Chapter 52: Poe Cup V

Chapter 52: Poe Cup VLuke's fury increased when he saw the state Enid was in. Her red robe had several cuts where blood was oozing out of her skin.

Luckily, the wounds did not appear to be deep and serious. The white mask was no longer on Enid's face. Her expression looked as if her mother had died. She looked like she had cried a lot.

"Enid, are you okay?" shouted Luke, who wanted to crush these bastards, but if he made a move, Enid's life would be in danger.

"Luke..." said Enid. Her eyes were puffy and red. Her lips quivered as she spoke her boyfriend's name.

'Why is she so sad?' thought Luke, not understanding Enid's state.

Luke had sent a telepathic message to Enid when he saw the hooded people in the crypt of Crackstone. Telling her not to set foot on the island, but it was too late. Then his girlfriend stopped communicating with him through his mind. This could mean she received a major trauma or something similar.

"I'm sorry... Sabrina died protecting me," said Enid in a hoarse tone, and tears were again coming out of her eyes.

'Sabrina died...?' thought Luke with a raised eyebrow.

"A memorable sacrifice," said the hooded person in an amused tone. Enid looked at her furiously, but she could not move because of the ropes that bound her whole body. Not even with her superior physical strength could she break them.

The rope was not made of a common material. Otherwise, she would have broken them with her multicolored claws.

"Finish him," ordered the same person.

The werewolf began to move cautiously towards Luke in the same way as the faceless one. They didn't know if this guy would stop attacking just because they had a hostage.

As for Amaranth, she kept watching Luke. She had no plans to attack him. She wanted to see if The cared about people or not.

When the werewolf swung at him, he dodged it with his observation haki. He didn't need to use telekinetic waves. The werewolf's speed was very slow compared to what he had at first.

"No, no, no... You're not understanding your position. You can't attack or defend, of course, if you want your girlfriend to be safe," said the hooded person while putting his hand on Enid's shoulder.

Luke could see how, from the hooded person's hand, fire came out and burned the area of Enid's man, who screamed in pain.

"You bastard, stop!" shouted Luke in fury. In his fury, he couldn't dodge a kick from the werewolf that hit him in the stomach and sent him flying into a tree.

"That damn werewolf," Luke growled in pain. Never in his life had he been in such a deplorable state. However, he didn't care; he had to save Enid.

How would he save her? She was about ten meters away, and the hooded person would most likely have a way to stop his telekinetic waves. Like an artifact or some other method.

Immobilization or creating invisible objects with his telekinesis would not do.

Besides, the moment he did, he would be attacked by the werewolf. Luckily, his strength has decreased a lot since he crushed it with the tree.

'That's the trees!' thought Luke, closing his eyes and concentrating.

With his extrasensory ability, he began to see everything he couldn't see with his eyes. Deeper. Under the ground.

"It looks like this bastard has already accepted his fate," said the werewolf with an evil grin. He had to get revenge on the bastard who left him in this deplorable state.

"Never mind my life, Luke! Don't let them kill you!" cried Enid with tears in her eyes. The goal of these people was to kill everyone. It would be the same whether they killed her now or later when they were done with Luke.

As the werewolf was about to deliver a killing blow to Luke, the earth began to shake. Finally, the ground cracked as a large number of tree roots emerged from the earth with impressive ferocity, like the tentacles of some creature.

The werewolf did not expect an attack of dozens of roots at high speed that pierced his entire body. He screamed in pain and writhed but could do nothing.

"Damn you! I told you to stay still!" shouted the hooded person, ready to murder Enid. However, under his feet, roots also came out and attacked him and defended Enid.

'How did they get here!?' thought the hooded person in surprise, and he watched the dozens of roots attack him.

Using his fire skills, he managed to fend off the killer roots, but received a few cuts on his cloak and no longer possessed a prisoner.

'This is dangerous already! He wasn't supposed to be this powerful,' thought the faceless one, seeing more and more roots coming out of the ground. It seemed as if the forest itself was coming to life and attacking them.

The roots were as thick as muscular arms and as twisted as snakes. They moved at a rapid speed and with great agility.

'It gets stronger in battle. His talent is monstrous,' thought Edgar, looking at Luke with pride. He managed to save his girlfriend and turn the situation around when it was four versus one.

