Humiliating everyone

"Why don't you just let us go? We're agents of the hunters' association; it wouldn't be wise of you to have anything to do with us," Arnaldo said, glancing quickly at the exit portal and then turning to look at the deputy leader.

"You are an agent"

Tatiana pointed a short sword at Alex and said in disgust.

"Not him, he's nothing more than a criminal that I will personally punish, sword saint, if you want to leave this place alive, you just need to leave the criminal behind"

Being treated like a scoundrel, Alex felt offended, but remained silent, he just glanced at Tiffany from the corner of his eye.

"I believe you know that Alex is my teacher's son, do you still think I'm going to leave him here? Hmph " Arnaldo snorted coldly.

"Your teacher's son or not, he is still a scoundrel who will pay for his crimes with death," she said, her free hand holding her slender waist and the sword.

The wind blew violently, when she saw it, Tatiana had already made a move, the sword that came towards Alex's head was stopped by a golden sword with a draconic carving.

Alex stepped back to give the sword saint and Tatiana space to fight, the bloodlust made the air blow faster, making it difficult to breathe near the woman.

"It seems you really made your choice, it's a shame that someone so talented dies here today" Tatiana said as her blows pushed Arnaldo back,

"Me, killed by you? I didn't know the vice guild leader could tell jokes."

"I want to see you laugh when you have separated your head from your body."

Alex saw Arnaldo lead Tatiana back just as they had planned, it seems she was either arrogant enough to think she could beat Arnaldo, or she was confident that her people could take care of Alex without her intervention.

In an instant Alex found himself surrounded on all sides, Sarah, Daniel, Rouke, Liam, Brem and the rest of the blue spirit guild members, all of them exuding killing intent.

For Alex's peace of mind, Tiffany didn't join the people who wanted him dead, she was standing in the distance just watching the scene unfold.

There was a great improvement in the girl's behavior, it seems that she matured a little, before she looked at him with repulsion and fear, but now it was different, her eyes towards him were distant, a complete stranger who had done something bad to her and consequently did not want to see him anymore.

That was exactly it, for Tiffany, if Alex died it was fine with her, but if her sister decided to spare Alex she wouldn't actively oppose it either, as long as the man never appeared in front of her again.

"Rouke, you're the leader here, why do you want my death so much?" Alex asked with a friendly smile.

"Kid, there's no point in begging for your life, the vice leader has already decreed your death." Rouke held his heavy axe, preparing to attack at any moment.

"Can't you just let him run away and say I escaped? After all, we were once battle companions, we slept on the roof of the same cave and he even saved you once, you still remember, don't you?"

Alex kept his smile, he hadn't drawn his gun yet symbolizing that he didn't want to fight.

"I'm aware that you contributed a little to our escape from the swarm of mutant spiders, but your merit was nullified when your crazy plan almost cost us our lives," Rouke said, yelling.

"If we had waited for help like I said before, we wouldn't have gone through all that, if it had been like I said the vice-leader of the guild would have calmly rescued us in the cave where we were" He concludes angrily.

"You may even be right, but we had no guarantee that help would arrive in time and most importantly, what about your friends? If we hadn't gone there, I believe they would be dead."

Dito Rouke remained silent and was unable to argue against it.

"Enough with the fallacies, it's useless to argue with a dead man."

"Dead man you say? How about you materialize such words, we'll see if you have what it takes" Alex said disdaining everyone around him.

"Don't be arrogant boy, I alone would be enough to end your life, we are only attacking together because we each want a piece of the reward"

"Reward? There's a bounty on my head? And here I thought you were attacking me out of some twisted sense of justice. At the end of the day, you intend to kill an agent of the association out of greed? How laughable." Alex mocked them.

The members looked at their leader angrily, now they had a bad image, but who cares, as soon as Alex was killed, no one would know about it.

"Don't pay attention to what he's saying, let's finish him off quickly before anyone else from the hunters' association comes," Daniel said, preparing to attack the boy.

