Chapter 162: Fighting!

Without a warning, he appeared behind Zelal and struck him. Zelal tried to cast some earth barrier to protect himself. Unfortunately, the moment he was distracted by the demon, the black mist emerged in front of him and silently devoured the man.

Zelal's battle instinct sharpened as he caught a whiff of danger. He immediately extracted himself from his position. The black aura missed him but quickly changed its course to catch Zelal again. 

Zelal quickly controlled his power to conjure another shield. The earth bent around him and received the black mist attack. However, Usui didn't give Zelal a chance to breathe as he had suddenly come from above him.

Usui activated the sword's curse before he slammed it against the rock. The deathly miasma instantly corroded the shield, melting the barrier at a speed that was visible to the naked eyes. In a matter of seconds, Zelal was exposed again.
