Chapter 241 May Versus Buster

"Yeah, we don't do that here." Risa said as she appeared right behind Buster.

The latter seemed surprised for a split second before moving away from his location.

"You must be the one they all warned me about." Buster commented. "You don't look very intimidating. In fact, you look quite beautiful."

"Thank you for the flattery." Risa smiled. "But that doesn't mean you can leave."

"I don't think you know the difference between our powers. I cam defeat all three of you combined." Buster snorted.

Risa facepalmed and started massaging her forehead.

"You are a new commander, aren't you? No wonder you are so cocky and overconfident. Even my grandson would be able to beat you if he tries hard enough."

"Now that's an insult…" Buster flexed his muscles once before disappearing from his spot.

At least that's what he thought happened.

Jason, May and Risa could easily track his movements with their respective abilities. Risa simply raised her right hand up and blocked Buster's punch.

The ground beneath her feet shook a bit yet Risa remained firmly on her spot. She raised an eyebrow towards Buster before punching forward with her other hand.

Before Buster could react, a punch hit him in the middle of his body. He was sent flying by Risa's punch and crashed against multiple trees.

"May, go ahead and fight him. I will look after you to make sure that you don't get harmed too much." Risa instructed as she stared at Buster.

Tendrils of divine energy were wrapping themselves around his arms, making them appear even thicker.

Risa wasn't bothered by the appearance of the tendrils since she had already seen that Buster was a divinity wielder.

May on the other hand felt a bit excited as she activated her own divinity. The power inside her divinity charged up her staff, making it appear golden for a few seconds.

"Close range or long range?" she asked Risa.

"Long range for the time being. I will tell you when to go up close."

"All right. Expand!" The staff suddenly shot forward, aiming towards Buster chest.

The latter stared at it fearlessly and punched forward at the last second. The tendrils of divine energy covered his fist and turned into spikes.

May immediately increased the weight of the staff and made it appear as thick as Buster's hand.

The two things came into contact, creating a loud explosion. Jason's eyes were focused on the point of contact between Buster's spike covered hands and the staff.

Like he had predicted, the spikes had completely been broken away while the staff didn't even have a crack in it.

Risa was surprised by this while Buster gritted his teeth and decided to attack May up close.

[ Jason, travel to one of the branches and observe the battle from there. Don't interfere unless I tell you do so. ] Risa said as the two of them vanished from their spots.

May realized that she had to fight Buster on her own and shrunk her staff. However, she remembered Risa's words about fighting Buster at a long range unless she told her not to.

May immediately summoned Kwinto and rode the cloud to avoid conflicting with Buster.

Simultaneously, she got to know about another feature of Kwinto. She raised her right hand towards the ground and took a deep breath.

"Release, Kwinto!" the moment the words left her mouth, Kwinto exploded with bursts of thunder.

May transfered some of the energy to her staff and watched a layer of thunder wrap around it.

Below the ground, Buster had to dodge the incoming attacks while punching some of them.

Jason wasn't bothered by the thunder and simply absorbed all the attacks that came his way. Risa wasn't too bothered either because when it came to thunder, she had lived with three generations of thunder mages who could have exploded at any given time.

[ May, you can fight him head on once the thunder barrage ends. Your goal is to knock him out as soon as you can. ] Risa instructed.

"You are tougher than you look." Buster commented once the thunder barrage was over.

"And you aren't half as strong as you look." May retorted before commanding Kwinto to go towards the ground.

Now that she could fight Buster head on, May decided to go all out. Kwinto already provided her with a good speed boost and her staff was more than enough to deal with Buster.

The latter realized what was happening. He immediately summoned more tendrils of divine energy from his divinity, creating an armor around himself.

His hands were also covered with two layers of divine energy as he launched himself at May.

'That staff of hers isn't that ideal for short range combat especially when fighting a brawler like me. I should have the advantage here.' Buster thought as he aimed at May's skull.

Unfortunately, he was completely wrong.

As if she was creating ripples through water, May swiftly moved the staff upwards and blocked Buster's attack.

She swung the staff again and somehow hit Buster's shoulder, creating a crack in his armor.

Buster came back to his senses and started using martial arts. Somehow, May was able to use her staff as though it was an organ of her body.

She blocked every single blow launched towards her and created multiple cracks in Buster's armor.

'Fk it! I have to get rid of that staff.'

Buster changed his strategy and faked going in for a blow. Just like he expected, May used the staff to block his attack.

His hand tightened around the staff as a grin appeared on his face

"Got you!" Buster went in with a punch from his free hand.

May simply raised an eyebrow. Much to Buster's shock, she let go off the staff and dusted her hands.

"If you don't know much about someone's weapon, its best that you don't touch it." May said as the staff's weight changed to the maximum limit.

Buster was immediately pulled towards the ground before his shoulder was torn off from his body. Not only that but his muscles ruptured and his blood flow turned uneven.

May simply hit the bottom of the staff with her foot and lifted it up in her hand.

To deal the finishing blow, she simply brought the staff down on Buster's head as a light cracking sound resounded throughout the place…
