BXBX NOVEL Chapter 148 - Grabbing One By The Neck
Brr Brr
Swosh
The spear suddenly shot up from the ground and moved towards the man, perfectly landing on his hand.
"What?"
Reyan raised his sword and took one step back, standing in front of Kairen. Team leader Dains raised his other gone and pointed both of them at the man, and Kairen started to move his mana.
But not caring about the three people preparing for battle, the man playfully shook the spear in his hand.
"Wouldn\'t it be better to just cut off the roots of all this problem? That would be the fastest and easiest way... Hmm?"
He raised his head and looked at the mage standing behind everyone.
"A spell can\'t work without its caster... Can it?"
"...."
Kairen felt shivers run down his spine. He hurriedly cast layers of shield around the four of them.
"Are you serious? You want to fight us in such a place?"
The man looked around at the team leader\'s words and shrugged his shoulders as if to ridicule him.
"Do you think I can\'t do shit because there is no soil here, huh?"
The man glanced at the girl behind him for a moment before turning towards the agents again.
He raised his spear, pointing at them with the tip of its small blade.
And...
Crack
... Dashed.
The ice under his feet cracked, his image turned blurry, and he disappeared from his spot.
BAMMM
The next second, something blurry hit Kairen\'s shields.
BAMM
And broke them all in one go.
"!!"
The spear that had passed through the shields moved strength towards its target, Kairen.
Clang
Reyan moved his arms, blocking the spear with his sword.
"Ack!"
But he too was pushed back after the sword and the spear collided.
"This damned ice!"
He looked down at his feet that were slipping on the ice with just a little push from the man.
Bang Bang
Bullets rained down on the man who was still in front of Reyan.
Before the bullets could reach him, he moved his other free hand and grabbed Reyan by the collar.
He pulled Reyan forward and twisted his own body, switching places with him and placing him in the trajectory of the team leader\'s bullets instead of himself.
"Ah!?"
Reyan, momentarily dazed, looked at the friendly bullets that were about to pierce his body.
Dang Dang Dang
But the bullets didn\'t injure him. They hit a magic barrier around him and fell down.
The next thing that Kairen saw after he was done casting the shield around Reyan was the tip of a spear moving towards his neck.
"Stop!"
But the spear stopped before it could reach him.
"Tch!"
The man clicked his tongue and turned to Alan.
"I told you it\'s not funny!"
Craaack
The ice under his feet cracked once again.
"But it\'s pretty annoying."
BAAAMM
The next second, Alan was punched and sent flying. He landed on the ground after moving for a few meters in the air and rolled on the ice.
"Fuck! Why!?!"
Alan raised his body almost immediately and used his ability again. However, there were no results other than the man pausing for a second.
"How??"
He used his power again and again, but the result was the same.
"That\'s..."
The man ran towards him once again.
"...Enough!"
And kicked him with his foot.
"Gah!"
Once again Alan rolled on the ice, but this time in the opposite direction of the last time.
"Gah! You... Bastard!"
Alan grabbed his chest and glared at the man. The man ignored Alan and rushed at Kairen again.
Clang
Once again, his spear was blocked by Reyan. The sword that was now glowing due to the aura wrapped around it made a small cut on the man\'s long spear.
Craccck
The ice under the two of their feet cracked as the two men pushed their opponent with their weapons.
"Move."
Reyan didn\'t respond to the man\'s cold voice and put more force in his hands instead. The ice cracked even more under their feet and pieces of broken ice scattered around.
It was then...
"...!"
The man jerked his head towards the source of the light that appeared in the air all of a sudden.
In the sky, he could see numerous shiny magic blades floating above him.
Tap
Reyan kicked the ground at that moment, jumping all the way back to where Kairen was standing.
As soon as he landed before Kairen, the magic blades all rushed at the man.
The next second, a whole bunch of bullets was shot towards the man.
BAAAANGG
With a loud sound, the place where the man was standing exploded.
Steam rose to the air, a huge hole was created on the ground, and pieces of ice scattered around.
But the thing was that... there was no blood seen there even though the whole area was destroyed.
Swosh
Hearing the sound of something heading towards him, Reyan hurriedly raised his sword to block the man. He could see a blurry thing rush at him at a high speed.
But strangely, the blurry thing attacking him wasn\'t the man.
Clang
It was only his spear.
The spear hit his sword, but there was no one holding onto it.
Plop
Without any force supporting it, the spear was powerlessly pushed away due to the impact of the collide.
"...What?"
By the time he realized what had happened, it was already too late.
"Ah!"
Kairen gasped and looked at the man that was grabbing his neck with one hand.
The man moved so fast that he couldn\'t even cast a proper spell. He wanted to move back, but he ended up slipping on the icy and nearly falling down, before getting caught by the neck by the man.
The man looked at him once before sighing and commenting something.
"You still have the time to remove the spell."
"...."
Kairen didn\'t answer the man and instead moved his mana. The symbols floating all around him shone as he started to cast his spell.
"Oh, no. You won\'t."
The man clenched his free hand.
POWW
And punched Kairen in the stomach.
"GAH!"
The spell he was casting collapsed and the symbols around Kairen\'s body vanished. He would fall to his knees from pain if he was hit like this in normal circumstances, but Kairen couldn\'t even move or groan properly as he was being held by the neck.
"You-!"
The man turned towards Reyan who was moving his sword to send an aura slash towards him.
"You sure?"
With a slight movement of his hand, Kairen was powerlessly dragged around and placed between the man and the other unit members.
"...."
Reyan halted. His hands holding his sword were shaking due to anger as he glared at the man clenching Kairen\'s throat and dragging him around as if he was a doll.
Reyan took his eyes off of the man and turned towards team leader Dains in hopes of getting an order from him.
But what he saw was that, instead of giving orders, or even trying to save Kairen, his team leader was pointing his gun at someone else.
He was pointing his guns at Claire Raid.
The team leader stayed like that for a second.
Turning his head, he looked at the man who was still holding Kairen.
The man looked between Kairen, the team leader, and Claire, before only lightly shrugging as if telling that he didn\'t care what they did with Claire, or even saying Claire to take care of herself.
"Bastard!"
Claire raised her hands as she angrily cursed the man.
BANG
BANG
BANG
Bullets were shot towards her without any hesitation, and at the same time, a black and purple layer appeared in front of her.
Before the bullets could hit her, Claire jumped into the portal. The bullets helplessly moved past the portal and fell on the ground after moving a little bit.
The next second, another black and purple layer appeared beside the man and Claire jumped out of it.
Clenching her fists, she angrily glared at the man. She opened her mouth but closed it without saying anything. Taking a few steps back, she created another portal beside her and stood at a little bit of distance from the man.
The man completely ignored Claire and only looked at the agent in front of him.
"Remove the spell... Or do you really want me to kill you?"
"...."
Kairen only looked at the man\'s face without giving any answer.
\'Why does he keep threatening me?\'
The man kept telling him that he would kill him but still didn\'t do so. He just warned and warned.
Getting no answer from Kairen, the man sighed again moved his hand, grabbing Kairen\'s head instead of his neck.
"...."
He stopped moving for a moment and glared at Alan who was sitting far away from the others.
"Tch!"
The spear on the floor shook and shot towards Alan. Without even waiting to see the result of his attack, the man moved down his hand that was grabbing Kairen\'s head.
POWW
And kicked his face with his knee.
