Chapter 1475: Battle

Translated by Jim

Abel quickly decided that this time he was going to take another hit to leave a mark on Baal.

After all, it was very hard to do so unharmed when fighting against another World Stone.

He had tested out the Nova Blast before, and he knew he could take it.

The Angel Sword stabbed onto the back of Baal as he blocked the Nova Blast with his Angel Shield.

Although more fire landed on him due to his close range, the strength of the blast was limited since it was made for mid to long range.

One fifth of his health was taken from Abel, but to his surprise, the strike he landed on Baal caused more damage than the last one.

Although it still wasn’t much considering the health of Baal, one thing was clear: the Dark Gold Soul Draining Gloves were going the trick. Its special ability to reduce a foe’s defense by 50 points with each strike.

It might not seem like much at first, but it added on with each strike!

Its ability to Steal Health was also useful, and Abel regained most of the damage he took even without the Full Recovery Potion.

Abel was basically an inch behind Baal’s back and continued to stab him.

Baal quickly turned to regain his dominance, but Abel did not give him the chance. With his World Stone fully activated, he stuck behind Baal no matter which direction he was turning while keeping a distance of half a meter.

It was a strange tactic, and Abel’s angel avatar was like Baal’s shadow.

Baal moved quickly as he roared, but ten holes had opened up on his back and blood was flying in all directions.

points of health was taken from Baal, and Abel was still sustaining himself.

As Abel was gaining momentum, the familiar white cloud of curses appeared above him, and cursed rain landed on his shoulders.

The spell was way too fast for him to dodge.

It was the Aging Curse, and his body was quickly slowed down to the point where he could no longer shadow Baal.

Abel felt his heart drop, but he kept calm. Everything still worked the same with his World Stone, and he had Flashing spells prepared in his soul. Since the angel avatar did not have any ability on its own, using the Light energy would not affect its ability to move.

His main soul quickly activated a Flash and his body was engulfed in white. But that was the moment Baal’s claws brushed against him.

By the time he reappeared, he felt like his body had been hit by a giant hammer, and over half of his health was taken away.

He quickly used up a Full Recovery Potion and Flashed towards Baal again.

But this time, Baal saw it coming and knew what Abel was about to do. Baal quickly Flashed as well and appeared behind Abel with another claw strike ready.

Abel immediately Dashed ahead and narrowly dodged the claw.

What could he do now? If he waited even longer, Baal might fully recover!

This would not be a problem without the Aging Curse, but it was too bad he could not use his druid and priest skills when the Light energy was activated.

The first thing that came into his mind was poison attacks. Although his Dark Gold Life Poison wouldn’t do much in the Dark World due to how little Abel had, he had prepared something different: Dark Gold poison made with the Central Continent’s most vicious poison through the Horadric Cube’s combination power!

They were not as powerful, but they were close and most of all, Abel had a lot of them.

As Baal chased after him,he took out the poison from his portal bag and threw a bottle out.

Both of them were extremely fast, but it was impossible for Baal to dodge considering his size.

Baal directly waved its claw to knock the poison away, but that merely blasted the bottle open and all the poison landed on Baal.

Still, Baal did not care since it was only a tiny bottle. However the main purpose of the poison was not to injure him, but to stop his regenerating.

Indeed, the wounds on Baal’s body quickly stopped healing!

Abel’s angel avatar quickly changed direction and took out the Kelpie Snare.

It was only an experiment. At first he had been planning to trade health with Baal and let the battle go on, but now he realized he would not win even with his thousands of Full Recovery Potions.

It was because the Hit Break ability that disregarded his defense was every melee fighter’s nightmare.

He then tried to beat Baal with speed, but the Aging Curse destroyed his hopes again.

Therefore, what the Kelpie Snare was going to do was bring Baal’s speed down with him.

The moment Abel swept out with the Kelpie Snare, Baal struck out its claws as well.

The Kelpie Snare collided with the claw. Dong! It was what Abel wanted, but Baal did not care since it was not a strong attack.

Abel was knocked back by the force and downed a Full Recovery Potion without even thinking.

If Baal followed through with another attack, he would be dead!

But this time, Baal seemed to be frozen after the strike.

Abel felt his heart lift instantly. Baal was slowed down; it was no wonder why they had nicknamed the Kelpie Snare “Baal’s Worst Enemy”!

Abel charged forward again for an attack.

The slowdown was only effective on Baal for two minutes at most, and Abel wasn’t expecting that he could cause another slow down since Baal had the World Stone. Making the same mistake twice was impossible.

Abel started his countdown: not two minutes, but thirty seconds!

During that time, he kept striking down with Light energy from his Angel Sword and more wounds opened up on Baal.

Baal was clearly trying to escape, but the Kelpie Snare was more effective on it than Abel expected.

The Kelpie Snare was Baal’s only weakness in the Dark World, and now it was in Abel’s hand!

Abel did not immediately recall his human body, since he didn’t know how effective the slow down was, but after thirty seconds, he successfully landed another strike with the Kelpie Snare and Baal was slowed down once again.

As soon as Abel’s human body appeared, he put on the frozen armor and a green energy shield glowed around it.

It was the Oak tree’s protection, making sure he wouldn’t be killed in an instant.

He quickly cast a Static Field.

It was a very powerful spell, because it could bypass all defenses and decrease health by a percentage, but it had a major downside. It was extremely long to Cast and the area it affected was tiny.

Luckily, this was not a problem on the slowed-down Baal!

Lightning flashed and a quarter of Baal’s health was taken away instantly. It worked, and Abel did not hesitate as he followed up with even more Static Fields.

Baal roared crazily; the damage it was taking was unlike anything that had come before!
