Gacha Sovereign 99 Bawon Fortress 8

"So, the feeling I got in the fortress was from you four"

"Hehe… as expected of an abnormal genius. Even your perception was that high. Even those in rank 8 still find it difficult to notice our present" Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

He felt he was observed by the other. At first, because of Leyfon appearance, he knew he was the one who spied on him. But the feeling still continued even after Leyfon appeared. But…

"Assassin?"

"Well, genius. You might easily kill rank 6 monsters. But sadly, we are rank 7 assassins. And there will be a big difference where you fought with a monster and with human"

He made two mistakes. First, he already felt something like them in the fortress and made preparation but still underestimated them. Judging from their aura alone, they are roughly rank 7. His second mistake lies in Alicia and Firia. Because he chose to accompany them they got dragged inside this mess. Their target must be him, after all, Alicia is a princess, there is no one fool enough to make an enemy with Acacia Kingdom. Firia…she is also a marquis daughter, but she is not noticeable enough to get some assassin to hunt her.

The assassin drew their blade. Alex frowned and immediately shouted. "Are you sure? She is one of Acacia Kingdom Princess you know? Do you think you can afford to kill her?"

"If all of you die here. We can just throw your body into the deeper zone of this forest. People might think you all died because of the monster"

This might be bad, he thought. They target was him at first. But because the others were with him, he confirmed his speculation after that conversation. They really became the target along with him. "I'm sorry guys"

"What are you saying Alex? I have sworn that day to go life and death with you"

"Yes. I already swore too"

"Sherry. Bring those two to the fortress"

"Wuu"

Sherry immediately grabbed Alicia and Firia on top of her. Unlike Alicia and Firia. Sherry thought otherwise. She thought bringing these two first would be the best solution.

"Go"

Sherry immediately charged forward. But suddenly, an assassin got in her way.

Seeing the situation Alex tried to help her out. He immediately ran toward the enemy. But before he can help her, an assassin also appeared in front of him.

"Move! Sanguin Sword Art. Seventh Slash"

A tyrannical sword wave appeared from Alex's sword. But sadly…

"Hehe… This is really a strong sword strike. It can easily kill a rank 6 monster or heavily injured a rank 7 monster. Unfortunately, you are facing a human. This is the difference between monsters and us, humans. They moved with instinct while we move with brain"

The assassin immediately flew away from Alex's sword wave. Just when he thought he can go straight to Sherry. He immediately turned back with his sword.

"Clang"

The two swords clashed with each other. Another assassin appeared behind him.

"Yes, this is another reason. We have a combination"

Meanwhile, on the Sherry side. She also fought two assassins like Alex.

"Wuu"

Sherry released her flame from her body and released a flame paw toward the assassins. The dodge Sherry's attack completely. And another assassin disappeared.

The moment she noticed. The other assassin already appeared behind her and kicked her away.

"Wuu"

Alicia and Firia fell down because of the kick. The previous assassin who was in front of her immediately moved toward Alicia and Firia.

"Hehe… Princess Alicia and this young lady. I will be your opponent. I will play with you all along so you can watch your man killed by us"

"You…you…insane" Firia desperately shouted.

"Do you think our Acacia will let you off"

"Hehe, it was useless to say all of that. The reason was the same. They will only know you were killed by monsters inside the forest"

"You-"

Sherry got up and went toward them hurriedly. But the assassin who kicked her appeared in front of her.

"I will be the one who plays with you"

"Wuu" Sherry was angered.

Present fight: Alex vs Assassin A and assassin B, Alicia and Firia vs assassin C, and Sherry vs Assassin D

Alex calmed himself down. This situation turned to worse. If he was alone, he might be able to run from them, but now, there are Alicia, Firia, and even Sherry. Alex decided to finish his fight as soon as possible.

"Sky Movement. Flash Step. Plus, Boost Step"

Alex disappeared after using those two techniques. The moment he appeared, it was behind assassin B. Assassin B was startled with Alex speed. Alex slashed his sword at him hoping to finish him in one blow.

Suddenly, another sword appeared between them. The sword belonged to the other assassin. "Hehe… Taking him on surprise with your speed might be possible if he was alone. But sadly, he was with me. I am also proud of my speed"

"If speed was useless then strength. Sky Movement. Immovable Step. Plus, Boost Step." He used the Immovable Step to increase his power and Boost Step to increase the momentum from his arm. He then punched the assassin who was proud of his speed.

But the one who caught his strike was the other assassin. "Well, If he is speed, then I am Strength"

Alex took a step backward. Seeing his fist didn't even put a scratch on them. He knew, this situation…

"Sky Movement. Fleeting Step"

This time, he planned to use his unpredictable Fleeting Step to confuse them. He moved closer to the assassins and tried to cut them.

