*Swoosh*
The arrow left the bow, targeting Tee whose back remained pressed against the wall but Tee would not be a Cosmic Pagoda realm expert if he could not evade the arrow.
Rolling over to the side, he evaded the arrow and it hit the wall with a bang, the poisonous gas quickly spreading throughout the region the Cosmic pagoda expert was in.
However, even though Tee did not allow himself to breathe in the vapor, he had not completely left the vicinity of the quickly spreading poisonous fog, it touched his hand and the green tinge that showed on his hand began to spread.
Tee's eyes widened and he quickly began to attempt fighting the fog in his system with Cosmic energy. Unleashing the might of his cosmic pagoda realm cultivation to fight the spread.
He did so successfully but had hardly a second to rejoice in the win before Sassy was striking at him with her fist. A fist that was coated with poisonous vapor.
Tee leaned to the side to dodge the blow and while his evasion was successful, Sassy raised her leg in a brilliant display of flexibility and struck into his side.
*Bam!*
"Nghh" Tee groaned as he rolled to a stop on the ground before quickly getting back on his feet to swing his spike at the oncoming lady and successfully smacked the familiar aside to smack into a wall not too far away.
Tee was filled with confidence as the strike had been made with the use of a Pagoda rank Artifact and there was no way this nude and seductive lady could survive a direct hit with no injuries.
It was why he was even more surprised when Sassy stepped away from the wall, a part of her body, specifically the part that had been hit with the spike was covered in green erald scales that had protected her like Armor.
Once Demon beasts acquire human forms, their beast forms linger even in their human forms as beast physiques to be used at will. It was similar to how humans would make use of beast physiques if they ever got the opportunity to wield one.
However, their mastery of it could never match the Demon beast whose use of the physique would be second nature as it is how they have lived and survived up until the acquisition of their human forms.
Also the stronger they beco, the stronger their beast forms (physiques) beca as well.
As a Demon beast at the Mid Stage of the Aurora beast realm, Sassy had the physical capability to stand up to humans at the peak of the realm and that was without her being Hal's familiar.
As the familiar of the blue-eyed Devil, how could she not boast of having the capability of fighting even higher than her cultivation permits?
Why would she not be capable of defeating this early-stage Cosmic pagoda expert?
Sassy smiled at Tee as the scales went on to cover her entire body and even so parts of her face before she charged at the silent man with her body exuding poisonous gasses which she used to create a thick cover for herself to better shrink and evade Tee's senses.
Only to then enlarge and once again catch him off guard.
...
*Bam!*
The battle between linda and Dee had quickly turned physical with Dee attempting to overwhelm linda with the superiority of her blades to which linda rely sneered and t full on.
In all honesty, from the mont Hal had brought out Sassy, all the Assasins already realized that they were thoroughly misinford in regards to him as he clearly had much more resources than they could have ever dreamt.
But that was Hal. What was it with this golden-eyed lady? Dee wondered.
*clang!*
That was the sound of linda sohow knowing where the dagger strikes were going to be coming from and striking at them with her sword.
Forcing Dee to take a few steps back.
The assassin could not believe how forceful linda's strikes were and how good she was in the use of her sword.
The whole point of a dagger was to be quick. To get in close to the opponent and overwhelm them with speed and dexterity that took advantage of how a sword was inappropriate for a battle in close quarters like a dagger user would prefer.
Alas, it did not seem to make a difference.
In fact, linda never actually tried to increase the distance between them to make it easier for herself but Instead made do.
Counterattacking with her fists coated with white flas whenever she could.
That was the other issue Dee had which was the danger signs the white flas were giving off in a bit of a warning to the assassin.
Already linda had managed a successful hit with the flas that showed the assassin how dangerous they could be as they burned her not only on the outside but on the inside of her body as well.
That said, linda had been cut a few tis as well. Experiencing first hand, the sharpness of a Pagoda rank artifact.
The daggers had only grazed her skin but that had been more than enough to cause her injury.
The Dane woman was sure that if the strike ever hit better, it could very well prove fatal. Much more fatal than she could hope to recover from.
Not to ntion that any brief mont of weakness was going to be the perfect opportunity for the assassin to take advantage.
After a particular separation between the two... A separation where linda was the one looking worse for wear, the Dane lady quickly retrieved a nding pill which she swallowed to heal all injuries she had sustained at that point and give her a clear head to do what she was planning to attempt next.
Which was the full unleashing of her insight level comprehension into the Ordinance of flas that saw her surrounded by a torrent of white flas that filled Dee with trepidation.
This happened almost at the sa ti Hal was going through a transformation as he faced the leader of the trio.
After he made the bold statent that Sassy would put Tee in his place, Hal had focussed his attention completely on the leader of the trio.
"You're a peculiar young man" the leader said but he said it with a frown as opposed to the confident smile had been having up until this point.
"Why, because I can open a portal and call for reinforcents? Because I am not truly alone?" Hal asked with a smirk.
The leader shrugged,
"As I said, 'peculiar'. That said, you have your helpers occupied and will be facing all on your own. With nobody to help you" the leader said.
"Ah but I don't need anybody to help " Hal said before he stretched his hand and released terrifying fiendish energy as he summoned the Fiendish Armant.
The large blood-red broadsword called Executioner.
At the sight of the sword, the leader frowned and put his guard up.
"What do I call you?" Hal asked suddenly.
"What?" The leader was caught off guard by the question which Hal decided to repeat,
"What's your na? Is it Bee? It's Bee, isn't it? I an the girl is Dee and the silent dude is Tee so you have to be Bee" he said when a grin.
"I am called Cee" the leader said and Hal blinked and almost burst into laughter.
"My goodness, who nad you guys?" Hal asked with a chuckle.
Cee frowned,
"They are code nas. Code nas picked out with the first letter of our nas" he said as he retrieved a green saber from his spatial ring. A saber that he charged with Cosmic energy and showcased as being at the Pagoda rank like the weapons of his colleagues.
'Business must be good' Hal thought as he knew the pagoda rank weapons could not possibly co cheap.
That said, they could have been stolen.
They could also have been spoils from their assassination.
Either way, this trio knew what they were doing.
"It's a sha though" Hal said.
"What is?" Cee asked.
"The fact that your bright futures get cut short. All because you took a job you should not have even considered."
As he spoke, Hal's skin turned crimson marred with dark lis while his eyes turned black and released occasional bursts of nightmarish black fog as he took on the mid-World Devil form. Excluding the wings.
Cee's eyes widened,
"What the hell are you?" He asked as an illusionary pagoda with two floors appeared behind him as he also summoned his Cosmic Armant which was a dark sword that he planned to dual wield with his Saber Artifact.
Instead of replying, Hal gripped Executioner even tighter before dashing at Cee with a speed that caused the assassin's eyes to widen in shock even as he reacted fast enough to block the attempted strike with his sword Cosmic armant before swinging his Saber at Hal's midsection.
Hal pushed away from Cee.
Enough to avoid the saber strike but not too far that he could not leap to the assassin's side and reattempt the strike.
Once again, the assassin blocked the hit but Hal was not bothered as he grabbed Cee's sword hand by the wrist with his own free hand.
The assassin was briefly confused as to why Hal grabbed him and then, the Devil unleashed his large bat-like crimson wings which he flapped and flew upward, dragging Cee along.
Taking the assassin to the sky where he would be without a foothold and completely at his rcy....
