Chapter 1115 Syradils Adaptation

Chapter 1115 Syradil's Adaptation

Wiping the blood from her lips, Syradil continued to dodge without being able to fight back as Shiro constantly had a barrier around her that allowed her to absorb the mana.

’Everything I throw at her is being thrown back even harder than before. Plus, she’s not exactly letting me have a relaxing time either.’ Syradil thought with a frown while quickly raising her arm to protect her head.

*BANG!!! CRACK!!!

Feeling her bone fracture from the hit, Syradil widened her eyes as she noticed something. The longer this fight went on, the stronger Shiro’s hits became. It’s as though all of the mana that she’s absorbed is used to reinforce her body and empower her attacks.

However, there wasn’t anything she could do about it since she only knew how to use mana.

"What’s wrong Syradil, don’t tell me that’s it. Are you nothing but a punching bag? Are you not an Empress who has won multiple New Age’s? Show me the power that allowed you to win." Shiro asked as her face was cold.

Slamming her hands together, a tier 7 magic circle exploded out as Syradil felt danger from all around her.

Gritting her teeth, she activated another dragon form as black lightning erupted around her.

Her form started to enlarge as black and red scales covered her body.

Rearing her head back, she let out a bellowing roar as the land tore itself apart.

Black flames shot out of the ground and withered the landscape. Seeing this, Shiro scoffed.

"Gaia would be upset at your actions." She said while snapping her fingers.

Her hair suddenly turned green as an emerald dress covered her body. Waving her finger, large tree’s comparable to the world tree that the elves worshipped sprouted from the ashes. Shaking their leaves, a green aura descended to the land as all of the flames disappeared and the landscape was rejuvenated.

Seeing this, Syradil narrowed her eyes and sent black spikes in all directions before jumping up into the sky.

Opening a path for herself, her black and red scales started to transform as her form started to shrink.

"Finally getting serious?" Shiro curled the corner of her lips up into a smile as she snapped her fingers.

Several streaks of lightning appeared around her as each streak was actually made up of tiny golden runes.

Pointing at Syradil, Shiro narrowed her eyes and activated the spell.

*BOOM!!!

Seeing the lightning behind her, Syradil gritted her teeth and Activated a tier 6 spell of her own.

’Sh*t! It’s not fast enough!’

Widening her eyes, she braced herself for impact.

"GAH!!!!" Feeling the shock through her body, Syradil couldn’t help but scream out in pain as her transformation was forcefully cancelled.

Transforming a part of her arm to that of a lightning dragon, she attempted to remove the lightning from her body.

However, the moment she grabbed the lightning, it started to run rampant up her arm, ripping it apart in the process.

Looking at the lightning, she decided to keep holding it despite the damage, allowing it to continue to damage her body.

She wanted to let her body adapt to this damage and overcome it.

Slowly, a white energy started to wrap around her body while red markings crawled across the surface of this white shell.

Little by little, her entire body was now nothing but red. Her hair disappeared into this strange energy as she seemed like she was on fire but in slow motion. Moving her hand, this energy seemed to trail behind her ever so slightly. Not enough to separate from her but enough to see a trail.

[Adaption Acquired]

A simple notification told her that this was how her body adapted to fight against this form of energy.

Looking at the lightning in her hands that was now slowly being absorbed, she could feel a new source of energy. One that was many times more powerful than mana.

"Seems like our little spar has finally shown some results." Shrio said as she floated near Syradil in her new form.

Wanting to speak, Syradil opened her mouth but was unable to let out her voice. It was a strange feeling, power that was hard to control. It was either very slow or at top speed.

She figured that once she got used to this form, she’ll be able to control the speed but right now, that was not the case.

"Seems like you’re mute for now. Nod your head once if you want to keep fighting." Shiro smiled as Syradil nodded her head.

Just as Shiro was about to attack, she widened her eyes seeing a red fist in front of her face.

Quickly tilting her head to the side, she barely managed to dodge as the speed caused a small cut on her face.

With how strong her body was now, leaving a wound was near impossible unless she did it herself. For Syradil to be able to harm her, this meant that her new form had quite the potential.

Narrowing her eyes, Shiro healed up the cut.

"Harming my face like that. Even though we’re sparing that’ll cost you." Shiro chuckled as she flickered from her spot.

Even though Syradil was fast, Shiro could upgrade her speed as well.

Appearing behind her, Shiro clenched her fist as golden runes appeared but before she could punch, Syradil had already constructed a tier 6 magic circle that was trying to ascend into the realm of tier 7.

Allowing the spell to activate, Shiro noticed that she was brought to a different realm. In this place, everything seemed to be flipped.

The ground was always above them no matter how they tried to flip while the sky was beneath them.

The colours in this realm were dull, simple black and white.

Standing in the centre was Syradil who was covered by a red energy that stood out compared to her surroundings.

’When adapting to a type of element or power, you go for the inverse. A natural counter so that the two cancels out. If you want to ignore fire, you use water. Do you think Syradil obtained the opposite of Divine Energy? Something that is the opposite of what the gods use?’ Nimue asked as the energy that was slowly radiating from Syradil was a little creepy. For her who was closely tied to mana and divine energy, it felt repulsive.

"Perhaps." Shiro replied as she felt the same. It was a feeling that reminded her of Niphim. Pure Corruption, one that appears when they fall. But Syradil felt slightly different.

When people fall, there is a sense that they’ve already walked past the line. But Syradil was balancing in the middle.

’So falling means you gain access to the corruption that counters gods. Could explain how the God Slayer fell first before killing gods.’ Shiro thought to herself as she tried to activate divine energy in this realm.

However, the moment she did, a black energy washed over the entire world as Shiro felt countless pairs of eyes locking onto her body.

The moment she snapped out of it, there was a black and white dragon behind her that was about to bite her in half.

Immediately summoning Silvanis to her side, she cut the dragon in half.

’What the hell was that...’ Shiro thought with a frown.

From the corpse of the dragon, two long arms of black goo sprouted out and reached towards her.

Furrowing her brows, Shiro activated a barrier around her that blocked out the corruption.

Splattering against the surface of her barrier, each drop of the liquid would transform into something else as Syradil dashed towards Shiro at top speed.

Activating her Soul-Maiden form, Shiro chose ice as her element and breathed out a mouthful of cold mist.

Clasping her hands together, a pulse of energy exploded out in an attempt to freeze the world but the moment she tried, the strength of the corruption would only grow stronger.

Clicking her tongue, Shiro grabbed Silvanis and swung towards Syradil.

Just before her blade could reach Syradil, a fracture appeared on the red energy covering her body.

*PING!!

Shattering apart like ice, Syradil’s body fell forward as Shiro quickly caught her.

Looking around her, Shiro noticed that they were now back on Earth. The corruption disappeared and colour returned to the world.

Glancing down at the unconscious Syradil, Shiro smiled helplessly while floating down to recover Revel’s body.

’One training session, two unconscious beings. One’s learning how to use Celestial Energy and the other has tapped into the power of Fallen but didn’t fall.’ Nimue sighed as Shiro shrugged.

"Well we’ll need all the strength we can get. I’m fine with Revel but Syradil’s power might need to be looked into." Shiro replied as Nimue nodded her head.

’So what do you think about Syradil’s power?’

"She’s tenacious. Her adaptation and healing power makes it hard to keep her down. Neither of us showed all our cards since doing so would weaken us before the big fight but it’ll definitely be a slight struggle." Shiro admitted since she was essentially saying that Syradil could probably suppress a god like the Raven.

Killing was a different matter since she didn’t have anything to kill a god. Though, with her new power, this might change.
