Cain did not wait for a second or explain his ruthless behavior to the duo as he stored the space rings of Carl and Jortar before picking Orin and putting the won on his back.
"Where?"
Orin was a little taken aback by the sudden bloodshed. Still, as soone who took the Assassination Military Specialization, she could focus her mind in a second.
"Six o'clock. Nine thousand ters!"
Cain's Blood Lightning burst with power as he flashed in that direction. Antony did not remain behind, using his Light Armor to follow the duo.

"¡BOOM!" "¡BOOM!" "¡BOOM!"
Elental explosions and shock waves echoed across the forest as nine young n with university marks fought against a group of six soldiers. Two long swords clashed repeatedly in the center of the battlefield, one bathed in explosive flas and the other in cold energy.
Amos and William fought with all they had, using every ounce of energy and strength in their bodies to finish the other. There was no need to hide the killing intent in their hearts since things had escalated beyond the point they could achieve a peaceful outco.
Although the battle between Amos and William was the mightiest, the ones around them were just as spectacular, especially one of two young n fighting with golden and red fire.
Levi used all his power to face Josef, the second-strongest student from Hellblazer University. Neither could overco the other, and just like Amos and William, their battle reached an impasse. The problem for the soldiers was that while they did not fall behind in terms of average individual power, the scions had the nurical advantage. The wounds on the soldiers keep growing, and it will only be a matter of ti before they would crumble.
"Ahhh!"
William's eyes narrowed when he heard that scream and saw that one of the soldiers was losing a hand and pulling back to not lose his life as well. "Bastard! You will pay dearly for this cri once we leave the dinsion!"
"What are you talking about? All of you perished under the hands of the Sword Monsters. That is what we saw and what everybody in the empire will believe."
Amos mocked William as he wielded his sword with more and more strength, unleashing powerful blasts of flas with each impact.
The young man from the Hellblazer Family knew very well what would happen if the Imperial Lightning Fort learned about his ambush of soldiers, which is why he would not leave anyone alive. "You should have handed over that boy. Maybe then you could have kept your life."
"Hmph, if I were to hand over my comrades just because so piece of shit says so, then I will be no better than the pigs of the Hellblazer Family."
William's eyes glowed with silver light for a second as he uttered those words. He was the kind of man that would follow his heart and would rather die with his head high than live on his knees.
Amos' face twisted with fury when he heard how William dared to refer to mbers of the Hellblazer Family as pigs. "You lowly soldier. How dare you speak of the great Hellblazer Family like that. I will burn your filthy tongue!"
Amos' reaction might seem a little over the top for soone so calm as him, but he faced a powerful indoctrination since birth, making the Hellblazer Family's honor sothing no one could challenge.
William's sword pierced forward, but Amos pushed forward instead of moving back, allowing the blade to penetrate his shoulder and granting him the chance to strike his enemy in the chest.
William clenched his teeth as he redirected as much of his Astral Wave as he could into his chest before Amos' sword clashed with it, leaving a deep cut and triggering an explosion that sent him flying away. "¡BOOM!"
The rest of the soldiers noticed that, but they could barely keep the students at bay, much less render soone else assistance, so there was nothing they could do to help William.
Amos showed a fierce smile as he saw William clash against a large tree with a deep wound on the chest. That last attack was risky but allowed him to land a decisive blow, and now it was ti to end the battle. Although he could no longer use his right arm due to the hole in his shoulder and the ice energy freezing his muscles, his mastery over the sword was high enough to wield it with his left arm.
"Die."
Amos flashed forward, ready to give William the final blow, taking advantage of this one being too weak to fight back.
"¡Boom!"
However, just as he was midway, a shock wave echoed across the forest, and Amos' eyes widened as his instincts began to scream danger.
The scion of the Hellblazer Family's instincts and battle awareness was much better than those of Jortar, and he was able to twist his body and put his sword in the path of the machete aiming at his neck.
"¡BOOM!"
A massive blast of fire and lightning was triggered by the clash of the machete and sword, and it was Amos' ti to be sent flying away since the power behind the machete was too much for him to handle with that feeble defense. Cain's figure beca visible the next second, and the red force field overflowed the battlefield the next second, pressuring all the students' minds. His eyes grew sharp as he analyzed the battlefield and the state of the soldiers and students.
"Orin, go guard William. Antony, help the Lumir and the others."
Antony and Orin reached the battlefield the next second, and the duo nodded toward Cain before flashing to their respective targets.
Cain was enough to make things hard for the students, but now that Antony and Orin were also present, their nurical advantage was almost gone. Amos was able to rise from the ground very fast, and rage appeared in his heart as he saw Cain and the other two reaching the battlefield just as he was ready to exterminate all the soldiers. That feeling grew stronger when he noticed how Cain signaled for Orin and Antony to help the other as if he was not a threat.
However, Amos did not allow that emotion to get the best of him, and he took a deep breath and cald his heart.
Cain noticed the change in Amos, and the sense of danger he felt from the scion grew. Those who lost themselves in their rage were easy to overco, and those who managed to remain calm in a precarious situation were the truly dangerous ones.
"What happened with Jortar and Carl?"
Amos had sent the duo after Orin after wounding the girl, and they should have been more than powerful enough to handle her. Yet, Orin appeared with Cain, so the outco of those two could not have been good.
"The sa thing that will happen to you."
Cain's voice was cold as the Blood Lightning burst with power, and he calmly walked forward. "Hmph, you are underestimating !"
Powerful flas covered Amos' body, burning the cold energy that froze the muscles on his right shoulder, allowing him to hold his sword with both hands.
"I estimate you just fine."
Cain's voice had not faded when he flashed toward Amos and began hacking with his machete.
Amos was able to follow those attacks with his eyes as he had regained a lot of his previous strength, but Cain's swordplay beastly surpassed him. That, plus the wounds on his body, pushed him into a defensive stance he could not escape.
The situation around the battlefield took a large turn since Antony's power helped the soldiers surpass the students by a slight margin.
Levi relaxed now that the rest of the soldiers were fine and could focus on Josef, slowly pushing back this one with his golden flas. Amos saw that, but there was nothing he could do. He could barely move as Cain kept him pinned into a specific part of the battlefield.
After a few minutes, wounds started to appear on the students as Antony's attacks were too fast and unpredictable for them, and even Josef was beginning to lose ground against Levi.
"Pull back!"
Amos issued that order, wanting to leave this battlefield before they suffered wounds that could diminish their battle power. He was ready to use all his power to push Cain away since he believed this one would cling to him, but things did not go that way.
As soon as Amos attempted to escape, Cain pulled back, leaving him alone. Confusion briefly filled the scion's mind, but then he understood Cain's goal.
"Look out!"
Josef heard Amos' voice, but he could not lose focus as Levi attacked with a nearly suicidal might once he attempted to move away, not allowing his mind to concentrate on anything else.
That was a grave mistake since Josef only perceived the machete cutting his neck when it was too late.
