I Become A Mob Character In A Novel
Chapter 99 - No.99 Dragon's Sin Of Wrath (3)

[Third Person's POV]

"So, You are only worth this much?" The Sorceress mocked as she stood over the fallen body of Samael Ashwood riddled with injuries, who had no sign of life.

"What did you say before? Ah! yes 'You sure?' my foot."

The sorceress sneered as she kicked Samael's lifeless body, her dark energy swirling around her in triumph. Her monstrous form towered over him, shadowy tendrils flickering ominously in the scorched and ashen battlefield. "Pathetic. You thought you could challenge me? You thought you could protect them?" she spat, her voice dripping with disdain.

Her eyes glowed as she summoned more dark magic to her hand, preparing to obliterate what little remained of Samael. "Goodbye, Ashwood," she hissed, raising her staff high for the final blow.

But just as she prepared to strike, the air around her shifted. A strange, unfamiliar presence washed over the battlefield. The temperature dropped suddenly, and the oppressive weight of her dark magic seemed to falter.

"Hey... you didn't answer my question from before... I had to return back from the gates of hell… you shouldn't have done that."

A deep, resonant voice echoed across the battlefield, cutting through the sorceress's victorious glee like a knife through the fog. The sorceress froze, her eyes darting around in confusion. There was no one else here, she was sure of it—Samael lay defeated before her. So where was this voice coming from?

Before she could fully comprehend the situation, the air itself seemed to ripple, warping around Samael's lifeless body. The oppressive darkness of the battlefield recoiled as a pulse of energy surged from the fallen figure. The Dragon's Heart that had pushed Samael to his limits began to glow once more, faint at first, then brighter, until its radiant power was impossible to ignore.

The sorceress staggered back, her eyes widening in disbelief. "Impossible... You were dead! I saw you die!"

Suddenly, Samael's body stirred. His eyes shot open, not with the same blue and red hues from before, but now shining with a brilliant, otherworldly golden light. His injuries began to heal rapidly, and a radiant aura enveloped him, lifting him off the ground.

The sorceress took another step back, her confidence crumbling as the impossible unfolded before her. "What… what is this? How are you still alive?!"

Samael's voice, now layered with a deeper resonance, spoke in a tone that sent chills through the air. "You underestimated me... underestimated us."

He slowly stood upright, his body radiating immense power. The Dragon's Heart within him was no longer just a source of pain and strain—it was fully awakened, its energy merging seamlessly with Samael's magic.

The aura of Lightning, Destruction, Star, Nature, Shadow, Dark, and Blood magic that had once been scattered and unfocused now pulsed in perfect harmony, crackling with the force of a tempestuous storm.

The sorceress's eyes widened in terror as the once-defeated Samael began to glow with a flash of unparalleled brilliance. The radiant energy emanating from him cut through the darkness like a beacon, illuminating the entire battlefield with its intense light. The sorceress's dark magic recoiled, unable to withstand the overwhelming force of Samael's newfound power.

The ground trembled beneath them, and the air vibrated with the sheer magnitude of Samael's magic. The once oppressive cold had given way to an intense, searing heat, and the molten earth beneath them began to churn and bubble.

Samael took a deep breath, and the golden light in his eyes seemed to pierce through the very fabric of reality itself. His voice now imbued with an ethereal quality, resonated with an authority that commanded the elements around him.

"Blighted skies where angels weep..."

The sorceress's eyes widened in sheer panic as Samael's voice echoed with divine authority. The sky, once dark and choked with the residue of magic and battle, began to part as if answering his call. The once-molten earth cooled and solidified under the influence of Samael's overwhelming aura.

"Chains of sin in shadows creep..."

The sorceress's breath came in ragged gasps as Samael's words wove an intricate spell in the air. The very fabric of the battlefield seemed to bend to his will, the chaotic remnants of their clash falling into an eerie silence. The sorceress, her once-confident demeanor shattered, struggled to maintain her composure as she witnessed Samael's transformation.

"Heaven scorched by pride's last call..."

The sorceress's confidence shattered completely as Samael's incantation continued. His voice grew more powerful with each verse, and the very atmosphere seemed to pulse in rhythm with his words. The sky above, once darkened and turbulent, began to clear, revealing the first glimmers of dawn.

"By the flames of the eternal, I claim this night..."

