They heard the declaration of war loud and clear. This was the first time they found a human to have the nerve like this guy.
The Saint they fought in the past might be strong, but he was constantly running away from three World Class Monsters, unlike Theo who had the confidence to challenge them head-on.
It was remarkable and foolish at the same time. But Theo seemed to have the ability to do so.
If they kept fighting like this, they might be able to kill Theo, but they would be heavily injured as well. At that point, there was no telling whether they would die from injuries or not.
That was why they felt shivers down their spines, thinking Theo was planning to drag them with him.
But Theo surpassed their imagination again by turning around. They thought Theo was planning another attack, but they were wrong. They shouldn't have put so much respect for Theo because he was also a human.
And facing two World Class Monsters, he also ran away.
Yes, Theo actually ran away after that declaration of war.
"What?!" The two World Class Monsters were astounded, not understanding how Theo's logic worked anymore. How could one kill them if he actually ran away?
They exchanged looks and realized it was just a bluff to stall them. They shouldn't have expected anything from a human.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAnger and disappointment started to fill their hearts as the dog and the chimera chased after him.
"You are only a coward. Where is that big mouth of yours?" The dog barked, frustrated. He kept insulting Theo about the challenge and his current actions that were completely the opposite.
The chimera seemed to be doing the same while trying to catch Theo with his fishing rod.
They didn't realize that Theo actually feared the third World Class Monster that attacked the Saint from India. He still had some chances to win against these two monsters, but none if the third World Class Monster joined the fight. Though, it was true if he didn't resummon his clone since the latter tried to give a warning to the people in the US Base for the incoming attacks.
Running away like this was simply a way to avoid the third World Class Monster.
Theo kept running for twenty minutes while avoiding all the attacks from the two monsters. He had to expend more Magic Power than he originally expected since they were angry and threw a few reckless attacks, which ended up being too big for him to avoid.
That was why it wasn't that easy for Theo to run away from them, especially since his condition kept getting worse due to the wounds.
The monsters also didn't have a good time either. Their speeds had been decreasing continuously. But the only reason why they kept chasing Theo was due to the amount of Order and Authority Theo was using.
Theo's Magic Power might be a lot, but his Order and Authority were a different case.
He had used a vast amount of energy ever since he fought the dog, so it was clear that Theo was weakened more than them.
Theo gritted his teeth while glancing back and forth, trying to avoid all these attacks.
Unfortunately, he was caught by the fishing hook.
"!!!" Theo knew it wouldn't be good to be caught like this, but he couldn't do anything as the chimera pulled the fishing rod to stop him.
Theo's momentum disappeared almost completely, but he was also putting up some fight as the chimera ended up getting thrown forward due to that momentum.
Theo instantly turned around and swung his blade while the chimera did the same and struck his sword with the fishing rod.
The Magic Power covering their weapons collided, causing a huge shock wave that alarmed all the monsters nearby.
Still, this was the place Theo had to cross to reach these two monsters. He had prepared enough as he annihilated all the monsters in this place.
No matter how hard the two World Class Monsters asked for help, there would be no more monsters that could help them.
This was a perfect battlefield to end everything.
With that in mind, Theo formulated two abilities in his mind and tried to combine them.
Seeing the dog and the chimera's abilities, there were not many abilities that could be used against both of them simultaneously. So, he changed his focus to the dog first since his condition was the worst after receiving the biggest injury and flying all the way here with the chimera on his back.
Theo chose his grandfather, Leonardo, and his uncle, Marzio.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTheo raised his hand and commanded, "Heed my call."
Sixteen golden circles appeared in the air as each of them summoned a chess piece. After that, Theo waved his left hand, releasing sixteen golden threads to attach to these pieces.
"Forward!" Theo commanded.
This ability took Theo's Death Avatar as inspiration. After that, he cloned them with his ability and only one of them, the king, was the real Death Avatar.
And Marzio's ability was simply the chains to pour Magic Power to them since it was hard to maintain all sixteen of them at the same time.
They were surprised that there were sixteen warriors that had surrounded them.
The bishops were the first ones to make their moves. The first bishop formed a fireball, while the other one created a tornado.
They released them straight at the two World Class Monsters, where the two elements combined and created a fire tornado.
The dog released his roads to stop this fire tornado while the chimera jumped to the side, blocking the knights' swords.
They were trying to find a way to escape, but they didn't realize that the chess pieces arrangement made trigrams.
This was the time for him to use the Heavenly Sovereign's ability while the World Class Monsters were busy with the illusion warriors.
Theo couldn't help but smile as he clapped his hands, pouring the energy into the trigrams to manifest them.
'This will be your burial ground,' thought Theo.
