1464 Chapter 1311: The Bet

A/N: Check out my new novel: Players Era: The System!

°°°

The collision between the sword and the club that was incorporating the mutated Ice Troll Warrior's energy created a shockwave, sweeping away all the snow and ice in the surrounding area.

"Kieee!"

The ice troll warrior's body was sturdier than he thought. It withstood the tremendous shockwave with its body and pummeled its club.

'His regenerative ability is certainly insane.' Alex remarked.

Its body was ripped apart by the shockwave, yet it had already started regenerating. It wasn't just the strength and the agility, but it also had an incomparable regeneration compared to the normal ice trolls.

'Well, compared to my regenerative ability it's nothing to boast about.' Alex smirked.

He then bent his knees. He swung up with his sword, aiming at the ice troll warrior's energy that was falling like a waterfall.

The ice troll warrior's combative energy was powerful, but Wrath's Flames had

enough power to melt it down.

Wham!

 

The crimson flame, fierce enough to melt steel, slashed through the ice troll warrior's energy and crashed like a tidal wave. It looked like a salmon going up a valley.

"Krr!"

The ice troll warrior groaned upon seeing its combative energy being split apart. Its yellow eyes, which used to look down on him, were filled with panic.

'I'll end you right away.'

There was no point in wasting time. It was as if he was about to slice its neck, after cutting through the ice troll warrior's energy—

Wham!

 

The lump of ice thrown from the right deflected the sword's trajectory.

 

Pssh!

 

Instead of the troll warrior's neck, the sword cut through its chest. Despite receiving a huge injury, displaying his ribs to the outside, he still managed to jump back to gain distance.

Alex narrowed his eyes and raised his head. The ice troll shaman was shaking its staff on the hill. What deflected his sword earlier was the Ice Shard fired by the troll shaman, the second strongest monster apart from the ice troll warrior.

"I'll take care of the shaman!" Ego who had just finished a normal ice troll proposed to help and Alex immediately got an idea, a bet to be precise. He quickly shared his thoughts with his Clone.

The bet is simple if Alex were to finish his mutated Ice troll before Ego could take down the Ice Shaman guiding the others he would kill the latter and win.

The loser has to listen to everything the winner says, it was too enticing for Ego to refuse.

It was one of the methods Alex thought to curb Ego's wild thoughts.

"If you don't manage to kill it by the time I finish the troll warrior, I'll get the shaman myself and it will be my win."

"That won't happen!"

Ego frowned and climbed up the hill.

"Krr!"

Alex looked ahead, hearing the growl of a wounded beast. The ice troll warrior, who had already recovered, was raising its club.

"I'm sorry, but the fight is over."

Alex lowered his sword and smiled coldly. He'd finished analyzing the ice troll warrior's movements. The only thing left was to take its life with a single strike.

"Kara!"

The ice troll warrior shattered the ground and rushed at him. With his sight filled with the monster, Alex brandished his sword. Instead of stepping back, he ran ahead.

Alex Sword Art: Special Form: Ten Flames.

Thawing Flame.

A crimson flame blossomed on the red blade, as if a meteor had arrived. The flower blossom looked like the sun as it spread out in four directions, announcing the end of the cold winter.

 

Creak!

 

The dancing crimson flame subsided, and the frozen ground melted. The ice troll warrior's head and club fell above it.

"Haaa…"

Alex lowered his sword and exhaled an exhausted breath. The Alex Sword Art was powerful and flashy, but it consumed too much mana and spiritual force (SE). He felt like his mind was going numb.

However, the power and sharpness that cut the ice troll warrior apart in a single slash was satisfying.

Alex caught his breath and looked up the hill. The troll shaman was spreading its magic and leading the remaining trolls to fight against the Ego.

°°°

Ego pierced into the center and swung his sword at the shaman, worthy to be Alex's clone, despite not having his full strength Ego was powerful.

Clang!

 

Even though his sword was targeting the shaman, it was blocked mid-way, as if there was an invisible wall. It was the defensive magic cast by the shaman.

"Haaa!"

He kept restlessly swinging his blade, which was surrounded by a powerful aura, yet the magic barrier didn't shatter easily.

"Kikrrkarti!"

The troll shaman chanted a strange spell and the snow streams fluttering in the air became even more intense, to the point where he couldn't even see right in front of him anymore.

"This isn't enough to stop me!"

Ego grits his teeth and swings his sword. The white storm was split apart, and the shaman's body came into his sight.

'I-I have to kill it at all costs!"

''Ee-yah!"

He kicked the ground and spread his sword became sharp, so sharp that it looked like the magic wall was about to be broken since it was trembling violently.

'I'm almost there!'

Just as Ego was about to deliver the finishing blow, by gathering more mana—

 

Slam!

 

Shaman's body faltered significantly, and a red stream appeared from the left side of its chest, where its heart was located.

"Wh-What is this…?"

While Ego was standing still, unable to understand the situation, the troll shaman's body was shattered into pieces along with an explosive sound.

 

Whoosh!

 

Behind the fluttering crimson smoke, the silver handsome young man that Ego hated the most was standing there, holding a dagger emanating flame.

"Y-you bastard!"

Ego pointed his finger while trembling his chin.

"Why are you here?"

"I told you I'd kill it myself if you didn't manage to finish it before I killed the troll warrior."

"Shut up! It was just a surprise attack from the back! I could've finished it on my own even if you weren't here!"

"Just a surprise attack or whatever, I have won the bet, it is your fault for being dumb thinking I'd play fair.''

Alex sneered and said as a matter of fact. His face was so hateful that Ego wanted to insult him but in the end, he managed to restrain himself. 

'Good, I'll remember this and pay you back later.' 

''Tch! I understood it was my loss. What is your order?" Ego asked while glaring at Alex, the latter shrugged his shoulders before announcing. 

''Go back I will tell you later.'' 

Ego almost exploded with rage as he felt like he was getting played like a fool by Alex. He could only swallow his rage and bid his time, he couldn't ask recklessly. 

With a puff, he disappeared leaving Alex to click his tongue in annoyance.

''Tch! Pretty enduring aren't we? Let's see how much you can endure before imploding, showing your true colors and I shall get rid of you.'' 

Alex was not afraid of Ego imploding but he was more scared of him enduring, not falling for his tricks, someone like that would be difficult to deal with. Well, he had a lot of plans to make him show his true colors but not now he must stop his training and continue onward, he must close the Infinity Maze's chapter to go see his loved ones which he missed dearly. 

''Let's go!"
