"Now that we know that enemy, what we need to do is plan. Although there were six of them, golems, just like what we've faced before, were inherently slow-moving. We have to make sure to use it to our advantage." Despite just recovering from the severe injuries that he suffered from the last battle, Jin was eager to fight. The scary experience didn't do anything to his resolve.
Fatty raised his hand and asked. "So, what should we do now?"
Caleb rolled his eyes. Stay connected with m|vl|e|mp|y|r
"You don't need to do anything but to run. At least, try not to get in the way just like before."
"I know... I'm just asking. Who knows, Jin here might have a good plan for us." Fatty shrugged off Caleb's remarks, ignoring the latter's offending words. He knew what his friend was saying was right. After all, he wasn't so stupid to act high and mighty.
Clifford, Andre, and Luna wondered how Fatty could be so shameless that he dared to call the Vice-Captain by his name directly. After all, he wasn't a member of the hunting party and he was more like a burden, just like them.
Hearing this, Dunn and Jin looked at each other and let out a chuckle. Jin felt that Fatty was a funny kid that could always lighten the mood and due to this, he started to have a good impression of him. He shook his head to remove the distracting thoughts in his head.
"Have you thought of a plan?" Fushigiro asked and looked intently at Jin.
"It's a division of labor. Since Tamasai didn't help earlier. He would be the one responsible for testing the waters." Jin said and gave Tamasai a look of scowl. Until now, he still hates the guy's guts. With his strength, he could have done something to save their friends.
Why hide his strength? Does he not care about Athena and Miles, who have been with them for years? Although he knew that most of them weren't that jovial with Tamasai, they at least considered him their friend. He didn't expect when the time came, he would do nothing and would just watch them die.
At this time, Jin watched intently with unknown meaning on his face. Even with Caleb's worth of experience, he couldn't guess Jin's surface thoughts or what was going through his mind right now.
A second later, the motionless guardians' gazes landed on Tamasai's body. A heavy pressuring aura descended... making the trees nearby Tamasai and the golems fall. The leaves couldn't bear the pressure. Even though the members were far away, they felt as if a heavy weight had appeared on their shoulders. Their movements became stiff.
Jin, Fushigiro, Caleb, Rina, and Dunn tried to fight against the pressure. They gritted their teeth and struggled to move some distance away. Behind their back, the four teenagers who were weaker than them physically couldn't hold on anymore. The pressure forcefully made them kneel to the ground with a loud thud.
Fatty fell on his butt first. Clifford's face directly hit the ground, causing his nose to bleed. Luna fell with her shoulders hitting the ground first. Andre, on the other hand, was strong enough that he managed to slow down his fall.
"This is the power of gravity. So those damned bastard has this kind of ability?" Caleb wiped the sweat on his tightly knit forehead and couldn't help but frown.
The power of pressure, if he wasn't wrong, might be a force field type or the ability to increase the gravity around a specific area.
Jin nodded in agreement. "This is more troublesome than I thought. If we, who are quite far away, could feel this way. Just how strong is the gravity near the guardians? 10x stronger? Fortunately, we chose to wait and not attack rashly or we would suffer the same fate as before. These damned golems might not be fast, but they could restrain our mobility with such pressure. It's more problematic than speed-type from before."
Fushigiro helped the four teenagers and brought them to their place. "You made a good decision."
"He looks unaffected. For real, who is stronger than you guys?" Caleb looked at his captain and Jin with doubt.
After all, Tamasai, who was literally right in front of the guardians could still move just fine. No, he fucking looks as if gravity doesn't affect him at all!
