While Max and Leticia were rushing over, Haory was seething with rage. She poured her mana into her spell unreservedly and the Black spear started to take shape.
Belén and Rima looked down where he crash landed after being hit. However they could only see the sand and dust flying around.
Swoosh!
Suddenly, from the dust cloud, Bilaz shot out towards Haory. His clothes were torn and his stony body had some faint crack marks. He had a dark, murderous look on his face now.
Given how arrogant and cold blooded he was, it was completely normal for him to have bloodlust for Haory after being attacked and injured by her.
Although her sand spikes did injure him, they were only minor injuries. But the reason he was furious because of the pain he felt from these small injuries.
In an instant, he was in front of Haory once again and because she was in the middle of spell casting, she didn't have the ability to handle his attack.
She couldn't cancel her casting because if she did, she would have to bear the backlash. Therefore, the only option was to dodge his punch by moving her body, however she didn't have time to do so.
"Go to hell. Dirty bitch!" Bilaz shouted with a savage look on his face and punched at her chest with his full strength.
If the punch landed, she most probably would die given how powerful he was.
"Not on my watch." Belén who had been casting her spell shouted and her special vines that were very resilient, flexible and powerful, formed a shield in front of Haory.
BANG!!
Bilaz's punch crashed into the vine shield and her vines that even the peak stage two-star bull had to exert a lot of power to break, were blasted apart.
"Ugh...!"
After breaking the shield, his punch landed on Haory's chest. She instantly spurted out a mouthful of blood and flew back. Her internal organs were damaged.
Bilaz turned to glare at Belén who foiled his plan to kill Haory and sneered "You are quite strong to be able to reduce 80% power of my punch huh. However, these vines of yours must take a lot of mana right? Let's see how many more can you conjure up to save her."
Finishing his statement, he chased after Haory who was thrown on the ground.
She was lying on her chest and blood was coming out of her mouth.There were some small cuts on her exposed skin which were the result of her body scraping against the tree branches when she was thrown down.
She looked at Bilaz who was jumping from the trees and towards her to attack again. Her face didn't show any dread.
She glanced at Belén who nodded after understanding what she was planning and poured her mana to conjure more vines to assist her.
Meanwhile, Bilaz punched at Haory once again.
Bang!!
Another Vine shield appeared in front of Haory and completely blocked his punch before it was broken apart.
The reason her shield was able to protect Haory wasn't because he used less strength in this punch than the first one but because Belén had used more mana and made it tougher.
Bang!
Bang!
...
He continued punching at Haory and Belén continued expanding her mana to make more shield to block him from hitting her.
After a few more exchanges, Belén's face was starting to turn pale as her mana was depleting rapidly.
Rima who had been watching Bilaz trying to kill Haory, finally made up her mind and started casting her spell.
Just as Bilaz was about to crush Belén's last vine shield and attack Haory, Rima shouted "Haory."
Haory heard her quickly covered her ears. Bilaz frowned seeing this and instinctively turned to look at Rima, who had opened her mount and used her sonic spell.
Bang!
Completely unguarded, he was hit with her spell head on. His eardrums ruptured as blood started pouring out of them. His mind buzzed and he stood stunned in his place.
Normally after stunning their enemies, Belén would use her vines to restrict them. However, she no longer had any mana left in her mana core.
She could only look at Haory who had a ruthless expression on her face as she glared at Bilaz.
Her face was even paler than Belén's as if all her power has been drained. However she didn't panic and pointed at Bilaz while saying "Go!"
Whoosh!
Suddenly a black spear dove down from above the tree canopy.
Even after being hit by him and spitting out blood, Haory hadn't stopped casting her spell and made sure to hid it among tree branches to take him off guard.
Fortunately for her, Bilaz was fanatically trying to kill her and he didn't notice the spear at all.
Just before he was about to be struck by the black spear, he regained his senses and became horrified after feeling the frightening aura of the black spear.
He was sure that only death would await him if this spear hit him.
"Haaaa!!" He shouted and used a large portion of his mana on his legs before stomping on the ground and hastily jumping to the side.
BANG!!!
When he was only a meter away, the black Metallic spear struck heavily on the place where he was standing until now.
The impact was so strong that group cracked and earth and stones flew around and a powerful shockwave was generated.
"Fuck!" Bilaz had just sighed in relief when he was hit by the shockwave and was thrown like a shooting star, crashing and breaking many trees.
"Huff... Huff..." Haory breathed heavily while letting out a disappointed sigh. Despite how fast she acted, he was still able to regain his senses in time and dodged the spear.
Sigh!
Belén also sighed while looking toward the place Bilaz was thrown at. 'Are we going to die here?'
Now both she and Haory were out of mana while Rima didn't have capabilities to fight an opponent like him, they were almost sure to be killed by him.
"Hahahahaha..." While they were losing hope, a mad laughter echoed in the surroundings.
Crash!
Bilaz kicked the broken tree atop him and stood up. Blood was flowing down from his mouth. Apparently, the shockwave injured him.
He took out a healing pill and ate it. Seeing their grim faces, he laughed and slowly walked towards them "I didn't expect you guys to have such strength. I'm impressed. However, now that all of you are helpless. I'll make sure to torture you enough before taking your lives. Hahaha."
Swish!
Suddenly, Rima jumped down and landed ten meters in front of him. She opened her mouth to cast her sonic spell once more while taking out a short sword.
She knew that she wasn't strong enough. But she wasn't willing to see her comrades die in front of her.
Therefore, she decided to risk her life to kill him. After fighting for so long, he must be exhausted too. So she still had a chance.
"Rima! Don't!" Both Haory and Belén shouted at the same time. However, it was too late.
Bang!
Bilaz had punched in her stomach before she could cast her spell. Unlike when Haory was punched by him, Rima didn't have a shield to lessen the strength of his punch.
She immediately spit out large mouthfuls of blood and her ears, nose and eyes also started bleeding.
Crash!
She flew threw the air and crashed heavily on the ground and stopped moving.
"Rima...!" Both Haory and Belén shouted and their eyes became bloodshot.
