Minota was well aware of the power that novice had. He had activated a high-ranking power. Before Minota met him, he only had the power to make a force field around himself.
Of course, with that power alone he had walked through the middle of the battlefield and left without any wounds. Ellic had been crazy about killing him and ran toward him. He had gotten himself and his team killed.
However, this time the novice had a much more evolved form of that power. If he transferred the field to a hero, that hero became much more powerful. Warren had thought he could kill Artlan and attacked him, but he got killed.
The novice could control the battle's outcome. He must kill whoever had that power. He must kill him while he was still a novice, so he could not reincarnate, and his power would disappear forever.
His own novices did not use their power on heroes, but instead used it on other novices. He had to kill that novice now.
Even if he lost this battle, he would come back and win the next.
Minota had the novice in his sights and lowered his body and stomped the ground. One rush would kill him.
"Woo, woo, woo!" Crying out loud, Minota stomped on the ground.
---
Junhyuk froze as he saw Minota rushing toward him. The minion's defensive wall would not hold out against Minota's rush, and the heroes who could help him were too far away, so he couldn't trust the heroes for help.
He had already used his field on Artlan and still needed time for the next use.
Junhyuk was thinking hard when Minota stomped the ground. He thought Minota might take a while considering his huge size, but Minota closed in in the blink of an eye.
As Minota's size became larger to him, Junhyuk jumped sideways, but he did not have enough speed. If this continued, Minota would hit his lower body, and would kill him for sure.
Junhyuk really wished he could move six more feet. Then, he could be sure he would escape Minota's rush.
Thump, thump, thump!
A loud noise blasted, and Junhyuk rolled on the ground. He did not know what was taking place, but he knew he had escaped Minota's rush.
Junhyuk sighed out of relief and lifted his head. That's when he saw Minota stop rushing and lift his paws.
Junhyuk rolled away quickly.
Bang!
Where Junhyuk had been, Minota's paws got stuck on the ground up to his ankle. If he hadn't rolled, he would have died. Junhyuk rolled and saw Minota's ankle and swung his sword. He thought he could cut his opponents Achilles' heels and buy more time.
Clang!
His sword bounced off Minota's ankle as if Minota was scoffing at his attempt. Junhyuk was really surprised and put away his sword when Minota lowered his head and smiled.
"I got you."
Minota's paws came forward to grab Junhyuk's neck, but Junhyuk stayed on the ground and rolled to the side.
Crack!
He saw a piece of the ground being torn right next to him and thought if he were to be grabbed by the neck, he would surely die. His hair stood up, and he concentrated really hard.
Junhyuk saw Minota sweeping the ground with his paws and rolled to the side once more, but he couldn't really escape. Minota grabbed him by the ankle.
As Minota grabbed Junhyuk by his ankle, he laughed hard.
His armor was torn and his ankle shattered. Junhyuk swung his sword at Minota who lifted him up to the level of his eyes.
Thuck!
However, Minota was a hero. Basically, Junhyuk had a different physique from Minota. He grabbed Junhyuk with ease and twisted him.
Crack!
"Argh!"
Junhyuk moaned in pain. You could call it lucky, but his arm hadn't been torn off yet. Minota did not wait longer and opened his mouth wide. There were three rows of sharp teeth inside.
"Ox, you have teeth like a shark."
Junhyuk cursed, thinking he might die soon. It was the first time he cursed at a hero. He was feeling good about the cursing when, suddenly, a fire spear flew in and hit Minota's face.
Bang!
When Junhyuk escaped Minota's first rush, he wasted some time, which allowed Vera to catch up. Black fire sparks flew around Minota's face and exploded. His face was still burning.
Minota already knew Vera was coming and tried to chew and swallow Junhyuk.
Artlan was also there, hitting Minota with his knee. If he had been holding his saber, he would've attacked with it, but, since he did not, he used his knee.
Uck!
Minota's jaw shook loudly, then Artlan took a hold of his neck and rode on Minota. Artlan used both of his thighs and started trying to strangle him. Minota had a really thick neck, and Artlan was barely able to do it.
Even MInota could not chew Junhyuk up while being strangled. He lifted Junhyuk again, then threw him on the ground. He thought throwing him on the ground would kill him.
Junhyuk was about to hit the ground when Diane took a hold of him and slid away.
Junhyuk gritted his teeth in pain and looked around. Making a loud noise, Minota tried to grab Artlan when Nudra jumped high and stepped on his head.
Thuck!
Minota bit his own tongue and his ankle got stuck in the ground. Then, Halo ran toward him and cut Minota's side.
"Wooaargh!"
