Chapter 1907. Time to Get Serious

The hurricane Four Winds used to assault Asmodeus was a skill from his pinnacle class. It was King of Fury's level 50 skill, Tornado Cross.

He could get a jump at Asmodeus because he, too, had learned mana concealment. Four Winds always had good martial arts talent. If not for his being bogged down by having to attend to guild affairs, his advancement in martial arts would not be slower than Leavemealone.

He learned the basics when he was training inside Everlasting Heavenly Legends' Space-time Chamber. During that time, Domon and Wong were also in the chamber aside from his master, Murong. Leavemealone started learning mana concealment at the time, so Four Winds took the chance to request the same training as well. His expertise was still far from Jack's level, but it was enough to get him close to Asmodeus before the devil sensed his presence.

Asmodeus stared at this newcomer. He recognized this orc's voice. This orc was the one who had used the mana-empowered voice to make the absurd announcement. Now, he was making a declaration that was no less ridiculous.

"Vanquish me? Hehe... Interesting thought, but idiotic at the same time," Asmodeus mocked. "Are there any more of you, outworlders? If there are, I will wait for them. I've grown tired of those fools, anyway."

Petunia and Aneid gritted their teeth. It was no secret who Asmodeuss was referring to. Their pride was hurt. Yet, the reality was clear. They were indeed not Asmodeus' match. If not for these outworlders' interference, perhaps they would have joined Balrd's fate.

Four Winds turned to Aneid and Petunia.

"Aneid, you are a healer, aren't you? We will be relying on you," He said. He had used Inspect on the two before addressing them. "We have no healer, so your support will be appreciated. Petunia, you stay back and keep Aneid safe. We will handle this devil."

Petunia fumed. It hurt her pride to get ordered like this, but she calmed herself down. Pride had always been their core belief, but they also understood its flaws. Pride let them stand tall throughout all difficulties. But unchecked, it could be the very thing that brought them down.

She didn't confirm Four Winds' command but didn't show any defying gesture as well. Four Winds took that as them agreeing.

"Handle me?" Asmodeus snickered. "Every time you open your mouth, your words get more and more silly."

Four winds ignored Asmodeus. He told his three comrades, "Arthur, you are with me on the front line. Blackhole, you are in charge of damage dealing, but watch where you place your spells. Don't hit us. Haon... You do whatever you like." ealone harrumphed. The flaming wings behind him spread. He charged forward.

"I guess he will be on the front line as well," Arthur remarked.

Leavemealone's speed also increased significantly. He disappeared from where he was and was already next to Asmodeus an instant later. He sent a spin kick, which struck Asmodeus' sheep head. When Asmodeus tried to hit him using his claw, Leavemealone was gone again. Asmodeus then sensed a strong mana from below him.

He looked down and saw the image of a rising dragon. The dragon was roaring as he felt a strong impact on his chin. The blow was strong enough to lift even his giant body.

While Asmodeus' heavy body was lifted into the air from the Surging Dragon Punch, Leavemealone used Infinite Lightning Punches. Countless fiery explosions occurred on Asmodeus' chest as Leavemealone's fists struck like a rapid machine gun. Leavemealone ended the punch with Supreme Fist's level 50 skill, Supreme Punch.

Supreme Punch was a skill that delivered a single punch. The skill was simple, but it had two advantages. The first was its fast cooldown, which was only one minute at max level. The second was its damaging power, especially if the user landed a clean hit.

That was what happened right now. Leavemealone's fiery fist struck head-on on Asmodeus' belly. Damage number appeared. The damage was not higher than the one caused by Infinite Lightning Punches. However, this was just the start. If Supreme Punch landed, it had a follow-up effect.

The spot where Leavemealone punched started glowing. The glow intensified until it exploded. The explosion didn't happen just once but multiple times. Each explosion sent Asmodeus further back. Damage numbers continued to pop up from this explosion. Since this explosion occurred from the inside, Asmodeus' defense and lightning suit were useless against them. He suffered the full damage.

Asmodeus only stopped getting pushed back after the chained explosions ended. His three heads growled. He felt that punch. He felt like his inside was turning, which caused his reaction to slow.

Four Winds and Arthur arrived before him then. Both of them used their pinnacle classes' offensive skills.

Four Winds used Furious Cleave, King of Fury's level 80 skill. The skill dealt 2500% physical damage at max level. It also caused Bleed and had a high chance of wounding. The hit target got his defense reduced by 20% for the remainder of the battle. The defense reduction was not stackable. If Four Winds hit the same target again with this skill, the defense reduction would remain at 20%.

Arthur used Primordial Strike, Primordial Punisher's first skill. This skill dealt 1000% physical damage under normal conditions. But if the target had hit Arthur within the last hour, which Asmodeus did with his Perpetual Lightning Judgement, the damage increased to 1500%. Additionally, this skill had a high chance of causing Dizzy, Disoriented, and Cursed.

If Primordial Strike slew the target, which it currently did not, the slain target became an avenging spirit that followed Arthur around. This avenging spirit fought Arthur's enemies until it was killed or the combat ended.

The avenging orbs around Arthur were also different. They were larger and had a dark red shade. This was because of Primordial Punisher's passive ability. All the avenging orbs were now punishing orbs. Punishing orbs had double the effects of the avenging orbs. It also lasted longer at ten minutes, and a maximum of twenty orbs could be generated.

Asmodeus gritted his teeth as all these skills landed on him. These skills were unlike any those Council of Hybris' members threw at him. These skills had the capability to rattle him.

His bird claws and dragon claws gripped the ground hard. The ground cracked from the force. His three pairs of eyes shone with an ominous glow.

It was time to get serious.
