Chương 484: Chapter : 484

Ken communicated with Karna in his mind.

"Listen, Karna. Black fire is just an edgy trope. It hates pure, bright light. It is basic elemental weakness. Just overwhelm it with your golden energy. Blast it with a massive beam. Think of it like a giant Kamehameha wave. Just overpower it completely."

"Understood, Boss," Karna replied respectfully. Karna looked up at the giant bird. The Black Crow dived from the sky. It aimed its sharp, shadow beak directly at Karna's chest. Black flames trailed behind it like a dark comet. The bird wanted to pierce his heart. Karna did not dodge this time. He planted his boots firmly on the dirt. He raised the Divine Vijaya Bow. He poured an immense amount of pure, radiant golden mana into the weapon. The bow glowed so brightly it looked like a second sun.

The golden light pushed the dark purple fog entirely away from the street.

"Golden Pierce," Karna stated calmly. He released the string. A gigantic, blinding pillar of golden light erupted from the bow. It was not a simple arrow. It was a massive beam of pure energy. It roared through the air. The golden beam slammed directly into the diving Black Crow. The black flames clashed violently against the golden light. The two energies pushed against each other. The air vibrated. The sound was deafening. Sparks of black and gold rained down on the city. The bird struggled.

The black flames tried to eat the light. But Karna was a legendary spirit. His power was absolute. The golden light easily pierced through the black fire. The light consumed the dark flames completely. The Black Crow let out a final, agonizing screech. The golden beam tore right through the center of its massive body. The giant bird exploded into a million pieces of black ash. The ash rained down on the ruined city like snow. The black flames vanished completely from the world.

Karna managed the boss monster effectively. He did not break a single sweat. He lowered his bow. He stood in the falling ash. But the victory was very brief. The Black Crow was dead, but the minion monsters remained. The ten thousand Black Spirits roared. They charged forward in a massive, endless tide. They flooded the streets again. They climbed over the ruined buildings. They swarmed the golden warrior from every possible direction. They wanted revenge. Karna shot arrows of light.

He destroyed dozens of spirits with every single shot. He fired rapidly. But there were simply too many. The sheer, overwhelming numbers began to cause trouble. A Black Spirit grabbed Karna's ankle. Karna kicked it away. Another spirit swung a dark sword at his back. Karna spun around and shattered the blade with his bow. Five more spirits lunged at his arms. They tried to drag him to the ground. They wanted to bury him under a mountain of shadow bodies.

Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon. The purple fog grew thicker. The endless tide pushed against him relentlessly. It was a chaotic, suffocating swarm. Karna did not panic. He did not show fear. He fought with the unwavering bravery of a legendary warrior. He unleashed a massive burst of golden mana from his body. The shockwave blew the swarming spirits away. They tumbled across the cobblestones. Karna dashed through the crowd. He punched. He kicked.

He fired arrows at point-blank range. His movements were a flawless dance of destruction. He was an unstoppable force of light in a sea of darkness. The Black Spirits fell by the hundreds. The ground was covered in dark dust. But the portals in the sky kept glowing. The tide did not stop. The dark army felt infinite. Karna stood tall in the middle of the ruined plaza. His golden armor shined brightly. He breathed in a slow, controlled rhythm. He gripped his glowing bow.

He stared at the endless wave of dark monsters. He was completely ready to fight them all night. He would not yield a single inch of ground. The legendary warrior prepared for the next clash.

Karna stood in the center of the ruined plaza. The golden light from his armor shined brightly in the dark city. The purple fog swirled around his boots. The battle had not stopped. The endless wave of Black Spirits kept coming. Karna raised the Divine Vijaya Bow. He pulled the glowing string. He did not show any signs of exhaustion. He fired a dozen arrows of pure light in a single second. The golden arrows zipped through the dark air. They hit the front line of the shadow monsters.

The monsters exploded into fine gray ash. The ash drifted away in the cold wind. But for every monster he destroyed, five more stepped forward. They poured out of the dark alleyways. They crawled over the broken stone walls. They dropped from the ruined rooftops. They did not make any sound. They just marched forward with glowing purple eyes. Karna moved with flawless grace. He leaped backward to avoid a slashing dark sword. He kicked a monster in the chest. The monster shattered like fragile glass.

He spun around and fired another glowing arrow. He fought with the absolute precision of a legendary warrior. Suddenly, the endless tide of monsters completely stopped. The Black Spirits froze in place. They lowered their dark weapons. They took a synchronized step backward. They parted down the middle of the plaza. They created a wide, open path in the sea of darkness. They bowed their shadowy heads in total submission. Karna lowered his golden bow. His silver eyes narrowed slightly. He looked down the open path.

A man walked slowly through the crowd of bowing monsters. He moved with extreme, undeniable arrogance. He wore a long, flowing dark cloak. He did not wear a pale mask like the foot soldiers. His face was entirely visible. He had pale skin and sharp cheekbones. His dark hair was slicked back flawlessly. His eyes burned with a bright, toxic purple light. He smiled a very cruel, very sinister smile. This was Javier. He was one of the absolute highest-ranking leaders of the Black Magicians. Javier stopped walking.

He stood exactly thirty feet away from Karna. He crossed his arms over his chest. He looked at the golden warrior with pure amusement.

"You fight very well for a summoned spirit," Javier stated smoothly. His voice sounded like dry leaves scraping against a stone floor.

"You destroyed my Black Crow. You wiped out thousands of my foot soldiers. Your light magic is incredibly intense. I must admit, I am slightly impressed." Karna stood perfectly straight. He placed his left hand casually behind his back. He held his glowing bow in his right hand. He did not look intimidated.

"I am just doing my job," Karna replied politely. His voice was calm and professional.

"You are trespassing in a fallen kingdom. You have caused a massive amount of destruction. I highly suggest you surrender right now. It will save us both a lot of time. I do not like wasting my master's time." Javier threw his head back. He laughed a loud, booming laugh. The cruel sound echoed across the empty stone buildings.
