302 Seans Deduction (1/2)
'That wasn't as easy as I expected…'
Mountain's ability turned out to be a bit more powerful than expected, not only did he master a preliminary elemental control ability, but that was just his side support technique!
His actual prowess stemmed from his elemental weapon technique as it was actually more powerful than it seemed to be, it surprisingly had the ability to slightly influence gravity as the mountain splitter attack he threw at me would have been impossible to avoid if I didn't have my abnormal speed.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that his offensive power was on the upper part of the scale, which proved somewhat hard for me to deal with since I didn't have the intention to kill him, forcing me to activate all the veins at the same time to give the spear's pole enough power to knock him out without leaving much damage to him, mostly relying on the paralysis effect of lightning…
'It was a bit satisfying though.'
As Mountain was one of the few people who somewhat managed to get on my nerves easier than they should be, it felt a bit good to give him triple smacks to help him sleep and calm down after holding back till now…
”Your intention…?” Sean finally had a serious expression on his face as he sent me a questioning stare.
”You needn't worry much, I don't plan on killing him or anything, he is an acquaintance of Lan after all, I was just replying to his provocation.”
Seeing the slightly hostile yet worried expression on Sean's face, who I could already sense that he was preparing his elements discreetly, I assured him as I didn't plan to continue fighting. Smacking Mountain to sleep was already more than enough to achieve my goal, and I was sure that Sean himself understood that my abilities weren't measurable using normal power scales, he was just preparing in case I went fully hostile…
”I got the message you wanted to deliver… We will take him and leave…” Sean said, as he slowly approached me as he tried to lift Mountain's big body on his shoulders
'Oh?'
Noticing the shrewd expression hidden under his affirming complexion, I couldn't help but feel slightly surprised…
'He actually understood half of my intention…?'
His reply and his following swift actions showed that his intellect wasn't normal either, and while I was sure he didn't get the part that I was also Lan, it seemed that he managed to understand the underlying intention of mine to prove the strength of Lan's backing.
”Alright then… I'm leaving then, the horses that you left should be in their place so take Lan's horse back with you, he used another mean of transport to leave…”
”Ok, thanks for looking after us while we were deeply passed out…”
”No problem.”
