Chapter 111 Adam Vs Three Rounds

As the battle between Adam and Rounds raged on, Janet stood behind Stannard and Isaac, keeping watch on Ralph in case he did something. Suddenly, she saw a group of soldiers slowly approaching.

"DON'T COME CLOSE! YOU'LL DIE!" she shouted, hoping to ward them off. But one of the soldier captains replied, "But! We can't let the Rounds fight alone!"

Janet scoffed at the comment. "You're just a burden! Don't interfere!" she yelled, knowing that the soldiers would only worsen the situation.

Just then, Ralph appeared from afar, wielding his powerful whip. His sudden presence startled the soldiers, who scrambled to prepare for battle.

"I will be your opponent, come forward," Ralph challenged.

Without hesitation, the soldiers attacked Ralph with various amnis, there was also a soldier who was trying to activate their god's blessing. However, Ralph's whip was faster and deadlier than they had expected. In seconds, Ralph killed dozen of soldiers, the soldiers immediately losing their heads in a second.

"I think I don't need to use my god's blessing here," Ralph said.

Although Janet had been prepared for an attack, she was still shocked by the outcome. Now, she should focus on both of them.

Adam, who easily attacked Stannard, began to underestimate his abilities,

"Hehe, so weak. I am glad we are not having a 1v1 fight. Because I can easily beat you in no time."

A shard of ice quickly shot through Adam's ankle. The moment it hit the ground, the ice traveled until it froze his ankle.

Looking at the source of the ice shot, it was Isaac's god's blessing; he used it silently, so the ice wasn't strong enough to freeze his entire leg but could give a sudden attack to Adam. It was enough to make Adam stumble and give Stannard a chance to attack him.

Adam deliberately dropped his body to avoid Stannard's shield push. Stannard wasn't stupid enough to fall for that, so he canceled his attack in the middle, and used his sword to stab Adam vertically. As Adam dropped his body, he kicked Stannard's entire body with his right leg. Isaac's frozen leg was strong enough to allow him to adjust his position quickly.

"UGH!"

'So strong, he can kick me that far. Even though his body is no bigger than Odbert's,'

Stannard was thrown back, but not too far.

Isaac coated his sword with some clean mud, and then he slashed his weapon towards Adam; as the mud shot towards Adam, the mud turned into sharp ice instantly.

'Just before the mud shot out of his sword, the mud turned to ice, along with a small section of his sword. His god's blessing probably; to cool the surrounding area,' Adam thought.

Using his hands, Adam hit his icy leg; his leg broke and was bleeding. He immediately somersaulted backwards and ran to avoid the icy slush that Isaac had shot. On the last piece of ice, he kicked it with his injured foot. As a result, his injured foot is being frozen, but now he uses the ice to stop the bleeding and get a good foothold.

"That was great! Just what I expected from the Rounds," Adam said.

Isaac and Stannard gathered around, followed by Janet, who decided to also fight Adam.

"Come on, give me some excitement!" shouted Adam.

The Rounds didn't speak to each other, but it was as if they already understood each other's intentions.

Stannard made his way to the forefront, with Janet and Isaac closely following behind him. They immediately split up in different directions, with Janet sprinting towards Stannard's left and Isaac to his right. In one swift motion, Stannard jumped as high as he could and passed Adam, landing behind him.

Acting quickly, Janet unsheathed her rapier, activated an amnis, and conjured several fiery balls before unleashing them towards Adam. Meanwhile, Isaac was unleashing his own attacks in the form of ice blasts. Adam struggled to dodge the onslaught of attacks from both sides.

Janet then launched a fierce attack from Adam's right, forcing him to turn in that direction to defend himself. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Isaac immediately attacked from Adam's left flank. Stannard followed closely behind, lying in wait to ambush him.

"Should I help you?" asked Ralph.

"No need, don't interrupt my fun!" shouted Adam excitedly.

His enthusiasm and smile made Stannard's blood boil, as he felt Adam was still underestimating them when he had been cornered like that.

Stannard jumped up and dived at Adam, readying his sword and shield. Adam then extended his chains again, aiming at the ground a little far away from him. He immediately pulled his body with the chain afterward, so he managed to dodge Stannard's attack.

Adam quickly used the chain in his other hand. He shot the pointed-sharp chain from his armacar. Quickly, the chain shot towards Stannard. Stannard tried to block it with his shield, but Adam intentionally missed from the start. His aim was the ground behind Stannard. Skillfully, while dodging the shots of ice and fire, he jumped high and pulled himself down when he reached the top.

-WUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSH

With incredible speed, he managed to kick the shield that was covering Stannard's body.

-BREAK -SPLASH

The kick was strong enough to cause Stannard's body to bleed. His hands were broken, and his legs also made it difficult to hold his body. Because of the force, the palace floor that Stannard was standing on was also destroyed.

"One is over," said Adam.

Stannard then muttered:

"Abare: Temperantia."

Stannard's shield glowed, the light taking the form of another shield in front of him,

-BAM

The shield-shaped light pushed Adam like an explosion, and Adam was thrown far up.

"Wh-what's going on?" said Adam when he realized he was looking at the sky. His body was in free fall. Adam twisted his body in the sky.

And from below, icy thorns were waiting for Adam.

"God Blessing: Ice Arrows" dozens of sharp ice arrows shot at Adam. Adam covered his front with his hands, but it was useless; each ice attack froze into his veins.

But it still didn't kill Adam, it made him unable to move.

'My hands are frozen! I can't extend my chain!; Adam thought. Adam looked down; Janet was drawing an advanced fire amnis above her.

"Spirit who gives blessings to humans, gather your power and explode the sinners in front of me," as she chanted her amnis, the fireball in front of her amnis circle grew bigger and bigger until it was as big as a house.

"Exploding Sun," the huge fireball shot upwards.

Adam was now in freefall with a massive fireball in front of him. Falling from the air made him unable to run anywhere; if anything, he had to use his chains to pull him somewhere.

He looked at the flames before him, wondering how he would survive being hit by that thing. And at that moment, he smiled with great joy.

"HAHAHAHAHA," he laughed.

"Crazy guy, he's going to die soon with that," said Stannard, whose wound was now frozen by Isaac.

In the midst of his laughter, Adam thought,

"Oooh this heat; I haven't felt the tension between life and death in a long time!"

After that, he shouted

"ABARE: LIGANS!"

Before he can do anything, Adam goes into the fireball, and as soon as he is inside, Janet splits the amnis circle.

-BAAAAAM

The fireball broke apart, becoming an explosion of magma that leaped to the ground.

"It's over," Janet muttered.

"Oooh, is she dead? Then it's my turn," said Ralph.

After a few seconds, a piece of lava caught their attention. It appeared denser than the rest and was falling in a round, comet-like shape. The group watched in silence as the comet crashed onto the floor, leaving a deep, damaging imprint in its wake.

"He can't be alive, right?" Isaac spoke first, breaking the silence. However, before anyone could respond, the sound of chains clanking filled the air, emanating from the fireball.

The group watched in fear as a fiery explosion erupted from the ball, and out of it emerged Adam. He had chain marks imprinted all over his body.

"H-He's still alive?!" Sannard exclaimed, surprised.

"He used his armarac's rampage skill to envelop his entire body in chains. That may have avoided the explosion, but he should be dead from the heat he felt all over!" Janet reasoned.

A few seconds later...

Adam jumped up from there, his shirt already on fire, allowing everyone to see all the burns caused by his chains.

"Hahahahaha.... HAHAHAHAHA... I really thought I was going to die." Adam said.

...

Arthur guided Norman and Clarissa on the way to where the king was resting.

"AARRGH! CAN'T YOU RUN FASTER?!" Norman asked Arthur.

"I'm sorry, this is already the fastest."

"So slow! I can still go faster even while carrying this fatso! I'll leave you if you slow down!" shouted Norman.

"Fa-fa-fa-fatso?!"

As they ran, Norman became curious about how Arthur's blessing worked, which he thought was one of the reasons why Ivaylo had put him in Dolls.

"Hey Arthur. You want to replace someone, right? With your god's blessing, that should be easy. Why did you have to get into the Dolls to do it?"

'I can't say I'm too scared to refuse Leader's invitation,' Arthur thought.

But Arthur already had an answer to that question,

"That kid I'm looking for, he's a bit weird," Arthur said.

"What do you mean?"

"My god's blessing is not to see others through walls, but to see the mana that flows. The mana flows according to the body's shape, including the hair. So I can more or less see the silhouette of the person behind the wall."

"You have said that before! So why didn't you look for that kid by yourself?! Didn't you see that kid's appearance, his mana before?!"

"No... I've seen him, but not his mana."

"HUH?! DON'T BEAT AROUND THE BUSH! JUST EXPLAIN!"

"That kid... From the moment I met him, I couldn't see the mana inside him at all. He was empty, like he had no mana at all."
