An Extra’s POV
chapter-471

Steam scattered all around the area, and the shattered marble tiles was the least of anyone's concerns.

The eyes on both sides only looked at the parties who stood opposite each other.

The first—Jet and Lux—had resolute expressions on their faces as they faced off against the more enraged Sebas.

The air was electrifying, and many just shivered at the sight of the two sides battling. While many wanted to stop the conflict, there wasn't much anyone could do in a battle between Heroic Rank Adventurers.

After a couple seconds of silence, with both parties staring at each other, Sebas made his move.

~FWWUUSH!~

His body became coated in condensed Light Magic, and the area around him trembled as a result.

Even debris began floating all around him as a recognition of his majesty.

He discarded his old blade and created another by condensing light. This weapon was concentrated Mana personified, and it oozed with sheer destructive capabilities.

Without waiting for any notice, he dashed forward, his wielded blade in hand.

~BOOOM!~

The ground shattered upon his departure, and like a flash of golden light, he instantly traversed the distance between himself and the two parties.

Once again, Lux attempted to use her Blank Wall, but Sebas easily countered by making several light constructs all over the vicinity.

There was no way the Blank Wall could protect them from all directions.

However, instead of Lux losing concentration and halting her defenses, Jet went ahead and launched himself into the air, swiftly destroying all the constructs in a whirlwind of ferocious power.

Thanks to this, Sebas was stopped at point-blank range, unable to take a single step forward to slay his enemies.

Before he could make his next move, Lux pushed her hand forward, creating a pulse of concentrated wind that pushed Sebas from his torso.

"Ack!" Unlike the last push, this one was incredibly dense and painful, forcing him to even cough up blood.

As a result, his body was propelled backwards.

While in midair, Jet appeared right overhead—covered in purple lightning—with his blade raised and energy dancing around it.

"Tch!" Adonis sent a pure light blast above him, bursting through the air and consuming his foe.

However…

A shield of wind shrouded Jet, most likely the courtesy of Lux.

Thanks to this, he was able to advance in his attack and send another burst of powerful attack flying towards Sebas.

~BOOOOOOM!~

This explosion, in midair, caused a lot of riot in the area.

Both sides experienced pressure rushing from the point of impact, and once again… Jet slid back and returned to his position with Lux.

Sebas, on the other hand, landed on his knees as smoke rushed from all over his body.

He wasn't lethally damaged, but it would be a lie if anyone said he didn't take any damage from the just concluded strike.

But, just a second after his fall, he rose to his feet and wiped the grime on his face.

"Had enough?" Jet asked, his frown deepening as he stared at Sebas' unyielding form.

"Not even close!"

At that moment, all the minor and major injuries on his body began to vanish, and his ragged breaths turned normal.

He was all better in no time.

"I'll be going all-out now…" He whispered, enough for the two to hear.

"Is that so?" Jet asked with a furrowed brow. "Then I will do the same."

They both took combat stances, holding their blades with incredible skill. It seemed unfair that this was a two against one contest, but no one was complaining.

Sebas began the conflict, and he seemed to be stronger and faster than the individual abilities of the two opposing him. It was only through teamwork that they were able to keep up with, and even damage, him.

~BWUUUUSSHHH!~

An almost explosive noise rushed through the area, all of it caused by the sheer amount of Light that was bursting from Adonis at that moment.

On the other side too, Jet caused the flashes of purple lightning to increase about three-fold. The aura around his blade also felt alive, as it intensely wrapped itself around the Chaos Blade.

Both sides had both gotten a solid boost, and they were ready to charge at each other.

Naturally, Lux remained the supporter of her partner.

~FWOOOSH!~

The first attack came from her, as she launched several chains made from her Wind Magic. They were innumerable, and moved too fast for the human eye to capture.

The reason behind her attack was unknown to those who watched, but they surmised that she simply wanted to restrict Sebas' movements or slow him down so that her partner could land his own hit.

However…

~WHOOOSH!~

… None of those attacks even reached Sebas in the slightest.

He dodged every single one, rushing towards them with the palpable intent to kill.

Jet made his move at this point, closing the already shrinking distance between the two of them.

Crackles of energy filled the air as they both sent their blades crashing upon the other.

~BOOOOOOOOOM!!!~

The earth around them broke into pieces, creating a massive crater where they clashed. Unfortunately, the intense power from Sebas' side was stronger, and so Jet was pushed back, giving the man of light a chance to strike.

However, at that point, several constraints of wind rose from underneath him and restricted his movements.

It seemed Lux was waiting for the time when he was least mobile to strike, and all the initial chains were mere distractions.

With Sebas' movements restricted, but not completely stopped, his actions became just a little slower, allowing Jet the chance to counterattack.

But—

~WHOOSH!~

A sudden silhouette rushed from Sebas' camp, darting swiftly towards the only vulnerable party in the fight.

The world took pause as all eyes fell on Britta as she charged at Lux.

Her blade was unsheathed, and her eyes were filled with the resolve to end the woman's life.

It was checkmate.
