Chapter 563: A Teammate That Can’t Be Disliked





 

As they advanced, skeleton warriors filled their sight in all directions . It seemed like the dark world was entirely made up of them .

“Ouch! My stomach hurts! I may have eaten something bad, I can’t fight anymore!”

Suddenly, Ayrin who was rushing at the front shouted and squatted down while holding his tummy .

“What!?”

Stingham almost fainted .

“Ayrin, you are just like Grandmaster Screwface, huh!? You’re the one who said to stay back and block the skeleton army, yet now you say you got a stomach ache and can’t fight!” He shouted, “Blame yourself for eating anything you see . You even ate a fat worm . It’d be strange if you didn’t get sick . ”

“I’m feeling dizzy . My injuries may not have healed yet, I also can’t fight . ” Rinloran spoke . Then, a wave of pale green arcane energy spread out from his feet . The muddy ground beneath him suddenly became a patch of soft grass . He sat down .

“What!? Why would you feel dizzy all of a sudden!?” Stingham almost went mad .

“We also can’t . . . . . . ” Shanna and the Chinyu arcane masters seemed a little hesitant .

“Don’t tell me you also got some problems and can’t fight anymore?” Stingham looked at Shanna and the others with unbelievable eyes .

“It seems our arcane skills backfired and we received a backlash . We can’t move now . ” Shanna bit her lips and quickly explained . Then, she and the Chinyu arcane masters also sat down .

“How can this be? Are these skeleton warriors carrying the Evil Dragon’s curse?” Stingham screamed in fear .

Charlotte was the next to try and find a reason to sit out . “I . . . . . . I feel something wrong with me . I may really be cursed . ” She too sat down .

“I don’t feel anything wrong! How can this be?” Stingham cried out to Ferguillo, “Ferguillo, do you feel anything?”

“No . ” Ferguillo shook his head .

Stingham let out a relieved sigh .





“But I also can’t fight . ” Ferguillo added as he sat down .

Stingham was petrified, “WHY!?”

“My injury’s acting up . . . . . . it seems I was hurt by that Locust Emperor . Its arcane power is very strange . I didn’t feel anything before, but it’s acting up now . ” Ferguillo plainly spoke .

“ . . . . . . ”

Ayrin and Rinloran almost toppled down .

Ferguillo, how bad are you at lying? Can’t you find a better excuse?

You can even claim your injury from the Locust Emperor is only acting up now?

“I also can’t seem to fight . ”

At that moment, Jean Camus, who was finishing off the approaching skeleton warriors, also suddenly spoke, “I need to stop now . ”

“Even you? Why?” Stingham became teary-faced .

“Can’t fight means can’t fight, what’s with the why?” Jean Camus’s expression was a little stiff .

“There must be a reason you can’t fight, right?” Stingham shouted .

“Then . . . . . . I was also hurt by the Locust Emperor, it’s only acting up now . ” Jean Camus quickly spoke and then sat down .

“ . . . . . . ” Everyone was speechless .

Is it harder for geniuses like Jean Camus and Ferguillo to find a good excuse than defeating a powerful foe?

Stingham’s tears had already dried up . He turned his pleading gaze towards Merlin and Mody .

Merlin’s body let out a unique metal humming sound and emitted smoke . Then, it stopped moving .

“Merlin’s acting is the best!” Ayrin and Rinloran instantly gave Merlin the highest score in their minds .





“Don’t look at me . I’m your target of protection . After using this domain, I have no arcane particles left . You need to protect me . ” Mody smiled at Stingham and sat down .

Stingham’s face twisted .

“Stingham, stop them! We will get killed otherwise! Help us!” Ayrin exaggeratedly shouted .

“Don’t do this to me! How can I alone save all of you!?” Stingham desperately yelled . He was on his wit’s end . He desperately swung his Green Dragon Spear and fought against the skeleton warriors who were swarming them from all around .

“Success!”

Ayrin was elated and secretly made a victory hand sign towards Rinloran .

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Several impact sounds rang out .


Not a single skeleton warrior was completely destroyed .

Instead, Stingham suffered a few hits . Some skeletons were slammed away by his spear, and others by his own body .

