The sun is very hot in a place without trees. The arid sand was so hot it even looked like it was emitting smoke. Dust flies when the wind blows, as the only thing that can reduce the heat.
In the middle of this desert, there was a line of people with swords neatly sheathed. The Air Kingdom Army stood upright while carrying its chest forward. The morale of this army is very strong now, because of the confidence that is based, which is the fact that the Air Kingdom was able to seize the area from the Fire Kingdom.
A short-haired young man appeared to be riding on a rectangular wooden board with a height of about 7 centimeters. The young man looked at his troops first, then said, “Nomos Air Kingdom is the strongest in the world.”
“Ya!!”
“Life Air Kingdom!”
“Trust Air Kingdom!”
A sentence from the short-haired young man who was none other than Felix, was able to make the Air Kingdom troops excited. His speech was not an empty speech, but a speech with a clear basis. However, that was why the spirit instantly smoldering in the middle of this desert.
Felix got down, walked into a big tent. Here there is a box-shaped table, one seat behind the table, and two chairs in front. In one of the chairs in front of the table, Atlas was seated casually, acting as if he had nothing. However, behind his relaxed attitude, he has a big concern.
Ignoring Atlas completely, Felix sat on the chair behind the table. At the same time, Kaysen and Anthony entered. Their goal was clear, awaiting direction from the commander.
“Everything is ready, Commander,” Anthony said. “We can attack anytime.”
“Do it by breaking down the entrance,” Felix replied.
“Good!” Anthony and Kaysen answered simultaneously.
Before the two men left, Atlas suddenly said, “I'm coming.”
“Hah?” The first person to react was Kaysen. “Atlas .. Do you have a fever? How are you doing? You're not in a critical moment, are you?”
“Shut!” Atlas turned his gaze the other way as Kaysen circled around him. “I just want to make sure there are no intruders.”
Behind them, Felix smiled faintly. “Good. Before you change your mind, just do it.”
“Ya ..” It seems clear that Atlas is not in a good mood.
Atlas, Kaysen, and Anthony set foot outside the tent. Not far ahead, it looks like the Air Kingdom troops are ready to fight with their neat ranks like an ant colony.
Not wasting much time, now Atlas, Kaysen, and Anthony are in the front row. The three of them were separated from the ranks, as they acted as a commando here, while Felix set the strategy behind.
“Nomos Kingdom Air!” exclaimed Kaysen, his tone was completely different from usual. He looked ahead to the already emerging army of the Fire Kingdom led by a young tiger rider. “Se—”
Kaysen had not yet heard the command, someone suddenly appeared from above. It was a young man with a robe made from sheep feathers. The robe had a blood-colored complexion, but it formed a pattern like a blazing flame.
Kaysen was certainly about to attack head-on, but Atlas held the young man by stretching his left hand to the side. Atlas knows this guy. He was the cloaked figure who attacked him last night.
The Wind Kingdom troops remained silent at the rear, as there was no order from Kaysen as well as Anthony in charge here. Moreover, the army from the Fire Kingdom that had been moving fast, had now stopped.
“You came here alone to attack us?” atlas.
For a moment, the cloaked youth glanced around. “Ah, sorry. I thought it was just you here.”
“You ...” Kaysen began to get emotional.
“Do not be rash, Kaysen.” Atlas gave a warning. “It looks like something is wrong with your eyes.”
The robed young man shook his head. “Nothing. It's just, indeed all I know here is you.” He was silent for a moment. “By the way, I'm Draco Evrard. The most powerful person in the world.”
The confidence of Draco is beyond doubt. It was something based, because he was indeed a Star Child.
“Looks like you have to look with your eyes to know the reality,” Atlas said.
“Reality is what's in my head!” Draco leaped forward, instantly launching a single punch towards Atlas. “Aries Robes: Fire Conquerors!”
“Libra Scales: Equivalent Exchange!” Atlas blew the left side of the scales, making the scales emit a bell sound and threw Draco backward using a gust of strong wind. Not enough to get there, Atlas then took the sand with his right hand, drained Erabus into the sand, then put it on the left side of the scales. “Libra Scales: Equivalent Exchange!”
The sound of bells was heard from the scales of libra, then immediately appeared so many wind attacks in the form of sand grains, attacking Draco from all directions. However, Atlas was aware that this was not enough to subvert the opponent.
“Kaysen, Anthony. Hand Draco over to me!” Atlas immediately shot forward, not caring about how Kaysen and Anthony thought. “He is a Star Child!”
“You are second!” Draco exclaimed loudly in the context of the attack directed at him. “I'll beat you, Libra!”
“You can't do it, Aries!” Atlas halted the step, again putting Erabus' sand mixed on the left side of the scales. “Libra Scales: Equivalent Exchange!”
“That won't be enough!” Draco stood up straight. “Aries Robes: Fire Conquerors!”
The red pattern on the sheepskin robe Draco was wearing suddenly gave off a light. In the blink of an eye, the sand that the young man stepped on turned into lava. The arena that turned into lava was about 10 meters away.
Atlas leapt backwards, measuring the length of the area that Draco could turn into lava. Now, Atlas can set the attack pattern. However, Draco immediately jumped forward, again attacking Atlas using a right-handed blow coated with molten lava.
“Cih!” Atlas jumps to the side, but the area that turns into lava can change according to where Draco stands. This means that Atlas cannot attack Draco within 10 meters.
“Don't be a coward!” Draco tried to give provocation. Unfortunately, such a provocation, especially so cheap, would not be able to provoke Atlas' emotions. What a futile act.
Unwilling to be provoked by Draco, Atlas now continues to keep a distance of 10 meters while thinking. He is aware of his weakness, which is not being able to exchange anything that does not touch his libra scales. Moreover, since his body was not special, Atlas could not touch the lava Draco had, so could not use it for equivalent exchange.
Despite facing difficult situations and crazy attacks from Draco, Atlas slowly thinks of a way out. He must keep thinking to then be able to get the best way out!
