Ki! Ki! Ki!
A different kind of mana was also let loose in the surroundings as a result of the giant sword attack. It created a peculiar sound as it manifested, like that of a hundred birds chirping together.
It was a non-elental mana that had been influenced by sword comprehension.
This sword aura would split things randomly whenever it was amassed at a particular place in a certain density. Its only job was to cut everything in its path. The sword aura stayed dominant in the area and damaged it so more before it was summoned to a single place.
The sword aura started gathering near Oliver's team the next mont. It created a barrier around the rankers and protected them from any potential harm. The more the sword was used, the more the sword would be created and the more the barrier would get strengthened.
This was the beauty of the battle formation that Oliver had employed. The barrier prevented Eren and his mates from randomly attacking any of the rankers involved in the formation. Of course, the barrier could not be strengthened infinitely as it depended upon the amount of sword aura the mbers could keep under their control through the formation's help. Still, it wasn't sothing that could be overco easily by Eren's side.
It was unknown what had happened to Eren and those who stood beside him.
But every storm cos to an end and every heart of silence is pierced by the sounds of life eventually.
In due ti, the agitated mana in the surroundings was pacified and the dust settled. Layla and Ivor realized what had really transpired at the place.
They saw that Eren, Argo, and Kirin were still standing in the sa position they did before the attack. But the ground on which they stood had changed drastically.
Two deep trenches had been ford on the ground at either side of Eren. These trenches intersected just a few ters away from where Eren stood and expanded in two directions, making it look like Eren was standing inside a V-shape plot with steep edges.
The ground beyond the steep edges had been depressed to such an extent that two mini valleys shrouded in darkness had been ford. Just a series of attacks from the elental sword had changed the landscape by a huge margin.
Kirin had goosebumps on her skin being so close to such attacks. She was not scared by the intensity of the attacks themselves but the way she chose to remain unresponsive in the face of such an attack. After all, it was easier to react in situations like these than to watch it happen around you like so distant bystander.
The five mbers of Oliver's team had smiles plastered on their faces when they saw Oliver attack Eren's side with the elental sword. Since it was Oliver who was controlling the formation, they didn't really know what he was going to do with his attacks. They thought that the Hound had attacked Eren intending to harm him for real.
Oliver too couldn't help having a light smile on his face as he watched the might of a battle formation unfolding in front of him. Just like Eren had guessed, this was a makeshift formation he was using with the help of the array disk. But that didn't an that the formation itself was lesser in grade than the one he was supposed to use from the get-go.
Oliver was very satisfied with the outco of his attacks for the most part. But then he saw Eren standing his ground, uncaring of the outco he had generated. The Hound's face darkened when he realized his scare tactics don't work on the butcher.
Argo jumped over Eren's head and walked up to the edge of what looked like a cliff. He roared at Oliver and his forces before speaking up in a deep voice that almost sounded human.
"Bitch, you think we are so cowards who'd wet their undies and run away from this pansy ass move? Imma drive that sword up yours if you don't attack us for real."
The challenge Oliver posed at Argo made him highly reactive. The fragnt of demonic soul inside him was irked by Oliver's move. For a mont, nobody talked. Argo's listeners didn't even get most of his threats. It was only Eren who had sothing to comnt on.
"But you don't even wear any undies, you fat cat. And we can all see your "sword" hanging freely."
Another round of deafening silence ensued. Argo made an ugly lion face before speaking in an irritated voice.
"Damn it, boss... don't be raining on my parade, yo. Help a brother out here."
Argo then looked between his legs and smirked before saying proudly.
"And I'm not ashad of my impressive manhood. Naah. I oughta be charging people for taking a peek at my family jewels."
Argo shook his mane like a lion king and stared at Oliver's force fiercely as he said that. Eren chuckled at Argo's statent before saying in contempt.
"Heh! Dream on. In what universe would people pay for seeing other people naked?
Especially if the naked one is you, you buffoon."
Argo stomped his two front legs on the ground before voicing his resolve.
"Wanna bet? One day, bitches would sell their left kidneys to see and I'mma sell my nudes to the highest bidder. If not in this world, then so other world where I can pull off sothing like that.
Just gotta keep using the demonic possessions till I find a place to monetize my blessings. Knowtamsayin! Easy peasy lemon squeezy, baby.
In fact, I know just the right world..."
Argo stopped what he was saying midway and looked confused as if he was trying to rember so lost mory stored inside the demonic soul fragnt. He then shook his head as if restarting his thought process anew.
"Anyways... There ain't no job too difficult for . Ain't no task too tall for . Ain't no chick too hot for .
I am a legit demon prince, god damn it. I can do whatever the fuck I want."
Argo blew out so steam through his nose after declaring his convictions. The demon beast had managed to look pissed and proud at the sa ti.
"Monetizing your talent through so kinda auction, huh? Well... I'm all for it. But what if the highest bidder of yourâ€" "nudes"? Or whatever that is, turns out to be a man?"
Eren asked a counter question in a casual tone, seemingly forgetting all about Oliver's team. Argo looked at Eren scornfully. The angry-looking demon beast was about to say sothing to Eren with passion when they all heard an even angrier voice coming from the enemy camp.
"SILENCE!"
Oliver finally couldn't take Eren and Argo going on a different tangent anymore.
