Affinity:Chaos - Chapter 1593: The Fourth Prince’s Strength
?”You’re no fun.” Klaus said in disappointment when saw the man standing there to fight. He wanted to make the Fourth Prince embarrassed that his subordinate left him in the middle of battle, unfortunately, the man didn’t follow his plans.
The Fourth Prince looked at Klaus coldly, he felt a sense of threat from him when he realized what he wanted to do.
Reynolds charged at the Fourth Prince and his puppet blocked it. The Fourth Prince turned his attention to Reynolds and the duo got entangled in a battle.
Klaus shook his head and took a glance at the onrushing Gnome. The second the Gnome got within Klaus’ range, he attacked.
Klaus was already aware of the man’s movement, and his ice dome which was cracked from the Fourth Prince’s attack was fixed.
Boom!
The man’s attack slammed into the dome and made a loud noise, cracks started to run across the ice dome, but just as quickly as the cracks were forming, they were being fixed at almost the same pace.
Klaus didn’t bother as he attacked with his heavy water. The man was forced back, but he didn’t show any fear as he charged at Klaus, his puppet by his side.
On Reynolds’ end, he was battling toe to toe with the Fourth Prince’s puppet, but the Fourth Prince was making things difficult for him. He was even stronger than his puppet which came as a surprise to Reynolds.
The Fourth Prince looked at Reynolds and Klaus oddly, since the start of the battle, neither of them has tried to bring out their puppets. At first he thought Klaus didn’t need it given his superiority over his opponent, but on Reynolds’ side, it was different. If Reynolds was fighting the Fourth Prince on his own, he would most likely have the better hand, but against the Fourth Prince and his puppet, Reynolds’ chances were too low. At a time like this, it was only right that he brings out his puppet.
Reynolds continued his battle with the Fourth Prince, he could force the two back due to his speed and attack power, but he was being cornered.
‘Damn it! I never knew he would be this strong. If I use the full strength of my Elemental Warrior, he will notice it.’
‘Wait… it shouldn’t be wrong for a Necromancer to have an Elemental Warrior.’
Reynolds realized there was no point in hiding his full strength and he exploded forth with a shocking striking force. Like a bolt of lightning, he shot through the air and attacks the Fourth Prince. The Fourth Prince reacted hastily, making use of his puppet to block Reynolds’ attack, while counter attacking in the process.
Reynolds retreated when he sensed the Fourth Prince’s attack, he didn’t stop there, and with a single movement of his right arm, a lightning bolt fell from the sky and crashed in the direction of the Fourth Prince.
The Fourth Prince took a few steps back hastily and managed to dodge the lightning bolt. His puppet attacked Reynolds, but Reynolds was able to block the attack with another attack of his own. Using a series of lightning arrows, he struck down the puppet’s attack and then forcefully cut off one of the hands of the puppet.
The Fourth Prince seemed to have been prepared for this. The second the hand was cut off, it exploded in the direction of Reynolds.
Reynolds, who was advancing, was forced to stop and evade the impact of the explosion.
The side Reynolds moved to was within the range of the Fourth Prince’s darkness domain.
Reynolds felt his speed reduced drastically, and came out with a lightning domain around him, forcing back the effect of the darkness domain on him. He used his domain to fight off the Fourth Prince’s domain, and retreated from the attack coming at him.
On Klaus’ end, things were relatively easier. Without the other Gnome, this guy wasn’t an opportunity for him. The only reason the guy was alive was because he refused to fight and has focused purely on defending. For the first time in a while, Klaus felt a bit of annoyance.
“Fight! Is this how you fight? Coward!”
Klaus was talking as he struck the man, but all the attacks were stopped by the man and his puppet.
‘Damn it! Why does he have to act like a tortoise?’
Klaus used a powerful attack, and just after he broke through both defenses, the man retreated since the attack had been slowed down.
Reynolds was having a hard time with the Fourth Prince, while Klaus on the other hand was finding it hard to take down the Gnome even though the difficulty was reduced after he killed the first guy.
Grey and Alice watched the battle from the same hiding spot, not interested in joining the fight for now.
Reynolds and Klaus are capable of taking care of the situation.
“The Fourth Prince is powerful for someone who broke through recently.” Alice commented.
“Rey will win.” Grey didn’t have any doubts in Reynolds’ ability, especially now that he’s going all out.
“Naturally, but not as easily as we thought he would.” Alice didn’t have any doubts in Reynolds as well, she just didn’t expect the Fourth Prince to be this strong.
“That guy is even stronger. I think he can pose a threat to Rey if they’re on the same cultivation stage.” Grey pointed at the Seventh Prince.
Alice took a glance at the Seventh Prince and recalled their encounter. She was completely overpowered by the Seventh Prince.
“Yeah, he is very strong.” She nodded.
Grey took a glance at Klaus who had calmed down, although he was still hurling insults at the man, he was no longer attacking in a reckless manner. He was calmer with his attacks now, using almost precision with each attack.
‘They should end this fast.’ Grey looked in the direction of the kingdom, when he used the puppet to go above the palace, he sensed the presence of a Mid stage Sovereign hiding in the kingdom.
