Chapter 140 Azul And Fey

Chapter 140 Azul And Fey

The first wave of attack came like lightning.

Azul, the warrior mercenary that Evals Redart often employed at his side, was incredibly strong.

However, his true ability lay in his speed.

And so...

~WHOOSH!~

... He had closed the distance between himself and his target before the latter could even notice.

He pulled out a sword from its scabbard, and the thing glowed blue, revealing the Mana that was locked within.

Azul's sword was enchanted—and that pretty much applied to the rest of his armor.

He had enhanced strength, durability, focus, resistance, and most important of all... speed!

~ZZTZZ!~

His blade cackled with electricity as his entire armor began sparking with the entire thing.

Using his [Lightning Field] Skill early on, in order to stun the enemy, was not necessary, since he was simply meant to distract and lure the enemy in while his partner—Fey—did the rest.

However, Azul found such a complicated maneuver to be a chore.

Especially considering their enemy.

"Haaa!" His blade descended in a perfect vertical slash, sending ripples of shock—literal shock—flying all around.

It took a few seconds for the dust to die down, and for Azul to realize what just went down.

'W-what?!'

He didn't hit his target?!

"[Transmute]." He suddenly heard behind him.

~VWUUUUSHH!~

A wave of energy went through his armor, causing the entire thing to break apart that very instant.

"A-ahhh!" Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

Azul found himself naked, save for his underwear. His only layer of clothing had been broken down, leaving him powerless and defenseless.

'H-how fast... is he...?!'

Azul didn't have time to dwell on such thoughts, though. He could feel the enemy's hand drawing closer to his bare back.

His bulging eyes turned bloodshot in shock... and fear.

Azul was impulsive, yes, but he wasn't stupid.

Based on his experience with the armor, he knew what would happen if the same power was sent coursing through his flesh.

Due to many years of training and practice, Azul had tempered his body to its limits.

His muscles were rock-solid, and he took pride in his immense durability—as well as his superior speed—that made him invincible as a warrior.

But...

'If he could so easily get rid of that rough armor, what the hell is my body in comparison?!'

The fear of death assailed Azul, forcing the extremely prideful man to yell out the words he didn't want to.

"F-FEYYYY!!"

Like a baby, he cried out the name of his ally.

And then, a bolt of electricity surged forth from her location—almost as if she was waiting for him to scream her name.

~WHOOSH!~

Fey suddenly felt herself being pulled forward.

'E-eh...?'

She had no idea why. Only a blank space existed in front of her, yet she could feel an irresistible attraction to it.

'N-no! No stop!'

Her body uncontrollably left her barrier, and she was thrust out into the open by something she could not understand.

'No!'

Fey began moving her lips, chanting another Spell. Right as she got in the middle of it, though.

"Keuk!"

A sharp sensation spread to her throat as she felt something strong grabbing her neck.

Her chanting abruptly ended, and she found herself being thrust to the ground beneath her.

'No... no stop!'

~BOOOOM!~

Fey's frail body powerlessly crashed to her ground, sending sensations of shock and pain spreading across it.

"Gurgh!"

She passed out almost instantly, her blurry vision seeing a silhouette that stood above her.

It was the masked man!

'No... no please don't kill me...!'

She couldn't move her body, though.

Fey could only plead with her thoughts as she lost all feeling within her body and sank into an abyss.

... Not knowing what would come next.

******

'This guy...'

Evals Redart watched the whole battle on his seat from beginning to end.

He saw how the masked man had supposedly vanished, moving up and about, to deceive his enemies while striking their blind spots.

A broad smile coursed through his face.

'I've figured out your trick.' Evals slowly rose to his feet as he stared at the now apparent being before him

'He's using an Illusionary Skill.'

Unfortunately for this masked fellow, such things weren't going to work on someone like Evals.

'I see everything!'
