The tremors in the ground had come at the right time as the soldiers that were running towards Lucius stumbled and fell to the ground. Lucius on the other hand, spread his legs and stabilized himself so as not to fall.

He was not in the middle of moving and thus didn't fall like the others. Plus, he had already expected it to happen and was not caught by surprised. 

"You've done enough, now die!" The voice of Donald could be heard as he appeared from the side.

The tremors were created by his gift, the tremor stomp of course. The soldiers that had fallen on the ground were quickly taken care of by Donald and Lucius, as all they had to do was stab them.

Eight more soldiers died in this way, but the rest managed to recover. 

"Are you okay, Young Lord Asher?" Donald asked with concern as he came to stand behind him.

They stood back to back, keeping an eye on the enemy soldiers.

"I'm fine, I haven't been injured at all." Lucius replied.

"That's good…" Donald said as he took a look around at the dead soldiers.

He had seen how Lucius killed all of them and was both surprised and impressed.

'The training he got from John and me was certainly not something that would allow him to reach this level of skill… he doesn't fight like a novice at all. This is someone who has been in many battles before… but how? Or is it just his innate talent?' Donald was confused.

While Lucius had not been able to replicate all of his skills from his past life due to the lack of a proper body, the basic skills that he could use were already enough to surprise Donald. The enemy soldiers were also not comparable to him either, plus Lucius' speed was slightly better than theirs due to him wearing a lighter armor.

"IT'S THE COUNT!!!" while Lucius and Donald were on the southern side, on the northern side, Gabriel had jumped into the fry.

"AHAHAHA! You all made a huge mistake coming here!" Gabriel said as his sword struck five soldiers in one go.

The moment his sword met the armors of the enemies, it was as if the armor had turned liquid and the sword passed through it. But then inside the armor, the sword cut apart their flesh and bones.

Lucius couldn't help but take a look and saw his current world's father cleaving through soldiers easily. 

"Phase is certainly worth its reputation…" Lucius muttered to himself.

He had yet to use Nexus on it as he had been using up most of his Aether on making Lost these days. He needed to pick the candidates for becoming lost using Nexus and then transforming them with Hell energy.

Lucius couldn't help but wonder just what level would Phase would reach once it was upgraded once again and reached the legendary rank. The enemies that were around Gabriel were terrorized just by the appearance of Gabriel and had lost their battle sense.

They either attacked frantically without proper skill or just focused on running and dodging. After all, blocking Gabriel's attacks was not an option. What use was a shield or armor when the sword could just ignore it.

"EYAAAAH!" A few soldiers started attacking Lucius and Donald in this time and they continued their offense.

As the battle progressed more and more soldiers died. Even with the addition of Lucius, Donald and Gabriel, they were still on the losing side for now. Till now, about two hundred of the enemy soldiers had died, and this was mostly due to the contribution of the three. Only fifty of them were actually killed by the Inanis army.

But this was also due to the fact that they were trapped and restrained in one place. The wind curtain was put up again and the enemy soldiers kept up their barrage of attacks. At this moment, the sound of an explosion was heard.

~BOOM~

"THE CANNON BALLS ARE COMING!" The commander in the middle of the army shouted.

Lucius looked in the direction and spotted the person who had just shot the cannon balls. Earlier he had been unable to clearly spot it since the person who had used it was in the middle of the regiment, but now he knew who it was.

Lucius narrowed his eyes as nexus quickly activated.

Gift Name: Cannon Shot

Description: The user can materialize cannonballs and shoot them out of their hands. The size and power of the cannon balls depends on the amount of Aether used. After each attack, the user needs to cool down his hands or they may get damaged.

Rank: Rare

Type: Emission

Other Owners: Stuart Hancock, Dwain Hancock,… (total owners: 741)

Lucius did not use Nexus fully as he only wanted a certain amount of information right now and did not want to waste more Aether right now either. Thus, he just obtained the basics of it and not how it was evolved. The information about evolving was also the part that took most Aether anyway and thus he could save a lot.

As for the information about the other owners, that was also important for Lucius as he reckoned that there many not just be one person here with that gift. His eyes wandered and he soon spotted another person with the same gift.

"Hmm… Another pair of brothers?" Lucius muttered.

Since nexus could give information about other users without using Aether if he had already gotten the information about the other owners, Lucius merely needed to glance around before the information would pop up automatically.

He then saw how the two brothers brought their hands together in a praying gesture before pulling them apart. Black energy condensed between them before turning into cannon balls and being shot out.

"They are pretty much human siege weapons," Lucius muttered as he blocked another attack.

He had sustained a few injuries during this time, but they weren't really serious.
