Chapter 572 Water, Earth, Fire, Wind.

"Your bro's dead for sure."

"?!"

The other immediately turned around upon hearing Evan's voice, swinging his arm and sending a massive slash of pressurized water towards the hero while backing away.

In response, Evan released an icy aura that engulfed the water slash and turned It into a chunk of ice mid-air, before seizing control of the projectile and redirecting it back to sender.

The guy was quick on his feet, immediately kicking off the ground to dodge the ice slash that carved the ground where he was a moment ago.

He waved his hands and activated multiple water magic spells, surrounding Evan with three spell circles, one in his front and two on either side.

The first one released a powerful vortex of turbulent water, swirling with destructive intent, the second unleashed torrents of water that rose like towering walls of liquid fury while the third just released a cascade of water that threatened to drown Evan with its sheer volume and force.

The three spells converged upon him and surrounded him in an aquatic prison with no visible chance of escape.

But before these three masses of water—enough to flood the park they were in—could hit Evan, a sudden eruption of frigid energy from the boy's body disrupted their course.

The icy maelstrom encased the oncoming spells, stilling their turbulent waters with the intense cold and solidifying them within a prison of ice.

Without even a second's delay, the frozen spells were transformed into deadly projectiles, hurtling back to the Senior Member with breakneck speed.

The threatening jagged forms of the ice chunks descending upon him had the man summoning walls of water to block whilst using skills to knock down as many as he could.

However, Evan decided to mess with him, making all the projectiles detonate either upon contact with his defensive barriers or his skills.

The explosions enveloped him in a brutal embrace of cold and frost, knocking him through the air and onto the cold blades of grass on the floor.

Evan retracted his icy aura into his body after seeing the knocked-down man, but just when he took a step forward, three presences suddenly entered his range of detection.

"About time you guys showed up."

As soon as he spoke, the three other Demonic Hand Senior Members flashed into the park, their hands cupped at their sides with elemental power condensing into dense volatile balls of energy.

Simultaneously, they thrust their arms forward to shoot out three streaming powerful beams of earth, fire, and wind energies respectively towards Evan.

'Elemental Shield.'

A radiant spherical shield materialised around him, its surface shimmering with the elemental energies of the three elements they had just used.

***BOOOOMM!!!!!

The three beams collided with the protective barrier in a deafening explosion of energy, shaking the foundations of all nearby buildings in the district. A massive crater formed at the epicentre of the impact, sending billowing smoke and debris high into the sky.

As the smoke gradually cleared, the sight that emerged left the three Senior Members astonished.

There stood Evan, completely unscathed and untouched behind the cracked yet resolute Elemental shield.

Even if they didn't expect to kill him with that, it was still surprising to see he was completely unscathed.

As for Evan, the boy was looking at the elemental affinities of the four of them, his eyes widening slightly as he realised something.

"Water, Earth, Fire and then Wind?"

He held up a hand to his lips and coughed lightly, before beginning to speak with a serious voice.

"Long ago, the four nations l????????????i????????v??????e?????????????????d????????????????? ??????t????????????????????????o??????????????????????g??????????????????????-"

[The goddess 'Artemisia' says you should be serious for once in your life.]

[I agree with Big Sis.]

Kayla spoke up to concur with the goddess' words, manifesting her physical body right beside Evan with her two arms stretched out.

[Laser Ring.]

A runic circle manifested on the ground underneath her feet, prompting five large 50cm cubes of golden lightning to appear, forming a ring around her.

The next moment, the rings began rotating at sonic speed, and just when the Senior Member tried to scramble out of the way, the ring radiated a golden blinding light, releasing five massive laser beams in all directions.

***BOOOOMMM!!!!!!!!

In an instant, the area around them was turned into a sea of flames and the pained grunts of the four Senior Members rang out as the devastating explosion of lightning energy wounded them.

[Master, you would not be able to finish things quickly if you're still trying to limit the collateral damage.]

