<h4>Chapter 239 - Taking Care Of The Trash</h4>


    Richard stood rooted to the ground, not expecting Grey was able to deflect his attack with nothing more than a wave of his hand.


    "Impossible!" He refused to believe it.


    Smith, on the other hand, was already shaking, he could already see the power difference between them, he''s not as stupid as Richard and refuses to believe what was in front of him.


    "Please, spare me." He instantly begged for mercy.


    What was important now was keeping his life. Given how adamant he previously was to kill us, he was sure us wouldn''t think twice before killing him.


    us who just stood up looked at him in disgust, "At least fight with pride."


    Boom!


    Richard attacked once again, this time, he sent out a huge fire stream, hoping to cover up the group with it.


    "Haha, I don''t believe you guys are what you said you were!" Heughed after seeing that his attack wasn''t blocked this time.


    They waited for a few seconds and the fire slowly started dying down, looking closer, they didn''t sense any movement from where the group was previously sitting.


    "Haha, you see, they were only posers. I think there was something that made the effect of the wine not affect them." Richard broke into a fit ofughter.


    Smith who was previously afraid looked around properly, after not sensing anything, he wanted to celebrate but he was still slightly optimistic. He decided to celebrate after the fire died downpletely and was sure they had truly defeated Grey and the others.


    Just as Richard was about to turn around, us'' voice could be heard from the mes.


    "You think this would actually hurt us? Ha! Don''t make meugh." He said in amus.e.m.e.nt.


    "Huh!" Richard turned around.


    "Tsk tsk, such a shame, this was a good garden." us shook his head as he removed the ice wall that was in front of them.


    Grey and the others soon came into full view of Richard and Smith, and they noticed that they haven''t even moved from their previous spot, Grey and Reynolds were even drinking and chatting casually, while Void had mysteriously appeared on Alice''s l.a.p once again. The flowers around them had been destroyed, but the ones behind them were protected by the ice wall.


    "I won''t ept this, attack together." Richard ordered.


    "Okay." Smith nodded after managing to gather some confidence.


    "Let''s end this quickly, I still need to get some sleep." us said nonchntly.


    This wasn''t a battle that would really bother him, all he wanted to do now was to rob the treasury of some coins before leaving. Once they''ve left this ce, he would sleep peacefully in an Inn.


    Richard sent a fireball towards us while Smith caused an earth spike toe out of the ground, below us.


    "Hmph! Ants." us snorted before making ice rise from the ground just as the earth spike wasing from the ground. Standing on top of the ice, he rose higher into the air.


    Bang!


    The ice pir which rose along with us was hit by the fireball that Richard sent over, but due to us'' high proficiency with ice, it couldn''t break it.


    Richard sent another fireball at us who was standing on the ice mid-air, and us casually moved the ice, dodging all the fireballsing his way.


    "Don''t let them go, it''ll notify others." Grey said before using his water element to stop the fireballs before they exploded in the air and drawing attention to them.


    He forgot Void isted the area and acted unconsciously, it was only after destroying them did he recall it.


    ''It''s not bad being a little too cautious.'' He thought.


    There''s a chance that the fireball might draw attention to them, that was a chance he didn''t want to take.


    "Okay, boss." us said sarcastically.


    "Attack the pir that''s supporting him." Richard switched tactics.


    Since he couldn''t hit us while he was in the air, he would bring him down.


    Smith made an earth sword that he sent towards the pir supporting us in the air.


    Richard on the other hand sent a barrage of fire arrows towards it.


    us raised both hands into the air exaggerating and a water wall rose almost six meters into the air, easily blocking the attacks sent out by Richard.


    us stayed on the defensive for another minute, easily blocking the attacks of both Richard and Smith anytime they attacked. He was still mid-air, showing off his awesomeness.


    "Time to end this." us smirked.


    The ice pir he was standing on top suddenly sunk into the ground.


    Boom!


    Ice smoke spread across the space in the garden, barring the vision of both Richard and Smith.


    us casually moved around in the ce, and before long, the smoke died down, with both Richard and Smith incapacitated, the pond at the center of the garden was also frozen solid.


    They were currently unable to use their elements, and their feet were frozen to the ground.


    "I initially nned to kill you, but you have a more important use." us said while standing in front of Smith.


    After saying that, he walked to where Richard was frozen, "You on the other hand are very useless, but killing you now is no fun."


    Richard looked at him with hateful eyes, but said confidently, "You can''t kill me, my father is an Overlord ne expert. You can''t afford to offend someone like him."


    "Haha, you think you can threaten me with that? I''ll kill you if I want to, even if your father was the emperor." usughed it off but didn''t kill him yet.


    He walked back to where Smith was standing, "Now, tell me, where is the mayor''s treasury?"
