Chapter 135: Skeleton Elder (1/2)
”What do you mean by 6 people only?!”
”Wait, are there a fewer number of enemies on that side?”
”No, Young Master, there were supposedly more than a thousand monsters on that side.”
”Do you mean more than a thousand monsters were defeated by 6 people only? Are you kidding us?” Harou asked with close smiling eyes.
”Ah-I mean, some participants already brawled with the monsters but they were at the losing side until those 6 people arrived.”
Inside the room, there were a total of 5 people together with Harou, Lyka, and the scout. But both of them were doubtful at the scout's words.
”Are those 6 from the great family experts?” He asked again.
The scout did not ponder for long when he answered, ”two of them are from your family sect, Young Master.”
”Lupine twins?”
The scout nodded.
It made Harou more doubtful. He had no idea how strong Cinder was since she seldom came to family gatherings. But that idiot Ember, he was the weakest among their age inside the family sect.
'And six people fighting against a thousand monsters? What kind of joke is this?'
Seeing the doubtful faces of the people around him, the scout opened his mouth once again. ”Young Master, the cause of their success are those Black Spirit Beasts!”
The last words took his interest.
”B-Black Spirit Beasts?” Harou repeated his words and asked, ”what do you mean?”
”Yeah, one of them could summon such a beast. And the weirdest about it is….. not only one but multiple!”
”.....”
To be honest, it wasn't surprising to see an expert summoning multiple spirit beasts at the same time.
”...really, those near 20 black spirit beasts are nearly invincible,” added the scout.
”What?!”
Everyone exclaimed.
The scout explained to them all the details he knew.
How can someone control so many? Harou and the others couldn't believe it. And nearly invincible Spirit Beasts? They started to feel curious about it.
Based on the scout's information, they could reach there in 3 hours of nonstop travel using their speed-type Spirit Beasts.
Without wasting time, Harou decided to advance towards the west.
Outside, everyone was flabbergasted after witnessing a domineering fight. Who would expect that those black creatures are so OP(Overpower)!
Their flame breath could eliminate multiple enemies at one shot. And they were weirdly effective even against the demons who were known by their high resistance in the fire.
They could not process all the things that happened awhile ago!
Some audiences wanted to change their bet, but the betting was already close because the participants were already at the final stage of the elimination round.
Right at this moment, Mr. Faye announces the new top rank in points.
Rank 1 Cinde Rayla Lupine.
Rank 2 The Mysterious.
Rank 3 Gath Rainripper.
Everyone was wondering why the young miss had a rapid increase in her points even though the number of monsters she killed was lower than the summoned creatures of 'The Mysterious!'
They also noticed that every time those creatures killed the enemies, two people got the point increased, and she was one of them. But most of them were not bothered by it. However, some leaders from great families were watching the competition with great interest.
Nonetheless,
The audience could not forget when that person 'The Mysterious' walked towards the Skeleton Elder. He was being swarmed by 200 plus enemies.
Using his normal fighting ability, he fought with them like a mad man. Killing them one after another with a conventional method.
While the fight was ongoing, everyone had their jaws dropped on the ground.
They wondered if the guy was a psycho.
He wasn't even using a weapon. Well, he occasionally took the weapons of the enemy he killed then used it against them.
Sometimes, he even grabbed some stones and bricks on the ground, he fortified them using low tier spells [Strengthening] and [Durability], then threw it towards the enemies.
Everyone was watching him with uncertain faces. How come there's someone who fights like him? All of them thought so.
The weirdest things they noticed while he was fighting were the demons, they seemed like they were avoiding confronting him. Only the beasts and skeletons that were charging at him.
Right after killing all the beasts that the range enemies on top of the walls were bombarded by his teammates who were riding the black birds. Then the two men with him together with those black creatures rushed forward and confronted the last wave of the enemies.
After losing the backup, he started rushing towards the Skeleton Elder who at that time lost the protection from those on the walls.
The audience and those who died recently in that world inside the painting shook their heads when they noticed him moving near the pagoda.
