Chapter 299: Divide And Conquer III
Reynolds was currently resting in a cave trying to recover as much elemental essence as possible. He didn’t use much when he fought against Hamon because the summon didn’t stay out for long, but he would be relying heavily on it if he wanted to kill the ladies.
‘Hmm, those two ladies shouldn’t be far behind. I’ll kill them before the others come.’
He thought of a plan while waiting for his opponents. While waiting for them, he suddenly recalled his friends. If Grey, Alice, and Klaus were here, then he wouldn’t need to run away. They could take on this group without any issues.
Thinking of his friends, he searched his body and brought out the wooden object Grey gave to him. He ran his finger through it before keeping it. The thought of using it to call on his friends flashed through his head, but he quickly dismissed it. Since these people were searching for him, he was almost one hundred percent certain that his friends weren’t having an easy time as well.
‘If only Grey was able to make those things, then I’d have been able to ask how they were doing,’
Reynolds waited for a few more minutes before the two young ladies got close. He stood up and walked out of the cave stretching his body.
He didn’t summon the Elemental Warrior immediately, rather, he waited patiently till the young ladies appeared before him.
“Surrounder now,” The young lady in the Fourth stage of the Origin Plane said when they saw Reynolds.
“Heh! With the likes of you?” Reynolds asked mockingly.
The young lady in the Fourth stage’s expression turned sour. She didn’t think Reynolds would be so cocky.
“Hmph! We’ll see about that,” The young lady snorted coldly before attacking.
She sent out a huge fire snake towards Reynolds.
The other young lady attacked when she saw the first one attacking, she was an Earth Elementalist, so she made earth spikes sprout out of the ground where Reynolds was standing.
Lightning danced around Reynolds’ body before he disappeared from the spot he was standing on before both young ladies’ attacks got to him.
Boom!
The fire snake struck the ground, causing an explosion, and destroying the earth spikes.
Reynolds appeared close to a tree a few meters away, but as soon as he appeared, the Fire Elementalist struck out again.
Boom! Bam! Bang!
Reynolds continued dodging her attacks, vanishing and appearing in different locations. The quickness and accuracy of the young lady’s attacks were terrifying. He genuinely felt some pressure from her, if not for his Elemental Warrior, then he didn’t think he would have any chances of fighting her to a draw, much less defeating her.
Boom!
He dodged another attack, but this time, he noticed an earth cage surrounding him.
Buzz! Bang!
The lightning dancing around him exploded out, destroying the earth cage that was trying to hold him down.
After destroying it, he summoned his Elemental Warrior.
Bam!
An attack that was coming from behind him was blocked by the Elemental Warrior.
The Fire Elementalist’s expression turned serious when she saw the lightning summon. This was the first time she was fighting against a summon, but she still felt confident in her abilities.
Swish!
The Elemental Warrior moved at lightning speed towards the Earth Elementalist, pointing its sword at her.
The Earth Elementalist freaked out for a second, but she quickly got herself together before setting up a wall to block the advances of the Elemental Warrior.
Bang!
The Elemental Warrior slashed through the wall with a single stroke but was met with an attack from the Fire Elementalist who had been waiting for it.
They continued exchanging attacks for a minute before both young ladies started having a difficult time defending against the onslaught of attacks from the Elemental Warrior. Its attacks were strong and relentless, giving the ladies a headache.
The Elemental Warrior is a stage above the Fire Elementalist, and two stages above the other young lady. It has attack powers that could rival a Sixth stage Origin Plane Elementalist, so it was difficult for the ladies to keep up. What made things more difficult was its close-range attacks.
“We can’t keep on like this, attack him, he’s defenseless now,” The Fire Elementalist said to the other young lady when they managed to get a breather.
“Okay,” The Earth Elementalist nodded.
With a plan in mind, they immediately set it in motion. The Fire Elementalist would try to keep the Elemental Warrior busy, while the Earth Elementalist would deal a fatal strike to Reynolds. They couldn’t kill him, but they weren’t ordered not to beat him up.
According to what was known about summoners, they are vulnerable once they summon their summons. Summoners mostly summon their elemental creatures when fighting against a single opponent since multiple opponents could keep the creature busy while the others deal with the summoner.
Both young ladies were planning to use precisely this knowledge to deal with Reynolds. Although it was a bit risky since it was difficult for both of them to defend against the Elemental Warrior, much less one of them.
Reynolds watched as the Elemental warrior easily overpowered the ladies, and a smirk appeared on his face. At this rate, he should be able to finish off both ladies within three minutes.
Boom!
The fight raged on, and most parts of the forest they were in had been destroyed by it.
The Fire Elementalist gritted her teeth angrily, she had been trying to create an opportunity for her comrade to exploit on getting close to Reynolds, but the Elemental Warrior was more than a handful.
They were both looking tattered, and their hairs were a mess. They weren’t concerned about their current appearance though, keeping their life was more important than looks.
One more minute went by and the Fire Elementalist was finally able to create an opportunity for her comrade, at the cost of being stabbed on the shoulder by the Elemental Warrior with a lightning blade.
“Go, now!” She yelled while sending out a fireball that exploded out on the Elemental Warrior.
The Elemental Warrior attacked the fireball, making it explode, but before it could turn around, the Earth Elementalist was already close to Reynolds.
