"We are saved."
"The enemy is finished."
Different kinds of cheering comments start to come from the crowd, but from what Ariet saw, the other enemies he could see do not care about the one he just killed. "This is weird," he thought. Even experts would feel bad if one of them died or reacted for even a fraction of a second.
But they did not at all. They did not give any signal whatsoever. This is highly irregular from every point of view.
He takes a deep breath and targets one of the Gemini clones again and whispers.
"Sand Spear Tornado"
With Ariet speaking, a small sand dust formed and then turned into a seven-meter-sized sand tornada with a spear made up of sand inside of it and covered the enemy with ease. Seconds later, the Gemini clone is penetrated by numerous spears of all sizes and dies as it vanishes.
Ariet gulped and then he noticed something.
-
Fraus gives a cold breath and then laughs.
"This is my first time against a deep fire level enemy. They are strong and powerful, that is not hard to see."
Fraus watched every move of the unknown Deep Fire Level of Light Of Marven. He was surprised and excited even more.
This is something that he experienced for the first time. Just after showing itself, Deep Fire Level Being killed two Gemini clones in just ten seconds. If he wants
At that time, Ariet, who was busy assessing the situation, noticed something. In less than three seconds, he notices that almost all the enemies are in front of him. Giving all of their attention to themselves. Ariet looked at the seven enemies and more than twenty hands flying in the air.
Seconds later, they started attacking. Ariet gulped and then whispered two times.
"Sand Armor"
"Sand Tentacles"
With his whisper, sand manifests from nothing and engulfs Ariet. Then, seconds later, more than ten sand tentacles with pointy ends manifest from his back. Turning Ariet is a human sand hybrid.
"This is something I did not expect."
Ariet took a deep breath as Sand Tentacle started to fight with flying hands. Spirit Hands are essentially not connected to Frau's ability to summon clones again and again. If Spirit Hands are destroyed, Fraus needs to wait more than a minute to summon it again. which will cause him to spend star energy.
One minute may not seem like much time is needed. But one has to know that in a battle between Torch Level and Deep Fire Level Beings, ten seconds is more than enough time to decide a winner for real.
Fraus laughs and then smiles . The "Sand Tentacle" technique he uses is created for defensive reasons, not attack reasons. Because of that, the damage dealt to Spirit Hands is almost nothing, but the speed and reaction capability of tentacles are faster than Spirit Hands.
It would be hard to break it.
Fraus then commanded.
"Gemini Clones, use ranged attack, start using whips with Ghost Blade."
With the order of Fraus, Spirit Hands attacked. Twenty-five of the Spirit Hands attacked. Of only ten tentancles, two of them were able to hit the body of Ariet, which did not take much blade damage because of her Sand Armor ability.
The attacking power of these hands is too much, the same as peak or advanced torch-level
Ariet then murmurs.
"Sand Explosions"
With Ariet's whisper, some of the hands exploded. The sand itself creates a ball-shape and then explodes as it gets close to its target. The explosion is not powerful, but the number of sand balls is too many. In five seconds, two Gemini clones and more than five Spirit Hands were destroyed.
Fraus took a deep breath, watched and then smiled as he summoned all of them.
The battle only started for thirty seconds. The torch-level beings from Light of Marven did not have any time to attack or find problems with the Gemini Clones. They were busy handling out the corpses. Fraus, who was watching the battle from his mind, knew that in one to three minutes, the torch-level members of the Light of Marven would attack and help out Ariet.
Fraus knew that when his gemini clones and spirit hands encountered more than three hundred members and one Deep Fire Level Being to do the dirty work, Murdering the Deep Fire Level Being would be nigh-impossible, if the thing got out of hand. He would have his chance to escape from the battlefield. The only thing he needed to do was just put some members in front of himself and escape.
"This will not do."
"Spirit Hands, Gemini Clones, attack without care, kill that Deep Fire Being. I will keep summoning you."
With his order, the newly summoned Gemini Clones came to battle and then used their whips and blades to find a way to attack and kill Ariet.
"The number of their members reached more than eighty. Eight peak-level torch-levels sent to me without any care for their lives."
Ariet thought as he tried everything to block the whip attacks and counter-attack with his spear attack.
A simple but effective ability of Ariet is "Conjure Sand Spear", a spear manifested from the sand, then shot towards the enemy. Because the spear is made of sand manifested by starsign energy, it is as light as a feather until it reaches its target.
Every time Ariet conjures a sand-spear and targets a gemini clone, the target is sure to die. Gemini clones do not have speed, reaction time, and defensive ability to block attack and ability from Ariet.
Fraus notices this fact and takes a deep breath every time he sees it. The spear is strong and can not be blocked or stopped.
"I need more defensive active abilities for the future." Defensive active abilities like the ability of Sand Armor, an ability that can be used directly to increase defensiveness or create something that can be used for defence. Fraus understands that the battle may not end as he had hoped, but the fact that he is learning makes him happy and the effort worthwhile.
He needs to give his all attention to him. He will do that for fun. The collected gold from the corpses of Torch-Level Beings has already reached "500". The corpses of Torch Level Members have reached 100. "
