The notifs kept sounding in my mind as I charged towards the army, their numbers seemed to indicate that my attack was at least successful enough...
Finally stopping as they numbered five hundred something, the stream of blood essence was fully absorbed as I managed to actually obtain two whole levels!
However, while the number indicated that my attack was successful to a great degree, it had indeed only managed to take down those who took the damage upfront as half of the army seemed to have survived the AoE attack…
But that couldn"t be helped after all, the arrow had only reached that number of successful kills after adding on the concept of "Multi-shot" to them, and I had long expected that I would need to follow up with another cleaning swipe…
"I guess it"s about time to use "that" once again…"
"Regroup! Regroup! The devastating attack that we received just now must have been the intruder"s trump card, if we act fast we can actually take care of him!"
I was already standing before the demon army that seemed to still have better leaders than the Overseer himself, which seemed to make it less sensible as to why was such a coward even the Overseer of such a base even more…
"He did say, he had a great father… could he be that legendary spoiled child who climbs position with his family"s background?"
It wasn"t that hard to believe that, after all, there were such happenings that too place everywhere in reality, but it only made me think that I may have slightly overestimated the mechanism of the demon society…
Last time I was in a base, while they tried to bully me in the beginning, the actual society was in fact not that hard to deal with as they seemed to work all towards one target, which was obviously the extermination of all pure humans after possibly converting the rest of them into people of the same race.
However, in this base, I could really see that there was a huge difference, not only was the Overseer a r.e.t.a.r.d, but the so called "Enlightenment Processor" was actually oppressed as he didn"t seem to be that submissive like Sand was, who seemed to be the perfect servant, sacrificing his own life to allow the Overseer of his base to live on…
"Well, whatever, it was for the best anyway…"
The fact that everything seemed to be going smoothly till now was actually mostly thanks to the pair"s failure to act in the full ability of their position, had that Overseer been decisive enough, I might have had a harder time in this battle, and if the Corruption Processor was actually able to use Sand"s ability at the right time, then even facing obliteration wouldn"t be uncalled for…
But such thoughts would be out of their place at the moment when I was finally facing the last resistance in the place, which also doubled as my power testament and a large EP pool that might net me one more level if I"m lucky enough.
Holding the longsword in my hand I once again attempted the fusion elemental weapon ability that I used to implement both thunder and lightning powers with the sword using key, it was the "Lightning & Thunder Style, Sword Rain" fusion technique!
Of course, just like I had improvised on my "Arrow Rain" ability with the advance of my elemental stage, I had also had plans to improve the "Sword Rain"!
First of all, while both elemental aspects were only being kept together with Ki as they didn"t last that much being just an extension of the "Elemental Armament" ability, this attack was supposed to be an aggressive hit with great destructivity but also one that had a short life span, which meant that it wouldn"t be that hard to avoid this attack as long as you defend against it for a few seconds as it dissipates...
However, as a third stage elemental pract.i.tioner with quite a big "Elemental Domain", I planned to fix this shortcoming, using that attack as an AoE melee attack at close proximity, along with the veins" support as well!
"Ready… Attack!"
While I was building up the momentum for both my Sword Ki and elements in my body for the right time to attack, it seemed that the smaller half of the army that was left had already arranged themselves as they planned to use some sort of an offensive formation at me, but sadly for them, it was already to late for that!
Jumping off from my position and directly into the open air above the center of the army, I readied the first batch of my attack as I directed my sword towards the army"s center, as I didn"t even mind the results of my attack and vied directly in the midst of the foggy center...

The instant explosion of EP absorption notifs seemed to do well as a way to prove that the attack was an instant success as well, but that wasn"t the end!
The next move of mine reminded me of a certain type of swordsmans.h.i.+p, which people called as sword dancing, and while I didn"t exactly use that type, I was kinda inspired by it, as I started delivering the rest of my "Sword Rain" sequence attacks in batches with an exact Ki & Elemental capacity while… spinning in my place...
