Chapter 364
Ragh'Ash's mind delved inside the crystal, only to find her own dreams and ambitions . Then, she went deeper, finding more and more shards of light representing the memories of others . She ignored those which belonged to her mentor .
Ragh'Ash's teacher wasn't even a real shaman, she had been so weak that Ragh'Ashkilled her as soon as she came of age . Most of the lives she explored were equally insignificant .
'May the gods below eat their useless souls! How long has it been since there was a shaman rather than a crystal bearer?' Ragh'Ash thought . In her desperation, she had forgotten that shamans were rare .
What she was attempting required time, but that was something she didn't have .
Lith was sick and tired of this fight . The moment Ragh'Ash stopped her movements, he cast one of the tier five Battle Mage spells he had mastered with true magic .
'As long as she has that damned crystal, she has the mana core advantage . Yet despite her use of very powerful incantations, they were all low tier ones . If I can't beat her with quantity, I'll go with quality . '
Lith had prepared Burial Ground from the moment he noticed the thundercloud . Burial Ground was a versatile spell that could be used for both offense and defense . The reason he had yet to employ it was Ragh'Ash's ability to neutralize the elements .
Powerful spells were very delicate, the slightest imbalance in the world energy would render them little more than a waste of mana . Luckily, the shaman spaced out long enough for the spell to take form and make the crystal's siphoning ability useless .
Several pillars erupted from the ground at once, surrounding the orc . Each one of them kept growing in height, while countless stone spikes emerged from the pillars and extended in every direction . Some attempted to stab the shaman, while others connected with other spikes, forming new pillars that generated even more spikes .
Thanks to Life Vision, Ragh'Ash could see that the spell was a hybrid of earth and darkness magic . The stone pillars were a conduit for the dark energies, so even standing close to them was enough to sap her life force .
'Damn demon! I found the spell I needed only to not have the opportunity to use it . ' Ragh'Ash thought . She had no time to focus on elaborate spells, the cage was getting smaller by second . Dodging the ever increasing number of spikes required her full focus .
She released a barrage of low level spells to make Burial Grounds crumble, but the darkness magic also acted as a shield, weakening her spells before they even hit . The cage repaired itself almost as soon as it was damaged .
The only thing that could counter a high tier spell was another high tier spell . Ragh'Ash's body was soon pierced by the spikes, that kept growing and ravaging her internal organs .
In a last ditch effort, she tried to make the crystal detonate, but it was too late . The exertion from using spells non stop had taken its toll . Even though her mind was still alive her body refused to obey . Her mana stopped flowing, her mana core had already started turning grey .
Her will extended no further than her thoughts while the cage shrank until all that remained of the orc shaman was mincemeat . As soon as Ragh'Ash died, Lith changed into his army uniform and stored the crystal inside Solus's pocket dimension along with the pieces of the Rock Worm's black armor .
Lith knew it was just a matter of time before someone arrived, he was preparing for the final act of his masquerade . He only kept the Gatekeeper outside, since unlike the clothes, he could make it disappear without anyone noticing .
