8 Chapter 7: What?

The seemingly arrogant Leader of the thieves walked in front of the group, blocking them if they ever wanted to go forward. None the less even if they go back the glare he got is saying he will kill them whatever the situation they are in.

"Come all of you.... If I don't bring your heads I'll be im big trouble." He stated as he pointed the very tip of his long spear thar was decorated with these carvings of dragons.

"What shall we do?" Emin whispered to Komin.

"Fight him ofcourse! We can't run away..." he replied.

"Tsk! Not gonna come? Then... I shall come to you..."

The Thief charge at them even cracking the land where he stood because of the sheer preasure of his sudden velocity.

"Tsk Buff me Up Mercy!!!" Komi said.

A purple aura surronded Komin as the Thief Trowed his sword into the ground and created a minishock wave throwing the group and ultimetely seperating them.

The place where the Thief struck his spear on the groud indeed created a explosive attack that it created a dust cloud. As the cloud faded away you'll see the man standing in the middle of his attack but he stayed there and look at his enemies who are planning on how to attack him. The situation became neutral as the Thief just pointed his spear to them..

"I'll give you props to that miss... if you haven't did tht your a dead Girl.." He simply stated. He never did expect to miss his attacks but seemingly the group is more powerful than the regular travelers in the site.

"We need to attack him simontanesly! Come let's do our powerful moves and let's attack him all at once.." Emin Stated as she powered up. The whole group agreed also, as if they have a choice anyway.

"Oh?" The Thief became intrigued on their plans on attacking him.

*Soul Power!*Emin said

*Heavenly Sword Demon!* Komin said

*Energy Buff!* Mercy said

*Star Magic!* Moritoko said

*Absolute Hit!* Edwin

As all of them powered up! Komin Sword became red, Edwin's eyes glowed Yellow all of them has a green aura surrounding them because of Mercy's Buff..

"Ahahaha Let's see if whose more powerful now" The thief said

The Thief emited this Red like aura as his bloodturst could be also felt. The amount of preasure he is emiting send goosebumps on the skin of most of the party members. They did really have a choice it's neither they die surrendering or die as a fighter. The thief's spear glowed yellow on it's very tip. He gripped the spear very tightly as he hold's it with both of his hands and spun it very quickly spinning it to the top, back and sideways. He have been using Chi aura with advance spear techniques.

Kerl backed off and said "Hit him with the best you got! He's probably in second layer of Chi Aura and has Spear Techniques!" As he said this he saw Paul sitting near a tree.

"Tsk...."

"You! What are you doing?! Ain't you a B rank?! Can you help them atleast?!" Kerl screamed

As Kerl said to Paul it was already to late the battle already started as all of them charged at the Thief, the Thief used his shockwave again but it didn't work, now the real fight is going to happen.

His spear Parried with the sword of Komin and he pushed it upward trowing Komin with it to, many Arrows rained upon him the intense reload speed of Edwin is rather fast. But even though his reload speed as doubled it's speed none of his arrows barely even make a scratcg on the shoulders or any part of the body of the Thief.

"Alright let's be more serious here!" He screamed as he now grew more and more serious as time's progress. He doesn't want to lose on a battke against this as all.

A star which is colored yellow shot at him but he dodged it by moving his shoulder. Emin tried to Punch him instead He blocked her punch with the spear's handle bars, once she fot stopped mid air the Thied kicked her Stomach as she was thrown far and stumbled hard on the ground.

Emin grunted in pain as she continued to stumble around into the bushes as momentum stopped he tried ti stand up again but this time she felt an this pain on her mid section.

All of them attacked as one but in the end, the Thief is no match for them they were either getting blocked by him and getting countered by him also.

"I'll Shoot him again! So please hit him what.." Edwin stopped as his eyes widened to see the thief appeared in front of him while reloading his Bow "I don't think so!" He headbutted Edwin and sent him flying through the pathway eventually hit the ground hard his head was bleeding and eventuall he got knocked out.

"Edwin!!" Emin Screamed

"Aghhh!! Eat this!" She Jumped and Inleashed all of her Soul power Skill

King Cobra!

A snake spirit appeard and is coming to the Thief's head.

"Not bad But I'll destroy it..." The thief said and croughed and also jumped

Emin is suprised because of this she isin't expecting him to challenge her mid air.

"Demon Spin!" He chanted as his speared spum extreamly fast that a perfect circle could be seen. The strong punch Emin was about to throw didn't work as she was then sliced by the spinning tip of his Spear.

She was sliced on her body penetrating the leather armor and also the protection Mercy casted upon he blood burst into her skin and falls into the ground hard.

"Tsk this might be the End of us" Komin said into himself.

