Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure
Chapter 1529 1529: Weakening seal (4)

Though in the first place, it wasn't as if I would answer this question just because the Apostle of Destruction asked this.

Instead, I just focused on making the earth spikes explode.

This time, the earth spikes didn't explode into a wall, but rather into different spikes that pierced into the ground around the Apostle of Destruction.

Once they pierced into the ground, they didn't actually attack the Apostle of Destruction.

What it formed was a kind of cage that surrounded the Apostle of Destruction, releasing an effect that seemed to be suppressing it. This was the divine energy that was inside of the earth spikes that was weakening the destruction energy that the Apostle of Destruction possessed.

But it wasn't as if the Apostle of Destruction didn't try to resist.

Even though it had been shocked by the fact that the corruption energy that it tried to send didn't have any effect, it still swept its sword out as if it was going to cut through all of the earth spikes with this sword.

However, it wasn't as if the earth spikes alone were all that I sent out.

There was a layer of ice that was around these earth spikes as well.

The moment that the Apostle of Destruction swung its sword at the earth spikes, the ice immediately started to spread. This ice spread towards the Apostle of Destruction without any hesitation, as if it wanted to swallow the Apostle of Destruction.

The sword was able to break a bit of the ice, but it wasn't able to completely break the ice.

The ice was able to swallow the sword and start to corrode it away…though it wasn't corroding since the sword was one that was made from the destruction energy. So it was better to say that the sword was purified by the ice.

However, it wasn't as if the ice stopped at just the sword.

The ice continued to spread across the sword and went for the Apostle of Destruction himself. It seemed that it would stop at nothing until it completely surrounded the Apostle of Destruction.

The Apostle of Destruction also recognized the danger that was coming from this ice, so it quickly dropped the sword and moved back.

With great effort, the Apostle of Destruction was able to push back the ice that was surrounding it.

But at the same time, it was clear by the state of its arm after this attack that it had suffered quite a bit to stop the ice.

"How are you doing this?"

This time, the Apostle of Destruction's voice was filled with a trace of fear.

It was clear that the Apostle of Destruction never expected to be put under this kind of pressure with the way that it said this. At the same time, the Apostle of Destruction seemed to be looking for any way out of this.

After all, it knew that it wouldn't be able to fight back with the effect that the ice had on it.

The only thing that it could do now was look for a way to escape.

Only I didn't give it that chance.

I knew that while it was weakened, it was the best chance to destroy this Apostle of Destruction and reclaim the stolen Relic of Destruction.

But I also knew that it would be hard to deal with the Apostle of Destruction with just my powers alone.

"Help me take it down!" I shouted at Joan.

Joan, who had been spewing flames on the strange creatures, immediately turned in the direction of the Apostle of Destruction before releasing another breath of divine flames.

This wave of divine flames surged forward as if it wanted to completely swallow the Apostle of Destruction.

Seeing this, the Apostle of Destruction raised its other hand that wasn't injured to release a wave of corruption energy. It wanted to use this wave of corruption energy to block the divine flames that were coming at it.

When this wave of corruption energy was released, I noticed something.

It might seem like the wave of corruption energy was coming from the Apostle of Destruction, but that was only when one didn't look closely. When one looked closer at this wave of corruption energy, they would see that it was actually coming from the Relic of Destruction behind the Apostle of Destruction.

It was clear that the Apostle of Destruction was somehow drawing from the power of the Relic of Destruction to create this wave of corruption energy.

"It really did weaken the seal, but how did it do it?" I couldn't help muttering to myself.

The other thing that I also noticed was that there were parts of the strange creatures that were also coming out of the wave of corruption energy. This showed that the strange creatures had been created by the Relic of Destruction rather than the Apostle of Destruction.

But even if that was the case, it wasn't as if Joan's divine flames were weak.

The moment that the divine flames clashed with the wave of corruption energy, it immediately purified it. The wave of corruption energy was completely burnt away and soon disappeared without a trace.

Though there was only so much of the corruption energy that a single breath of divine flames could purify.

That didn't matter since I wasn't idle during this time.

There were still other earth spikes that were around the Apostle of Destruction while Joan released her flames. Ice started spreading from those earth spikes as well and completely surrounded the Apostle of Destruction.

The Apostle of Destruction did what it could to resist, but it wasn't able to stop the ice as it was completely frozen from the neck down. In the end, the Apostle of Destruction turned into a large block of ice.

The only thing that it could move was its head, but it wasn't able to do anything with it.

Once it was frozen like this, I asked, "How did you break the seal on the relic?"