Phantom Step lv3 , Daniel disappeared into the shadows, the noise of his footsteps disappeared from existence, then he decided to use the bloody strike lv2, this way Alex would bleed to death and the reward would be his.

With mastery Alex not only saw through the lv3 phantom step , thanks to his high perception attribute, but thanks to his 91 point agility he dodged the lv2 bloody blow .

Daniel was surprised by Alex's agile movements as he dodged his careful attack as if it were nothing but empty air, how could someone at Star Level 1 be so strong.

It wasn't just Daniel who was surprised, even Rouke would have difficulty defending against such an attack, and he possessed the guardian class.

Brem was the first to make his move, dark camouflage lv2 , his body blurred in the dark atmosphere of the dungeon, then he drew his bow, used eye of aurora lv1 which revealed his enemy's weaknesses.

Triple shot lv2 , two sets of three arrows appeared practically out of nowhere, fired at high speed towards Alex.

Alex used lightning step lv2 , and the 6 arrows were in his hands.

This time even Tiffany paid attention, once might be luck, twice more proved the guy's abilities.

Now it was Liam's turn.

Excatze Field lv2 , this skill caused Alex to lose 50% of his agility, drastically decreasing his speed, this skill was the enemy of sprinters.

Liam wasn't done yet, he then used another of his abilities, Mana Orbs lv3 , three floating orbs fired energy projects that locked onto his enemy's location.

To complement his companion's attack while the orbs locked on and fired projectiles at Alex, Rouke did his part, seeing the leader's movement everyone retreated, Seismic Hammer lv2.

The muddy ground opened up before Rouke's axe, smoke filling the air.

When the sound of lightning was heard, the smoke dispersed in an instant. Everyone's jaw dropped as they saw Alex standing there like a Greek god.

"If I remember correctly, I promised you a trump card, how about I show it to you now?"

Beautiful purple hair fluttered against the wind, electric currents swirled around her body, giving a purple beryllium to her worn black suit, a purple sword with long thorns crackled with lightning.

Alex really liked the looks of his enemies, he would have liked to have a third person view of himself, but it wasn't possible.

"Are you going to face me with the knights or without ?" Alex asked, his eyes glowing purple.

He really wanted to ask this question, he remembered that someone had made a similar promise, although a little different, he just couldn't remember it at the moment.

Either way, he wanted to know his opponents' response.

Unfortunately, the response Alex was expecting came in the form of multiple attacks coming his way, to defend himself he only used one skill.

Call of the Round Table Lv2

In front of Alex two knights appeared to protect him, a huge barrier of ice was launched by his new knight.

"Is he a summoner?" Someone asked, giving Rouke an inquisitive look.

"How can a summoner emit such great pressure, he must be someone with the mixed class and star level 3" Sarah said to which everyone readily believed, that was the only explanation.

"How are we going to kill someone with three stars and who can summon knights?" Daniel asked with a frown.

"We are superior in numbers, we can win, not to mention that since it is a mixed class, I don't believe that its summons are great things" Brem said preparing to attack again.

"Better not underestimate him and his summons, he had the confidence to defeat the Spider Queen and it was his summon that protected us, you remember the ability to self-explode, right?"

As much as it hurt to admit it, Rouke had to do it for the sake of his team, he knew some of Alex's abilities and underestimating someone like that would be critical,

"Rouke is right, you remember he survived the vice-leader attacks, don't you?" Sarah contributed to the warning.

"It seems the easy money we were promised won't be so easy," Brem lamented.

White eyes covering the entire pupil, long hair the same color as her eyes, a delicate, oval face, beautiful purple skin, black armor protecting her body, and to finish, two short swords in both of the knight's hands.

On the other side, a new knight.

Blue eyes that reflected the vastness of the ocean, beautiful and soft hair that resembled the perfect sky, purple skin smoother than a baby's, tight armor as black as the night and to finish, a double-headed spear.

The knights were ready for battle, each of them holding their weapons
