Chapter 164: In Another Life (2)

Lord Kieran knew that he was stuck in a conundrum right then. If he avoided the Red King's next attack, his castle and the rest of the members of his court would perish from the surface of the earth. Despite their opposing ideas, the High Lord took the welfare and safety of his people as his utmost priority, added to the fact that he was the one responsible for the desolate state the land was in right now.

This spell of the Red King's not only causes physical damage to its enemies, but it drains one's magical power, forbidding them to use it in retaliation. After that, it steals its opponent's spiritual power, which would kill their mind. However, using such a powerful skill also leaves its user at a disadvantage because the Red King would lose as much magical power that his opponent had lost equally, thus, he would be left vulnerable at the same time.
