Chapter 280 Putrefaction
Chapter 280 Putrefaction
Alicia walked calmly through the battlefield, her eyes focused solely on one person; in fact, she was enjoying torturing the poor students. Her mana emanated from her pores, completely changing her appearance. The cult leader's eyes detected a significant presence, staring fixedly at Alicia's figure. He felt a bit confused at first; after all, wasn't he just a fairly normal cultist?
Alicia's sword glowed, and her body disappeared. The cult leader opened his eyes and, with a calm smile, produced a pair of large black bones from his hands.
BOOMMM!
The force of the attack sent Andre flying backward; his black hair shook as he tightly gripped the bones in his hands, managing to stabilize himself without any issues. He stood upright, facing the girl in front of him. "What a pity, I thought my disguise was perfect," he said sadly as his body changed into that of a child. "How did you uncover me?" he asked with an innocent smile and curious eyes.
"I can tell it wasn't you." He put his hands behind his back and looked around. "I suppose it was your team's assassin." His eyes glinted coldly as he looked at Nicholas trying to shred the abomination.
"Are you done talking?" Alicia tightened her grip on the hilt; her senses told her that this cult leader was extremely dangerous. After all, even his name was engraved in the empire's history books, "Andre the Immortal." His magic was forbidden, so horrifying and repugnant that he had been hunted down for years by cult hunters with the help of the church.
"Andre the Immortal," former cult leader who lived for 80 years. During the countless years they tried to hunt him down, he always had the appearance of a 14-year-old boy, thanks to his magic, which could literally absorb life force, granting him eternal youth. Of course, all this changed after an operation successfully killed him, locking him away like a rat.
But he didn't die alone; most of the people who went after him died with him.
Alicia was very clear about what she shouldn't do: not let his hands touch her skin. If his hands touched her, she was dead. Andre smiled sweetly, and a pure energy shone in his hands. Thin layers of green mana emerged from them, falling to the ground, creating small life aberrations that rushed toward Alicia.

"Arrght!" Alicia groaned in pain as a bit of blood dripped from her lips. "Come on, we're just getting started." Andre, with a smirk on his lips, approached Alicia slowly. "It seems you know my greatest weakness," he said with a frown. "You haven't let me touch you at all; that's strange." He furrowed his brow a bit.
"Who told you?" His expression turned somber; only he was supposed to know, no one else. His small body disappeared, and his two bones in his hands leaped wildly toward the girl.
The reflection of Alicia's sword glowed, and the place froze for a few seconds. From the void, small crystals emerged, speeding toward Andre. Whistling past Alicia's ears, they shot out like small projectiles. A crystalline figure also emerged from the void, two crystal swords wielded gently toward Andre's neck.
Meanwhile, the boy's green eyes widened, his body expanding to that of an adult, and the bones in his hands rose to block the surprise attack.
"Bang!"
Matías, with no time to lose, his body reflexes shining again, quickly turned his eyes into small crystals. The complete image of the cult leader was recorded in his transparent pupils; in seconds, Andre's face turned ugly, and a mouthful of putrid blood spewed from his lips.
On the other side of Alicia, another figure went flying, the daggers in their hands flying toward the boy.
Andre gritted his teeth, but a smile appeared on his lips; his eyes gleamed, and runes beneath him activated. "Let's go, little brats!" he shouted as the runes on the ground rose and surrounded Andre's body.
The runes stuck to his body with force, a green substance began to emerge from them, which in the same way entered through Andre's 7 orifices. He extended his hands towards the sky, and with a sinister laugh, the green light shone from him, as he screamed with devotion.
