Chapter 191: Kevin, The Slime Slayer

Alex kept running at a full speed and in few minutes he already on the other side where Cyril seemed to be held hostage.

Stopping few meters away from the assailant who put one of his feet on Cyril, the latter seemed to be unconscious, Alex was surprised, so surprised that he started laughing. 

''Hahaha, I was wondering who the surprise might be, but it turned to be you, Kevin.'' 

Kevin was surprised, he didn't expect to meet Alex this soon. Nonetheless, it was a God-sent opportunity as he also wanted to have a chance to beat Alex. He started grinning, he must use this opportunity to accomplish that goal.

''Hehehe, isn't our dear Alexander? Why don't you say hello to your Big brother after coming to the capital? I don't remember teaching to behave like that. You must always greet your elders, it was what I teach you. Did you forget?" Kevin tried to provoke him. 

Alex couldn't stop himself from laughing, he would be an idiot if he falls for such a petty trick. 

Kevin's face darkened slightly, he decided to switch to another method, a more vicious one, lifting his foot, a flame appeared under the sole of his foot, then he grinned before bringing his flaming foot down towards the beaten up Cyril's hand if Kevin were to succeed, not only he would injure Cyril at the same time he will be sending him out of the field as the hand he targeted was the one where Cyril wore the wristband. 

And how could Alex allowed such a thing, it was Kevin's goal, he wants to see Alex watch helplessly as he sends his last teammate out of the field, to Kevin there was no way Alex can stop him as he was faster. 

Unfortunately, he was wrong, he abruptly stopped his foot midway before jumping back to avoid a knife thrown by Alex. 

Now twenty away from Cyril, Kevin glared at Alex, the latter was smiling. Suddenly, Cyril vanished, he has been teleported out of the field, it seemed that Alex's knife had cut off his wristband, Alex had done this to help Cyril to receive treatment, and more importantly if he was present he was going to be a burden, Kevin may use him as a hostage again.

*Pft hahaha

Alex couldn't help laugh when he saw Kevin's status, especially one of his titles.

Titles: [Otherworlder] [ The Lackey] [ Vicious Mouth] [Slime Slayer] [Flame Prince] 

''Slime Slayer? Pft hahaha. I wonder how many Slime you must have killed to acquire such a title?" Alex asked. 

Kevin's face darkened, among his titles, [Slime Slayer] was the one he hated the most, if he could have removed it he would have done it long ago, unfortunately, it was impossible to erase a title. It's a lifetime thing, what was worst it's that he acquired that title after clearing the First floor of a dungeon they have been raiding, Leonardo, Dodolus, Camilla, and Amy were also present, it was all of them who cleared that floor and yet he was the only one to have acquired such a title.

〖Master please teach that murdered a lesson. How dare he〗Silveria said furiously. 

'Sil?' Alex asked perplexed as he could not understand why she seemed so mad at Kevin. 

〖How dare he to kill such a cute little creature. He killed them so much that he acquired the Slime Slayer title.〗Silveria explained.

'So, slimes are cute? They must not be killed? What should I do if I encounter one? Let myself get devoured?' Alex was amused.

〖Yeah they are cute, I like the sound they made after being pierced by my bullets. Pop~ pop. Only I have the right to murder such a cute little creature. Fufufu! I'm looking forward to the day I'll encounter one.〗Silveria said while smiling sweetly. 

Alex's jaw almost dropped to the floor, for his peace of mind he decided not to comment.

Kevin was surprised by Alex's expression because the latter expression suddenly became weird, he decided to provoke Alex again, his title Vicious mouth wasn't for show.

However before he could open his mouth Alex said, 

''Kevin, the Slime Slayer you did not answer my previous question, I'm still waiting you know?"

Kevin's face became red, blood rushed to his head and he spat out, ''Die.'' 

He then extended his finger in Alex's direction, immediately Alex dodged a fire beam shot out from Kevin's finger. 

Alex kept dodging left and right when suddenly his figure blurred, he disappeared to reappear on Kevin's left, his leg aimed toward the latter face, Kevin defended his face with his free hand while also sending a kick at Alex. The latter was forced to jump back, just as he landed, he launched three knives at Kevin. 

Swooosh! Swooosh!! 

