New Life Online 278 Thunderborn

"WHAT?! I'm surprised!" Uhmmm is this really their King? It feels like he's always surprised for some reason.

"I'm surprised. I thought there's no need for me to fight but it looks like my dumb guards are so slow to fight a group of humans that moves so fast. I'm surprised." The King said.

"I'm sorry." The apologetic boss said.

"*Spit* Stop apologizing! *Spit*" The spitting boss angrily said.

"I'm surprised. You're supposed to be my guards and I just protected you. I'm surprised." The king said with dismay.

I know that this is not the time to be impressed but I can feel that he's really overpowered. I don't think we can defeat him with what we have right now. It feels like even if my whole guild attacks him, we still won't stand a chance.

"Now, I'll show you the power of a KING! I will be surprised! GWAAAAAAAH!" What?! His enmity is so d.a.m.n intense! His aura alone is making us s.h.i.+ver and even the earth itself shows how strong the this King.

"Scy..." Akko? I checked her and... what?! She's kneeling and weak! The King's aura is making her weak that she was forced to kneel! How about...

"Don't worry about me... I can still... ugh..." Zia can't take the pressure as well!

"LIZARD KING'S WATER BLAST!" An attack without warning?! He's aiming for Akko! It's too late for me to help her!

"ULTIMATE LIGHT s.h.i.+ELD!" She did her best to create a s.h.i.+eld and was able to block it but...

*CRACKS!* It broke her s.h.i.+eld and she was pushed back by the attack! The power of his attack got significantly reduced by her light s.h.i.+eld but the impact made her thrown away! I need to stop her from hitting the trees!

"FIRE BOOSTER!"

*CATCH* I did my best to catch up and I was able to save her, stopping her from getting injured but... she already lost consciousness...

"Wake up, Akko, wake up!" This is bad, she really pa.s.sed out because she used a lot of mana to attack the apologetic boss and now she used her remaining mana to stop the King's attack.

"LIZARD KING'S POWER BLAST!" What?!

"KYAAAAH!" Oh no! Zia! She was. .h.i.t by the boss frontal attack with his knuckle but she was able to defend by creating a s.h.i.+eld!

"Huff... Huff... Don't underestimate me! LIMIT!"

*BOOOOOOOOM!*

"ACK!" She tried to use her limit break but it was too late! The King's hand exploded with water burst destroying her s.h.i.+eld and knocking her away!

"ZIIIAAA!" GRRRR! You'll pay for this! Zia's out as well. Ugh!

"I'm surprised. You're their leader yet you can't protect them. All you do is tell them what to do. You don't have the power to be their leader. I'm surprised." Ugh... he's quite right. My negative charisma is the only thing that protects me from his hostility. My enmity makes me stand up against monsters' terrible aura. Without it, I'm the first one who should have pa.s.sed out.

"I tell them what to do because I trust their abilities. They might be more powerful than me but don't underestimate me." I replied.

"I'm surprised. The girl almost used her limit break. I don't want that happening on my island. How about you? What can you do without your girls? I'm surprised." What can I do?

I admit that without them, I will never reach what I achieved but it doesn't mean that I can't do it myself. My whole life, I was alone. My whole life I didn't ask for anyone's help because... wait... what am I saying? Ugh... my head! It hurts...

"I'm surprised. We're not even fighting yet and you are already losing your mind." *Heavy breathing* What was that? Another dream? Whatever... I have to concentrate and focus.

"I'm surprised. I don't think you have what it takes to even face me so I'll let my guards handle you and watch you get killed by them. Be careful now, your girls are not with you anymore." I guess it won't be easy for me...

"Then I guess I don't have a choice. Let me just put both my friends to a safe place and you can do whatever you want with me." I replied and so I started putting them in a safe place.

"*Spit* Sure, it doesn't really matter. *Spit* You're all still going to die. *Spit*" The spitting guard replied.

"I'm sorry." Can't he say something other than I'm sorry?

***

I tried to buy some time to check if they can wake up but it looks like they're really enjoying their nap. Both of them got one shot by the boss, it didn't kill them but enough to catch them off guard and deliver a ma.s.sive blow. Can I really win against both of them?

"*Spit* Now stop wasting our time and show us what you really got. *Spit*" I don't know why he spits a lot but I need to slice his long mouth soon.

