“What?!” Rexion and his comrades were shocked to find that Theo’s stick was able to crack Rexion’s defense.

However, seeing that their enemies had left and Theo boldly claimed that he would be coming after them, there was no way they would be so foolish as to accept that fact and follow Theo’s arrangement.

The other two seemed to have different types of spirits. The first one was similar to Rexion, but his weapon was a sword. The second one had his body covered with yellow-colored lightning.

The most problematic one would be the person with lightning power, since it might increase his speed. And the moment he motioned away as though he was about to leave, Theo hit Rexion from the side, launching him toward this guy.

“Wha—!” The guy was a step too late to avoid Rexion. While it was true that his body would turn into lightning, he couldn’t do it because of Rexion’s spirit. The only reason Ansthor could let Theo’s body pass through was because he didn’t have a spirit back then.

As a result, Rexion crashed into him. The sword user hurriedly jumped away to gain as much distance as possible. He even shouted, “Stop him!”

The soldiers who heard him hurriedly changed their directions and moved in Theo’s way, preventing him from chasing after the sword user.

Unfortunately for them, Theo used not only the spirit, but also the demon.

Toon Demon’s First Authority, Toon World.

All of a sudden, dozens of seat belts emerged from the ground as a roller coaster made its appearance. They were strapped tightly to the roller coaster as it started speeding up toward the sword user.

“Are you kidding me?” The guy poured a lot of essence into his sword before swinging downward.

The roller coaster was split into two. The momentum caused the soldiers to slide on the ground and ended up breaking their necks.

On the other hand, to slash the roller coaster, the sword user had to stop for a bit, giving Theo precious time to catch up to him.

Theo slammed him with the stick from above. The sword user remembered how the stick almost crushed Rexion, so he tried to direct the power to the side, only to find it hard to do.

The stick ended up knocking the sword to the ground and creating a small crater. If this was a normal sword instead of a spirit, it would have been shattered.

Theo spun his body and kicked the guy’s waist. As if predicting Theo’s movement, the guy managed to slide his sword out of the suppression and stick it in the kick’s path. If Theo continued, he would end up cutting his own foot.

But the moment the foot hit the sword, it disappeared.

“Afterimage? No, Illusion!” He hurriedly turned back to Theo, finding the stick coming from the other side. He tried to swing to the side, but he abruptly felt as if something was pressuring him from above. That pressure caused his movement to become sluggish, resulting in him being too late to block the stick.

The stick hit him hard on the ribs, cracking two of them. The force blasted him toward Rexion and the lightning type user.

They had just recovered from the crash, but Theo had sent the third person along with a present.

Yes. Theo actually stuck a talisman on the sword user’s body in that hit. The talisman flared up and engulfed him in fire.

“Aaaahhhh!” The sword user screamed in pain as he was being burned alive. Rexion put his shield on the front to receive this guy without catching fire. Meanwhile, the lightning spirit user charged his power and blasted it at the sword user.

The spirit actually overwhelmed the fire and its spark caused the fire to get blown away as though it were just a candle. It only took one second to put down the fire, but that one second was enough for Theo to reach them.

“Kh!” Rexion used his other hand to slam Theo, but the latter actually stopped right before them and placed his hand on the ground.

The soil began to crack as a giant umbrella came out of the ground. A few ropes from the tips of the umbrella caught soldiers before the umbrella began to spin. In the theme park, they would be happy to feel the centrifugal force until it stopped, but this one actually had a thin rope.

The rope ended up snapping once they reached the speed limit, launching the soldiers in all directions. Each of them crashed into three to five people each, either killing them or knocking them out.

Even though Theo had to fight three Spirit Users, he actually had enough time to kill a lot of soldiers.

There was also one thing that he could feel from them. Jeff was much stronger than them. He didn’t know why, but the steel roots were much more troublesome. It made him wonder if these guys actually got another ability from the madness like Jeff.

“Aaaaahhhh!” The sword user roared as a chain formed on the back of his sword before creating a sword similar to it. It seemed that he was getting into it. Though, Theo thought this guy should have done it before he broke his ribs,

Meanwhile, the lightning user shot out a spark that shone so brightly that it even forced Theo to close his eyes. Theo realized that this was the ability he received after embracing the madness.

However, Rexion actually didn’t show any changes. It was then that Theo noticed the fact that both his shield and warhammer were the power that reflected both the spirit and the madness.

Still, as pissed as he was, Theo charged straight at the lightning.

The lightning user thought Theo was a fool, considering he didn’t dodge his lightning even though he couldn’t see anything. But right before the lightning touched Theo, it suddenly curved down, barely missing Theo.

“Huh?!” The lightning user was dumbfounded. What kind of sorcery did Theo use to deflect his power?

“Watch out. He has a power that can pressure you from above… It struck me earlier. The sword user warned him, believing the same power had been used to deflect the lightning.

