"Don't hear his blabber," Oswyn said. "Just pummel him down."

 Eugan turned into his fireman form again—as it was his strongest spell. Oswyn also used his strongest move, and a golem appeared. Xod together with his remaining three awakened trees launched a volley of attacks. 

However, just five minutes later they were beaten black and blue by Segast. Though the shining blue light on his body had also become a lot dimmer, as he had said—he didn't seem to be affected after using such an overpowered spell.

"How could this be?" Oswyn wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and eyed Segast indignantly. Unable to accept his defeat. Xod and Eugan were not doing any better, either. Eugan had turned into his normal form while Xod had lost his remaining three Awakened Trees.

Segast looked at the trio and revealed his toothy grin, "What do you think? Powerful, isn't it?" He eyed the trio one by one. "You can also get so many powerful spells like mine if—"

"If we become Bone Spear Tower's dogs?" Oswyn said.

"That's why I like you, man! Easy to talk."

"Go eat the arse of your master, bastard!" replied Oswyn, and grinned at Segast as if feeling quite accomplished—at his creativity of the curse—for the first time since the battle started.

"You really have a death wish, don't you?" Segast's face turned cold. "Then, I will fulfil it for you!"

"Hey, hey, doggy uncle."

Segast froze as he heard the voice and turned towards the newcomer. "It's you!"

"So what if it's me, uncle dog?" Kadyn said confusedly. "Dogs are to be kept on the doors of their master's house, to watch—a watchdog? Yes, Watchdog, what are you doing here?"

"Pfff!" Oswyn burst into a peal of laughter. "A watchdog? Indeed, that's what he is."

Eugan and Xod as well grinned, a refreshed smile appeared on their crestfallen faces.

Segast's face, on the other hand, twisted into a rage. "I will crush you!" he shouted and punched Kadyn.

"Careful!" the trio warned.

Kadyn curled his lips and vanished from where he was standing. Segast and the other three's expressions froze. "S-space element?"

"Boom!"

Before he could walk out of his stupor an attack arrived from behind, sending him toppling in the dirt. 

"Crush him!" A shout resounded. Kadyn turned around and found it was Oswyn. Kadyn never liked the man before this day. However, today he had seen him and the other two in a completely different light. The one he thought to be the most trustworthy appeared to be a traitor. Faces indeed lie. Lies are indeed in the faces. People's faces, hiding secrets beyond belief, hiding malice beyond comparison.

"I will kill you!" Segast sprang from the ground and lunged at Kadyn like a hungry wolf he was. Kadyn once again vanished. Segast immediately stopped and turned around where Kadyn was supposed to appear. Then he sneered, "Humph, do you think I am going to fall for the same attack again. Naïve!"

"Boom!"

As he shouted a claw landed on his back, making him scream in agony. Last time Kadyn had used his normal hand to attack. This time, however, he used his evolved right hand, painting Segast's back red in blood. If it wasn't for his buttressed body, he might have been wounded far worse than he did. After all, Kadyn's hand was too powerful. Mysterious even.

"It is very important to read the moves of your enemy before he attacks," Kadyn said. "I have learned the lesson after many trials and errors. Don't worry, I won't give you a chance to learn it."

"Humph!" Segast snorted. "You can hit me because I am in my physical form. How would you deal with me if I do this!" he said and transformed his entire body into water. One could see through him. 

Segast was furious, embarrassed and confused. He couldn't believe that Kadyn wounded him. He could tell that it hasn't been long since Kadyn reached rank 3 mage—he was just a low rank 3 mage. So how could he use rank 3 space spells so spectacularly? Furthermore, where the hell did he get the Teleportation spell? He was just a lowly shopkeeper!

Kadyn narrowed his eyes as he looked at the man in a water form and vanished again. 

"Haha, do you think you can do anything to me?" Segast remained standing as Kadyn appeared in front of him. Not doing anything. Just laughing mockingly.

Kadyn turned his claw into a fist and smashed at Segast's chest. The trio who had completely drained themselves looked at the scene and then shook their heads. They knew that it was futile. Only the wood element could deal with him at this moment. Fire could do the same thing as well, but the fire mage needed at the same rank as Segast at the very least.

"Boom!" "Pfff!"

A muffled sound echoed and Segast's expression froze. Same happened with Xod and the other two. They could not believe what they were seeing. A physical attack had injured Segast in his water form. He coughed the blood as he was smashed on the ground like a rice sack. Moreover, previously, his body was strong but after turning into an elemental form the effect of that spell vanished. Standing at the same sport was his biggest mistake. Stupid even.

Kadyn eyed his right hand and curled his lips. He just wanted to check if his evolved hand would work against Segast. He didn't have much hope. It was known to everyone that in the elemental form one could not hurt someone with physical attacks.

Kadyn walked towards Segast crouched down beside the unmoving body. Then he grabbed 'his' ragged hair and turned his bloody face towards him. Segast eyed Kadyn with hate and rage. Kadyn curled his lips and said, "What happened to you, uncle dog?"

"Ptff!"

Segast coughed another mouthful of blood and fainted. Kadyn turned towards Oswyn and asked, "Did I say anything wrong?"

The trio shook their heads as an amused look appeared on their faces.. Kadyn stood up and then turned towards the bloody battle.
