Omega Summoner

Chapter 2079: How the Demon Fights



It might not be shown as much since Adrian is more into team fights but there has been a growing disbelief that he is the strongest player. The rankers especially the ones that has a focus on single target damage often told themselves they could defeat Equinox when it is one on one. They often answer this when interviewed as they thought that they can actually defeat him when in a battle with only them.

Adrian's feats that were captured via video recording are often fights against numerous numbers of enemies. They viewed him as a player that is capable of destroying battlefields when it comes to army battles. They thought that he is just like other summoners that cannot do well when it comes to one-on-one battles. These are the sentiments of rankers that were actually quite new and only arrived when there was a patch for summoners to only be able to use three summoned beasts at a time in exchange for having buffs from soulbounds.

Adrian's combat style is actually geared to him using all of his soulbounds to easily subdue enemies. These new rankers will actually cower in fear if they learn that Adrian was actually the reason why the soulbounds had to be reduced to three active soulbounds without the limit break skill. The numbers that Adrian can do when all of his soulbounds is active is actually so monstrous that he can actually defeat a boss monster in under ten minutes when he is extremely focused.

The developers thought that they needed to limit this as Adrian's very existence and other powerful summoners like him could easily break the balance of the game. This is the real reason why there are now buffs when a soulbound is summoned but it is reduced to three. Still, what the developers did not predict is that there is only about a 15% drop of usual damage numbers when they saw the revision.

Adrian usually did not push himself too much when he has all of his soulbounds. When it was limited to three, he actually had to strategize and push himself to the limits more. A 15% drop in damage numbers might be big but for the developers it is not. Adrian could basically do almost the same damage that he did even with a limitation of three soulbounds. They even thought to remove the buffs given to summoners when a soulbound is active, but they did not because that would nerf the summoner class to the ground.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

The developers had to give up on balancing the summoner class based on Equinox and had to use AI observed data instead. It is not that they cannot, but they should not as balancing a class based on one or a few individuals will make the game miserable for the others. Adrian also rarely focused on an opponent these days as he usually fought against armies which is why numerous new players never saw how he battled.

The world could not see once again how the Demon fights as he is in battle with a mythical tier enemy by himself. Sirius, Kanlaon, Charon, Dodu, and Kimat all came out of the mirrors and attacked the Light Crested Swan simultaneously. The sudden appearance of beings that almost equaled itself made the Light Crested Swan exclaim in shock, but it was too early. Unknown to the Light Crested Swan, another being came out of a sixth mirror, but it was entirely invisible even to it.

The ten mirrors that Adrian conjured suddenly vanished as five of his soulbounds held onto the Light Crested Swan. Sirius bit its neck and injected darkness attribute mana so that it will not turn into shards of light. Kanlaon curled up on one of its large wings so that it cannot fly away. Charon bound its legs and talons as it was trying to use it to attack the ones around it. Dodu turned into a snake like form as well and bound its body while also melting it simultaneously. Kimat bit hard onto the other wing and made sure to release charges of lightning to paralyze the opponent that his master has designated. Lastly, Adrian suddenly appeared behind the Light Crested Swan with a scythe in hand as he flawlessly transitioned from his mirror to his scythe.

"Universal Threat!" Adrian stated as he swung directly on the neck of the Light Crested Swan.

The Light Crested Swan could not even scream out loud as blood dripped from its neck like a fountain. The health of the opponent dropped instantly to the 50% mark as Adrian also managed to land a critical hit. He did not stop though as he rotated once again for another hit, but the Light Crested Swan did not want to go down without a struggle. The Light Crested Swan used all of the divine energy it could muster to create a powerful explosion of light.

Adrian's last attack did connect but the powerful explosion of light did hit him also. One could see numerous beings falling down from the sky and one of them was Adrian. He is currently dazed as the flash of light was so powerful that it made his eyes blind for a few moments. Fortunately for Adrian, Kanlaon was resistant to such blinding light and caught him but the damage they suffered was not little.

Adrian's health was reduced to 25% while his soulbounds almost died except for Kanlaon as he has great resistance to the light element. Kanlaon caught the other soulbounds that were dazzled as well while the giant body of the Light Crested Swan fell to the ground and created a giant crater. A scene of shock could be witnessed as all of the players and even the other flying monsters saw the severed head of the Light Crested Swan.

"I did not think that I would be that lucky." Adrian muttered as he looked at the notifications.
