Chapter 10 - CHAPTER 10 BATTLE CONCLUSION,THE CRYSTAL MINE

#Magic shot

SFX:BANG BANG

Zae and Kiri simultaneously changed their positions after firing one shot, they did so to confuse the enemies that there were many enemies instead of just two of them

Zae and Kiri had shot down nearly all the bandit's small fries and only three of the stronger ones remained.

Right after both Zae and Kiri finished up with the small fries they had planned to get back to the position they were initially in and plan the next move from there.

"There you are!! I'll be the one to end you today"

Demard shouts these out while dashing towards the position that he saw the shot coming from.

SFX:Step step step

"Come out now, you can't run from me"

Demard as he slowly walks towards a tree. He looks all over but didnt see a trace of the enemy in this case Zae

Demard rushes back to the hideout

"Nicoer!!!!"

Demard rushes back and as soon as he reaches Reson also came rushing in from the site

"Did you get them?"

Nicoer calmly asks them

"What? they didn't come for you?"

Demard with an angry and dissatisfied face

"You were fooled by the adventurers eh?"

Nicoer with a calm and serious expression while sitting down on his chair.

•In Zae and Kiri's position•

"How many did you get?"

Zae asks with a smile

"I got 23 how about you?"

Kiri replies with a smirk

"Ehh? i got 23 too, there are three more left lets see who the winner is from there"

Zae proposes with a smile

"hhmmmpph , so whats the plan?"

Kiri asks

"The last three are likely the commanders and they have domains too, one of their domain is useless to us and i can cancel the other two's domain with Reva's bloodlust domain. I guess we should just gang up on them, its a benefit for both of us"

Zae replies

"seems about right, we should move now"

Kiri nods to Zae and says these agreeing to him

" ohh by the way Noto got a new skill I'll be using that as apetiser, we move in after we use that"

Zae adds

"How much mana do you have left?"

Kiri asks

"About 85% left, what about you?"

Zae adds

"Same here, now is the right time, they should be panicking now"

Kiri adds

"Lets go"

Both of them nods and disappears into the shadows

#Shadow steps

#Copy skilks

#Cooy stats

#Infinite sword rain ×200 swords

.

Zae uses Noto's copied skill and attacks the enemy's main tent

SFX:boom shing clang

The entire hideout was destroyed in mere seconds and blasts of explosions destroyed all the tents and outposts that were remaining

"Now!!"

#Copy skills

#Copy stats

[Mana:5004/10000]

Zae copies Kiri's skills again inorder to rush towards the enemy's base

#shadow steps

Zae and Kiri both appears at the heart of the enemy's base

"Is it already over?"

Kiri rhetorically asks with a serious expression while laying his back on Zae's back to cover both of their blind spots

"No, all three of them are still alive"

Zae replies with a serious expression

"What? Even an attack of that caliber couldn't finish even one?"

Kiri with a surprised look

"Hahahahaahahah adventurers you did well!!!!!"

A domineering voice comes out of the burning tent. suddenly three shadow like figures appears from the fire and smoke with a blue colour magic barrier around them.

"As I predicted"

Zae with a serious expression

"Don't worry too much today is the day you will both die, tell me where is your friend"

Nicoer asks

"He should be done with Vormos by now"

Zae with a smirk

"What nonsense!!"

#Black curse domain

#Darkness domain

#Growth domain

The three leaders of the bandits activates their domains right at the start

"eh? why in such a hurry? "

Kiri says with a confident smile

#Shadow steps

"You'll be okay right?"

Kiri asks Zae as he was slowly vanishing from sight

"Don't worry about me"

Nicoer thinks as he looks at them with a very shocked expression

"Shocked? I'm sorry but you'll be surprised even more"

#Copy skills

#Copy stats

Zae changes from Kiri's skills into Reva's skills

#Bloodlust domain

#Time zero

As Zae activates his skills he rushes towards the three enemies standing there with their guards up. Nicoer was at the center and Reson and Demard was by his sides

SFX:swooosh

"yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh!"

Zae gave a long cry while rushing towards Nicoer while two boold red swords appear in both his hands

Demard thinks while becoming unable to move due to bloodlust aura's insane killing intent. Since bloodlust domain was already a level 2 domain the opponent's domains stood no chance.

Zae rushes in and when he was suddenly nearing in Nicoer

#Mana barrier

Nicoer uses mana barrier but Zae's trajectory changes towards Demard.

