Chapter 1049 Water Elementals
Faced with the refusal of a boy with strong negative powers, the Water Elementals stiffened, their expressions freezing at Vicente's deep gaze in their direction.
"Are you willing to go to war with the Water Elemental Tribe?" One of them asked, his voice torn with negative emotions, obviously preparing for combat. Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"As I said, this group is my friends and I will escort them back to their territory. If you insist on standing in our way, I'm afraid we'll have no choice but to fight."
As he spoke, Vicente let more of his powers escape from his body, materializing the Throne of Darkness, while, one by one, his indigo and cyan pentagrams showed themselves.
The Water Elementals understood better why this human was so different from the others they had seen or heard of. But they remained motionless, while each of them circulated their mana, also showing their pentagrams.
Unlike humans and other magical beings capable of hunting pentagrams, Water Elementals, like Fairies and Elves, only had one pentagram of origin and could not add more essences to themselves.
But each of those individuals were Grand Magus and a single pentagram for them was worth as much as or even more than a whole set of magicians.
They all had indigo pentagrams, with only the strongest, 3-Star, having some violet symbols and lines in his magical essence. Vicente beat his opponent in this regard, however. Apart from the last pentagram he had absorbed in Light Cay, all the other indigo pentagrams had very distinct violet symbols and lines, demonstrating their proximity to the next qualitative level.
"Then I'm afraid we'll have to test the powers of this expert from Light Cay!" said the strongest elemental before moving at the same time as his race-mates, launching a barrage of similar attacks against Nan's group.
Vicente smiled as he saw the mud water leave the ground and join the growing floating water around those individuals, quickly turning the air into a sea lump, reaching him and making him feel as if he had just entered an aquatic dimension.
He felt solid blue currents forming around his limbs, as harpoons and tridents attacked him from different sides.
'That's interesting,' he thought as he felt unable to escape the aquatic grasp of these creatures, flashing his mana to adapt his airways. As he did so, black holes appeared around the parts of his body where the enemies' chains and weapons would hit him.
The Water Elementals moved to act against Nan while his major efforts acted against Vicente.
In the middle of their path, however, they saw and felt the enemy being pierced by their attacks without showing any injury.
"What?" One of them asked himself in shock as she took control of her ice harpoon again.
Then, just as this woman was about to repeat her attack, her shadow seemed to solidify, with a diabolical figure forming behind her, trapping her bodily limbs.
The ground in the area shook strongly as several metallic blades covered in darkness emerged from the ground, cutting through the water and leaving trails visible to all those directly or indirectly involved in this combat.
Vicente frowned as he saw his blades lose strength and precision as they traveled through the water, noticing a weakness that he hadn't yet noticed in his power. But he didn't let it get to him and adapted to the situation when he saw he wouldn't be able to affect his enemies that way.
A giant bolt of lightning formed in the sky, breaking through the darkness of the surroundings and striking the water at specific points.
But this was no ordinary water. There were no mineral salts in it and this attempt to electrocute his opponents failed terribly.
This, however, was not the last of Vicente's attempts. As the enemies came closer to reaching Nan, he finally managed to affect them, turning aside their attacks to use the electromagnetic fields in the area to drive them away and the element of water itself enveloping them.
All the elementals felt an intense repulsive force act against them, preventing them from advancing any closer to Nan, while weakening them by dispersing the super-concentrated water element in that place.
The 3-Star Grand Magus was the only one who showed any resistance against Vicente and quickly noticed that if he didn't act against his opponent, all his allies would fall.
He crossed the space by means of a domain skill, appearing at the back of where Vicente was sitting on his throne, attacking at close range with a large blue axe.
Vicente looked away, feeling minimally threatened for the first time in this fight. 'That's a special ability.' He thought as he moved one of his hands as if to defend himself.
The enemy continued forward, doubting that his target would protect himself with bare hands.
In the next second, he saw a golden glow emerge from Vicente's fingertips, shooting straight into his eyes like extremely bright arrows flying at him.
He showed an expression of pain as he closed his eyes and moved his head a little to the side, losing precious milliseconds that were enough for Vicente to move and appear behind him.
"Your attack is powerful. It could hurt me. But only if it hits me." Vicente's voice sounded inside the elemental's head, as a black weapon pierced through the blue, semi-transparent figure, imbuing darkness into its magical essence.
The strongest Water Elemental in the area immediately emitted a darker color throughout its body, expressing deep horror a moment before one of Vicente's hands touched the back of its head.
"Formidable. But you're not my opponent," Vicente said, the last words the Water Elemental heard before its existence exploded, with a dark blue mixture of a viscous liquid spreading through the surroundings.
The elemental water in the vicinity dissipated, returning to the upper atmosphere or the ground, while only the weakest Grand Magus remained, suppressed by Vicente's electromagnetic powers.
Vicente had used up more than half his strength to protect his group and act against the enemies, finally getting the upper hand. But instead of finishing his opponents, he whistled and ordered Rex to move against some of the weaker elementals.
"Defeat them for me." He ordered as he sat back down on the Throne of Darkness, while giving those creatures a chance to try and communicate with reinforcements.
His sensory ability came into play as Rex acted, making him notice how premeditated the enemy group's actions had been there today.
