From the very back, miles away, looking through his scope, Tobias[Logan] had a good view of everything that was happening. What he was surprised about was, even with the power of his new weapon and the use of blood crystals, that the leader Hulian[Muka] was able to avoid his attacks. Leaders were clearly stronger than he had anticipated.
As he was confident, if the weapon was to be used against a vampire knight, they would struggle to avoid such an attack.
The other problem was, unlike last time, Tobias[Logan] was hoping there would also be those on Archer[Quinn]'s side. Those that would not join the battle. That way, Wyatt[Borden] or Tony[Peter] would be able to get through, but that didn't happen at all.
When the sword was lifted, Tobias[Logan] started to imagine a life without Archer[Quinn] for a brief second. What would be left of all of them after it happened? Would they be lost without a leader, would someone take his place, and would Tobias[Logan] be able to find out the truth of his family? Lastly, he realised how much of a loss Archer[Quinn] would personally be for him.
However, the blade was stopped, and two of the people Tobias[Logan] had a lot of faith in were seen on stage.
He had no clue how Archer[Quinn] was able to do it, but Archer[Quinn] was always full of surprises, just like the towers he had made. What Tobias[Logan] liked, even more, was that both Simon[Leo] and Paul were wearing the masks he had created for them.
Before, when arriving in the settlement, Tobias[Logan] had attempted to make a call their way, but the signal wouldn't even get through. He had a suspicion that it was quite possibly due to the Royal guards surrounding the area.
Maybe they had predicted that someone from the outside, or the human world would try to contact them, and had set up a device to block all incoming communications. Still, he knew his masks worked after testing them with Tony[Peter]'s mask. Which meant only messages sent within the tenth castle were being intercepted.
'A similar device used on as the teleporter blocker perhaps. If I have time to study these, I can find out how they are affecting our equipment.'
Now seeing the two of them there right next to Archer[Quinn], they could coordinate everything together. With three, Tobias[Logan] thought this was nearly impossible, but with Paul and Simon[Leo] they might be able to pull it off.
"Tony[Peter], Wyatt[Borden], make sure the leaders don't reach the stage. Simon[Leo], Paul, I'm counting on you both to break Archer[Quinn] free. If we can get out of this, I think I have a way we can all get back to the human world. Sorry I can't help any more than that." Tobias[Logan] said, and everyone went straight into action.
On the stage were Charles[Bryce], Hulian[Muka] and the two Royal Knights that would always stay by the King's side. Emilo[Kyle] and Prima. Immediately, Simon[Leo] went to strike at the cuffs surrounding Alex, who was closest to him. His sword had sliced cleanly through. The cuffs fell to the floor, and Alex was finally free, quickly moving behind Simon[Leo].
A material that even Archer[Quinn] couldn't break with his natural strength was broken with a strike.
This was out of everyone's expectations, but they didn't know Simon[Leo] was using the power of his second stage Qi. As Simon[Leo] turned around to free Archer[Quinn] next, another person had appeared in front of him.
"Your skills are adequate, but skill won't mean much if I'm faster than you, " Prima said smiling, striking Simon[Leo] across the c.h.e.s.t with his small rapier he had in his hand.
Simon[Leo] was unable to block the attack, but at the same time, when the blade scr.a.p.ed his skin, it did nothing.
"Does speed really mean much if I can defeat you in one strike!" Simon[Leo] replied, striking diagonally upward, going across Prima's c.h.e.s.t. Unlike his attack that had done nothing to Simon[Leo], Simon[Leo]'s strike had revealed a deep cut ripping through his clothes and piercing his skin.
'This is the tenth's Vampire Knight? Why does he have the strength of a Vampire Leader!' What was even more worrying was the wound wasn't healing, and a stinging pain was felt within him, that was soon starting to spread.
"You idiot!" Elsa[Cindy] shouted from below, off the stage. "Remember that the tenth family has been harbouring a blood fairy, and the report from the attack stated that they have weapons made from their blood, don't get hit! Remove it with your blood control now!"
But it was a little too late for that warning.
