My Space-Time System

[You don't have to worry, the biggest question on their mind right now would be how 2 of you perfectly calculated the angle the water barriers were meant to be at.] The system assured him.

The system was right, because of how rare the space element was only a few knew what its spells felt or looked like, and since it was concealed by the water barrier the system was sure that no one had noticed it.

"Let's show them what we've got..." Blake said with a smirk as he began preparing space freeze.

"Rock wall!"

Once again with the help of the system, Brian was able to perfectly erect a rock wall that was less than a meter tall in the path of the first carriage.

Normally, with the carriage's barrier, it would have easily broken through the rock wall with such momentum, but this was no normal wall but one reinforced with space freeze.

Crash!

With its terrifying momentum, the 1st carriage crashed into the reinforced rock wall, but instead of going through, the carriage was sent spinning in mid-air. The two men that had shot the carriage hook from the roof were launched onto the ground with so much force that they sustained multiple fractures and dislocations.

Whoosh!

Blake and everyone on his carriage was waiting to hear the sound of shattering wood, but before the carriage could meet the ground, a strong gust of wind flipped the carriage, smoothening its landing and enabling it to continue its chase.

Squish! Squish!

"Shit!"

Both Blake and Brian couldn't help but look away as the 2nd and 3rd carriages squashed the bones and skulls of their fallen teammates to minced meat, painting a gory picture on the road with their entrails.

"Not sure if I should be happy because they are 2 down or I should be sad because they have a strong wind user..." Brian said with a wry smile.

"We can only hope that our hirer is powerful… Are you kidding me?!" Once again Blake was forced to stop halfway when he saw 4 men coming out of the 2nd and 3rd carriages with carriage hooks.

The men on the 2nd carriage were the first to ready the carriage hook. With the help of the second man supporting the end of the weapon, the first man aimed before firing at Blake's carriage.

[Whenever you decide to speak, something goes wrong. I think you should keep your lips shut.]

With the imminent danger in front of him, Blake couldn't care less about the system's remark. He gave Brian the signal and once the perfectly placed water barriers were in place, Blake used space freeze to reinforce them.

Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!

Once again, the hook was deflected by the barrier and was sent crashing into the paved road, but before they could even celebrate the men on the 3rd carriage had already taken aim.

"Shit!" Blake cursed, defending 1 of the carriage hook wasn't an easy feat. Even if they had the system to perfectly calculate the angles of their spells, casting it at a specified location from a moving vehicle was very tasking and they wouldn't be able to pull it off in such a short time.

"Hold onto something!"

While Blake was cracking his brain and trying to figure out what to do, the voice of the carriage driver reached his ears.

Zoom!

The pointed hook engraved with multiple arrays that improved its penetration power zoomed through the air and made its way to their carriage, but before the hook could penetrate the carriage's barrier the carriage driver made a turn so sharp that if not for Taliesin conjuring cushioned rock pillars to support it, the carriage would have lost its balance and tumbled over.

(AN: remember the power of a geomancer, they can change the topography of the earth.)

Crash!

The hook missed its target only by an inch and crashed into the ground, but their miss wasn't close to being enough for them to stop the chase.

They made the turn and in front of them was a blazing rock wall blocking their path, but something at this level couldn't block them.

From the window of the 1st carriage, a hand came out and fired a mana ball twice the size of what Blake could do.

BOOM!

When the ball of concentrated mana came in contact with the blazing wall a deafening explosion rang out as dust and tiny bits of rocks were scattered in all directions at astonishing speeds, but before they could cross, 2 balls of emerald-colored flames swept past the 1st carriage and hit those on the other carriages.

"Ahhh!"

"Ahhhh!"

When the emerald flames came in contact with their skin, they quickly spread to the other parts of their bodies before they could do anything. The flames kept raging on but surprisingly there was no visible damage but their screams of agony were a clear indication that a lot of damage was being done.

The submergers in both carriages tried using their spells to quench the emerald flames, but all their attempts were to no avail. In their panic, they came in contact with the unquenchable flames that spread to their body and started a new cycle.

"Soul flames..." Blake who stood still at the top of his carriage was entranced by the chaos caused by just 2 balls of soul flames.

(AN: Remember the chapter when I introduced the different types of flames, yea the emerald flames are soul flames.)

Soul flames possess a vicious and unquenchable thirst to burn anything they came in contact with. For soul flames to be conjured, the user has to use a spark of his/her life essence to lit the sinister flames.

The word sinister was an understatement to how vicious the flames were because when the emerald flames were released their shape and size could be altered by the user's will, but the flames couldn't be put out until every living thing it had come in contact with was turned to ashes.

Soul flames weren't like ordinary flames that inflicted physical damage, once they came in contact with their target it directly attacks the soul.
