Chapter 53: 4 v 4

[Dean POV]

     These three are tough, but maybe I can finally do that. They of course somehow found their fourth member which Shiro took on.

     "Use skill: Dark Elf- Retribution." The souls of many Dark Elves appeared and attacked with their weapons, but they would only last for 20 seconds. I felt a sharp pain in my side as I saw a knife destroyed below my feet. I pulled out the rest of the knife from my side and got back to fighting only to be punched to the barrier which hurt more than you would think.

     "Use skill: Dark Elves Kindness." I got back into the fight while I looked over to see Shiro holding up the barrier and fighting which couldn't have been very easy. I need to beat my opponent and help out everyone. We're way stronger as a group rather than alone. I fought the knife user more and soon his knife became sharper and became shrouded in an ominous energy that I could tell was dangerous. 

     "Use skill: Inverted Energy." It turned any type of energy towards its user which made the knife point towards his direction and stab his own gut. The thing is that it only works as a close range skill, but I have to say that was a close one. 

[Shiro POV]

     Shit, this isn't fucking easy. All these fuckers suck and the worst one is coming for me. I still need to see their wedding even if Chloe isn't marrying me! I have to wish them luck and tell Vicente to protect her no matter what. Even if I hate that I'm not the one she's marrying, I support them with my entire being. 

     "You're in the way!" I shot multiple spells towards my enemy which were destroyed, but found himself on my ice blade. I took some lessons from Vicente and even if he didn't teach me how to use Conqueror Style, he did teach me how to wield a sword. I wasn't the best at it, but I could still use it enough to catch him off guard. He was regenerating with some sort of black electricity or energy, but I charged at him with multiple spells and my sword. I used everything at my disposal to attack him and even managed to stab his stomach and shoulder a few times. I hate to say that what Vicente taught me was really coming in handy. 

     "Hope you like explosions." He smiled as the dark energy surrounded us. I let go of the sword and created multiple barriers around each of us as the explosion destroyed my barrier. It did hit the barriers I had set up for my allies while also hurting his own allies. This guy doesn't care what happens to his teammates, but I do.

     "I'll kill you!" He charged at me with the same black energy as he stabbed straight through my gut with my sword. You could see the sword on the other side of my body.

     "Hope you like explosions, dumbass!" That was my explosive clone. He was reduced to ash while I was burned a bit, but nothing too serious.

[Sophia POV]

     This bitch is really starting to annoy me. 

     "Use skill: Judgement 1: Fury of the Judged. Use skill: Aura. Use skill: True Imbalance. Use skill: Judgement 2: Mage Judgement." It seemed like a dark energy started to stop it, but their darkness started to grow. I can see something different about their darkness. I still can't lose!

     "What's wrong, can't keep up?" This bitch was really getting on my nerves.

     "Use skill: Hell Barrage. Use skill: Combo Crash." She was bleeding out, but it was almost like her blood was hardening to keep fighting. It was eerie and I didn't enjoy having to constantly beat on my enemy.

     "Look out!" I heard Dean scream as I felt this barrier surround me. An explosion hit the side of the barrier and a spear broke through it while leaving me unscathed. My opponent wasn't hurt too bad from it and kept attacking me as if she couldn't feel. I kept on the offensive as we traded blows and caused blood to pour from each of our bodies.

     "Use skill: Judgement 3: Hell's Judge." She was done after the barrage of attacks and burning sensation of her sins that attacked her from the outside and from within. I really don't feel like moving right now, but something tells me that I might have to. I still have a huge battle to take care of, but maybe a tiny rest is well-deserved or a healing spell from Shiro or Chloe.

[Hailey POV]

     I still have too much left to do and of course there's a swordsman to fight against. She was slashing at my undead soldiers like it was nothing, but the mages did seem to do some damage. This place was too crowded to bring out more soldiers to overwhelm her, but I could bring out my strongest soldiers. I can't believe she's taking them on like it was nothing, but I won't let myself be defeated that easily. 

     "Use skill: Promote x4. Use skill: Greek Fire." This is really going to hurt her. Promote allows me to evolve one of my soldiers to the next class level [Ex:Healer-->Paladin]. The Greek Fire spell would burn in a white color with more intensity than regular fire spells. It was one of the spells I picked up from studying the magic books and training by myself. She wasn't giving up just yet as she slashed the same spot multiple times to cause more damage to the giant tank soldier in front of me. I need something big to take her out, but maybe I just need to put her under some sort of restriction.

     "Use skill: Quicksand." I slammed the ground and made her general area turn into quicksand which slowed her down enough to let my soldiers beat her until she was unconscious on her feet.
