Master Of None

Chapter 1846: 1846. Use It All!

Remeyʼs fist struck down toward the golden throne with its blackened runes covering it. This was the item that had to be destroyed so that the group could weaken and put away the undead forever. Midnight knew this too and was ready to give Remey another boost.

With a hard push from Midnight, Remey jolted forward with even more force than before. This wasnʼt anything that threw her off. She had instinctively felt that Midnight moved behind her to help her. Call it a sixth sense for battle or just her trust for her family, but this was the best improvement for Remeyʼs attack at the moment.

Walker had also seen this and was letting himself smile even as he battled the force of the mummified pharaoh holding him in place. But when he noticed that the mummified pharaoh had stopped moving and that it even seemed to be allowing things to happen around it, Walker knew something was wrong.

The moment that Remeyʼs fist landed on the golden throne and the light elemental mana radiated out of her fist, everything seemed to go silent. Darkness mana and an odd aura of death radiated away as well. ”Pathetic fools who can not see the path.” The mummified pharaoh spoke again but this time the voice seemed to be all around them.

The darkness mana rushed to the mummified pharaoh and Walker saw that the golden bones slowly turned black as well. The black wraps that had been on the mummified pharaohʼs body seemed to expand and became a cloak of sorts. The wraps seemed to have a mind of their own and formed in to sharpened shadows. ”Now you will all join my rise to become a true god.”

The throne had been destroyed, but it seemed to have just been a holding spot. A thing to hold on to mana just like the spirit marks or the eternal form. That was why the stalemate had been broken. So what if more mana couldnʼt be easily gathered? The mummified pharaoh now had all the mana it had stored up to use and it could do so now without issues. It could store more later.

This wasnʼt anything that would stop its plans.

When Remey saw that her attack had somehow made the mummified pharaoh stronger, she tried to raise their fist. Unfortunately, the shattering light affinity knuckles had left her hand bruised and even a few fingers broken. She couldnʼt punch again with her full force unless she wanted to completely cripple her hand.

She needed healing but she realized that the light elemental mana all around them had been repressed.

No one had noticed it until this moment, but even Aliceʼs song appeared to have been hindered. The light swords that she had been using had faded and were barely able to condense. Even Rise was appearing to be weaker than she had ever been before. The slight mist of darkness was coming from the mummified pharaoh.

The only one that appeared to be without struggle was Mordant, but he had already made a move to forcefully stop the partially mummified dragon from moving. If he moved now to do anything else, then Gil would be the one to die. The partially mummified dragon was losing multiple bone pieces from its body due to Gilʼs flurry of dagger strikes.

Each attack was weakening the dragon bone connections with the wrappings and the smaller bones. If Gil stopped, then the partially mummified dragon might be able to recover. Even with the fact that some of the bones that fell off started to crumble, the mummified parts of the dragon were still incredibly powerful. It could easily stand against the entire party as long as it could still regenerate.

Gil could not change his attacking style or try to help Walker or else they would all lose. He was trapped in essence.

Su tried to make a move as she saw the wrappings of pure darkness mana true to pierce Walker. They had formed in to one large tendril of sharp darkness mana. The lingering death mana around it spelled death for anyone and anything. Su had vowed to defend everyone precious to her. She would be losing one of the people that meant the most if she did nothing here.

As if moving in slow motion, everyone saw the spike heading for Walker. Even he was unable to make another move since the stalemate had been broken and the mummified pharaoh had the upper hand now. Everything he had tried to do to hold the mummy off was useless now. It looked like he had signed his own death warrant.

”Fine, if you are going to hurt me then I will use all the damn mana I have!” Walker felt it was futile, but he figured he should use all the natural mana he had to use at once. It might do nothing without actually getting inside the mummified pharaoh. But it might help his family end the mummified pharaoh after he was gone.

”Did you really expect me to remain behind, brother?”

The single voice reached out to Walker as Onyx shattered through the barrier on the stairs. He had been behind to fight the many indeed below them in the pyramid. But no one had expected that Onyx would be able to break through. The force needed would be extraordinary.

Right before the spike of darkness could pierce Walker, Onyx had taken his full sized form and become the shield Walker needed. It was clear in the slow motion view of everything that Onyx was already losing scales after forcefully breaking through a powerful barrier. But the attack that broke through him even more caused scales and blood to take to the air.

Walker felt his heart crack when Onyx was harmed. The unimaginable feeling of trauma that shot through their bind was more than Walker could even fathom. However, seeing his family hurt had flipped a switch. The threat that had reached out to him before made Walker feel he had to use all of this mana no matter what. But he had no guide in form of how he would use it.

Now there was a chance.

Now there was a clear opening to use all his mana.

Fluer seemed to feel this as well. Her reaction to let Walker have full control of the natural mana she stored up was what he ended to push him forward. He released the eternal orb staff and fell down right in front of the mummified pharaoh that was in disarray because of Onyxʼs sudden block.

The opening that Walker saw was the space where the wrappings had left exposed. The blackened bones with hints of gold were right there in the open. Walker reached out with full force and pushed his hands in to the core of the mummified pharaoh.

With all his intention and belief, Walker pushed natural mana in to the core of the mummified pharaoh. For an instant, the world seemed to have stopped turning. No one could tell what this feeling was, but for anyone that had ever experienced it in their life, it was victory.

A single pulse of natural mana seemed to reverse flow through every single rune in the entire city from the pyramid. The mummified pharaoh began disintegrating along with every single undead that it had controlled. Small amounts of mana appeared to be bleeding out of every rune as well. They had effectively been destroyed when the natural mana flowed backwards through them.

All the false death runes had not been made to allow natural mana throughout their form.

The only bones left behind from the partially mummified dragon were the claws and the skull used to create the partially mummified undead monster that had fought them. But more importantly, the natural mana seemed to have purified them. The same could be said for the mummies around the ruins that did not choose their fate as undead.

But none of this seemed to matter. The runes falling apart, the changes happening all around them. The fact that there was chaos happening around as some of the mummified undead began losing their forms and in turn, the city was becoming truly lifeless. The only thing that mattered was that Onyx was still hurt and Walker was barely able to remain awake to get by his side.

”Alice! Come heal him with me!” Walker barely yelled out this distraught sentence as he tried to call any mana to him. Any mana that could possibly be used to heal Onyx. he even threw out tons of potions from his storage all to be poured on the bleeding wound and the empty spaces where Onyxʼs scales had been. He would do anything to prevent Onyx from dying here.

”Brother, we won…”