Against the first knife, Kevin slightly tilted his body backward to avoid it. As for the remaining two, he dealt with them using his longsword sword.

Clangs! Clangs! 

Taking a quickdraw stance to perform one of his sword skills, Kevin shouted, 

[Meteor Slash]

Rumble!

The sky turned crimson, Alex was assaulted with a sudden dreadful feeling, he knew he must fall back as far he can or else he may be injured, worst lose the match, so without holding back, he accel-ed numerous times. 

The ground was cleaved into two creating a long gash on the ground (five meters). The ground was scorched as if a couple of meteors had fallen there. 

Even from where he was Alex could feel the heat, he sweated thinking has been lucky to have such heaven-defying movement skill, or else he would be forced to deal with such dangerous skill. 

Without turning around Alex defended with his knife Reaper, 

Clangs! 

Somehow, Kevin appeared behind him and attacked him, normally Kevin should be exhausted after executing such strong skill and yet it was not the case, Alex was confused.

Thankfully Silveria's next words cleared his confusion. 

〖Normally yes, but due to a certain title he possesses, the amount of MP he must normally use to execute his skills (Fire related one) is halved, I'm talking about his Flame Prince title.〗

'I see.' Alex said while dodging Kevin's attacks.

Since the start Alex was not seriously fighting as he decided to restraint himself to see how he would fare facing a swordsman such as Kevin, can he win without using his Gift? He wondered.

Kevin was feeling extremely frustrated at the moment, none of his attacks were connecting, Alex kept dodging, even his strongest attack did not work. He felt like Alex was toying with him as he was not fighting him seriously. He didn't even use his Gift. Or it's because it's still sealed? I don't think so, let's test him.

Kevin decided before using his special ability, his trump card, even though he possesses the Flame Prince's title that can reduce the amount of MP needed for Fire related skills by half, his special ability wouldn't last more than three seconds as it drains too much MP. 

{Fire Sword Domain active} Kevin said. 

Immediately, three meters around Alex has been turned into a sea of flame, in the sky, five illusionary big swords made of flame appeared, their tips pointed at Alex. 

Kevin was panting hard, even so, he grinned when he saw the surprised expression on Alex's face, flicking his fingers Kevin ordered.

''Flame swords bury him.'' 

Suddenly, the five flame swords were shot at Alex at extremely fast speed.

From the onlookers' point of view, these swords were extremely fast and almost unavoidable, but to Alex, they were slow compared to the wind alpha wolf. 

Sighing, Alex decided to finally use Silveria. Summoning her, Alex fired five times. 

Bang! Bang! Bang!!!

Five piercing bullets clashed against the five flame swords, 

Boom!!!!

A big explosion occurred dying the sky red. 

Kevin's mouth was wide open, he couldn't believe what just happened, neither the audience outside. Most of the spectators were not able to see what happened, they just know that Alex took out something and that all. They were not able to see him shoot five bullets at fast speed with Silveria. 

''Fufufu! This boy has gotten stronger again.'' Elseria commented. 

Freya was also surprised,

''Do you know what kind of Gift that is?" She asked while looking at Silveria which was in Alex's hand.

''Never heard of such unusual Gift that can shoot a projectile. It's my first time seeing it.'' Elseria shrugged her shoulders.

Freya couldn't only sigh, she decided to continue watching Alex's match this time with more interest.

~Back to Alex and Kevin. 

Kevin's body trembled, he knew he had screwed up. Without his Gift Alex was toying with him and with it now, he stood no chance.

Suddenly, Alex vanished and reappeared in front of the trembling Kevin. 

''It's now my turn.'' 

Alex said before punching Kevin in the stomach. 

''Guha?!" 

The punch was too fast and too strong, so strong that it sent Kevin spiraling into the sky. 

Alex vanished to reappear above the falling Kevin with one of his legs raised high, he brought it down, pummeling Kevin toward the ground. 

Bang! 

''Gofuh?!" 

Kevin crashed against the ground creating a huge crater, he immediately fainted with foam coming out of his mouth, his eyes rolled back.

Alex landed softly near him. Lowering his body, he muttered,

''It's not good to run your mouth. Keep it shut.''

He then removed Kevin's wristband, the latter was instantly teleported outside of the field.

Team 3 Vs Team 7, the match just ended with the victory of Alex's team.
