Free Web NovelChapter 218: Fight Back
Celia closed her mouth, not wanting to make any unnecessary noises that could attract the attention of the Boss and his men. As Celia looked at Theodore, who was beside her, she could see he was outraged.
"No wonder they weren’t around our hiding place earlier, they’re here!" Theodore snorted in annoyance. He didn’t think that they would be this cunning by going after Roxanne instead of chasing her.
"This is bad, what should we do now?" Celia felt very bad for Theodore at the moment; the problem was that it was because of her that Boss had learned of their existence.
"No problem, the car has been protected so Roxanne and Geoffrey who are inside will remain safe. We just need to figure out how to get those people out of the vicinity of the car," Theodore explained what they would do.
"But, how? They’re still under the influence of drugs, it’ll be difficult for us to penetrate them," Celia replied while shaking her head.
Theodore also raised Celia’s hand, which was holding the sword he gave her, "We already have weapons, we will attack them directly," Theodore replied with a smirk on his face.
"Even though you’ve fought them before and you still intend to fight them?" Celia looked at Theodore in disbelief.
"It can’t be helped, otherwise we won’t be able to get out of this city," Theodore replied while shrugging his shoulders unconcernedly.
After saying that, Theodore summoned his sword from within the sacred dimension, and he slowly walked out of his hiding place. Celia had no choice but to follow behind Theodore.
Boss and his men began to notice Theodore and Celia’s arrival, and their focus began to shift from the car Roxanne and Geoffrey were in to Theodore and Celia.
"Are you sure this is the right choice?" Celia timidly tugged at the hem of Theodore’s shirt; she began to feel horror fill her mind as Boss and his men ran toward them, preparing to attack.
"Help me from behind, our goal is to divert their focus. When the opportunity arises, go straight to the car!" Theodore said one last time before he started swinging his sword to fight the boss again.
Celia could only nod her head; she could fight because she had spent her whole life-fighting in self-defense. So Celia could help Theodore in this fight.
Theodore certainly didn’t intend to harm Celia; he stood in front to take all the attacks that came at them. Unlike before this time, he activated his Area of Protection skill.
That way, Theodore and Celia could focus themselves on launching attacks on Boss and his men. Meanwhile, all the attacks launched by Boss could never hit Theodore and Celia.
Seeing this strange thing happen, Boss begins to get angry, roars again and increases his attack speed. Boss’ claws, which looked very sharp, were repeatedly aimed at Theodore, but again, his claws could not hit him.
Theodore took advantage of this to launch his attacks blindly at the Boss; he even began to activate his Fire Blaze skill, and his black sword began to be enveloped in flames.
While swinging his fire sword, Theodore managed to injure Boss, who was heard screaming in pain after his skin burned after being cut by Theodore’s black sword.
Meanwhile, Celia also managed to repel two of Boss’ men with the help of Theodore’s Area of Protection. Theodore himself also managed to scare the Boss’s men who were at his side and make them retreat.
Not too satisfied with the results, Theodore intended to use his Wind Slash skill to keep them away even further. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
However, Theodore had already heard Celia, who said that they should immediately run to the car because they had managed to beat Boss and his men back.
Although it wasn’t in accordance with his plan, Theodore didn’t mind since they did have a chance to escape. With that, Theodore nodded his head and invited Celia to immediately run to their car.
"Quick, run first!" Theodore immediately told Celia to run first.
Celia no longer hesitated. She immediately ran as fast as she could towards their car. Fortunately, Roxanne and Geoffrey, who were in the car, quickly helped Theodore and Celia.
Not only that, Geoffrey himself immediately appeared from the roof of the car and shot fire arrows at Boss and his men, trying to block their attempts to chase Theodore and Celia.
"I’ll hold them off!" Geoffrey unhesitatingly shouted to Theodore to tell him not to hold his speed.
With Geoffrey’s help, Theodore and Celia were finally able to get into the car safely. Roxanne, who was behind the wheel, immediately drove the car away from that place.
"Are they still chasing us, Geof?" Without looking back, Roxanne asked Geoffrey who was still on the roof.
"No, it seems like the Boss is afraid of fire. He’s no longer chasing after being hit by my fire arrow," Geoffrey replied while shaking his head; soon, he got back into the car.
Meanwhile, Theodore and Celia were finally able to sigh with relief after getting into the car.
"Where have you guys gone? I was looking for you but couldn’t find you, we ran into those crazy people!" Roxanne cursed loudly as she thought back to how she ran into that group of lunatics.
"I was injured and Celia helped me, we hid somewhere to avoid them," Theodore explained briefly, still not in the mood to explain what happened to him.
Roxanne and Geoffrey turned to Theodore at the same time, not believing that Theodore could be injured after all this time. He had always been able to defeat his enemies quite easily.
But Theodore just remained silent without answering anything. So Roxanne and Geoffrey also turned to Celia to ask for confirmation of what Theodore had said earlier.
Celia, who was being stared at like that for the first time, immediately made a mistake. Finally, she nodded her head a little awkwardly.
"Wow! Is the Boss that strong that he can make Brother Theo get seriously injured?" Geoffrey immediately shook his head in disbelief because as long as he had seen Theodore, he had never been so severely injured that he had to be helped by others.
"If that’s the case, we have to get out of this city quickly, otherwise we could die in their hands," Roxanne immediately accelerated their car.
They continued their journey using the route that Geoffrey and Celia had made earlier. And none of them brought up what Celia had done again.
Meanwhile, Celia herself could not calm down because she still felt guilty about Theodore and the others. So Celia decided to speak up and apologize to the others.
"I didn’t mean to sell you guys to Boss, sorry for getting you into trouble!" Celia lowered her head while speaking in a fairly loud voice.
Instantly, Theodore and the others looked at Celia intensely.
