Chapter 111 - Are You Tired Of Breathing? (2/2)

As Nzou was preparing his skill, Merlin was preparing hers as well, her skill was rather simplistic in nature. The water above her vanished while her wand started turning into a large arrow of light. Although this was a simple skill, it did not have a set restriction on the amount of mana Merlin could input, so she could put virtually all her remaining mana into it. It did, however, require some time to prepare. Thanks to the buff by Woodsy and the actions of Taiga and Nzou, she was able to produce a powerful light arrow, one which radiated heat that made the area very uncomfortable.

Although water skills were her forte, she was after all a genius and had many tricks up her sleeve. She quickly loaded the arrow in Karim's bow, who pulled it until it was taut.

Francisco pulled his rapier and drew a circle in the air, creating a gel-like ball. Francisco then cut the sphere into two. Then he pointed his sword at Karim, or rather, the bow in his hand as said, ”Momentum Arms!” He then pointed his sword at Gabby and shouted, ”Speed Arms!”

The two gels covered their respective targets, covering them in a metallic-like sheen.

Just as the gel hit her, Gabby unleashed a skill of hers, which turned her into a humanoid cat-like creature. After the gel hit her, her speed went up by many folds, and she went straight for Will. Once she reached the currently immobile Will she scratched him once with four of her claws, drawing away quickly. In less than half a second, she was back to her position and human again.

Alexa smiled at Gabby's progress. She could assume the traits of any one of her tamed creatures, but this only lasted for a second or two. She used this chance to turn into one of her most toxic creatures. The Nether Poison Lynx.

Its claws were imbued with an odd poison, which made the target highly combustible within seconds. This only lasted for a few minutes, but during those minutes the poison would also spread all over the target's body and act as a tranquilizer. By getting the speed boost from Francisco, the energy boost from Woodsy and turning into the Lynx, Gabby was able to maximize her gifts in the best way possible for quick combat, which her class wasn't suited to.

The last one to act was Salty, she quickly conjured a black flame, which she controlled to cover the arrow of light on Karim's bow. These were Enchanting Element Flames, and they could enhance the elemental attributes of any object and ability. Conjuring this flame took half of her total mana while controlling it to enchant powerful magic like Merlin's Arrow of light took most of what was left.

This was a team effort, one in which the majority gambled on by using their most powerful yet energy-draining skills. Once this duel was over, the only people capable of fighting would only be Francisco and Woodsy.

Alexa doubted that Will could stop this attack, hence she spoke out, ”According to the rules of the empire, as you voluntarily agreed to this unfavorable battle, you have the right to say a few last words, what say you?”

Alexa doubted that Will could speak right now because she was that confident of the restrictions placed upon him. Her initial plan was to take his silence as a plea for mercy and stop the fight, but her plan fell through. Will's somewhat raspy voice echoed out in her ears.

”You guys are actually trying to kill me…are you tired of breathing?”
