Second World

Chapter 1262 [Bonus ] 1262. Losing

Now that all the enemies were gone. Jack could finally take a breather. He looked at Grace, who came to his side.

”Thank you!” Jack exclaimed. ”Iʼm truly saved by your arrival.”

”Hey! What about me?” Oswald complained.

”Yes, you too,” Jack said.

”Iʼm sure you would have been able to defeat them all if given time,” Grace said.

”Maybe, but then I would have to use one skill I have been saving for that main battle,” Jack said and looked over to the battle that was still raging by the plains.

”I have a lot of things to ask you, like where have you been all this time? How do you get so strong, and all that, but Iʼm afraid that all have to wait. I got a war to win here.”

”Sure, King Jack. Letʼs go to your army. They need you,” Grace said with a smile.

”You know Iʼm king?” Jack asked.

”I heard the news from where I was,” Grace answered.

”Okay, Iʼll go first,” Jack used the one skill he had been saving, Reset. He then transformed into the supreme dragon form again.

”Letʼs go together,” Grace said and activated her Inquisitorʼs skill, Angelic Possession. Wings made of light sprouted behind her.

”Right,” Jack uttered. ”Letʼs go!”

Jack, Grace, and Therras took to the sky.

”Summon me when you get there!” Oswald called. ”It looks a hell of a long distance to run.”

The flying speed of Jackʼs supreme dragon form was faster than Graceʼs. He didnʼt wait for Grace. Grace didnʼt mind getting left behind.

Jack scanned the battlefield with his dragon eyes. The situation was bad. They were outnumbered and their positioning was bad. They had been caught in a situation where they didnʼt expect a battle. After looking around for a while, he decided to go where the field commanders of the Liguritudum army and his army were fighting.

Liguritudumʼs field commander was the high marshall, Oberon. He was fighting against Temisphereʼs Lord Marshall, Emris. Emris was originally ganged up by two high-level mythical-grade opponents, Oberon and the undead Balzrim.

Balzrim was Hydrurondʼs lord dominator who had been killed when Hydrurondʼs army was fleeing the capital after their defeat. He was then resurrected by Master together with the other fallen soldiers in Messephyria. He was now just a mindless undead serving the bearer of the Necronomicon.

Emris was having trouble facing two powerful opponents at the same time. Luckily, Arlcard came to the rescue not long after. Arlcard was nine levels weaker than Balzrim, but he was still able to keep the undead lord dominator busy enough that Emris could cope with Oberon.

Jack saw Arlcard was having trouble. Both Emris and Arlcard were battling in the sky. Jack flew up higher than their altitude, before making a sharp dive.

Peniel had told Jack that the disadvantage of turning into the undead by the Necronomicon was that the resurrected person would no longer be able to associate with mana. So, even if Balzrim was a mythical draconian who could sense mana or manipulate mana during his life, he lost that ability when he died. So, Balzrim wasnʼt aware of Jack who was coming at him from his blind spot.

Jack slammed into him from above and dragged him all the way down to the ground.

”Arlcard, now!” Jack called.

Arlcard cast his Dark Lordʼs Sword at the same moment Jack used Lightning God Barrage and fired Soul Breath. The three combined attacks struck Balzrim with perfect timing. The resulting explosion took a large chunk of Balzrimʼs HP.

Balzrim was a level 82 mythical grade, so he was over-leveled for Jack. Jack took advantage of this ambush to wear him down.

While Balzrim was still disoriented, Jack cast Perpetual Lightning Judgement. The lightning disaster hit all enemies in a large area around him. He then followed up with Iron Mammoth Stampede. Twenty giant iron mammoths appeared. They immediately spread out and charged at the first enemies they saw.

These mammoths were extremely strong. The soldiers were unable to stop their charge. Whatever formation they were adopting, it turned to shit once these mammoths ran into them.

Jack also called out his spirit weapon, golden wolves, and Therras copy. He had them spread out to help the mammoths fight the nearby enemies. Jack and Arlcard then continued dealing with Balzrim. Therras and Grace who arrived later joined the fight.

Grace called Oswald using her companion token and the two played support by dealing with any soldiers who tried to aid Balzrim.