The faceless one was engulfed by a root and felt like he would be squeezed like a fruit. Luckily, he already had a teleporter in his hand. He activated it without wasting a second and disappeared from the place.

"Whoa, surprises me more and more! That makes me want it more," said Amaranth, dodging killer roots. Her agility was superior to that of her werewolf companion.

'However, this is getting dangerous,' thought Amaranth, seeing more and more roots that wanted to tear her apart. She realized that Luke's goal was to mercilessly murder them. Amaranth pulled out a faceless-like teleporter from one of her pockets and activated it. She disappeared in a second. The place where she was before was bombarded by roots, but no one was there anymore. seaʀᴄh thё NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Tsch damn rats," Luke cursed, focusing all his attention on the one remaining hooded man he wanted to murder the most since he dared to hurt Enid and threaten him.

'Why did it all end this way!!? He shouldn't be so powerful,' the hooded man thought furiously as he glared at Luke with hatred. He watched as his companions left the place.

His condition was not good either. He was now the sole target of the roots. Although his fire could burn them easily, it would be difficult to burn them all to ashes.

'At least, I'll kill your girlfriend!' thought the hooded man looking towards Enid. He realized that Luke cared about this girl. He could cause him great pain before he left.

"DIE!" the hooded man shouted. From his eyes, he shot out a bolt of fire that pulverized all the roots in its path and shot toward Enid.

'A ray of fire?' thought Luke in surprise as he looked at Enid. His expression turned ugly. He was controlling too many roots. He wouldn't be able to move Enid with his telekinesis in time, as she was bound and her mobility was reduced.

Luke desperately watched as the fire ray moved closer to Enid. Just at that moment, a creature running on all fours jumped out at the last moment, saving Enid from being pulverized.

The ground where the fire ray passed through was completely black, with some flames

burning.

'Tsch, she narrowly escaped,' thought the hooded person with fury. Now he had to leave this place; his mission had failed. He never thought that what would be a slaughter of outcasts

with weak ideals would end this way.

"You fucking bitch! Will you go now!?" shouted Luke angrily, watching as the hooded woman reached into her pocket for a teleporter. With the ray of fire, he knew it was Sabrina

Spellman's bitch.

Using all his concentration on a single root, he attacked Sabrina. The speed of the root was much greater than before. First, Luke only decided to control that one root, and because of his

fury.

The root pierced Sabrina's eye, but before it could pierce her brain, the girl disappeared from

the spot.

"Shit!" cursed Luke, stomping the ground in fury. A bad choice. He felt great pain in all his

bones for doing that.

...

"SHIT! SHIT! SHIT!" shouted Sabrina angrily as she pounded the ground with her delicate fists. She felt great pain and burning in her left eye, or rather, where her left eye used to be. Now it has already been destroyed by the root.

"Calm down, Sabrina," said the faceless one, already without the hood. His face had no

mouth, nose, or anything. Still, when he spoke, he could be heard, and it seemed as if his

closed mouth modulated.

"Shut up! Why didn't you help Sid kill that bastard?" asked Sabrina, glaring with her one eye

at the faceless one.

"We tried. At first, my ability countered him. Until he lifted a tree hundreds of kilograms and we couldn't do anything anymore... His power is already at an at an advanced level. Your information was wrong," said the faceless one, justifying himself.

Sabrina just clicked her tongue and said nothing more. This was her mistake. Her plan would have been perfect if Luke's strength was as she had thought, but it wasn't.

"And you, why didn't you help Sid? If you had hit the bastard Poe next to Sid, he wouldn't

have been able to get up," Sabrina asked, looking at Amaranth. Her tone wasn't as angry when she was talking to the half-breed.

"I thought Sid was more than enough to finish him off with one blow, but he was useless and ended up dying there," replied Amaranth, lifting her shoulders nonchalantly. "Watch your words, half-breed!" shouted the faceless one. Sid was his friend, and he had

died.

"Half-breed this, half-breed that. Shut your mouth if you don't want me to open your mouth and rip out your tongue. Do the faceless ones have tongues?" asked Amaranth with a chilling

smile.

"Enough, both of you. It's time to go back to the Academy of Dark Arts," said Sabrina,

interrupting the fight.

'Father will be angry...' thought Sabrina resignedly.
