Chapter 1145: Mysterious Person

"Enemy!" Andreas' shout alerted everyone.

The spirit grandmaster hurriedly backed off, taking this chance to get away from Andreas. He was fortunate enough to survive because Andreas was distracted.

But his luck ran out the moment he fought Tristan.

While it was true that Tristan was Noel's student, his lack of experience was causing him to have a delayed reaction.

Even Sandra, who was considered weaker than him, reacted fast enough to twist her body in the direction of the incoming person.

Meanwhile, Tristan was a little bit too focused on the spirit grandmaster.

His inexperience confused him as to why Andreas let this spirit grandmaster go. Since Andreas didn't have any intention to kill this spear grandmaster, Tristan ended up activating the meteor rune on the car and shooting it at the grandmaster.

'Eh?' The spear grandmaster widened his eyes in shock when he found the giant lump of energy that was about to hit him. "No—*Boom!*"

The Meteor Rune exploded, blasting the heavily injured spear grandmaster and ultimately killing him.

It could be said that his death was indirectly caused by Tristan's inexperience. If he were an expert, he would s.h.i.+ft his focus to the greater threat.

"Tristan. s.h.i.+eld in full power!" Felicia suddenly shouted as she returned to the car.

"!!!" Tristan was startled. He didn't know where the attacker was, but he still followed Felicia's instruction by raising the output of the barrier to the maximum.

In addition, Felicia had also reached the car and activated her own Spiritual Barrier Rune.

There was a man floating in the air, looking down on them as if they were ants.

When he waved his right hand, a wave of spiritual energy suddenly hit the barrier, as if there were a ma.s.sive beast that just hit them with powerful momentum.

Bam!

The spiritual barriers from both the car and Felicia cracked in an instant.

Even Felicia had to use a bit of her spiritual energy to keep the car in place. If it flipped over, that would be the end of them.

'Tsk. What is going on? How strong is this person?' Felicia gritted her teeth. 'To think that he managed to cause such heavy damage to two spiritual barrier runes that are going at full force. Even a superior demon can't do something like this…'

Sandra was holding several rune cards, not knowing which one she should use. This person was much stronger than the seven mysterious attackers.

However, while the others were defending, there was only one person who dared to approach this mysterious person. He was none other than Andreas.

"Soul Severing Strike." He unleashed all his power in a single attack.

The mysterious person glanced at him as if he had been following him the whole time. When Andreas unleashed his attack, this person also released another wave of energy.

"!!!" Andreas widened his eyes because this energy was actually close to the level of his grandfather. 'What is this…'

It felt like his world vibrated for a second. Before he realized it, his stomach had been hit by this energy as his body was launched to the ground.

Bam!

The momentum was so huge that the crash created a 30-meter radius crater.

"Gah!" Andreas spat a mouthful of blood.

The mysterious person was more quiet than Yesley. He simply glared at Andreas as if he were telling him he was like an ant. No matter how much he struggled, he wouldn't be able to do anything.

Andreas, on the other hand, could see that ridiculous soul of his. Andreas couldn't help but smirk. "Do you think that you are powerful? A mere demon dares to look down on us."

Suddenly, a sword mark appeared on the guy's hand. It was small, and the bleeding wasn't that severe.

However, it was enough to shock the mysterious guy. He didn't expect that a spirit grandmaster would be able to harm him. Even Anna had no choice but to escape.

What he didn't realize was that Andreas' power was the soul itself. From the first time he cast his gaze on him, Andreas already knew what was happening inside his body. He used it to his advantage, putting close to no energy into his defense.

This way, he was able to hit the guy's hand. And that attack was his Soul Severing Strike.

"!!!" The guy widened his eyes when he lost the sensation of his hand. 'What? I can't feel my left hand. No. I can't even move it anymore.'

That was right. Andreas shredded the left hand of his soul, meaning that even if his physical body still had that hand, he couldn't use it anymore. This was the same technique he used to defeat the demons during the siege.

Andreas took a deep breath. It didn't seem that he could win against this guy, but if they could somehow injure him enough, they should be able to escape.

However, the mysterious guy also noticed this. He didn't plan to make the same mistake as Yesley. No matter what, he needed to keep them in this one place. He couldn't underestimate them because they had just crushed three spirit grandmasters and four spirit masters.

"!!!" Andreas suddenly felt a presence coming from his side. Before he realized it, the mysterious guy in the sky had already disappeared. 'Ah. This… it might be bad.'

The mysterious guy kicked Andreas in the head, launching him far from the car. This way, he could kill Andreas first.

"Andreas!" Felicia panicked and shot two meteors. Sandra and Tristan also threw the Meteor card.

"Tsk." The mysterious guy waved his other hand, sending powerful energy to hit all those energy b.a.l.l.s.

Boom!

A series of explosions occurred. Even the mysterious guy had to take it seriously due to the number, just like when he failed to crush two Spiritual Barrier Runes.

In addition, Andreas took this opportunity to get away from him.

His body bounced several times on the ground, but his animal instinct immediately took over. He landed on all fours while putting his sword in his mouth.

After that, he started running like a real wolf. He might even be faster running this way compared to when he ran like a human.

In just an instant, he created more than a 200-meter gap between them.

"!!!" The guy widened his eyes in shock. 'What is that speed? That's not a speed a grandmaster can have… It's even faster than Anna Stargaze's lightning speed.'

This guy was forced to choose whether to chase after Andreas or kill Tristan and the others. On the one hand, if he chased after Andreas, he could kill him first and avoid leaking information. On the other hand, Tristan was his original objective. Even then, killing him wouldn't be that easy either.

The spiritual barriers were definitely going to stop him multiple times. By the time he killed them, Andreas might have reached the duke and told him about this. It would be troublesome if the Duke got involved. His fate wouldn't be any different than Yesley's.

To think that kicking him away was a mistake. He thought he was going to separate them to kill them easier, but he miscalculated Andreas' speed.

The guy sent his energy toward the car.

"Defense!" Felicia shouted.

Two spiritual barriers appeared and blocked it again, but this time, the attack was slightly more powerful. Even if it failed to destroy the two barriers, Felicia didn't have any leeway to use her spiritual energy to keep the car in place anymore.

As a result, the car flipped over.

"Aggghhh!" Tristan gritted his teeth. He was holding a few rune cards, ready to use them out of desperation.

Even Felicia was ready to use everything in order to stop him.

However, that attack was just a distraction. Now that they couldn't do anything, the mysterious guy chased after Andreas, not allowing him to inform the duke.

"Kh." Tristan climbed out of the car. "Felicia…"

"Are you alright? We need to chase after him, or Andreas will die." Felicia pointed in the direction Andreas was going.

"So we are now separated… What is that guy? How can he be so strong?" Tristan bit his lips.

"I don't know. Anyway, we have to hurry." Felicia helped him flip the car once more.

"No. We shouldn't chase after him." Tristan shook his head.

"What are you talking about? Andreas is going to die if we leave him alone."

"No, trust me. I still remember what my teacher said whenever we encounter someone we can't beat."
