Chapter 472 - Taking a Risk (1)

Alice occasionally looked around at the battlefield when she was fighting against the demonic monster.

Currently, the situation looked pretty good. The husband and wife pair's demonic monster's health depleted steadily while both people and the soldiers they led were in a pretty good state.

On the strongest demonic monster's side, it was still fighting against the elite soldiers. Even without any command from Alice, the elite soldiers had done pretty well. Among the 150 elite soldiers that had come, there were only two of them that died. Everything was thanks to the teamwork and cleric's support.

Meanwhile, the strongest demonic monster's health was slowly depleted. Its current health was at 95%.

On Alice's side, she was maintaining a pretty good situation against the demonic monster. Alice had previously fought for a brief against the strongest demonic monster, so when she fought against the current demonic monster who was weaker, it was more relaxed. However, she didn't underestimate the current demonic monster and took it seriously.

With the soldiers' help around her, Alice had managed to reduce the demonic monster's health to 75%.

Alice had seen Auron's and Julia's side. She knew that facing the three founders was not an easy feat. However, she thought that with the soldiers' help around them, they could somehow manage it.

But Alice was wrong. It was proved with the situation at Auron's side. More victims were produced on Auron's side. Moreover, the cult's leader had changed his style to a two-swords style. Although Alice wanted to help them, she could not since she had her own enemy to deal with.

Auron was slashing his sword at the cult's leader. However, his mind was full of thought. He was thinking about how to get out of this situation. If he could not get out of this current situation, it would be a matter of time before they were massacred.

Auron was racking his brain to come up with a solution. A sword slash was coming at him. He was distracted and blocked the incoming slash. Then, several attacks followed the slash.

Auron tried his best to block the attack. Since the cult's leader had two swords, the delay between each attack was quick. Auron had reacted very fast to stop the attack. If he responded late, it would be his end. For these several attacks, Auron's mind was preoccupied with blocking the attack.

Meanwhile, Julia, who was dealing with the thief, had a pretty good situation. The thief could not advance or move to help the cult's leader because his hand was full of blocking the attacks and protecting the cleric.

Four soldiers arrived and helping Auron. With these four soldiers, he was more relaxed and could think of a solution more.

Actually, Auron had already an idea. However, that idea was too risky and could reap his life. So, he didn't want to take that idea and was trying to develop a different idea.

Time passed. More and more victims died under the hand of the demonic monsters and the three founders. From the time that the 150 elite soldiers had arrived until now, there were already 30 more victims. And, 10 of them were the elite soldiers that had just come.

This showed how strong the strongest demonic monster here was. It still had 93% of its health, but it already killed 10 elite soldiers. 

By calculation, the 150 elite soldiers were enough to kill the strongest demonic monster on their own. However, it would not happen if everything that happened on the battlefield were accounted for.

If the elite soldiers were preoccupied and took a long time to kill the strongest demonic monster, all the soldiers, including Auron, Julia, Alice, and the others, would die first. When it happened, it would not be only the strongest demonic monster that they had to face, but also the three founders.

Everyone knew all about this. That was why they tried their best to kill their enemies as soon as possible while preserving their own life.

Bang... Auron blocked the cult's leader's [Bash]. He staggered three steps backward. However, Auron could not launch counter-attacks since the cult's leader attacked him using the other sword.

After the cult's leader had used the two-sword style, Auron was on the defensive stance. It was because his strength was weaker to begin with.

When Auron was blocking the attack, the other soldiers helped him by attacking the cult's leader. It was pretty helpful to release the burden, but the cleric behind the cult's leader also didn't idle. 

Auron looked around the battlefield. The current situation seemed pretty good. However, he could not be sure that the situation would not turn around in the next few minutes.

Auron moved back and approached Julia, then he said, "Cover me!"

After saying that sentence, Auron dashed forward. He had made a choice. Since he could not come up with another solution, he would take up the risky choice.

Auron dashed forward to the cult's leader who was busy fighting against the soldiers. While dashing Auron launched his spell to the cult's leader. The cult's leader already prepared with Auron attack and deflected the spell. 

As Auron was approaching, the cult's leader observed Auron's movement so he could take a measure when Auron was attacking him. 

However, to his surprise, Auron was charging past him. Of course, the cult's leader didn't idle and chased him.

Auron was advancing towards the thief. The thief astonished but he was ready. The cleric behind him also ready to support the thief when something bad happened. 

When Auron was approaching the thief, he launched a spell at the thief. Meanwhile, Julia also helped Auron by attacking the cult's leader behind him.

Both spells were blocked by its respective target but it was enough to distract the target. The thief moved closer to the cleric so he could easily defend the cleric. 

When Auron was close to the thief, he suddenly used his movement skills. His speed increased, but he didn't charge at the thief, instead, he was advancing towards the cave.
