Chapter 372 Change

*Bam!*

Noel and Anna landed on the ground safely. They looked around to find their target.

"Noel!" Anna shouted, pointing toward the right side. There were more demons over there, so it would be perfect for hunting. This way, they could lessen the burden on the wall.

Of course, Noel didn't reject that idea, considering he wanted to kill as many demons as possible.

He nodded to Anna while glancing to the side, looking at the demons who ferociously rammed their bodies into the translucent wall. They couldn't break through it no matter what. All they could do was stare at Noel and the others who were practically killing their kin.

"I'll be leading the charge as usual." Anna raised her sword while releasing her lightning. She took a deep breath and released her instinct.

As expected, the word 'kill' still rang in her head, but after knowing the difference between pure instinct and the one from her teacher, the word didn't affect her too much.

'My mind is clearer, but my sharpness remains the same. I should continue removing the brainwash from my past life to release the full strength of this instinct.'

Despite fighting intent emanating from her eyes, Noel had a hard time feeling the killing intent that usually fused with it. In fact, sometimes, he couldn't help but shudder when he felt the killing intent.

'She has changed?' Noel frowned while taking out his sword. Although he felt the change, he didn't know whether this was a good change or not. To prove it, he would have to fight alongside her first.

Looking at the numerous demons, Anna gathered her lightning around her sword. Surprisingly, she also noticed the difference in the flow of Spiritual Energy after controlling her instinct.

"Mhm?" The flow of her lightning was overbearing. It wanted to crush, destroy or kill anything before it. But this time, the flow was subtle, allowing her to gain more control over the lightning.

Curious, she planted the sword to the ground, releasing all that lightning in a fan-shaped area.

The lightning shattered the ground like it did previously, but the power decreased slightly. In exchange, there were more lightning sparks on the ground, allowing her to target more demons in a single attack.

Each lightning hit a Low Level Demon and electrocuted them. Those who didn't have a good defense immediately fell down. Their bodies were numb and they had a hard time moving.

"This is" Anna widened her eyes in amus.e.m.e.nt. 'The lightning might have grown weaker, but it's perfect for electrocuting the demons. And with that many lightning strikes, I can aim for more demons, which increases my ability in a battle like this.'

Noel was surprised as well since he had seen this ability. However, he let the thought go for a moment since there was something even more important.

Normally, the demons Anna electrocuted would have died since the lightning burned their bodies. But because she only incapacitated them, this was a perfect chance for Noel to kill them.

'Perfect.' Noel waved his sword, releasing the Bouncing Spirit Slash. After learning a bit about the control from Jonathan, Noel could finally see what the original creator of this Spirit Technique wanted from it.

The sword strike flew for a moment before falling to the ground due to gravity. But this was when the Bouncing Spirit Slash showed its true might.

The sword strike began to bounce on the ground, heading straight to a demon whose body was electrocuted. It struck the demon's head and pierced through its flesh. Instead of the explosiveness from the Hard Approach, Noel used the Soft Approach to enhance its piercing ability, allowing him to create a hole on the demon's head before letting the sword strike to aim for the second head.

*Roar!*

*Roar!*

The demons wanted to stop it, but they could only helplessly see how their lives ended. The Bounce even became even more ridiculous as Noel gained more and more experience in controlling the Spiritual Energy. From a vertical jump to a looping jump, it allowed Noel to make an unpredictable attack with his own control alone.

'That's right. The Soft Approach and the Hard Approach are the knowledge I need to improve further. If I can master both approaches, I will be able to fight Anna on equal ground Though, I don't know how much she has improved at that time'

Noel glanced at Anna while the latter did the same, as if they were surprised at each other's improvement.

"What are you looking at?" Noel snorted.

Anna smirked. "Hehe. Why don't we play the game again? Who can defeat more demons?"

"In this situation? It's hard to keep the count in our head, you know." Noel shook his head. "But I agree if you want to play the game. But the game is about how many times we save each other."

"Save each other? So, we're going to be reckless while watching each other?"

"Yes. That way, we can kill more demons while being careful. Though, I prefer the word 'all-out' instead of that one."

"Hehe, you're on."

Both of them smirked as they both immediately jumped toward the numerous demons.

A lightning dragon formed on Anna's arm as it began to expand. The dragon let out a roar before it flew toward the demons and exploded, causing a huge spark that killed and injured many demons at once.

But among those demons, some were still unscathed and used that confusion to pounce on Anna.

Sword Fall.

Three giant swords fell on top of the demons, killing them. After that, Noel jumped on top of the sword as he marked his target.

A snowflake crystal appeared beneath his feet as Noel kicked it down.

Freezing Crystal.

The snowflake crystal blew up, freezing more than twenty demons. However, a few stronger demons managed to shatter their ice before Noel fell down, trying to kill him.

Anna's speed increased drastically as she skillfully maneuvered around the frozen demons and appeared among those who lived, killing them so that Noel could have a safe landing.

"One point for both of us." Anna smirked.

"True. Who will win today? As for the bet, the loser has to agree to do something for the winner."

"I'm looking forward to it."

"Let's go then."
