A Little Desire Of Anti - Hero

Arc I - Chapter 75: Time of Silence - 1

"Raagghhh!" A roar rang out, loudly booming as Wess' huge claws swung, descending swooping down slashing at the body of a soldier in front of him.

This battle between the Night Eye team and the Reutania guards was already unavoidable. Despite trying to hide themselves from Reutania's eyes, the trail they left behind allowed the guards to discover their whereabouts.

The scale of the battle that took place this time was large, much larger than the previous ones. Making Ci can not help much without exposing its existence. Thus, his help could not be given and made him just a spectator.

The number of soldiers in the Reutania stronghold had an initial number of forties when meeting the Night Eye team, of course, the number of people Ci lost did not count. However, even though their numbers continued to decrease, but with their strength level which was also not far from the gold level around silver level 8-10, the Night Eye team could not cope quickly.

Even that was already with the help line Reutania had Ci broken up without anyone noticing. However, the behind-the-scenes effort went to waste as a platoon of troops headed towards the Night Eye team.

Although Ci could have reduced their numbers, he was unable to do as much as before because he felt that one of the troops was approaching platinum level. Even though he can still handle it, it is definitely not possible in 1-2 seconds.

"Hmm, there's something strange here" muttered one of the troops. Gazing at the battle in front of him that was still going on, he shook his head.

"Speed up your steps!" As soon as he shouted this, the troops immediately sped up a pace. Rather than taking care of that strange feeling, he preferred to take care of this battle before his eyes which Reutania's army was increasingly desperate.

The troops moved in regularly, following the direction of the man. With the ground shaking and a roaring sound heard, Xion and the rest of the Night Eye team turned their eyes away with bitter faces. While the desperate Reutania warriors before had bright faces.

"Captain Tenor!" call one of the soldiers.

That person, Tenor nodded deeply before turning his gaze on the Night Eye team. Positioning his long spear, he lowered the command he had been waiting for.

"Everything! Take your weapons up! Attack!"

"YES!"

The army advanced, like a dam collapsed. Troops poured into the battlefield like a great flood, sweeping through the Night Eye team that only had five people to go against the current.

With danger rising, Yuzu and Zee who are witches begin to gather. The water and wind magic both started to become clay, shoulder to shoulder to shoulder to overcome that great current.

"Zee, can you handle this for a while?"

"You can hand it to me. Besides we're not just the two of us, remember that."

Nodding in response, Yuzu relinquished her control on the water element magic. Uniting his hands, he began to gather mana, preparing another magic.

"Heal Area!" The green glow of the pedar began to gather, enveloping the bodies of Dian, Xion, and Wess who had wounds all over the body. After a while, the bleeding on the wounds stopped and he continued to recover.

Sweat drenched Yuzu's forehead, but she returned to chanting magic. "Magic: Aqua Whips!"

With the dew of water beginning to collect, a whip is formed. The whip swung wildly, trying to withstand his opponent's attack.

Starting from healing magic to the advanced level, the water element as a protector, to its special abilities as a. Even so, it needs to be seen if his support can now help the current situation of the team.

Sparks after sparks formed in the air, coming from Xion fighting the Tenors. His sharp claws and the man's spear kept clashing, and he tried to suppress his opponent. However, it will not happen because the Tenor movement is the one who actually makes it difficult.

'I can't take care of this myself, ' Xion thought. Realizing his limitations, he chose to retreat and Tenor did not pursue him.

While Xion thought of this and that, Tenor weighed the strength of his opponent. 'The enemy this time is not entirely as I thought, are they weaker?'

During the fight with Xion earlier, Tenor was only trying to test the water. Not using all of his strength and only taking out a few to know the level of strength of the opponent. However, once he felt a little doubtful whether the other party had only shown him the tip of the iceberg, it was exactly as he did.

Recalling the number of soldiers lost due to the —tim Night Eye and Ci— intruders in the last period of time, he naturally hoped that his opponent's level would be more than this. Throwing away the thought of underestimating the opponent, Tenor tried to look for a hypothesis.

"I'm sure this is also because the side is exhausted after continuing to experience the battle," he murmured to a conclusion.

Setting up his spear again, Tenor took a step, taking the initiative to start the attack first.

Tang!

With a loud sound, Tenor's spear collided with Wess' large arm that had gone first. Taking on the role of shield for Xion, he left the previous place and placed a full burden on Yuzu and Zee.

"Yes!" Xion blinked, but soon recovered and helped this fellow.

Glancing at the wound left on Wess' arm, Xion could not help but shiver. 'Even the damage Wess received was considerable, the fact that he had the highest defensive power among us implies one thing.'

Taking a deep breath, Xion's gaze came into focus. "The man hasn't been serious since" he said.

As both sides had more understanding of their opponents, all sorts of plans were prepared. Xion and Wess had been completely bound by Tenor, they were unable to break away from each other and were only in a sticky situation.

However, on the other hand the burden must be on Yuzu and Zee. Even so, as if the two of them were connected they were still somehow able to overcome it. Of course Dian who helped them is unforgettable, and therefore Yuzu can sometimes take off her hand to turn to Xion and Wess' health.

The dagger in Dian's hand once again passed through the neck of a soldier, making the soldier's body have to be drenched in blood and become a stiff corpse. With his successful attack, he again disappeared in the shadows looking for an opportunity to be able to launch his attack back.

When compared to the fighting style of others in the team who face to face in advance, Dian's fighting style is very different. He did not want a continuous offensive, but a high-explosive attack in one go.

"I can do it," Convincing herself by saying this, Dian tried switching once again. With the gaps in Tenor's movements that he would exploit, quick and tactical movements were displayed.

As Tenor swung his spear in a huge sweep, trying to make his opponent retreat, the back of his body was wide open. With a flash of shadow, Dian suddenly appeared to take advantage of the gap.
