I created my own system

Chapter 53: Chapter 53: Darkness



Sparkles of light accompanied by an intense heat began to dance on the evening night. Two streaks of blue light began moving and destroying the area without holding back. It was a beautiful sight yet destructive at the same time.

Apollo was calculating his and his opponent's moves, making sure he was one step ahead of the flow of the battle.

"I still haven't landed a single hit" Sergio thought while copying one of Apollo's earlier spells.

A lance made up of lightning was formed however that move was within Apollo's calculation.

It was a bluish-white light, brilliant and jagged mass of electricity, extending from the sky to the ground.

Apollo saw how the clouds generated a bolt of lightning and went towards the lance Sergio was making. A grin emerges on his face, thinking his lance has become more powerful than the one Apollo used before.

An intense yet dazzling light sends tendrils of heat, spreading out from the main bolt, resembling a spear that pierces through the sky.

Sergio was up in the air while holding a lance made of lightning.

"Let's see if you can dodge this"

[In coming Creator]

The lance hurls through the air, burning fast and effortlessly.

A mass explosion of electricity burst as the lance hit something. A pile of rubble and dirt was pushed off the ground causing a smoke of dust to cover the area.

Sergio thought he had his opponent however once the dust was kicked off he saw Apollo completely dodge the strike.

He doesn't understand how someone could be completely unharmed after all the attacks he did.

He would never expect that the creature in front of him had read his every possible movement and had acted before he could even commit the act.

The lance was something Apollo had read and thus he had already positioned himself in a place where the strike wouldn't affect him.

"It's as if he knows every action I was planning to do" the monastery Bishop thought. A wave of anxiety slowly crept into his body.

"No, I wouldn't be defeated!"

The old grimoire appeared once again floating ominously in front of the priest, its pages began to move as if finding a specific page.

"Fourth gospel of the holy book, the empire of heavens is with you"

Apollo just watches him as he summons a spell based on another religious text.

"So they go around copying others then claiming it as their own"

[Notification Alert!

A powerful conquering spell is about to be cast

The effects of the spell are a wide range of debuffing spells and a dome of protection for the enemy]

[Proceed to break the spell?]

"No, I want to test something"

[Why do I suddenly feel worried about this]

Apollo chuckled before being hit by an overbearing pressure.

His body and instincts scream telling him to escape but Apollo remains standing not wanting to seem weak.

Even with his heavy body and clouded mind he was still able to read the next attack on Sergio.

"Lean right" his body moved according to his will, and with every passing second the heaviness he had been experiencing was becoming worse. The attack launched by Sergio still failed to hit its target.

"Why!" he couldn't help but shout in frustration.

He had removed all of Apollo's senses yet he was still able to move and dodge the strike he made.

He can't see yet it seems like he has seen where the attack is going.

He can't feel yet his body feels the vibration of the attack.

He can't hear yet and can tell where to stand for safety.

Even with the spell in effect, it doesn't do much since the creature in front of him doesn't rely on his senses to read his opponent's attack.

[Analysis complete!

The spell has been recorded and analyzed! ]

[Notification Alert!

For the potential you have shown a skill has been created!

The skill's name is Unbreakable!

A mind and will that cannot be broken by any situation, that is unbreakable!]

[Spell formula has been hypothesized proceed to use the spell?]

"Yes let us proceed"

Casting a newly crafted spell requires a bit of time and currently, he doesn't have that.

As he and Jeremiah converse more spells were being sent to Apollo.

"How come you can fly when you can't even see!" the bishop shouted feeling dumbfounded and aghast upon the situation.

"Jeremiah let's do this"

[Affirmative!]

As Sergio was about to cast a fire spell he suddenly felt a sudden chill.

"What is this"

Then right in front of him an old grimoire suddenly born out of the corrupt mana Apollo has.

"This...this can't be!"

He began to feel frantic and started to attack continuously however a field of lightning became Apollo's protective defence, making his attack useless.

Then right before his eyes, he witnessed a scene he never thought possible. Apollo's inhuman voice sounded clear and proud as the spell flowed smoothly out of his non-existent mouth.

"Third gospel of the holy book. Don't do to others what you don't want to be done to you"

Sergio froze when his demonic opponent copied the spell he spent years of mastering.

"This can't be!"

His hand gathered more mana however an overbearing pressure suddenly hit him.

"So it really works like that"

Apollo tried to sound carefree but with his current voice, he sounded like he was trying to eat someone.

The third gospel is a spell similar to one of Apollo's skills, Copy&Paste or even Mirror tenfold.

Once the spell is cast any spell or technique made by the enemy will be copied.

If it's an attack spell then it is copied first before bouncing back to the one who cast it. If it's a boost type of spell like Apollo's then the same spell will be applied to the priest who cast the gospel.

However, if it's a debuff spell or a conquering spell then the gospel will copy it first before returning it to the caster.

"Argh!" he began to feel the pressure and inescapable loss of senses. He began to cry due to the pain but his body wouldn't allow him to flee.

He can't hear, feel and see, all that is left on him is an endless pit of darkness.

With Sergio's current state, the fourth gospel soon loses its effect finally freeing Apollo.

"Finally I can see"

He stretched his arms and neck since the fourth gospel made his body stiff.

[Creator incoming attack]

"Yes I can feel it"

Apollo just waved his hand and a layer of lightning became his shield.

"You look crazy priest" his screech-like voice made Sergio shake his head.

The priest's hair is messy while his clothes are damaged due to being continuously pulled. It seems like the priest utilised one important artifact to get out the effects of the third gospel.

Apollo wasn't really surprised, they have existed for hundreds of years so it'll be no wonder if they have one to two important tools and artifacts.

His sudden recovery of his senses unexpectedly shocked his body causing his senses to go haywire. His head was flooded with all sorts of light while his ears were busted with the crinkling sound of the night.

"My head!"

In his confused state Apollo decided to end the pointless fight. His wish to experience their ways of fighting and style of spells was already satiated, now he needed information.

"Let me knock you out"

Lightning danced as Apollo appeared right in front of Sergio.

"Thunder aura, Lightning shock"

His hand were already one inch away from his target when a notification emerged.

[Notification Alert!"

An army had been detected to approach the area]

"Enemies?"

[Based on my scanner it seems like they are the accomplices of the bishops in this area]

"Who were they"

[One of the famous families in this region, Stannis from the city of Ashcliff, northeast of the City of Sidus]

"Hmm...if I am not mistaken one of the kids from the High class was a Stannis right?"

[Yes, it's the kid you'd been wanting to abduct but because he is in High class you couldn't touch him]

"Right with the people I killed this past week, the academy became too protective of its students. I need to cool down a bit before making a move again"

[Creator they are approaching fast]

"Yes I can feel their mana"

Apollo shifts his gaze at Sergio before smashing to him the spell he had cast before.

A discharge of electricity courses through the priest's veins, putting his nerves in chaos resulting in him being paralyzed.

"Done now Jeremiah store him away"

[I will]

"Let's see I still have a couple of mana I should use it well"

A gloomy, dim and overcast layer of dark clouds swallows the sky causing more darkness than the regular night. The light from the moon could no longer penetrate the might of the darkness. The clouds appeared heavy and thick, hinting at an impending storm that was about to come.
