Klaus regained his normal color and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the ice on the ground. The ice had turned completely black from the man's attack.
"Such a potent attack. This guy shouldn't be allowed to touch anyone else. I better cut off his hands." Klaus said while shivering.
If not for his quick thinking, he would've been dead by now.
When the man attacked the Elemental Warrior, he didn't see it and felt it wasn't something so serious. But now that he was a victim of the attack personally, he knew that it wasn't something so easy. If not for his increased senses due to his automatic ice defense, he would've been toast.
From the color of the ice, it was clear that the man wanted to kill him with just this attack. And to be honest, if it had touched him, he would've been killed. Unless he had some miracle healing tonic.
"You piece of trash! You thought you could kill me? Keep dreaming..." Klaus yelled different insults at the man while slowly walking close to the man.
The man saw Klaus and chuckled, "I can sense you gathering ice elemental particles, I'm not a fool."
Klaus shrugged, "Can't blame me for trying."
The man attacked, not giving Klaus the opportunity he wanted.
Klaus blocked the attack coming his way. Since he was already prepared for the man, he didn't use the same technique to get close to him, rather, with the help of the other two, they started bombarding Klaus' defense.
Klaus' defense was strong, but against three people, especially when one of them was a Peak Darkness Elemental Venerable, it was hard to block out all the attacks.
The Darkness Elementalist was the main attacker while the other two attacked when Klaus' defensive wall had been broken down.
Klaus' ice defense was working full time, but it wasn't able to stop both their attacks. This time, they weren't attacking from different angles, but the same place. Not just that, but they were also attacking a slight second slower than the other. This gives the time for Klaus' defense not to be able to react to the last attack.
Klaus was hit by one of the attacks. But an ice armor made it impossible to be defeated by the duo's attacks.
"Even if you let you guys attack for the rest of the year, you still wouldn't be able to cause any harm to me."
While blocking their attacks, Klaus was still cussing at them. Infuriating his opponents was something he had grown accustomed to. And it's not always he gets to see people to abuse nonstop.
Reynolds' Elemental Warrior soon came to and rushed after the man, attacking him.
The man tried the same trick. After dodging the first attack, he wanted to use the same attack. But his palm was met with a lightning bolt that forced him back.
The Elemental Warrior didn't give him the chance to use the same attack.
The man cussed softly but didn't give in. This was why he only used this technique during the first attack. Most of the time, he gets the desired result, but whenever he doesn't, he finds it difficult to take down the opponent.
Klaus was aware of the attack, and so was the Elemental Warrior, or whoever was controlling it. There was no way he could use it against them now.
With him tied down, Klaus was given free reign on the other two Seventh stage Elemental Venerables. It didn't take long before one of them was killed.
Klaus was very efficient when he was serious. He knew there was no point wasting time, especially given Grey's situation. So he killed when the chance presented itself.
The man vanished, leaving the Elemental Warrior and rushing to the aid of the other man. Their subordinates were almost all completely killed in their presence, and there was nothing they could do.
Klaus created an ice dome when he saw the Darkness Elementalist's attack coming his way.
But the man disappeared and appeared inside Klaus' dome.
Klaus smiled and his thin sword appeared. The sword was so thin that it was almost unseeable. He turned around and slashed his sword at a frightening speed.
The man didn't see the sword coming, and seeing Klaus turn with a smile, he retreated hastily.
When he appeared outside the dome, he heaved a sigh of relief. Seeing Klaus react so soon showed how prepared he was for him. This was why he didn't like using the technique after using it once. But either he used it or he watched his subordinate die.
"Those palms of yours are really hateful, luckily, you have just one now." Klaus' statement shocked the man and he looked at his hands. He noticed that one of them only had from the wrist upward, his right hand to be precise.
Only his left hand was complete.
He looked at Klaus and saw a sword in his hands.
"When?" The man was taken aback.
He didn't see Klaus bringing out a sword, much less using it.
"Oh, when I created this dome, I brought out the sword, waiting for your arrival. And like the stupid dog you are, you came." Klaus explained.
Klaus was the only one who would tell his opponent how he attacked him. Well, the reason for this was just to poke fun at the man.
The man didn't think something like this was possible, and Klaus wanted to infuriate him even more.
The man gritted his teeth. The bleeding had already stopped, but it will take a while if he wants to regrow his hand.
"I have to give it to you, you're something else."
"Thank you. You're not so bad yourself with your one palm and stuff."
Klaus' reply once again almost sent the man into a frenzy.
The man calmed himself and looked at the subordinate he saved, his eyes almost popped out when he saw the Elemental Warrior cutting off his head.
He sacrificed himself and still wasn't able to keep the man alive. Not just that, but Klaus and Reynolds' Elemental Warrior could team up against him now.
