Chapter 330: 261. City of Lights.

The Undead Lord thought as he got attacked by John, 'd.a.m.n, he can still use light magic without the guidance of Irmela. It only makes it 10 times harder. I don't think I have even a 1% percent chance of winning against him from the way he is fighting against me without breaking any sweat. No wonder he was able to corner and kill Irmela. Frigin, I didn't want his used up G.o.d's fragment, Kids these days have quite a temper just for comparing some notes.'

Xylo who was unconcerned with the Undead Lord looked at him and then at John and Mist as he spoke, "You guys can kill him. Most of the time, he won't even listen to me. In the first place, why would I want to become enemies with that Nature Magician."

It was nighttime, as suddenly an eclipse occurred which created a commotion and stopped the fight between John and the Undead Lord. It was quite unique as previously only 1 moon used to have an eclipse but this time, all the 3 moons were having an eclipse.

Xylo meanwhile thought as he looked at John's fighting techniques, 'Though he uses basic magic and elements but he is quite efficient in using them in fights. The most important aspect of his fight was the fusion of elements. Fusing just 2 elements takes a good toll on one's body but this guy fuses 4 elements without breaking any sweat. The most surprising thing is his use of s.p.a.ce magic and then there is that mental attack. Irmela called it Dragon's roar if I remember it correctly, I need to research more on them and collect the magic fragments. That snow forest made by Fredric might come to use.'

John looked at the moon as in his mind he heard a new notification,

[Successfully resisted 3 curses. Successfully repelled.]

[Successfully resisted curses.]

John muttered slowly as he looked at the notification, "Looks like watching moon is the medium of the curse."

While Arzaz and Fredric immediately cast a spell to create a s.h.i.+eld on their group.

Melanie who was away soon neared John and exclaimed immediately, "It seems you are okay. Looks like this Eclipse is the work of Irmela."

In the underworld near a volcano, one of the Arch Demons smiled as he looked at the full events that took place today and muttered slowly, "Those brats actually managed to p.i.s.s Irmela so much that he was forced to create 2 Illusion eclipses today, one on Sun and other on 3 Moons. However, looking that he is fine I think Irmela would be bleeding bucket loads of blood after watching this result."

After looking at the eclipse, John immediately called Quill and ordered him, "Hmph... who does he think he is. Quill go and tell Taylor to lighten all the Roads and our Palaces. This eclipse might as well become the talking point of our city of lights. Tell people that we will be completing the signing and hosting ceremony today itself."

Quill smiled as he nodded and immediately found Taylor to implement what was prepared earlier.

Taylor signaled Tornwall and Tornwall immediately started North-frontier city's power system which was currently being charged by Thermal Power stations.

Immediately, the whole city was filled with lights which surprised a lot of people including Melanie, The Diplomats and Xylo.

One of the marquis who arrived here immediately exclaimed after watching the whole Plaza filled with lights, "What is this? Holy, this isn't warm like the candles."

Plato looked at the lights and exclaimed, "It seems this was the thing he mentioned about earlier when told that it would be a memorable day. I guess the Radiant Church ruined his plans as I am sure Lord John might have planned to unveil this during his crowning ceremony. Nevertheless, I made the right move when I decided to ally with his Majesty John. Just his prowess alone can't be underestimated. After looking at those teleportation moves, I am sure Lord John is Anak himself. Now it seems quite funny that we sent a letter to John to betray himself."

Anin was quite shocked after watching this level of technology and exclaimed, "This is worthy of historical notation. This invention itself may create a revolution in the world. I must immediately inform Murnet about today's events later on."

A whole lot of factories too started working on power provided by the new thermal power station.

John then looked at Xylo and the Undead Lord who escaped after watching that John didn't perceive him as a threat.

After scanning the Undead Lord, John got the following results.

John looked at Xylo as he judged and spoke, "Who are you and What is up with your summon? You can't even control your summons? And most importantly, why are you here?"

Xylo coughed a bit and spoke while keeping his pride, "Ahem, I am called the Undead Sage Xylo by the people of this continent. As for my presence, a few days ago I detected the presence of an Angel's soul arriving on Arkon so I made some preparations and followed his trail here today. I knew that since an Angel arrived then there might be a big event so I decided to snipe them behind their backs as they wouldn't have included me in their plans when they attacked you. As for my summon, yes I can't control him, you can kill him. Most of the time he extorts me like a mercenary even after offering a s.h.i.+tload of resources. If you can tame him, I might as well reward you a ton of resources."

Alan looked at Xylo as he made a face as if he was disgusted and spoke, "You call them resources? Most of them stop working after 2 or 3 fights. After the first time you scammed me I made an oath to always scrutinize your deals no matter how juicy they seem. Just take this sword of Undead for example, it might seem very good now but after 3 more fights, it will be unusable. You told me previously that I could have G.o.d's fragment and that is why I attacked him."

Xylo was quite angry after he heard Alan and spoke immediately, "What about you when I first summoned you, you ran immediately after watching the skeleton dragon. You even took the resources and left even at the cost of injuring your fragment soul."

A lot of people were quite shocked after hearing the black history of these two characters. Xylo's personality shocked quite a lot of them when they saw him first hand. The cold aloof Undead Sage seemed quite amiable after looking at him first hand.

After watching the bickering of the two, John didn't bother them more as the system informed him that Alan was indeed trying to only have pointers with him after watching his swordsmans.h.i.+p and compare his own swordsmans.h.i.+p.
