Chapter 157 End of the battle, for real this time, hehe.
TWO DAYS AGO...
In the forest, Arin, Leon, and Tessa were in their meeting spot.
"So we retreat if things end up not going so well, right?" Leon asked as he folded his arms.
"Yes," Arin replied, his voice muffled by his mask. "I'll give a sign."
Tessa squinted her eyes, wondering what sign he was talking about.
Arin continued. "If you notice that the Red Aura around my body is gathering around my legs, or in other words, I'm gathering a large amount of Blood Energy in my legs, that's the sign."
"I see....." Tessa muttered.
"Hmm, it would be quite obvious," Leon said. "That's good enough."
Arin nodded his head as he stared at Leon. "Make sure you do your part quickly."
*********
As soon as Alex's clone was destroyed, Leon instantly looked at where Arin and Alex were fighting.
His eyes found Arin's legs, and he noticed that his legs were glowing a bright red..... brighter than the other parts that was shrouded with a red Aura.
And this meant one thing.....
"That's the sign....." Leon and Tessa muttered at the same time as they looked at each other.
Arin had also told Roxanne and Seraphine, so they weren't confused about what was currently going on.
Leon glanced at all of them and nodded his head. They nodded back as they watched him run off in the opposite direction.
With that, the three of them began dashing towards Alex, ready to attack.
Meanwhile, Arin's legs were glowing immensely as he grinned.
"One last attack... Just one more...."
His Overheat Skill would soon run out, and he would be weakened.
Instantly...
WHOOSH!
With his Aura Skill protecting him from the slashes being produced from the tornadoes, he instantly blasted forward, rushing towards Alex.
BOOM!
The ground beneath cracked from the mere force at which he dashed forward.
He moved like a blur, as if he became the wind itself.
This was a result of gathering Blood Energy in his legs. His speed had now even become more insane.
WHOOSH!
Meanwhile, Roxanne, Seraphine, and Tessa had arrived a few distances behind Alex, and they continued dashing towards him, brandishing their weapons.
They were now in the range of the tornadoes.
Instantly, Seraphine created a Blood Barrier, covering the three of them and blocking the slashes as they continued running towards Alex.
Alex and Arin both grinned as their eyes locked, and then.....
"AGHHHHHH!"
They both let out a bone-chilling scream as they attacked, but then, Alex suddenly found himself in that familiar dark space.
Just like before, he quickly resisted it, but it had already given Arin a slight advantage. Enjoy exclusive content from My Virtual Library Empire
Some of the numerous attacks coming from the hole in Alex's chest instantly changed trajectory due to the Arcane Chaos Spell, but they were too much, so some of them were able to reach Arin.
STAB! SLASH!
Some of the attacks ended up hitting Arin, stabbing him in different locations as blood poured out.
But even with that, he ignored the immense pain, and in a swift motion...
SLASH!
He swung his sword with force towards Alex.
Because of the Death's Whisper Spell, Alex's movement was slightly hindered, and Arin used that chance.
Alex's eyes widened, but before he could completely move backward, the empowered Dark sword managed to reach him.
WHOOSH!
Alex's right hand was instantly cut off completely, but the sword continued moving, embedding itself into parts of his chest and going deep, even reaching his bones.
"AGHHHHHHHHH!" Alex let out a scream, even louder than Arin's scream, as a pained expression instantly appeared on his face.
Suddenly, three figures emerged from behind him, and then.....
WHOOSH!
Tessa swung her sword towards Alex's head, but his head seemed to have a sort of defensive barrier, making her sword bounce back.
Seeing this, Roxanne and Seraphine changed the direction of their attacks.
Alex's back was instantly pierced with Roxanne's spear and Seraphine's claws at the same time, earning another scream from him.
Suddenly, black smoke began oozing from his body, making their eyes widen, including Arin.
Arin's Overheat Skill had already deactivated, and he was now weakened.
"Shit....." He muttered.
Alex began standing up as blood poured out from his body from the wounds he had received. Arin was also bleeding profusely, but with the bit of Blood Energy he had remaining, his wounds were already healing, albeit slowly.
Alex's eyes suddenly darkened as the black smoke made Seraphine, Roxanne, and Tessa leap back.
"This is bad....." Tessa whispered.
But before Alex could make a move, a black portal suddenly appeared behind Arin. Three other ones also appeared behind the three girls each, and before Alex could process what was going on, they had all jumped into their different portals.
"Huh?"
Alex's eyes widened. "Don't tell me..... No... No.... No..."
"He got away again.....?"
He fell on his knees as the tornadoes increased, and then.....
"NOOOOOOO!"