Minota screamed loudly and fell to one knee. That's when Diane placed Junhyuk on the ground and shoot an endless amount of arrows at him. After being hit by Diane's arrows, Minota landed with both knees on the ground, and Artlan quickly retreated.
All of a sudden, Minota split in two. One Minota was facing Artlan, and the other Minota stood up from the ground and started to run toward Diane.
Junhyuk watched Minota's doppelganger art, and knew he would attack him even if he was facing death. He had Diane next to him, but she couldn't run away while she carried him.
Junhyuk had difficulty getting up, but had a smile on his face. The cooldown time for his force field was over.
He placed himself in front of Diane and created a force field. The ivory force field appeared when Minota's heavy rush started.
Bang!
The force field was able to withstand all types of attacks, but the amount of physical force caused the field to slide back. As the falling Junhyuk watched, the force field bounced off like a soccer ball and hit a tree.
Suddenly, Minota had an arrow piercing him from chin to forehead. Underneath Minota's feet, Diane was aiming her bow up.
Diane's last arrow took Minota's life. Minota disappeared, and Junhyuk sighed in relief.
He was still alive, but his wounds were serious. As Junhyuk tried to get up, suddenly, an enemy minion came holding his axe over his head trying for a strike.
Bong!
The force field was still up, and the minion looked flabbergasted and repeated his strike at Junhyuk.
Bong!
When the axe bounced off one more time, the minion had his neck sliced. Halo was standing behind him. He looked like his job was done and turned and walked away.
"Thank you."
Halo did not stop and just kept walking away. Junhyuk realized the force field had disappeared and slowly got up. His right ankle was broken, and his right arm didn't feel like an arm, and it was broken into pieces.
Junhyuk looked at the battlefield. All the enemy minions were already dead. However, only five allied minions remained. When he was attacked by Minota, the enemy minions managed to kill a lot of allied minions.
Junhyuk saw one of the five survivors running toward him. It was Sarang. She got to Junhyuk and helped him get up and asked:
"Are you OK?"
"Since I'm alive, I'm OK."
It really was OK. It was good to be alive. If he had died, he would be in a coma.
However, his condition was really bad. He had broken his arm and his leg on the same side of his body and couldn't walk.
.
Artlan approached him. He had a limp arm, but he did not feel any pain and looked over at Junhyuk.
"You stayed alive."
"Yes."
"By the way, did you just activate another power?"
"What?"
Junhyuk did not understand, and Vera walked to him and whispered:
"Yes, just a moment ago you activated spatial relocation."
"It was only for two meters, but still you knew you couldn't escape Minota's rush, so you activated spatial relocation, saving yourself," Artlan continued.
Junhyuk did not realize he had activated another power. Vera looked at Junhyuk and asked:
"Do you want to do it again?"
"In my condition?"
He had broken an arm and a leg. Even if he could spatial relocate, he would end up on ground.
Artaln calmly looked at Junhyuk and said:
"How many gold coins do you have now?"
"Me? Well, during this Hanta, I used force field two... no, three times, so I should have 1000G?"
Vera was surprised by what Artlan had said.
"Really? Don't you want to take the watchtower?"
Artlan tapped on his broken arm and said:
"We are not in a good situation. I should take him to the dimensional merchants and make him take a potion."
"Just the four of us? Halo is also heavily wounded."
"There is nothing we can do. We should get treatment first."
Vera sighed deeply and said:
"OK. We will push for the second watchtower. Hurry back!"
"Sure."
Artlan put Junhyuk's arm around his shoulder and said:
"Dimensional merchants have potions. One costs 500G. Since you are not sliced to bits, you should be able to get treated. So, you should get a potion."
One potion cost 500G. It was a high price, but it was highly effective. He should get a potion for sure. His soul's wounds would transform into physical wounds.
Sarang asked carefully:
"Can I go with you?"
Artlan looked at Sarang and shook his head.
"No. You should follow Vera and try to learn more from her."
Junhyuk agreed with him. While being carried on Artlan's shoulder, Junhyuk lifted his head to look at Sarang.
"Artlan is right. Follow Vera and learn."
"OK. Stay alive, and we will see each other again."
Junhyuk lifted his left hand and said:
"I will get healed and come back."
Artlan tapped Junhyuk and said:
"You will bite your tongue. Close your mouth."
Junhyuk closed his mouth, and Artlan took off running. Junhyuk was on Artlan's back when he saw gold coins on the ground and said:
"There are some gold coins there!"
"You will bite your tongue!"
Junhyuk looked at the gold coins left by the enemy minions he had killed by himself.
"We don't have time. Forget about such paltry sums."
Paltry to you!
