Versatile System Online



Meanwhile,

The team fought against the elves continuously. For every team member, they had to take on twenty elves. Though if one looked at it from afar, it seemed as if the difference of twenty elves they had to fight for a single person was nothing because each of the member of Ray's team was having it quite easy. They had the upper hand in the fight and elves seemed to be backing up every second.

That was the team work and training the whole team had practiced to specifically fight against the elves. Amongst everyone, there were two people who had showed the maximum amount of strength. Two lights, one dark and the other bright consumed half of the battlefield.

Sirius had spread out his shadows and used his [Shadow Control] to control the shadows to merge into the battlefield and help his own teammates. It could be said that Sirius had taken the role of the leader as he supported the team members by providing them the versatility of his shadow. As for Sirius himself, he had taken the form of a werewolf and that form was a menace on its own. His claws appeared and disappeared in the air as various elves found it hard to defend themselves.

Along with Sirius was Nia. In her hands were two short swords as they flashed from one opponent to another. Her back had two wings made of light that not only acted as the perfect source of defense but also spread outwards to other teammates and provided them defense whenever someone was in pinch.

Sirius looked behind as he noticed that Ray and the elven chief had disappeared into the forest, "Seems like he has started to get serious," thought Sirius as he knew that it wouldn't be long before Ray the chief was dealt with. After all, Sirius had complete faith in Ray and never for a second did Sirius doubt Ray's chances against the chief.

"He is doing his part and its time for us to do ours," He muttered to himself and clenched his fists.

"ARISE!!" He exclaimed, his voice sounding almost like a growl as the shows around him converged and covered his whole body. Forming an armor of shadows, the armor merged into his skin and flesh as it took on a reddish tinge due to the blood that had spilled from his body. Then, putting his hand out, Sirius opened another shadow. Out from the shadow came a long spear with dull engravings upon it. Mist of the spear was covered in rust while its blade was straight and long, covering half of the spear's length. Looking at it, one would find it quite absurd as the blade didn't seem to be made with the spear but rather it looked as if a sword's blade was attached to an extremely long handle.

The spear kept coming out as Sirius's hand grabbed it tightly and pulled out the whole spear. The weapon itself was taller than its wielder as it gave off an eerie feeling but that was for others who saw it. For Sirius though, the weapon seemed to have merged with him, like an extension of his limb; the spear was his to wield. Slowly, a shadowy presence grew behind him and stood there silently.

It was the same wolf shadow that had appeared behind Sirius on multiple occasions and for Sirius, whenever it happened; he gained substantial boost in strength. Therefore, even though he didn't know a thing about this phenomenon, he didn't mind it and used it as a way to come out of tricky situation.

This time, the wolf shadows was more refined than before. The runic patterns over its body were clearer while one could even feel a slight primal aura leaking out of it and merging with that of Sirius's. 

Swinging the spear in his hands, Sirius felt something prick in top his skin and felt his blood be sucked out of his palm. Sirius let it be because this was something that the spear did. The spear needed his blood to get activated. As for why? Sirius was as clueless as anyone else. If one asked Sirius, he would probably reply that at times, he felt like using the powers of someone else, of someone greater and more magnificent than he could even imagine.

Ignoring the prickling sensation, Sirius stood straight as the runes that ran on the spear started to light up. Their glow turned into a pulsating one as the runes flickered for a second before a deep pulse ran through the spear. 

The elves in front of Sirius felt a chill run through their spine. Feeling as if a predator had locked onto them, they noticed the sharp change in Sirius's aura. 

"Let's have some fun," Sirius muttered as he finally let his restraints free. His aura shot through the roof as he unveiled his bloodthirst. His claws elongated as they gripped even tighter to the spear while the spear itself miraculously adjusted to the changes Sirius underwent. 

A dark scene unfolded afterwards as Sirius brutally tortured every elf that came his way. From arms to legs, he broke all their limbs and left their faces disfigured while even gutting some of the cocky ones. He did so without an ounce of sympathy because all he felt was a thirst. The thirst to kill and wreak havoc everywhere.

Though, it wasn't just Sirius that let himself free. Nia also did the same as she abandoned all defense and went on the offense. Her bracelets elongated and turned into two beautiful short swords while her light ability conversed around her body, providing her with a full body armor that provided her excellent defense without hindering her mobility at all.

As for the defense, Nia didn't know. She had trusted her instincts and dug deep into the elven army. Not knowing how she would tackle the other problems that would arise but to her surprise, she didn't get hit once. Hence, she concentrated on taking out as many enemies as possible because after all, that was her job. She was one of the only two that were given the offensive positions and she had to trust her teammates to take care of the rest.

"Clanggg!!!" The swords clanged against one another as Nia tilted her hand by a bit and used her next attack as a feint . Having two swords allowed her to use more tactics and combinations when fighting the enemies and she did just that. She used one of her swords as a feint while the other sword did the main damage.

The elf thought that the attack coming at Hiawatha deadly and therefore blocked it with all his force and concentration. Only to find out that the attack had no force behind it, bewildered and confused; the elf had only thought for a second as it felt something warm trickle down his lip.

Wiping his lip, he noticed blood flowing out of his mouth. That was when the pain started and the elf finally realized that the attack he had blocked was nothing but a feint.

The light was gone from the elf's eyes and he had long fallen to the ground while his opponent had already moved on to the next elf besides her. 

Now Nia faced a pure magician. The elf in front of her had a muscular build while a fairy aura evolved around his body. Nia had noticed that this elf had given other member quite a hard time and therefore, she had decided to step in and face this elf and finish the issue once and for all.

As she stopped and took a look, she noticed someone following her. Glancing backwards, it was Tim, the tank of the team.

"Thanks," she muttered in a low voice and Tim heard it clearly. He nodded back and readied his shield once again. He knew that the enemy was strong and a mage on top of that. Thus, Tim had to defend Nia as much as he could so she would be able to face of the elf and finish him off.

Looking at them both, the elf smirked. A deep hatred burning in his eyes because he knew. He knew that the two in front of him were strong and probably the ones who had captured his brother. 

Clenching his hands tightly, a fiery aura spread forward while his hands went ablaze. The fire spread through both his arms as they were both covered in thick tongues of fire but it wasn't just the arms because soon, the fire spread through his body and not long later, both Tim and Nia were sure that all they could see was a man covered in fire running at them with a blazing sword in his hand.

[Block], shouted Tim as he slammed the shield on the ground and provided it with a great amount of mana. 

The shield enlarged and right as it did, a sword slash hit it right in the center. The impact sent trembles through the shield and Tim as both Nia and Tim realized that it was going to be a long and hard battle.
