Extra's Magic



Swish...

My Blade tore through a Shadow, leaving nothing but remnants of its former darkness in its wake.

"..."

Looking at my Shadowy Blade, I couldn't help but smirk.

Whoosh...

Another Shadow lunged at me, however, I quickly got rid of it with a swift and precise strike of my Blade.

I was already out of the Spire where I obtained the Shadow Mana Art, however, now, I was on my way toward the Boss of this Dungeon.

Although I could've left the Dungeon instantly, I wasn't planning to let the Shadow creatures keep spilling into the real world.

Swish...

Suddenly, a giant Shadow manifested in front of me, its presence overwhelming.

It was the size of an elephant and had two massive glowing obsidian eyes that pierced through the darkness.

However, it only took a single swing to reduce it to nothing more than a fading memory of darkness.

Swish...

The echoes of random sounds resonated in the air as I made my way toward the looming runes of the massive coliseum. The once vibrant symbols etched into the stone now appeared faded and worn, much like the arena itself.

Tap... Tap...

As I drew nearer, an eerie silence enveloped the surroundings, broken only by the soft shuffling of my footsteps on the ancient, sandy floor. The Coliseum, which once must have been teeming with spectators and warriors, now lay barren and desolate. It was a haunting sight, a testament to the passage of time and the decaying glory of a long-forgotten era.

My eyes scanned the rows of empty viewer seats, each one carved with intricate designs that spoke of a time when this place was the heart of grand battles and heroic feats. Now, they stood as mere remnants of the past, crumbling under the weight of history.

With a leap, I vaulted over the railing and descended onto the sandy arena floor. The sand crunched beneath my boots, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of solitude in this vast emptiness. The arena stretched out before me, its boundaries marked by the faded lines that had once defined the battleground for countless warriors.

I took a moment to look around, my gaze sweeping across the empty expanse. The only company I had were the distant echoes of my own footsteps, a stark contrast to the thunderous applause that must have once reverberated through these stone walls.

In the distance, I spotted the raised platform that marked the center of the arena. It was there that I expected to find the Boss of this Dungeon, the final challenge I had come to face.

With determination in my heart, I set off towards the platform, each step echoing through the silent coliseum. The runes that adorned the walls seemed to watch me with quiet curiosity, as if they, too, were waiting to see the outcome of this long-forgotten confrontation.

As I neared the platform, I couldn't help but wonder what had transpired in this arena in days long gone by.

Tap...

However, I was snapped out of my thoughts as soon as I placed my foot on the grey sand of the arena.

Just as I took a step onto the platform, the ground beneath me trembled. The sand shifted, and a deep, guttural rumble filled the air. I froze my senses on high alert. Something was wrong, something beyond what I had anticipated.

And then, with a deafening roar, the sand erupted in a violent shower of grains, revealing the monstrosity that had been lurking beneath. It was a Shadow Deathworm, a colossal creature of darkness and despair.

The Deathworm's body was a twisted fusion of shadow and sand, its immense form undulating as it emerged from the ground. Its skin was as dark as the abyss, and it gleamed with an otherworldly sheen. Its eyes were the size of boulders, radiant orbs of crimson that blazed with malevolence.

Rows of serrated teeth lined its gaping maw, and from its sides sprouted countless shadowy tendrils that writhed like snakes, each one tipped with a razor-sharp point. Its hide was adorned with ancient runes, pulsating with dark energy, and they seemed to writhe and twist as if they had a life of their own.

The Deathworm's presence was overwhelming, a palpable aura of darkness that threatened to suffocate me.

Roar...

It let out another earth-shaking roar.

However, I didn't feel any fear.

"Abyss Shadow: Shadowy Blade!"

"Abyss Shadow: Shadow Ascendance!"

I used my Mana Art to summon my armor and blade with a smile spreading across my face.

With my Abyss Shadow abilities fully activated, I stood ready to face the monstrous Shadow Deathworm that had erupted from the depths of the arena. The adrenaline surged through my veins, and my heart pounded with a mixture of excitement and determination.

The colossal creature's obsidian eyes locked onto me, and its immense form reared up, towering over me like a nightmarish colossus. I knew that this battle would test my skills to their limits, but I was prepared.

The Deathworm lunged forward, its gaping maw filled with rows of razor-sharp teeth aiming straight for me. With lightning reflexes, I leaped to the side, narrowly avoiding its deadly bite. The sand beneath me shifted and crumbled as the Deathworm's attack missed, leaving a gaping hole in the arena floor.

I quickly recovered, landing gracefully on the sandy ground. The Shadow Deathworm turned to face me, its massive body coiling as it prepared for another assault. This time, I needed to be faster.

I sprinted toward the creature, my Shadowy Blade gleaming with dark energy as I swung it in a wide arc. The blade sliced through the air, leaving a trail of shadows in its wake. With a resounding clash, it met one of the Deathworm's writhing tendrils, the dark energies colliding in a fierce clash of power.

As I pushed against the creature's appendage, I could feel the intense darkness of the Deathworm's essence trying to overpower me. But I wasn't about to let that happen. With a surge of Shadow Mana, I channeled my energy into my blade, forcing the tendrils back and driving the creature away.

The Deathworm roared in frustration, its crimson eyes burning with anger. It wasn't going to make this battle easy, and I welcomed the challenge.

With renewed determination, I launched myself into the air, flipping over the Deathworm's massive form and landing on its back. The creature writhed and twisted, trying to dislodge me, but I clung to its shadowy hide like a determined parasite.

As I clung to the writhing back of the Shadow Deathworm, I could feel the raw power coursing through its dark form. It was a battle of wills, my determination against its malevolence.

Swish...

The Deathworm's massive tendrils swayed and thrashed in an attempt to shake me off, but I held on tightly, my grip unyielding. With each moment that passed, I could sense the ebb and flow of the creature's dark energy, and I knew I had to act quickly.

Summoning the power of my Abyss Shadow abilities, I channeled Shadow Mana into my Blade, causing it to pulse with an even darker intensity. With a swift and precise strike, I plunged the blade deep into the Deathworm's hide, the shadowy energies sizzling as they made contact.

Roar...

The creature let out a deafening roar of agony, its entire form convulsing in pain. I could feel the tremors coursing through its body as I continued to drive my blade deeper, aiming for its core. The runes on its hide writhed and contorted, struggling to resist the onslaught of my Mana.

In that moment, I realized that this was a battle not just of physical prowess, but of the mastery of Shadow Mana. I had to tap into the depths of my power and push beyond my limits.

With a surge of concentration, I summoned a torrent of Shadow Mana, enveloping the Deathworm's form in a shroud of darkness. The tendrils that had been attempting to dislodge me recoiled in the face of this overwhelming power, their tips withering and fading.

I continued to press forward, my blade cutting through the layers of shadowy flesh, drawing closer to the heart of the beast. The Deathworm's crimson eyes blazed with fury and desperation as it realized that it was facing an adversary unlike any it had encountered before.

As I neared the core, I could feel the resistance of the creature growing stronger. It was as if the very essence of the abyss was fighting back, trying to protect its inner sanctum. But I was unyielding, my determination unwavering.

With one final, powerful thrust, my Blade pierced the heart of the Shadow Deathworm. The creature let out a final, ear-piercing scream, its massive form convulsing in a cataclysmic explosion of darkness.

I was thrown clear of the explosion, landing in a heap on the sandy arena floor. The shockwave from the Deathworm's demise rippled through the coliseum, sending ancient stones tumbling.

As the dust settled, I slowly rose to my feet, my armor battered and my body bruised. But I had emerged victorious. The Shadow Deathworm was no more, its darkness vanquished
