Hero Of Darkness

Chapter 267: The Teamwork

The three men who were encircled by the opposition quickly decided to act on the situation and finally revealed their strengths of peak grandmasters which caught the opponents off guard. 

There was no insurmountable pressure released or any grand super-saiyan burst of aura moves by the three tigers who were choosing to be the prey for reasons unknown. 

They specifically targeted the members of their opponent team without letting the audience feel any changes in themselves. But even with the aura they released, the opponents got a gist of who they were fighting against. 

Now, what remained was how the three combatants were going to take down the enemy without revealing too many of their skills and combat techniques. 

“You two fight like you always do. I’ll take down the weak links first.” said Kahn. 

The brothers weren’t even surprised to find that Kahn was on the same level as them. But they were already used to facing other peak grandmasters so both of them didn’t mind it either. 

“Just don’t get yourself caught in a pinch. We might not be able to help on time.” said Niklaus. 

“Alright, go! I’ll support you both.” spoke Elijah and cast a yellow mana shield around all three of them. 

The next second, he cast a root vine spell that created hundreds of massive and thorny vines coming out of the ground. These vines quickly covered them from all the sides in a 20 meters radius, creating a wall of defense but only leaving the front side open. 

[Leading the enemy by the nose.. These guys are good.] thought Kahn as he quickly understood the strategy. 

Since they were outnumbered and the enemy side didn’t have any assassins, making them come to you one by one in an enclosed space with just one opening would provide them offense and defense at the same time. 

“Go!” spoke Elijah and Kahn dashed out of the encirclement from the opening. Niklaus quickly covered the 5 meter wide entrance as he prepared to face the incoming battleaxe wielder and one fire mage. 

In mere moments, both of his swords released a burst of fire and made a revving sound. The claw-like edges on his swords turned bright red as if they were heated to extremely high temperature. 

A red aura leaked from his body as he pointed the left sword towards both the enemies and asked with a smirk. 

“So which one of you wants to be roasted alive?” 

—————-

On the other side of the vine wall, Kahn had successfully approached the enemies from the left side and his opponent was a peak master rank archer. 

Shoot! Swoosh! 

Kahn used the Side Hopper skill after half a year and successfully evaded the numerous arrow strike skills from the enemy. 

Since Kahn couldn’t openly use his S Rank skills or Saint rank skills related to swordsmanship, he was using the basic movement skills like the side hopper, one he frequently used in the past. 

Boom!! 

Multiple explosions happened wherever the arrows landed as Kahn sprinted towards his target while evading and parrying the arrows from the opponent. 

And just as soon as he came 10 meters close to the target, Kahn’s greatsword shone bright blue with sparks coming out of it. 

Lightning Flash! 

He made a lightning elemental slash attack towards the opponent when he was caught off guard. 

ZAP!! 

The archer was zapped after getting struck by this strike and fainted on the spot. His straight and electrocuted hair stood like tall grass. 

But instead of feeling victorious, Kahn quickly dashed towards the healer of the opponent side. 

Niklaus on the other end launched multiple swirling sword aura blades made of fire elemental and burst attacks towards their opponents. 

Elijah quickly casts a sleeping and stun spell on the mage opponent simultaneously while Niklaus faced the battleaxe wielder head-on using this opportunity. 

BOOM! 

Just as Kahn was about to reach midway towards the healer, an ice spear landed in between the path and the second mage of their group revealed himself. 

The beginner rank grandmaster mage cast dozens of ice elemental spells and launched a volley of spikes, spear and AoE skills. 

Bang! Shrill! Clang! 

Kahn attacked with lightning flash and windcutter skill as he rolled sideways to avoid the last AoE attack that would’ve frozen him on the spot. 

He then jumped high up in the air and launched himself towards the mage who was in the middle of chanting his next spell. 

But as soon as he looked at the somersaulting enemy, he was paralyzed on the spot after Kahn’s eyes flickered yellow. 

ZAP!! 

Kahn zapped this mage as well by using Executioner’s Gaze and knocked him out.

The healer quickly cast a holy shield and then a protection barrier around herself. Because they just went from being the hunter to becoming the prey. 

As soon as three members of their team were taken out, they’d lose the match. 

BANG!! SHING!! 

Kahn used two waves of lightning flash skill and quickly broke the barrier and holy shield in succession. 

Swoosh! 

But before the healer could recover from the backlash of getting her skills destroyed, Kahn suddenly appeared behind her and spoke in a menacing voice. 

“Owari da..” 

Zapped! The female healer was zapped the next moment and smoke came out of her mouth as her black hair stood straight like Vegeta. 

“My power level is over 9,000.” spoke Kahn. 

DING! DING! 

“The first team has won the match!” declared the announcer. 

“Whoa!” 

“Awesome!!” 

“What a fight!!” 

Nearly three hundred thousand people who paid attention to their match cheered in support as soon as Kahn, Elijah and Niklaus won the match by taking down the 3 opponents from the enemy team. 

Kahn walked toward the duo of brothers who was also close to taking down their opponents; just that Kahn was faster. 

“You’re welcome.” he said. 

“Hmph! You were fighting three weaklings while we faced two grandmasters, one of whom was an intermediate rank. 

Fighting both of them without using our most powerful skills was much harder. So no need to brag.” spoke Niklaus as he put both of his swords on the back. 

To his retort, Kahn only replied with a smile.. 

“I missed the part where that’s my problem.”
