Chapter 291 291 Stay Back!

"Nora, be careful!" Nexus charged in.

In a protective stance, Nexus swiftly positioned himself between Nora and the closest enemy like an unshakable wall, drawing his sword in a fluid motion, he blocked the incoming attacks and aimed to shield her from harm, he attacked one of the assailants decisively while defending the others attack.

His decisive strike caught his target off-guard, the blade penetrating with precision, and he was able to eliminate him on the spot. "Nexus, Thank God you are here" Nora was happy.

However, there was no time to celebrate, the other assailants unsheathed their blades, drawing their own weapons to confront Nexus, and attacked him in melee combat, the clashing of steel and the resounding clash of blades filled the air, the two assailants swiftly reacting with multiple coordinated attacks.

They both slashed at Nexus at the same time, one attack came from up while the other slashed from the middle, Nexus backflip dodging both attacks while attacking in mid-air, he threw fireball at them and one of the two blocked with earth element while the other attacked with water element, he tried to entangled Nexus leg and dragged him down, but covered the sword in his hand by fire and cut of the water tentacles.

When he landed he was welcomed by earth spike which he dodged to the right by a slight margin, he sensed another attack coming his way and rolled on the ground to dodge it.

The assailants attacked at the same time, displaying a unified front, attacking Nexus simultaneously, their swift and coordinated movements aiming to overwhelm him. Nexus, with his combat prowess and quick reflexes at the forefront, was able to dodge all the attacks.

"Stay back and be careful" he said to Nora, he prepared to engage the two assailants head-on, focusing on defending Nora while strategizing his counterattack against the assailants' synchronized assault.

"He's good, too good. His movements are almost inhuman, like he's predicting our every attack." The earth mage said warily

"Don't falter! We must press on. He's just one man; we can overwhelm him if we synchronize our elements!" replied the water mage with determination written all on his face

"But look at the precision! He parries as if he's reading our minds. We have to finish this quickly before he gains the upper hand." The earth mage continued

"Enough! Our retreat ends in our failure. We have to give it everything. Prepare for a coordinated strike, and then we flee. He can't predict all our moves." The water mage said abruptly, and he stared at Nexus waiting for their next tackle. 

Nexus latched out at the assailants and close in on them, he is too fast for them to dodged and they had to engage in close combat with him. In the midst of the intense battle, Nexus was wielding an ordinary sword, yet he was effectively drawing on the combat techniques ingrained within him by the system. Channeling the qi within his body into the sword, he found an opening and skillfully executed precise strikes, swiftly incapacitating one assailant and expertly parrying the last enemy's blade.

As the earth mage enemy realized the loss of his weapon, he unleashed a last-ditch attack an earth wall with spikes simultaneously then followed by a hasty retreat. Nexus, however, opted against pursuit, prioritizing a more critical concern. He swiftly took charge, ushering Nora toward Monica's room with a sense of urgency, mindful of the specific targets Fitch might prioritize.

"Let's go, Nora," Nexus directed, his voice calm yet tinged with urgency. "We need to ensure Monica's safety."

As they hurried to Monica's room, Nexus's mind raced, his thoughts focused on the safety of those Fitch despised the most. His conviction was clear: Madeline possessed the skills to defend herself, but Monica, on the other hand, needed his protection in this dire moment.

He moved as fast as possible aiming to reach Monica's quarters on time, Nexus's urgent footsteps echoed through the corridor. "Nora, we need to hurry" he called out, his voice filled with a sense of urgency.

They could hear sound of battle everywhere and saw some Rusell family guards been slaughtered but they both had to focus on getting to Monica on time.

Nora, her breaths still quick from the recent conflict, glanced at Nexus, her concern evident. "Do you think she's okay?"

Nexus's gaze remained fixed on the road ahead, his thoughts solely on Monica's safety. "Fitch's main targets are Monica and Madeline. We have to ensure she's safe."

After a tense moment, they both got close to Monica's quarters door, revealing a flustered expression when they saw the door fully closed. "Nexus, what's happening?" Nora inquired, her eyes reflecting a mix of worry and confusion. Monica was supposed to had known that they are under attack and according to plan they are supposed to leave their quarters door wide open.

The group, rushing towards Monica's room, found themselves only moments away when an explosion reverberated, shattering the door to Monica's quarters. The force of the blast sent Monica hurtling backward, blood gushing from her wounds, painting a grim scene that prompted a horrified gasp from Nora.

"Monica!" Nora's cry was filled with shock and desperation as she sprinted to her injured cousin's side, determination etched in her features, her magic already beginning to weave towards healing, she unleashed the healing property of her water element to the full potential.

A black shadow flew out of the chamber towards where Monica clashed, Nexus, his senses on high alert, reacted swiftly, his sword poised to ward off the black-clad assailant attempting to continue the assault on Monica. With a swift and practiced swing, Nexus intercepted the assailant's advance, engaging in a ferocious exchange. The assailant, wielding fire as his element, parried Nexus's strikes, defending himself as he attempted to gain distance from Monica.

lightsnοvεl Nexus and the man in black locked gazes, a tense silence punctuating the chaos. Nexus, his expression hardened with determination, faced off against the assailant, his mind calculating the next move.

"What do you want?" Nexus's voice resonated with controlled urgency, his eyes fixed on the assailant. "You've already done enough harm."

The assailant, his face obscured by the mask, offered no response, his intent concealed behind a steely resolve as he maintained a cautious distance, sizing up Nexus with a calculated glare, ready for the next round of engagement.

In the tense standoff between Nexus and the assailant, Nexus expected the man to respond but he remained silent, "He is not a regular mage" Nexus thought.

"I don't need you to respond, I will make sure to beat the hell out of you and beat the question out of you," the assailant snuff and took to position ready to respond to Nexus with his fist, when Nexus saw that his provocation does not work he took his stance too and dashed out.

The air crackled with collision between charged mana and Qi as they faced off in an intended battle. Nexus, determined to protect Monica and Nora, launched his swift counterattack unleasing multiple techniques, with his sword blazed with fire wielding a defensive force against the fire-wielding enemy.

As the clash intensified, Nexus observed the proficiency of the assailant in controlling fire magic.
