Eye System

Lex was amused by how weak the bond was between the bandit tribe leader and his subordinates.

He was ruling with his force and power, and by also providing his subordinates with whatever they could have ever wanted, but most of the citizens in the tribe were treated as mere slaves.

Their lack of trust made it so that the infrastructure, organisation and management of the tribe were horrible, which was why they couldn't even call themselves a country despite the number of citizens and the amount of land that it occupied.

However, one thing was for certain, the bandit leader was capable and had a lot of knowledge, experience and resources, which made it so that he couldn't be underestimated, especially if he was backed against a corner.

"You think you have won. I admit, I was impressed by your friend managing to equal me in striking power, however, I am the Fist Lord and have never lost a battle. I do not plan on changing that" he declared.

Angela didn't take what he said seriously and although he was a Mortal King, within her Ice Domain, felt as though she could handle him with ease.

However Lex didn't feel the same way and after fighting him himself and experiencing many battles with all sorts of people, had very sharp instincts and had learnt to trust them.

"Angela, do not underestimate him and be careful. I believe he still has some sort of trump card or trick up his sleeve. He is still dangerous" he warned.

Angela heeded Lex's warning and knew that Lex was very experienced and had never been wrong, but she was still also confident in herself and wanted to use her Ice Explosion Ability against the bandit leader.

His fists suddenly became coated in a red energy and power, and his ultimate ability seemed to be one that would allow him to burn his blood essence and life force to strengthen his fists.

"The ultimate Fist Skill, Fists Of Death. I will crush you all" he roared.

Not only had his fists been strengthened, but also the speed and power of his entire body as he burst towards Angela, who had barely been able to form enough ice to block the first strike.

"Your mere ice cannot stop me, little girl" 

As he said that, he unleashed a flurry of powerful fists and Angela was launched flying backwards and slamming her back into a building that was dozens of metres behind her.

She hadn't been directly hit by the bandit tribe leader's fists, but the impact with the ice and power of them caused great shockwaves.

The strength of his fists had reached a level that he could use them to attack from a distance by firing powerful bursts of air.

"Watch as your two girlies get beaten by me, then I will deal with you. After that, I will make you wish that you joined me and you will be begging for forgiveness"

It was clear that the bandit tribe leader was furious, while he was also using the opportunity to show his assert his power and dominance over his subordinates.

Angela wiping some blood that leaked from her mouth from the impact was still calm and although she was angry, it wasn't apparent on her face.

Her cold abilities would turn all emotion into power and allow her demeanour, mind and attitude to stay calm, collected and cold.

Closing her eyes she focused her energy into her palms and she attempted to form an Explosive Ice Orb, however, it exploded in her hand and failed.

"Hahaha, you cannot even form an attack. Just give up now and if you pleasure me, I might allow you to live" mocked the bandit tribe leader.

He wanted to give them all painful and long deaths and his fury wouldn't subside as long as he made them suffer.

However what he said merely annoyed Angela and the others even more.

"Calm down and focus. You can do it, Angela, show me what you are truly capable of" encouraged Lex who was observing what she was attempting to do with her energy and gained a basic understanding of how she was planning to increase her explosive power.

From his observations, it became clear to him that it would be very difficult to pull off what she was trying to do and master it in the future, but he believed that she could do it, and so did Angela.

With Lex's encouragement, she was even more determined to use form a successful Ice Explosion attack and she never wanted to feel disappointed in herself or have to rely on Lex.

All she wanted was to be able to stand by his side and be able to repay him for what he had done for her and become powerful for herself.

And she wasn't going to allow anyone or anything to get in the way of her and her companions.

Explosive Ice Orb

She gathered an extremely large amount of energy into her hands that she swirled in a circular motion to form an orb, while also compressing it and lowering the temperature as much as she could.

Following the theory and method for forming an Ice Explosion, she created her own skill based on her observations on Ella's energy orbs and what she had just learnt.

"This is where you die" she stated before launching the Explosive Ice Orb at the bandit tribe leader.

It blitzed through the air at unbelievable speeds and since the distance between them wasn't very far, it seemed to be bound to hit him.

However, the bandit leader's speed, reflexes and flexibility were amazing enough for him to be able to narrowly dodge it by leaning all the way back.

Despite that, Ella, Lex and Angela all had smiles on their faces, knowing what was coming next.

"You shouldn't have underestimated my companion, and now you are dead," said Lex as he awaited for Angela to unleash the true capabilities of the skill she had created.
