BATTLE FORMATION II

"Looks like am next" Hutton calmly said as he stepped forward slowly.

'i think he is the one that previously said he was a born archer' Pearce thought with an expectant expression on his face.

Immediately after, Hutton brought out a bow and a single arrow from his storage pouch as he kept the former at his left hand and the later at his right.

As soon as he set the arrow on the green colored bow, a his gold qi suddenly erupted as it surrounded both his and the bow and arrow. Just at everyone is expecting him to attack, he finally released the arrow.

Whoosh!!

Erupting Bullseye!!

As soon as the arrow landed on the dummy in front of Hutton, it surprisenly didn't make the later to explode. Instead, it neatly and swiftly went through the dummy as a hole that emerged from both sides of the dummy appeared on its forehead.

'So precise!' Pearce thought as his eyes narrowed in shock.

"Just looking at how that arrow attack is makes me to believe that spell Hutton used wasn't a simple one" Robert said as he also narrowed his eyes in shock.

"It's a grade 1 spell" Hutton casually said as he put his bow back into his storage pouch.

"What!?" Robert exclaimed with a shocked expression on his face. Not only him, But even others have the same expression on their faces.

'As expected. And it looks like he has practiced that spell to the excellent phase' Pearce thought as he slightly gave himself a nod.

"Am next!" Daniella suddenly spoke as she stepped forward while Hutton went to stand beside Pearce.

Immediately after she stepped forward, two blue colored pistols suddenly appeared on her hands. Not only that, but her qi suddenly erupted as both her body and the two pistols were completely shrouded with a yellow colored aura.

Just has everyone has expected, Daniella began to fire..

Bang!! Bang!! Bang!! Bang!!

Bullet Barrage!!

Just as Daniella kept pulling the trigger for her two pistols, the bullets that came out of them became nonstop as it completely dismembered the dummy that was previously in front of her.

'Nice' Pearce thought with brightened eyes as he stared at Daniella who has already withdrawn her pistols back into her storage pouch.

"Nice work. Come stand beside me along with the others till when the rest finishes"Pearce eventually spoke calmly.

"Yes Captain" Daniella said as she walked towards where the others who were standing beside Pearce is.

"Hmph! Time to show my prowess" Goerge suddenly said with a proud look on his face as he stepped forward.

"Bring out that your scrappy sword and get things over with already" Robert sudden retorted with an evil grin on his face.

"You…"Goerge said with protuded veins on his forehead before he quickly calmed himself down. As soon as he did that, he immediately brought out a three foot long sword from his storage pouch.

'a grade 6 sword' Pearce thought with a surprised look on his face. The sword on Goerge's hand is completely colored in dark red as weird patterns were laid all over the sword.

As soon as he brought out the grade 6 sword, he quickly imbued it with his yellow qi as he moved.

Swoosh!!

Shadow Steps!!

'His movement spell is a grade 2 spell!' Pearce thought with a surprised look on his face while staring at the afterimages Goerge cause while dashing towards the dummy in front of him.

But as soon as the dummy appeared at his attack range, he quickly activated another spell…

Sword Net!!

As soon as he activated this spell, he swiftly and sharply cut the dummy into the a thousand pieces.

Swish!! Swish!! Swish!! Swish!!

"That's fast!" Bridget suddenly said as she narrowed her eyes in shock. Not only her but even Daniella and Hutton had the same look in their faces.

'This supposed to be a grade 3 spell but why is more powerful than a normal grade 3 spell' Pearce thought with a confused expression on his face. But understanding suddenly dawned on him as he thought…

'This must be similar to the spell Caroline used when she battled Roseline'

Caroline was a friend of Pearce when he was at the Monster Slaying Regiment branch at Country A. The spell Pearce was talking about is the spell Caroline used to defeat Roseline in a spar at the Military Combat Pavilion.

According the Pearces' replica, the spell Caroline used that time has five phases which are the initial, excellent, perfect, extraordinary and supernatural phase.

Although the spell Caroline used was a Divine spell, the one Goerge was currently using is similar to it.

'Caroline… I wonder when I will see you again' Pearce suddenly thought with a look of regret in his face.

Why he had that regretful look on his face was because he didn't have the time to know Caroline more.

'its this unknown person in my mind's fault' Pearce suddenly thought as he suddenly became irritated.

"All done Captain" Goerge suddenly said as he put his sword back into his storage pouch.

"Oh! Ok, good job" Pearce suddenly said as he came back to his senses.

"Hmph! Let's see who can beat that" Goerge suddenly said with a complacent smile in his face.

But as soon as he said that, someone abruptly dashed out.

Whoosh!!

"Who!?" Goerge suddenly exclaimed with a shocked expression on his face after he felt the oppressive aura that was beside him. But that expression quickly turned to disbelief when he saw the robost looking teen attacked the dummy in from of the later.

As soon as the teen attacked the dummy, it quickly turned into dust.

"Well… this proves that I beat what you can do pretty easily" the robost teen suddenly said as he looked at Goerge with a complacent smile also on his face.

"Robert!!"Goerge suddenly exclaimed with gnashed teeth. The robost teen who just crushed his dummy was none other than Robert Hummingbird!

'I should have asked my replica to make the dummy meant for Robert to be slightly stronger' Pearce thought with a wry smile on his face. Why he thought that way was because Robert didn't use his full strength and even he weapon to attack the dummy and the later has already turned to dust.

"So who is next?" Robert suddenly asked as he removed the complacent smile on his face while looking at the only person standing in front of a dummy.

"A-Am I next?" Veronica suddenly asked after she found out nobody was standing beside her.

"Yes you are" Pearce replied with a calm smile on his face.

"Should I use my weapon?" Veronica asked again

"Yes you should" Pearce answered again.

As soon as she got the confirmation from her leader, she slowly brought out a staff that has a strange looking crystal at the top from her storage pouch.

'Whats that?' Pearce suddenly asked in his mind as he looked at the crystal on top of Veronica's staff curiously.
