Chapter 1796 Escaping At Last
Meanwhile, Levant and Evan had brought Elias to a wide space.
When they arrived, Levant added a couple more conditions to drag the time Elias spend outside.
That way, Davin would have more time to search for the antidote.
Elias had already heard from Shermaine that someone was planning to impersonate him, so he was prepared. He wasn’t in a hurry to return, so he agreed to whatever conditions Levant asked of him.
Not only that, but he also intentionally slowed his attacks so that Levant wouldn’t have too much trouble fighting him.
Levant was naturally unimpressed by his moves. He’s not moving as fast as Juan described. Did he exaggerate how quickly Elias can move?
They fought against each other for quite some time, but a winner still wasn’t decided. Evan started to find the situation weird as well. Elias doesn’t seem as though he’s eager to win. In fact, he would intentionally hold himself back. Is he afraid that we’ll learn his moves, or…
Levant unleashed the attack that Faye had taught him against his opponent. Elias handily dodged the attack at the speed of lightning.
Seeing him move like a phantom in a disorienting manner, Levant couldn’t help but exclaim inwardly, He’s actually really good! But if that’s the case, why isn’t he rushing to win? Why is he playing with me?
“If we continue to fight like this, there won’t be a victor even when the sun rises, Elias.”
“So what? I’ll fight until tomorrow morning if that’s what it takes.”
I pity your people who fell into Shermaine’s palm while attempting to impersonate me. I wonder how they’ll tease him and if he’ll still be alive when I return. Elias smirked.
Evan had a very strong sense that something was wrong, but he couldn’t put his finger on it.
Levant sneered, “You sure are full of yourself! Fine! Then we’ll fight until morning and see who loses!”
He was still proceeding with the plan of dragging the fight as long as he could to increase Davin’s chance of finding the antidote. Hence, he wasn’t afraid to play with Elias.
“All right, then! Let’s continue!”
The two began to fight again.
Evan was convinced that something was definitely wrong. The journey up the mountain is too easy. Luring Elias out of his place is too easy as well. And the fact that we managed to make him waste his time… Everything is just too easy! Is it possible that… I should check up on Davin.
He sneaked out of the fight and returned to the cave to find his brother.
Davin was currently staring at a pile of wood as he mumbled about how messy Daemonic Mount was. Is it possible that those two women are making me do all this because they’ve found out I’m a fake? Are they messing with me on purpose? There’s no way I can carry all of this out before Elias returns! At that point, it doesn’t matter if I get exposed or not if I can’t steal the antidote! Looks like I’ll return empty-handed tonight. If that’s the case, then why the hell am I still doing all this?
He studied the place a little and decided to sneak out when the Guardians weren’t paying attention. However, Frida had already predicted this, as she had arranged two guards to keep an eye on him.
Not only that, she even gestured to him like how he was doing it earlier, making him hate her from the bottom of his heart.
Finally, as his rage reached its peak, he confronted the guards. “I am a Guardian! How dare you two small fries monitor me like this!”
“W-What happened to your voice, Sir?”
Seeing that he was about to get exposed, Davin looked around the place before picking up a wooden club out of desperation. Then he smashed it against the heads of the guards.
The guards fell to the ground, and he escaped as fast as he could. He found Damien and Draven and asked them to leave with him.
“Why did you come out of there, Mr. Davin?”
“Do you have the antidote, Mr. Davin?”
“Argh! Let’s just drop it for now and leave. We don’t want to get spotted.”
“Mr. Davin, did you see Mr. Seet? He just went in to look for you.”
“What?” Davin was shocked.
