Chapter 1496
Tsssk!
The keen sword aura slashed the assaulting freezing aura like it was tearing an animal pelt .
The freezing aura shattered upon contact but didn't disappear, instead reforming into a frost cloud, enveloping everything within a 5 meter range .
Gak, Tss Tss!
A layer of ice quickly formed on the ground .
The magistrate moved outside the icy range in a flash, looking at the frozen sleeve on his left hand and unable to hold back his smile .
"Ickart, you are much more creative than I last saw you, but you are still too slow . "
The magistrate raised his right hand, which held his sword . A dash of red was slowly fading off on that glaring longsword, as though the blood was being absorbed by the blade .
The sharp longsword buzzed and a painful sensation appeared on the side of Ickart's abdomen .
Puk!
A large amount of blood gushed out .
Ickart moved his hand over the wound on his abdomen, casted a layer of ice to freeze the bleeding .
Cold aura lingered on his bloody hand after the patch up . The freezing aura in the area then spread a few times quicker, the freezing range expanding several times and catching the magistrate in an instant .
"I was just saying that you are being creative . Seems like I was wrong… You and you little tricks, sacrificing the power of your freezing aura and going after speed and range . Too bad, it seems like you've forgotten powerless ice is nothing to me!"
Amid the spreading freezing aura, the magistrate's smile didn't change . He lunged towards Ickart, appearing in front of him in a flash, his sword swinging down .
The sharp stinging sensation from the blade appeared again on Ickart and before the sharp sword even touched him, multiple bloody cuts had appeared all over his body .
The sharp sword of the magistrate didn't land on Ickart though, blocked by a bloody ice sword right in front of his face after a loud clunk .
Chang!
The ice sword that Ickart formed from his hand firmly received the slash from the magistrate .
"Eh? Is this a new trick? Not bad!"
The magistrate was stunned for a moment before praise came out from his mouth .
"Better things are yet to come!" the quiet Ickart said coldly .
The second his cold words subsided, layers of freezing aura spread from his bloody ice sword . It didn't just freeze the magistrate's sword, it froze his palm too and that was not the end, the freezing aura starting to spread further on the magistrate's arm .
"Praise-worthy! You should really utilize your powers this way, it's more flexible!"
The magistrate nodded and spoke like a senior praising his junior, though the tone of his words infuriated Ickart .
"SHUT UP!"
A loud shout later, a brand new ice sword formed inIckart's other hand and was thrusted towards the magistrate's throat .
However, when the second ice sword was a fist away from piercing the magistrate's throat, he sighed .
"Seems like you are still unable to face your past . "
Wung!
Amid his sigh, the frozen longsword buzzed violently .
All the frozen ice was shattered to pieces instantly, the bloody ice sword that engaged with the buzzing sword breaking into multiple pieces and falling on the ground; the owner of the ice sword followed soon after .
Bam!
There wasn't any fancy technique involved . Ickart, who was blasted off by the buzz, fell on the ground heavily . The frozen wound on his abdomen broke and the broken ice sword of his plunged into the ground right beside his face .
Pak! A clear impact sound was produced when the ice sword struck the ground .
Ickart, who wanted to get up and counterattack, quivered when the ice sword grazed his face .
He looked at the broken ice sword beside him and quickly reacted to the situation, as he wasn't an idiot . He looked up with clenched teeth and words escaped the seams of his teeth, "Are you pitying me?"
"No . I just didn't control it well enough…"
Before the magistrate finished his words, he appeared before the fallen Ickart in a flash, the sword in his hand stabbed towards his chest .
Ickart was stunned, never thinking death would arrive so suddenly . He shut his eyes .
The choices he made back then allowed him to know what kind of danger-filled path he had chosen; death was inevitable, so dying under the sword was nothing for him .
At least he had done his part .
However, the expected death didn't arrive . Instead a warmth appeared on his face, Ickart opened his eyes .
The magistrate's sword was stabbed into his shadow . The shadow, which should be an inanimate object, started to twist .
At the same time, the magistrate's shadow stabbed his own chest with the shadow sword . The warmth that Ickart felt on his face was the blood from the magistrate's mouth .
"LEE?!"
Ickart cried out loud and fired an ice sword at the shadow, but the shadow was much more cunning and agile .
After the shadow condensed itself into a ball, it returned to a normal shadow . Further away at the street corner, a figure donning a heavy and thick outfit walked out .
Beside the bulky figure was Aligino, laughing in delight .
"Magistrate Lee . One of the Resistance that opposed the leader, Ickart . Are you both a little surprised?" said Aligino as he walked forth .
Aligino stopped when he was around 10 meters from the two of them, the optimal safe distance that he came up with after meticulous calculations .
"Surprised? A little I guess . Who would've thought you bastard would still have help from the outside . "
Magistrate Lee was seriously injured but he was still looking happy and joyous as ever .
"Traitor!"
Compared to the magistrate, Ickart was much more direct .
"Traitor? I've never betrayed you bunch of naive fools, for I have never truly joined you people! All of you are just pawns that I've been using," said Aligino with a predominant bearing .
Aligino waved his finger at Ickart and poked himself on the cheeks, his blurred out face becoming twisted and his voice wicked .
"That slap just now is really painful! But I don't mind because I'll take all four of your limbs as compensation! My lord, please…"
Aligino turned around to ask his collaborator for help, not willing to put himself through the trouble .
However, the moment he turned around, he was stunned on the spot, because the bulky collaborator that he relied on the most was in the hands of another person .
No extra words were needed to describe that person because the black feather mantle was his iconic look .
2567!
Without a second thought, Aligino turned around and ran for his life .
Aligino had obviously activated some items, running with explosive speed and flying away like a beam of light . His figure instantly became a small dot within sight .
Meanwhile, Kieran wasn't too concerned about Aligino's absence, instead placing his attention on Magistrate Lee and Ickart .
