“Unleash your true abilities, Elise!” Gina started to panic. “You are God’s servant, right!?”
A burst of lightning appeared in the distance. Gina and Elise were startled and looked around, but Checo waspletely unaffected.
“Th-that is the proof.” Elise caught her breath. “My master sent the thunderbolt.”
“Really?” Checo raised his eyebrows. “The explosion could mean anything. It could just be something you prepared. Maybe you’ve set it to explode at some point. Or you have a magic tool tomunicate remotely with your acquaintance.”
“Shit.” Raymund Snorted. “I did the lightning far away to not start a fire in the forest. If my guess is right, they keep the oil there, and I don’t know where it is. It will be bad if the oil gets hit by my lightning.”
“Send them amunication device like you gave Renee, sir!” Elise didn’t care anymore and pleaded with her master.
“A tool like that takes time to make. I currently don’t have it in stock.” Raymund lied. There were still two more missions before he could get his hands on the tool again.<sub>.</sub>
Gina took a few steps forward. “We don’t want to kill you, Elise. I already know that you are from God’s ce, but my friends need proof!”
Elise couldn’t do anything else.
“I had to paralyze her, Gina. She has seen what we did.” Checo’s gaze became even more serious.
Gina closed her eyes. “Damn it.”
Checo sighed. “Sorry for bringing you to a ce like this. We don’t want other people to see….”
Instead of going forward, Checo turned his body around, blocking the knife attack from Diego, who was already there. Diego then gave abination of knife swings and kicks to Checo. Checo did not stay still. He also swung his club at Diego, but his enemy was able to dodge swiftly.<sub></sub>
“I’m sorry, Miss Elise!” Diego chuckled as he continued to attack. “I have to confirm that you are not their friend.”
“Attack Gina, Elise!” Raymund’s orders filled Elise’s ears. Gina’s attention is now turned to the battle between Checo and Diego.
Elise widened her eyes. She didn’t really know Gina, and the female warrior had never attacked a human before.
“Why are you standing still….” Raymund gasped, then was silent for a moment. “No, I have another n. Listen to me…”
The female warrior’s chin started to drop. She couldn’t believe her own ears. How could her master order her to do something like that?
Diego doesn’t look defeated yet, even though he has to dodge Dani’s chain attacks from various directions and magic shots from Gina’s hands.<sub></sub>
The assassinughed again. “Ah, this is my bad habit. Even though I’m an assassin, I love directbat like this.”
After delivering a sh that managed to injure Checo’s cheek, Diego leaped back and disappeared among the trees. Checo and Gina pressed their backs against each other, checking their surroundings.
“There’s a chance he’s escaped!” Gina panicked again. Her two raised hands began to tremble.
“Even if that’s the case, we still don’t know which way he’s going.” Checo snorted. “We’d better be on guard if he attacks and leaves all of this to Dani. Diego and Dani are fighters of the same type.”
“I think the three of them get along just fine. They just pretended to be fighting a lot. It was so that if they split up in guarding the ntation, there would be a reason.” Raymund came to a conclusion. “They need to move freely by dividing the task of preparing for field sabotage. They are few in number.”
Gina smirks, despite the situation. “If Diego runs away, we’re really screwed… Aah, we have to leave that vige, even though I really like the food they cook.”
Checo nced at Elise, who already looked ready to fight again. “I hope you don’tplicate things, Elise. Our fight is postponed. And don’t run away, or we’ll have to kill you. We will definitely be able to catch you.”
“That old man was just bluffing.” The God told his servant. “If you run now, they won’t be able to catch you because they’re focused on Diego. However, this is not the time to run away, Elise.”
There was a rustling sound above the tree, followed by falling leaves. Apparently, the fight between Dani and Diego is already underway. Checo and Gina couldn’t help but stare in different directions again, wary of what might happen.
Suddenly, something fell onto the clump of roots, making a loud crackling sound, and made Checo and Gina gasp. It was Dani, who was now lying on the ground holding his bleeding right shoulder.
“Dani!!!” Gina immediately crouched down to check on her partner’s condition.
“Shit!” Seeing Dani’s condition, Checo is getting more and more frustrated. “Diego’s abilities are really above us.”
There was a tter of quick steps. Yes, Elise is about to make a charging thrust move.
“What!?” Diego, who was about to attack Checo from behind, was forced to jump back to avoid Elise’s sword. However, Elise manages to injure Diego’s arm. As soon as hended, the assassin snapped. “What are you doing, Elise!?”
Gina and Checo opened their mouths in surprise, watching Elise with her back to them. The female warrior now raised her sword at Diego.
“Look, Diego’s abilities are clearly above the rest.” Elise’s brain repeated Raymund’s words just a moment ago. “But, he is alone, Elise. Soon he will lose. You’d better be on the side with more people.”
“I-I’m sorry.” Elise couldn’t hide her nervousness. “You have helped me, but our goals are different. I must destroy this ce ording to my master’s request.”
Elise spoke ording to her master’s order.
Diego wiped the blood on his arm, chuckling again. “Humph, I have to admit that your attack was unexpected, but it wasn’t enough to defeat me. Now I’m angry, and you don’t want to see me angry….”
The man suddenly froze. His eyes widened, and he looked down. Dani’s chain spike had already pierced his stomach, making a wound that was so bloody.
Feeling goosebumps, Elise checked under her left armpit. There was already a chain stretched out there. Yes, Dani threw his weapon past the female warrior’s armpit.
“The great Diego, huh?” Dani chuckled back. “Perhaps you were still so shocked by Elise’s attack that you forgot about me?”
