353 He Was a Weakling
'Hmm?'
Ace was startled when he saw Nova.
But what surprised him most was that he saw countless magical beasts standing behind Nova. Even though most of them were only at 2-star, but their numbers were very large.
It was big enough to change the outcome of the war because their number was about one hundred thousand.
'Did he go to get reinforcements?'
That was the question that suddenly appeared in his mind.
"Ace… I mean, ice dragon. I've come to help you." The pronunciation of Ace and Ice was similar, so no one suspected Ace's identity when Nova slipped his tongue.
The corner of Ace's lips twitched when Nova almost revealed his real identity.
'He is the same as ever.'
He said in his head.
Unlike Ace, Finley and his people were unhappy.
They had the upper hand in the war because of their enormous numbers, but the arrival of Nova and his subordinates threatened the victory that was already in sight.
Now, it would be challenging to win the war because their enemies had greater numbers.
'Damn it! I did not expect him to get reinforcements in the middle of a war.'
Finley cursed venomously in his heart.
When Ariel saw Finley's unhappy expression, he immediately spoke, "Don't worry. We will still win the war." "That's right, Your Majesty." Jalen added. "As long as we kill that dragon, we will win the war."
"Yes. We will win the war." Finley repeated their words to restore his confidence. "Did you go to get subordinates?" Ace inquired. "No." Nova told Ace that he left to find Roshia, but he could not find her.
When he was on his way to the Xiriel Kingdom, some magical beasts attacked him and tried to kill him, so he beat them up and forced them to be his slaves. Black lines formed on Ace's forehead. "So, they are not your underlings but your slaves?" "Yes." Nova responded, "You can use them as you please. I don't care about them."
Ace was pleased upon hearing Nova's words. "Then, order them to kill our enemies."
Nova immediately looked at his slaves and uttered, "You bastards, go and kill these humans now!"
"Kill these damn humans!" his slaves did not complain and rushed toward Finley's subordinates because they hated humans to the bone.
"Nova, can you help Silvia and the others?" Ace uttered, "I need to deal with these four old men, so I can't help her."
Instead of answering his question immediately, Nova inquired, "Don't you need my help?"
Ace shook his head. "Just kill them as fast as possible. We will win the war if you can kill all his subordinates quickly."
"Sure. Just call me if you need help." After saying that, Nova dashed toward Finley's subordinates.
Ace then returned his attention to Finley and the others. "Old men, let's continue our fight now."
"It seems like you are tired of living and wish to die quickly." Jalen responded. "Aren't you tired of constantly saying the same thing? Or do you think you look cool after saying something like that?" Ace had heard these words many times since earlier, so he was tired of hearing it. "Then, I will kill you now." fifty swords appeared and floated behind him after Jalen raised his sword high in the air. Each sword had a different shape and gleamed in different colors like a rainbow. When Jalen put his other hand on the grip of his sword, these fifty swords merged into one and created a huge sword. "Die!" the giant sword fell toward Ace after Jalen swung his sword vertically, trying to cut Ace in half.
Ace did not stay still.
He opened his mouth and created a giant ball of ice.
Thunderous sounds reverberated in the entire area, and the shockwaves spread throughout the battlefield when their attacks met, destroying the entrance gate and houses near it.
Finley and the others did not give Ace time to rest and attacked him continuously.
Like before, their fight was so fierce.
Due to how intense their fight was, some of their subordinates even died because of the impact of their fight.
But none of them cared about it because they were at war.
As they were fighting fiercely, Fyre looked at Lieutenant General Ben's corpse with a disappointed face.
He thought Lieutenant General Ben was a powerful awakener because he was a high-ranking person, but he was wrong. Lieutenant General Ben could only give him ten minutes of excitement. After that, he was beaten up continuously before he finally died at Fyre's hands.
On the other hand, Hyzi also felt the same way.
Previously, he fought an awakener at the Grandmaster rank from the Wilson family.
However, that person could not give him excitement at all because he died so fast. That person even could not injure him.
Hyzi felt like he was fighting a kid when he faced that person. "He was already at 4-star, yet he died so easily. Tch! What a weakling!" After saying that, Hyzi looked in the direction where Ace was fighting his enemies.
'Leader is facing four people, and it seems like they are the strongest among the humans.'
A desire to join the fight suddenly arose within him because facing an awakener at the Grandmaster rank could not give him excitement.
"Hyzi, these humans are so weak. It makes me furious." Fyre said as he walked toward Hyzi.
"Did your opponent die easily too?" Hyzi inquired. "Yes." Fyre responded, "He was a weak warrior."
"My opponent was also a weakling." After saying that, Hyzi shifted his gaze to his dead opponent.
"Hey, Hyzi. The people fighting our boss look strong. How about we fight one of them?" of course, Fyre knew the people fighting against Ace were already at the Exalted rank. However, he was not afraid of them because he always wanted to fight a powerful opponent.
"Hey, why didn't you answer my question?" Fyre uttered.
"Sure." Hyzi answered.
"Good! Let's go and fight one of them." After saying that, Fyre rushed toward Finley and the others.
At the same time, Jalen was about to use one of his powerful skills to attack Ace. But Fyre suddenly appeared on his right side and kicked his face hard before he could attack Ace, causing Jalen to be thrown several meters from where he was.
Finley and the others were shocked by the appearance of Fyre. It was a fight between the strongest, so they did not expect him to interfere with their fight.
'A lowly 4-star magical beast dare to interfere with our fight?'
They smoldered with resentment because a subordinate had to fight a subordinate, not interfere with a fight between bosses. When Fyre noticed their angry expressions, he spoke, "Why are you guys making faces like that? We were enemies, so what I just did was not wrong." "You!" Michael was about to explode with rage when he saw Fyre's attitude.
Fyre ignored Michael and the others before finally walking closer to Ace. "Boss, can I fight one of your enemies?"
Instead of answering Fyre's question, Ace inquired, "They are already at 5-star. Are you sure about your decision? You can die, you know?" Before Fyre could answer Ace's question, Hyzi uttered, "Leader, I will join hands with him."
Ace looked at Fyre before returning his attention to Hyzi again.
'I know they are strong, but can they kill an awakener at the Exalted rank?'
He was not sure the two of them could kill an awakener at the Exalted rank.
But when he saw the determination in their eyes, he decided not to stop them. "Alright, you can fight one of them."
"Thank you, boss." Without waiting for another second, Fyre rushed toward Jalen.
'Haha. This will be exciting.'
His heart was beating with excitement because he would fight a powerful enemy.
"Human, your opponent is me now. Don't disappoint me." Fyre said as he laughed.
"Damn it!" Jalen was enraged with Fyre's attitude. Fyre was only at 4-star, yet he dared to challenge him as if he was a weakling.
'Does he think I'm weak?'
He felt about to burst from rage when he saw Fyre.
Jalen looked at Finley and the others. "You guys can continue fighting that dragon. I will help you after killing this lowly beast."
"Alright." Finley and the others responded in unison.
"Lowly beast, I will kill you now." after saying that, Jalen rushed toward Fyre.
