Chapter 426 - Theo And Ava
"We're surrounded," Theo muttered while his clone returned to his side, protecting his back.
Ava widened her eyes as she realized it was her mistake. She quickly leaped to Theo's side with an apologetic face.
However, Theo never blamed her because if his brother didn't send Ava, he would have gone through this alone. This accident just showed him he had grown accustomed to having Ava around to warn him, proving that he had relied on her too much.
Theo took a deep breath as his expression turned grim, roughly counting the enemies. "There are twenty wolves or something…"
Ava's body shook as she glanced at Theo a few times, not daring to see his face.
"This is going to be a brutal fight," Theo said before smiling from ear to ear in excitement. "Still, this is the first time I am fighting this many wolves at once."
The wolves were riled up by Theo's bloodlust and fighting intent and heard him saying, "Ava, we're going to kill them all. Watch my movement."
Although the wolves didn't understand what Theo was saying, they were offended by his bloodlust alone and the leader howled. "Aoooo!"
In an instant, the wolves charged at them.
Theo raised his hand as the dust started rising into the air despite the wet ground. If he fought against humans, they would have realized something like this wasn't supposed to happen and confirmed it was just an illusion. But he was fighting wolves right now.
The wolves only thought Theo and Ava were inside the smoke and all they needed to do was kill them.
Unfortunately, Theo already grabbed Ava and used his Blink to leave the smoke, resulting in the wolves crashing into each other.
Theo reappeared with Ava and his clone, a hundred feet away from them.
The wolves obviously recognized his change and turned around, chasing him. But the ten wolves that crashed needed time to recover.
Things had gone according to his plan as they weren't surrounded anymore and they only needed to focus on the wolves behind them.
Seeing ten wolves chased after him, Theo used his Telekinesis to lift the huge trunk destroyed by Ava earlier, smashing it to the wolves.
"Aoo—" The wolves were shocked and jumped up to avoid it, albeit two on the right couldn't see it coming. Their bodies were hit by the trunk and rolled on the ground, struggling to get up.
With only eight of them left, Theo and his clone released forty Magic Bullets at the same time. There was a reason why he didn't utilize all the illusions to make more Magic Bullets. He had yet to be able to control all of them at the same time.
The Magic Bullets flew to the right and turned left two times to loop around the wolves. After that, some of them flew upward while some had another turn to confuse them.
Theo utilized his Force Control to the limit before using his tracking to aim at the wolves.
Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
A series of explosions occurred as the wolves never saw them coming.
Two of them died, while the rest only got small injuries. Theo took that chance to come closer, finishing the one with the most wounds.
Clone Theo also followed his movement.
Not wanting to disappoint Theo again, Ava chased after him.
The wolves leaped toward them, but Ava and Theo managed to overpower them, blowing them away.
At this time, the ten wolves that hit each other had recovered and come to the real Theo.
"Grr!" Three wolves jumped straight at him.
"Three Great Defense." Three tombstones channeled the energy to form a big shield, stopping the wolves' charge. He then activated the shield from his ring, making a protective screen on his right.
Two more wolves hit the shield with their heads.
They didn't stop there. Theo needed to wave his spear to stop another three wolves coming from behind.
"Kyu!" Ava panicked for a second when she saw Theo was under the relentless onslaught. Even his clone started moving to help him.
However, little did the two know the wolves had been aiming at them and made their appearance from behind.
"Tsk." Clone Theo clicked his tongue as a wolf scratched his back, launching him forward.
Ava also experienced the same thing as she was launched in Clone Theo's direction.
When they were about to collapse, Theo saw Ava in his direction and rotated his spear, making a smile before he disappeared.
"!!!" Ava widened her eyes when she saw the floating spear before her. She remembered Theo told her to watch his movement and this spear was the sign of trust he had.
She opened all her feet wide and caught the spear with her body. Because Theo had rotated it and positioned it to match Ava's movement, Ava could wield this spear as soon as she touched it.
She spun her body around, resulting in the spear following her body's movement and the spear's blade on top of her body moving downwards.
What Theo wanted for her was to kill the wolf that hit his clone with this spear. So, she channeled her lightning to the handle and ultimately to the blade, hitting the wolf and splitting it into two.
"Kyu!" Ava's heart skipped a beat as she was excited to do what Theo wanted her to do.
At the same time, the spear rose a few inches as Theo's voice echoed in her ears. "Good work. Keep it up."
"Kyu!" Ava smiled as she held onto the spear while Clone Theo waved it to the right.
The moment Theo tilted his spear, Ava knew she needed to jump, especially after seeing a wolf in front of her.
She released her lightning again and used the force of Theo's swing to launch her to the wolf, faster than it expected.
"Kyu!" Ava kicked the wolf's belly and used her lightning to obliterate it. She continued flying until she crashed into the tree, destroying it. Even so, Ava used that tree as her foothold and leaped into the air, assessing the battle situation.
Clone Theo just overpowered the wolf and crushed its head with all his strength as another wolf came at him from another direction.
Theo only glanced at the wolf before the latter fell down with Ava landing on top of him. He quickly thrust his spear to the wolf's head, killing it in an instant.
"Good work." Clone Theo smiled and leaped to help his real body.
That praise somehow excited Ava as she felt she could release more than a hundred percent of her power in this situation. "Kyu!"
