Mr. C waited patiently for a chance for him to attack and when the metal bullets from Astrophos finally pierced through that red lightning which made Alastor lose form, he attacked. With a punch of his own, he hit the man's unprotected stomach and hit again. He released a combination of cross punches that hit directly on his stomach and chest then he gave the man an uppercut that successfully hit his jaw.

Blood came out from Alastor's mouth but this did not faze him. He suddenly released a jab that caught Mr. C off guard as he was hit on the chest that caused him to take a few steps behind and lose his balance.

Alastor spat the blood that was on his mouth before giving the butler another grin, "I did not expect that the butler to be such a good fighter. You surprised me since I have not felt any mana from you, so to be able to withstand my red lightning, you are someone exceptional."

"I do not deserve such praise, as I am still a bit lacking and without Mr. Astrophos that was distracting you then I might not be able to land those punches," Mr. C shook his hands before returning to his fighting stance. His right foot was placed forward, his hips were bent, right hand extended forward with the other hand on his waist. "My arms actually hurt."

Alastor looked at the weird stance which he had not seen before but it was not of importance because he was enjoying his time. "Alright, let's see how long you can defend against me even with a traitor aiding you."

Something red flashed above Mr. C followed by several red lightning that fell from above. Mr. C easily avoided the lightning using some kind of gliding movement that allowed him to swiftly move between the lightning that hit the ground.

Alastor moved behind the butler and sent another wave of red lightning towards him. This one was a direct shot and the lightning even looked like a tiger ready to consume his prey. The moment the lightning was about to hit Mr. C, Astrophos summoned a thick chain below Alastor's feet which he used to pull him down.

The action made Alastor lost his balance thus weakening his red lightning. Mr. C was able to take the attack with less damage and he also used that opportunity to attack. Using the tip of his right hand, Mr. C attacked with a thrusting motion forward that made his hand like a spear with the pure intention of piercing through the enemy.

Alastor saw the attack coming and felt the power coming from it. He knew that if he got hit by that one, he would definitely suffer some internal damage even with the lightning protection around him. The attack was coming fast and in the last moment, he willed his legs to bend down. Mr. C's hand hit through air while Alastor used the force from him bending and propelled himself up thus breaking the chains.

Astrophos was not done yet, sharp metal bullets started to rain down on the Grand Mage once again followed by chains that continued to chase him. Alastor ignored the metal bullets but it became annoying as these things kept on obstructing his vision. The chains were preventing him from getting a good positioning on the ground.

The butler used all of the distraction to his advantage and ran towards Alastor. He gave him a series of punches that went straight to Alastor's body or on the side. His punches also alternated between a closed fist attack to a spear thrust attack with his fingers.

Alastor felt that he was in a disadvantage thus he created a distance between him and Mr. C after that, he dodged all the attacks from Astrophos and when the second round of attack came his way, he let his palms met in front of him to create a red lightning explosion around him.

The lightning reached Mr. C and blew him away. On the other hand, the lightning destroyed all of the metal bullets and chains then made its way towards Astrophos. The man was also pushed back by the lightning that hit him.

"Finally, the both of you became silent," Alastor laughed. He was patting the dust that was on his clothes and frowned at the cuts on it. "You even destroyed my clothes and dared to enjoy me."

Astrophos groaned from where he was because of the attack. He couldn't move his body because the lightning was still coursing inside his body. Mr. C on the other hand was not moving but Alastor knew that the man was still alive, he must have lost his consciousness.

"If I have more time, I would have played with the two of you longer." He had already wasted time and delayed their mission. He needed to take the child and leave.

Alastor disappeared from where he was and directly went inside the inn, breaking the barrier that was placed around it. With his magic sense, he found where the child was. He also felt another person in the room with him, it must have been the shop owner. This time he can't be reckless, if the butler has that kind of ability, then the shop owner was not someone ordinary.

Looks can be really deceiving and his acting was also good which only means that what he showed them during their first meeting was not a fluke. "Bastard," he mumbled to himself. He needed the fastest speed he could have to catch the child thus he covered his entire body with his lightning for protection and additional speed.

He flew across the room and became like a moving mess of colors because of his speed. His target was the room where Cygnus and Ezio were. Alastor locked on the target, he then grabbed the child who was surprised then broke through the room's windows.

His eyes also found Meliore who was trapped by the woman who manages the inn. He did not hesitate to also pull her away and inevitably save her from another explosion then he teleported them to the designated location.

Arean who had been waiting could finally breathe in relief after she saw that they appeared. She started to worry since it was already past the time that they agreed upon but Meliore and Alastor had not yet arrived. Just by looking at them, she already knew what delayed them. It seems that a fight happened.

"Who interfered?" She looked at the two Grand Mages. Meliore was in a worse state while Alastor was in a much better condition but he was strangely quiet. "Are both of you, okay?" she asked again.

"Enough, chatter. Let's just go!" Meliore was in a bad mood and she did not want to be asked. She glared at Arean so the other could only comply. She then looked at Ezio who lost consciousness along the way and shook her head. They were able to fulfill their mission but they also got an enemy for themselves. She just hoped that this won't cause a wave at the capital.
