The Lord Is Too Overbearing

Chapter 266 Debut (2)



Basil encircled Cabalen with five of the swords he controlled with [Master of Weapons]. All of them were covered with electricity that crackled everytime it detected metal.

Cabalen thought Basil was going to directly attack him with the swords from all directions, so he prepared to sweep all of them with his sword. Much to his surprise however, Basil sent them to the ground near him instead.

Thinking that happened because Basil had used up his Qi, he smirked disdainfully. Unfortunately for him, just as he was about to dash at Basil, he realized what Basil had done wasn't as simple as it looked.

Zap!

The swords covered in electricity that were stabbed to the ground had created a barrier of a 3 million volts electricity by the time he knew it. Although he could just pass through it, he didn't want to risk being momentarily paralysed because of it.

No matter how strong he was, Cabalen knew that such a high voltage of electric current could still immobilize him no matter how short of a period it was—three seconds was enough time for Basil to finish him off.

"Sneaky human! To think that he can force me into this situation..." Cabalen clicked his tongue.

He had thought about thousands of scenarios of how to get out of the situation in his head for the past three seconds, but the only way he could think of for him to survive his predicament was facing Basil's attack head on.

He didn't know what Basil was going to do, however he was sure entrapping him in an electricity barrier wasn't Basil's sole intention. Therefore, he would wait until Basil did what he was going to do.

True to Cabalen's guess, in the next moment, he could see Basil pointing his sword to the sky. His sword was covered in a madly crackling electricity, and his five Magic Circles flared intensely in blue.

Buzz!

A static could be heard reverberating in the air, and anyone who was within the radius of 1 kilometer from Basil had every hair in their body stood up due to the static electricity in the air that Basil's Art caused.

Cabalen immediately understood what Basil was going to do, so he widened his eyes at the same time he pointed his sword to the sky. Basil seemed to know that Cabalen had figured out what he was about to do as he smirked at Cabalen.

[Execution Art: The Wrath of Heavens]!

Zap!

Boom!

A 300 millions volts strong lightning struck Cabalen faster than one's eyes could blink. He was lucky however, since he could contain all of the electric current in his sword with the help of his Demonic Mana.

Still, although he could keep the lightning from electrocuting him with his sword, the swords surrounding him in the ground amplified the power of the lightning striking him. Therefore, it became harder for him to keep the electric current at bay.

"A mere human dares to play with me?! You shall regret what you have done!"

"Empty drums make a louder sound, people say."

Although Basil was slightly disappointed that his Art couldn't, at least, scorch a part of Cabalen's skin even though he had put his all in it, he was still satisfied with what he could do at his current level.

In his past life, he could only utilize the Art when he was a Seventh Circle Mage that had two Solid Realms and one Grand Circle. At that time, he utilized the Art only slightly better than what he had done earlier.

In this life, he was nothing but a Fifth Circle Mage that possessed one Absolute Realm—a Realm consisted of three Ultimate Circles—and two Ultimate Circles, but he could still produce such a result.

Even though he knew that Ultimate Circles were the perfect Magic Circles, he didn't expect the disparity between them and Grand Circles was this big.

He became excited the moment he thought about how he would be when he became a Seventh Circle Mage. He wondered if he would be as strong as a Ninth Circle Mage when that time came.

'How strong will I be when I become a Ninth Circle Mage?' Basil mused. 'Hmm... There is no use thinking about that now; my way is still long. It's better to prepare for the thing Cabalen was about to do.'

He had used up three seconds of his time musing about how strong he currently was compared to himself of the same level in his past life. Although it didn't seem long, for the two experienced individuals it was the same as wasting time.

"Eat this, human!"

"Hmph! What a futile attempt."

Basil had been watching each of Cabalen's every move—he had never turned his eyes away from said Demon, even though his mind was on something else—however he was still amazed that Cabalen could still point his sword at him.

'As expected of one of Goap's Six Great Generals...'

Dealing with the electric current running through his sword should have been hard enough for Cabalen, but he still managed to reverse it. He was now redirecting all of the electricity from the lightning to Basil with his sword.

Flash!

Boom!

Basil, who had anticipated Cabalen's attack, canceled his Art at the exact moment Cabalen redirected the lightning at him. It was considerably weakened, but he still slapped it with a sword that he controlled with his Aura Ability.

