Chapter 685 - Arcane Vs Orca (2)

Competition Ground, Trinity.

"I am about to run out mana soon at this rate, and my physical supply of arrows is reaching its limit as well." Terry informed about his situation on the communication channel.

"Don't worry, keep the arrows raining.." Axel soon replied. He then went ahead to ask Eren about his situation, "Are you done with it, Eren?"

"Like in hell, I am!! You have asked me to do the impossible!!" He cursed in anger. He was currently working his but off to do the task that he was asked to do.

It was really pressuring to control such a large amount of water at once. It surely was not easy for him, considering that he had yet to break through the Expert Tier.

"Don't worry, just think about the fame that will come after we beat this Orca peeps and smack their cocky faces." Axel encouraged him, and it sure seemed to work. He could practically see the water beginning to drain away faster. It was actually moving further towards the upper side of the road.

If we were to talk about their current location, Axel and his team were around the Clock tower. It can be said to be at a higher level in the city in terms of elevation. And, Orca was coming from the opposite side which was at a lower altitude then them.

Axel on the other hand was busy as well.

He had basically circled a huge block of street, and broke a lot of sweat. But, in his eyes, it was definitely worth it. After all, this was going to help to make Orca break out in cold sweat.

If Kain saw this guy's face now, he might have thought twice before making fun of him. It sure wasn't a good decision to mess with a petty guy who held grudges. To be honest, Axle wasn't like that.

But, after being bullied by Wilson a lot, his personality had changed. He no longer was the kind of guy who would take things lying down. It was some sort of built-in mechanism in his body. It was as if he knew that the silence would further his misery, hence he had to fight and protect what was dear to him.

Like his action figures and posters which were being burnt over and over again.

He was sure to kill Wilson if it happened again.

"Those sibling.." Just thinking about it made Axel's blood boil. But, as soon as he remembered about Erina and the thing that happened in the Hospital. His thought process froze, and he immediately cooled down.

'What in hell am I thinking?' Axel shook his head, and then once again concentrated on the matter in hands.

….

"I see that guy!" Kain smiled as Terry came into his sight. He was right at the terrace of the clock tower in front. There was no way he was running away now. He couldn't come down at this point, and if he tried to, he would find Kain on the way.

And, there surely wasn't a way for him to fly away.

Terry let out a bitter smile, when he was spotted.

Suddenly, his face changed, and he immediately ducked down.

"Bang!"

A sharp arrow made of crystal passed right above his head before piercing half the way through the wall.

"Gulp!" Terry gulped seeing a few strands of his hair fall down. He slowly raised his head, and touched his hair.

Yup, it sure was his.

A bit slower, and he would have lost his head. That sure was scary.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, another arrow came following the first one, and unlike before, it was a brittle one. As soon as it hit the wall, it exploded with a bang. And, send tiny shards of crystal flying in all directions.

"Sh*t!!" Terry cursed as he put his arms over his head. Several tiny crystals pierced into his skin, and he began to bleed all over.

The next instant, he immediately rolled over and got away from the place. His decision was spot on. Because, the moment he was gone, several more arrows followed in a similar fashion.

"Damn! It hurts.." He groaned in pain, before informing in the communication channel about the situation.

"Got it, but don't you die before knocking one." Axel warned him before going off.

Terry's face turned bitter. This guy sure was asking for a lot.

'What to do now?'

If he went below, he sure would meet that guy who was probably rushing up.

"Well, I will trust in his plan then." He muttered with a determined look on his face.

…

"Others are not here?" Aria asked with a frown. Only Terry had been detected until now. There was no sight of the other guys.

Nathan's face didn't look good as well.

"Be careful, there might be three of them inside." He immediately informed Kain who had already rushed inside.

"I will keep it in mind." A reply immediately came.

"Bang!"

Nathan suddenly felt an impact on his chest. And, his face twitched in pain as blood spurted out in the air.

Aria's eyes immediately widened as she turned her head to look at Nathan who was a hundred or so meters away.

She immediately pulled her bow, and next instant, several arrows shot out of it. It seemed to almost cover the sky as they flew in an arc passing by Nathan. She hadn't aimed it at anyone. It was just used as a medium to hide Nathan from the spot where the bullet came from.

She sure had done it in a very clever manner.

Nathan was quick to react as well, and immediately took a cover. His wound was painful and serious. But, it wasn't at a level where he was pulled off of the Competition.

"Did you see where he was?" Nathan asked in pain, but Aria had not seen Axel at all.

…

"Tsk.." Axel clicked his tongue on missing. Things sure would be easy if he had hit him on the forehead.

"It's done. But, I can't hold on for more than 30 minutes.." Eren's voice came from the communication channel.

Axel smiled as he pulled out his revolver and took over the invisible cloak.

It was time for some serious action.
