Felix took a deep breath. 'Kh. Repelling them alone is already hard and I'm still occupied with this thought. But I can't do anything without it…'
Felix waved his blade, creating a circular sword strike to repel the four King Class Monsters.
Three King Class Monsters ended up taking it head-on and got pushed back, but those three simply slowed down the expansion of the energy, allowing the fourth King Class Monster to use that opportunity to approach Felix from above.
"!!!" Felix hurriedly raised his sword, blocking the enemy's paw. But the strike was so powerful that it launched him back to the ground.
"Kh." Felix gnashed his teeth while complaining inwardly, 'What can I do? Even though he said to evolve, what can a man like do? I'm just an assassin, not a…Ah!' The instant he realized it, Felix's field of vision completely changed.
It might be because he now saw everything from the ground where he could see the other battlefield that he saw sothing different.
'He never told to evolve my strength. There was no way a smart man like him wouldn't know how hard it is to achieve a breakthrough in strength.
'It must an sothing else… and that was probably why he gave the leader position in the last war. He wanted to evolve not as a fighter, but as a commander.
'And for the commander…' Felix beca silent. It felt like the world slowed down for a while.
He could recall a lot of mories about the previous war. He didn't realize it at that ti, but even though he had told the others that he wasn't smart enough to lead the group, he still gave a lot of good insight like that of a leader.
Even Agata and Rea felt a bit better after listening to his encouragent and way of thinking.
In that instant, his field of vision beca bigger. Instead of the four King Class Monsters around him, he could feel the presence of King Class Monsters on other battlefields.
'That's right. Sir Leonardo must be the one guiding Ava. And what is he planning to do…' Felix thought. He was looking around while fighting the King Class Monsters.
Although it was hard to see it from here, he noticed the small change happening on the other side of the battlefield. Yes, it was Rea, who seed to be doing sothing else.
And it started with the Shadow King's attack that ca his way.
'Huh? Why did the Shadow King attack ? No, wait. Rea must be the one giving the plan… No matter how hard I think, it's impossible for to understand what both Sir Leonardo and Rea are thinking. But what do they want from ? I might have experienced so changes with the current perspective, but I can't do anything as a commander…'
Felix gritted his teeth. He had to think sothing fast before the attack ca to him.
'No, wait. Theo only tells to show the world that I'm his second-in-command. But he never tells to abandon my original path.' Felix widened his eyes in shock as if he had realized sothing.
And as an assassin, Felix had taken out most of his targets without them realizing it. anwhile, the current four King Class Monsters around him were already aware of his attacks and presence.
So, it was impossible for them to ambush them. In that instant, he finally understood his real target.
A leader and an assassin… At first, he thought it was impossible to combine both. But seeing how Theo could beco anything made him realize it was just foolish thinking. If he put his mind to it, he could beco anything.
With the new insight he got as a leader, his experience as an assassin showed him the real target and mission.
'Hahaha… that person is truly amazing. I know that I can't beco like you, but please let stay as your most trusted man… Master.' Felix suddenly raised his blade while pouring a lot of Magic Power into it.
"!!!" The four King Class Monsters were alard by the sudden movent. After all, it looked like Felix was going to use sothing big. At the sa ti, there were the Shadow King's attacks that were about to reach them. Ultimately, they jumped back to regain so distance, but they didn't realize that was the last thing they should do.
Now that they had given him so distance, he got the ti needed. And more importantly, his line of sight beca wider.
'There…' Felix waved his blade toward one of the King Class Monsters.
The King Class Monster thought he was being targeted. So, he gathered the Magic Power to clash with this crescent-shaped sword strike. But right before he hit the sword strike, the latter suddenly split into a few smaller sword strikes.
The King Class Monster was startled, thinking Felix was trying to take him out by this cheap trick. Hence, the King Class Monster imdiately turned around, expecting the sword strikes to hit him from the back.
But surprisingly, the sword strikes disappeared as if they were never there. But the King Class Monster could feel the Magic Power left behind by those sword strikes, so the monster desperately tried to find them.
Unfortunately, the mont they realized the sword strikes, they were too late.
The sword strikes reappeared not far from the King Class Monsters. However, they were not the ones around Felix. Instead, the targets were the King Class Monsters that chased after Leonardo.
The King Class Monsters were supposed to hold back each human fighter. In fact, their number alone was enough to stop the human fighter from helping their comrades. That was why they didn't expect Felix to actually try to help others.
As a result, the sword strikes reached and cut the King Class Monsters from afar.
Not only Leonardo but Felix was also smiling.
'I have made you wait, Master. I, Felix, will show the world that I'm your second-in-command.'