He had learnt from the knowledge the Guide had provided him that Demonic Mana did weird things to everything, so he didn't want to take a bet and take the redirected lightning with his sword.

He couldn't risk being momentarily paralysed by the electricity that was already tainted with the chaotic Demonic Mana.

Boom!

While the ground beside Basil was still in the process of developing a crater due to the redirected lightning, Basil and Cabalen dashed at each other like a flash.

They clashed in the middle, and it was enough to make a bigger crater on the ground below them than the one the redirected lightning made on the ground beside where Basil had been at.

Whoosh!

A spine chilling pressure also swept the battlefield as the two people's Mana that was tainted with a heavy killing intent clashed against each other. There were even some Demons and humans that were paralysed due to it.

"You are a danger to us Demons that I feel unfortunate to kill," Cabalen remarked. "Join us, human. Join us, and we will let you taste how elating having everyone below your feet is!"

"Basil Pacifer."

"Oh, so that is your name?" Cabalen smirked, thinking that Basil had been bought by his words. "My name is Cab—"

"Remember the name of the person who kills you."

"Audacious!"

While Cabalen's face contorted in rage, it was Basil's turn to smirk at Cabalen. He ignored Cabalen afterwards, then infused his Qi into the Sealing Sword he was wielding while simultaneously creating thousands of small Qi Blades in the air.

Boom!

He burst the Qi he had stored in his sword, pushing Cabalen three meters to the back. Said Demon skidded harmlessly on the ground, however he was soon overwhelmed by Basil's thousands of small Qi Blades.

Seeing that as a chance, Basil sent one of the swords floating behind him at Cabalen. Powered by Qi, the sword that was covered in Wind Magic cut through the air even faster than lightning.

Stab!

"Kuhak!" Cabalen clutched his chest that was pierced by the sword Basil had sent, thus allowing the remaining small Qi Blades to cut his skin. "Human! How dare you use this kind of petty trick against me!"

Instead of answering, Basil merely tilted his head then snapped his finger. A dome of violently rotating wind instantly surrounded Cabalen as Basil simultaneously cast a Fire Element Spell.

[Hellfire]!

Five red Magic Circles suddenly appeared on the ground surrounding Cabalen and the wind dome.

A great fire explosion that was half as hot as the surface of the sun replaced each of the Magic Circle, before becoming one with the wind dome.

The wind dome became no longer a wind dome as it had turned into a burning red fire sphere that turned anything inside it to ashes. It was so hot, even the ground within the radius of 200 meters from the burning dome was completely charred black.

"God darn it! What has just happened? Is that kid a monster? What kind of a Fifth Circle Mage could produce that with [Hellfire]?!"

"Lighting, Wind, Fire—he can utilize three Elements proficiently... How can such a genius remain unknown until now?"

"He is the youngest Dual Principle Practitioner I have ever seen. Scratch that—he is the only Dual Principle Practitioner I have ever known who has managed to Cultivate his Core to the Peak Blue Stage!"

"This kid... Isn't he the one from the Regional Tournament three months ago?"

As the clash between Basil and Cabalen had become too big to ignore, most of the Demons retreated to notify Lucilla who was fighting the Legion Vice Commanders turned Commanders on the other side of the battlefield.

Because of that, the people could take a breather and watch the fight between Basil and Cabalen. They were simply astonished at the two's showcase of power, especially Basil, who was no older than most of the people's sons.

"To think he is this exceptional..." Iliana muttered in astonishment as she looked at Basil from afar. "Even though we possess the same amount of Magic Circles, I can tell that his Magic Circles' quality is higher than mine."

For the people who didn't have Grand Circles, it would be hard to notice the subtle yet great difference between Basil's Ultimate Circles and Grand Circles. Even Iliana, as someone who had Five Grand Circles, had only noticed it now.

Even though it was believed that Grand Circle was the highest quality of Magic Circle, Iliana could say for sure Basil's were of a higher quality. This was the only explanation she could think of to justify the disparity between their power.

"No wonder he always acts irritating..." Iliana chuckled faintly. "I would even kick everyone I see in their bollocks, if I possessed such a power."

Being everyone's target of admiration, Basil, on the other hand, frowned as he looked at the burning dome enveloping Cabalen. Unlike everyone who saw that he had the upper hand in the battle, he knew everything was just a warm-up.

Cabalen had yet used his nightmarish power—the Dragon Language.
