My Space-Time System-Chapter 588 Perfect counter.

The area of the war barrier was 50 meters in radius, giving the array masters ample space to construct the long-distance array.

From the view of the Ash Corps on the wall, the war barrier seemed omnipotent as they had no idea how to break it. However, those inside knew it was far from that.

The main problem Granick knew they would face was the cannons. That was why he gave them the war barrier with the sole ability to nullify energy-based attacks. This meant that physical attacks and people could pass through.

So when they sensed that the high-ranking officers of the Snyder empire were approaching them, the members of the League stepped out of the barrier to make sure the array masters didn't get caught in the fray.

In a matter of seconds, spells from the approaching generals rained down on the members of the League. Still, instead of retreating into the barrier, they stood their ground with unbothered expressions.

"Finally, someone strong." An eerie grin formed on Seraphina's face as she took out her metal hand fan filled with inscriptions.

Instantly, the inscriptions lit up with a green hue, and the steel hand fan grew to triple its size. With a light swing, a raging tornado the height of the city walls appeared and blew away the spells with ease as it went for the approaching generals.

Although with greater difficulty, the commanding officer created an equal size of the tornado to counter the incoming attack.

"So annoying!" The commander cursed at Seraphina for being an air user even though he was one.

The problem with the air element is its natural abundance. Unlike the water, light, and fire elements, air was always present no matter the situation; in fact, it even occurred in other elements. This allowed top-level Aeromancers to whip up ridiculous amounts of wind in very short periods.

"This is the end of the road for you fugitives." The Commander dashed forward as he unsheathed a bastard sword that lit up in golden flames.

"It's good that Cinder is sending out direct descendants to their deaths." Seraphina dashed forward to meet him.

DING!

The Bastard sword and the metal hand fan that had elongated into a sword collided.

BOOM!

Two terrifying auras exploded, pushing the Demigods farther away from them, and instantly destroying the ground they stood on.

Without thinking twice, both Ordained Angels flew into the sky to continue their clash.

The commander slashed the bastard sword at Seraphin releasing a sea of scorching golden flames infused with the wind element. Not backing down, Seraphina coated herself with a layer of water and blocked the attack with her blade while using both her power and that of her weapon to extract the air from the flames, thus weakening the strength of the flames.

"Is that all you can do?" A grin remained plastered on her face as the sky suddenly became cloudy and multiple water wheels appeared in mid-air.

"You talk too much." The commander said in an annoyed tone as he cast Heliokinesis.

Half of the cloudy sky cleared up and the sun shined brightly. The increased humidity dropped back to normal reducing the strength of the water wheels, levelling the playing field for his tens of solid golden flame constructs that formed in mid-air.

In no time, an onslaught of spells flew through the skies as both Angels weaved their way through the sea of spells while still attacking each other.

Reverting her blade to a fan, Seraphina released a tornado twice the size of the previous one, forcing the commander to use both wind warp and flame jump to quickly get out of the way. However, this presented an opportunity she had been looking for.

Using the wind element, Seraphina nimbly moved behind the commander who had just reappeared and slashed at his neck.

'The key to defence is a good offence!' Seeing it was impossible to block or dodge at such a position, the commander opted for the opposite.

Self-detonation!

BOOM!

His body exploded, releasing a scorching force that instantly turned everything within 100 meters range into ashes, forcing Seraphina to use Wind Warp to move as far as possible before encasing herself in a wind dome to withstand the remaining force.

Seeing the commander's body reform, Seraphina chuckled "Using that already? Seems you already know your defeat is near."

As a Fireborn (Angel realm of the fire pathway), one could reform their body twice a week, that is after exploding. So, using one of his life-saving skills meant things were not looking too good for him.

(AN: remember that it is at the Prevalent stage (2nd stage) of the angelic realm that they would either choose the creation path (Forger) or destruction path (Arsonist))

Ignoring the words of Seraphina, the commander began assessing the situation.

Normally, Seraphina's water element (her secondary element) was no match for his golden flames, but when her wind element and Epic wind weapon came into the picture, they were the perfect counter for his flames. To make matters worse, his wind element was almost useless since it couldn't match hers.

'Her wind spells are affecting my flame constructs and because of that, the mist is beginning to pile up. At this rate, I will definitely lose.' The commander thought to himself as he looked down at the fight happening below.

…

Back on the ground, even though the number of demigods had increased from 6 to 9, the members of the League didn't seem bothered.

Blackheart Lucius had returned to the protection of the war barrier, providing support to the others with his gloves that amplified his earth abilities.

"May the heavens accept your lost soul." Specter Dimitri prayed as he slammed the meteor hammer on the head of a general, turning him to ashes.

"Oh ye sinners, let your souls embrace the warmth of the lord!" With a solemn expression on his pale face, Specter Dimitri turned to the two generals tainted by his green soul flames.
