Creation System: Reborn As A Fantasy Worldsmith

Chapter 163 Surprising Death

?

Syanr had stepped in front of his teammate, with his bamboo shoot in front of him which blocked Nelmis from landing his punch. Nelis retracted his fist, his eyes still covered in a transparent golden light and his fists burning the same color.

"You dare intervene? What is your group's purpose behind what you're doing? Do you think causing mass mayhem will help you in any way?"

He tried to control his anger, gritting his teeth as he spoke. But, to anger him even more, Syanr smirked before retorting, as though he wasn't taking him seriously.

"You don't deserve to know something like that."

He cheekily said as Nelmis clenched his fists once again, this time set on not stopping no matter what came his way.

"You will regret such a foolish decision."

As he said this, his entire body was enveloped in a transparent golden aura.

Seeing this, Lyrian became eager to see the fight come to its climax, but before he could, a random Magma Dweller appeared in front of him to block his view.

Roaring at him, the elephant-model magma beast posed a bit of a threat. Unfortunately, it wasn't something he could just ignore.

"I guess it's time for me to begin fighting as well... as long as that bird keeps eating the mango, we should have enough time to get this job done."

He said, carefully unsheathing his obsidian blade as he pointed it towards the angry elephant model Magma Dweller.

Nelmis, enraged and set on destroying the opponents ahead of him, charged forward with an even stronger resolve than before. Linc instinctively jumped out of the way, and Syanr dashed back a few times to avoid the raging bull-like boy.

While jumping to the side, Linc was suddenly tackled by an actual bull model Magma Dweller -- which threw him across the tower top, far away from the two fighters now left at the scene.

Syanr tsked at this in slight annoyance.

'Damn it... he is the brains of this group, yet he is the most untrustworthy. Whatever, it's not like that matters too much anyway. Even though Nelmis is a faction leader, I can finish him off no problem.'

As he continued to dash backward around the arena, with Nelmis storming towards him, fists ready to unleash a fury of punches, he glanced at Spade for a moment.

Spade, who was busy fighting multiple Magma Dwellers by hand, a bright smile of excitement on his face, didn't seem to pay attention or notice Syanr's peek. Noticing this, Syanr quickly changed his attention back to Nelmis.

"Panda Shoot!"

He suddenly said, as he blew into his bamboo stick, and a small, feathered dart quickly shot out of it. It glowed in a magnificent blue hue, being coated with magic.

The dart was so quick that Nelmis couldn't dodge it, which brought a smile to Syanr's face, however, that smile quickly disappeared as the brute charged right through the dart with his hands in an X position. The dart simply flicked off Nelmis' forearms as though it was a toothpick.

"What the hel--?"

Syanr couldn't even get out his words, as Nelmis had already caught up to him by then. Nearing mere inches from the boy, Nelmis unleashed a devastating punch to Syanr's stomach.

Syanr looked down, his eyes widened in shock.

'Dangerous...'

As Nelmis' fist made contact with his clothing, Syanr pushed the brute's shoulder and propelled himself in the air, causing the force of Nelmis' blow to go into the air, as Syanr swiftly landed behind him.

A blue aura of magic covered his bamboo shoot, as he stabbed it into his opponent's back from point-blank range. Even with the golden aura shield, the bamboo shoot dug into Nelmis' back slightly, as he quickly dashed forward to reduce the real damage of the attack.

He turned around, his face as angry as ever. 

"You're dead!"

He shouted, his body burning up mana as his golden aura became even brighter. He stormed towards Syanr, who found the time to stick his bamboo into the ground.

As he did, it suddenly grew taller in an instant, becoming 6 feet tall. As Nelmis arrived 10 feet away from him, he catapulted himself in the air using the bamboo, finally aiming the shoot towards his opponent on the ground before expanding his chest with air; and then forcing it all out through the shoot.

As he did this, a large dart that almost resembled an atlatl shot out the shoot at incredible speeds, piercing through the air as it spun around, causing an ear-tinging noise to sound -- as though a bullet was whizzing by in the air.

'There's no way he will survive this. I used nearly all of my mana on that dart.'

Syanr thought to himself, as the dart came millimeters away from piercing straight through Nelmis' skull. As anticipation maxed itself out in Syanr's mind, his eyes widening, Nelmis suddenly turned into a blurry mirage of his real self.

Out of nowhere, three more blurry mirages of Nelmis appeared in front of the dart at the same time, before finally, the real Nelmis appeared face-to-face with Syanr in the sky.

This happened in less than a second, as the dart landed in the ground and pierced all the way through. Nelmis' afterimages were due to his incredible speed, and now, he was right in front of Syanr.

Since they were both in the air, dodging would be tricky, if not impossible. Syanr looked around for half a second but finally looked forward as a sun-like fist of golden color beamed straight for his head.

An impending feeling of doom struck him as he held his breath and tilted his head backward -- !!

"You actually lost to him? How disappointing, Syanr."

Spade's voice suddenly sounded from out of nowhere, Syanr quickly opened his eyes and noticed half of Spade's face behind Nelmis' back. He then quickly looked at Nelmis's face -- noticing how the boy's eyes had rolled back into his head,, his limbs having gone limp, and a sharp-looking, bloody hand that was penetrating through his belly.

His lifeless body fell to the floor and thudded onto the black stone ground, as Syanr breathed a sigh of exasperation and relief. Spade also landed back on the ground, where Nelmis was swiftly eliminated.
