The Principle Of A Philosopher By Eternal Fool “Asley”

Chapter 453: A Surprise Attack

Chapter 453: A Surprise Attack

Vestment: Thors Hammer!

As terrifying a spell as ever.

All Up!

Arent you relying too much on borrowed power?

Hmph!

No matter how much you enhance your physical abilities, you will never be a match for me. When will you realize that?

Shut the hell up! Take this!

Repeated collisions of powerful punches echoed through the air.

As before, Asley attacked Lucifer in response to the latters defense.

Lucifer showed a sense of ease, seemingly unimpressed by the lack of variation. However, everything Asley did was part of a plan to execute the Lucifer Break spell.

Your struggles are futile! I am not someone who would fall to such sluggish attacks!

Instant Transmission!

Oh! So, youre relying on the Instant Transmission spell after all! Are you sure you should be doing that?

I still have plenty of Arcane Energy! Instant Transmission!

Using the Instant Transmission spell, Asley launched multiple attacks on Lucifer. However, none of them landed.

As the two landed on the rubble of Regalia Castle, there was a decisive difference between them.

Ha ha hah Ngh!

Humanitys symbol of hope Pathetic, isnt it, Asley?

On one side, Asley, gasping for breath and on the other, Lucifer, not even expending much arcane energy.

It was an insurmountable and despair-inducing gap between them. Lucifer smiled, seemingly looking forward to the living hell that awaited Asley.

At that moment, Asley disengaged his Ultimate Limit.

It signified that Asleys preparations were complete. However, Lucifer remained unaware of this, but it was only natural for him to find Asleys actions suspicious.

Are you plotting something?

Do you think anyone would come at you without a plan?

In response, Asley retorted with the obvious answer a display of further resistance against the Devil King.

And indeed, it was something Lucifer naturally anticipated.

Well then, I will stop you with all my might.

Hmph!

Asleys expression became even more stern.

Lucifer, having learned from past experiences, was aware that Asleys devised strategies were something to be feared when he let his guard down. Despite the seemingly insurmountable gap between them, the fact that Asleys attacks could reach Lucifer demonstrated a harsh reality.RêAd lateSt chapters at novelhall.com Only

Man, I sure would appreciate it if you could stand still, but I guess thats too much to ask for

Ngh! Its not Instant Transmission, is it? I was sure you disengaged your Ultimate Limit!

Hehe I guess I can tell you what it is

Lucifers eyes widened at Asleys smug response.

Until now, Asley had maintained strict secrecy regarding his arcane arts, especially when it came to words spoken to the Devil King.

[So, even if he told me, there would be no way to defend against that magic?]

Asleys accomplishment undeniably brought about this misunderstanding in Lucifers mind.

Asley needed to buy time. After everyone had completed the preparations for Lucifer Break, after Lucifer Break had fully activated, Asley created the time needed for his survival.

Then tell me.

For Lucifer, it was to confirm the threat of the magic spell. For Asley, it was to buy the necessary time.

Both craved the obtained information and the time that came with it.

So before I went to the Magic University

What?

Lucifers question was a reaction to the angle of Asleys narrative.

However, Asley continued without concern, ensuring that everything would not go to waste.

I was researching a particular magic.

And that is what this is?

Asley nodded silently.

Id eventually achieved some results after starting school. It was limited, but it was definitely a success. But to make it fully operational, I needed an unimaginable level of magic invocation technique, arcane energy, and above all, time.

Time? Its ironic that you, of all people, need it.

Well, yeah, it took me five whole years! Which was the shortest time its ever taken me to complete such an elaborate spell, but yeah, you get the point

Consequences of having an aptitude for the martial arts, I presume.

Asley had quite a strong reaction to the words of Lucifers assumption.

Heh, you could tell?

Gaspard went wherever the arcane energies led him to Ts and Minerva, among others. However, as you know, despite how much he traveled, he never crossed paths with you. In other words, you were meant to be a warrior. I suppose that was why I never found you no matter how hard I searched when I manifested in this world

You speak of Gaspard as if hes someone else.

Yes. Only because that is the case.

I see.

Asley began silently drawing another Circle, opting not to pull any petty tricks this time.

In that Circle, Lucifer indeed saw something reminiscent of an Invisible Illusion formula.

! So that is what it is!?

Rise, A-rise, A-rise! Perfect Invisibility!

It was the invisibility spell the Eternal Fool had started researching right before the beginning of his long journey now in its complete form.
