rune surrendered to a card soldier? Broken runes have very demanding requirements for their masters, how did you do it?” Luna asked her cousin after seeing Wyatt’s Cloud elemental create a bunch of cloud elementals using the world rule Cloud.

“No, I did not. I think he bid it by himself.” Anna was also confused no less than Corey and Luna.

Wyatt had created an Ego Gem just an hour ago. How was he able to capture the Cloud broken rune from the dying Ego gem and turn it into Ego Elemental.

Ego Elemental creation is a very advanced technique. It requires the user to have a very high grasp of the rule. Runes have different tiers to them and these tiers are based on the comprehension level of the rule used to create these runes.