A series of clashing was heard. The assassins who were joking all this time became serious. Alex put them on the defensive with his Fleeting Step. This unpredictable footwork made the situation troublesome.

Alex suddenly raised his spear.

"Spear Throwing Art. Spin Throwing"

He threw his spear toward the 'Strength' Assassin. The assassin dodged it completely.

"Hehe… If I haven't seen this technique. That move just now might kill me-" The assassin suddenly felt something wrong. He turned back and shouted "Johan, Dodge!"

Alex's target wasn't him. His target was the assassin behind him. He moved toward the spot where they were lined up so he could target the assassin behind his back. Johan, the assassin who was in charge of Alicia and Firia was startled. He saw the incoming spear and dodge it.

He barely dodged it and fell down because he lost his balance. Alicia and Firia didn't let this chance go.

"Ice Prison"

"Flame Spear"

They released their magic toward the assassin. After he got hit from Firia's flame spear. It was prisoned by Alicia's Ice prison. They immediately took this chance to run. But…

"Bang!"

Alicia's Ice Prison broke. "If you think you can hinder me with this technique, you might be wrong. I admit this technique is powerful. But the user itself wasn't powerful. Our difference was that big"

Alex immediately used another move, "Sanguin Sword Art. Seventh Slash"

The sword wave went toward the 'Strength' Assassin who was turning his head. Seeing the 'Strength' assassin can't dodge this move, The 'Speed' assassin was the one who intercepted his move.

The assassin used his full strength to block this attack.

"Boom"

Now, we can see that the assassin who blocked Alex's attack, got his left arm bruised all over. "Hehe, Now we are understood. Your power was even more abnormal than the report. Luckily I sacrificed my hand before the clash. Look, my left hand was useless now. If I used my dominant hand to block that. I would be useless to fight you now"

The 'Strength' assassin already recovered. It immediately threw a punch to Alex. Alex dodged this punch easily. Alex once again used his Fleeting Step.

"Oi, you guys. Change of the plan. Finished them off first, we two weren't his opponent. Holding his off is all we can do"

"I can't. I also can only hold this fox back"

The one who said that was the assassin that stopping Sherry. Like what happened with Alex. Sherry also strong enough to suppress her opponent.  From their battle, Sherry's flame was unordinary. After all, she was evolved after eating Alex's flame and evolved once again after eating Quenching Fire Pill. Her flame purity alone was close to Absolute Level or Pure Level. Sherry released her flame in a very unique way. The flame rose from her body and charged toward the assassin like a snake. Even though the assassin took it hard. Sherry also didn't find any gap to go to Alicia and Firia. Every time she thought she can pass him and went to them. She would be stopped by him.

On the contrary, the assassin in front of Alicia and Firia really took it easy. All of Alicia and Firia attacks were neutralized by him easily. Their gap was that big. Their attack was useless in front of him.

"So that means, I am the one. It really a shame to kill these two goddesses but, I need to be professional in this job. Goodbye"

"Wuu" Sherry rose her flame even further and bombard the one in front of her.

Alex also shouted hurriedly "Don't you dare"

He immediately took out his rank 8 spear from the system. From other perspectives, he took out a spear from out of nowhere. "Where you got the spear?"

Alex used another fleeting Step and fought back insanely. He went toward the injured assassin. He made a stabbing motion. The assassin immediately used his sword to parry it. Unfortunately, this spear was far stronger than Alex's previous spear.

"What? That spear" The assassin was startled with the spear power. At first, he was startled when Alex pulled out this spear out of nowhere. But since Alex was a genius. Having a few trump cards like that was normal, he then calmed himself down. But he was very surprised when he experienced this spear's power.

It broke his sword. The spear continued went forward and pierced his dominant hand. Now, his two hands were useless. Alex kicked him to the side and went toward Alicia and Firia but only found himself stopped by the other assassin. "Moved"

"Johan, hurry up." The useless assassin shouted. This is also the reason. If they can't hold Alex with only two of them. They will kill the other swiftly and circled him with four of them.

Johan who was on the side was startled when one of his teammates already lost. He immediately raised his sword.

"Wuu"

"Sorry you need to pass me first if you wanted to help them"

"Wuu Wuu"

Alex's side was the same. "Move!"

The assassin suddenly ducked and grabbed him. Alex can't escape from his grasp. It took an instant for him to calm himself. Alex raised his sword and behead him.

"I won't make it. My spear also won't make it. Heck with that."

"Spin Throwing"

To kill Alicia or Firia, he only needs an instant. He raised his sword, appeared in front of her and stabbed Firia on the stomach. Blood started gushing out from her body. Her face became pale. Alex's spear has yet arrived. After He stabbed Firia. The spear finally reached him and pierced him.

'it was damn too late'

 "Firia!"