Nearly completing the chanting, leaving only the final line hanging in the air, Samael's aura surged with newfound vigor. The sorceress, now visibly trembling, tried to gather her remaining strength to counteract the overwhelming power emanating from Samael. Her dark energy crackled and sputtered as if unable to compete with the sheer magnitude of his light.

"Domain Expansion: Satan's Fall!"

The sorceress's eyes widened in sheer terror as Samael's final incantation took shape. The ground beneath them cracked open, and the very essence of reality seemed to warp and shift. A powerful rift opened in the air, drawing in the surrounding magic and energy.

Samael's voice resonated through the battlefield with an otherworldly power, and the chaotic forces at play began to coalesce into a single, overwhelming force.

From the rift, a colossal wave of radiant energy surged forth, crackling with the combined might of all the magic Samael had harnessed. It rolled across the battlefield like a tidal wave, its intensity blinding and scorching everything in its path.

The sorceress, caught in the full brunt of the assault, tried to muster a defense, but her dark magic was utterly overwhelmed. The golden light from Samael's spell pierced through her defenses like a spear, shattering her dark enchantments and engulfing her in a maelstrom of searing heat and divine radiance.

AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

The roaring tempest of light and power swallowed her screams of agony. Her once formidable form was reduced to nothing more than shadows and echoes as Samael's spell reached its peak. The battlefield was transformed into a sea of golden light, and the very air seemed to hum with the remnants of Samael's overwhelming spell.

A giant flaming hand with molten crust reached down from the rift, closing around the sorceress in a final, fiery grasp. The ground beneath them was scorched black, and the heat was intense enough to force back even the bravest of souls. The sorceress's form was swallowed by the inferno, her dark magic disintegrating into nothingness.

The golden light continued to pulse and ebb, illuminating the battlefield with an ethereal glow. Samael, standing at the center of the radiant storm, felt the surge of energy coursing through him, a feeling both exhilarating and exhausting. The immense power of the Dragon's Heart, now fully awakened and harmonized with his own magic, was overwhelming yet exhilarating.

As the light began to fade, Samael's form became visible once more, though he was clearly exhausted. His eyes, now returning to their original blue and red hues, still glowed faintly with the remnants of the spell's energy. The once-turbulent battlefield had calmed, and the oppressive darkness had been replaced by a serene, almost sacred silence.

Samael collapsed to his knees, his strength spent but his resolve unwavering. He looked around at the remnants of the battle—the scorched earth, the dissipated dark magic, and the remains of his enemies. The ground was littered with the debris of the conflict, but the source of the threat, the sorceress, was no more.

Huff! Huff! Huff!

Samael's breathing was labored as he slowly pushed himself back to his feet. The battlefield was still a mess of destruction, but the once-dominant darkness had been banished by the raw power of his transformation. His body, though battered and exhausted, radiated a sense of victory and newfound strength.

He scanned the remnants of the battle, his gaze falling upon the scattered remains of the sorceress's forces. The oppressive dark magic that had once suffocated the air was now nothing more than faint traces of dissipated energy.

"Is it… over?" Samael's voice was hoarse but filled with a determined edge. The golden light from his spell had receded, but his eyes still held a flicker of that divine radiance. His hands trembled slightly, not just from exhaustion but also from the overwhelming surge of magic he had channeled.

"It's quite the contrary~" Samael's body froze as he heard her voice... again.

How?!

Samael's head whipped around, his heart pounding in his chest as he searched for the source of the voice. The battlefield, now eerily silent and calm after the devastating clash, seemed to pulse with an unsettling energy. He strained his senses, but there was no visible sign of the sorceress—or so he thought.

The voice was both familiar and chilling, echoing through the air with a mocking tone. "Isn't it charming how you think you've won?"

Samael's eyes narrowed, his gaze shifting across the scorched landscape. He sensed a subtle distortion in the air, a faint ripple that suggested the sorceress's presence was not entirely vanquished.

Suddenly, the distortion coalesced into a swirling vortex of dark energy. From within it, the sorceress emerged, her form now twisted and grotesque, a mockery of her previous monstrous appearance. Her eyes glowed with an intense, malevolent light, and her dark magic crackled around her like a storm. She seemed less corporeal, more an embodiment of pure, malevolent energy.

"You see," she said, her voice resonating with an unnerving echo, "You almost had me there... almost~"

She continued, "Quite the forgetful you are, aren't you? I control dark magic as well as... Time Magic~"

So all that I did was... useless?!
