Elemental Cats

Chapter 463 Clash Of Giants And Toz (1)

?The fire continued ravaging the Flesh Golem for a little while, but it eventually died out after making the Golem use incredible amounts of demonic energy to restore its flesh. Toz wanted to continue with the fight by taking advantage of when the Flesh Golem had been occupied with the flames, but he had to do something else first. He had to lose the baggage that was limiting his movement.

After setting the Flesh Golem on fire, it and the Death Knight were naturally interested in killing him. However, they weren't so free that they could freely chase after Toz as he skirted around the edge of the battle to catch up with the retreating Alliance of Kingdoms.

Since the mana storm had started nearing their battle, the Alliance of Kingdoms knew that they wouldn't be able to do anything. And instead of needlessly trying to endure the storm just to see the three giants fight, it would be better to fall back and see if the mana storm continued their way.

But there was no way an entire army was faster than Toz, even if he carried four people on his shoulder, and he quickly caught up to the Alliance of Kingdoms. Of course, a few people tried to bar his entry and questioned him on his identity. But he had left his bracelet behind and wasn't famous enough for others to know his name or face. However, he was carrying four people that appeared to be injured but alive. He didn't face that much resistance, and when he forced his way through to the backline, where both General Scoll and the field hospitals were, no one stopped him.

The ones who didn't stop him thought that he would go to the medics and healers. But Toz's target was General Scoll. If there was one person who wasn't a traitor or a spy for the people Anaster talked about, it was him. That meant that he would be able to make full use of the information Toz was about to give him while also keeping the members of the infiltration squad alive so that they could testify toward Toz's greatness and well-deserved contributions.

Thankfully, General Scoll was visible even from a distance as he stood atop his now-moving platform with his four subordinates.

Toz hurried toward the general but was quickly stopped by a legion of armored soldiers. This time, Toz didn't force his way through. He was moving toward the most valuable person on the battlefield, after all. Trying to force it would look like a reckless assassination attempt. But he didn't have time to wait for time-consuming identity verifying procedures to take place. He was still tired, but since the cats were fine, Toz was eager to participate in the fight between the three giants again. It looked like fun.

"Let him through."

Fortunately, General Scoll noticed the commotion and who the source of it was. He had even seen how Toz came charging across the battlefield after running ahead of the mana storm. And when Toz arrived, General Scoll also saw how many people he was carrying.

Following General Scoll's command, the guards parted ways for Toz and let him approach General Scoll. They naturally thought that Toz would stay on the ground and state his business. But Toz jumped up to the platform without hesitation and put the four members of the infiltration squad on it.

Merr and Cooper instinctively got ready to take action at Toz's actions. But it became clear that Toz didn't have any ill intentions.

"Where's Braxton?"

General Scoll questioned Toz as soon as he put down the last person.

"Dead. Braxton betrayed these guys while I stayed behind to deal with the Fountain of Death. And then I picked them up on my way back here. Braxton had allied with a bunch of red-robed guys who also infiltrated the Redire Kingdom and the Alliance. They're also the ones who removed the lock on this plane's space, so the Tribe of Death and those red-robed fellas both had portals supporting them."

"..."

"Right! Those red-robed guys are probably going to win the war if you don't do something. Good luck!"

Toz smiled and bid General Scoll farewell before turning around and leaping off the platform toward the battle again. But he turned around in mid-air and spoke again.

"Ask those four for the full story when they wake up. And remember my contribution!"

With those words, Toz dashed off toward the battle between the human giant and the two undead giants.

Surprisingly enough, his body had gotten an opportunity to rest and recover slightly while he just ran at a leisurely pace, unlike when he pushed it to and beyond its limits. Recovering while outrunning a mana storm seemed like something not really feasible, but the mana storm was of fire mana, and after Toz's Baptism of Fire, his body had certainly improved in some ways. Maybe being in close proximity to a lot of fire mana like that helped him recover.

However, Toz didn't really care if the reason he felt so energetic was due to the firestorm, his body, or if he was simply excited at getting to fight after the unsatisfactory ending of his battle with Anaster. And now that he didn't have to worry about himself or the cats, he could finally let loose and go wild.

Besides, if he wanted to find and save Taienra in the future, he would have to go up against opponents stronger than him on multiple occasions. So, fighting against two such opponents while fighting alongside a third individual who was also technically stronger than him would surely be a great experience for Toz.

Slightly excited about the battle, Toz unsheathed his sword and dashed back through the Alliance of Kingdoms toward the three giants who had kept up their battle even after Toz torched the Golem and disappeared. However, Toz could tell that the human giantess had taken a slight beating, probably to stop either or both of her opponents from chasing after him. And the best way to show gratitude was naturally to help her take down the two undead giants.
