My Multisystem In Isekai-Chapter 137 Overwhelming
Gabby understood the mindset of the vultures since he would have done the same had he been in their position. After all, the vultures comprised of a group of students who were not very powerful but thought themselves to be so smart that they really believed they could sneak everything away from under the noses of everyone else taking part in the battle. Gabby felt that they were too naive but he didn't point out the flaw in their plan.
They had no strength to protect the cards at all. Even if they did manage to get their hands on the cards, they would be hunted by the entire alliance. Only those who had the strength to fight against everyone else had the chance to actually escape with the spoils of the battle.
As the bystanders continued to wait for a chance, the members who were busy fighting the trio started to fall one after another. Even the total of three hundred and fifty members of the alliance had been unable to take down a trio of masked men. Instead they had suffered a crushing defeat at their hands.
Seeing the situation was headed towards the disaster that Gabby had predicted earlier, the bystanders started to move towards Zavier at a brisk pace in order to join the battle as soon as possible.
Even when Gabby and the other bystanders joined together to launch the final assault on the trio who must have been exhausted by then, the trio were hardly affected.
The reason behind that was that the alliance members had really overestimated their strength compared to Zavier and his clones.
The elite members of the alliance had never even imagined that the gap between their strength and that of the masked men was large enough to make them fall into despair.
Zavier was still fighting as if he had been fighting the grassroots of the team earlier. The students were still being flung around all over the battlefield. Bodies continued to pile up on top of each other holding broken weapons.
The physical weapons being wielded by the students all broke as soon as they countered the weapons made of blood being wielded by the trio. There were a large number of chipped and cracked weapons lying about as they had all been brought to the brink of shattering by a single blow launched by Zavier and his clones. Neither weapons nor the skills of the so called geniuses were enough to cause harm to Zavier.
The crowd that Zavier had diminished with a lot of effort was now gathering up all over again and he found himself knee deep in battle without a second to rest. Still there was nothing that Zavier would rather be doing at this time. He was thoroughly enjoying himself as he fought against the prodigies from all over the empire and crushed them.
Meanwhile, the clone with the Mesmer system that had previously had a huge group of his own to fight against was now almost standing alone. The rest of his attackers were all lying face down on the ground unconscious of everything happening around them. The only one who were still standing were Zavier's clone with the necromancer system who had been accompanying the girls in his place, Shiranui and Kacie who were barely holding on despite the barrage of illusions being thrown at them by the clone.
They wanted to get rid of the illusionist but he had managed to keep them immobilized for so long without batting a sweat. Even if he did find it difficult, the mask on his face hid away any such indications.
Kacie and Shiranui were unaware of the reason that the masked man was not knocking them unconscious like the others. Of course they didn't know that the clone had received strict instructions that it could not physically harm them no matter what. Therefore it had been trying to incapacitate them with the illusions that were constantly losing their effect.
The clone that the girls perceived to be the original Zavier was bitterly fighting against the masked man as if they had real enmity against each other. But Zavier couldn't help but feel funny and uncomfortable at the same time because he was currently operating in shared mode and each of their feelings and thoughts were being processed through his consciousness. It felt to him as if he was using his right fist to hit the left side of his own face.
He was fighting against himself and felt extremely awkward doing so as well. Similar to him, Kacie and Shiranui were feeling the same awkwardness as they were unable to truly fight the illusionist. This was the first time that they had come across such a difficult opponent.
Mesmer was a profession that was considered very rare even in this magical world. There weren't many true illusionists in the world but those who called themselves Mesmers were truly difficult to beat in battle. They had a plethora of different skills that could confuse the senses, mind and even the soul of the opponent.
Even Shiranui who had a wealth of experience when it came to real life battles was unable to think of a strategy to stray from the deadlock. While they were unable to move due to the illusions, the masked man was unable to beat them down due to Zavier who was constantly fighting back in order to keep them safe. Kacie had known that Zavier was somewhat good at illusions as well but she had never expected that he was so good that he was able to resist the illusions of the masked man to such a degree.
Zavier continued to fight against himself in order to continue with the deadlock between the masked man and their group. On the other hand, he was doing it so no one would be able to doubt that he had some relation to the three masked men.
Shiranui and Kacie were soon able to break through the illusions with some difficulty and started to fight back against the masked man as well. But no matter how hard they tried to hit him it was as if they were using their fists to hit a water body.
Their strength became useless once the opponent operated his spiritual strength to confuse their senses. Sometimes they missed the mark slightly but sometimes their attacks were flung far off into the distance.
But the ceaseless attacks were quite helpful in holding the masked man at bay even if it wasn't strong enough to hurt the masked man.
The main highlight of the battle was none other than the combination of the Magus System clone and Zavier. They were practically unstoppable with the vast array of skills and spells at their disposal. f𝗿e𝙚𝘸e𝐛𝚗𝐨𝙫𝚎𝙡.c𝒐𝐦
No one was able to lay a hand on them when they began to operate together. Their perfect synergy with each other ensured that they had almost no blind spots that the enemies were able to exploit. Zavier used his blood blade to both attack and defend against all the skills that were being thrown at them while the clone with the Magus system continued to attack with the various skills at its disposal.
Their movements were in so much sync that they were able to attack and defend for each other without even a signal. This was something that terrified the alliance members as they were unable to understand the method through which the two masked men were communicating with each other.
Zavier was at ease fighting against the alliance as his blood blade skill was the perfect counter for almost every kind of skill there was. Magic could be converted into various different attributes but those attributes had the ability to cancel each other out or even increase the power of an attribute by reinforcing it further. For example, Dahila's ice magic had found its antithesis in the form of the sound attribute that Gabby was proficient in. Similarly, the wind magic could be used to give more spread and strength to the fire magic, and lightning magic was best used with water based magic spells. Some mages were proficient with only one kind of magic skills like Dahila had only ice attribute skills while others were able to use multiple attributes at once.
Still, none of the attributes were able to take down the blood blade skill that Zavier was wielding. While on the contrary, blood attribute was able to restrict all kinds of magic skills alone without being affected. It also reinforced Zavier's physical strength beyond the range that was considered normal. Therefore, Zavier was able to penetrate all kinds of defenses with just his one skill.
Zavier was responsible for breaking down the defenses while the clone continued to cast offensive magic to take down the opposing students by exploiting the holes in their defenses.
The alliance was crestfallen after seeing that they were on the verge of defeat despite their overwhelming advantage in terms of numbers. They were falling deeper and deeper into the abyss of despair and helplessness with not a single ray of hope that could give them courage to continue fighting against such a terrifying enemy.
These participants started to retreat slowly in order to avoid suffering the same fate as their previous comrades and stood beside some of the participants who had not taken part in the war at all. fr𝚎e𝙬𝚎𝚋𝚗૦ν𝚎𝒍.c૦m
One of those who had yet to take part in the battle was the woman that Zavier was quite intimately familiar with. It was none other than Rebecca who was proficient in strengthening magic that turned her skin into diamond at will which boosted her strength and defense at the same time to an uncanny level.
