Chapter 122: Shared Opponents

When Rehabab came out of the barrier, he suddenly appeared in Naomi's vision and though the woman wasn't too surprised by this and was ready to react, the strength she felt pouring from him and his nature, shocked and stiffened her for a few seconds, and this was all the time Rehabab needed to close the distance and put her in a state where she had absolutely no choice but to clash with him.

After the shock, Naomi's eyes quickly cleared and while she ground her legs into the ground, sliding across it as she looked to break her momentum, a long war hammer appeared in her already swinging hand.

With her brash approach and delayed reaction, Naomi despite doing her best was at the moment in a position where her hammer which carried a weak momentum was doomed to lose a clash with Rehabab's sword, a loss that would end up with her suffering an injury this early in the battle.

With a distaste, Naomi set her hammer rushing towards Rehabab, but then to her shock once more, the scenario she had predicted did not occur as rather than the demon's weapon clashing with hers, he instead used his left to tank and effectively rebuff her and then now in front of her defenseless, his tall hot figure looking down at her, as his sword descended to split her in two.

"I'm going to die," Naomi told herself, as the aura of death enveloped her, but then she heard a shout.

"Retreat"

Not even doubting those words for a second, Naomi abandoned whatever flimsy defence she had wanted to put up and immediately pushed her body to move backwards, watching as three potent bright yellow barriers appeared between her and the descending sword. seaʀᴄh thё Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Though the heavy sword sliced through the barriers, several more appeared, effectively slowing it down and leaving Naomi to be hit by the powerful slicing shockwave of the sword as it hit the ground, her body out of its path.

A vertical line of blood spurted out of Naomi from just this shockwave travelling to her and when she noticed that it was the left side of her chest that was hit, she could not help but marvel at her opponent's fighting power and desire for her death.

While pain from the injury on her chest ran through, from the corner of her eyes, Naomi spotted a grey tall being speeding past her, his destination being where the voice that had told her to retreat originated from.

"No, Solara" Naomi thought worriedly, the threat of the demon before her forcing her to keep her attention on him.

Running her mana through her body, Naomi was glad to know that with all the barriers that had been built in front of her, the cut on her chest had only been shallow but that didn't stop her face from going grim as the steaming demon took a heavy step forward and shot towards her.

Unlike the first time when she had been caught in a bad position and fumbled, now Naomi's power surged through her, the brown nature of her hammer immediately changing to a bright golden and releasing a faint glow as she kicked her feet and sped towards Rehabab.

"He should be an infernal demon in the fourth order, but what about the other one, we need to regroup and strategize.

If I can just get back to Solara, she should be able to force our enemies back and give us breathing space."

Naomi had just begun thinking of how she could escape Rehabab after their next clash when there was a powerful explosion of power behind her and Rehabab who had been rushing to attack her immediately put a break to his run and sped towards a grey figure that was shooting through the air, going back the way he came.

"Well, I guess Kail took care of him."

Naomi looked to the infernal demon wanting to attack his open back but then Kail's voice hit her like he was right next to her.

"Don't, he's baiting you, come back."

"I know," Naomi said with a snort.

** A Minute earlier***

Watching Rehabab move to quickly end Naomi, Blake had been surprised by Solara's actions and then quickly shot towards her, wanting to end her while she was bust protecting Naomi.

Within seconds, just as Solara was taking her mind off Rehabab and focusing on her, Blake who already had his blood sword out, swung it to take off her head and as he did this, he waved his left hand and created a blood shield to block the path of a red-haired boy who was approaching from the side.

Though he used just his right hand, holding the weapon tight, Blake slashed at the white-haired beauty.

With a bit of panic on her face, Solara had multiple yellow barriers appear in the air standing between Blake's sword and her neck, fear appearing on her face as his blade with a bit of difficulty sliced through these barriers and sped for her neck.

Unfortunately for Blake, just as it seemed like he was going to take off Solara's head, the sound of something shattering sounded and a fist with blinding speed appeared at his side and smashed into him with a powerful impact.

With Blake unable to use inspect due to the fear of alerting the enemy of their strength, it had been all too easy for Blake to write down the strength of the red-haired boy with how young and goofy he had been, but now as the boy hit him with a raging strength before, a smile on his face, Blake regretted his action.

Letting go of his sword which shattered to pieces, Blake was sent shooting backwards, his big figure shooting through the air and blood flying out of his mouth.

"Broken ribs, shattered internal organs, ruptured lungs, burning heart"

As Blake moved through the air he tried to ignore the pain and figure out the amount of damage he had been inflicted with, but couldn't make out a thing, his mind a jumbled mess as everything about his body felt like a mess.

Without cushion Bake's flight trajectory took him slamming onto the ground, his eyes heavy and falling to the ground but then he saw the figure of Rehabab approaching from the side. Your journey starts at m_v le mpyr

Figuring that Rehabab was running towards him out of worry, Blake stamped his leg onto the ground in his next roll and went soaring into the air.

"Inspect" Blake thought and as he landed on the ground and slid across it, the force from the hit yet to be fully cancelled.

After some seconds Blake who had come to a stop looked at Rehabab who had slowed down and was staring at him in surprise and spoke.

"I've incapacitated Solara for some time, you deal with Naomi, I'll come help you when I've killed Kail."

Blake's words were calm and full of confidence reaching both Rehabab and the enemy team and then he shot off towards his target.
