Chapter 89 89: Time to skewer a beast!
"Yikes! I was running away from you earlier, but who knew I'd end up facing the very beast I was trying to escape from?"
Licht turned around to see the red haired human walking towards him casually while his hair was dancing around in the wind while the beast stood glaring at him.
"Human Grey?!" Licht said.
"Grey would be just fine, thank you." Grey scoffed and then he turned towards the beast. "I won't allow you to kill Licht as it is me that has the right to."
"You want to kill me? Haha! How delusional can you be?" Licht said with a chuckle when a light sword appeared in each of his hands.
"I will burn you to a crisp but now's not the time." Grey said as his left hand began blazing hot. "For now, I need to burn that beast down!"
And then he fired a thin stream of fire towards the Echidas that moved aside avoiding it. But then, a thin needle of light shot toward it. The beast opened its mouth and launched a fireball, dispersing the needle and creating a thick cloud of smoke.
Then out of the smoke, a dozen wind blades were seen flying towards the beast and in a split second, it began running around avoiding it while the blades crashed into trees slicing it up.
'Huh? My wind magic has also grown stronger?' he thought as he looked at his hands.
"Now's not the time to be admiring how strong you have become, you silly human!" Licht shouted as he was seen speeding towards the beast and then he swung his sword from the side towards it but it jumped away but it quickly turned around to see a light spear heading its way.
Swinging its paws, it broke it apart but then several fireballs were seen coming at the beast and it shot out countless fireballs at the incoming fireballs and they cancelled each other out with more smoke appearing in front of the beast.
Before it could move, a huge sword made of light pierced through the thick cloud of smoke and crashed into the beast, sending it hitting a tree behind it, breaking it totally.
But that was not all. From above, a huge boulder was seen hanging over the beast and in a flash, it was seen heading towards the beast who jumped away avoiding it and then it saw several spikes appearing from the ground trying to pierce it but as usual, it was quick on its feet as it jumped around avoiding it.
"Grey! Move back!" Licht shouted.
"I still need to hold the beast down for whatever you want to do though." Grey said as a stream of lightning left his hands and slammed into the beast before it could do anything. "No matter how fast you are, lightning is still much faster."
"Now!" Licht said and then his golden hair began floating more above his shoulder as his eyes began shining bright light. 'I need more time.' he thought as he could see the beast twitching.
"I will buy you more time!" Grey shouted as he was seen speeding towards the beast using his lightning magic to aid him and when he got close, Earth surrounded his hand forming a type of earth gauntlet on his hand while the tip was sharp and pointy.
Swinging his hand forward, he was about to slam it into the beast when a blur suddenly appeared in his vision while his fist hit the air causing a bang to be heard but there was no weight behind his hit.
"Mana!" He said as he turned around to see a dozen fireballs heading his way. "Shit! Earth magic! Earth wall!" He called out and a wall was lifted in front of him taking the hit from the fireballs.
But there was no follow up attack so he quickly let the wall down fearing the worst and then he could see the beast speeding towards a still standing Licht.
"Darn it!" Licht said and then in his hand, the long snaky whip appeared in his hand as he quickly sped away from the beast who had already swung its paws out and then swinging his hand, the whip moved fast destroying more trees and was coming at the beast but it kept avoiding it.
Then from the side, dozen spears appeared flying towards the beast as it tried to avoid the whip and spears at the same time when coming from below were Earth spikes and from above were wind blades.
"Let's see how you are going to avoid all these!" Grey shouted as the attacks were about to hit so looking up, it shot out fireballs towards the wind blades breaking them apart and for the whip, it quickly grabbed it by the tip again and swung Licht out of the air while it jumped up avoiding the spears and spikes.
"Damn! Not again!" Licht said as he coughed out blood.
"You can't dodge well while in mid air!" Grey said and then several lightning bolts appeared all around him. Throwing his hand forward they all flew at incredible speed towards the Echidas who impressively dodged everything before it sped back down towards Grey who stunned by the speed from the beast.
And it was seen swinging its paws when a bright light appeared in its field of vision blinding it for a second and then from the side, a heavy hit hit the beast sending it skidding away from Grey while it roared in anger.
And then Licht was seen with his hands outwardly while panting hard. "That was close one." He mumbled then he saw the beast getting ready to move.
"We need more backup and I need more time to prepare a big attack if we want to take care of the beast." Licht said.
"And that's why we are here!" He heard a voice saying from above and descending from above were Charla, Langris and old man Jankis.
"Took you guys long enough." Grey shouted.
"But now we are here so be grateful." Langris said.
"So it's time to skewer this beast to bits." Charla said as long vines began sprouting out from the ground while the branches from the trees began moving around and so did a huge gust of wind spread out surrounding old man Jankis and finally, a dozen light swords appeared all around Langris.
