While Chaotic Luck was doing his best to hold Immortal in place, Shin and the rest of the group were already engaging in a battle with the mbers of the Silent Night and the two apostles of Immortal.
Bang! Bang!
Spells, arrows, and magic bullets were flashing in different places within the forest as the two sides exchanged blows against each other.
They were only asuring the strengths of their opponents while trying to regroup with their respective teammates.
But at the sa ti, Shin and the rest were not going to let the opposing side easily reorganize themselves after having the initiative in this battle.
They were not going to waste the advantages that they had gained after successfully separating their opponents from their previous ambush.
They already isolated Immortal, so they didn't need to concern themselves about that cunning lich for the ti being. And without Immortal's strategic assistance, Shin and the others would have had an easier ti with their respective battles.
First, the mages of the group, Charlotte, Ember, and Ravier, would try to suppress the other mbers of the group by bombarding the other side with their powerful spells. Their main job was to prevent the mbers of Silent Night from joining together.
At the sa ti, Ara and Alucard would put more pressure on those isolated mbers of their opponents. Their snipping ability was really displayed at this ti.
In the anti, the top assaulters of their group would force a one-on-one battle against the key figures of the opposing side.
Arthur said that the Silent Night beca a little weaker because so of their mbers left them after they joined the Demonic Churches, but it didn't an that they could no longer hold their ground against the top Adventurer Teams of the ga.
Most of their main force was still in their group.
The Demon God Justin was still around. And even if he lost to Shin and also had his weapons, equipnt, skills, and special class robbed from him, he still managed to find a new power to replace them.
He lost his previous demonic arm, but it was replaced by a more powerful one that he got from a powerful Demon King.
As if Shin and the others were mocking him, the person who received all of his previous possession was currently present in his place and fighting against them.
"Bastard!" Justin couldn't help but cursed out loud when he spotted Owen fighting one of his mbers using his equipnt, especially his skills.
The application might be different, but those sets of skills were definitely the ones that he was using before.
Swoosh!
He kicked the ground and charged at Owen at an extre speed that couldn't be easily seen by the naked eye.
With such an explosive burst of speed, Owen was slightly taken aback by Justin's sudden appearance. Especially when he was already fighting against one of the Silent Night mbers.
"Die!" he was just slapped in the face, so Justin had no plan on holding back with this current attack. He imdiately used one of his most powerful skills.
The pressure that his body was emitting locked on Owen, making the latter tense up and unable to respond properly. It was due to that pressure that Owen failed to react in ti as it was seemingly suppressing his senses.
At the sa ti, Justin held his halberd with both of his hands and infused it with demonic powers before swinging it with all his might.
Roar!
An illusionary figure of a demon suddenly manifested behind Justin as he swung his halberd at Owen, mimicking his actions.
'Apostle of the Underworld Skill (Tier 2): Cleaving the World in Halves'
Owen could feel the pressure coming from that attack beco much heavier, making him unable to withstand it. He couldn't even use a defensive skill to protect himself.
At the sa ti, the Demonic Berserker that he was fighting earlier jumped away from him to avoid getting caught by such a terrifying skill.
But when Owen felt that he was already at the end of his ropes, he suddenly heard a majestic roar of a dragon, freeing him from his immobilized state.
Roar!
At the sa ti, he also saw a flash of golden light that suddenly appeared beside him and faced the descending halberd head-on.
'Dragon Knight Skill (Tier 2): Guardian of the Sanctuary'
Boom!
Then Owen heard the sneering voice of the person standing beside him. "Hey! How can you call yourself our shield if you can't even protect yourself with this? And what happens with your Super Sensitivity Talent? Did your throw it away or sothing?"
"I think you need more training when we are done here," added the person.
Owen couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly as he looked at Arthur's back. "I'm sorry about that, I will make sure that it will not happen again in the future."
"Isn't it obvious?" scoffed Arthur before tilting his head towards the direction where the Demonic Berserker was heading. "Leave this loser to and go chase after that guy."
"Roger that!" responded Owen and quickly activating his specialized Charge Skill to increase his speed.
Justin wanted to chase after Owen and rip the knight in shreds but he knew that it was pretty much impossible given that Arthur was currently standing right in front of him.
He jumped away from his current position as Arthur pushed his halberd to the side while also throwing a forward thrust at the sa ti.
Ta-ta!
"Siegfried!" said Justin with a hoarse voice as he stared at Arthur with a sharp glare.
Arthur smirked when he saw the expression that Justin was making. He would be lying if he said that he was not satisfied seeing this bastard making such an expression.
"Yeah, it's , Loser. Oh! And how does it feel? That humiliation, I an," said Arthur mockingly, trying to provoke Justin even further.
Justin didn't imdiately reply and just continued to glare at Arthur sharply. If looks could deal damage, then he might be dealing more than a hundred thousand critical strikes right now.
Wearing his mocking smile, Arthur lightly tapped his spear on his shoulder and continued. "Actually, there is another thing that I want to know more about. Have you finally woken up from your delusions?"
Snapped!
Arthur knew that he was rubbing salt in Justin's wounds when he said those words. He could even hear the imaginary snapping sound inside the latter's head.
Bang!
Justin didn't say anything and directly charged Arthur ferociously. He looked like a crazy demon with the current expression that he was making.
Bang!
Arthur blocked the heavy strike with his shield and laughed mockingly. "Hahaha! You really lose it this ti, Justin! Your title perfectly fits you now – Humiliated Demon!"
"Where is that bastard right now? I'll rip him into shreds!" said Justin angrily.
Arthur chuckled at those words and casually replied. "Do you honestly want to look for soone when you should be worrying about yourself?
"Let tell you. You are not even worthy to face with that current state of yours, much less fighting that guy. We are standing at a much higher summit right now," he added as the carefree look on his face was suddenly replaced by full of seriousness.
'Tsk! This is rather disappointing, he really lost it. I can't benefit from this fight if this continues.' He then pushed Justin away from him with a powerful swing of his shield before standing up straight. "Alright, I'm done fooling around now, so gather yourself together and show what you really are capable of."
'Shin grew incredibly stronger after his battle with Diablo. He didn't say it but we can feel it from the air surrounding him, I can't afford to slack off and be left behind,' he thought to himself.
He then raised his spear and pointed it to Justin and continued. "Don't disappoint this ti."
Justin suddenly felt sothing different from Arthur as he saw those actions. He didn't know what it was but he could feel that the latter genuinely took this battle seriously.
He closed his eyes and gathered his thoughts, trying to calm himself down. He really hated Shin to the core and wanted to crush that guy which was why he continued to lose his cool whenever he was reminded of their previous match.
From the words that Arthur had said, Justin could feel that this guy wanted him to take this battle seriously. He still didn't know the reason behind it, but he felt that he needed to do it.
Then Justin exhaled deeply, seemingly releasing all of the frustrations that he had earlier alongside the air coming out from his mouth.
And when he reopened his eyes once again, clarity could be seen on his face, clearly signifying that he was completely different compared to earlier.
Seeing that change, Arthur nodded his head in satisfaction and said smilingly. "That's right! That's more like it!"
"Now, let's try and see if you are still worthy to hold your position in the Godlike Ranking List," he added as he took his battle stance.
This ti, the mischievous and easygoing air that he usually had was completely replaced by full seriousness.
The air surrounding Arthur also change as Justin could see an illusionary figure of a majestic dragon manifested behind him.
Justin could also feel the suffocating pressure and air of authority that the dragon had as it cast its gaze at him.
It was at this mont that he realized the Dragon God Siegfried in front of him was completely different from the one that everyone knew.
