Chapter 188 Bruce Davenport

Dozens of men with adventurer equipment appeared in the distance. They stared and charged in full force.

“Hey, what are you doing there! Get back here. It’s dangerous!”

Aldred looked at the man and smiled. “Don’t worry. I will take care of them.”

Aldred walked in front of the charging warrior who was 150 meters away.

They wondered what a lone man was doing in front of a charging infantry. They smiled, imagining this man being crushed under their feet.

Aldred aimed his palm. He then drew it back to his waist into a fist while entering a stance. Taking a deep breath, he stared at the enemy, and then punched forward.

“Flame Fist!”

A small fist shot forward. At first, the enemies scoffed at the weak spell, but as the fist became larger and larger as a building, the warrior’s faces became pale, and they stopped on their feet.

“RUN!”

The enemies turned around to run from the gigantic fire fist, but they were too late as the fist engulfed them in flames.

“AHHH!”

They rolled around trying to put out the flames, a water magician tried to put out the flames with his water spell, but to no avail.

Aldred’s flame was constantly being fed with his unlimited mana. Unless the spell was powerful enough, his fire would never die unless he willed it.

An arrow shot towards Aldred’s face. Mary quickly stepped in and caught it with her bare hand.

In the distance, a man with silver, dreadlocks hair stood on top of a fallen wall. His thin and radiant face perfectly accompanied by his narrow gray eyes.

The right hand that held the bow had a tattoo of an eagle claw.

The man raised his bow once again and fired another arrow at Aldred. Mary caught it again.

He fired another one, but Mary caught it.

For the third time, the arrow shot at Aldred, and as Mary caught it, the arrow exploded with a powerful shock wave that made Mary’s hand turn numb.

“Mary, let me handle this.”

Mary nodded and walked to the back as Mira healed her hand.

The arrow came at Aldred, and he deflected it with his sword. Another came again, it was quick, but Aldred was quicker.

Clang!

Aldred frowned. That one arrow was much heavier than he had expected. The vibration shook his arm which made it strained a bit.

Another arrow came, and just like before, Aldred slapped it to the side.

At the moment of impact however, Aldred felt like he was hitting a wall of steel instead of an arrow.

“Shit!” Someone said, “That’s Bruce Davenport. I think we should retreat.”

Aldred frowned. “Tell me more about this Bruce Davenport.”

“He’s a new guy that’s on the rise in Epolissa Prefecture. His skill with the bow let him quickly rise to the top and got access to the 10th floor. He’s also known as Eagle Eye.”

Aldred smiled as another arrow flew towards him.

“Water Razor!”

An arc of water cut the arrow in half. But shockingly, the cut arrow still went forward.

“Flame Jet!”

The arrows were blasted away.

The other adventurers seeing this were amazed. Everyone here knew who Bruce Davenport was, and knew of his legendary skill. But for this man to deflect all of the arrows was something amazing as well.

Aldred and Bruce then sent attacks at each other. Aldred sent his fire arrows, bullets, balls, and javelins at the man while Bruce kept sending one arrow after another.

His arrow trajectory became more complicated. It shot into the sky from the side, and then it maneuvered in his direction.

Aldred grabbed a handful of rocks and threw at him as a distraction before sending a storm of arrows. The man was quick on his feet as well. Running around while constantly sending arrows at Aldred.

“Wow. Look at their battle. That man seemed to be a magician and a swordsman, but he fought the Eagle Eye at long-range.”

“They both have great accuracy. Look at how many of those fire arrows almost hit Bruce.”

Aldred frowned and he struggled to fight against the bowman as his arrows became heavier and faster. He retreated. Bruce saw the chance and advanced, sending more arrows his way.

“Look. That guy is losing ground.”

Aldred threw rocks at Bruce, but the man dodged before releasing another arrow. This time, Aldred could not dodge, so he summoned his Golden battle Gear, and it deflected the arrow into the air.

The impact made his feet slide against the ground for a few meters. The deflected arrow spun in the air, and then stabbed the ground in front of him.

“What armor is that! How could it hold out against Bruce’s arrow?”

Bruce pointed at him. “You cheated. Take off your armor.”

Aldred laughed. “There’s no such thing as cheating in battle. Besides, I am a swordsman while you’re a bowman. If I get close to you, you will die.”

Bruce snorted. “You think you can get close to me? Many warriors died trying to do that. I thought you’re the wiser one since you can use magic as well.”

“Who said, I cannot get close to you?”

Bruce frowned and then a long sword pierced out of his stomach from the back.

Aldred laughed as his clone raised Bruce with a long sword. Bruce gasped for air as he spat out blood. His powerful bow fell to the ground.

The adventurers watching this widened their eyes. “How could there be two of him now?”

Bruce looked at Aldred and then he turned his head to look at his clone.

“How is this possible?”

“Everything is possible.”

Aldred’s clone pulled his long sword out, and then kicked the man. His body was pushed forward by inertia before landing face first by Aldred’s feet.

“There is nothing personal between us. We just come from different sides. If we come from the same side, I believe we can be good friends.”

Bruce smiled. “You got me. You win. Now quick. End my life.”

Aldred laughed. “I will end your life. But I also got something better for you.”

Using blood manipulation, Aldred exploded the man’s heart.
