Chapter 69 - Sato Fights Alone

"Mars, does your team have any blademasters?" Sato asked him privately.

"Unfortunately, no. There were two before, but they had died in the fights before." Mars knew what Sato was thinking of. The passive of blademasters was Vital Point and it allowed for a 150% boost in physical damage whenever one of any five vitals was struck. If they had that class of players, it would probable to take him down togethed.

"Wait a minute," Sato remembered a player who plays Blademaster. "We do have someone that can help us with this fight. Hang on for a moment."

Leaving the fight in a hurry, Sato ran towards the team of players fighting 10 meters away. He called out to a certain individual. "Gray! I need your help!"

The instant Sato spoke, Gray's head peeked out from the fight. Without care for what's going on, he left his teammates, heading to Sato.

"What is it?" Gray asked caringly.

To the other players in the core team of GODs guild, they were all shocked to see DK Seven speak. All this time he only nodded and wouldn't even bother to reply to their questions. Yet, when the assassin asked for his help, he gladly left the group to go over.

"Mars and I require a blademaster to be the main damage dealer against Complexity. The guy is an ultra tank who doesn't take much damage from me and Mars," Sato explained the predicament. "We were thinking how naturally, blademasters have the passive skill Vital Point, and so they will be able to chunk the enemy more effectively over time."

"Okay. Let's go and kill Complexity." Gray left with Sato without hesitation. He didn't even say goodbye to his teammates that he battled with for over an hour.

Mars and Complexity were still fighting evenly, but it was Mars that was losing out gradually. He was running out of health potions and his healer was battling elsewhere.

"Hahaha! Looks like the number two player isn't much after all!" Complexity rubbed it in on Mars. "However, I think it is time to end this skirmish between me and you. Lacklustree!"

"Spatial Rift." Lacklustree who was hiding in the midst of his guild, Royal Empire, casted his unique skill behind Mars. In front of him was a massive tank, while behind him was a black hole that will end his life. There was no where to run.

"Twin Leaf Tornado!" Sato aimed it at Lacklustree's Location. This was the only active skill he was allowed to use right now, for the Treant Summon may signify that he had something to do with Elves.

The twin pronged attack striked downwards from the air. Unfortunately, the destruction that was meant to happen didn't come to fruition. Lacklustree had noticed it coming in and so he had cancelled his skill immediately and used Spatial Walk, teleporting him right beside Sato.

"There you are!" Lacklustree cynically said to Sato. Disobeying his leader's order of killing Mars, he left on his own agenda. He wanted to kill Sato instead. "Space Engulfment."

*Space Engulfment

*Transports player and opponent to an alternate dimension. Uses 20 mana every 10 seconds. The player is able to use Spatial Walk without mana. The cooldown of Spatial Walk is reduced by 80% (2 second cooldown now).

As Sato was transported away into the space realm, Gray worried slightly, before focusing on Complexity. "Take him down with me, let Sato take care of the mage."

"Okay." Mars believed Gray's words. If Sato were to really die against Lacklustree, there was nothing he could do. Afterall, the Space Engulfment skill had no way of interfering. It was the ultimate 1 versus 1 skill.

Within the spatial world, Sato looked around the place in amazement. The place wasn't actually completely dark. In fact, the millions of shimmering stars in the black blackground, make the whole place light up. He was stepping on a single flat plane of land, yet he looked like he was floating in outer space.

"Hahahaha! Welcome HappyBoy to my lair!" Lacklustree's voice echoed around Sato. The man was no where to be seen.

"I've been looking all over for you on the battlefield. At one point, I thought you had died already. But seeing that your points kept increasing, I knew you were still out there."

"Humph... Why do you want to kill me so badly?" Sato laughed lightly at what he had said.

"Why? Why?! Me not being able to kill you is simply too embarrassing! I have to redeem myself now! Seeing how you have activated your Unique Skill, you must've gone easy on the fight from before against me! What disrespect!"

"Now... Now! You must pay for that!" With that Lacklustree appeared behind Sato stealthily, before activating Death Hand. It was a Pugilist related Mage skill that could do significant damage over time if hit.

Before the tightened fist came into contact with Sato, the assassin had activated Blink, teleporting right behind the spatial mage and began to slash his back using his cresent blade. Just then, Lacklustree activated Spatial Walk, allowing him to disappear once again. The assassin struck air.

"Tch." Sato clicked his tongue in dissapointment. The 2 second cooldown on Spatial Rift was a tough predicament he was in. If he couldn't think of anything, he would most definitely die here.

While Sato's Blink Cooldown had yet to refresh, the Spatial Mage teleport behind again, using this same tactic. This time sato wasn't so lucky and tried to block most of the damage using his arms.

"-50,-50,-50,-50..." In total over the next 6 seconds, Sato lost 300 HP which was one third this health.

"Hahaha! Truly a useless assassin when in my space terrain. You are unable to hide anywhere now!" Lacklustree liked toying with his opponent's feelings. He would purposely savoured and take his time to kill his enemies, making him one of the most ruthless players in the world.

Although that was the case, Sato didn't panic and chose to keep a calm state of mind. Breathing in and out deeply, he focused his mindset. He closed his eyes slow, loosening his grip on his blades.
