Chapter 182 - Klaus' Ice Ability
Boom!
The attacks of the three fighters collided and exploded on impact.
The shockwave spread out in all directions, but it was easily dismissed when it got close to any of the fighters.
When the battle started, Klaus took on the young man with the mark, while Grey and Reynolds went for the twins. Reynolds fought against the Water Elementalist, while Grey fought against the Fire Elementalist.
Grey initially wanted to fight against the young man with the mark, but Klaus opted to do it, and since the young man was the one who Klaus was going to use his 'special move' on, Grey didn't hassle over it. Besides, he felt the twins as well as the young man had the same level of strength, so it didn't really matter who fought who, what matters was that they should defeat their opponents.
"Hmph! You should have let him fight me." The young man snorted coldly.
He felt he was being looked down on by Grey and his friends, after all, the strongest should fight against the strongest, right?
"Hehe, you're not strong enough to make him fight against you. Although I'm not as powerful as he is, even if I close my eyes, I'll still be able to beat the hell out of you." Klaus laughed, not annoyed by the young man's statement.
He naturally knew who was stronger in their group and who was weaker, even though he could be said to be the weakest, that was in the midst of his ridiculously strong friends. When placed amongst all the geniuses who entered the trial land, only a few could beat him one on one, and none of those people are in the Third stage of the Origin Plane.
"I'd like to see you say that after I'm done with you. Ha!" The young man yelled and a tornado formed around him.
It slowly increased, two meters, three meters, four meters, and it went all the way to ten meters before stopping. The tornado was drawing in everything in the surrounding, trees, rocks, dirt. It even tried to draw in the people there.
Void was currently laying close to Alice, he raised his head, and the attraction force of the tornado seemed to disappear from their area. It was like the place where Alice was sitting was covered with a strong wall, nothing could go in.
Grey and the Fire Elementalist were able to easily break loose of the attraction force of the tornado, likewise Reynolds and the Water Elementalist.
"Stupid, I'll beat you into a pighead!" Klaus cursed and formed a ten meters radius water dome around himself.
Klaus stretched out his hands and head-sized water balls started shooting out of the water dome at the tornado.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The water balls disappeared into the tornado immediately after contact.
The young man who was currently standing at the center of the tornado, pointed at Klaus, and all the items that were drawn into the tornado shot straight at Klaus.
Klaus smiled on seeing this and immediately solidified the water dome, now, it turned into an ice dome, perfectly protecting the individual inside.
After hitting the ice dome, the wind arrow dispersed with a 'whoosh' sound. Looking closer, the arrow was only able to create a pit that was one-fourth the thickness of the ice dome.
The result of the attack left the young man standing with mouth agape, while Klaus nodded in satisfaction.
"Your attack is just so so." Klaus said moving his hand in a way the young man perceived to be very annoying.
"You're belittling my attack! I'll end you, this time." The young man yelled angrily.
Just as he was about to attack...
"Wait!" Klaus suddenly yelled out.
And for some weird reason, the young man truly stopped his attack. He looked at Klaus attentively, waiting for what he wanted to say.
"You've already attacked." Klaus said and a grin formed on his face, "My turn."
Waves of water suddenly gushed out of the ice dome heading straight at the young man. Klaus also decided it was time to stop hiding in his shell, or else the young man might think he was scared of him.
After exiting the ice dome, the ice dome slowly started breaking before turning into multiple ice spears floating in the sky.
"Let's see how long you can survive my onslaught." Klaus smiled as the spears shot at the young man.
Boom! Bam! Bang!
The young man couldn't believe his eyes, he could take it when he couldn't beat Alice alone, after all, she was a Dual Elementalist. But just like him, Klaus was also a Single Elementalist.
'Why was he this strong? Or, am I the one too weak?'
Multiple questions ran through the young man's head, but he didn't have an answer to them. The only thing he knew was that if things continued like this, it was only a matter of time before he would be defeated.
He looked at the other battles, hoping that maybe one of his companions would be able to overpower either one of Klaus' friends. But his expression changed on seeing the sorry state of the Fire Elementalist that was fighting against Grey. He could tell Grey didn't want to kill him quickly, else, given how badly beaten the Water Elementalist was, he should have been able to kill him already.
Looking on the side of Reynolds' battle, he heaved a sigh because he saw that both fighters seemed to be on the same level, it even looked like the Water Elementalist had the upper hand.
"You should focus on your battle." Klaus approached the young man and once again started attacking.
They exchanged moves once again, and a minute later, they heard a scream which forced them to stop fighting.
When they looked in the direction, they saw a lightning blade piercing out of the back of the Fire Elementalist who was fighting against Grey.
Grey looked at the Fire Elementalist, before diverting his gaze to the other battles. He shook his head and went to sit in a corner, he didn't plan on interfering with the battle of his friends.
