Chapter 224: Easy Heist and the Side Quest (2/2)

”Kill them and let's go.”

We already talked about this and she's in total agreement with what I planned to do. The possibility of another Transcendent emerging in the ranks of the enemies was surely dreadful. If we could decrease it even if there's only one, I would choose to still go through it.

Fleur nodded. As soon as her feet touched the ground, she lifted her branch-originated staff and channeled her Water Elemental Energy onto it.

In less than a second, a Spell Nucleus was instantly formed at the tip of her staff. As the surge of Water Element got extracted from the surroundings, a 9-nodes Water Elemental Spell was unleashed upon the elites who were fighting off my clones.

The Spell which Fleur cast zoomed past them and transformed into nine ice lion-like beasts. The nine ice lions divided themselves into three groups. After that, they each picked a target to lunge at.

One female Noxian became the target of the first group. Unluckily for her, she has just been sent flying away and had one of her wings cut off.

Before she could even land on the ground, the three ice lions leapt towards her. At that point, dodging or defending herself was already impossible. Each head of the ice lions bit her at three different spots. One aimed for the neck, one aimed for her arms and one aimed for the last wing attached on her hips.

As her sorrowful scream filled our ears, the blue ice tigers became stained red by her blood that was spilled.

At the same time as that, the other two groups of ice lions both aimed at the other elites that were staying at the periphery. They seemed to be afraid to engage my clones but they were observing it carefully.

Because of that, they were caught unaware of the danger which found them.

Like the first one, two more agonizing screams became the highlight of the moment which made the remaining elites shudder in place.

When the nine lions finished their targets, they disappeared by melting into puddles of water.

Those lower-ranked Noxians and Dark World denizens stationed at the nodes who had just managed to recover from the Energy Storm were instantly met with the sight of that butchery made by the ice lions.

They gawked at what's happening and cowardly took a step back, trembling on their knees.

And when they noticed the origin of that Spell, another bout of shock hit them as they all froze in the spot with some who at least managed to utter her name.

There were also others who shouted as if they're afraid that we wouldn't hear them.

”Elemental Supreme Fleur! Why is she here?!”

”We're done for. Where are our Unparalleled?”

”Fleur is one thing but that guy… Who is he?”

”Forget that. Let's run before we get implicated!”

Their shouts reached us but we couldn't be bothered to care for them.

Since Fleur already made her move, it's my turn again.

Of course, I picked the two elites who were closest to reaching the threshold to Transcendence. The Noxian youth who had just stood up from where he landed and the Dark World denizen who's currently coordinating with his fellow Dark World denizen to deal with one of the clones.

The Willful Sword flew from its scabbard and hovered in front of me. Ever since it awakened during my Transcendent Trials, it's always excited whenever I will fight someone. Even when I was piloting a Metagen, it attached itself on the huge Regenium Sword, enhancing it.

Now, it got another chance to flaunt in front of me. Sparks of lightning instantly exuded out from it and the blue-colored Swordforce coated it from its hilt up to its tip.

”You're always lively in direct contrast to your owner. Well then, do your job.”

I talked to it and surprisingly, it shook as if it's nodding at me. It didn't really need to use any Energy Explosion Projectile to turn it into a solidified Purple Sword, just the Willful Sword was already enough to cut them down. However, to make it error-free, I still opened the Bedevilled Outburst and turned it into a Purple Sword.

It is overkill but I'm just making sure that they will really die here.

I already sensed the Noxian Transcendents. By how strong their Transcendent Aura that swept past our location, it also gave me the chance to pinpoint their location through it.

They're already on their way towards this location and they only needed a little over thirty seconds to reach the Tower.

Both of them appeared from the tallest castle in this Central Area. They're together and most likely, the two are a couple, having their time together.

Our sudden appearance most possibly destroyed that moment for them and they'll arrive here pissed off from our interference.

Well, not like I care about that and even before they arrive, we'll be long gone.

After turning the Willful Sword into a Purple Lightning Sword, I gripped it in my hand and moved to end the remaining elites.
