After angering her to the limit, Theo continued his way to the left. In fact, he had been looping around them with a huge curve to stop the monsters from catching up.
And the only reason he taunted the Dryad was to make her focus on his taunt instead of his actual movement.
Without them realizing, Theo had made a turn and headed back to the grassland.
As soon as they reached the grassland, the Dryad stopped for a second and looked around.
'He got out? But the forest was supposed to be big. There's no way he could leave this place within a few minutes…' The Dryad frowned and soon realized it was her territory, not others. She realized she was too occupied with Theo's taunt, not noticing Theo's real plan was to return to the grassland.
Still, Theo didn't do anything in the grassland earlier, so she thought Theo would be useless this time around.
Now that there were no more trees, she sent more flying beasts to attack him.
Theo shot them down with his Magic Bullets before doing something unexpected.
Suddenly, the corpses that were scattered around the area floated in the air.
"Wait!" Agata sucked a cold breath and finally deciphered Theo's plan. "Don't tell me the reason why you're asking how many monsters have died and injured was because…"
Theo smiled as he raised his hand, gathering all the corpses on top of them.
"Well, well." Theo laughed. Even the Dryad didn't raise the grass anymore after seeing the corpses.
"What are you doing?" The Dryad gritted her teeth. From the unnecessary taunts to the disrespect for the deceased, Theo had done everything to anger her.
Theo didn't really care about their lives and corpses, so he raised them in the air and planned to drop them soon. "I am just thinking since you're attacking me with those beasts, how about I attack you with those who have fallen? Taste your own attack or something."
Theo launched all the corpses to the monsters. The moment they hit the running monsters, the latter slipped to the ground or, even worse, died because they were injured pretty badly.
The scene was chaotic as they had a hard time controlling their bodies due to these corpses.
Agata furrowed her eyebrows, thinking, 'Monsters' bodies are harder than humans. Not all of them are like that, but most… Theo is using their bodies like using a rock… No, with that size, they're his boulders. Their hardness is close to the boulder, but they're lighter, making it easy to turn them into cannonballs.
'With this, Theo should be able to slow them easily. And since we're going back to where we come from, we will find more and more monsters that we can use to slow them down. This way, we should be able to kill more and turn back to utilize the same technique once again, but with more corpses.
'This way, Theo could preserve his current Magic Power while destroying them. If that's the case, we can defeat the Dryad… Can we? We have been using our Magic Power since this morning, so I'm not very sure.' Agata thought while staring at Theo.
She wondered if this was his real plan.
As if she had enough with Theo's insults, the Dryad leaped forward, making her way to Theo.
"Ava, it's your time. It's the first time for you to challenge your peers. Why don't you show me your power?" Theo smiled.
"Are we going to deal with them?" Ava frowned, thinking it was too reckless to stop now.
However, the doubt soon got answered when she saw the corpses were making the monsters in disarray. With this, they should be able to attack the Dryad for a minute or two.
When Ava was about to transform to her battle form, her body twitched for a split second. There wasn't anyone touching her, so it was weird.
Even then, Ava hurriedly jumped toward the Dryad with her humanoid form.
Seeing Ava's battle form, the Dryad raised her drill and sent it forward. "You are a disgrace of the wilderness."
"Not really." Ava didn't really care about her words as she covered her hand with lightning and struck the drill.
The power of the lightning was burning the drill made of vines, albeit Ava was still pushed back with blood flowing on her finger.
It seemed the drill was still able to injure her.
The Dryad clicked her tongue and inspected her vines that couldn't be used anymore. She then abandoned it and turned the vines into gloves.
While they were fighting, Theo had already finished his construction.
The structure was none other than a wall made of the monsters' corpses, preventing them from attacking them from behind.
At the same time, Theo headed to the left while shouting, "Agata, buy enough time for Ava."
"Got it." Agata nodded and ran to the right before creating a labyrinth to confuse the monsters.
Meanwhile, Ava utilized her Moon Constellation and shot the blue ball.
The Dryad formed a shield with her vines and parried the ball before deflecting it to the side.
After that, she covered her other hand with a drill.
Ava planned to destroy it once again, but as soon as she moved, several vines emerged from the ground and struck her at the same time.
"!!!" Ava raised both hands and blocked the veins from hitting her body, but the vines chose to grasp her instead.
"Lightning Discharge." Ava had seen what the Dryad did to Clone Theo, so she didn't plan to be one. She hurriedly discharged her lightning to burn the vines.
However, this was nothing but a feint from the Dryad. Another vine came out of the ground in front of her as the Dryad emerged from that vine.
"You!" Ava infused all her lightning to the hand and struck the vine.
Bam.
The lightning sparked and burned the vine, including the Dryad. However, the Dryad still managed to move and extended her hand to Ava.
"As expected, you're a disgrace of the wilderness…" The Dryad snorted and touched Ava's head as a white flower bloomed on top of Ava's head.
