"…" Yuba fell silent and decided to come over to help him because Kai would be too dangerous to be left alone. "I have told you that I should be the one fighting him. And now you've ruined my excitement from fighting these two girls."

Despite his complaints, he still arrived in front of Kai while pointing his blade at him. "I have made you wait."

Kai didn't waste his time with this guy and attacked him.

"Tch." Yuba clicked his tongue and struck his blade. Kai tried to slash him with his swords, but Yuba skillfully blocked all of them. "It's not going to work anymore. The first one worked because you surprised me."

Kai maintained his poker face and realized these guys were indeed stronger than the ones he had met. He took a deep breath and turned serious.

"Something is weird…" Yuba muttered before he instinctively raised his sword, finding Kai disappeared. He followed Kai's movement and struck him, who happened to attack him from the left.

Blood dripped from his hand and entered the blade before a huge shock wave shook them.

"Huh." Yuba drew a gasp as he realized Kai's strength just increased. He used his own blood to reinforce the blade and somehow neutralized Kai's power. "This…"

Kai understood that Yuba seemed to be stronger than the clam and leaped backward to gain a bit of distance. He thought, 'I used my Sonokinetic Blade earlier, but why didn't it go?'

At the same time, Yuba also narrowed his eyes and thought, 'I'm among the top ten in the power ranking, yet, this guy can neutralize my attack? I've used my blood instinctively to increase my blade power, but this guy's attack is that powerful?'

Unlike the clam, whose magic was able to turn himself into a pearl, the anglerfish had an extraordinary ability called Blood Magic. This magic allowed him to use his own blood to reinforce everything, but the more he used it, the weaker he became due to the blood loss.

Even so, it should give him a ridiculous amount of power.

Not daring to claim that Kai's attack was stronger, he charged forward and infused a bit of his blood again, hitting Kai from above.

Kai narrowed his eyes and deflected the blade with both swords to the side as the blood flew out of the sword, slicing all the trees and monsters in a fan-shaped area. The range reached at least fifty meters, making it look extremely powerful.

"Huh?" Yuba widened his eyes, wondering why his blood magic didn't work against him.

Little did he know, Kai used his Super Sonic Sword to keep vibrating that the energy on his sword became unstable. He could only use it right now due to the ability to direct his Sound Wave and Vibration. There were many concepts that interested him too, but he could only walk one step at a time.

The two continued to clash as Kai kept deflecting his sword, letting him waste his blood.

Even Kai could hear the gradual decrease of friction inside his body. His face became pale and his heart seemed to get weaker the more he used this attack.

Knowing that it would be bad to fight Kai in this situation, he decided to use his trump card.

He slammed his sword against him with all his strength to lock him in that position.

"Light!" The light bulb on his head shone brightly, blinding Kai. Yuba struck him, but Kai Super Sonic Sword hit his hand and antenna instead.

"What?!" Yuba widened his eyes and saw Kai move with his eyes closed.

Kai smiled and used his Sonokinetic Blade to cut his hand and antenna while saying, "Even if I'm blind, I won't have any problem moving around."

"…" Yuba clenched his teeth, wondering how far Kai understood his ears. Little did he know, when Kai practiced with Arba, the latter always asked him to wear a blindfold to increase the sharpness of his ears, allowing him to operate even without eyes.

Even though Kai could do it, his level was only at the basic movements, not a real fight like this.

And that created a chance for Kai to exploit as he finally cut Yuba's hand.

Yuba grabbed the flying sword and struck Kai with all his might, pushing him several meters back. "Don't think I'm done here."

Kai smiled and said, "No one said that."

The two continued their clash.

Just like Kai versus Yuba, the two girls also struggled to fight against Hatker.

It was a new opponent, so they needed to adapt fast.

Roselyn charged forward and struck the shield as hard as possible, but Hatker didn't even flinch, let alone get pushed back.

Hatker smiled because these two girls seemed to be easier than Kai Carter. As he said earlier, Kai's power seemed far more effective against him than these two girls.

Sofia went around him with a magic circle rotating in his hand.

"Circulation Ice Magic, Drill."

The same ice drill emerged from the magic circle and hit Hatker's shield, but the latter simply made his shield face upward. With that hardness of his shield, the drill had no other way than going up before snapping.

"This is starting to get annoying." Sofia furrowed her eyebrows, wondering what she could do in this situation. Roselyn also started thinking about it, but no one had an idea.

However, Sofia came to a realization after she hit the shield with her hand. She almost forgot why she didn't dare to fight the enemy with her hands due to the sharp sword.

Fortunately for her, the enemy only had shields. He needed to crush her or slam her to death or else he wouldn't be able to kill her.

She gently tapped the shield and summoned a magic circle. "Circulation Ice Magic, Splash."

The Ice Magic bypassed the shield as ice crystals appeared behind the shield and froze his hand.

"Ah!" Hatker widened his eyes as his hand felt numb. He could still use them, but the power would get weaker.

Sofia smirked and shouted, "Roselyn. Stop this guy for me, I will be able to weaken him. After that, we will kill this guy."

Roselyn nodded and used all her six legs to grab the top of the shield before launching herself into the air.

"Authority Blade."

Hatker clenched his teeth and forcefully raised his shield to block her, but the wind that appeared and covered her blade burst, pushing him to the ground until it cracked and buried his foot.

Sofia took advantage of this chance and went around Hatker, specifically to behind him.

"Circulation Ice Magic, Splash."

Hatker managed to react by spinning his shield to stop her attack, but the ice crystals that appeared behind his shield inflicted another damage on his hand again before he suddenly dropped to the ground and spat a mouthful of blood.

"Wha—" Hatker widened his eyes because he realized Sofia's real aim. "You… My back!"

Sofia smirked and said, "That's right. My aims are your hand and the crack on your back."

Using those ice crystals, she let her ice magic hit the crack on the back and inflicted more damage to his internal body.

"Try this then." Sofia didn't want him to recover, so she went around him and came to his front with a magic circle in her hand. "Circulation Ice Magic, Drill."
