Luther snorted, and his expression soured. "I don't care if you're a madman; your end will always be gruesome so long as you cross me.
"You have nothing but your foul mouth to blame. If you didn't say so much, things might have ended better for you. I would've given you a quick, painless death!"
Luther readied himself as his hands quickly moved. Waves of darkness and light condensed in front of him.
He pushed forward, sending the image right at Fane. The pentagram formed of the powers of light and darkness constantly spun in the air.
As it flew toward Fane, it absorbed the power of light and darkness in the air!
Fane raised an eyebrow. Just looking at the power of the pentagram, Fane could tell that Luther was either fourth or fifth in terms of power among the ten of them. This explained why he was this confident.
Alas, Luther was too naive. He thought of others too simply and thought too highly of himself.
Fane let out a short laugh, temporarily discarding that thought. He had foreseen Luther's plans, after all. He did not want to stay there for too long as it would only attract too much attention, having provoked a lot of people.
These people wanted to kill him for the sake of their dignity.
Fane was never afraid of facing anyone head-on, but he was still worried that they would come after him as a group.
Fane's hands constantly moved as he formed seal after seal that slowly condensed in the air, turning into Soul Swords. Having complete mastery of Destroying the Void, he did not hold back to finish the battle quickly.
A hundred Soul Swords were formed in the air.
With a wave, the swords condensed into one massive Soul Sword. He pushed forward, and the massive Soul Sword hurtled right toward the pentagram.
Fane controlled the sword's trajectory, aiming at the lower left corner to hit where the dark energy was condensing. That was the portion of the pentagram that was black.
He could feel dense soul energy at that part, and he aimed to test what would happen if soul energy clashed against soul energy.
When Luther saw that the Soul Sword was heading to where the power of darkness was condensed, he found it deeply amusing.
He shouted behind the pentagram, "You should forget about your tricks. The power of darkness and light can interchange with each other. Don't think that you can destroy the whole thing by just destroying a part and not the whole! You can't possibly counter me!"
As he said that, the Soul Sword was already right in front of the pentagram, accurately piercing through where the power of darkness was gathered!
