A few days ago.
"August. If we are going to fight against Selena and Nathan, there will be a chance that I will be targeted. That's why I want your gno to co to my aid."
"But that ans I will have to handle Selena and one of her familiars on my own." August frowned.
Rudeus nodded. "Yes, but it can't be helped. If we want to win, we have to do this. I'll also boost your power whenever you need it. And as the heir of the Blacksmith Guild, you definitely have a way to do it, right?"
August sucked a cold breath. "Are you talking about Anti-Ena Material?"
"Yes. If you use it for your uniform, you can definitely win. Selena is talented in Ena manipulation, but that doesn't an she is strong enough to handle that kind of material. It will be costly because they are an extrely rare material. Still, for the Blacksmith Guild's heir…" Rudeus smirked.
August knew that getting this material should be easy. In fact, he could request his family to modify the uniform for him. And using this material would definitely allow him to gain an upper hand in the fight.
However, this felt so unfair.
No, he might be too naive. The world was unfair. The teachers and the academy had taught him that nothing was fair. If they had a background, they could utilize it, just not within the academy.
That was why, while he couldn't use the Blacksmith Guild to pressure his opponents, he could still ask them for clothing like this.
"Think about it, August. Which is more important? If we win, we'll be able to win it all. If we lose, we might end up falling together. Even your family might not look at you anymore.
"That's why we have to do everything we can to win. Of course, there is a limit so as to maintain our reputation.
"If we are able to do this, we can definitely crush them."
"But… isn't it enough to just win? I still believe we are the stronger ones, not them. Even if it's a hard fight, we can still win." August was hesitant.
"And that's why you're going to be a loser, no matter where you are. What matters is not the thod, but the result. Win first, talk later." Rudeus shook his head. "It's because you're so fixated on this that you're unable to best . And this ti, two more people are trying to get on top of you. Can you accept this?"
August bit his lips. In the end, he chose to follow Rudeus' arrangent.
"His clothes are made of materials that disperse Ena."
Nathan's expression turned solemn. This type of clothing was definitely a disadvantage for both him and Selena. His bullets wouldn't be able to pierce him, and Selena's power mostly consisted of Ena-type attacks. That was why this clothing would be a kind of having the most powerful armor against them.
They didn't know how much Ena they could disperse, but they might have to use another strategy.
Selena swept him once again, but August easily split it in two as he made his way toward Selena.
Risa created blood bats and isolated him inside the Blood Field.
But August simply cut the blood field down while Rudeus empowered him with Ena, causing a burst of Ena that blasted the blood bats around him.
Risa was coming straight at him with her claws. Since Ena wasn't useful, she had to use her nails to hit him.
Risa struck him several tis, but August parried every single attack and even stabbed her on the shoulder.
"Tsk." Risa clicked her tongue and leaped back, but this should be enough to buy Selena enough ti to get away.
To her surprise, Selena actually remained in her original position as if she were waiting for August to arrive.
"!!!" August couldn't help but wonder if she had any trick to do such a thing.
Nathan couldn't help but smile as if he realized what Selena wanted to do. While leaping into the air to avoid the cyclops, Nathan simply said, "Rudeus. You are wrong about one thing. Anti-Ena Material. Even I have heard sothing like this. No.
I expected August to have it.
"It will surely put us at a disadvantage, considering our fighting style. However, you are forgetting one thing.
"That's my girl over there."
What Nathan ant was not the fact Selena was his woman. It was how much Selena had improved under him. And he believed Selena was the best at getting stronger but also absorbing his way of thinking.
When August was about to reach her, Selena didn't move as if she was expecting sothing.
All of a sudden, he felt an incoming presence. It was fast, so August imdiately raised his sword, blocking sothing that he hadn't seen before.
The mont he turned his head around, the hit, which turned out to be a kick, landed on his sword. It was Yin Zhen.
"Kh! What is this power?" August gritted his teeth, not expecting this powerful kick. As a result, Yin Zhen knocked him far away from the rest.
"I'll leave him to you." Selena nodded as he passed Yin Zhen.
"Leave him to ." Yin Zhen smiled.
As expected, the golem that Yin Zhen had kept at bay erged behind him, attacking him from behind. August had also boosted the golem with his Ena, but a giant arm suddenly erged from Selena's back, grabbing the golem's stone head.
"!!!" The golem was startled because it was being dragged down.
But another arm appeared and grabbed the back of the cyclops' head as a huge skeleton erged from Selena's body.
"What is that?" Rudeus widened his eyes in shock.
The avatar slamd both the golem and the cyclops to the ground.
Bam!
With the two biggest bodies going down, the shock wave they produced created a small tremor. But that wasn't all.
Nathan had seen through her plan. Now that both of them were lying next to each other, Nathan rained these two downs with multiple explosive bullets.
"We are not aiming to just win. We are aiming for a complete victory." Nathan smirked as the explosive bullets landed on their bodies.
Boom!
