CHAPTER 19: ACTIVATING THE WIND DOMAIN.

“It’s you”. Shasha was stunned at first, but she quickly reverted back to her calm look before speaking nonchalantly.

“I knew you were a grade E expert the first day that I saw you, I just wanted to know your real motive that’s why you’re still alive. Are you the mastermind behind this attack?”

“No, I just came in search of my little brother. Where is he?” The green-haired man was still calm as he went forward to meet the mad witch.

After he was released from his cage and grouped up with Lionel, they went back to the large hall where the battle was already chaotic.

He wanted to join the battle, but when Lionel told him that Morales came here without a grade E expert accompanying him, he decisively rushed here.

Though he had never fought the mad witch, as a grade E powerhouse, he could feel how strong she was. She was stronger than him, that’s the main reason why he decided to lie low in the dungeon.

His Esper ability is force-field control, or better known as telekinesis.

As these 2 powerhouses made idle talk between themselves, the battered group of 5 already used this opportunity to scurry to the corner but Shasha didn’t spare them a glance.

It did not take long before the red-haired lady and the green-haired gentleman stood before each other.

Only a step was separating them, any ambush could prove fatal at such a distance but they were both still nonchalant like nothing was happening.

“I’ll ask you again, where is my kid brother?” The man asked in a calm tone.

The mad witch chuckled. “It’s been a long time since someone of the same rank faced me so fearlessly…, I think I like you already”.

“Well, if your brother is that Esper with a unique ability, then I’m sorry, I already transferred him to a dungeon far more secure than this one. Be calm, he is in perfect hands”. 

Silence descended into the room after she said this.

The man didn’t reply, he let his actions speak for himself. His eyes swiftly grew sharp, staring straight in the mad witch eyes like daggers as a green force started revolving around him.

Shasha was not to be left out. A sweet smile outlined her beautiful face as her red energy also stirred. The atmosphere quickly became strangely offensive and thick.

Boom!!

The green-haired man attacked first as green force exploded from his position, pushing the mad witch away. As she flew, he quickly launched himself at her in mid-air.

The red energy finally flared wildly as for a brief moment, red and green lights flashed in the room, drawing a sharp color contrast.

The floor of the room cracked from the energy convergence as both Espers were launched back from the energy backlash. They both landed gracefully on their feet, smoothly turned around before accelerating to meet each other rapidly.

Morales felt his heart reach his throat as the energy presence in the room rapidly soured, he was shocked as Shasha seemed to have still held back against them.

The mad witch’s red hair flew gracefully behind her with the same goosebumps-inducing smile on her face as she controlled her ability with smooth movements.

She already erected another shield with her red energy which blocked most of her opponent’s attacks, she retaliated by sending small clusters of the red energy at him.

Though most of his attacks were being blocked by the red shield, the green-haired man showed no hesitation in his movements.

Every one of his moves carried power and force, his green energy ravaged across the hall.

Seeing this, Morales felt awe fill his heart but he also snapped out of his daze at this moment. He knew that though they both seemed evenly matched, the mad witch had the upper hand.

If they did not intervene, the outcome would basically be the same. He quickly started giving his companions new instructions.

“Hero, quickly start releasing your psychic currents at her. Try your best to cause her trouble, we’ll take care of the rest”.

“Tigerclaw, help Nightwing to close the distance to her. Try your best to harass her and restrain her movements. Just irritate her, do anything that can impede her movement”.

“Bigfoot…” Morales gave the fellow a deep look. “Follow me”.

He activated all his abilities again, this time he also added the special weapon ability of his storm sword.

-------------------------------------------------------

As soon as they rejoined the battle, the remaining 2 dungeon protectors also reinforced their leader as the battle quickly became chaotic again.

Shasha and the green-haired man became the focus of all the attacks from either side, but they did not flinch as they both utilized the help being rendered to them to hinder their opponent.

Red and green were the dominant colors flashing in the small battlefield, Morales and the others were just side characters.

2 minutes later, Shasha finally scrunched up her face as she sustained her first injury since the battle began.

