Chapter 3088 Five Minutes
Nana"s aura began to slowly settle down, but the brightness in her blue eyes was on another level still. She seemed to be constantly having insights with every pa.s.sing moment.
Despite hardly doing anything, the barrier that she, Milan and James had put up together was even growing stronger with every pa.s.sing second. Let alone her aura, they didn"t even have a chance to break through this barrier.
Endrick"s expression turned fierce as he pulled the bow from his back, firing an arrow that looked more like a beam of light. However…
PENG!
It rebounded off of the barrier, barely leaving a small nick.
His expression became ugly, not having expected such a thing. Although he didn"t have the bow"s Spirit, he should be far stronger than Nana. It was nothing more than a joke to them that she had gotten her hands on an Heirloom, and it was a humiliation they made sure the Adurna felt. But none of them actually believed she would ever be able to use it properly.
Most of the Four Great Families didn"t even know that Nana had been manipulated… and they certainly didn"t know that she had not only broken free of that suggestion, but she had grown far more powerful as a result.
However, at that moment, something unexpected happened.
Leonel raised a hand and placed it on Nana"s shoulder.
"This isn"t your fight, not now. Just digest what you need to digest."
Then, with a wave of a hand, a young man appeared.
He was seated in meditation, and even after he felt the s.h.i.+ft around him, it was a few seconds before he slowly opened his eyes.
His skin was a delicate brown, his eyes looking like a blue star had exploded within them.
However, as elegant as his appearance was, his clothing was no less simple than Leonel"s, wearing his favorite white tracksuit as always.
Elorin Hutch. Old Hutch"s grandson.
"You"ve been eating my food and swallowing up my resources for a while, it"s about time you be a little useless, don"t you think?" Leonel asked with a cold smile.
Elorin looked at Leonel, then up at those in the skies.
"Take them." Leonel said lightly.
Elorin nodded, slowly raised a hand. His gaze flickered and he swiped down.
His hand seemed to multiply in the air. Despite moving slowly, it left countless afterimages in its wake. Only those with the sharpest of gazes could see them as the ripples in time that they were.
Then, Elorin"s hand suddenly stopped before moving toward Leonel and handing him something. Or, rather… two things.
Raj"s lip twitched and Milan"s mouth was practically hanging open. They rubbed their eyes, trying to make sure they had seen properly.
Was that what they thought it was?
Endrick"s hand was empty, and Munk was almost naked.
Instead, the former"s bow, and the latter"s armor, were now being held by Elorin"s hands.

Leonel pursed his lips. "Not bad."
He took the bow and tossed the armor into the Segmented Cube.
Truthfully speaking, he was actually quite looking forward to the armor as well.
He had mutated his Metal Synergy Lineage Factor, gaining the ability to take plants and control them. The thing was that he never used it.
He had gotten a taste of it with the Sylvan Hearts before, but that had ended up destroyed during his battle against those G.o.ds. He felt that it would be interesting to study it again.
Of course, his entire Lineage Factor had changed, and a lot of factors had been changed along with it.
His Metal Synergy, for example, wasn"t quite that anymore. It was difficult for him to pinpoint exactly what was the same and what was different… but that was only to be expected after the core that combined them all was taken away.
However, he was sure that he could find something interesting from it.
As for this bow…
Leonel flipped it on his palm. Even when he slammed its head into the ground, it was taller than even himself. Cool to the touch, it felt so smooth in his palm that it might just slip out at any moment.
"Not bad." Leonel said lightly.
Leonel touched the bowstring and it cut into his finger just as expected.
"Be obedient." Leonel spoke lightly, Bow Force flaring in his eyes. His heart churned and the bow trembled in his presence.
He touched the bowstring again, and this time, it was impossibly silky smooth. Even if he tried to cut himself again, he would certainly fail.
He raised the bow and pulled back the string.
All the Light Force in the region seemed to rush toward him. Soon, a blazing arrow had formed. However, unlike Endrick"s, it soon solidified into a solid ma.s.s, swirling with gold and violet colors.
"Lower the barrier." Leonel said lightly.
Endrick and Munk"s eyes were already bulging with rage, the former having replaced the bow with another and the latter having put on a new set of armor.
These words were like music to their ears…
Until it actually happened.
The barrier vanished and suddenly the arrow disappeared from its bowstring.
PENG!
Endrick"s eyes opened wide, his head rocking backward. No one saw what happened until it bobbed forward once again… it was only then that a small, b.l.o.o.d.y hole was clear for them all to see.
BANG!
Endrick"s head exploded, the residual force blowing him apart.
"Mm…" Leonel nodded. It had been a while since he had had such a powerful bow. He had almost forgotten how important of a role it played too. "… Not bad, indeed."
Leonel lowered the bow, seemingly having already had his fun. He put it away, storing it in the Segmented Cube as well.
"Elorin, you have 5 minutes."
"I don"t need that much time." Elorin said lightly, taking a step down from his meditating hover position.
Then he suddenly vanished.
The air seemed filled with afterimages of Elorin. Many tried to swipe at them, only to hit nothing but empty air and lose their lives in the next instant.
