I have Nine Lives - Chapter 193
The silhouette of the twins became fully visible as their new appearance was reflected into Felix’s eyes.
Unlike before. When it was obvious they were two parts put two together, there was no difference between their parts now, the hair color and eye color were the same as the hair became white, and the eyes became purple.
Both parts of them looked like teenagers before, so there wasn’t any difference in their looks.
Besides the change in hair and eye color- along with the fact that they were now one being.
The other thing that changed was the constant flaming sanguineous aura that was currently engulfing them. They had a toothy smile on their face as they showed their sharp fangs, making them look intimidating at first glance.
Felix could feel that his knees were getting weak due to the sanguineous aura pressure, but the moment the aura tried to infiltrate his body, a roar came from Felix’s body which pushed the nearby fused twins as a puzzled expression appeared on their face:
“Hmm?”
Felix grasped his left side of the face as his left eye started to glow with the same sanguineous energy that was coming from the twin’s body, his strength wasn’t regenerating, but his power was increasing, and Felix’s energy levels were at the same level as before, but his strength was surging upwards slowly.
Felix’s face showed that he wasn’t in the right state of mind, but the fused twins had a worse expression on their face as they clutched their chest. Feeling something wasn’t right there.
“What are you??”
The twins asked in a double-layered voice as they tried to regain their breath. Somehow their energy was stolen by Felix even though he hadn’t created an empathetic link with them.
Crunching sounds came from the inside of Felix’s body as he continued to grasp at his left side of the face then shouted:
“RARGHHHHHHH!”
Felix’s eyes turned fully white as he lost control of his body and started rampaging around, making the fused twins take a few steps backward, creating space between them and Felix before glancing towards Marshallo with a smile on their lips.
“It seems that your backoff has somehow gone insane.”
The twins didn’t know what was currently happening to Felix, but they were happy he was taken out of the picture for the moment. Taking care of Marshallo was their main priority, and they would be rewarded heavily for taking the head of the ”revolutionary leader”.
The royals knew about Marshallo’s ambitions but considering they would also end up losing quite a lot if they engaged him, they only did things that didn’t go below his endurance point. Creating a situation where they could coexist.
Of course, if either side became weaker, the other one would do their utmost to kill.
However, before the twins could launch their attack on Marshallo, Felix’s berserk body appeared in front of them as it started to engage them in close melee combat.
The twins frowned as Felix’s fist grazed their face leaving a bleeding line there.
“His speed and strength increased… but his aura is the same?”
The twins weren’t sure what was going with Felix, but it seemed his body was still keen on protecting Marshallo even though his consciousness wasn’t in it.
“You are certainly annoying. I will give you that. But you shouldn’t think that you can fight me in my current form!”
Before the twins could continue their monologue, another fist shot directly towards their faces. Which they actually caught as they sneered, then blasted Felix point-blank with a purple blast of energy, throwing him away. But not doing any damage to him, which made the twins rise their eyebrows.
Felix’s body skidded across the arena floor before stopping by itself as it grasped an arena tile to stop himself at the edge.
Marshallo tried to approach him but decided against it. Considering his current state may not be able to distinguish friend from foe.
Felix’s body spun as he became a torpedo that launched itself directly towards the twins which weren’t able to dodge in time. However, they stood still as Felix’s fist hit them in the face, not even making them flinch.
Suddenly they uppercut Felix in the jaw, throwing him into the air and launching a cutting wave of air towards which hit him directly in the chest, making blood flow freely from there as his organs became visible, his heart beating in his chest along with the lungs and ribcage.
Felix’s body twitched as the hole that was opened in his chest closed in a few seconds and he appeared directly near the twins.
However, the twins immediately lowered their hands near their waist as they unleashed a purple-red energy aura that pushed Felix back, making him skid on the arena floor again, but this time around, the twins decided to follow as they dashed towards Felix’s flying body, hitting it in the head, and embedding it onto the arena floor, creating a Felix shaped crater in it.
Then the twins floated into the air as they put their hands together to create a giant ball of red energy above their head. In a few seconds, the ball consolidated, and they were ready to throw it onto Felix, making sure it would engulf the arena as well so they would fish Marshallo out of his hiding.
However, a small yellow energy blast entered the giant star of death that was above the twin’s head, destabilizing it and making it explode prematurely. catching the twins off guard and making them injure themselves.
The twins shook their fused body as they glared at their surroundings, but they couldn’t find Felix nor Marshallo anywhere as the arena below them exploded into a gigantic firework show that engulfed them.
“Where could they have run to?”
The twins didn’t want to play hide and seek with them. They would be at a disadvantage if the duo regained their strength.
Felix’s body was on Marshallo’s back as he hid between spaces while observing what the twins were up to. He made sure Felix stood well on his back as he didn’t want to lose him in the spatial crevice they were hiding in.
Inside Felix’s consciousness, his soul body was floating in a sea of red as countless voices tried to wake him up from his unconscious state, they weren’t voices he knew nor heard before, but from their tones of voice, they seemed well-intentioned.
Felix’s soul eyes started to twitch as he opened them slowly. He found himself floating in the red sea which puzzled him, he was fighting the fused twins, where did he land to?
But his confusion didn’t last long as he realized he was in his mental space, he was pretty familiar with it, but he didn’t remember him having a red sea in it.
“What is this thing?”
Felix put his hands a little bit deeper into the sea and realized his soul body was currently absorbing this red energy. If he remembered correctly this was the royal bloodline of Marshallo’s race. But he wasn’t sure why he acquired it after some of the twin’s aura entered his body.
His ability worked by eating bodies. Unless his ability had evolved, and it now had new criteria for him to acquire abilities?
However, he didn’t need to be inside here at this point as he needed to take care of Marshallo, he knew that his regained energy was only around 30%, and the twins new fused body might be able to deal with him even if he was around 90%, they were now rather strong. But if they teamed up against them, they would be the ones to win.
But as he tried to leave the mental space, he realized that he was unable to. Red tentacles grasped on his soul from the sea as he tried to leave his unconsciousness, which annoyed Felix greatly.
What the hell was this red thing thinking it was doing?
Felix unleashed his soul power, trying to absorb the red energy quickly into his soul. But he literally felt that he was trying to drink water from the sea with a straw in his attempts to quickly get rid of his bindings.
This wasn’t a good thing as this type of absorption needed time, and it couldn’t be rushed, making Marshallo have to fight on his own until he absorbed enough of this energy.
Marshallo glanced towards Felix’s now unconscious body as he frowned. He couldn’t move from his current position as the twins would be able to find him, he wasn’t really proficient in stealth and the spatial waves he would unleash when he left the space crevice would alert the twins immediately.
In the end, he would still have to fight the twins as they would scan the area until they found his location, but for now, he would do his best to restore his energy to his peak state and wait until Felix recovered his consciousness. At this point, Marshallo hoped he would be lucky and they wouldn’t find him that quickly, atleast he needed to recover his full power, and as for Felix, he would be able to protect him until he woke up.
