Prologue 2

Bilanda remained calm, for a few seconds nobody moved and stared at each other. Analysing the situation, he remained expressionless. A small gap created itself between the men and two groups of 3 was formed.

Thinking rapidly, Bilanda didn't want his house to be leveled down and the course of their fight might eventually make it happen. He erected a barrier behind him and to his left which was the side in which his daughter's room was, though a bit farther than the location of their fight.

As if on cue, both sides launched on each other at the same time.

while flying towards them, he analyzed them based on their energy signature and their display.

'A strength type, a fire elemental, a shifter, a wood elemental, a thunder elemental and even a creationist. Well well, i have to finish this fast'

The strength type elemental who had a 3 meter tall body with a bulky musculature let out a loud roar while throwing rapid punches at Bilanda furiously. Without trying to evade the punches, Bilanda nonchalantly raised his left hand and it was soon noticed by his challenger due the sound and the small vibrations made that an invisible barrier was erected.

With his right hand, he made a crushing gesture in the direction of the shifter who in this small lap of time transformed himself to a 4 m tall creature Bilanda didn't have the luxury to identify.

The space around the shifter started to diminish like a metallic can being crushed just that this time it was his bones being compressed. He let out a groan, fighting himself out of this predicament.

Bilanda soon noticed that roots vines were growing at an alarming rate under him, trying to entangle his legs. He didn't even bother with it, almost at the same moment, the fire elemental launched 2 massive fireballs at him yet again.

Before it even reached him, the heat emanating from it was already cracking up the corridor's wall where they were having their fight. In a milli second he stopped his crushing gesture with his right hand and drew two dimensional holes, one in the path of the fireballs and the other just on top of the shifter trying to recover from his bones been crushed.

Markus the shifter didn't even have the time to yell, he saw death coming to his embrace through the fireballs of his own ally. The fireball came out of the gate who materialized out of thin air on top of his head and outright scorched him, releasing a burnt scent.

Simultaneously, he made a cutting gesture with his free right hand towards the bulky 3 meter muscle man in front of him who was threatening to break his erected barrier.

The latter didn't even see what killed him when he witnessed with his own 2 eyes and from a high point of view his body falling, headless.

All these events happened in the span of a minute. Tenko, the wood elemental who was trying to entangle Bilanda with his roots vines shouted

"NOOOO, HENRY !!!"

He noticed that Bilanda was protected by some sort of invisible cocoon and all his attempts ended in failure.

He thought to himself 'Where is Quentin? the fight didn't even last a minute and we already have 2 casualties, we detached ourselves from the rest but i doubt they're faring better.

We knew he was a very powerful guy but this level of power is way too much. We are grandmasters for f*ck sake and he's killing us like newbies'

He jumped backwards to stand beside Steven who had his eyes closed and was preparing to attack. Electrical sparks were dancing in the air around them. A bluish halo was covering Steven and when he opened his eyes, Tenko saw that they were also emitting a bluish light. He looked like a thunder god.

Going at a speed faster than light, lightning the size of a tree trunk struck Bilanda at the second it was formed, blowing into smithereens his invisible space barrier he erected and blasting him away. Steven rose into the air with his hands outstretched and without giving Bilanda a second of respite he continued his attack.

Lightning bolts the size of anaconda snakes blasted continuously onto him to the point that a big crater was formed where Bilanda was blasted and it wasn't possible to see his fate as dust was raised which rendered visibility null.

The creationist whose ability was to materialize out of thin air anything of his imagination based on elemental energy finally had a window of opportunity to act. A massive hammer came knocking down repeatedly on the crater, generating a tremor who brought down what was left of the remaining standing walls of the large corridor.

For a moment, everything was calm. The 4 remaining warriors were wondering if they had him at last.

The dust cleared up and Bilanda stood there silently, his outfits tattered, revealing his part of his body under with small red bruises.

He thought 'I'm wasting time, if I can't finish them fast enough Gary will leave. Nobody is coming, where are my men? Are they all death? These lots aren't the only ones then. They probably split up... and Emily...hmm Quentin.'

Finishing his inner monologue, he made 3 rapid cutting gestures which produced 3 spacial distortion blades.

The fire ball man trying to run from it found out he couldn't move fast enough. A massive cut directly gushed out from his chest and blood splashed out.

Then he disappeared and instantly appeared in front of the thunder elemental, holding his neck.

"Enough" Bilanda heard a deep calm voice. Looking up, he immediately recognized the source, Quentin has arrived.

"I lost enough of my men tonight, any more and I will really have to get angry. You know me pretty well enough when I get angry Onana, Let's have a small chat"
