Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

[OP: ]

Te Black angel moved so fast that even the captains of the guards of the Hiraani couldn't properly grasp his movements, it was as if he was moving through space-time directly— teleporting in simpler terms.

He was strong and had something that the others did not understand, something most mortals in this world wouldn't understand.

However, Eon was different.

-Clank!

-Clunk!

The opponent wasn't using his bare hands anymore. There was a dagger that seemed to be made up of some kind of crystal in his hand, a dagger so well crafted that even the dwarven craftsmanship was dull before it.

It was a divine artifact, Eon could tell at a glance, an artifact that was above anything that existed in this word. A weapon that one could even compare with the Soul armaments that only a handful of people actually possessed.

"I underestimated you severely, young master Axion. You certainly aren't just a strong 'young' boy."

Eon was attacking him as well, and just like him, Eon wasn't visible when he moved, creating an illusion that he was also moving through the space-time like the Black angel did… but, what he was doing was fundamentally different from what his opponent was doing at the moment.

"This isn't time to smile and be like that."

-Swiiiiiiiiiish!

-Swaaaaaaaaash!

-Swish.

"And you have quite a surprising archery as well."

Holding three arrows between his fingers, Eon locked his target, not the person that was before him right now, but the place that he was going to be after he released these arrows.

But the thief dodged every one of those arrows by not changing his position, the arrow certainly was in the right position, however, he changed his body ever so slightly that all the arrows passed right by him.

-Ooooooooong!

However, all those arrows had enchantments engraved on them so, even as they had passed him, after Eon activated them, they all shot magic that were engraved in them behind them.

"And your magic is quite something as well."

There was no hesitation in his eyes even when tens of magic that could have dealt with any strong human were coming at him.

He was smiling instead.

-Snap!

An invisible power blocked, destroyed every single one of the magic that was coming at him.

-Swish.

And, the arrows that had passed right past him also somehow returned and were aiming at his back, however, he vanished by the time those arrows had reached him.

"What are you?"

Eon was using a similar technique as he was, however he was utilising his skill in the process while on the other hand, the opponent before him was doing it with his pure strength, with nothing but the abilities he possessed.

The person before him… he did not expect it, but he was much more than what he had ever imagined.

"You don't have to know yet."

He was blocking every single spell that he couldn't avoid with his dagger and when he needed, he also took advantage of the opportunity and attacked Eon himself.

-Swish!

If it weren't for his increased abilities, his skills and the artifacts that he had at the moment, there would have been not one but three times where he would have lost to the sharp dagger.

The Black angel wasn't looking forward to kill him or anything, but, he wasn't just going to let him walk away when he was blocking his path.

And Eon was doing all that he can to block this bastard, even going as far as using his skills repeatedly.

"Why are you doing this though, young master?"

-Clank!

Six arrows were shot consecutively this time, however, he cut three of them in half, even though they were arrows made with special material only found in the forbidden forest, and redirected the rest towards the wall where they crashed and destroyed that part of the wall.

They were strong, he would give him that much. And if not for his special abilities and experience, he would have lost to this child before him.

-Swiiiiiiiiiiish!

-Swish!

"Why did you hurt everyone! What did they do to you?!"

Eon was frustrated, but he kept going.

He shot his arrow and continued emptying his silver quiver that stored not hundreds but thousands of arrows of various kinds.

A few minutes had passed, however, he had not managed to put a single scratch on his opponent, and from the looks of it, Eon knew his opponent was also only playing with him.

"Collateral damage, young boy. Nothing much.

You should be happy all of them are at least alive."

He would never forget how the entire control room was destroyed beyond help, how all of the individuals in Operator B were on the ground, with their injuries or strong marks of force on their bodies.

"…what?"

No one in the first support unit was a combat personnel, they were normal humans that just happened to very capable and smart.

They weren't even mages to possesss a strong enough constitution to endure the kind of attacks he had used on them.

"THEY WOULD HAVE DIED!"

Twelve arrows… he instantly shot a highly lethal pair of six arrows that, after being shot from his bow, flew like a snake, in an undetectable pattern, and vanished from view soon.

-Oooooooooong!

