The mont before Azalea took action, the sound of a couple of system alerts went off in Izroth's head.
[System Alert: The passive skill «> has been activated.[]
[System Alert: Beginning analysis of the skill .
As Azalea carried out her assault on the players from Defiant, Izroth used the Master of Skills' passive, Skill Analysis on Azalea's movent skill, Dance of Phantoms.
After Izroth activated Skill Analysis, a transparent book appeared before him with the words "Dance of Phantoms" on its cover. When he reached out to touch the book, his hand went right through it.
'It is stated that the process can take up to 24 hours, depending on the rank of the skill. Dance of Phantoms is an SSS-ranked movent skill, so the ti should not be short, but... What is causing it to progress this quickly?'
Hovering above the transparent book was a progression circle with a percentage at its center. This kept track of how far along the Skill Analysis of the skill was.
At the mont, Dance of Phantoms was already at 12%. However, it had not been that long since Azalea started to use the skill.
'It is not just a ti fra that it gives. It seems that the more that I observe the skill in use, the faster its progression status moves up.'
This was not Izroth's first ti using Skill Analysis. He had been testing it out whenever he got the chance and built up quite the Skill Archive. But, it was his first ti using Skill
Analysis on an SSS-ranked skill that was not his own.
Whenever he used Skill Analysis on his own skills, most of the ti, its progression status instantly filled up. Of course, Izroth believed that this had to do with his own mastery and understanding of his skills since he was the one who used them.
Izroth casually waved his hand as the transparent book in front of him disappeared. The progress bar was still filling up; however, the book itself was rely a visual aid of sorts.
As Izroth watched on, he could only sigh in disappointnt. It was just as he thought-these players from Defiant were not enough to truly test Azalea's newest abilities.
"The gap between elite players and core players among the top guilds is too vast. I suppose we should end things here.'
"Azalea, we have other matters to attend to," Izroth said calmly.
As if understanding Izroth's attention, Azalea increased the ferocity of her attacks. At the sa ti, sothing bizarre happened as a second Azalea seed to appear out of nowhere. It was unlike the physical clones produced by her Phantom Image skill. Rather, this second Azalea appeared just as real as the first!
The instant the second Azalea erged, it used Dance of Phantoms, causing two phantom- like apparitions to weave throughout the battlefield and strike at the players of Defiant.
In the blink of an eye, the thirty plus players from Defiant had fallen to one.
Defeaning Silence had a look of bewildernt and disbelief on his face as he stood there speechless.
It had not even been thirty seconds since the fight began, yet he was the last person standing from Defiant. No, to call it a fight was not correct. This kind of situation was no battle at all- it was a one-sided slaughter!
How were they supposed to deal with a monster like this?! Unless the core players of Defiant made a move, there was no way they could fight over this ore cave!
The strangest thing was that Defeaning Silence had never heard of a player with such a terrifying class being a part of Sleeping Gardenia.
"Wait! Just, wait a second! We're willing to share the ore cave! We'll only take thirty percent, the rest can be left to Sleeping Gardenia!" Defeaning Silence spoke with great haste.
Starry Aster looked on coldly at Defeaning Silence as a look of disgust appeared in her eyes. Not even one minute ago, he was ready to claim the ore cave by force regardless of the territorial agreent. Yet, even at the edge of defeat, he was still shaless enough to try to claim a piece of what was never his, to begin with!
"That will not be possible. My guild leader gave clear instructions-do not let Defiant lay a single finger on what belongs to our Sleeping Gardenia. This ore cave is ours. Defiant will never see a single ore coming from that place." Zinnia stated firmly.
"The other top guilds won't stand for this! I'll tell everyone! I'll-!"
Woosh!
Before Defeaning Silence could finish his words, both Azaleas attacked from the left and right sides, passing by one another. The next mont, nurous cuts could be seen forming on Defeaning Silence's body before he turned into countless particles.
Just like that, the players from Defiant had been successfully eradicated.
Both Azaleas deactivated their Dance of Phantoms and looked at each other.
anwhile, Zinnia released a sigh of relief. If these two were not here, the players from Sleeping Gardenia stationed in Kifa Karsts would have had to suffer potentially heavy losses to fight off those from Defiant. It would have devolved into a full-on territory war. Though Zinnia's relief only lasted a brief mont as a troubled look ford on her face. Since Defeaning Silence and Defiant had been chased off, it was almost certain that they would let the other top guilds in on the existence of the ore cave. Once that happened, Sleeping Gardenia would not be able to defend the ore cave with their current forces alone.
"Aster, take your group and secure the ore cave. Make sure there is only one way in and out. I will contact the guild leader and update her on our situation. With the guild leader's foresight, I am sure that she will send a proper team to manage the ore cave and its securities." Zinnia stated.
"Yes, section leader." Starry Aster responded as she took her leave with the other players present.
There was a bit of dejection written on Starry Aster's face, and she was not the only one. Many of those on Sleeping Gardenia's side had the sa look of dejection or defeat on their faces. It was not because they were not confident in handling the likes of Defeaning Silence and those he brought with him. Instead, it had to do with witnessing Azalea's overwhelming performance.
She alone was enough to crush Defeaning Silence and Defiant's overbearing stance. That kind of strength-how were they supposed to compete with sothing like that? Zinnia could sense the heavy atmosphere around the mbers of her Sleeping Gardenia. However, she could only shake her head. In truth, she understood how everyone felt perfectly. Unfortunately, nothing could be done except to play to one's strengths. Not everyone could be the strongest or the smartest, but that did not an one had no purpose. It was rely a point of finding out what that purpose was.
Zinnia set her sights on Izroth and Azalea, who were in the middle of a conversation. She then opened up her system interface to update Mariposa on their status.
"Hm?" Zinnia's brows rose curiously as she received a ssage from one of the Sleeping Gardenia players in Kifa Karsts.
At the sa ti, Izroth had already approached the two Azaleas right as the battle ended.
"So, this is part of the new trait you received from consuming the Self Awakening Pill. How interesting." Izroth comnted.
'Even with my Energy Vision Sense, I can't distinguish the two.'
