Seeing the man with the scythe showing no signs of stopping, the Knight with a newly conjured sword in his hand understood that there was no time to hesitate.

/SWOOSH/ /CLANK/

Without even a moment of rest, Thomas reappeared in front of the knight with his scythe aiming toward his neck.

But, the attack was deflected at the last second.

"HA!"

With a loud shout of spirit rising, the knight swung his sword in an attempt to counterattack.

/CRACK/ /BOOM/

At that moment, something interesting happened.

A pillar of rock appeared from the ground, blocking the strike.

"Chant less Magic!"

And it was magic without a chant, thanks to Thomas' high talent at earthen magic.

In the first place, there was a reason why he was the leader of such a group.

It was not only because of his rank being higher but also thanks to him having more talent than his brothers.

"Heh, now am I foolish?"

/SWOOSH/ 

With his scythe swung again, he attacked the momentarily dumbfounded knight.

Of course, being a warrior, the knight was already familiar with such situations. Therefore, he was able to recuperate at a fast rate.

But, it was still a momentary pause, which would prove to be fatal.

/CLANK/ /CLANK/

With his sword and shield constantly trying to block the scythe being swung, the knight was on the losing side of the confrontation.

"HORA!"

With a loud shout, Thomas attacked the knight again, with his scythe shining bright red.

"Infernus, Infernus, burning bright, with your power, ignite my might."

At the same time, chanting with his mouth moving his mana.

/SWIRL/

At the end of his weapon, a flame abrupted.

"Dual attribute!"

Realizing the incoming attack, the knight also took a defensive position.

"Great World Tree, hear my plea. Bestow upon me a shield of destiny, a protection that shall forever be."

With his sword and shield stabbed to the ground, the man chanted, bringing upon a bright green light shield that suddenly abrupted from the ground.

At that moment, a bright green shield clashed with the bright red flames.

/BOOM/ /SWOOSH/

And the result was something to be expected, with a shield deflecting the attack and flames swirling all around, swallowing everything.

"Ho. You are a strong opponent. I shall give you that."

At that moment, there was a faint smile on Thomas' face.

"It has been a while since I killed such a strong opponent. Is it him, Weapon?"

With his Scythe raised, he took his attacking position again while asking.

"It is not. The mana is coming from the carriage over here."

With his weapon answering, a faint smile appeared on his face.

"I see…. Then, I can kill this guy, right?"

"….. You can."

"Good."

/SWOOSH/

Just like that, he dashed towards the knight again, this time his attacks getting more and more ferocious.

"I see….. You have an evil spirit with you."

/CLANK/

With his sword confronting the scythe, Knight mumbled.

"So what?"

/CLANK/ /CLANK/

With each of their weapons clashing, there were sparks flying everywhere.

"YOU HERETIC!"

With a loud shout, the knight charged.

"With the power of the World Tree, I charge forth to battle. My sword glows with magic, ready to rattle."

/SWOOSH/

Disappearing from the place he was staying, he appeared in front of Thomas again with his shield attacking this time.

As a knight that was proficient with magic, thanks to the spell he used, his speed had already far exceeded what Thomas would have expected, which caught him off guard.

/CLANK/ /SWOOSH/ /THUD/

Although Thomas parried the attack, thanks to the strength behind, he was blasted by it, leaving an opening, which would be one of the worst things he could do right here.

/SHINE/

At that moment, a bright green aura started shining from the knight.

Even though, from the beginning, both of them were using their auras, this time, the aura knight was using something else.

It had more power in itself, showing the knight had yet to put his all into this fight.

"YOU SHALL BE REMOVED FROM THIS WORLD! The follower of evil."

With a loud shout, the knight started mumbling something.

"From the roots of World Tree, I shall bring the Judgement."

With his sword raised to the sky, he finished channeling his aura to his sword.

"Secret Sword of World tree. Eldritch's Edge."

/SWOOSH/ /BOOM/

With a fast sweep, he lowered his sword in the trajectory of a vertical slash.

And following was a bright green beam that sprouted from the tip of his sword, that cut everything that came into its way.

Neither the ground nor the air was freed from the attack, with it slashing through them.

And, of course, the one that was the main target of the attack was not able to get away from it either.

/SWOOSH/ /SPLURT/ /THUD/

With a bright green beam slashing through the man with a scythe, there was a sound of something falling to the ground.

It was something that was essential for a fighter.

It was an arm.

An arm that was severed from the body.

"Kurgh- Cough-"

And the body that was the owner of the arm was not in good condition either.

With blood spurting from the place where the arm should have normally been attached, Thomas was coughing blood from his mouth.

"You humans and your foolishness show no signs of ending. In the end, a human will never be able to win against us, mighty elves."

/TOCK/ /TOCK/

With his heavy armor making the sound of metal clashing, the knight reached Thomas.

/THUD/

With a fast speed, the knight kicked him from his chest, blasting him off.

"Those who don't know their place, it is my job to teach them as the knight of the World Tree."

Grabbing Thomas from his head, the knight raised him from the ground with one arm.

And with his other hand, he conjured the same green sword he did at the beginning.

/STAB/

And stabbed Thomas in his chest with his sword piercing out Thomas' back.

"BROTHEEEER!"

"THOOOOMASSSS!"

Between the sounds of two other men shouting, Thomas had found his end…..
