Isko did it on purpose.
Not because he was nervous, or misunderstood the orders.
He had enough of Link Grande’s high and mighty, domineering attitude.
He was even more fed up with Lanny Taylor’s meek compliance, catering to Link Grande in every way.
After all he was Isko Alex, possessing intermediate fifth rank qualification, and was the fifth in his grade.
Despite trying to woo her, Lanny Taylor remained aloof.
Except for when she needed him to do something, she never had much interaction with him.
Compared to how she treated Link Grande, the disparity irked Isko.
No matter who he faced or what happened, his opinions were always ignored.
Not once or twice, but every single time.
Yes, he admitted, he had ulterior motives.
But his intentions were never targeted at Lanny. He just wanted to prove himself, to earn some respect.
Besides, he was against forming a team with Link Grande from the start, vehemently against it.
His objections were dismissed by Lanny Taylor, who even asked him to follow Link Grande’s directions unconditionally.
That Bahmir Balves, the one who angered Isko the most, actually chose to “bow down.”
Not only did he willingly accept the team and commands, but along with Lutz Bailey, he convinced others as well.
With no other option, Isko resigned himself to the situation and accepted the team on the surface.
The days before the team met were bearable – out of sight, out of mind.
Just doing certain tasks according to the orders.
Seeing as these tasks helped drive the main and side quests forward, Isko endured it without much complaint.
However, after the team formed…
Why were all these girls flocking to Link Grande?
Especially Lanny Taylor.
She was a super genius with advance fifth rank qualifications, the top of her grade, and the dream girl of numerous members of the New Blood Mutual Aid Association!
Why didn’t she maintain her pride?
For the sake of the competition, for the faction mission, for some gambling agreement, she lowered her stance and catered to him?
Didn t he already have Jasmine Kidman clinging onto him?!
Isko did not understand.
Isko was burning with jealousy.
Isko did not want to be a lapdog anymore.
Isko was ready to give up.
Isko wanted his voice to be heard.
He snapped, his emotions running high and his rationality taking a hit. This resulted in him behaving in a manner that stunned both sides.
Hollering crazily, he charged fearlessly.
Elisepraised: “Sofierce!”
Monroe cursed: “Dumbass, isn’t he?”
Chasers: “Who this guy think he is? So audacious, is he more fierce than that Mad Woman Elise Clark?”
For a moment, Isko’s aura subdued the force of more than sixty chasers.
Even their relentless offensive lost a bit of its intensity.
As their smooth onslaught momentarily faltered, a sliver of an opening appeared.
Link seized this fleeting opportunity.
He launched consecutive Self-Destructing Fire Thunders to clear a path.
Simultaneously, he leaped out of the trench, maxed out his speed and charged in an even fiercer manner than Isko.
Deploying the Mind Closure Technique at full throttle, he activated the MultiThreading Thinking Status Card.
Instantly turning into a human-like supercomputer with top-grade AL
Peaking for eight seconds!
The Pseudo Destiny Witchcraft, “Continuous Casting”, “Parallel Casting”, “Threefold Casting”.
Instantly becoming a human-shaped Magic Machine Gun.
Under the intense red glow, Link appeared as if he had three heads and six arms.
While maneuvering through the weak spots in the enemy’s offensive, dodging their attacks, charging at high speed, he continuously threw Self-Destructing Fire Thunders and unceasingly launched the same Zero Ring magic: Water Ball Spell.
Bang, bang, bang…
Self-Destructing Fire Thunders were unceasingly exploding.
Biu, biu, biu…
Fist-sized water balls showered continuously.
Ruthless onslaught.
Reckless charging.
The offensive power of the Water Ball Spell was severely insufficient and could not break through the defense.
However, its main point was to create an extreme downpour in a very short time.
It specifically targeted the eyes of the chasers.
Even if they dodged, intercepted, or shattered it, it did not matter.
The rising steam could disrupt the chasers’ sight, even if only for a second.
What Link wanted to do was to disrupt the chasers’ rhythm in that moment when their offensive slacked, buying time for Team Elise and Team Monroe to adjust and counterattack.
As for what comes later, Link believed in the power of the team.
The chasers were completely stupefied by Link’s gatling-like onslaught.
They plucked up their courage and easily killed the one who charged ahead fearlessly and scared them.
With a sigh of relief, they were just about to relax.
Then another guy who also charged ahead recklessly emerged from the opposite side.
They couldn’t help but feel frustrated.
Is this some kind of monkey scare?
When one didn’t work, they sent another?
They were infuriated and met Link head-on.
Immediately, they were beaten helplessly, losing their rhythmic and dense offensive.
Ehse, who was soaring through the sky, saw Link jump out of the trench and instantly ignited with fervor.
The insanity immediately surged into her mind.
Rationality? What the heli was that?!
“Charge!”
With a bizarre scream from Elise, she adjusted her direction.
Flames erupted from the soles of her boots, and her speed increased to the maximum, swooping down.
Both hands moved with lightning speed, pulling from a bag on her chest Self-
Destructing Fire Thunder with various additions and the great weapon!
“Crazy!”
Monroe cursed after he had just shifted his direction.
