Requiem Of A Failed Hero

Chapter 150 Shin The Prodigy

?

"Right..." Raith didn't know what he wanted to say but knew he was about to acknowledge when the whole scenery changed back to what it initially was, immediately his eyes got heavy and everywhere began to swirl, he could not stand for long and just faltered forward and fell into Kortopi's lithe arms.

A knight humanoid with a black smoky sword hung on his back and the helm of his helmet flowed like flames above his head walked forward, his armor was neat and almost with no streak marks, except for his torso and abs region which was full of it. This was Jarvis.

He reached Kortopi and helped carry Raith, together with the other dark soldiers that came out of the corners, beasts and humanoids alike, they all trekked down to the largest building, where a golden temple sat amidst.

Wham!

Large muscle arms smashed one of the red elves, smacking him distance away, he crumbled and tumbled on the floor like a tossed ball before being stopped by the massive tree.

Another one's head was pulled with raw strength– no matter the amount of spears they embedded into the body of this creature it was impossible to stop its assault. Killing them ceaselessly and making blood rain down on everyone.

The red elves were large in number and endlessly poured out of the forest jumped down from the trees, and arrows flew down from the top of the trees but it was to no avail, with a defensive mage class hunter like Yujin, they had nothing to worry about.

Ga-Yun's arrow in a fast sequence ascended but it was not compared to the amount that descended, still, it was making some of them fall from the tree. Not to say she had explosive skills that made the target blow up, hence upper part of the tree was on fire and the forest and home of the elves was turning from a place of jolly to a wildfire. But the red elves with an indomitable spirit were not backing down.

They didn't even look like they were going to back down any moment.

Shin-Hye plunged into them recklessly, no matter how many times she was cut and braced it was not enough to reduce her movement or make her take a breather. The orcs were strong in numbers but her sudden burst forward into them caused a great stir and was even a motivation for the rest that were already giving up.

She was dead to the concept of pain and death, stab her a hundred times she wouldn't die, not from poison not from old age. She had stayed the same appearance ever since she awakened. But the side effect of that was her pale skin and offensive corpse smell that can sometimes be hard to deal with.

Her strength was impressive too, several times she would punch a blow into the red elves skull and another one into the guts, forcing out her hand and pulling out their intestines in the process, her kick made them fly away and in cases where it's a downward smash, they would fall so hard that even the floor would crack. Each punch was like a hammer blow, such that even their armor would dent.

"Ah! Shit, I'm going in!!" Shin shouted and leaped to the sky,

"Orgaromous"

Wringg woiinngg

A magical light manifested itself around his legs. As he landed, the light faded to reveal a fine pair of sneakers, more like a futuristic white shoe.

From the base of each foot, as he carried them one by one going towards Shin-Hye's side of the battle, flames could be seen wriggling at that point.

Shin's eyes blazed with determination as he leaped; unleashing his pyrokinetic skills: He charged forward, propelled with incredible speed by a fiery shoe on fire, he launched a flurry of blazing kicks, each one aimed at different red elves that approached Shin-Hye from her blindside. He was playing the support role effectively.

Shin's awakened ability allowed him to be able to control flames at will? beware, not just the base of his feet.

As the fight prolonged, the elves began to aim for his legs, swiping their swords and spears in that area but he easily dodged them, their focus lessened on Shin-Hye and got more intense on Shin who burnt them with fiery fire, he had taken the stage from his other teammates.

"Damn, I hate prodigies..." Sung Min said as he approached them with a red elf's head in his hand.

"I know right..." Yujin responded and belatedly looked at him as his body reverted to the original. She looked down at his body which was covered in purple blood. Then her eyes picked the head with a crazy expression before death.

"What the hell opp?!" She screamed.

"Oh my." He quickly flung the head away and smiled sheepishly.

"Santaramus!" Shin shouted again, another light wrapped his arms and formed a pair of hand gloves. With it, he formed patterns with flames using his hands and weaved them into his fist. Each punch spew forth a blast of fire that destroyed the area around him.

His movements were almost a blur as he propelled himself using the flames at his feet and charged at them using the flames of his fists. As seconds proceeded into minutes and minutes into hours, Shin's endurance and stamina were monstrous, sweat dripped from his body but he didn't stop, everywhere was being reduced to scorched trees and debris, worse than before. The red elves were suffering so much damage from a single person, the table had drastically turned and they were already in little numbers.

But the main attack squad that approached them before for some reason could not be found. Mok Jae-Hwa suspected they had gone after Raith after seeing that they had been. And with the little of the red elves left, they were able to leave in pursuit of the main attack squad, to save Raith.
