Chapter 153 - Killing
The group walked in the middle of darkness.
Having nowhere to go, they didn't know what they should do.
"Sonia, you b*tch! Why did you do that?" A male teammate shouted as he cursed Sonia, pinning all the blames on her.
"That's right."
They continued to put the blame on her while Lex didn't even try to protect her. In his eyes, their relationship was already over since she had betrayed him just to gain another person's support.
Sonia didn't say anything and could only look down. She would die if they left her here, so she decided to swallow everything first until they returned. At the same time, her eyes wandered to two people before sneering at them.
They were the Knight and Ranger of their groups. The two knew about her plans, but when everyone mocked her, they also blamed her to avoid anyone's attention. They knew Sonia wouldn't be able to do anything for the time being.
Suddenly, the sky turned brighter. It wasn't supposed to happen and there shouldn't be any monsters in the area.
As soon as they raised their vision, the light flew toward them. They then realized it wasn't light but Magic Bullets. There were forty Magic Bullets raining down on them.
Their magician saw this attack and somehow reacted to it by creating a giant translucent shield on top of their heads.
"Magic Shield."
"Ene—" The group wanted to warn them, but they realized something was wrong. Unfortunately for them, the next thing they noticed, a spear had already pierced their magician's head, killing him in one blow.
The group dropped Lex and Sonia at the same time because they needed to look around to see the enemies.
They were wondering who would attack them. Because of the incident earlier, there was only one person coming to their mind, albeit they were too late.
The moment they recognized the enemy, Phyrill had appeared above them.
He was so fast after relying on the skill he got from Radvils, Lightning Step.
He waved both swords and chopped down their Fighter's head in that moment of confusion.
This was Phyrill and Theo's strategy.
Because Alea asked Theo not to kill them, they thought Theo wouldn't do anything to them, lowering their guard.
Theo took advantage of this chance to kill two of them. And with Lex and Sonia's condition, they only needed to fight the Knight and Ranger.
"You bastard, don't you think you have done enough?!" Lex shouted while glaring at Theo, who emerged from the woods. He had realized they had gone too far that even if they made a commotion, Alea and the others wouldn't hear them.
Theo remained silent and pointed his hand at them, summoning his Magic Bullet.
Lex clenched his teeth, wanting to move, but the excruciating pain that jolted his mind every time he tried to move his body stopped him. Sonia, on the other hand, raised her stance. Even though she didn't have her equipment like the others, she was still a fighter of this group.
Sonia and the Knight realized Phyrill was here, so if they charged at Theo, Lex and the Ranger would be exposed to Phyrill. At the same time, if they didn't do anything, they would also be in deep trouble.
There was also a chance that other members of Alea's group were still hiding behind a tree, so they didn't know what to do.
Theo suddenly raised his head, looking at the Ranger since it was their concern. "Magic Bullet."
The Knight saw Theo's eyes and its trajectory, so he moved to the left to block the Magic Bullets, yet, a smile appeared on Theo's face as soon as the Knight went between them.
"Wait, no!" The Knight shouted as he saw the Magic Bullet suddenly turned to the left, diagonally to the ground.
Yes, the Magic Bullet's real aim was none other than Lex, who couldn't do anything on the ground. Theo believed Lex could still use his skills to help his team, so before he could do anything, it was best to eliminate him.
Boom.
Lex gritted his teeth and tried to summon his Magic Shield, but it was too late. He looked at the Magic Bullets while cursing in his mind. 'A first-year student has achieved Force Control and he is not even famous in the academy? Are you freaking kidding me?'
There was only a glimmer of people who could do force control, even among the third-year students. Never in his mind appeared a nameless first-year student would be able to achieve the control.
Due to this sudden reveal, Lex couldn't react to whatever he had and died with five holes in his body.
As one would expect, even though Theo was able to do it, his aim was still not perfect. Luckily, he managed to kill Lex since one of the bullets managed to hit the heart.
"You…" Lex dropped to the ground and died with a regretful face.
Before anyone could react, another shadow emerged behind them.
Sonia turned around and tried to stop whoever came from behind, only to be shocked after finding another Theo.
"What?!" Sonia drew a gasp and instinctively grasped the spear Theo threw to kill their magician.
Right after Theo took her attention, Phyrill once again appeared next to her, trying to kill Sonia.
The Ranger pointed his bow at Phyrill and released an arrow to stop Phyrill's movement.
Unfortunately for them, it was also another distraction. The Knight saw Theo releasing four Magic Bullets at the same time, turning them into forty.
"What?!" The Knight widened his eyes. This technique wouldn't be that useful to fool a monster, but it was different for humans. In that instant, the Knight didn't realize thirty of them were fake.
Theo pressured him even further by releasing his shot diagonally to the left, where no one was there. However, the Knight knew Theo was trying to do the same trick to ambush Sonia and the Ranger.
He quickly stepped over to the right while raising his shield.
As he expected, the Magic Bullets turned and hit him. Yet, it was also another distraction.
There was no change in Theo's expression, but the Knight lost sight of him in an instant. He tried to activate his Awareness and found Theo appearing behind the Ranger.
"What?!" The Ranger sensed his presence as well, but he couldn't react to Theo's Blink before his mind went blank when a spear pierced his heart. "Impossi…"
And with the fall of the Ranger, only two people remained.
