Single Stat System

[Julius: Be careful Agila, I think Kristina is heading your way.]

"Tsk..." Agila suddenly turned more serious, reading the new message of their leader as he clicked his tongue. There was no need for the other party to tell it as he could see Kristina suddenly rushing in his direction. With that, he could already tell that she was after him for sure. Just who the hell was that guy for her to obey him to that extent? He even gave her some kind of healing item as she was healed right after consuming it. Such immense wealth was really astonishing.

"This is really troublesome..." Agila frowned deeply as he knew full well that he was no match against Kristina in close-range combat. He wouldn't even last a minute if they ever fight closely. Just what should he do now?

He knew as well that other than Izel and their leader, no one among them would be able to catch up to Kristina's speed. That said, even if Oso, Pael, Gilbert, or even with the three of them combined, tried to intercept her, it was more possible for them to not be able to even delay her even a second as she could go away whenever she pleased. Not only that, even if those three really tried to intercept her, with her concealing capability, they might not even be able to meet her on the way even if she went past in the middle of them.

That was just how terrifying her concealing capability was. She was a great assassin that needed to be wary of by any Middle Ranker and below rank.

"Damn it." Agila gritted his teeth as he stood up and store his two meters long sniper gun in his Inventory. Since his location was likely to be known by Kristina already, he decided to change position as soon as possible. But before that...

Agila suddenly thought of something as he couldn't help but smile. With a wave of his hand, he then retrieved a spherical item from his Inventory.

This item was black in color with some greying lines on it. In the middle, there was a red light flashing from time to time. And from the looks of it, this item was actually a bomb. Just thinking how much destruction this bomb could cause, could only turn his smile into an ear-to-ear grin.

"Damn bitch. Let's see how will you die from this." With that in mind, Agila dropped the item on the ground. After which, it went through the ground like a ghost as if it wasn't even there in the first place.

So seeing that the bomb had been dropped, Agila raised his hand forward as he said, "Clone!"

After which, something like a light brown gum came out from his palm as it floated in the midair. After another moment, it became bigger and bigger as it changed shape similar to that of a human. And after a few more moments, it became no different than a human. Or to be more precise, its appearance and clothing were no different than Agila himself. The only difference was that it didn't have any emotion as it just stood up straight in front of Agila.

Agila nodded his head in satisfaction. After which, he retrieved a pistol from his Inventory as he gave it to the clone he had just created with his skill. The clone then accepted the gun and carried it with his right hand.

"Shoot Kristina when she reaches your attack ranger," Agila ordered with a grin. This toy might not be able to kill that bitch but it was not the purpose of it. It was to invite her to come!

"Yes," The clone of Agila replied without any emotion. After which, it turned around to see the forest on the foot of the cliff as if waiting for Kristina to arrive already.

Seeing that everything was been set, Agila left the area hurriedly and search for a good spot to watch the good show later on.

Agila only needed his thought to let the bomb explode. Thus, once Kristina arrived in the area or got closer... Agila grinned again as he imagined how that bitch would suffer from his trap.

***

Meanwhile, as Agila was still preparing for his scheme, and just after Kristina left the area...

"Izel can you delay those three? I think they were about to arrive here in a minute or two." After being informed by his Blood Servant about the incoming enemies, Sakim asked Izel to delay their arrival. Although he felt that it was a bit too much for Izel to handle the three of them alone, what he only needed was to delay them until he fed the Blood Manipulator Pill to Julius.

Izel smiled hearing her master as she replied, "There's no need to be polite, master. After all, I am your servant and I will follow your every order to the best of my abilities."

"Then what the hell are you waiting for? Hurry up and scram!" Sakim spoke coldly. It was as if he was going to eat the other party if there was any more delay.

"Ye-yes!" Izel responded and was taken aback. Her master didn't really show any politeness? How scary. Did he happen to have multiple personalities within him?

But afraid that she might anger her master even more, Izel disappeared and left the area. Damn it. Izel cursed inwardly. She shouldn't have told her master to not be polite with her. She never thought that he was that easy to talk with.

"Now then," Seeing that Izel had left the area, Sakim turned his gaze at the leader of the bandit. With a smile, and while he stepped forward and walked in the other party's direction, he said, "I think your sniper friend is now busy running away. So don't you think it's time for you to take your medicine?"

"Stay away from me you bastard!" Julius exclaimed coldly when he suddenly felt a chill seeing that Sakim was coming in his direction. He could tell that this guy was still planning to feed him that red bead. Although he didn't know what exactly was that, he was more than certain that that item was no good. And seeing that the other party didn't even bother to stop walking in his direction, he could only feel restless.

"Damn it," Julius cursed silently. He hurriedly sent Agila a new message, telling him to buy him some more time. There were only four minutes left before the paralysis status effect of The Fooler wore off. And that short period wouldn't be enough for Kristina to arrive at Agila's location. That being said, after four minutes, Agila still had some time to run away and find a good spot.
