Big Novel



Soverick made the next move. He began running around the group and bombarding them with attacks. Fast and thin translucent blades rained down on them from above in every direction. The 5 of them are within the crater so the attacks seem to be coming at them from above and from every direction. 

It is as if a rain of death is falling upon them. But they are not afraid. Another one of them used their divine ability to protect them. Light flashed and a wave of destruction was expelled. No physical or magical attack can harm them when the destructive wave is active. 

This becomes even more so when there are five of them close to each other. The duration and power of the wave of destruction are amplified. The translucent blades become too weak to be a threat to them after weathering the power of their divine ability. They were able to push forward towards him but Soverick kept producing more attacks. 

The second divine ability expanded the crater because of their attempt to get closer to him. He has to run a longer distance around them now but that didn't deter him. He continued to harass them with his attacks.

One of them said to the others. "This is bad. He is boxing us in."

It was then that they realized their problem. Soverick was boxing them in. It looked like they are slowly pushing him back but they are being prevented from doing more. They can do more if they are allowed to spread out between the intervals of using their divine ability unfortunately for them, Soverick is pressuring them with his attacks at every moment. They don't have any moment of reprieve.

They can't rest at all. They either have to defend themselves against him the natural way with their own power or use their divine ability. They can't continue to use their divine ability because it is too energy consuming and it weakens them. With the situation of things, they will run out of power soon and then they will have to face his attacks on their own while also weakened. 

They can also scatter. He can't stop all of them from getting away but getting separated is a bad idea. It will render the advantage of their numbers useless and he will be able to pick them off one by one. Increasing the distance between themselves will increase their range for a while but they won't be able to defend each other from him until they become too separated to amplify each other. 

They can't see him because he is a blur around them but they can near his haunting voice. "Have you realized it now? I told you that I have got you."

They ignored him and made up their minds quickly. They decided to stop using their divine ability for a while despite the fact that they hope he will simulate it as he did with Jarkon. 

It is a good idea. It is common sense to stop using their divine ability right now and prevent Soverick from pushing them to their doom. But no sooner had they stopped that someone was sent flying. You can't expose any weakness to Soverick or you will regret it. That is also common sense.

They stopped using their destructive wave so the translucent blades came through unhindered. They used their weapons and shields to block the attacks. There was the sound of weapons clashing as they defended themselves. His attacks were deceptively strong so they were pushed back as they defended. Each one of them had their issue to deal with so they didn't notice that Soverick had sent a lot more attacks toward one of them. He didn't attack them equally.contemporary romance

Before, he was harassing them, keeping them on their toes by attacking them from every direction. He still did the same now but he swung his blade several more times in a second in the direction of one of them. There was no difference in his speed or the frequency of attacks of the others so they didn't notice that he gave someone special attention until it was too late. 

While the others received 3 attacks and had to do all they could to defend themselves, only for them to be pushed back, one of them had to block 10 attacks alone. She tried to defend herself with her shield but she was quickly overpowered by the strength of the attacks. She lost an arm and part of her legs to the attacks. She was also sent flying out of their squad formation like a rag doll.

Soverick anticipated it. He was waiting for it and he was ready when it happened. He appeared like a phantom behind her back as she was flying out of the crater. She was dazed so she couldn't react when he attacked her. He swung his blade and cut through her body from shoulder to hip. She was wearing armor but it did nothing to protect her from physical contact with his powerful blade. 

The world power-infused blade cut and kept cutting. There was no resistance whatsoever. It came in contact with her shoulder, traveled through her body, and finally exited through her hip. Her mind and body were split apart. She opened her mouth to scream only for her to black out. Her body was ripped apart by the world power that has invaded her existence. She was hurriedly saved by her brand from taking further damage so she disappeared before she exploded into gore.

"Nooooooo!" One of the remaining 4 screamed.

The rest of them had just seen one of them get killed. It made them angry and furious but they can't lose sight of what's important. They have been weakened by the loss so they held back despite the fury within them to rush at Soverick and butcher him. Their self-control threatened to slip when they heard his casual remark.

He said, "One down, four more to go."
