Chapter 17 Show Off
Being startled by the unexpected events, the wingman pointed his staff at Seraher and chanted when he realized his friend was about to die.
\'\'Lighting Ba… \'\'
\'\'I have had enough of your balls. \'\'
Raydon shouted and threw the stone he had taken from his dimensional storage at the still-in-the-air iron-staff man at an exact angle with all of his strength.
The iron-staff man\'s balls were crushed by the stone, which was launched like a meteor with the purpose of eradicating the dinosaur species.
\'\'Gahh!!! \'\' The winged man fell to the ground, groaning with pain and anticipatory anxiety.*
The wingman with the great sword had nothing left to prevent Seraher\'s sword from falling over his neck at this point.
\'\'Ghlige Shigah.\'\' In his final moments, he tried to use a skill to defend himself, but in vain. Even breathing was too difficult for him because of the vine around his throat let alone chanting the skill name.
The system message was finally heard once more as the ice-blue sword quickly slashed the wingman\'s throat.

Gary, who had already come to his senses, and Leas, who was currently trying to heal him, were stunned by everything that was happening in front of them.
Their only thought a short while ago was to survive until the match was over. And, despite doing everything they could, they were on the verge of failing.
However, with only one person involved in the fight, everything was turned upside down. They were both in awe and admiration as they glued their eyes to Raydon\'s perverted appearance.
\'He is not even that strong.\' Leas muttered.
This is the truth. Raydon had not demonstrated superhuman strength or speed since his arrival. He didn\'t even use any flashy skills; hell, he didn\'t even have any skills at all.
However, his mere presence caused the enemy to overthink. They believed Raydon possessed mysterious skills other than his quick reflexes.
Indeed, he has many talents, but there was no need to show all of them to defeat this kind of enemy.
\'\'It was easy. \'\' Raydon turned to face the final wingman and grinned mischievously once more.
The wingman with the iron staff was stunned. Within minutes, he was the only survivor of the three-man team. A strange fear gripped his body as he noticed Raydon\'s creepy smile and dark eyes staring at him.
\'I need to escape. \' That was his only thought, and without thinking twice, he turned around and began to fly away.
\'\'Tch, he is escaping. \'\' Gary muttered as he started to rise to his feet with a slightly healed body.
Seraher said, looking at Raydon, ignoring the items dropped by the wingman in front of her. \'\'All dropped items belong to you. \'\'
\'\'Yes, yes, anyway, we\'d be dead by now if you weren\'t here. It is enough for us to at least keep our level and items. Also, we won the match thanks to you. \'\' Leas chirped with delight.
The opposing team had only two survivor left, and they knew he couldn\'t close the point gap on his own, so they had already won the match thanks to Raydon.
While everyone was looking at Raydon with various emotions, waiting for him to say something, he completely ignored them and went to the location where the woman with the crossbow had died.
He examined the items that had been left behind by the winged woman.
A pair of trousers, a jacket, and the winged woman\'s crossbow were all on the ground.
Raydon picked up the crossbow, took a stick out of his dimensional storage, and placed it on the arrow socket. The stick, though not an arrow, fit easily into the socket because the crossbow was made to be able to fire a variety of arrows.
He pointed the crossbow at the winged man who had already traveled a considerable distance, under the watchful eyes of all who waited to see what he was going to do.
\'\'What is he doing? \'\' Leas asked curiously.
\'\'He is …\'\' Gary gulped. He didn\'t even want to believe what Raydon was trying to do.
Raydon\'s jet-black eyes were fixed on the black dot that was fading from view. His body remained motionless, like a rooted tree. He inhaled deeply and experienced every last detail of the wind\'s blowing motion in his body.
\'What kind of concentration is this? \' Raydon\'s perfect posture earned Seraher\'s admiration. It seemed as though he was about to shoot the heavens down to the earth with the crossbow in his hand.
He finally fired his crossbow after slightly angling it upward.
The stick shot up into the sky and quickly vanished, going who knows where. Everyone who had lost sight of the stick returned their gaze to Raydon.
\'Oh, so he was just experimenting with the crossbow. \' Upon realizing this, everyone exhaled a sigh of relief. After all, it wasn\'t a sniper, and using a crossbow to hit a moving target at that distance was thought to be too difficult, if not impossible.
Everyone was thinking about how stupid their momentary thinking had been as the recognizable system message rang in their ears once more, as though meddling with their emotions.
[Lv.8 Winged-man(F) has been killed.]
[Your team gained 8 points.]
After they had come to the conclusion that nothing could possibly surprise them anymore as a result of what this enigmatic man had done since the beginning of the match, another amazing event occurred in front of their very eyes.
Leas and Gary gaped in disbelief as they looked at Raydon, and Seraher muttered in wonder. \'Who exactly are you?\'
\'\'He fell quite far, I\'ll have to walk a bit to get the dropped items. \' With one hand, Raydon shielded the sun from his face as he watched the winged man on the horizon fall to the ground.
He then returned his attention to the items on the ground and collected all of the items that had dropped, ignoring the others.
He completed gathering all the items when he suddenly realized he was facing a serious issue.
