Chapter 243: Taking Care Of The Trash

Richard stood rooted to the ground, not expecting Grey was able to deflect his attack with nothing more than a wave of his hand.

“Impossible!” He refused to believe it.

Smith, on the other hand, was already shaking, he could already see the power difference between them, he’s not as stupid as Richard and refuses to believe what was in front of him.

“Please, spare me.” He instantly begged for mercy.

What was important now was keeping his life. Given how adamant he previously was to kill Klaus, he was sure Klaus wouldn’t think twice before killing him.

Klaus who just stood up looked at him in disgust, “At least fight with pride.”

Boom!

Richard attacked once again, this time, he sent out a huge fire stream, hoping to cover up the group with it.

“Haha, I don’t believe you guys are what you said you were!” He laughed after seeing that his attack wasn’t blocked this time.

They waited for a few seconds and the fire slowly started dying down, looking closer, they didn’t sense any movement from where the group was previously sitting.

“Haha, you see, they were only posers. I think there was something that made the effect of the wine not affect them.” Richard broke into a fit of laughter.

Smith who was previously afraid looked around properly, after not sensing anything, he wanted to celebrate but he was still slightly optimistic. He decided to celebrate after the fire died down completely and was sure they had truly defeated Grey and the others.

Just as Richard was about to turn around, Klaus’ voice could be heard from the flames.

“You think this would actually hurt us? Ha! Don’t make me laugh.” He said in amusement.

“Huh!” Richard turned around.

The fire was already almost completely down, and he could see an ice wall that was protecting the group from his attack.

“Tsk tsk, such a shame, this was a good garden.” Klaus shook his head as he removed the ice wall that was in front of them.

Grey and the others soon came into full view of Richard and Smith, and they noticed that they haven’t even moved from their previous spot, Grey and Reynolds were even drinking and chatting casually, while Void had mysteriously appeared on Alice’s lap once again. The flowers around them had been destroyed, but the ones behind them were protected by the ice wall.

“I won’t accept this, attack together.” Richard ordered.

“Okay.” Smith nodded after managing to gather some confidence.

“Let’s end this quickly, I still need to get some sleep.” Klaus said nonchalantly.

This wasn’t a battle that would really bother him, all he wanted to do now was to rob the treasury of some coins before leaving. Once they’ve left this place, he would sleep peacefully in an Inn.

Richard sent a fireball towards Klaus while Smith caused an earth spike to come out of the ground, below Klaus.

“Hmph! Ants.” Klaus snorted before making ice rise from the ground just as the earth spike was coming from the ground. Standing on top of the ice, he rose higher into the air.

Bang!

The ice pillar which rose along with Klaus was hit by the fireball that Richard sent over, but due to Klaus’ high proficiency with ice, it couldn’t break it.

Richard sent another fireball at Klaus who was standing on the ice mid-air, and Klaus casually moved the ice, dodging all the fireballs coming his way.

“Don’t let them go, it’ll notify others.” Grey said before using his water element to stop the fireballs before they exploded in the air and drawing attention to them.

He forgot Void isolated the area and acted unconsciously, it was only after destroying them did he recall it.

‘It’s not bad being a little too cautious.’ He thought.

There’s a chance that the fireball might draw attention to them, that was a chance he didn’t want to take.

“Okay, boss.” Klaus said sarcastically.

“Attack the pillar that’s supporting him.” Richard switched tactics.

Since he couldn’t hit Klaus while he was in the air, he would bring him down.

Smith made an earth sword that he sent towards the pillar supporting Klaus in the air.

Klaus smirked and sent an ice spear that he used to block the earth sword that Smith sent towards it.

Richard on the other hand sent a barrage of fire arrows towards it.

Klaus raised both hands into the air exaggerating and a water wall rose almost six meters into the air, easily blocking the attacks sent out by Richard.

Klaus stayed on the defensive for another minute, easily blocking the attacks of both Richard and Smith anytime they attacked. He was still mid-air, showing off his awesomeness.

“Time to end this.” Klaus smirked.

The ice pillar he was standing on top suddenly sunk into the ground.

Boom!

Ice smoke spread across the space in the garden, barring the vision of both Richard and Smith.

Klaus casually moved around in the place, and before long, the smoke died down, with both Richard and Smith incapacitated, the pond at the center of the garden was also frozen solid.

They were currently unable to use their elements, and their feet were frozen to the ground.

Being the son of a mayor, Klaus had access to different collections of techniques, what he used against the duo was like a sealing technique. It sealed their essences inside their bodies, making it impossible for them to use any elements for some time.

“I initially planned to kill you, but you have a more important use.” Klaus said while standing in front of Smith.

After saying that, he walked to where Richard was frozen, “You on the other hand are very useless, but killing you now is no fun.”

Richard looked at him with hateful eyes, but said confidently, “You can’t kill me, my father is an Overlord Plane expert. You can’t afford to offend someone like him.”

“Haha, you think you can threaten me with that? I’ll kill you if I want to, even if your father was the emperor.” Klaus laughed it off but didn’t kill him yet.

He walked back to where Smith was standing, “Now, tell me, where is the mayor’s treasury?”
