Chapter 171: Uxtan Kingdom vs The Kingdom of Twilight (16)
As the sun crept from atop the distant tree line, a glistening purple liquid sparkled in the distance. It was like a distant galaxy that you could only see in photos or with a mighty telescope.
But when I narrowed my eyes in the direction of the purple liquid, I saw Zehar on his plagued horse, drowning the next Heroes. For some reason, they weren't taking any damage at all, and I had trouble pinpointing why.
When I looked closer at Zehar's face, I saw that he was confused as well. His poison has acidic properties, which should've instantly melted the next heroes, but for some reason, they were still alive.
CRRRRRK
Ice burst from the bodies of the heroes, freezing the acidic purple poison that Zehar had created. My eyes widened at the unexpected event, causing me to [Inspect] all the heroes once more… I needed to find the root of this event.
After searching through every status, I finally landed on the root… the next Light Hero.

…
"Oh… what is this? Adrenaline? Hehehehe… HAHAHAHA!" I laugh out loud before dashing towards the next Light Hero.
I deactivate my feathered wings and activate my dragon wings.
Massive black draconic wings with veins of ice appear from my back. Just one flap of them was enough to appear right in front of Zehar, but I also almost overshot it.
Each wing was as big as my body, and they almost looked like a webbed claw from all the tight scaly skin. The light blue veins were flowing with below zero ice, filling me with a calming sensation, which negated most of the adrenaline that had built up.
"Master, what is going on? Why won't these fucking humans die!?" Zehar seethes in anger.
"It seems that the Emperor Spirit of Ice has revealed the Light Heroes secret title and given him full control over it… do you want to test yourself?" I asked Zehar, who continued to seethe in anger.
"Yes… I must kill them. If I don't kill them I'll kill myself,"
Dude… you know what? I'm not going to say anything…
"Let me give you some buffs since you might struggle… After that, I permit you to go all out. You'll be the center of attention… Are you ready?"
"Yes, come on. Give it to me!" Zehar shouts.
"[Grand Ally Haste]... [Grand Ally Empower]... [Grand Ally Greater Mana Flow]..."
I also took some of the blood-red aurae from my army and coated Zehar with it, filling his body with a new center of power. The other buffs that I applied made the veins in his muscles bulge and then contract before releasing a bit of steam.
"Okay, go ahead and kill them," I say.
"As you wish,"
Zehar orders his horse to step forward as he snaps his fingers. But, the frozen poison was still within his power so, he was able to crack the frozen poison slowly before it split apart, shattering upon hitting the water below.
The heroes immediately jolted up and gasped for air. Then, they were all on their knees, serving for a perfect attack that would catch them at their lowest.
"[Sea of Poison]," I hear Zehar mutter.
A literal sea of poison started to rise from below him. It merged with the water below and slowly started to raise the actual water level of the swamp. The murky blood-red water immediately turns into a murky dark purple that gave off an even fouler stench.
The heroes panicked for a second, but the next Light Hero calmed them down. He seems to scroll through his status and grasp his new skills extremely fast. Just one scan was enough for him to know which skill protected him and his party against the acidic poison.
He informs his party members and activates a few more skills that coat his sword in light and ice… a strange combination. His party members were struggling greatly due to their depleted health, mana, and stamina that ate away at their mentality.
The next Healing Hero had already passed out from exhausting her mana, but the rest were basically on the brink of passing out as well.
Their only hope was Tayber, the next Light Hero, who still had about half his mana and stamina left. His health was pretty low, but it wasn't life-threatening.
Zehar seemed to still seethe in anger as he raised the water level of the swamp even higher.
I didn't want this to affect the battlefield, so I used [Grand Water Magic] to keep the blood-red water from fusing with the poison and then used that to block the way for any poison to assimilate with the swamps water.
After all the training that I did with [Grand Water Magic], this was but a simple task since all I had to do was raise the density of the water. The poison water was a tad bit thicker, so this was necessary to keep the poison from fusing with the battlefield's water.
I shifted my attention back to the heroes and saw that they split up and tried to attack Zehar from all sides. The tank/berserker decided to fall back with the Healing Hero since she would only be a burden.
"Interesting," I mutter before taking a few steps back.
All the heroes closed in on Zehar, who still arrogantly sat on top of his plagued horse, looking down on the humans.
Once the heroes got close enough, I could see purple liquid seep off of Zehars baggy clothes.
Well, they actually just melted straight through his clothes which slightly surprised him.
SHING
The heroes had all swung their weapons at different areas of Zehars body… but they went straight through him.
Zehar's body had completely turned into poison, but he still kept his humanoid shape. He just looked like a dripping blob monster made entirely of poison.
But as the blob of poison smiled, it started to freeze from the ice that the Light Hero had coated around his blade. Surprised, Zehar reverted to his normal form and jumped off his horse.
"*sigh*... he's still underestimating them. Though he might tell himself not to, he's still subconsciously doing it… what a cocky ass kid," I mutter.
The poison had risen to Zehar and the hero's chest level, but instead of fighting while wading in the sea of poison, they all jumped up and landed on top of it.
Zehar was just able to manipulate his poison to such a condensed form under his feet where he could stand, but the remaining heroes were standing on a thin layer of ice created by the next Light Hero.
"What are you going to do now? I know you can't just use [Poison Secretion] and [Deadly Poison Mist] to kill them all… so what are you going to do?" I mutter to myself while spectating from the air.
It seems the heroes fighting Zehar haven't noticed me yet cause if they did, they might run away in fear…
Zehar turns into the poison blob once more, sinking into the sea of poison below. It took me only a couple of seconds to realize what he was trying to do, and my grin only got wider.
The heroes frantically looked around, with the next Fire Hero and the next Wind Hero slipping slightly on the ice. The Light Hero noticed it, but he didn't have enough control over the skill to make the ice non-slip…
Actually, you might need [Grand Ice Magic] to control the properties of ice...
Suddenly, a purple blob burst out of the poison next to the Wind Hero, but she reacted instantly by gathering wind around her knife and throwing a blade of air towards him. It cut his poison body in half, but it quickly connected back as he sunk into the poison once again.
This time he reappeared right next to the Fire Hero and spat a stream of poison that connected with his leg. The Fire Hero's spear, which red flames coated, slashed towards Zehar, but once again, he just reconnected his body with the poison below.
And due to the scalding and burning injury, the next Fire Hero was forced to take a knee, allowing for another opening for Zehar.
Zehar also saw this and immediately took it by slashing at his head with a blade of poison. The blade of poison was coated in wind and fire that swirled in different directions… but something stopped it.
A wall of ice was erected in front of the hero, blocking Zehar's attack.
And once Zehar sunk back into the poison, I heard the Light Hero say one thing…
