"Phantom Rebirth: The Last White Raven’s Path to the Ultimate Assassin"-Chapter 374: The Storm of Black Fire – Arming Raven’s Perch
Forging Destruction in the Dark
The
black flames danced in Seraphis’ eyes
as she worked tirelessly in the forge chamber of
Raven’s Perch
.
Her body moved with
precision
, fingers steady as she crafted the
Voidflame Arrows
one by one.
Each arrowhead was
shaped, carved, and engraved
with the intricate runes that allowed them to
contain the power of the Voidfire.
"500 arrows."
That was her goal.
Every arrow would be stored in the
twelve arrow storms
atop the stronghold’s
mighty walls
.
A test would soon follow—
a storm of black flames
raining upon the sea below.
She smirked.
"Let’s see if this works."
The First Hundred – A Perfect Assembly Line
Seraphis moved in
rhythm
, etching the
Voidflame runes
onto the first set of arrowheads.
Her process was
precise
:
Shape the arrowheads
– Metal had to be smooth, resistant to breaking.
Engrave the runes
– The key to holding Voidfire without burning away.
Imbue the essence
– A pulse of her
mana
was required for activation.
Final testing
– Each arrow must hold its power until released.
By the time she reached her
hundredth arrow
, she had perfected her technique.
"Only 400 more to go."
She didn’t
stop.
The Unyielding Focus of a Creator
Hours passed, but she remained
completely absorbed
in her work.
The forge’s heat, the smell of molten metal, the constant sound of engraving—it was
intoxicating
.
Each arrow she crafted was a
testament
to her growing skill.
By the time she had
finished 250
, her fingers were
numb
, but her mind was sharper than ever.
"Voidfire will change everything."
Her
soldiers wouldn’t just fire arrows
—they would
unleash devastation.
The Final Arrow – A Work of Art
When she reached the
500th arrow
, she decided to make it
unique.
Unlike the others, this one would be
engraved with a personal rune
—a sigil that marked it as hers.
She etched a small
White Raven insignia
onto the arrowhead, ensuring that it stood out.
"This one’s special."
A final pulse of
Voidfire energy
sealed the arrow’s magic.
Her work was complete.
"Now, let’s test them."
Equipping the Arrow Storms
Seraphis climbed to the
battlements
of Raven’s Perch, where
twelve massive arrow storms
stood—each capable of firing a
barrage of death
.
Her men were already
waiting
, eyes gleaming with anticipation.
She gestured toward the
boxes of Voidflame Arrows
, stacked neatly beside the launchers.
"Load them up."
The soldiers
moved swiftly
, slotting the
deadly ammunition
into the arrow storms.
The runes on the arrows
pulsed faintly
, resonating with their
stored power.
Seraphis observed in silence.
The
storm was about to begin.
Setting the Target
A lone
wooden dummy
was set afloat in the
dark waters
beneath the stronghold.
It drifted idly, waiting to be
annihilated.
Seraphis stepped forward, her
voice cold and clear
.
"Let’s begin the test."
Her soldiers
stood at the ready
, gripping the launch mechanisms.
She
raised her hand.
The command was given.
"Fire."
The First Shot – Voidfire in Motion
TWANG!
The first
arrow storm launched
, sending
ten Voidflame Arrows
streaking through the air.
For a moment, they were nothing more than
shadows against the night sky
.
Then—
BOOM!
The
dummy exploded upon impact
, consumed by writhing
black flames
.
Voidfire didn’t just burn—it
devoured
, dissolving the wood into
nothingness.
A slow grin spread across Seraphis' face.
"Perfect."
The Full Barrage – A Storm of Black Fire
"Fire again."
This time, all
twelve arrow storms
launched in unison.
120 Voidflame Arrows
streaked toward the dummy, leaving behind trails of
dark smoke and violet embers
.
Upon impact—
A massive explosion erupted.
The waters beneath the dummy
boiled
as the flames spread across the surface.
The Voidfire
did not extinguish.
Instead, it
clung to the sea itself
, creating a
nightmarish inferno upon the waves.
The entire crew
stared in awe.
"This changes everything."
Assessing the Results
Seraphis
analyzed the aftermath
, watching as the
flames continued to burn despite the water.
The
dummy had vanished completely
, leaving nothing but
blackened waves.
"The fire doesn’t need fuel."
Voidfire existed
beyond normal physics
—it was a force of
unmaking.
This was
not just a weapon.
This was
destruction itself.
The Future of Warfare
Seraphis turned to her men.
"Load every arrow storm with Voidflame Arrows."
They obeyed without hesitation.
This was no longer a
mere experiment.
This was an
advantage.
With
500 Voidflame Arrows
locked and ready, Raven’s Perch had become
unstoppable.
She looked out over the sea, watching the flames flicker.
"Anyone foolish enough to attack us…"
Her eyes burned with
determination.
"Will be reduced to ashes."