Ayrin, Rinloran and the others were speechless .

Isn’t this standard too humiliating?

Those skeleton warriors were at most at the level of a three-gate arcane master in close range combat . They could not even use any arcane skills . Before Stingham participated in the national tournament to represent the Holy Dawn Academy, finishing off a few opponents of this level was a piece of cake .

Even Meraly, who was relatively weak compared to the others, could instantly finish off a few skeleton warriors . However, Stingham could not even do that .

Isn’t this close range combat technique too poor?

He never improved in close range combat ever since the national tournament?

Or is he perhaps unable to perform normally in such a situation?

If not for the Lover’s Corpse, wouldn’t Stingham be killed by those skeleton warriors?





“Watch out, Stingham! They’re coming from the side, they’re almost on Ferguillo!”

“Stingham, don’t use Water Dragon . It will exhaust your arcane particles!”

Ayrin shouted out advice continuously .

“Stingham, using your Green Dragon Spear to smack them like a stick is wasting too much strength . You can only break a few bones and can’t really cause any damage . It’s useless to break a few bones . You must incapacitate them . The most conservative method is to aim properly and stab through their spine . The best spot is the lower back area . You can break them in half by stabbing through there . ”

“Stingham, for close range combat, you must grasp your surroundings . You need to differentiate the priorities by checking which skeletons are the most threatening to us!”

“Control the strength you exert! Maintain it at a level that will just about break their bones! Every bit of extra energy you use is wasted stamina . Also, don’t jump around and don’t do unnecessary actions . Make use of your spear’s reach . That will save your stamina and lengthen the time you can fight . ”

“The key to using a spear is to have your heart, hand and spear tip aligned . That will give you accurate and lightning-fast stabs!”

“Don’t shake your body, your aim will be off!”

Everyone began giving pointers to Stingham .

It could not be refuted that Stingham had been completely relying on his talent, the high Green Dragon bloodline’s natural power and his intimacy with arcane power to fight .

His foundation was even worse than Holy Dawn Academy team’s reserve members .

“I can’t stop them alone! You all better recover soon!” Stingham desperately yelled as he listened to everyone’s advice .

Bam! Bam! Bam!

He was still occasionally hit by the skeleton warriors .

“Idiot! You already forget what I said! When the enemy isn’t a threat, don’t take evasive measures . Your spear is longer than their arms . Why are you retreating!? You’re also shaking when stepping back, you can’t stab precisely like that!”

“I told you to control your strength . You’re still using too much force! You want to exhaust yourself quickly and let us die!”

“Don’t keep turning around to look! Use your senses . When taking on enemies on this level, you can feel which will reach first from just the vibration in the air . ”

“Idiot! Can you be more efficient? Don’t tense your muscles! Look at your moves, even pigs move more elegantly than you!”

Rinloran’s merciless scolding kept coming out like a steady stream .

“There are too many! Their spines are so thin . . . . . . ” Stingham argued .

How humiliating . . . . . .

If Chris was here, even if she stood still and those spines were as thin as a single strand of noodle, she would easily stab through them all .

The way he uses his spear is really worse than a bear holding a spear . . . . . .

And he’s really an idiot . He even believed those excuses that were clearly fake .

But such a lazy idiot who’s so poor at close range combat . . . . . . is desperately fighting for us . He really is holding back on his Water Dragon which is his favorite . He’s really trying to be careful of the amount of force he exerts, trying his best to stab the spines of the skeleton warriors . . . . . .

Such a guy . . . . . . if we don’t die in this battle, if we can survive . . . . . . He will probably continue being our teammate, right?

Rinloran continued scolding .

However, his ice cold expression revealed a rare warmth .

Great improvement!

Looks like forcing him to fight is a really effective training method!

Ayrin’s eyes sparkled .

Stingham missed every strike at the start, but he was able to hit the skeletons’ spines now .

It seems there won’t be danger for a while without helping him .

Why don’t I take a nap first?

“Stingham, I’m feeling sick, I can’t hold on . ” Ayrin scratched his head, laid down and closed his eyes to sleep .

“Why aren’t you getting better? Don’t collapse!” Stingham’s tears flowed non-stop!
