New Life, New Task: I'll Be A Mom Then!!!
Chapter 297 Carolina’s Power (1)Eli did not respond but she knew that she truly did not have any luxury to help others with the task at hand.
Seeing that Eli understood the situation, Mishael gave her the entire blueprint, a map, and a set of instructions, "I leave with you this winged beast to carry you to the last two sites and upon completely finishing the task, you are to activate the array on the last array monument immediately."
"I understand…" Eli received everything with haste and did not see Mishael off, the faster she ended the task the earlier she could make a difference for everyone in this fight.
For now, the only thing that she could do was to finish her part of the battle, and that was to infuse her spiritual energy into the remaining arrays.
Gritting her teeth, she climbed on top of the array and started reinforcing the runes while embedding her spiritual powers in the process.
In reality, arrays were just like coding a program. The runes represent the language used by software and the conditions and spell were the logic and algorithms that make the array behave the way it was intended.
The blueprint made by Mishael was understandable and easy to implement, as such he was confident that Eli could pull this task off.
On the Temple grounds, there was a strange change that was happening to Empress Carolina as she continued to curse.
"I'll kill you all! All of you!!! Kill!! Kill!! Kill!!!!" She cursed them as black and purple waves of mana started to congeal in her body.
It circulated from her head, all the way to her toes then it all went back to the place where her heart was.
"Killing you is just a piece of cake…" Her voice changed drastically, incredibly low, nasty, and sinister. She was like a messenger of death as her amethyst eyes glowed like it was a monster lying in the dark. "But do not want you to die without seeing how powerful the Vesala were. Your last moments will be you finally understand the extent of our powers!"
Rumble!!!!
The circulation of the black and purple mana rose up in the sky, swirling violently and rapidly, like a little whirlpool of air slowly becoming a ferocious tornado. Empress Carolina was the one standing at the center of it, like the goddess of disaster ready to strike the land.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe nearby knights and priests were the first ones to feel the first wave of attack, a purple wind blade striking their bodies making them fly several meters away from their initial spot.
"Puff!!" They let out mouthfuls of purple blood indicating that a strong, fast-acting curse had hit them along with the wind blade.
"Quick, take the injured and administer the medicine." High Priest Enoch did not dare to let the others get near the Empress whose deathly aura became intense as the second went by.
He commanded everyone to stand back and go inside the barrier which had already been activated. He also immediately flew towards Kazimir who was frozen in shock upon seeing the transformation of his mother.
The black vine had long captured him, however, because of the utter bafflement, his mind no longer cared for the vine that was already restraining him.
"Keep yourself together young man! That was no longer your mother!" High Priest Enoch struck the coiling vines with his staff and immediately destroyed the portion of the vines that were already wrapping Kazimir's body.
But the vines were still working as soon as Kazimir was out of its grasp, without any choice, High Priest threw him down into the defensive barrier down below the Temple Grounds.
The vine followed Kazimir all the way down, however, the defensive barrier effectively stopped the vines' attempt to break through.
"High Priest!" The servants of the Temple became worried as it was now only High Priest Enoch who was outside the barrier.
They wanted him to also come down and protect himself from the curse attacks by the Empress.
"No… all others who still have spiritual powers, conserve your energy and continue to reinforce the barrier until Mishael finishes their task." High Priest Enoch strictly commanded them, the only thing that he could do was to lessen the burden that the barrier would take from the Empress' attacks.
What he feared the most had already happened, Empress Carolina was far stronger than they expected her to be when she fully used the curses, he was suddenly worried about how strong the others became on the other parts of the battlefield.
"Heh… You think you and your people could withstand my attacks with just you and that pitiful barrier?" Empress Carolina taunted High Priest Enoch's futile effort to keep his people safe.
After saying those words, she created giant earth boulders. Just one of these boulders could immediately crush the entire worship place of the Temple!
A cold wave of terror made Kazimir almost fall on his knees out of the extreme fright of seeing those boulders covering the sky, threatening to crush him and the people at any time.
High Priest Enoch was already preparing a large-scale spell that could definitely destroy a portion of these boulders. He tried to calculate which of these boulders would fall outside the bounds of the temple and could potentially hit other innocent people, but reality hit him - he could not protect them all!
Still, he activated his wide-area destructive spells and managed to clear three-fourths of the boulders rushing down at them.
Boom! Grumble!!!
A giant white light beam crashed into them in a rain of giant boulders, clearing the morning sky.
The rest of the boulders still fell on the defensive barrier and created ripples indicating that the defensive barrier managed to take care of the rest that High Priest Enoch missed.
"Hmmm, it seems like you were a little stronger than I thought, High Priest!" Empress Carolina raised her brows in interest as she continued, "Well let's see how long you could withstand these!"
This time, the number of boulders doubled and it was now coated with a layer of purple light, indicating that it contained curse power.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Rumble!
High Priest Enoch did not have time to complete his spell and had only managed to destroy the area within his five-meter radius.
This meant that not only did he manage to lessen the burden on the defensive barrier, the number of boulders that would fall into the temple grounds almost tripled!
"No…" He cried out in alarm, extremely in distress, there was no way that the people on the ground would survive.
For not only did he know that the boulders doubled, it was far stronger than the first wave, as such even his spell was not able to do much but defend himself!
Turning his back to Empress Carolina, he tried to descend down to the Temple grounds to rescue the people out of desperation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Tsk tsk… High Priest, did anyone ever tell you not to carelessly show your back to the enemy?" Empress Carolina saw the High Priest frantically rushing down. She pointed her finger and conjured a tiny black-purple ball.
She shot it towards the unguarded High Priest.
"High Priest behind you!!!" The people below panicked as they saw what was about to happen. The situation was already dire, above them were massive giant boulders that could finish them in a second, and the sight of their High Priest dying as they helplessly watched.
"Someone… is there someone who could help us…" The priests cried out to the heavens, pleading and begging in their hearts to turn the seemingly impossible situation.
"Mother… stop all of this!!! Kazimir almost tore his vocal cords in calling out to his mother; however, the moment their eyes met, he finally understood why High Priest Enoch told her that it was no longer his mother who they were fighting against.
The look in her eyes was distant and cold, there was not even a trace of acknowledgment that he was her son in her eyes. Someone had taken over his mother's body!
As the realization hit upon Kazimir and the rest, so did the boulder and the purple-black ball moved towards their respective targets.
Doomed… They were really doomed. They closed their eyes and covered their ears, accepting the fact that the boulders would crush them right at that moment.
However… a second had passed and the expected time of impact had not come.
Three seconds passed… Five seconds… Ten!!! Nothing came down to crush them all.
Kazimir and the people finally opened their eyes and saw what was happening. With their bodies still shaking in fear, their eyes slowly darted up to see the bright sky and countless speckles of rainbow-colored mana falling down gently like rain.
There they saw a distant figure, standing far above the sky, where the highest boulder could have been formed.
Then on his side was the High Priest who was still in shock about how fast everything had happened.
No one who had ever witnessed this would ever forget what they have just seen, even Empress Carolina who was also looking above.
Red hair as deep as blood, a face as cold as ice and an aura as valiant and as bloodthirsty as the strongest hero ever known.
A pair of crystal blue eyes that were the noblest symbols of the monarch of the land, staring down at her as if he had already seen through the depths of her soul.
The person whom she had always regarded as trash and an eyesore perfect to be bullied and ridiculed.
It was none other than Leon, the third prince of the Empire and the son of the woman she hated the most, - Queen Tehila!
