Frozen Kingdom

Seven was currently observing the movements of the Pandemonium Descendants in a sneaky manner, maintaining a distance where he could observe the other party clearly unnoticed.

After following Zero for a long time and watching the Sword God work, Seven learned how to move skillfully in the dark despite being a swordsman. He might not be as skilled as Zero in this area but he was skilled enough to fit the job.

He was ordered to observe the movements of the Pandemonium Descendants and report any suspicious actions that they were doing.

His job might be simple on the surface but it might be more dangerous compared to fighting the members of Silent Night.

Not only the Sweepers were skilled at assassinations, but they also had keen senses, making it hard for Seven to observe them.

Even watching the battle between the Earners and Pandemonium Descendants made him very vigilant, especially when he witnessed the battle prowess of each side.

They were also some instances in the battle where he almost got discovered by the two groups. Fortunately, he was at a safe distance which made it hard for the other party to notice him.

Earlier, Zero just contacted him and said that he already had done enough. He could now come back and regroup with them as they were now another person who would take over his job of monitoring the movements of the Pandemonium Descendants.

Swoosh!

Seven was running at full speed, heading towards the coordination that Zero had sent him. During his travel, he encountered quite a few Sweepers, trying to pick a fight with him. But since his current priority was to regroup with his young master and the others, he avoided fighting any of those people.

The Sweepers also didn’t pursue him since their boss informed them not to bother the members of Empyreans Talons and the others for the time being. Even if they wanted to give Seven trouble and make a couple of excuses to dodge the punishment, they would not be able to catch up with him since he was fully focused on running.

"Eh?"

But despite avoiding those Sweepers, trouble still caught up to Seven. He encountered one of the players who were impossible to avoid.

"Tsk! Such bad luck meeting one of them!"

...…

Voltage, one of the members of the Earners Mercenary Group. He belonged to the low-rank members of the group as he was too lazy to do the paper works every time their commission ended.

Regardless of his rank, he was still a Monster Rank Player just like the others. And during his time in ?True Era? Online, he was known as the Spear of the Wind and Lightning because of the way he fought.

His spear technique was top-notch, showcasing the flexibility of the wind and the speed of lightning.

Right now, he was assigned to patrol the area around the place where their group was resting. And since he was too bored with the job, he ventured farther than the area assigned to him.

Fortunately, he found a couple of Sweepers during his patrol, relieving his boredom. And when he was about to go back, he suddenly sensed someone moving at extreme speed.

Curious, Voltage headed over, planning to intercept the other party. And when he saw who that person was, he couldn’t help but grin from ear to ear, thinking that his luck today was pretty good.

"Hoh! Look who we have here. Isn’t this the right-hand man of Sword God Zero?" he said after seeing Seven.

Seven, on the other hand, wore a deep frown when he saw Voltage. It would be hard for him to escape right now since the latter already discovered him. He would only be asking to be killed if he turned his back on such a skilled expert.

Realizing that it was impossible to run away, he decided to face it head-on.

He might be facing a Monster Class Player but he was not afraid. He was following Zero for a long time already and met quite a lot of experts along the way. He even faced a much stronger foe than this person, so there was no need for him to panic.

He unsheathed his swords very calmly while locking his gaze on Voltage.

Shing!

As someone who was responsible for giving Zero all of the information related to the gaming world, Seven knew almost all of the experts within the game. Especially the ones who needed to pay special attention.

’Voltage, B-rank Mercenary, the Spear of Wind and Lightning. He specialized in fast and unpredictable attacks mixed with wind and lighting magic. He should have the Magic Spearman Class or the Battle Mage Class.’

’His strength should be between the Peak of Titled Ranker and a Godlike Player. This is going to be a hard battle but winning is still possible.’

’He may be skilled and strong but he still pales in comparison when it comes to the real monsters that I have encountered,’ he thought as he tried to compare Voltage to Zero, Shin, and Faker.

Compared to those three, this current opponent was really insignificant.

While Seven was lost in his thoughts, Voltage smirked after seeing the guy prepared to fight. "Heh! Interesting~!"

Voltage put his spear on his shoulders and rested his arms by hanging them over it. His form and stance were very relaxed, seemingly indicating that he was not putting Seven in the eyes.

It also showed that he was not planning to attack.

Swoosh!

But all of a sudden, he suddenly took a large stride forward and flicked his spear, swinging it at the head of his opponent.

Such an unexpected move would surely catch anyone off-guard, especially when it came too suddenly.

But it was different for Seven since he was keeping an eye on every movement that Voltage could possibly make. And because of that, he was able to instantly respond to the sudden ambush.

Seven ducked forward, dodging the tip of the spear and letting it fly over his head. And at the same time, he was also swinging his swords simultaneously, throwing horizontal strikes at his opponent’s waist.

Since Voltage’s move was way too sudden and came a little too fast, he couldn’t stop his body from moving forward.

He was not expecting that Seven would be able to react to his ambush, which now put him in his current predicament.

But aside from being a little surprised, Voltage was still wearing a calm look on his face, seemingly not taking his fight seriously.

Right before Seven’s swords touched his body, Voltage suddenly kicked the ground and sent him in the air.

He was still unable to stop himself from moving forward but could avoid colliding with Seven by twisting his body in the air and spinning around. He also put his free hand on the head of his opponent while flying over.

Ta-ta!

And right after his feet touched the ground, he quickly turned around and threw a straight thrust with the spear, targeting the back of his opponent’s head.

He maneuvered his body very smoothly as it only take him an instant to complete those series of movements.

Swoosh!

But despite that being the case, he still hit nothing but thin air Seven’s body suddenly faded away the moment his spear stabbed forward.

He was about to look for Seven since the latter’s presence suddenly disappeared right after his previous attack.

But he was about to look for traces, and he suddenly discovered Seven ducking in front of him once again and throwing a rising slash at him.

’Sword Guardian Skill: Rising Phoenix Slash’

Seven’s sword was suddenly ignited with a blazing flame as it made its way to his opponent.

Seeing that attack, Voltage quickly put all of his strength on his feet and kicked the ground, propelling himself backward and dodging the tip of the blazing sword with the skin of his teeth.

Hu~!

"That was close~!" whistled Voltage after distancing himself away from Seven.

It was at this moment that he realized that he shouldn’t underestimate the swordsman in front of him. He might be a Monster Class Player, but Seven still followed the current number player of the game, so his skill couldn’t be underestimated.

No matter how skilled he was, there was still a chase where he could get taken down by anyone if was too careless.

"Okay, fine. Let’s take this a little seriously. If another accident happens here, I will surely get scolded by our scary captain," said Voltage as he took a battle stance.

He firmly held his spear with of his hands and gently supported its upper body with the other. There was also a hit of electricity flowing through the body of the spear, creating a series of crackling sounds rhythmically.

The air surrounding him immediately changed the moment he took that stance. And the moment when he cast his gaze forward, a heavy pressure was immediately pressed on Seven, making it hard for him to breathe.

"You better brace yourself, Seven. This is going to be a little different from what you’ve experienced so far."
