"…"

Hunter looked around while being invisible, trying to spot anything like an trap or hidden monster, but not founding anything at all.

Hunter then instantly rushed towards the flag, but as soon as she did, she swinged around her scythe, blocking the dagger that had almost stabbed her in the face.

However, after blocking the first dagger, several more daggers flew her way, forcing Hunter to use [Spear Repel] by spinning around her scythe, blocking the daggers, before then using [Dark Spear Flying Strike] to counter attack the direction where the daggers came from.

"…"

"!"

But then more daggers flew from the completely opposite direction, forcing Hunter to leap out of the way before then rushing in and trying to slash the air, only for the air to counterattack and stop the scythe in place.

Few moments later, an figure emerged from the thing air, an person in the cloak who was holding two daggers that were holding back the scythe.

"There you are bastard!" – shouted Hunter before moments later the two fighters pushed each other away that was fallowed up with an instant attack made by the both side where they dark magic/daggers to attack each other.

However, this time the man threw the daggers that caused an explosion, with in turn blocked Hunter vision for the moment….. And the next moment, from the cloud of dust created by explosion the assassin leaped out of it and rushed at Hunter, but she was ready for him as she swinged her scythe and cut the assassin in half on the spot before he could even attack her.

"?!"

But then she saw something weird.

The man body shattered like an glass, surprising Hunter who then saw two more assassins look like jumping of dust and rushing towards Hunter, forcing her to defend herself from their daggers.

"!"

(Impact? So, they are clones!) – though Hunter before overpowering the clones and slashing them in half, but as soon as she did that, the fourth assassin suddenly appeared right behind Hunter without her realizing and stabbing her in the back with [Assassination], dealing critical damage to the Hunter, alarming her as she twisted her body around and tried hitting assassin with [Darkness Blast], but not managing to hit the assassin that managed to get away.

"…Okay… The fuck was that? Are you something like ninja or something?" – asked Hunter while starting at the assassin.

(What the hell was that?)

(He has high rank stealth type skill that I wasn't able to detect until he got close enough or started using skills… And there are also these weird glass clones.)

(And how did he got behind me, without noticing me him moving?)

(Teleportation?)

(And who is that guy anyway in the first place?)

(We looked for an info on him, but we found nothing….)

"…"

The two assassins stared at each other, not moving at all and waiting for the opponent to make the first move.

"…"

"[Shadow Dive]."

"!"

"[Mirror Lie]!"

The first one to make the move was Hunter who tried diving into her shadow, but as soon as she tried to, the man used the counter skill, instantly kicking Hunter out of the shadow and confusing her, but making her instantly snap out of it as the assassin rushed at her and began swinging his knifes at her, forcing on the defense.

"For fuck sake! How many tricks do you have?"

"[Shadow Catcher]!" – Hunter did an large swing downwards that was easily dodged by the assassin who then went for the counter…. Only to instantly stop in place.

"!?"

[Shadow Catcher]

[Enchant your weapon with the trap ability that when striking the target shadow will result in the bind effect.]

The assassin tried to get away, but the next moment he knew, he got drop kicked right in the face, sending the assassin rolling on the ground, before moments later Hunter rushed in and tried impaling the assassin with her scythe.

"[Mirror Metal]!" – the assassin body surface was covered by the transparent mirror like armor that blocked Hunter attack easily, before moments later the assassin leaped away, getting to safety.

"…"

"Tch."

(This will take a fucking while.)

While the Hunter was currently being engaged in the fight with the assassin who was defending the flag, Doctor alongside Arthur had finished off their respective and had already finished their recovery were right now rushing towards the main part of the castle in order to attempt helping out Hunter.

However, before they were able to reach the main part of the castle, they saw something in the distance.

"!"

"[Metal Gate]!" – Doctor suddenly leaped in front of the Arthur and deployed the barrier gate in front of the two, blocking an giant serpent of the water that came flying and crashed against the barrier.