"I'm sorry." Yeah yeah...

"Kyut, are you ready?" I asked thunderbird as she's my best option against them by making me quicker and giving me accurate attacks.

"I'm always ready and call me s.e.xy, will you?" Uhmmm... I don't think it's necessary but ok, s.e.xy, give me your best shot. Unlike the King, these guys can't one shot me unless it's a ma.s.sive attack. I need to be careful or we'll all die here.

"THUNDERBIRD'S WRATH! Now let's see how light my feet are.

"*Spit* Making a monster soul your weapon, huh. We won't let you make us like that! *Spit* Go you big lizard! *Spit*" He ordered the apologetic boss to charge at me like it will matter. And no wants want to use a monster that spits a lot as well!

*DAs.h.!.+*

"I'M SORRY!" Woah! He's fast! When he's charging straight ahead, he can move incredibly fast! But can he catch up to me when his spitty friend there is in a pinch?

"LIGHTNING BLITZ!" I swiftly moved sideways and easily avoided the apologetic charge attack and rush towards the other boss. He's weak to physical attack so he's the first target.

"CIRCLE OF WATER!" I saw a circle of light around him and I don't know what that is. I need to be more careful.

"LIGHTNING SHOCK!" I released a low-level lightning attack towards him but...

*SWOOOs.h.!.+*

The circle of light started to s.h.i.+ne and then released water rising through the sky stopping my attack from going through him!

"I'M SORRY!" From above!

*SWOOOs.h.!.+* I was able to dodge by hopping back. He used the power of his leg to jump and reach me faster.

"I'M SORRY!" A fast wide swing!

*SWOOOOs.h.!.+* I ducked to avoid his attack and rolled away. He's getting faster. It looks like they are trying to keep up with my speed and they became faster than earlier or is it just that there are two of them now against just me. Not to mention, they are really trying to fight seriously this time and I can't find an opening. With the spitting lizard's magic water s.h.i.+eld and tough skin of the apologetic boss, there's no way my attack could even hit them. Now that the spitting lizard is using what he got to not make me reach him or even hit him with my magic attacks, what's my next move?

"I'M SORRY!" He's throwing his weapon again! I need to dodge!

*SWOOOOOs.h.!.+* I successfully avoided it without any problems but wait...

*CHAIN SOUNDS* Chains?! Chains that are connected to his weapon!

"SWOOOOOs.h.!.+* The boss is not on his previous position anymore! He charges towards the other side making his chains move towards me! I jumped as it's the only way to avoid the chains.

*CHAIN SOUNDS* He bounced the chains to the ground making his weapon move upwards! He knows how to fully control his chains and weapon but it's not good enough!

"LIGHTNING BLITZ!" Before his weapon could hit me, I managed to dodge using my lightning speed by creating a lighting behind me pus.h.i.+ng me forward with incredible speed.

"TAKE THIS! EARTH SHATTERING LIGHTING THUNDER!" I concentrated a large amount of mana and unleashed it towards the apologetic boss. They're not close to each other and it's good to test to see if the spitting lizard can still make magic protection when they're still far from each other.

*BOOOOOOM!* I hit him! But I can't tell if my attack worked.

"WATER PRISON! *Spit*" What?! Droplets out of nowhere appeared around me and suddenly joined together surrounding me and making me not able to move!

"LIGHTNING BL... *Shocks*" Ugh! I can't get out! My fire won't even start as well! d.a.m.n... Not in a good situation right now.

*ZWOOOOOOs.h.!.+* What?! His weapon from below started moving again! He's doing the same move as earlier by bouncing the chains! The apologetic boss took my hit so the other boss can restrict my movement. This is bad!

*SPLASH SOUNDS*

"*Spit* Did we get him?! *Spit*," The spitting lizard said.

"I don't think so... Now that I'm free, I'll show you the power of true lightning! THUNDERBORN'S WRATH! THUNDERBORN'S FLICKER FLAs.h.!.+"

They're both far from each other but in just a blink of an eye, I destroyed their defenses by attacking them with incredible speed that they didn't even know what happened. Thanks to Shade's pa.s.sive again, I was able to survive their combination attack.

"I'm surprised. It looks like I underestimated you after all. And... you're a girl now too! I'm surprised!"