On the other side, Archer[Quinn] had summoned Paul, and Emilo[Kyle] was now in his way, blocking his path. Just like when Paul had fought against Francis[Richard]son[Francis[Francis[Francis[Richard]]]son[Francis[Francis[Richard]]son[Francis[Richard]son[Jill]]]], he had wasted no time activating his soul weapon, and floating around in a circle were six green balls of poison.
However, this opponent was not as easy to deal with as Francis[Richard]son[Francis[Francis[Francis[Richard]]]son[Francis[Francis[Richard]]son[Francis[Richard]son[Jill]]]]. The poison was fast, but if it couldn't hit his enemy, there wasn't much Paul could do.
Every time a ball would get close, Emilo[Kyle] was able to use his cape to block the attack, and then immediately, he would change it to a spiral, acting as a large spear, thrusting it forward.
Paul's poison was purely an offensive skill[ability], so he had to rely on his speed to dodge the attacks. He couldn't focus on trying to attack with his poison skill[ability] at the same time.
'You know what would be good right now, if someone hadn't taken my damn gloves.' Paul thought, but he hoped that at least Tony[Peter] was making good use of them right now.
For he was also surrounded by three strong vampires, one of them being the Vampire Leaders Blake[Jin], and Monday[Sunny], while the other one was a Vampire Knight, a Wight like himself.
For a second, Tony[Peter] was slightly confused as he looked at the Wight that wore a hood, covering most of his head, but it still allowed him to see his distinctive facial features.
"Aren't you meant to be dead? Wyatt[Borden] flattened your head last time?" Tony[Peter] said, vaguely remembering the events when attempting to save Arian[Fex].
"That was my brother!" The Wight shouted in anger and was the first one to go in, throwing out his fist. At the same time, Tony[Peter] did the same. When the two fists had collided though, there was a clear winner as the Wight's fist shattered within itself. Knowing what he was tough, Tony[Peter] knew he would heal, so he used the spike gloves and stabbed them into his c.h.e.s.t.
It was too fast for the Wight to react.
'How?' The Wight thought. 'I saw him fight against my brother last time. I and my brother are equal in strength, and last time he was outmatched. Could it be, his creator really has gotten that much stronger in such a short time?'
Tony[Peter] was getting ready to use his new weapon to stab right through the Wight's head, finishing one of them off early, but before that could happen, some blood could be seen flying through the air heading his way.
A few seconds later and the blood exploded, it wasn't a large explosion, but it served its purpose as Blake[Jin] just wanted the two of them to be split away. While Tony[Peter] was startled, Monday[Sunny] took advantage of the opportunity. She didn't have an skill[ability] that was that helpful in a fight, but she was still a leader who would be able to match Tony[Peter]'s strength and speed.
However, when she took a step forward, another red shot came out from afar and had stopped her from moving in.
'I have to be careful, ' Monday[Sunny] thought as she looked at the ground where the red beam had hit. It had caused quite a lot of damage to the floor. She remembered the power from before, how it had nearly knocked the sword out of Hulian[Muka]'s hand with his grip strength.
Although everyone was faring well, at the same time, Archer[Quinn] was worried, as it didn't look like they would be able to do much, and there were still leaders and vampire knights that hadn't joined the fight.
Looking at Wyatt[Borden], two spikes had appeared out of his back, he wasn't using his full strength, but he was constantly trying to get out of the position he was in so he could at least get to where Archer[Quinn] was.
'If I use more strength, then it might shorten my time.' Wyatt[Borden] thought. 'But how much time do we have?'
The same thought was also running through Archer[Quinn]'s mind. Alex was on stage, hiding behind that of Simon[Leo]. He was worried that if he attempted to fly, they would quickly hit him down out of the sky.
While Archer[Quinn] was looking to his right at Alex, he didn't notice that a blood swipe was coming his way directly at him.
'I have to get out of here!' Archer[Quinn] thought and started to fill in his energy with the red energy inside his body. Still, he soon noticed that this was a waste of time, as the blood swipe was blocked, and a shadow was cast over Archer[Quinn] from the person's back.
"Why did you stop my attack!" Elsa[Cindy] shouted from below. "What do you think you are doing, Charles[Bryce]?"
