My World Traveling System: The Harbinger of Death

Chapter 515: Fourth Fight: Stein & Bernard VS Cathyl & Vheslia 2

-----

Vheslia and Cathyl had begun their fight against the two Vampires, Stein and Bernard!

However, Cathyl had rashly rushed forward, telling Vheslia to cover her back and fight with the "skinny one" completely breaking their teamwork because the Minotaur girl preferred 1v1 fights.

Vheslia sighed, she knew that Cathyl was like this, so she had half-expected an outcome like this one as well. But it didn't hurt her to have hopes that such a thing wasn't going to be like this, right? But well, at the end it was still like that, and it ended making her regretful to even have high hopes on this only to end having her hopes shattered.

"You're truly an idiot sometimes!" she sighed.

And right after that, Vheslia was attacked by Bernard, it seems that the "skinny man" knew very well that he was going to fight her for some reason, and he showed his ability to manipulate shadows and meld into them, appearing right behind her and almost ambushing her with deadly poisoned knaves!

However, Vheslia was sharp! Her third eye shone with bright purple light as she conjured her magic, coating herself with defense shadow and dark magic, which bounced off the powerful magical knives in time, she was able to pull through his ambushing assault, as Bernard was left surprised.

Nonetheless, as Vheslia glanced at Cathyl fight against the slow Stein, she decided that there was no point in worrying about that dork that always does things rashly, as she decided to quickly fight Bernard and show him what she was made of.

"Hm, your manipulation of dark magic is interesting. You're capable of employing it for defense? I've never seen such a thing." Said the voice of a gentleman.

"You're not bad either… Those daggers were filled with toxins… you're not a normal dagger user." Said Vheslia.

"Haha, you flatter me. Let's see if you can discern the toxins in this one." Said Bernard, as his cape waved and shadows emerged from them, he stored countless daggers inside his shadows, so many he was able to even shower Vheslia with them!

"Are you serious just going to shower me with daggers?!" cried Vheslia.

Vheslia found herself fighting against another Shadow and Dark Magic user! Bernard seemingly had the power to travel through shadows as if they were water and he could dive through them, and also had a special cape.

This cape seemed to possess a pocket dimension within the shadows he covered it with, maybe something similar to the Shadow Storage Spell. But that spell actually had a rather limited amount of storage power, and what Bernard showcased to have was a massive amount of poisoned knives. He was throwing them at her as projectiles, as his cape waved around!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

Vheslia erected a spherical barrier around her made of semi-transparent darkness, which she reinforced with several layers of darkness around it, the knives easily bounced off the barrier without issues, as Vheslia quickly began to activate the Demonic Runes around her body, this man was way too fast and could surprise her at any moment, she needed the extra boost in power!

FLASH!

Several runes activated over her body, activating many magic circles whose effects enhanced Vheslia's physical power to greater levels she had never seen before.

Her entire body was enhanced, her muscles felt stronger and harder, her bones became more resilient yet lighter, and her blood was pumping at an incredible speed, turning her pale white skin slightly red! Her long purple hair waved around majestically, as her eyes flashed with crimson-red light.

"I'll show you I am not just a side character." She thought, smilgin confidently as her shadow power began to overflow from her body!

FLAAAASH!

"Hmph, you think that barriers that protect you?"

Suddenly, Vheslia was surprised as Bernard emerged right behind her! But how?! She had erected barriers to not let him get through, but how was he able to get through the barriers?

"H-How?!" asked Vheslia in shock, as she pointed her staff at Bernard but his body moved at an incredible speed, his long and skinny legs kicked Vheslia's staff but her grip was stronger than he thought, without managing to kick away the staff, he decided to spin around his legs and clash over Vheslia's chest with all his might!

CLAAAAASH!

"Uagh…!"

BOOM!

Vheslia clashed over the walls of her own barrier, tanking herself that she activated the body-enhancing runes around her body! She looked at Bernard as magic began to flow around her in many shapes!

"Isn't it obvious? …Fine, I'll amuse you. Shadow Walk is my Innate Ability. With it, any shadow or dark surface becomes an area where I can dive into! There's no escape, no matter what you do! And because you're a shadow mage, that's even better for me!" laughed Bernard. His skinny and long legs jumped as if he were a cricket, flashing towards Vheslia at an incredible speed and reaching her!

CLASH!

However, Vheslia summoned something, a massive being behind her emerged, resembling a Dark Knight made of spectral darkness, its armor-like body emanated a strong and deathly presence, and its empty helmet released two crimson-red dots of eerie light…!

"Hm?!"

"Greet my Aura Guardian!"

"Aura… Guardian? (Ah! Like that other Oni woman… She also had something similar, but I thought that Aura was a thing that physical fighters developed to enhance their strength, she's a magic user yet she has an Aura?!)" thought Bernard, as a massive dark axe suddenly tried to cut him in half!

CLASH!

Bernard managed to jump away in time, but his cape was caught in the axe and was torn apart, a large piece of it was cut off, and Vheslia quickly stole it into her Shadow Storage.

"Hmph, you know how expensive this magic cape was?!" he asked.

"I don't really care. We can buy you a better one after I beat you." Said Vheslia.

"Heh, confident little demoness…" sighed Bernard, his eyes flashed with bright crimson-red light.

This battle was just starting!