Kayla spoke as she snapped her fingers and caused lightning bolts to descend in the directions of the four Senior Members, however, the presences suddenly multiplied by two before a surge of demonic energy filled the area.

"I know. Anyway, could you be a dear and handle the other grunts that are closing in on our location?"

[Hmm? Oh, those weaklings. Fine.]

The lightning spirit spoke as she flew up into the air and turned into a streak of lightning that quickly disappeared into the distance, while Evan gave a silent prayer for the souls of the unfortunate mid-ranked Demonic Hand members.

"Shit! That spirit! It's Evan Eris!"

"Don't hold anything back against him, otherwise we're dead meat!"

"Demonic Fusion!"

The four Senior Members instantly entered their fused states, gaining the demon race's signature bat-like wings and some other species-based features.

One's body swelled up in size and he gained an extra pair of arms, another gained multiple tails emerging from his lower back and their body stature also grew noticeably.

As for the water user whom Evan was fighting first, he transformed into a half-fox-half-human hybrid.

Without hesitation, the four attacked Evan with renewed intensity, blitzing towards him with near-sonic speed movements and unleashing elemental attacks mixed with magic power and demonic energy.

**BAAMMM! BOOOMM!!!

Evan kicked off the ground and jumped into the air, repeating the same action with his void steps to completely escape the radius of the explosions before activating energy blast and releasing concentrated beams of energy towards the four.

The water user activated a skill, causing magic power to coalesce all over and create a dozen liquid ethereal copies of himself.

Both he and the copies charged forward through the air, unleashing streams of water that transformed into feline beast constructs mid-air, each one roaring out as they swiped their claws at Evan.

The young hero who had stopped playing around, activated his chain lightning skill and hurled a bolt of the element towards the nearest feline water construct.

The bolt crashed onto the beast and vaporized it instantly, before jumping on to the next one and doing the same.

While that happened, he jumped over the two earth and flame swords that came from behind, crossing his arms in front of his chest to block the double punch of the two humanoid water clones that came in right after.

**BAMM!!

The force of the punches sent him flying to the ground, but he didn't crash into it, instead flipping around mid-air and slamming his palms together.

He pulled them apart a second later, with a golden surge of lightning erupting from within and shooting forward towards the mix of wind and fire projectiles that approached.

His pupils darted to the side and a wall of lightning elemental blocks formed right in front of the wind elemental Senior Member, before closing in a 'clapping' motion very quickly, roasting the demonic fused human who wasn't fast enough to dodge with lightning.

The boy's leg dragged against the floor and the ground erupted in a surge of earthen spikes which were blocked by the earth-attributed Demonic Hand member, but the fire wielder came barrelling down towards him from above with a huge sword coated in flames.

She spun around and unleashed a single slash of blazing flames that threatened to burn through everything, but Evan let his body fall backwards into his extending shadow to avoid it, reappearing from her own shadow cast by the sea of flames she had created with her attack.

He activated Paladin and threw out a punch to the back of her neck with lightning coating his arms, activating the fracture skill but the woman's reaction was quick.

She ducked to avoid the lightning-coated fist and spun around to deliver a low kick towards Evan's legs, forcing him to jump up to avoid it.

Airborne and off balance, he quickly became a target for the water clones that came slashing down with pressurized water blades in their hands, while the flame user tried to deliver a punch to his seemingly defenceless stomach.

But when she sensed a sudden gust of cold wind surround her, she pulled back her fist and threw her body out of the way, barely escaping the wave of icy shards that protruded from the ground underneath Evan and pierced through the water clones attacking him.

Evan blinked away and reappeared behind the wind user who was conjuring a storm spell, creating an elemental projected weapon with ice and swinging it down, releasing five fist-sized bullets of aura that blasted his defensive energy coat apart, leaving him vulnerable to the slash that followed the aura bullets.

"GAHH!"