“Is that also the reason why his downward strike is so heavy while the sideways strike is as heavy?” Rexion finally understood the power that cracked his shield.

Since the only thing he needed was to watch out for that one swing, Rexion stepped forth, planning to stop Theo. “I don’t think it’s possible for me to stop him by myself. Although we have to fall for his plan, we have no choice but to stop him here.”

The other two exchanged looks and nodded in agreement.

If he had his scythe, this would be extremely easy. After all, he could cut down a lot of people around him and use their souls to overwhelm these three. But the stick? He had been striking down all the people around him since he couldn’t reach his enemies without doing it, which ended up slowing him down.

He had to agree with the comment that said the author loved to mess with him.

While raising his stick above his head, Theo leaped into the air as if he were trying to hammer Rexion.

After knowing his ability, Rexion waited for the moment where Theo couldn’t change his direction anymore before jumping backward, avoiding his strike. After that, he could definitely launch a counterattack, or so he thought.

The moment Theo hit the ground, the impact turned the area into a crater, causing Rexion to start falling for a meter.

Meanwhile, Theo used that strike to propel himself into the air once again to reach Rexion.

‘What? He destroyed the ground to give him the advantage of high ground again. And I can’t move away.’ Rexion panicked, but it was useless.

The sword user and the lightning user wanted to help him, but if they made a move, Theo would deflect their power below, which ultimately hit Rexion.

In the end, Rexion had no choice but to block the stick with his shield again.

Bam!

The crater became a bit deeper, but it seemed that Rexion managed to stop it. But when the dust settled, all of them could see that the top part of the shield had been shattered.

“What?!” Rexion gasped. Even Theo was quite surprised by this phenomenon. If the shield was the spirit, how could it shatter? Would his spirit be destroyed as well if he used it recklessly?

He thought the crack would be the extent of the damage, thinking about the injured spirit. But it seemed that there was a chance that the spirit would completely die. It just created an even more terrifying imagination in his mind.

Unfortunately, he didn’t have the time to consider all that.

Even Rexion started trembling after taking the full brunt of his attack. If he unleashed one more attack, he would definitely go down.

Theo wasn’t the only one to realize it. That was why the sword user leaped from the side and waved both swords.

Unfortunately for him, Theo skillfully blocked both swords. There was no fluctuation of essence or anything, which made it even more surprising when Theo felt pain coming from his right cheek and left shoulder.

“!!!” Theo was shocked to find himself injured. He didn’t know the sword’s power, but it was clear that it could do an invisible attack.

At the same time, the lightning user created another flash that blinded the three of them. Theo avoided it with a single leap, but the sword user actually extended both of his swords.

The lightning hit one and ran through the chain before getting released from the other one. The sword user actually changed the course of the lightning with his sword.

Theo had to avoid this lightning by using his senses alone, but it wasn’t that much of a problem, except for the fact that when he was about to dodge, Rexion turned out to be coming from the right side.

“!!!” Theo was startled to find Rexion sacrificing himself to make sure this attack landed on Theo. In fact, he might be confident in his defense that the lightning wouldn’t be enough to harm him.

Theo clicked his tongue and decided to stop.

Boom!

The lightning hit him and burst out, kicking the dust into the air.

The moment the area was cleared up, they found Rexion with his shield shattered in half. The broken part fell to the ground, making people realize that the shield wouldn’t be able to hold on any longer.

Even Rexion’s left hand which held the shield was hanging down as if he couldn’t move it anymore.

However, Theo wasn’t that much better either. He was still holding his staff with his right hand, but his left hand was in the same condition as Rexion’s hand. His right arm was bleeding profusely.

“I have taken down his left hand.” Rexion smirked as he continued forward. “I will be coming from the left. You guys stop his right hand, and we will win werethis!”

Rexion swung his warhammer while the sword user approached Theo from the other side. The lightning user was waiting for a gap to shoot his lightning.

It was perfect coordination to take down Theo. If Theo used his right hand to stop the warhammer, he would expose the other side to the sword user.

But this was precisely what Theo had been waiting for. When the warhammer was about to reach him, Theo’s left hand suddenly moved again.

“Rexion!” The lightning user shouted his name.

It looked like Theo was using the trick he used to defeat the wire user earlier, but there was something different from this. Theo had actually sacrificed his left hand.

The reason he could move his left arm again was because there were strings made of essence attached to it. Without anyone realizing it, the clown had appeared behind Theo, controlling his body with strings as if he was a marionette.

Theo grabbed the warhammer and used gravity to push it down before spinning his body and striking Rexion with the stick.

“What the—” Rexion was dumbfounded, but that was the last moment he could see something as the stick crushed his head and body until it didn’t look like a person anymore.

“How many times do I have to tell you? You’re not worthy.”
