I Hate Systems

The Magic Warrior System’s Core Skill granted her authority over all the six elements of the Warrior Profession. Moreover, it did so by withholding the power from the Warrior Profession.

This meant that even if the Warrior Profession wishes to take her powers as a Saint, she wouldn’t lose anything and still retain all her powers as a Human Warrior Saint.

Moreover, Warriors had tough bodies, reinforced by the element they had. This was why Warriors with two elements were a lot stronger than Warriors with a single element. It was because their bodies were refined and strengthened by two elements.

In that case, what about the current her, one whose body had been refined and reinforced by six elements?

Her strength ballooned to terrifying extents. This was why, despite only using the fire and wind elements, she still trashed the three Saints of Gormana.

And as long as she stood tall, Gormana wouldn’t be able to invade the Xetuka Kingdom, which would mean Slayer’s plan would fail.

This was what Stencil had intended in the first place, using the massive trove of Mental Energy she had banked to filter and create the type of System she needed for this situation.

And she had created four such Systems, granting two to the Saints of the Xetuka Kingdom and the other two to the Saints of the Burnak Kingdom.

There were four Saints in the Burnak Kingdom, with two of them siding with the Talon Secret Organisation. The remaining two had now become System Hosts.

The reason was simple: To strengthen them in a short time.

This was the best way to put a wrench in Slayer’s plans.

Kekumi Xetuka stared at the three Giant Saints getting up, cracking her knuckles as she condensed gigantic fiery fists that she rained down from the skies, grouping up the three before pummelling them in unison.

Each of her punches were strong enough to go past their defences as a Tank, injuring them while the intense heat continued to burn up, affecting their bodies gradually.

“Aargh!” Saint Garmd shouted before punching the ground, causing a crater when suddenly, his mana boomed, causing a geyser to gush out of the ground and slam into Kekumi Xetuka, sending her flying away.

Under his control, the water geyser transformed into a water serpent and lashed out at Kekumi Xetuka, slamming her into the ground.

“Get up, hurry.” Saint Garmd said, spitting out some blood as he rapidly raised the temperature in the surroundings, culling the lava as the entire ground was cooled down.

The water was sourced from a massive sea farther to the east. In preparation to this war, Saint Garmd had dug a large tunnel from the sea to this location. This way, he could siphon and control a consistent stream of water.

He didn’t stop at just one tunnel and created multiple and multiple locations, just for contingency.

Swoosh!

As the ground cooled down rapidly, large leafy wraps flew at them. Saint Garmd opened his mouth, catching the leafy wrap that he munched and swallowed, sensing his mana burst out, spiking in quality as all his injuries healed.

The case was the same for the other two Saints too.

“Thanks, now return.” Saint Garmd stared at the final Saint of the Gormana, watching the other party make a hurried escape.

The Giant Race had two Main Professions of Manipulator and Tank. They also had one Sub-Profession of Herbalist, a non-combative profession.

Their fourth Saint was actually an Herbalist and hence couldn’t fight. But thanks to his powers as a Herbalist, he could create leafy wraps with a myriad powers. He was the Giant Race’s version of an Alchemist that refined potions.

The moment the three Saints were on the losing side, the Herbalist quickly created leafy wraps to help them, and had done a spectacular job.

“Now, I can fight at full strength.” Saint Garmd revealed a smile, controlling dozens of water dragons in the sky, watching Kekumi Xetuka bolt towards the water dragons like a shooting star.

The water began to vaporise in a matter of seconds under the heat but Saint Garmd continued to siphon in water, enough to offset the vaporisation.

Following that, Saint Gult controlled the air, applying pressure to lock Kekumi Xetuka, gradually raising the intensity in order to construct her to one place.

“Keuk!” Kekumi Xetuka coughed when her fire was gradually overwhelmed by the water as the wind she used to protect herself was now confined by the opponent’s. Moreover, after it was pressurised to a certain extent, the wind solidified to form a layer of coating on her body, turning her into a sculpture.

Saint Gult intended to suffocate her gradually while Saint Garmd kept her powers at bay.

As for Saint Gaff, he was the one that had a lot riding on his shoulders, for he was manipulating the layer of earth that had now formed over Kekumi Xetuka, using it to restrict her movements.

This was how they joined hands to constrict their opponent.

“Don’t let up, keep pressuring her!” Saint Garmd shouted, using his water dragons to revolve around Kekumi Xetuka, extinguishing any flames that formed around her, “Pour all your mana into compressing her. Make her a dot!”

“Yeah,” Saint Gult nodded, nerves protruded as he focused all his strength on the wind around her, compressing it without limits as massive reserves of his mana was consumed every second.

“Gaargh!” Saint Gaff bellowed as the layer of earth began to press her body further, causing the muscles to deform as creaking sounds resounded from her bones.

The two opposing parties were caught in this stalemate for more than two minutes before Saint Gaff shouted with reddened eyes, “Die!”

Crack!

The sound of something snapping resounded loud and clear in the surroundings, akin to a thunderclap, immediately causing the faces of the trio to brighten up. But an instant later, shock layered their expressions.

They watched in horror as the humanoid sculpture of Kekumi Xetuka that they had created shatter, revealing a hollow inside.

And at the same time, something pierced through their chests simultaneously, poking out from the other side. They were blades, each swirling with dense amounts of Metal, Fire, and Lightning Mana, their shafts invisible.

Though, if one noticed closely, there were tiny portals attached to the end of visible portion of the shafts, spanning the exact diameter. And, standing a kilometre away was Kekumi Xetuka, thrusting the weapon through the tiny portal that only encompassed the shaft she held.