"Demard !!! dodge"

SFX:Ching slash splash

Nicoer shouts at the top of his voice while turning back just to see Zae slashing Demard down

Reson shouts while raising his staff to cast a magic towards Zae

"Noooo!!!! you scum I'll kill y....ugh"

SFX:Bang splash

"Dont forget about me so early"

Kiri appears behind Reson with his sniper on Reson's head just shooting him on the head while he was nearly going to attack Zae.

"Now you did it!!"

Nicoer with a very dreadful looking face full of anger

"What do you mean? you're next!!"

Kiri with a cold voice while pointing his gun at Nicoer

#Magic shot

SFX: bang boom

"Looks like i win this bet Zae"

Kiri with a cool smile while holding his gun by his right shoulder and slowly walking towards Zae

"SNIPE!! DODGE!!"

Zae suddenly shouts

"Tsk"

#Shadow steps

Kiri uses shadow steps to vanish from the site right before Nicoer's surprise attack could get him. Nicoer shot out from the smoke of Kiri's fire came rushing out while using his skill frenzy rush to attack. Luckily Kiri listened to Zae and dodged in time.

Since the attack on Kiri was unsuccessful he changed his trajectory towards Zae. Nicoer had a battle axe in his hands which seemed to be 5 stars.

He rushed in while holding the battle axe with both his hands towards Zae.

"Tsk.... you die first then"

SFX:clang

Zae blocks the attack with the two blood red swords which he had but the ground under his feet suddenly collapsed due to the intense pressure from Nicoer's attack

Zae as he hardly held of the attack from Nicoer even with Reva's high defence stats. Even though he has only half of that of Reva's stats combined with the stats Zae has his defence had already exceeded Reva's by nearly two times but still he took a considerable amount of damage even thoigh he blocked the attack.

#Spirit of ahn shah

the passive skill of Reva dealt 10% of the damage received by Zae back to Nicoer, since Nicoer's HP was not that much he spat blood due to the rebound damage

"AHHHHHH!!!!"

Even more force was starting to get exerted from Nicoer even if it meant getting himself killed, he was ready to kill Zae.

Zae's HP bar

[23000/30000]

"Not so fast"

#Magic shot

SFX:bang boom

Kiri's shot went straight for Nicoer's head but the defence was too high and the barrier's reflected damage was hitting back on Kiri, since it was a magic attack the reflecting damage was also magical attack and Kiri's shadow curse was ineffective

"dang it"

Kiri though he was getting damaged he didn't stop firing

Despite Kiri's repeated shot and his magic shot skill levelling up like hell, it still couldn't penetrate Nicoer's defences and all the reflecting damage was starting to affect Kiri's consciousness he nearly fell unconscious from the tree he was standing upon

"Dang it, if I don't continue Zae might die....tsk if only i had more power..."

Kiri as he was nearly falling unconscious a notification popped up

"A tad late and I would have died, now lets finish him"

"Im putting all my mana in as well, SHOOT!!"

Zae's mana bar

[0/10000]

Kiri's mana bar

[0/9500]

SFX:Boom Boom

Two magic bullets with numerous shadow black aura shot from Zae's and Kiri's guns. The bullet traversed from all the magic circles increasing intensity as it passed through each magic circle which were about 2 metres apart.

The shot broke into the magic barrier of Nicoer and then straight towards Nicoer's head taking his life.

Nicoer's last thoughts right before he fell down into the ground

"Huff huff huff huff"

"It's over atlast!"

Zae says with a smile

"Lets call this a dra....w."

Zae falls unconscious falling from the tree they were both in

"Za...e"

Kiri's vision also blurred and at the same time along with Zae he falls unconscious aswell.

•The next day•

Zae opens his eyes with a very blurry vision just to see snipe drool all over him chest

"Eeehhhhhh??? Snipe wake up"

Zae quickly throws Kiri back and Kiri's head strikes a tree

"What's the big deal?? aaaahhww my head"

Kiri while rubbing his eyes and his face showing pain

"You drooled all over me!!"

Zae pointing at Kiri and shouting at him with an angry expression.

"Zae, look"

Kiri looks towards the corpse of all the bandits that they had killed yesterday night with a sorrowful expression

"We had to do it, if not us someone would have fallen into their trap"

Zae changes his expression to sorrow aswell

"Forget about this for now, lets go look for Noto he did not come back yesterday"

Kiri proposes with a serious expression

"Yea, lets go look for him, I hope he's alright"

Zae replies to Kiri when suddenly they hear the bushes bristling

"Who's there?"

Kiri demansds with a serious tone

"Guys chill its me"

Noto appears out of nowhere

"Noto!!" "Zan!!"

Both Kiri and Zae shouts with excitement to see their friends alive and well.

When they were suddenly reunited after the battle a sudden notification came
