129 Bloodbath Part 2 (1/2)

”Any new ideas?” Sung Li asks.

”My last plan may not have worked out perfectly, but it still had some effect.” I say.

While I couldn't take care of all Cyclops with that strategy, I did make rocks penetrate the feet of half of them. Fortunately, those are the ones that are using tree trunks as weapons. This is why I have been able to get away and not become their target. Their feet probably hurt like hell and chasing me is really hard for them for that reason.

If we were in the normal conditions though, they probably wouldn't even be standing now because of the pain. The reason they are still able to chase me is because they are mindless slaves of these wizards around us.

”Hah!”

The problem with my last plan was that I was missing the forest for trees. I had realized that the Cyclops were the immediate threat and made a plan to take them out but didn't account in it what these wizards maybe capable of doing.

So, this time, I am going to incorporate them.

”What are you gonna do?” Sung Li asks as he stands back up on his feet and runs his eyes on the enemies at every side.

I casually answer, ”Sacrifice you!”

As soon as he heard that, he looks back in shock and gets even more shocked as he does not see the ally he had had for this entire time. I am nowhere in his sight, or at least that's what he thinks. Who he sees in front of him is a wizard standing a little closer than every other wizard. This wizard is wearing a dark robe and a hat like every other wizard around and has a pretty ugly face. Therefore, there is no way for him to tell that this wizard is me.

Yes, as mentioned before, this is the first move I stole from them – the ability to change my appearance. Because of this though, not only is Sung Li confused but,

”W-which one!?” Even the Cyclops are asking questions like that to the wizards as they just can't figure where I am.

Think about it, if a cat suddenly turned into a dog and mixed in with other dogs, would you be able to tell it apart. That's how it is for the Cyclops right now. That said though, the wizards obviously can tell me apart. They are probably masters at using this move by now and so there is no way I can fool them. And – I don't need to.

”My brethren,” I say in a chaotic voice as I point to Sung Li, ”kill this man in front of you!”

Confused and irritated at these developments, Sung Li attacks me. This was a chance I had to take and so I did, and thankfully, it paid off. I avoid his attack in time but that attack is able to take out a few wizards not very far from me. I use the little time-frame I get to run into the crowd of wizards and let them become my meat shields against that enraged idiot.

I can hear him yelling as he slices through every single wizard he comes across. After gaining enough distance from him, I touch the ground and stay there for a mere 2 seconds before I start running off again. The wizards try to stop me but are unable to because of their rather weak physical attributes. Sung Li keeps slicing off wizards left and right and will probably become a target of some of their attacks and die.

Or at least, that's how the wizards would think it will go. In that 2 second touching of the ground, I had turned the gravels in the ground into my puppets.
