...
Saint Heaven Kingdom.
In the outskirts where the Corrupted Cult was building their territory.
There were a pair of players sitting across from each other with a chess ga laid between them.
One of them was the mysterious person who was currently leading the operation of the Corrupted Cult in this kingdom while the other person was a familiar face for the Empyrean Talons, the Greed Devil of the Pandemonium Troupe, Beelzebub.
Beelzebub moved a chess piece, making his move while saying. "Pogo, the Killer Clown, and one of the founding mbers of the Blood Carnival."
"He is one of the most notorious figures within the virtual world. They managed to groom their organization into one of the Powerhouses, so their founding mbers hide in the dark and let their subordinates run the organization."
"Who would have thought that he is going to show himself again after Khing returned to the gaming world."
"If this battle beca known to the public, I am pretty sure that those experts who choose to play silently in the dark will start to make their coback."
The other person quickly made his countermove and replied. "That is our plan, to force those guys to reappear on the stage and make the board larger."
Beelzebub suddenly laughed after hearing that. "Hah! Are you sure that you are not biting more than you can chew?"
"I don't know if your Corrupted Cult can handle the aftermath of luring them out. After all, not only the old 'villains' are going to show themselves after this, there are also those guys who claim to be the people of justice."
The man opposite him smirked in return and answered. "It is true that our Corrupted Cult is a little inferior compared to the Demonic Churches when it cos to foundation and power. But it doesn't an that we are weaker."
"Instead of worrying about us, how about you think about your organization instead? Once those old experts showed themselves, the influence that the Pandemonium Descendants have will significantly decrease."
"At that ti, I wonder if the ambition that you guys have will still persist after being suppressed by them."
Beelzebub chuckles and nodded his head. "We, the Pandemonium Troupe, are indeed underdeveloped compared to those hidden experts. But we still have the backing of our elders, and they are not inferior to those people."
"They promise that they are going to help if those Master-Class players of the old ranking list make their appearance."
"Our main task is to deal with the players who are in the current ranking list and dominate the leaderboard," he added while giving the other side a mocking look.
Seeing that the other person was not willing to respond, Beelzebub clicked his tongue and continued. "Let's go back to business. We don't care whether you are going to deal with the Empyrean Talons and interrupt their quest-…"
"…-but to get in our way, or else, you will not like the consequence," he added with a threatening tone.
The other person slightly raised his head and looked Beelzebub straight in the eye. "Trying to threaten ? I am giving you a face since earlier since Senior Brother ask to, but it looks like I've been too good to you, huh?"
Boom!
Then a powerful aura suddenly exploded from his body.
Seeing that, Beelzebub smirked and also released his own aura and fought back.
They glared at each other as they tried to suppress the opposing side with their respective auras.
A fight was about to break out.
**********
Going back to the place where the portal leading to the Frozen Kingdom was located, an intense fight already broke out.
The mbers of Empyrean Talon, S.Tigris' party, and Lawless' group couldn't help but look at the sight in front of them in awe.
They already cleared the area and most of the Corrupted Cult mbers already retreated. From the looked of it, those guys already achieved their goal, so there was no point in staying here any longer.
The group wanted to help David but they discovered that they didn't have the ability to do so. They would only be a burden to David if they insisted on getting involved.
The intensity of the battle seed to be a little inferior compared to most of the sensational battles that they saw, but the abilities that those two were showing were high-leveled.
David's opponent already revealed his appearance as he took off the cloak he was wearing earlier.
They still couldn't see his basic information since he was wearing a clown mask that was preventing the others from spying on him.
At first look, that person looked like a warrior due to the set of armor that he had. But the strange thing was the fact that he was moving at an insane speed despite wearing that kind of armor.
Morgan and Hayden even thought that his speed was on par with Faker's. Even his thod of fighting was also similar.
Those chained sickles seed to be alive on his hands. He was controlling them very well and even able to change their trajectory from ti to ti, chasing after their targets like a vicious snake.
With that kind of speed, precise control, and complex attack patterns, anyone who would be facing him would definitely have a hard ti.
But David was different. Not only he was able to dodge the sickles with ease, even the chains attached to the bottom of their hands couldn't catch him.
No matter how tricky and confusing their movents were, David would always be able to escape their encirclent without a problem.
If the others, who were watching this fight, were already confused about the class that the other person had, then they would have a hard ti figuring out the class David belonged to.
They already found that his weapon, an umbrella, was strange. It made them wrack their brains, trying to figure it out. Even if he belonged to hidden and special classes, it would always have a class among the basic ones as its base.
But after watching this battle, they already had an idea of what his class belonged to.
He was so sort of a Shaman and Spirit Summoner.
David was mostly holding his umbrella behind him as he was dodging the attacks of his opponent. He was also using it to fend off the attacks he couldn't avoid.
There were also so instances where he was opening that umbrella and use it to block the flying daggers that the opposing side was throwing at him from ti to ti.
At tis, that umbrella was also acting as a scepter when casting so spells. It was also being used to write a series of runes in the air when he was casting a more complicated spell.
Pogo, the Killer Clown, his opponent, figured it out and used everything he had to restrain that umbrella and prevent David from using it.
But when he successfully captured that annoying umbrella with his chains, David casually took out so talismans and threw them at Pogo.
Those talismans were similar to magic scrolls that the mages created, but the spells that they possessed were a little inferior compared to the latter.
At least that was the case when they were used individually. But the mont when they were used together, their power was close to what a magic scroll had and their utility was way better.
Pogo first ignored those talismans at first since they didn't have much threat to him. But he later realized how troubleso it was to deal with them.
David was able to cast a variety of skills with their help and even summon a different kind of power. One of them was the power of Ghost and Spirits while the other was the power of Natural Elents.
Moreover, those talismans were not consumable items, but they were generated from David's skill set.
By generating a different combination of talismans, David was able to cast a different kind of spell.
The more the battle progressed, the more disadvantageous it was for Pogo. The variety of spells that David could use was steadily growing in number the longer they fought.
Spirit and Ghost Summons alongside a variety of Elental Spells, the combination of these two gave Pogo a hard ti. And what was more insulting about it was the fact that David didn't even step out of the small circle that he created earlier.
But despite that being the case, no one could say that this was a one-sided fight since David also didn't land a clean hit at Pogo so far.
Pogo might be more proactive in this battle and continuously moving since the start of the battle, and it might look like he was being suppressed on the surface, but the truth was that this battle was still in a deadlock.
Swoosh!
Pogo suddenly stopped attacking and stood a few ters away from David, looking at the latter with a calm gaze.
He seed to ignore the fact that he was still surrounded by his opponents. But even if he stood in the open, none of the group dared to attack him straight away. Their instincts were warning them not to make a move.
Moreover, David also warned them in the party chat channel not to get involved right after Pogo stopped moving.
He wanted to test his current strength on a worthy opponent. He was away from playing gas for a long ti, so it was natural for him to know where he currently stood compared to the other top players who played in the sa generation as him.
This was the perfect ti to see if he was still worthy to stand on the sa footing as them.
'Now that the warm-up is over, I guess it is ti to take this seriously,' thought David as finally done familiarizing himself with the skillset that he currently had.
'It is rare to find soone who is worthy enough for to test my limits, I guess I can't afford to waste this chance,' he added while locking his gaze at Pogo who seed to figure out his thoughts.
The two remained standing for a few monts as the air within the vicinity seed to beco heavy.
From here on out, David was going to showcase the real ability he had.
