Erik had to dodge flying rubble and debris kicked up by the intense fighting.
Explosions rocked the building, causing walls and ceilings to crumble.
However, Erik had to be careful because he couldn't kill him despite wanting to. Erik knew this was his chance to capture and interrogate a high-ranking blackguard.
Even if the man wasn't fully inford about the overall situation, it was clear he knew things few people knew.
For example, what did the blackguards know about him? What were his and his squad's exact orders when they attacked him in Caelora City? Who were those coordinating the effort to capture him?
Though all those questions had to wait for now, he had to capture him first, but Erik was planning on taking his sweet ti.
But capturing Montum alone was a problematic move, simply because he had to bring him outside sohow, and doing so alone while having to avoid deadly attacks would not be simple. Besides, there were two other n with Montum.
If they were leaving secretly, as the n were doing, it ant they had at least the sa rank as him, and that was an excellent turn of events.
"Are you going sowhere?"
Montum and the other two n turned around, but they saw no one.
"Ah... Confusion... It's a funny thing, considering who the confused one is. You used to be those who knew everything and everyone, but now you don't even know who is in front of you."
Montum and the other two n could see no one. Imdiately, they understood soone with an invisibility brain crystal power was there, behind, beside, or in front of them. "Who are you? Show yourself if you have the galls!" One of the two n said, Judging by the voice, this man was old. Not that Erik really cared; he had no rcy for the blackguards. "I'd rather not, but I suggest you avoid trying to run, or I will be forced to break your legs." "It's pretty bold of you to say that since you have a brain crystal power that allows you to hide only," the other blackguard said.
Montum was remaining silent, but he already understood how dire the situation was, and that was because he recognized the voice behind the mysterious man hiding from their sight. Imdiately, he started channelling mana. His powers worked best with single targets, but they could also influence an area of effect, and since he couldn't see the man in front of him, influencing an area was his best chance at fighting him.
Of course, Erik read the man's mind and knew exactly where Montum's powers reached. "Oh... Montum, you still think I don't know how your powers work? I learned it a long ti ago. Both of us know I can counter it."
"Perhaps, but it's still good to ss up your movents. A single mistake could prove fatal, after all. You should know it well."
"Who are you talking to, Montum? Who is the guy hiding?"
But the man didn't reply. He didn't have ti to make his mind wander into useless thoughts now. Montum had to flee, and he knew that.
