Vile Evil Hides Under The Veil-Novel

The green lightning water was displaced by an explosion.

The condensed green lightning was dispersed by streaks of red lightning that knew only one thing– destroying everything in their vicinity. Blitz Bolts were fired in quick succession, turning this attack into chain destruction.

The Blitz Bolts finally managed to reach the contract beast who was trying to weasel his way out of the projectiles' path. Ivor had shrunk the contract beast's size to not make him an easy target for Eren's attacks. But there was only so much he could do when he was inside the beast's belly.

Zimm!

The beast couldn't make any noise but one could tell that it was suffering by the amount of water it dispersed after being hit with the barrage of red lightning bolts. The projectiles were aimed at its fins. No matter how much the beast or Ivor tried to hide that part from Eren, the latter's projectiles would always find their way to hitting the beast's fins, tail, or eyes.

Eren kept firing Blitz Bolts after Blitz Bolts into the green lightning pond Ivor had created for himself. The attack stopped after about two minutes. Eren got a bit exhausted after maintaining such a mana-consuming attack for so long.

'This should be enough.'

Eren thought to himself before raising his hand. He decided to execute his chain spell next.

Lightning Seed and Lightning Tree were chain spells that complement each other. As their name suggests, it would allow their caster to summon a seed made of pure lightning mana. This seed would then germinate upon the caster's orders and turn into a sapling before assuming the form of a lightning tree in quick succession.

The lightning tree would diffuse a dense amount of lightning in the surroundings through its active vines, leaves, roots, and the streaks of lightning surrounding it.

The most impressive thing about this spell was that it was low in mana consumption. The Lightning Seed germinates using the caster's mana as a base. As a result, the Lightning Tree would consume mana from the surroundings while allowing the caster to have control over them.

Lightning Seed and Lightning Tree combine two or more schools of spells to make their effects feasible. It grants them crowd control powers depending on how their caster uses them in their battles.

The multi-school origins of the spells also made them more complex. As a result, these spells were a bit difficult to cast. Another drawback of using the spells was the fact that the Lightning Seeds needed to be planted in advance or had to be shot at the enemy manually.

This was why Eren had shot Blitz Bolts into the green lightning pond at first. The red lightning rods became carriers for lightning seeds which were then scheduled to turn into lightning trees.

Ivor felt a dangerous sensation all around him inside his pond when the lightning seeds started germinating. When the shells of these red seeds cracked, red saplings emerged and grew at an astonishing rate.

The contract beast started to suffer when lightning trees grew all around it all of a sudden and started to asphyxiate it using their vines. Green vines covered its body in lightning water in an attempt to defend it. But the sheer amount of red lightning vines made it nearly impossible for Ivor to keep his contract beast safe from them anymore.

The green eel was damaged by the destructive cluster of red lightning elements. It tried to heal itself and attack the red lightning trees using its innate spells as well. But it was to no avail. The germinated crimson trees had created a mini forest in the green pond, dispersing a huge amount of condensed green mana with each passing second.

Eren smiled as he saw the effects of using the crossbow and his ranger-specific spells. He felt that he couldn't use the spells to their full potential yet. He compensated for that by increasing the quantity.

Still, he was satisfied with the way things had turned out. Using a crossbow and long-range spells did not suit his style. But he would not say no to using them if the situation demanded it. The butcher was flexible with his approach if he could get the desired results.

'Time to end this charade.'

Eren thought to himself as he narrowed his eyes at the grim-looking Ivor. With a mere thought, he detonated the lightning trees and used their leaves as lightning shards. The destructive nature of red lightning mana allowed him to amplify the damage caused by lightning shards. This led to a series of explosions on the battlefield with Ivor and his contract beast in the middle of them.

When the dust settled on the battlefield, green lightning water and green lightning vines were nowhere to be found. On the battlefield, red lightning tongues continued to manifest periodically.

Ivor was standing in the middle of the battlefield with his golden armor still on. However, it had been severely damaged, even more than before. The contract beast had been pulled into his tattoo because it had been injured by Eren's chain attack. Only the beast's husk remained, and it looked like a snake had shed its skin.

Eren appeared in front of Ivor and threw a cross punch at his exposed left shoulder which wasn't covered by golden armor. The butcher had coated his fists with wrath mana to increase damage output. Even if he couldn't use his Ability to its fullest, Eren decided to give Ivor a hint of wrath mana.

Ivor tried to defend himself from Eren's attacks. But Eren's speed and elevated body stats made it difficult for Osan Jr. to handle him. Especially when his pride armor wasn't working to its fullest anymore.

Ivor was surprised to see that his pride mana was not very effective against Eren's wrath mana. There was something about the butcher that made him extremely compatible with wielding the Sin series' intent-based magic. Had he used Wrath Mana from the beginning, the duel would have been over a lot quicker.

"I… I admit defeat."

Ivor finally gave up after suffering enough from Eren's bare hands. His pride armor was shattered completely and dispersed into thin air when he announced his defeat.
