Chapter 205 Struggle On Two Fronts!

There was a phrase that Skullius recalled just a few moments before the showdown between his three partners and Guddhar started.

What was it again?

Ah, that’s right!

‘Sic ’em!’

He vaguely remembered something like that.

From his perspective, this was exactly what had happened to him, with Guddhar sending in his crazed solemn monkeys at him while he was down!

Unfortunately, he had been left with limited options when he was flooded by the monkeys all over.

Amidst this chaos, Skullius felt the pain from his soul damage increase. It wasn’t dying down!

Was 10% in Doom Factor 2 some form of benchmark that did not just quell itself?!

Something was wrong.

But this wasn’t the time to therapise himself. He needed to act, against the ravaging pain! Regardless of the consequences!.

A few moments later, the Yamogogofafa had flown away, leaving him free but he was tackled to the ground right before he could move away!

Some of the Monkeys pinned him down but Skullius immediately released a plume of [Evil Darkness] with his half of his remaining mana, leaving only a 100 points!

The darkness caused the monkeys that were about to slap him to pause, paralysed by it, but unfortunately, the amount had been too little to stop all the monkeys, and as Skullius didn’t maintain it, it slowly started to dissipate, allowing the monkeys to move!

With that, one of the monkeys pressed him against the ground, raised its hand and brought down a phenomenal slap!

Skullius grit his teeth and tried to struggle but ultimately failed!

Right before the slap descended however, he bit the bullet and gambled on yet another [Crude World Projection]!

With his improved tolerance towards the effects of this ability, he hoped that he could somehow spam it a second time and still retain enough strength for movement.

Furthermore, he hoped projecting himself in this other world would spare him from ‘peace.’

Skullius’ felt himself rise, the familiar dark image he assumed with dark wisps of black rising infinitely emerging!

He looked down to see his Discount cheeks ripple from the slap he had received and he grimaced.

‘Bastards!’ he grumbled.

However, there was no time for this.

He was already feeling a severe weakness that threatened to pull him back to his physical body!

The Sage Monkeys turned to the air and saw the dark image of Skullius floating above!

They were surprised and shocked, backing away with vigilance!

Skullius merely gazed at the dissipating remnants of the darkness he had just used and exerted his enhanced control and power over it in this state!

The darkness coiled around and forged a small ball, just like he had done against Jackpot.

‘Why do I like balls so much?!’ Skullius had a passing thought before twiddling his fingers as he manoeuvred the ball which shot at a speed exceeding that of sound at all the monkeys that held him, not using [Unbreakable Saint’s Will] and [Indomitable Sage’s Will]!

Within less than three seconds, five Sage Monkey’s were dead, their heads having been blown apart by the small ball of [Evil Darkness] that blew through them easily!

Skullius felt the weakness that stormed him pull him down, but he was unwilling!

He didn’t know what state his body would be in post slap, even with him not inhabiting it at the moment!

OOOOM!

Right then, Skullius felt a massive surge of mana that came from none other than Guddhar, shaking the entire mountain as the Cluster General seemed to be about to use a ridiculous skill!

Wait!

Guddhar!

The Cluster General!

Could he actually…?

Even in this…?

It could be…

Pounding pain raged within his mind from soul damage but Skullius ignored!

He had no other plays!

While the Discount Human struggled with a decision against time, the three who were still airborne shuddered at what was about to come next.

If it came with their bodies suspended in the air, they would be screwed.

Fore gritted his teeth and extended both his hands at Bron and Stylla before using all the excess strength from his Full Body Aura activation to plunge the two down to the ground!

Stylla and Bron flew before landing to safety in their own ways, looking up at Fore who began free falling, then at each other and nodding.

Both shot ahead towards Guddhar, their Full Body Auras blazing with the recency of activation as they sought to interrupt Guddhar from casting whatever skill he wanted to!

This was the perfect chance with the Yamogogofafa still on its descent and with the Cluster General not calling for it.

Guddhar growled and roared, his voice echoing through the trees. He then sucked in a deep breath, his chest puffing up as his fur glowed slightly, the massive charge of mana being very distinct in the air.

The Cluster General’s arms were brought to his chest as he steadied the flow of mana, concentrating it in his lungs!

‘No, you don’t!’ Stylla thought as she swiped, her sword burning with a steamed glow, flashy and hot steam bursting from the blade as it smashed into the Sage Monkey even while she was still twenty meters away!

The steam glow razed the fur and skin of the Cluster General, but that was it, as it failed to cleave it like it had done with the other Sage Monkeys!

Bron was not adept at long range techniques, so at this time, he figured that instead of trying to damage the General from a distance, it was better to defend from its oncoming attack which was released right after Stylla’s failed attempt at slaughtering the Monkey!

The burly man flashed before Stylla and brought his two hands before his body!

Three hazy rings blossomed from his palms and stood defensively before him in wide arcs that radiated with mana!

Guddhar let loose what he had been concocting within his chest, opening his mouth wide to release a surge of pristine silver light that with its appearance shook Mount. Sagemore and ravaged everything in sight!

It was blinding with a duality about it that it made difficult to tell if it was hot or cold and yet, the brightness it emitted was undisputed!

Without producing a scorching heat or chilling cold, the flare-like pillar of light, a Special Skill of the Greater Sage Monkey that stole all light in the atmosphere, powered through!

BOOOOOOVVVVV!

The pillar of light plundered everything as it descended down towards Bron who shielded Stylla while activating his own Special Skill!

Stylla wasn’t idling though, as she stood with a striking stance, aiming to use every bit of her Full Body Aura to augment her speed, and every bit of her mana into her Special Skill, stemming from her sword technique!

As this clash was happening though, another player approached the proximity of the battle, using the remnants of his profound power to strain through the stretch of distance…!
