Divine Path System

Chapter 273: Taking down a Goliath

Sarah Albert initially opposed the plan of jointly attacking Charles.

"It's shameful even if you win that way."

Was what she said, but Ashtarh asked her one simple question.

"Do you have no wish you want granted?"

That was it.

Sarah didn't speak against it anymore. It wasn't because she wanted to ask for something.

It was because…

'Father, I'll prove myself. Even if brother is gone, you still have a daughter. You used to brag about Sam to everyone, I want to see you with that same smile again.'

So, here she was, in the central plains of Theodra, standing in the air and channeling her water mana.

Ka!

Ka!

Ice Dragons measuring dozens of meters bloomed into existence under her exquisite control and Sarah pointed her hand down to the middle of the central plains.

"Go!"

Roar!

The mighty ice dragons dashed down at lightning quick speed, their trails freezing the air upon contact.

"Garh!"

The Ice Dragons opened their mouths as they reached the four meter tall Semi-Wolf.

Charles Xander after transformation.

"Roar!"

The Ice Dragons' mouths worked like cannons as they shot thick and sharp icicles imbued with water mana onto the tall figure.

The coldness instantly caused the air to slow down and resulted in a white fog covering the area.

It wasn't just them, there were two Water Dragons, two Thunder Dragons and two Fire Dragons.

The Eight Elemental creations attacked simultaneously.

The deadly Fire, Water and Thunder attacks reached Charles in the blink of an eye.

Even before they hit him, Charles's skin turned red, white and numb all at the same time.

"Gulp!"

Facing the combo, even Charles didn't want to take it head on.

He made an instantaneous decision—dodge.

But…

His mind was sluggish. His body wasn't in complete sync with his thoughts.

It was off only by a dozen milli seconds, but for their level of battle, that small difference could determine victory or defeat.

"Garh!" Charles glowed as he fought against the familiar mental energy trying to control his body.

With bloodshot eyes, he glared at Xavier Bell into the distance.

The bastard telepath was a nuisance.

Charles decided to get rid of him first.

"Karh" Forcibly suppressing the external mental interference, Charles moved.

Despite his tall figure, his body blurred and he crossed hundreds of meters in the blink of an eye.

Just then, the elemental dragons crashed into the ground behind him.

Boom!

The ground suddenly shook and a huge mushroom cloud rose into the air.

Charles' brows knit together as he glanced at the four elementalists.

Philia, Sarah created the Ice and Water Dragons. Tiama, Caleb made the Thunder Dragons.

Marcus Caron made the Fire Dragons.

'Five people.' Charles realized his defenses were weaker than the combined strength of five.

It was a frustrating realization.

And he wasn't completely unscathed.

The fire dragon was the closest to him and even though he escaped the core attack, his back was scorched.

The white fur was now pitch black as his warm blood slowly flowed out of his? burnt skin.

But Charles didn't care. He needed to eliminate the telepath and he could then take on them one by one.

He kicked the ground and in an instant, was only a hundred meters from Xavier.

To him, it was a negligible distance.

"Xavier, you're over—eh?" Charles stopped speaking and jumped away in a hurry.

Kacha!

Crack!

Boom!

The space he was at previously twisted and compressed before exploding.

The explosion spread for dozens of meters, swallowing everything in its path.

'Space Awakeners!' Charles saw Helia in the distance.

If he took the attack head on, it would be more than a light injury.

'Wait, Maissa is also a space awake—'

As he realized she was missing, he sensed three presences behind him.

Shua!

The wind behind him was compressed and Charles felt a pressure looming on him.

Without thinking, he punched back, his acute senses reaching for the precise locations.

Boom!

Charles was blown away and crashed into a mountain.

The three attackers—William, Ashtarh and Rodey Nial rubbed their stinging fists.

Maissa was behind them and without a word, they extended their hand towards her.

She quickly grabbed their heads and they teleported close to Charles location.

By the time they did, Charles was already up and was about to rush forward.

Thankfully, Xavier Bell slowed him slightly and using this opportunity, the elemental dragons of ice, fire and thunder descended down on him again.

"Argh!" Charles tried to escape like last time.

But this time, the Level 6 Space Awakeners Maissa and Helia worked together and solidified the space around him.

Charles felt the extremely hard space around his body and his pupils dilated.

"Bastards!" Veins popped up on his forehead as he hurriedly exerted his strength to break the solid space restricting his body.

Even if Maiss and Helia, two most powerful space awakeners of their generation worked together, keeping him locked was impossible.

But they were't aiming for that since the beginning.

All they wanted was…

Kacha!

The solid space was broken right when the Elemental Dragons reached Charles.

"Fuck!" Charles hurriedly crossed his arms and shielded his vitals.

"Roar!"

The eight elemental dragons crashed on him.

The Ice dragons nearly froze his blood and slowed his movements as the coldness rushed through his body, injuring his internal organs.

The Fire Dragons burnt his skin away, and almost grilled him alive.

The Thunder Dragons attacked his now injured body and tore through him.

Pa!

Pa!

The lightning coursed through his body as Charles howled in pain.

Blood spilled out from every corner of his body as he pieces of his flesh breaking under the wrath of the thunder.

The thunder nearly paralyzed him.

Yet, all that wasn't enough to stop him.

"Kugh!" Charles was back on his feet and was about to move when four figures suddenly teleported above him.

After teleporting the body awakeners, Maissa vanished.

William, Ashtarh and Rodey Nial shot towards Charles at breakneck speed and their fists connected with his body.

Boom!

He was thrown into the sky like a ball, his body making an arc as blood gushed out of him.

Even in that moment, Charles was fighting off Xavier, albeit he was slowly losing control.

Boom!

Charles landed heavily on the ground. The final attack by the three broke too many bones in his body.

Charles felt like his insides were destroyed. Perhaps if he was any weaker, he'd have fainted already.

"Let's end this." Ashtarh said, prompting a nod from Sarah, Xavier and Helia.

Charles burnt the scene into his eyes.

As expected, the space around him solidified and the elementalists created the dragons again.

If he took this attack, Charles was done for. Even if he didn't try, the key would activate and he would be teleported out.

He would be eliminated!

A fire burnt in Charles heart and he felt unprecedented rage.

No!

I worked for everything I have!

Only I have the potential to quickly be a Sovereign!

Only I can make the Xander family great like my grandfather!

I mustn't lose.

My destiny is the top of Federation. I am not going down like this!

"Arghhhhh!"

Charles drew strength from the depths of his being and the solid space around him shattered like mirror.

"Attack!"

The Elemental Dragons were about to reach him and the three Body Awakeners were about to follow him.

Charles did what he never thought would do.

He kicked the ground and ran away.

His figure blurred and he quickly vanished into the distance.

….He escaped.
