Loser's redo: Transmigration in a novel-Chapter 68 Dark Flame

There were only one peak rank and 4 high rank knights who were able to survive till now. But even that won't be long, the Cyclops glowing in red headed towards them frenziedly.

Through out the whole battle, the Cyclops never tried killing or harming any assassins.

The Cyclops are different from the other monsters, they can only activate their special ability after eating flesh.

Once they taste any meat, their hunger just increases. Their first special ability is that they can regenerate eating meat.

The second was to enter a berserk state in exchange for tremendous strength, that's when they glow red.

The last special ability was their eyes which could throw red plasma, but of course there is a limit in range.

The group of demihuman had split into multiple groups and fought against this monster and assassins. They first tried to finish off the assassins but still the fight was going on till now.

The mendert mercenary group had suffered many casualties, many high rank mages, priests and demihuman were assassinated or killed while they fought.

GRUHHHHH!

'Its over....'

All the knights thought this looking at cyclops. After the priests were assassinated the healing they received also vanished with them.

That's when a black spear at the same size as the one Vertel created moved swiftly towards the cyclops in the front. It directly pierced through the cyclop and continued heading somewhere.

That wasn't the end, more black spears started heading towards the Cyclops menacingly. All the last 12 Cyclops were killed immediately.

With a dazed look the knights, mercenary and assassins looked at the direction those black spears came from.

Zick stood there with the cursed sword on his hand. ｆ𝘳e𝒆w𝗲𝐛𝘯𝐨νe𝚕.cｏ𝓶

'What...? Where are the two master assassins?' The assassins couldn't believe what they were seeing.

Everyone had seen the scene where Vertel was ambushed with mana bomb and falling unconscious. That is the reason their hope was already at the bottom. They had already concluded Zick's death in their heart so the current situation bewildered everyone.

'I controlled my aura to be comparable to Vertel's aura but I could have set it a little lower.....' Zick thought this looking at the trees which were cut by his aura.

Zick turned towards the assassins and started throwing his black aura spear without any hesitation.

After one of them was killed the other assassins came out of their stupor and directly decided to retreat. This mission was a failure, the moment Zick used aura that was set in stone.

'We were deceived....he was a master swordsman too' The assassins lamented their luck while running towards the forest.

"Keuk!" Another assassin was killed making them run even faster.

Zick stared at them with a blank expression, he continued throwing aura spears ceaselessly.

SPLURT~ The last of the assassins were killed easily. They were not able to dodge the Aura spear which flew at an incredible speed.

All the mercenaries and knights stared at Zick with a blank look.

Ignoring the stare he got, Zick walked towards Serlece.

"You..you were master swordsman?" Serlece asked with wide eyes.

"No and take care of Vertel, I will come back in a minute." Saying this Zick directly turned his back on her.

"Wait....wait Nya~!" Before Serlece could continue speaking, Zick's figure had vanished.

Zick didn't care what she had to say as it would be just a waste of his time. He could feel the assassins in the forest starting to move so he hurried towards them.

'Flying would have been better but.....It would expose my magic talent clearly. Hmm...and now that I have exposed my strength my movements will be watched by a lot of people.'

But there were benefits in revealing his strength too. There will be less people picking a fight with Zick in the academy and he could fight a lot more freely in the future.

'Still reveling my strength is better than not revealing it in my current situation, if I try to hide it, my movement would just be restricted to a large extant and I don't want to hide my strength personally too.' Pondering to himself, Zick moved towards the assassin's presence.

"[Acceleration]"

Zick's figure blurred again as it started to move at an insane speed. He reached where the assassin was moving along with the cyclop in a few seconds.

Seeing Zick reaching where he was, the assassin with black hood appeared flustered. He could not sense Zick's presence at all.

"Kill him!" The assassin ordered the Cyclops hurriedly.

But suddenly the assassin's body froze as if time had stopped. His body started shuddering immensely after that.

"Let's see if your taming collars are superior to my dragon fear." Zick looked at the cyclop with still a deadpan expression.

"Kneel." Zick spoke out leisurely.

PLOP!

All the five Cyclops here kneeled at once. Seeing this, Zick looked at the assassin, probably the one who controlled the cyclops too. 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨ｍ

? 'Well no one is near me so I should try out another one of my magic.' Scanning his surroundings once, Zick extended his hand.

"[Dark flame]" Zick spoke out the magic name.

A black fireball appeared above Zick's palm, he had created this flame after experimenting for a while. Fusing different elements was harder than he had thought. If he didn't concentrate enough while fusing the fire and dark elements there is a chance that an explosion might occur.

The black fireball moved towards the assassin frozen in place following Zick's will. The moment the black fireball touched the assassin it expanded and covered his whole figure.

Without a sound the assassin vanished within it.

'Even peak rank assassin physique is really weak....I should try fighting a master swordsman in the future to check out my magic strength.' Zick turned towards the Cyclops kneeling in front of him.

Slowly five rocks rose from the ground and started spinning while heating up.

"[Rock bullet]''

The five rocks sprung forward just like a bullet blowing the Cyclops head to smithereens.

There are also other magic like this [Rock bullet], like [mana bullet] one of the simplest magic which could be used here. Zick also had created a magic fusing the fire and light elements. It is different from [Dark flame] which focuses on destructive specs. The [White flame] excels at speed.

Putting all the loot within his space ring, Zick headed back towards the grass plain. Getting out of the forest, he could see the situation had stabilised than before.

Jerg had also finished taking care of the two master assassins. But still casualties weren't anything to scoff at, there were only 6 people who survived from Zick's group.

The mendert mercenary group also suffered heavy losses. More than half of their forces were killed.

Walking towards the place where all the wounded people were being healed, a thought appeared in Zick's head.

'Ah....should I visit Jarvin once before leaving the first continent?'
