System Player: The Greatest Player
Chapter 15: The Resistance
All the thugs ran towards Augustus and attacked him simultaneously.
August responded by turning his sword in all directions and making a fire that pushed all the thugs down.
"Kuh, you fucking crap!" Said one of the fallen thugs.
Augustus then ran to one of the fallen thugs and used the handle of his sword to hit the nape of the thug's neck and knocked him unconscious.
"Damn you!..." The thug who was hit on the nape of his neck immediately lost consciousness and fainted.
August intends to do so to the other thugs, but can't because most of them are awake
The other thugs who had been awake immediately ran towards Augustus to attack him.
"Receive this!" One of the thugs pointed his sword towards Augustus.
Augustus used his sword to block the sword heading towards him from the left, and used his right foot to stoop the thug's right leg up and use the handle of his sword to hit his stomach.
The thug fell on the ground and was unconscious.
"But behind!" Shouted Lina.
A block of wood was pointed at August's head from behind, but he lowered his head and kicked his right leg behind him to make the thugs behind him bounce.
"Thank you." Augustus to Lina.
Several thugs simultaneously attacked Augustus from the front, Augustus then sheathed his katana back into his sheath, and made a horse with his legs to attack.
"Flighting technique number 1, Burn flash." Augustus removed his katana from the sheath, and at a speed that could not be followed by the eyes, he moved in an instant to the back of the thug in front of him.
*Slash
All the thugs behind Augustus did not move, and a few moments later they all fell and fell on the ground.
"What the fuck is that power?!" Said one of the frightened thugs.
The remaining thugs began to hesitate to attack Augustus. August uses that by running into one of the thugs and attacking him with his sword.
*Slash
"Ughh! thugs who were hit by Augustus' attack bounced and were unconscious.
He then continued by attacking the other thugs, and did it repeatedly to make the remaining thugs choose to run away.
"Si-shit! I don't know if the opponent is this strong! everybody run!" Shouted the frightened Thugs.
The remaining thugs chose to surrender and ran away from Augustus. But their leader, who had still not attacked Augustus earlier, remained in place with a grin looking at Augustus.
"My nails.I haven't felt my heart beating like this for a long time.I've expected that you're strong enough." Said the Leader of the Thugs.
The leader of the thugs took out his knife, and formed horses to prepare to attack.
"Alright, let's see how you're going to withstand this attack." Said the Leader of the Thugs.
Augustus was still in his place holding his katana facing the ground. He then lifted it up and pointed his katana towards the leader of the thugs in front of him.
"Forward." Challenge Augustus.
The leader of the thugs disappeared from August's sight, then in an instant, an invisible attack repeatedly smeared Augus' skin from all directions.
*Srat sret srat.
Augustus tried to attack the thug by swinging his sword in all directions, but none of his kites hit him.
"Ugh..so fast." Mumam Augustus.
Augustus quickly got back on his feet, and prepared a counter-attack.
He was again attacked many times from all directions to make his skin blisters and his blood scattered everywhere
"Hora-hora! how are you going to withstand my attack this brat?!" Shouted the Leader of the Thugs.
August closed his eyes to focus, and exhaled softly before turning his 360° body to the right while raising his sword.
"Zero...burn!"
*Bwoooooshh.
A tornado of fire quickly shot out from the round of Augustus' sword, and it continued to extend around until it set everything it had in flames.
"Oi! your fire spread to the settlements!" Shouted Lina.
Lina who saw the fire of Augustus continued to expand until it almost hit the building in the city. Directing both of his hands underground and chanting a spell.
"The magic of protection, the divine barrier!" Lina.
A barrier quickly formed around the building that was almost hit by the Augustus attack and formed a dome pattern. All of August's attacks were neutralized and disappeared.
"Oops, thanks again Lina!" Shouting Augustus.
After a few minutes of August's fire tornado revolved around the dome barrier, the fire shrank and disappeared.
"Phewww.luckily there's a barrier Lina's made." Mumam Augustus.
After sighing in relief as his attack did not burn into the city building, a body roughly 5 meters away was visible from where Augustus was standing.
Augustus walked up to the body and examined it.
"So? it's done, isn't it?" Augustus.
The lying body was the body of the leader of the thugs who had attacked Augustus repeatedly from all directions.
"You managed to beat me, boy." Rintih Leader thugs in pain.
August sheathed his sword back into its sheath after hearing the defeated statement of the thug leader below him.
"I don't think you're gonna die with that wound, do you?" Augustus.
The leader of the thugs grinned at August's words, then he replied. "Maybe..but why don't you just end me here, boy?" Ask the Leader of the Thugs
"It's no good for me to kill you here. Besides, by letting you live, you owe me your life, right?" Augustus.
"So that's your goal, yeah, you sneaky basics." Said the Head thug.
Augustus only smiled hearing the words of the thugs below him.
"Oi Augussss!" Call Lina from a distance while running towards Augustus.
Hearing Lina call out to him, August turned his gaze to the side and waved at her.
"Yo Lina! thanks for your help earlier, I would really get in trouble if you hadn't made that barrier before." Augustus.
"Well I don't mind anyway, it's just, try to control your powers more next time." Lina's Advice.
"Okay, I'll try better next time." Reply August.
After exchanging words for a while, August left the body of the thug lying around and walked to the inn in front of him along with Lina.
And according to August's previous plan, Augustus would go to the monster area around the 60-70 shakrun city to level up faster.
