Chapter 477 - Turn Around (2) (1/2)
After deflecting Julia's spell, the cult's leader glanced at the soldier who attacked him. He brandished his sword towards the soldier.
The soldier blocked the cult's leader attack. However, the cult's leader had two swords. Using the other sword, the cult's leader swept his other sword from the bottom diagonally upward.
The soldier was not prepared for this attack. Moreover, the cult's leader's strength was not a joke. The soldier tried to move back for a bit. However, he was too late to react.
The tip of the cult's leader's sword grazed his body. Not only that, but the soldier also lost his sword. His sword flung away before landing a meter behind him.
The cult's leader changed his posture and stabbed both of his swords to the soldier's chest. However, before the stab could reach the soldier, Auron's [Fire Bolt] from the side hit the sword's blade. It changed the course of the attack and missed the soldier's chest.
The soldier quickly retreated back. However, cold sweat already filled his forehead and all over his body. He was only a step before death. Fortunately, Auron saved him.
The cult's leader gritted his teeth. He was disappointed to not be able to kill the soldier. However, he quickly dispersed that thought as he looked over at Auron and attacked him.
Auron summoned an [Earth Wall]. The cult's leader's attack met with the [Earth Wall]. However, the [Earth Wall] got pierced through by the sheer power.
Auron already anticipated this to happen. As soon as he summoned the [Earth Wall], he quickly jumped back. So, when the cult's leader's sword pierced through the wall, Auron already far from the sword's reach.
Meanwhile, Alice, along with two elite soldiers, were pressuring the demonic monster. Their goal was to deplete the demonic monster's health slowly while maintaining their safety.
The three of them actually were weaker than the demonic monster. However, each of them got a private cleric to support them. Moreover, there was also archer's support from behind them.
Time passed by. There were several casualties on the soldier's side. Meanwhile, the demonic monster's health was already decreasing over time.
Currently, the demonic monster only had 30% of its health left. It was such a slow and long process to reach this point. The cult's founders also felt more pressure as the demonic monster's health reduced to this point.
The cult's founders knew that when the demonic monster died, then all of these soldiers in front of them would pour out at them and captured them at ease. Moreover, their resources had already low.
After this long battle, the cult's founders almost out of their potions. The same thing also happened to Auron's side. However, Auron still could occasionally provide the soldiers with potions through his so-called 'cheat'.
The cult's leader racked his brain on how to escape this situation. While fighting, he occasionally glanced at his two teammates. However, his two teammates' situation also not good.
Another five minutes passed by. The demonic monster's health was reduced to 28%. It was such a slow and steady process.
Alice looked at the overall situation. And, everything went on as her expectation. It would be difficult to stop the cult's founder since they had the support of the cleric. However, it was not the case for the demonic monster. The demonic monster would die sooner or later.
