Chapter 293 Joining In



Fhin saw the incoming blade and forced his body to dodge. He managed to move to his side and landed on the hero\'s right front. Although he managed to dodge, he still triggered some of the threads and it caused another explosion. Arcaine stepped back only to trigger another round of explosion.

His face distorted in rage because of the annoying threads that were scattered all over the place. He shifted his attention to the mage who was controlling the threads. He looked for her and saw that she was hiding behind the foliage to hide her presence but the hero still found her.

Instead of focusing on Fhin, the hero ran towards the direction of the woman without regard for the explosion that he was triggering because he was focused on getting to her and killing her on the spot. Fhin noticed this so he did not stay on the ground. Since his physique was different from that of a normal person, he easily got up and caught up to the hero.

He bent his feet and stretched it out to kick the man from the side. His target was his chest. Arcaine saw the man\'s movements as he bent down and evaded the kick. Fhin did not stop there though and immediately adjusted his body position so that he could slam his feet down.

Arcaine who was currently crouching down moved his body to the side and rolled away from the attack. The bandit\'s attack caused a crack to appear on the ground. Arcaine narrowed his eyes at the man because now he knew that the man was not someone ordinary.

He stood up and gripped his sword in front of him before he lunged to attack Fhin. Without a weapon, Fhin was at a disadvantage so all he could do was to dodge the attacks that were coming his way. He was waiting for the right time to counter attack.

Arcaine stabbed forward and Fhin jumped back as he put distance between them. The mage tookt this chance and enveloped the hero with her threads that materialized from all of the direction. The bloody color of those threads was ominous and screamed death. With that much thread restraining him, the hero would surely suffer severe injuries.

Before all of the threads could explode, a shadow interfered and pulled the hero away. After the smoke disappeared, Fhin saw that the hero\'s body was not on the ground. He started to look around and saw that the hero was together with three other people.

The man was not looking good because even though he survived, the man still suffered severe burns. A part of his face was still sizzling together with some parts of his arms and upper body. Even his feet were damaged. Fhin grinned when he saw that and he pushed himself up to face the three of them.

He recognized the three of them as he sighed and shook his head. He did not want to fight them but it was a necessary sacrifice. He already died once so dying for the second time wasn\'t a big deal for him. Fhin looked behind him at the woman who had been supporting them ever since they started this play.

Fhin saw the woman nod before he faced the three of them once again. He raised his fists and clenched them as he took an offensive stance. Before any of the two could move, Astrophos was already a few feet in front of Fhin. His right hand was stretched out with a magic circle on his palm that materialized rocks that flew towards the man like bullets.

The bandit leader crossed both of his hands in front of his face to protect it from the zooming rocks towards him. He then heard an explosion so when he put down his hands, all the rock bullets exploded. He used the smoke as cover to stealthily move towards Astrophos who was still looking for him inside the smoke.

He made sure to not make any sound while approaching the man and when he was at a suitable distance, he released a punch. Astrophos felt the shift in the air behind him and when he looked back, he saw a fist coming his way. With no time to dodge, his hands automatically moved up to protect himself from the punch.

The first punch was followed by another then another one until Fhin was giving him consecutive punches, from a jab to a right and left hook and he even attempted to get him through an upper cut but Astrophos managed to evade the deadly blow by leaning his upper body to the back. Astrophos took a step back and when he saw that there was a gap between him and Fhin, he stomped on the ground and summoned earth spikes that forced the bandit to move away.

The mage who had been watching from the side took that opportunity to surround Astrophos with red threads. Astrophos noticed the threads so he immediately surrounded himself with a thick wall of earth before the threads could fully intertwine around him. The explosion happened just as the wall enclosed around him.

He survived and with more power he materialized shards of earth that were sharpened and used them to surround his wall. Astrophos released his magic and those shards flew in all directions which forced the woman to go into defense and protect herself. Fhin also used his speed to dodge the high speed attack.

The wall around Astrophos went down as he immediately flashed in front of the woman. Astrophos punched the woman\'s stomach which effectively rendered her unconscious and he created an earth prison to restrain the woman. Fhin saw what the mage had done and he was impressed that the mage could actually incapacitate his subordinate that easily.

Now that the mage was out of the way, Astrophos started to go all out. Flying rocks and shards did not stop from targeting the Fhin. He was able to manage but with the amount that was flying towards him, he was not sure if he could continue dodging them. While he was still distracted with the attacks, spikes suddenly appeared below him.

If not for his fast reflexes his body would have been full of holes. His body was now filled with large gash that was bleeding whenever he moved. These spikes would appear randomly on the ground which gave him another problem. This was the problem with pure mages because they could easily use magic even if they were faraway.

Compared to the hero who was unconscious, Astrophos was a more tricky and stronger opponent. He gritted his teeth because he could already feel that he was getting tire of all the dodging. He had also used quite a lot of strength to deal with the hero. He chuckled because he knew that he was going to die.

While his mind was wandering, an earth spike appeared behind him and because of how near it was, he did not have the time to dodge. His body was pierced by the spike and the rock bullets and shards hit him hard. He could move and he could already fell that he was about to lose consciousness. The pain in his body started to numb too.

Fhin coughed up blood as he looked at the mage who was staring at him. He did not have any other emotions in his eyes aside from sympathy. He smiled because at least he died by the hand of someone he knew and this was all done for the master. His eyelids slowly drooped until it finally closed.

Astrophos clenched his fists even though his face did not show much reaction after he killed Fhin. He closed his eyes and slightly raised his head. When he opened his eyes, the view of the countless stars in the sky met him. Before he could even mourn, the earth prison he placed the mage in exploded.
