Versatile System Online-Chapter 201 A Team Stronger Than Before (Part 2)

"What the…" Sirius blurted in shock as he saw Ray overwhelm the burly man with his continuous onslaught of attacks.

Looking closely, Sirius realized that it wasn't only the attacks but a rather tangible pressure released by Ray that overwhelmed the man.

"Is that because of the dragon's phantom behind him?" Sirius thought.

Putting the thought at the back of his head, Sirius felt his blood boil as the urge to attack got the better of him and he kicked the ground and lunged at the man as he started attacking as well.

With both of them attacking at once, the duo fought as if they were trained to do so. When Sirius slashed, Ray backed up for a second only to attack once Sirius's attack hit the man.

With that, the duo constantly attacked the man without giving him a chance to retaliate. While they both fought the man, their team members had almost finished the rest of the enemies when an unusual change occurred.

The two enemies that they had knocked down before opened their eyes as yellowish bolts of lightning arced around their bodies.

"Back up everyone, soothing wrong," Emma shouted as she sensed an unusual change in their aura.

"What happened? Weren't they down for good?" Elina landed besides Emma as she asked. Getting no reply, she turned to look at Emma, only to find her face devoid of color as her eyes had widened in shock.

"What happened Emma?" Elina moved as she held her arms and gave her a vigorous shake. Pulling her out of her stupor, Elina asked again, "What the f*ck happened?"

"They were hiding their strength all along. They are in the starting tiers of Calamity Realm," Emma answered, her face still pale from the fear while her body trembled slightly.

"Don't worry. We just have to delay the fight and guessing from how they were knocked out earlier, I would say that they recently evolved into the Calamity Realm and aren't accustomed to their power. Also, they are lesser in number and they can't even use magic. This way, we could drag the battle by maintaining our distance from them," Elina spoke, a whole plan forming in her mind as she shouted loudly, "Everyone, gather around,"

Calling everyone, Elina explained the whole plan as the group got back into formation.

"Shall we start?" Tim turned as he asked.

"What are you waiting for? For them to attack? If not, then start attacking, you are the tank. Not us," Elina reprimanded her brother as she raised her hands and cast a myriad of curses.

As she did, her skin changed as various blackish runes covered her skin. With a shift in her aura, her eyes turned pitch black as he looked ahead and nodded.

Seeing her sister change this much, Tim nodded and turned around. Lifting his shield in the air, he activated his ability as a golden sheen covered his body.

Snorting slightly, he rubbed his feet against the ground. Crouching slightly, he stomped the ground and ran towards the two experts in front of him.

"Hyaaaa!!!" He shouted as this time, he used his whole power and tried to ram into the enemies.

Sadly for Tim, the ones in front of him weren't fools as they refused to fall for the same thing twice and dodged his attack. However, just as they dodged, attacks rained down on them.

After all, they had focused their attention on Tim and forgot to consider the rest of the time and this was exactly what Elina planned to do.

By using Tim's muscular figure and overwhelming attacking style, she caught the attention of the enemies while the rest of them attacked while the two focused on Tim.

With Kid and Aella being the long-ranged attackers, Emma and Noah focused on supporting them while Aliya played her role as the healer. As for Elina, she became the lone wolf as she not only buffed herself but also used her curses to debuff the enemies.

With a dagger in each hand, Elina grinned as she disappeared from her position. Appearing behind the enemy, she slashed her dagger as she disappeared again and appeared back inside the formation.

As for her daggers, they were imbued with blackish energy, and every time she attacked, the curses were transferred upon the enemy through her daggers.

On the other hand, Aella worked alongside Kid as they both fired their attacks at the enemy. With Kid throwing multiple ice shards while Aliya fired her arrows, they confused the enemy and allowed Noah, Emma, and Tim to attack.

Tim lifted his shield in the air as a spear detached from it while the shield got smaller to the point that he was able to lift it with a single hand. Then, with the shield in one hand and the spear in the other, Tim adopted a different attack style and started attacking.

