"Oh? A beast raid?" this caught Nezu's attention, 'Its a week from now and a one day journey towards the town'.
Since if he continue to stay here it would become a little problematic so why not go to other places now and start to explore this world.
Ripping the pinned poster Nezu unhurriedly walk out from the Mercenary Guild.
"Ok you know the plan let's go" in a dark corner of the lobby was two men in Black clothes then vanish quietly.
The other spies also started to follow Nezu and reporting his every move.
The information about Nezu was already spreading from different powers in Westia. And the one responsible for this was the strongest Merchant Clan, Freed Clan. When Teressa came back from their mission she quickly told her father about what happened in the forest and being an old sly fox merchant, Bern Freed, then began selling the information for some benefits.
But Nezu wasn't bothered by the movements of the top clans and just unhurriedly walk towards the inn and rest for the night.
The next day.....
Nezu then began preparing for his journey and leave this place, while he was walking out of the gates he notice that the amount of people following him secretely last night was increasing. Nezu just shrug and not bothered by it anymore and just walk out of the gates.
'if i just walk to the next town it will lengthen my journey.' when Nezu was thinking how he can get a ride, those people who are secretely following him slowly appeared.
'Oh? they appeared early than I expected I'm not even that far from the gates yet,' Nezu just shook his head while still continue walking.
"Sir wait" a cold voice suddenly came from Nezu's back.
"Hmm? Yes you talking to me?" Nezu turn around then raise a brow while feigning ignorance. Nezu now have a good look at this people, 5 men with black clothing.
"We'd like to invite you to become a guest at our clan" the man in the middle said with still his cold voice.
"Oh? what clan?" Nezu ask 'confusely'.
"If you accept and come with us I'll tell you" the man said with a tone that he won't tell anymore than that.
"Really? But what if I don't come with you what would you do then?" Nezu said with a carefree smile.
These group of 5 was from the Pyre Clan they've been following Nezu since yesterday, they initially plan to 'invite' Nezu once he came out from the gates since the people following him increases.
The other group was also looking at this scene. Some cursed for being a step too late and other just watch from the side.
"Sir should we help that man? that group was the elite team of Pyre Clan and they even let their Low Master Rank Elementalist to lead the team, he would have a hard time fighting them" a man with a silver white light armor said.
"Hmm let's see how things played out if the man really can't handle it we shall lend him a hand." a middle age man that's also wearing a silver white light armor said.
They are from the Silver Clan and they was ordered to politely invite Nezu, but they was still a step too late and the Pyre Clan Elite Team was already conversing with Nezu.
"You don't have a choice with this situation" the man in the middle who was the leader of Pyre Clan Elite Team, Rex, said coldly while releasing his aura to pressure Nezu.
Not even bothered by the pressure, Nezu was still carefree with a slight smile and said, "Quite overbearing are you? Well catch me first haha" Nezu then vanish from his spot, he didn't want more people to know his strength so he quickly run away and head further away from Westia.
"Futile efforts, let's go" frowning Rex was now angry and quickly follow Nezu.
The other group who was hiding also followed behind.
'I guess this place is far enough' Nezu's been running for 10 mins and he was now in a barren road.
"You finally realized it's useless to run away from us huh?" a cold voice then sounded behind Nezu.
The other group didn't bother to hide their presence anymore since this barren land is an open field they can be easily spotted so they just take each spot on huge boulders.
Nezu didn't bothered about the new groups appearing and calmly look at this group of 5 and said, "So what will you do now?"
"Humph, you should have just accepted our offer before and we might be easy with you now we can only use force to drag you from our clan." he again release his aura and the other 4 people in his team spread and sorround Nezu's escape route.
"Don't worry about them I'll handle you myself" Rex smile madly, he was a battle maniac and quite ruthless when he battle.
"You're a Master Rank Elementalist right? Why don't you materialize your Element's Spirit Form? or this would easily end." when he was battling, Rex became talkative and sometimes play with his prey.
"Let's see first if you're worth it" Nezu just smile carefreely while also slowly releasing his aura since his opponent was also a Master Rank that can use aura.
"Humph" feeling beeing mocked Rex didn't waste more time to talk to his prey and just re-enforced his whole body with aura and with a step he vanish.
Master Rank Elementalist are considered fast so lower rank Elementalist can't see their movement.
Nezu also vanish with a crack in the ground.
*BOOM*
*Crack*
Nezu and Rex meet in the middle and hit each other head on with their fist. Small shockwaves was made and the ground trembled slightly.
"Humph you're strong but not enough to defeat me" Rex then began to send more punches towards Nezu.
Both began to fight intensely with fast movements that they seem to vanish, cracks and shockwaves was made every clash, some people can't follow their fight and can only helplessly gaze at the cracks and shockwaves being made by the two monster.
"So the Master Rank Elementalist can fight this way?"
"Hupmh, it's still a warm up they didn't even use anything but fist to fight."
While the Low rank Elementalist chatted the other Master Rank can clearly see the fight.
Then..
*BAM*
*Crack*
Nezu suddenly accelerated and caught Rex off guard and was punch deep in the stomach then spat a mouthful of blood. Nezu then send an elbow towards Rex back and landed heavily in the ground leaving cracks. Nezu then want to pop Rex head with his foot but Rex quickly roll a few meters away.
"Wow you really know how to roll fast." Nezu didn't pursue Rex and just stare at him with a smile.
*PUH*
Spitting blood, Rex then wipe the blood in his mouth while glaring at Nezu.
"Hmph" Rex then now unleash his Fire Element. The sorrounding became hot and it's still rising.
"I must say i still underestimated you before so now I'll let you see my full power so be proud."
*BOOM*
Fire Energy was surging towards Rex crazily then compressed it all in his fist.
"This is my Element's Spirit Form, Fiery Gauntlet." both Rex fist was like a ball of fire. "Take this." Rex then vanish and arrived quickly at Nezu with a powerful punch.
*BOOM*
Rex Fist miss Nezu but the ground formed a deep red crater while a powerful heat spread. Fortunately Nezu quickly step back but the sudden heatwave still hit him.
"Tsk this clothes is one of my favorites you know?" Nezu shrug his clothes that was caught on fire.
"Humph" lifting both hands forward, Fire Element gush out from Rex and compress it in his hands. "Take this, Fire Blast" a beam with high temperature that grounds was burning in red color.
"Does people here so fond of Beam attacks?" Nezu remembered that the demon also use this kind of attack.
Nezu release his Aura while coating his hands forming a blade. He casually swing it then both attack meet with an explosion. 'Its hard to fight with other people who uses Elemental types. I can't even cut their attacks in half with my Elemental Power' Nezu didn't want this people to see his Destruction Element so he will just use pure Elemental Power in this fight.
"Well let's get serious."
