Chapter 2770 Person Of Interest
Though she had initially managed to hold her own against the Destroyer, Forlevia quickly found herself overwhelmed by five opponents.
Despite steadily gaining their advantage, Mr. X and his comrades felt terrified at her ability to still hold her own.
The alliance had intended to rush forth to aid her but found themselves being held back by the relentless assault of the Diviniteria troops who had formed a dense wall to separate the alliance from reaching Forlevia.
Besides, the ordinary soldiers would not be of much help as their martial level was too far beneath Mr. X and his comrades.
As a result, the troops of the alliance could only watch in horror as their savior struggled to hold her ground.
“Capture her!” Mr. X snarled. “By orders of Sacroria!”
If the Gods were not ordered to refrain from claiming her life, Forlevia might not have been able to survive.
Despite being a child prodigy in forging her own path, Forlevia had not yet had the time to allow her skills to fully mature and blossom to their full potential.
As a result, she found herself no match for five opponents of a similar skill level to hers.
Just as she was about to succumb to their relentless strikes, Forlevia recalled being in possession of aid and hurriedly produced a wooden box from her pocket.
After letting the box fall and shatter, she obtained the Pill of Valoroum within which was given to her by the Divine Brigadier.
Despite there being three in total, the only one left was entrusted into Forlevia’s care long ago to be used when she needed it the most.
In other words, it was used to ensure the continued survival of The Cardinal Hall’s future through its heir which to the Divine Brigadier was Forlevia.
Forlevia was in grave danger at that point. Despite the attempts of her opponents to merely capture her, she was determined not to allow them the opportunity to do so.
From the instant Forlevia ingested the pill, she felt a surge of red-hot power from her belly all the way through to her fingertips.
At that moment, she felt as if the wrath of a dragon who had been asleep for a thousand years was awakening within her.
With a primal roar that shook the ground escaping from her lips, soldiers from both sides of the battle froze as if in the presence of true divinity.
Even the representatives from The Cardinal Hall were awestruck by the sight.
Though they knew of the power of the Pill of Valoroum, they did not expect it to be of this extent.
They were unaware that the pill would only bring out one’s true potential after they had maximized their natural ceiling, as Forlevia had.
At the time of his consumption, the Divine Brigadier himself had only managed to increase his ceiling by only a little bit because the effect of the pill was contingent upon the consumer’s own ability.
At that moment, Forlevia was exuding the true power of the pill.
She was so powerful that all five of her opponents were forced back just when they were about to succeed in their endeavor.
Upon noticing that the alliance was about to be overwhelmed by the Diviniteria forces, she leaped in between them and with another burst of brute force, threw the entire battalion of the enemy back.
What raw power to be able to single-handedly turn the entire tide of war!
With the aid of the pill, Forlevia had managed to ascend yet another level beyond her natural capabilities.
The troops of Diviniteria stood quaking in fear.
Forlevia’s power must be equal to Sacrioria’s! What a terrifying show of force! With the basics of her abilities already that powerful, Forlevia would be able to manipulate the elements with even greater finesse than she did before.
Many of the Diviniteria forces fell from Forlevia’s swift blow.
At the sight of their fallen comrades, the others scrambled to avoid being hit.
At this rate, she is going to turn the entire tide of battle all on her own!
Mr. X frowned thoughtfully as he deduced the impermanent nature of the augmentation. “She swallowed a pill which granted her an extraordinary burst of strength. We just have to wait for the effects to wear off then we can overwhelm her again. Notify Sacroria of the proceedings and inform Dr. Erebus that there is a person and a pill that might be of interest to him!”
Despite looking as if she had the battle entirely in control on her own, Forlevia felt the effects of the pill wearing off.
The illusion of my heroism will soon be shattered.