Emma brought out a scimitar from her spatial storage and imbued it with her aura. As she did, the scimitar glowed a blueish hue as the veins upon it turned blue.

On the other hand, Noah used his spirit energy as he controlled the Spirit Needles and cast restricting formation while also sparing a few to attack. With this, the three of them attacked the enemies while the enemies defended themselves.

"Something's wrong," Stopping with her consistent attacks, Elina muttered as she felt her curses weakening.

Turning around, she looked at the others as she saw everyone tiring out bit by bit. Seeing this, she glanced at the enemies and saw one of the fallen figures slightly move.

"So it's this one," She muttered as she kicked the ground and appeared besides the fallen figure. Raising her dagger, a black line streaked.

"Swooosh," Expecting to see blood spurt in the surroundings, Elina looked down and noticed that she hit the air.

"F*ck," She cursed as she realize that she had been fooled.

Turning around, she saw the previously fallen figure standing a few feet away from her.

"Keke" the figure giggled as strings appeared all around its body, "Your mistake for underestimating us," he eerily said as he disappeared from his position and appeared in the air. Then disappearing again, the figure appeared in different positions all around the place.

"Just what the hell is he trying to do?" Elina thought as she raised her hand to cast some curses.

"Spurtt," Blood spilled as Elina felt a stinging pain in her hand. Bringing her hand down, she looked at it and saw her index finger missing. ƒ𝘳ee𝔀e𝚋n૦𝐯el.c𝗼𝓂

Then looking up, she saw small drops of blood dripping down from an invisible thin thread, "What the.." She muttered as she realized the man's strategy.

"Aliya! Heal," she shouted as she asked Aliya to heal her finger so the blood could stop flowing.

Then, looking around; she called Emma, "Emma, use your aura sense. There are thin threads spread around the battlefield. The threads are very sharp," She shouted and closed her eyes.

Concentrating deeply, a blackish most condensed around her body as rows and rows of curses floated in front of her. Her hair floated in the air as different runes appeared on her face.

"Heed my call, The King Of Curses, and appear to finish those who defy your presence," She chanted as her body started to float in the air. As it did, everything around her was consumed by the darkness being released by her body.

"Elina, what the hell are you doing," Seeing her, Tim shouted.

However, she ignored her as two reddish eyes opened behind her, "I accept you. You have summoned me and I heed your call. I accept you as my master," As the voice sounded, a black cat appeared on her shoulder.

Opening her eyes, Elina glanced at the cat on her shoulder and ordered, "Curse the man spreading those threads. I don't care what you do, just kill that man,"

"Meowww" The cat meowed as it lifted its paw and swiped. As it did, a string of curses appeared around the man and trapped him.

After that, the cat turned into most and seeped within Elina as the tattoo of a cat was formed on her wrist.

"Guess that's the best it could do," She muttered and raised her hands as the daggers reappeared in her hands. Infusing the daggers with her curse,

[Curse Of Deterioration: Disintegrate],

She shouted and threw her daggers as her daggers hit the man. Glowing a black light, the curses were activated as a blackish hue spread to the man's skin.

"Arghhhh!!" The man shouted in agony as the man's purplish skin started deteriorating. As for how? The curse disintegrated the very cells of the man's body, causing immense pain and dealing severe damage to the man.

As she cast the curse, Elina staggered as she felt her vision blur due to the immense amount of mana she consumed while casting her cursed spell.

"Don't worry Elina, we have got it," Aliya appeared besides her as she touched the tip of her staff on her forehead and cast a combination spell.

[Goddess's Embrace: Rejuvenating heal] 𝒇𝒓eewe𝒃𝑛𝒐𝘃𝒆𝚕.co𝘮

As she did, a light flashed by as not only did Elina's finger started to heal but her mana also recovered slowly. Though, she was out of the battle for the time being while the enemy was killed thanks to her.