Her red energy blazed fiercer but they were quickly suppressed by the opposing green energy. The telekinetic forces moved like they had their own consciousness as they kept on targeting the vulnerable places on her body.

From her previous smile, her face gradually turned into a frightening frown. She never expected to receive so much trouble from this group of clowns.

Despite this, she still controlled her emotions as the situation was in the hollows of her palm. Among everyone present, she was confident that she had the most energy reserves.

Whoosh!!

She quickly ducked while at the same time pushing her red energy outwards as a fast kick accompanied by the green energy flashed past above her head.

A big head slowly enlarged on her sight, advancing with tyrannical speed. She predicted this though as the red energy that she released reduced the speed a bit. Her outstretched hands grabbed Bigfoot’s head before slamming it down.

A pair of daggers suddenly came from the wind, startling her as she lost track of the thief’s movements for a bit. They aimed shamelessly at her breast, granting her little time to react.

Seeing the position that the dagger was aimed at, she pushed herself to her limits and rolled backward with fury on her face.  

Red energy converged on her hand as she pulled Nightwing from his stealth again. Not intending to let him go, she bombarded his face with energy empowered punches before launching a kick in between his legs.

Seeing the trajectory of the kick, Nightwing felt cold sweat fill his back.

Tigerclaw intended to come to rescue him but the 2 dungeon protectors held him back, even beating him in the process.

At the last moment before contact, Shasha suddenly withdrew her legs. She glowered on seeing the same sharp sword that just injured her, she directed a glare at Morales.

The green-haired man clashed with her again but she quickly slipped away and went after Morales’s retreating figure.

Her red energy shot forward and almost enveloped Morales already, but he suddenly disappeared from her sight like the flash.

--------------------------------------------------

You have activated flicker:

Your movement is now like the wind, and you have a 5% chance of confusing your opponent.

…

Condition met: You have activated the wind domain of the storm sword.

Wind domain: +10% DEX, +5% attack speed and reaction speed. A small wind domain is summoned that blows wildly to impede your opponent’s movements.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Seeing these 2 consecutive notifications left Morales shocked, but he reacted immediately.

After dodging the red energy that was aimed at him, before Shasha could react, he arrived at her side in less than a fraction of a second. Her eyes widened in shock as his left fist connected with her face.

His sword slashed across as it cut a fresh wound across her face next, drawing blood. She finally erected her shield again but the damage was done.

---------------------------------------------------------

-42

Critical hit -91

You slashed your opponent on the face, you have inflicted your opponent with the bleeding status. -1 HP for the next 15 seconds.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

As she wanted to retaliate, wind suddenly came from nowhere, making her lose her footing and shocking her again. Morales attacked before she could stabilize herself as his sword stabbed forward numerous times consecutively.

Pop!!

Her shield finally shattered which the green-haired man took advantage of.

His green energy empowered fist punched at her abdomen as the green energy used this opportunity to seep into her body.

Unknowing to her, Bigfoot already sneaked behind her as he quickly grabbed her from behind, firmly holding her in place.

Morales stabbed his sharp sword on her chest without much hindrance this time. They finally cornered her, dealing a large burst of damage in a second.

If she had a system, dozens of damage notifications would have spammed her by now.

She felt dizzy from losing so much health in just a moment, but she still reacted despite the desperate situation. She gritted her teeth.

Ahh!!

She shouted as her red energy erupted again, pushing the others away while dragging her backward in a retreat. As soon as the somersaulting momentum stopped, she dropped to her knees and coughed out blood.

“My lady!” The 2 dungeon protectors ran to her side in a panic.

She ignored both protectors, raised her head, and eyed Morales before turning to look at his sword deeply. She wiped the blood on her lips before forcing herself up.

“I really underestimated you Morales. Don’t worry, I have all the time in the world to find out the secret to your sudden spike in strength. We’ll meet again in the future”.

Before Morales could react, she held her 2 protectors, brought out a jade token before crushing it. She disappeared from the room the next moment, with her 2 protectors of course.

The others were left stunned. “We won…”
