Chapter 143 Aurdis's Move
Any changes that occur must increase the Dark Elf's power.
*BOOM!*
Erend slammed his fist and made the Dark Elf fall to the ground again.
The impact made the crater that was previously created even deeper.
But the effect created is much different than before. Even the Dark Elf didn't close his eyes at all when his fist hit him.
His red, bloodshot eyes stared at Erend with crazy hatred.
Then the Dark Elf swung his fist towards Erend's face.
*BUAGH!*
Erend was thrown and bounced several times on the ground. He rolled around before finally stopping.
He immediately tried to get up. 'Shit, that hit pretty hard.'
Just as Erend turned his head to look at his enemy, a palm immediately caught his face and pushed his head to the ground.
*BUAGH!*
Erend's head was slammed into the ground with a hard and fast strike.
He didn't even know what had just happened before the attack hit him.
"GRAAAHHH!!!"
The Dark Elf jumped up while lifting Erend's head. Then he shot back down to the ground slamming Erend once more.
*BUAGH!*
The Dark Elf seemed to be smiling when he finished doing that.
It seems that there is still some common sense in that corrupted head.
But whatever common sense remains, it is just the base of a crazy killer.
So he just felt happy when he saw his enemy suffer from his attacks.
However, the fun didn't last long. Suddenly Erend's hand grabbed the Dark Elf's hand and lifted it from his face.
"You having fun?" Erend asked.
*BUAGH!*
Erend's fist hit the corrupted Dark Elf leader's head.
His fist was strong enough to throw him.
But Erend didn't let the Dark Elf get thrown away. Instead, he tightened his grip on his hand.
The Dark Elf was knocked back by Erend's fist but he immediately snapped back again.
Erend gifted him a fist repeatedly.
*BUAGH!*
*BUAGH!*
*BUAGH!*
...
The barrage of fists seemed endless.
Erend slammed all his fists full of anger at him who had hurt Aurdis.
The two Dark Elves who were running towards Aurdis stopped when they saw what was happening before their eyes.
"(Even when he used the Curse of Corruption...)" the female Dark Elf was stunned. She couldn't even finish her words.
Her friend who was next to her just gritted his teeth.
The feeling of restlessness and fear seemed to be almost overflowing in his chest.
Curse of Corruption is a guarantee that the user will gain five times to ten times the strength of their previous strength.
But like all things in this world, such a great power required an equal amount of sacrifice.
That is the soul of the user.
Their leader who had activated that power on him had indeed not used all of his power. However, that power should be enough to destroy most other creatures.
But seeing the Dragonborn able to fight on a par with him. That indicates that the Dragonborn's strength is indeed extraordinary.
The Dark Elves didn't know what would happen if the two of them drained all their strength.
Maybe this place will come to destruction. And they might as well be destroyed in that battle.
"(What now?)" the female Dark Elf who had lost her hand asked in a worried tone.
"(I think we should get out of here as soon as possible.)" his friend replied.
"(But what about our assignment?)" The female Dark Elf looked at Aurdis who seemed to be still struggling to get off the hook on her leg.
Aurdis was also staring at them. Her eyes seemed to convey the same fear as them.
Meanwhile, the sound of battle that took place not far from there filled the stare between them.
Now, what to do? The Dark Elves didn't know how long it would be until an even bigger battle between the Dragonborn and their corrupted leader would erupt.
"(We can still kill the princess. The Dragonborn is still busy fighting our leader,)" the male Dark Elf said.
The male Dark Elf swallowed. His mind was very anxious because he didn't know when the big fight over there would escalate.
But, it seems they still have time to kill the princess.
"(Alright, let's go!)" the male Dark Elf finally agreed.
They both ran towards Aurdis.
Aurdis herself had expected that they would use the time when Erend was busy fighting one of their friends.
Therefore, she was also prepared.
Aurdis had actually finished removing the hook on her leg a while ago.
She put on a charade to make them think she was more vulnerable than she really was.
She couldn't give Erend more trouble than this.
The changes that occurred in one of the Dark Elves were beyond Aurdis' expectations.
Aurdis thought the situation wouldn't get any worse, but she was wrong.
She didn't know what had happened to the Dark Elf. What hidden power did he actually expend to be able to keep up with Erend?
But Erend's arrival was enough to have an impact on these assassins.
They seem more hesitant to kill her right away. So, it gives her time to prepare.
The two Dark Elves charged toward Aurdis with daggers in their hands.
Aurdis is still pretending to be struggling to get off the hook on her leg.
Suddenly they both fell into a hole that seemed to just appear under their feet.
Their bodies slid down and fell several meters underground.
Aurdis immediately moved her hand and closed the two holes.
An angry scream and curses rang out from under the holes. But the scream was soon covered by the ground.
Aurdis doesn't just cover them with dirt. She also created two Magic circles over the two holes to seal them.
Aurdis heaved a sigh of relief.
She turned towards one Dark Elf who was still maintaining her confinement and another who was injured.