"Is that all you got?!" He then stucked his speared into the floor and pulled out a cigar and suddenly a small fire lit the tip of his index finger and he was able to light his cigarrette.

" I aint wasting time on this might as well knock you all out..." He simply stated as he struck his spear on the ground and leaned on to the spear and rested shile puffinf smoke in his lips.

*what will he do?* Kerl said as he waited for a brief second awaiting the next move of the thief.

"If you don't know Chi I'll give you an advice without no Knowledge of Chi you can be killed in the snap of my fingers..." He then lifted his left hands and...

*He's trying to knock us out because one power of Chi is...*

*Snap

"AHAHAHAHA" He simply Laughed.

*in...timi..d.ation...*

All of the remaing party lost their consinounes and collapsed through the ground.

"Alright seems this is.... huh" Talked to himself then ever so suddenly while looking the peaceful tree who is the only witness of the brutal fight He saw one more remaining in the back besides Kerl's body...

"You!... How are you even still up?" While exhaling some smokes.

"Hmm.. cool Abilities! I must say for a Extraordinary Layer Unknow you not that bad"

"Hmm?"

*This guy know's chi huh* He said into his mind "So you know about Chi" He asked the unknown boy who is sitting in a three

"I just don't, know them..." Paul stood up as he stretched his legs and also hands.

"I am Chi..." He simply stated

"What?"

Suddenly Paul was in front Of The Thief! The Thief eyes widened and he immediently jump back off even his ciggeret has fallen from his mouth, on sheer alertness he got he revealed his face. Whilw he dodge it and manage to gripped his spear to his face were revealed.

It revealed a middle aged man with a scar close his his eye Black hair and it seems he's been countless of fights in his life time.

*What was that?! I didn't saw him ran to me! No, no his speed his so fast My... eyes didn't see it...*

He grew now rather nervous now he see's a man dressed in normal looking Leather coats in his front view just staring at him..

"You seemed to be strong warrior..." he said

"Well, not really I'm just a Human at probably layer 7 who knows I don't really care on statistics. I just want to be strong that's it" He said as the thief backed off to create some space while Paul never did express the emotion of arrogance or fear he simply looked at the man who he is facing straightly and with confidence.

"What?! Impossible! How can you use a skill thay fast if you're just in Realm one! It's impossible! There should be trickery here!!" He pointed his spear into him.

"Well if your smart enough you could skip things..." He started to scratch his head and his right hand is in his back

" Zien..." The Thief said his name. He knows his enemy is worthy enough to know his name.

Paul smilled "It's pleasure to know your name. People call me Ram." Paul respected that Zien introduced himself to him. This symbolize that the enemy is very strong and will be remembered by the man who defeated him or her.

"I'm sorry Ram but my master is much more stronger than me or even you and if I don't take your friends here I'm just dead meat..."

"I understand Mr. Zien but you are the one sill be defeated..."

Zien became more nervous about this he started to release his besr defensive techniques and also spear techniques, thus making his spear Glow Orange.

Paul drew his Stick and pointed it into him.

*might as well use it noe since I cultivated minimum level to use a small amount of it in the carriage a while ago..*

"A s-stick..Mr. Ram?" He questioned

"Let this ignore you by the fact many underestimate the power of this stick but if you grew much more knowledge of Chi, A stick can be much more stronger than a Sword..."

Zien eyes widded as a large black line emmerged from the tiny tip of the stuck. Zien noticed this powerful move so he used every thing in his abilities to try to block it.

But...

Harsh Bubonic Line...

A masive shockwave able to even alter the straightness of the tress on the side and bushes has been made tons of dust appeared as the black line faded away Kiel was there standing... with torn pieces of his clothing and his spear was broken...

"What kind of Pow..." Zien puked blood as his body exploded with scratched his skins moutj and nose started bleeding..

He shorty collapsed into the ground lifeless.

He seemed to be killed...

"Hmm it is as weak as I thought so.. Mr. Zien you got good techniques your only one flaw is that you lack real techniques.. yes the techniques they have thought and the procedures to echance your techniques can only show 25% of it's original Power, which I know because Niko is the only one to made 60% of Spesr techniques here in this world.." Paul respect his opponets so the fallen spear of Zien he picked it up and placed it near the body of Zien.

As the scenery became now neutral and silent Paul now started thinking on hoe treating the wounds of the injured Party members..

Until an old Man short as forteen year old kid, And has this bald spot on his head. He has a stick to support his body and he just appeared out of nowhere to the bushes.

This Starled Paul and he immediately looked to where the Old man is.

*who is this I didn't sense any life force from him, he has hid it? But only a master of Chi Realm 4 can do that...*

"Greetings..."

"My king..."

*What?!*

End.