The twelve reappeared only after a moment where everything had paused, in twelve different places all around the room, and when they appeared, a strange light wa shot out from them, and all twelve of the lights collided in the same place, on the opponent.

"Damn, you even have quite a grasp on ancient runes. Did some old divine beast teach you all these things?"

The arrow that were now blocking him were an ancient magic array made with the original ancient runes of the ancient civilizations.

They were the original language of the world, and also something not just anyone of this world could use as they liked.

Even a single word rune was difficult to engrave on something. Creating a magic array with the help of advanced magic techniques and runes was something perhaps no one in this world would have ever imagined to witness in their lifetime.

Even the headmaster did not know he possessed something like this.

"Amazing…"

Even Eon only had one of these set, and he believed they would be at least enough to restrain him for a moment… but, no.

The twelve lights blocking him were strong enough to even retrain the emperor for a few moments, but to him, this entire array that he had spent over a year to create, was nothing more than a difficult mess.

-Oooooooooooong!

Covering his dagger in a unique black energy, he moved the dagger through the threads of lights around him, and like a hot knife moving through thread of cotton, one after another… all twelve of the restraints, along with the arrows they were connected to, were destroyed completely.

"Divinity…"

There were gods in this world, as well as divine beasts that held positions as high as the gods.

There were transcendents and Lords as well, beings who possessed the same set of powers as those higher beings did, the only difference between them was the realms they lived in.

"You know a little too much for your age, don't you think?"

-Swish!

-Clank!

-Swash!

He attacked Eon right after getting out of those restraints, but Eon saw it coming and blocked it with Asta, his partner.

"Oho… now that sure is something an experienced person would call their masterpiece."

Asta endured the attack from the divine artifact, maintaining his dignity as the Noble artifact. The appearance of Asta also put a smile on the face of the opponent.

-Swish!

But they weren't going to stop to admire one another's weapons.

At least, the thief did not have time for this.

-Clank!

He just attacked and talked about unrelated things in between, trying to distract Eon in any way. But Eon had realised that and was only focusing on dealing with the opponent that possessed a power only those transcendent powers, or higher beings were allowed to possess.

A power that only those who have transcended the moral limitations could possess.

-Clunk!

There were only two kinds of divine powers in this world as well— one that belonged to person using it, and the one that was borrowed from some other higher power.

-Ooooooooooooooooong!

But this person was using his own divine power, Eon could tell as much since he had studied deeply about divinity from his master.

"You are strong, and much more than what should have existed in this world… but, why do you possess that strangely powerful mental defence?

It's not even like you are a pinnacle holder."

-Swiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiish!

Perhaps he had seen all that he wanted to see, or perhaps it was because his time had run out, but, he suddenly stopped.

"Is it something like a gift from the being that taught you all those things? Is it because of some kind of artifact?"

Eon knew how to deal with divine power when it was used in its purest form, or to enhance one's physical abilities.

He knew how he could deal with someone that was using divinity to enhance their physical abilities, and he had Solnova to counter it when it was used as Aura in a fight.

But, he wasn't expecting for an opponent, a thief… to ever possess something more than that.

"You have Solnova, perhaps because of some unique skill you were born with, but the way you control it is so refined only a few beings in This world are capable of teaching someone else this method.

You have talent, perhaps because your soul originates from some other world. And you have ambitions so our reunion is inevitable."

He was gathering his divine power around him the same way one gathered when they were using a special technique, or in many cases… a skill.

"What… are you?"

Only gods and divine beasts were allowed to use divine powers for something more than Enhancement.

A mortal… should never be able to do… this.

"You are good, young boy. Please, continue hating me the way you do right now."

Black light rose from the ground all around him, the ceiling was turning black, and the door leading to the side was the only place that was not covered by this black light.

"That look in your eyes."

-Snap!

A mirror-like black object appeared right before his face before vanishing in an instant.

"Remember that."

-Ooooooooooooooooooooong…!

Darkness engulfed him from all sides.

His vision darkened.

The light in the room was replaced by the dark light he had produced.

And, along with his vision… his consciousness also faded away in the irresistible darkness that had now, engulfed the entire room.
