Tafel watched the lords struggle to protect their guild mbers from Vurs wide-ranged breath attack. The Fla Lord and Shadow Lord were doing the worst at it because they were lying on the ground near Vur without moving. The Lightning Lord shouldve been called the gold lord because he had placed a giant sheet of gold in front of his guild mbers and sent lightning through it, causing it to heat up and lt the incoming icicles.
Excuse , Ashley said, causing Tafel to turn her head away from the action. The Light Lord nodded at the demon. Do you have any snacks?
Tafel raised an eyebrow. I guess? Her horns flashed silver, and a portal appeared beside her. She withdrew a few mangoes and handed them to Ashley. Will that work?
Ashley took one of the mangoes and glanced down at the white dog she was holding with her left hand. She brought the mango near the dogs nose, and it took a sniff before biting into the fruit. A smile appeared on Ashleys face as she retrieved the rest of the mangoes and stuffed them into Puddles mouth, holding his jaws open. Puddles stared at Alice with his jaw unhinged, stuffed to the brim with green, red, and orange mangoes.
Tafel didnt say a word as she closed her portal and turned her attention back onto Vurs fight. Only the lords were strong enough to move under the combined pressure of Vurs gravity and Mistles imitation heavy water. Not only did they have to protect their subordinates from Vurs attacks, but a woman dressed in black armor was roaming around the battlefield, hitting the helpless people on the back of their heads with the hilt of her sword.
Wait, Tafel said and turned her head to the side. Mary was no longer standing next to her. When did she get over there? What is she doing?
Isnt that the Virtuous Hands newest weapon? Ashley asked and shrugged her shoulders, lifting Puddles, who had been slipping out of her grip, a little higher along her side. A red-haired woman wearing a pure-black set of armor. Ashley narrowed her eyes at Tafel. Didnt you say you had no connections to the Virtuous Hand?
Tafel scratched her head. At the ti, we didnt know it, so we didnt lie to you, Tafel said. Besides, Mary isnt a part of the Virtuous Hand anymore. She mightve entered the tower a little earlier than us and took over the Virtuous Hand, but when she found us, she quit and joined the Extre Heat Clan.
Ashley nodded. So, why is she beating the mbers of the elental guild alliance? she asked. Is the Extre Heat Clan going against the alliance?
Well. Tafel rubbed her chin. Technically, Vur was one of the higher-ups in the Extre Heat Clan because Deowi stepped down and forfeited his authority to Vur. Also, the statent the Martial Lord had made about Vur initiating the fight was true. From an outside point of view. Yeah. I guess we are. Once Vur finishes trouncing all the lords, the Extre Heat Clan is going to be the new ruler of tower.
How long were you planning this? Ashley asked, raising an eyebrow.
Plan? Tafel asked in return. The demon shook her head. Im sure Vur had a faint idea of doing this, but there definitely wasnt a well-thought-out plan. The opportunity presented itself, so Vur took it. To quote soone I really look up to, if you see sothing valuable on the ground, you pick it up. The title of strongest in the tower was ripe for the taking when all the lords showed up in the sa place as once.
Screams rang through the air, and Ashley turned her attention onto the battle. Vur had simply walked around the Martial Lord, ignoring the mans provocations, and picked up the Water Lord with his left paw. The man created a sphere of water around himself, but Vur poked it with his claw, and the sphere collapsed like a bubble, the water spilling onto the ground as it slipped through Vurs paw.
How are you exerting control over my water? the Water Lord asked with a defeated expression on his face. It doesnt make sense.
It makes perfect sense, Stella said, her torso popping out of Vurs snout. Youre too weak. It might be your water, but if you cant hold onto it, then theres nothing stopping people from using it against you.
The Water Lord furrowed his brow, but he wasnt given that much ti to think. Vur lifted his right paw and flicked the Water Lords forehead, knocking the man out in an instant. Vurs golden eyes crossed as he looked at the tip of his snout. How many lords are left?
You beat the Fla Lord, Shadow Lord, and Water Lord, Stella said, holding up one finger every ti she ntioned a victim. Ashley and her friend, the Wind Lord, gave up. Stella lowered her hands and nodded. That ans there are four lords left: the Martial Lord, the Lightning Lord, the Frost Lord, and, uh, one other guy.
Earth Lord! the Earth Lord shouted. Im the Earth Lord, not just so other guy!
Deedee, crush him, Stella said. After a second of no crushing occurring, Stella frowned and disappeared inside Vurs body.
Alright, alright, Diamant said from the brown runes on Vurs leg. Im going. Stop rushing .
Stellas voice echoed out of Vurs leg. Im not rushing you.
Then, if not rushing, what do you call standing there while glaring at with your hands on your hips?
Pressuring you into action.
The brown runes on Vurs leg flickered. Can you not do that?
Can you show that dirt guy whos the boss?
Vur ignored the voices and narrowed his eyes at the Frost Lord. The man gulped. Looks like Im next, huh? he asked. In that case. He dropped to his knees, pointed his face at the ground, closed his eyes, and clasped his hands over his head. Please, spare . I surrender.
Ouyang Fengs eyes bulged. Frostie!? What the hell!
