979 All Out War (3)

"The first Rune Magician?" Qiel frowned. Even Laufey and the other two Devil Saints furrowed their eyebrows after that bold declaration.

They could clearly sense that Felicia was only a Spirit Master. Her strength was nowhere near that of the Superior Demon.

In the past, Noel and Anna had to work together to defeat a Superior Demon. And Anna was forced to use her True Spirit Body and almost died because of it. Noel's strength was also extraordinary for a Spirit Master.

Yet, they barely defeated it. To think that there would be someone bold enough that they could kill a Superior Demon with only her Spirit Master's strength…It was ridiculous.

However, what they didn't know was that Felicia was the first Rune Magician in history. While her strength was nowhere near that of the Superior Demon, the gap could be closed by the runes.

The only real gap between them was the amount of spiritual energy. A Superior Demon had more spiritual energy. Their utilization was much more powerful and contained more energy.

Even if the runes could withstand their attack, the consumption of her spiritual energy would be ridiculously high, let alone the fact that her energy reserve was far inferior to that of a Superior Demon.

If she claimed that she could kill several Peak Level Demons, they wouldn't really think much about it. However, Superior Demons were simply built differently.

"Let's test whether you have the strength to back up your words or not. Kill her!" Qiel ordered the cat to move forward. While she didn't believe that the Rune Magician was stronger than a Superior Demon, she still wanted to test the so-called Rune Magician. After all, it would also reflect their future potential.

The cat leaped into the air, trying to bring Felicia down.

Felicia flew back to avoid the cat before pointing her staff at it. "Rune Spear."

Multiple spears appeared around Felicia. She sent four of them directly toward the cat's eyes.

The cat gathered the spiritual energy around its palm to block these spears. Surprisingly, the spears were actually stronger than the cat originally thought.

*Meow?!* The cat wasn't injured, but it felt the impact and even got pushed back a little bit in mid-air.

"Momentum Rune."

Felicia didn't stop and summoned the second rune, charging the momentum of the remaining spears.

"!!!" The cat noticed the danger coming from the spear. Instead of the paw, the cat actually used the nails to strike back.

However, before launching the rune spears, Felicia added one more rune. "Multiplication Rune."

Six spears flew straight to the Multiplication Rune, and each of them split into eight spears.

*Meow?!* The cat was startled. The number was simply too many for it to stop. The cat waved its paw at lightning speed, striking as many spears as possible.

However, ten of them still passed through its defense.

"Impossible." Qiel widened her eyes in shock. The damage might not be fatal, but she couldn't say it wasn't much either. Two of the wounds were actually bleeding profusely.
