931: Getting Iced

Getting Iced

Having exacted his retribution upon Rolakan, Kahn's thirst for justice was momentarily quenched. 2

Seizing the opportunity, he brazenly snatched the artifact Rolakan had used to summon the legendary barrier, openly displaying his act of theft before the astonished onlookers.

As the barrier dissipated, the remaining six members of the group unleashed their saintly pressure, their murderous aura fixated on Atreus.

A suffocating wave of intimidation cascaded towards him, seeking to overwhelm him with a horrifying and oppressive aura.

BOOM!!

But in a sudden explosion of power, a dark blue aura surged forth, enveloping the area within a five-kilometer radius. The sheer force radiated from Kahn, disrupting and scattering the collective oppressive aura directed at Atreus.

WAR DOMINANCE!

With his unrivaled mastery of War Dominance, Kahn single-handedly thwarted the intense killing intent, overpowering it with his indomitable will.

The combined domain effect, which had previously burdened him with debilitating debuffs, instantly diminished by half in the face of his overwhelming power.

At that moment, the atmosphere shifted. 

The previously confident and menacing six members found themselves facing a force they had not anticipated.

Kahn's display of War Dominance was something they had seen in the Elysium Tribal Tourney and now, not only it halted their aggression but also served as a stark reminder of his prowess to easily overthrow their saint pressures.

Without wasting a single moment, Kahn swiftly directed his attention towards Vikaat, the Tengu halberd warrior adorning golden armor.

Vikaat, a master of long-range attacks as a metal elemental halberd warrior and a True Descendant of the Godbeast Roc, posed a formidable challenge with his skillset.

As Vikaat realized that Atreus had set his sights on him, he summoned hundreds of golden halberds that unleashed devastating laser beams, leaving behind ten-meter-long craters in the ground. The destructive display showcased Vikaat's prowess and the formidable power at his disposal.

Yet, to Vikaat's surprise, Atreus evaded the onslaught of laser beams effortlessly, gracefully moving with a fluidity that resembled dancing. In the blink of an eye, Atreus dodged the destructive attacks, narrowly avoiding their path while maintaining an imaginary partner in his embrace.

"Is he… Dancing?" wondered Vikaat with a gobsmacked countenance.

Vikaat's astonishment was evident, his countenance displaying a mix of disbelief and awe. Observing Atreus maneuver with ease, it became apparent that he was not simply evading the attacks but performing intricate dance-like movements that defied logic.

Unbeknownst to Vikaat, Atreus was indeed dancing, executing the elegant steps in midair.

His precise footwork and nimble agility enabled him to navigate through the onslaught of destructive halberds in a mesmerizing display of skill and grace.

Anyone from Earth witnessing Kahn's astounding feat would have recognized the artful dance.

In mere microseconds, Atreus effortlessly avoided the devastating halberds, which left trails of destruction in their wake, obliterating ancient ruins in a two-kilometer radius.

In the midst of battle… Kahn was doing Tango.

----------------

Vikaat was simply speechless and almost wondered if he was dreaming.

Grab!

But the very next second... Seizing the opportunity, Kahn swiftly seized two of the 10-meter-long golden halberds, their surfaces shimmering with a radiant glow.

With a deft manipulation of his ice element, he infused the halberds with his frigid power, causing them to freeze and become encased in a layer of glistening permafrost.

A whirlwind of motion surrounded Kahn as he spun with calculated precision, channeling his energy into a devastating javelin throw.

The frozen halberds, now transformed into icy projectiles, were propelled forward with remarkable force and accuracy.

With a swift and fluid release, the frozen javelins streaked through the air, leaving behind a trail of icy mist. Their lethal potential and the biting chill of their icy exteriors posed a formidable threat to anyone unfortunate enough to be in their path.

Shoot!

Shoot!

As the confrontation escalated, Atreus swiftly shifted his focus, redirecting his attention from his own attack to a strategic maneuver. With precision and quick thinking, he aimed his own weapons at Vikaat, the Tengu halberd warrior, preparing to unleash a counterstrike.

As Atreus unleashed a barrage of projectiles towards Vikaat, the Tengu warrior reacted swiftly.

Drawing upon his arsenal of halberds, he skillfully manipulated them to form a shield-like barrier, an impromptu defense against Atreus' assault.

Halberds clashed with halberds, creating a cacophony of clashing metal as Atreus' projectiles collided with Vikaat's makeshift shield. The shield held steadfast, warding off the incoming onslaught with a resolute determination.

BOOM!!

CRUMBLE!!

And all the weapons used to create this shield crumbled, destroyed in mere seconds.

As Vikaat witnessed the destruction of his own weapons at the hands of Atreus, disbelief and astonishment washed over him. The realization that his own arsenal had been turned against him, only to crumble and disintegrate, left him shaken to the core.

"Impossible! He used my own weapons against me, and then effortlessly destroyed dozens of them simply by infusing his own world energy. 

What kind of monster is this guy?" he spoke with sheer terror in his eyes and his voice quivering with incredulity.

[To completely rearrange the world energy, change the elemental structure and infuse his own world energy to make the weapon even stronger than the original… And all of that done in a single second…

Even Rolakan and Speki can't do that despite being magician classes themselves.] he thought to himself.

Inwardly, Vikaat grappled with the magnitude of Atreus' power. The sheer mastery displayed in his ability to manipulate world energy to completely rearrange the elemental structure and infuse his own world energy into the weapons was beyond anything Vikaat had witnessed before.

Thoughts raced through Vikaat's mind as he contemplated the implications of Atreus' abilities.

Even among magician classes such as Rolakan and Speki, the feat Atreus had just demonstrated was beyond their capabilities.

To completely alter the world energy and strengthen the weapon, surpassing its original power, all accomplished within a single second—such extraordinary skill defied comprehension.

Vikaat, known for his own prowess as a True Descendant of the Godbeast Roc, felt a shiver run down his spine.

SWOOSH!!

Atreus appeared behind the Vikaat who was taken aback. And the very next moment...

RIP!!

Atreus used his maw to bite and rip apart Vikaat's right wing from its roots on the back and slashed the other one with his left claw.

"ARRGHHH!!" screamed the Tengu but before his terrifying scream reverberated in the surround.

Atreus, seizing the opportunity, firmly grasped Vikaat's arms, allowing the permafrost to rapidly spread across the Tengu warrior's body. The icy tendrils snaked their way across Vikaat's form, encasing him in a frozen prison.

As the permafrost enveloped Vikaat, his once formidable movements came to an abrupt halt. He stood frozen, as if transformed into a statue carved from ice, his body locked in a state of immobility.

And now Vikaat had become…

A Frozen Princess.
