I had just realized that the damage on the barrier around the Judge was being transferred to the Knights somehow, so what I had to do was simple, finish off the 4 Knights before killing this damn Judge.
"(I have to take care of them first.)" (I)
"< Incarnation of Thunder >" (I)
I felt the Thunder Element Ki coursing through my entire body integrating into me, my body was covered in lightning and suddenly things seemed a little slower before returning to normal.
"< Thunderblade Rune >" (I)
I write the Runes on the blades of my sword and dagger before going on the attack, from their movement from before I realized that all 4 of them have the strength of a Bronze Grade Adventurer, so they must be around Lesser King Grade at the very least.
I chose the thunder element for speed and explosive power, I am outnumbered and cannot maintain my current power for long periods of time.
That's why I was the first to attack, using my speed that is a little faster than them now, I ran into their midst, piercing my sword through the eye opening in the armor with the chains while my dagger pierces an opening in the Knight's good arm with the two-handed sword.
"Damn, I should...ghhhhh!" (I)
I was knocked back by the metal ball from one of the Knights' chain before being pierced by the spear that would have gone through my chest if it hadn't dodged and hit my shoulder.
"< Claws of Thunder >" (I)
But I use my claws to break the spear as I spin away from these wretched Knights.
"Fighting the law is futile..." (Michael)
I decided to stop paying attention to this idiot, for a second I thought about asking my Familiars for help and looked at my Ship, my sister was smiling the same way she does during the beatings she calls training.
"(She didn't want to let me fight before to save my strength for that.)" (I)
"(She also said that this fight would be good practice, she wants me to fight alone.)" (I)
I knew she wanted to give me a challenge, she told me what I needed to learn in real combat against an enemy that wanted to kill me, but I didn't think she'd want to do it this way.
"(Let's see how far I can go then.)" (I)
I'm not afraid of her during training and I won't fear an arrogant coward.
I try to save my strength as I circle between the 4 Saints always dodging their attacks, I thought of trying to make them slash each other but that never happened, they always stop inches from each other.
I had also already realized that they were empty armor, trying to use the gaps in the armor to land a hit wasn't going to work, I had to think of a way to fight fast.
During the next few minutes, I was on the defensive while ignoring the arrogant comments of that damn Judge, but even so, the 4 Horsemen seemed to be guided by one mind, their attacks complemented each other making it very difficult to dodge everyone.
In one of these situations I ran around behind the Ax Knight, then a chain snagged my foot through the Axe Knight's legs, with no time to let go when a spear came overhead, I slashed my own foot to get myself release before floating it back into place and letting the healing process do the rest.
I took a few hits, broke a few bones, and one of my wings was ripped off before I realized one thing, I finally figured out a way to destroy them, the course I needed to do was leave none of the armor behind.
"< Rune of Magnetism >" (I)
I draw a Rune on their armor while dodging their attacks using my dagger and active causing them to be pulled together giving me time to back away.
"(I'm not able to use the Territory for now, it would be too much pressure for my body, so let's do it.)" (I)
I deactivated the Incarnation of Thunder and the Runes on my blades, and now what I need is a spell.
"< Corrosive Space Distortion >" (I)
"< Storm Barrier >" (I)
I use two spells at the same time creating a barrier of water rotating at high speed and inside a spatial distortion in which I activated my Corrosion Skill making the space itself acidic, of course, I also used the power of my Authority to strengthen the two spells together with my Aura.
"That should be enough..." (I)
"You fool, do you think your tricks will work?" (Michael)
"You're insufferable, just shut the fuck up..." (I)
"Damn it!" (I)
"< Dragon's Breath of Destruction >" (I)
Soon a single half-melted Giant Armor comes out of the water sphere, it was more like a Golem now, it was made of melted pieces of armor, it had 5 arms and 3 weapons being the chain, the Ax, and the Spear that now has its tip replaced by the blade of the two-handed sword looking kind of wavy.
I felt this thing trying to get out and I prepared myself before using a good part of my strength in a Multi Elemental breath attack using my Holy Power, I expected to finish him off with this attack, but he approached me very fast and when he was hit like this my attack opened a giant hole in his chest, but even so, he wasn't defeated and his chain bound me before throwing me to the ground with force.
Before I reached the ground, the large spear was thrown towards me, piercing my chest until it crossed and was stuck in the ground when it fell, forming a crater.
"< Wind Bomb >" (I)
"< Corrosive Shadow Prison >" (I)
As soon as he came to attack me I threw a compacted wind sphere into the hole in his chest before making it explode sending pieces of armor everywhere, then I use the shadows in the surroundings to suck the pieces of armor in while it continues to fall apart by corrosion.
So I look up, the panicked Judge looking my way as the barrier around him cracks more and more, so I stand and drink bottle after bottle of blood to recover faster.
"Now I will deal with you." (I)
