3691 Irmatis II

Hun!

The three sensed the four immediately and turned toward them swiftly. It had immediately surprised me, but the realization came the next second.

Those three were acting; they were not enemies, but the allies.

Saying I am surprised would be an understatement. I know acting and could easily tell a fake fight from a real one, but I wasn't able to on this one.

Those three felt like they were fighting truly; the killing intent and the injuries on their bodies were not fake at all.

It made me feel like, the things aren't as simple as they looked.

"So, you all have finally revealed yourselves," said the four-armed woman with the metal skin. "I have to say, your acting is quite good. We aren't able to suspect anything at all," said the young human man with purple hair.

Though he didn't look worried, instead seemed to be looking forward to it.

"You should all surrender; it wouldn't be pretty if you made us fight you," threatened the woman, and the human smiled, while the swirling patterns across his body flared brightly.

"It should be you who should surrender because the little bit of power you have is far from enough to defend against us, much less to make us surrender," said the human, and moved toward the woman.

The other three also moved toward the two Beastmen.

"Don't hold back!" said the woman and her aura flared, making surprise appear on all four of them, turning them cautious as the other two too have released power similar to the woman.

'Things aren't simple,' I thought.

These people are a level above what I usually fight. They are powerful and if their acting was any proof, then skilled.

They had fooled me thoroughly; I was not only able to tell they were acting, but wasn't able to guess their real power. Usually, I do not have any problem doing that, but these people have hidden well.

I wanted to curse myself, but I didn't. Instead, I focused on them more seriously. This time, I cleared my mind of any judgment and decided to trust, only data flashing in front of me.

I also increased the power of stealth; I do not want to get discovered before it is time.

CLANNNG CLANNNG CLANNNNG!

They clashed, creating the powerful shockwaves that vaporized everything around them. I have maintained my distance, but my clones needed to work fast to maintain the stealth, I have.

They are not holding back using most of their power from the beginning.

"As expected. You have come prepared." said the human man after the clash, before attacking again.

The woman is no weakling and responded with the attack, no less powerful than his, with similar finesse.

These two are the most skillful and powerful in their group. I couldn't tell, who would win the battle after the single clash, but I was looking at full concentration and even taking help from my clones.

These people had made me feel threatened, there was no way. I would hold back my abilities against them.

The two groups begin to fight, with each attack going for the kill. Seeing them fighting, my heart started to beat wildly, and I wanted to join the battle.

It took quite an effort to calm that desire.

There is no doubt I will join the battle. I won't let go of the opportunity to fight against the enemies powerful as this one, but it is not a time.

I need to watch and gather more data, before leaping into the battle.

Attack after attack came out, some were mighty enough that they had blanketed the sky. I hope my pearls have been good enough to hide that; I don't want a Sky Sovereign to get attracted here.

A minute passed, and the first injury of the battle appeared. It is on the taller Beastman's shoulder, given to him by a woman with dark blue scales on her body.

The two Beastmen are good, their teamwork is magnificent. It is the reason why, they were able to contend against three enemies, one of whom is slightly more powerful than them.

A few seconds later, another injury appeared, and this time, on a shorter Beastman. It was right on his neck. If he hadn't dodged at the right time, that saber of scaled women would have taken his head right off.

It could still happen, seeing how the three had cornered the two. Even their impeccable teamwork won't be able to save them if those two are stuck in the trap, that three are weaving.

The three cultists may not have a strong teamwork as the pair, but it is still good and with their number advantage and power, they might be able to kill the pair.

Once it happens, even the metal-skin woman, who is fighting equally against the human, will be in trouble.

A few more seconds passed and the Beastmen pair had received a few more injuries, some were quite close to their critical spots.

'It seemed like, is a time for me to act,' I thought and moved. I have waited enough and got the data, I need.

My heart started to beat wildly as I got closer and closer to my target, but I didn't let it guide me. I took the measured steps and stopped when I needed to before moving ahead and finally reached the place.

The place was a hundred meters ahead, but my target appeared close to me, and seeing that, I didn't waste even a moment and leaped at him.

Burst 100%.

They sensed me for a moment, I came out of the stealth and my target stopped midst of the attack and turned toward me, before swinging his spear in my direction.

My eyes turned to the other two and lit up in joy, when I saw the Beastmen pair, stopping the other two.

It is going to make things a lot easier.

Soon, there was only five meters of distance between us, when something surprising happened.

A silvery mist came out and covering the area around us.

The mist isn't thick, but it blocked soul sense and vision, which immediately alarmed the white-horned man, but it is already too late for him.
