Chapter 228: Putting On A Show Pt.1

Lake wanted to know how they had been able to find him and since the fight hadn't started yet he asked. "How were you able to find me?" Lake had always figured he couldn't be tracked because of Trespasser but this might not be true since it said magic which might not include skills.

Magic can't be used to locate, or sense you.

"I'll answer if you answer one of my questions first." Lake had no problem with this since he planned to kill them, meaning anything he told them wouldn't go any further, plus he could lie. "Ok, deal."

"Were you the same person who attacked the base or is there more than one of you?" Lake could understand why they would be curious about this since it would help them plan to fight him and since he didn't care if they knew he told the truth. "There's only me. Ok answer my question now."

"I saw the flaming arrow and followed you when I saw you move." It was good to know that they had just used their eyes to find him and not some fancy skill. "Ok it's time to start the fight."

"No, wait one more thing. Would you be interested in joining our side? Even if it's just for the rest of this altercation we can offer you more than whoever you're working for." Lake wasn't surprised to get a job offer because he would try it as well if he had seen what he could do with a bow. It was too bad he had long decided to stay away from the Demon Lord because he was sure he would make more by working for them instead.

Firing off some spells whenever he saw an opening Lake and the other guy fought like this for over ten minutes until they tried to open dialogue again. "My offer is rescinded, you aren't as strong as I thought you were. It seems you can only deal with large amounts of small fry and are almost useless against someone like me."

Right after they got done talking Lake felt something hit him in the back hard enough to send him flying towards the Demon Worshiper. When he felt his bag start to get lighter he knew he had just sprung a leak in his bag so he probably got hit with the same attack that had hit him earlier.

This meant this Demon Worshiper had some skill or spell that struck you in your back. It was probably their go to kill spell but it didn't seem to do any actual damage to him because he was still at full health. Stopping himself a few steps away from the Demon Worshiper Lake acted like he was in a tough spot and threw as many fire spells at them as he could without killing them.

Hitting them with a few of ten he launched Lake fell back without a problem only to be hit from behind again. Lake was able to stop himself much sooner since he had been expecting it but it seemed the Demon Worshiper noticed he didn't seem to be hurt at all. "I thought it was your armor keeping you from getting hurt. Do you have an Antimagic job, no that wouldn't make sense you're using Fire magic.?"

Lake also noticed something around the time the Demon Worshiper had started to talk his Ward Ring hadn't activated once during this fight which was odd since it was supposed to block magic. He guessed this settled the debate over if it was a spell or a skill. It also made him think skills weren't always considered magic depending on how they worked.

"It's a skill, it makes me invincible." Lake wondered what the odds were someone would actually believe what he had just said. "Oh, for how long though?" Lake smiled when he heard how sarcastic the Demon Worshiper sounded when he asked him how long he was invincible for. "Two more minutes."

After he said this the fight went back to how it had been with him getting hit in the back every few seconds. All his stuff had already fallen out so there was no harm in playing the part because he didn't have to worry about any of his stuff getting hit or destroyed with it laying on the ground.

There was also no difference to him if the entire back of his armor was gone since he had decided to get rid of it as soon as he found something else as soon as the first hole had been put in it. There was plenty of armor and bags here in the Metal Domain just lying around in the houses that he could take to replace the one he was wearing.

A lot of people here seemed to treat armor as normal clothes so most houses had a set just sitting in a bedroom so all he had to worry about was finding one that fit. A lot of the armor would belong to dwarves so at most he would be able to take the shoulder guards off of most of them other than that a lot of the armor would be too tight.