"…"

"Well, I guess he finally showed up." – said Doctor as his metallic gate collapsed from the damage.

An pillar of water flew towards the wall… But not towards the duo.

The water pillar flew and landed on the top of the wall…. Before then dispersing and revealing the muscular and tall merfolk player.

"Hey. Nice meeting you here." – said Arthur.

"Magnus."

"…"

"Tch."

(So even these two couldn't hold them off?) – though annoyed Magnus.

(Ah…. Pain in the ass…. Still, the last guy on my team is still alive…. But is it only 2?)

(The flag wasn't stolen yet…. But its better if I go and check if by any chance the mirror guy is possible fighting somebody.)

"[Sea Craft: Piranha Missiles]." – Magnus manifested several piranhas made out of fish water before moments later Doctor used the [Hounded Barrage] to counter attack and make the projectiles destroy each other midair…. Or so it seemed.

"!?"

Magnus attacks overpowered Doctor attack and flew straight towards him, forcing Arthur to use [Sword Of Judge], firing an beam of light that flew and evaporated the water creatures, before then flying straight towards Magnus who used basic [Water Barrier] to protect himself.

"…"

"Okay… The thing I fired wasn't exactly the strongest spell I had, but it was definitely not weak at all." – said Doctor.

"Yea, could tell." – said alarmed Arthur.

Doctor once again undergone his transformation, turning himself into the monster form.

"Huh. So, you can really transform? How the hell does that work? Is your race not an cyborg but straight up an "robot" or something like that?" – asked curios Magnus.

"[Special Order: Breath]!"

Doctor opened his mouth before moments later an blast of the plague mist flew towards Magnus.

However, he was not alarmed at all by it.

"[Sea Tempest]." – Magnus unleashed an giant wave of rampaging sea water that collided mist and removed it completely.

However, it was an cover.

Arthur used the [Fool Chasing Sun] to launch himself through both the plague mist and the rampaging water while being protected in there sphere of sun magic that completely kept Arthur safe, while also instantly closing the distance and alarming the Magnus who then used [Sea Shell] to protect himself.

"[Blade Of Eternal Redemption]!" – Arthur swinged down his sword, unleashing an blinding light that enveloped his sword and easily cut through the Magnus barrier, before then hitting and sending Magnus flying alongside the slash…. But not killing him as the Magnus managed to stop himself.

However, right after managing to stop himself, an hail of the acid needles began falling down from the sky, forcing the mage to deploy the [Water Barrier Extra] to defend himself from the acid.

But while he was defending himself against acid, Arthur rushed in and unleashed the [True Sword Strike], breaking through the barrier and managing to land another hit on the Magnus.

"…"

(Tch. This is annoying!) – though Magnus before unleashing [Sea Blast], counter attacking the barrage of the explosive skulls that flew his way, before then using [Sea Gaser] to fire an blast of water from the underneath, creating an column of water that stopped Arthur rush who tried to attack the mage once again.

(Doctor guy will use annoying range attacks while the Arthur will use this opening to secure an hit on me. He ain't holding back either, he already threw two ultimates at me.)

(Honestly, if it wasn't for the barrier partially absorbing the damage and thanks to my passives, this could had gotten ugly extremely fast.)

"…"

*Sigh*

"You know, the fact that somehow kicking one of you off the wall won't do much kind of proves how you two are annoying." – said Magnus.

(I guess going all out will be way better option than trying to taking it easy.)

"[Transformation- "

"-Leviathan]!"

"!"

An sudden and giant burst of sea water occurred, alarming the two men as more and more water started spreading around…. But something was off.

The water was taking shape of an ginormous serpent, before moments later something inside the water emerged…..With was then fallowed up with the water exploding and raining down everywhere.

As the water rained down, the two men observed as an giant serpent like creature with two wings like fins had just appeared out of a blue right in front of them.

"I'm going to say one thing you bastard." – said the giant dragon snake sea creature.

"You are fucked!"

[Magnus]
