Reborn As A God - Chapter 83
In the middle of a relatively unremarkable forest, a fierce battle was underway. A giant invisible protection array was set up to prevent any shockwaves from escaping.
The figure of Kyzdall was seen standing calmly in the middle of a small clearing, his hands were folded behind his back as he stood there looking kind of bored.
In the area surrounding him, a faint shadow of a figure kept flashing by between the trees as it circled Kyzdall waiting for an opportunity to show itself.
Kyzdall seemingly unbothered remained standing in his place with his hands behind his back, letting out a yawn, he brought his hand to cover his mouth. It was then that Josse’s figure suddenly flashed with unbelievable speed leaving behind her afterimages as she quickly appeared in front of him.
Throwing a fast punch towards Kyzdall’s face, letting a smirk, he moved his neck to the side effectively dodging the attack. Seeing that her attack has failed, Josse quickly wanted to retreat to safety.
“Where do you think you are going?” Grinning, Kyzdall threw a lightning-fast leg attack that connected with Josse’s stomach. Getting hit by the attack, her body flew back like an arrow set loose as she crashed with the trees in the edge of the small clearing.
” *cough* Argh…” coughing a mouthful of blood, Josse shook her head to get rid of the dizziness, as soon as she raised her eyes to look at the direction where Kyzdall should have been, the sound of something cutting through the wind made her instinctively dodge to the side.
Following the sound, Kyzdall’s foot came crashing down at the position Josse was in moments ago causing a deep crater in the ground.
Seeing the damage his one attack did when he did not even seem to be breaking any sweat made Josse gulp as she raised both of her hands to surrender while bitterly chuckling.
“Hehe, d-don’t be so rash master! That attack would’ve killed me if it connected! Why not tone it down a little bit?” She said as she continued to move back little by little.
Seeing that, Kyzdall’s face twisted into a dangerous-looking grin that made Josse have shivers down her spine.
“Wai-!”
Before she could finish what she wanted to say, Kyzdall’s figure disappeared from his place, quickly reappearing in front of her causing her eyes to widen in shock.
She then quickly crossed her arms in front of her face and clenched her teeth to block whatever attack was coming, the expected attack, however, came from the side as Kyzdall hit her straight in the ribs with his leg again effectively sending her flying like a doll with its strings cut.
Josse was not prepared for that when the attack connected with her side, the wind got knocked out of her lungs as she crashed into the other side of the clearing, the pain was unbearable.
She glanced down to look at her side, the place where she got hit turned blue as she could feel that her ribs were shattered.
“*Huff…huff…huff*” struggling to breathe, Josse’s vision blurred as she struggled to stand up.
It was then that her face suddenly changed to that of pleasant surprise, she could feel her body regenerating at an alarming rate, the bruise to her side quickly returned back to normal as her breathing became easier.
Not giving her any time to think about anything more, Kyzdall suddenly appeared by her other side, quickly sending out another leg attack to which she barely managed to block with both of her arms as she got sent flying in the air once again rendering both her arms useless.
“Stop overthinking, your opponent would not give you any time to think!” Loudly said the God of War.
With a woosh, his body appeared in the air once again hitting her in the back which sent her plummeting towards the ground.
*BOOOOOM*
As her body hit the ground, a huge crater was created at the impact, in the middle of it was Josse who kept coughing out blood. While her body was indeed regenerating and Kyzdall did not use any of his mana but only attacked her with his physical strength while holding back, it was still too much for her to handle as she passed out.
Seeing her limp collapsed body in the middle of the web like crater, Kyzdall gently floated down towards her, as he approached her unconscious figure, Josse’s body suddenly glowed a blinding reddish color as her speed soared to astonishing rates, stretching her palm into an attack, Josse aimed at Kyzdall’s side for the hope that she would at least land one hit!
Unfortunately for her, Kyzdall was unfazed, he smirked as he effortlessly grabbed her incoming palm attack.
“Next time if you want to make another sneak attack like this, you should pay better attention to your breathing.” He said with his hand holding Josse by the palm up in the air like a small child.
“Shit!” She cursed as she closed her eyes waiting for the finishing blow.
“Huh?” surprised, Josse felt her feet gently land on the ground, looking up Kyzdall smiled warmly at her as he gently patted her head.
“That was an excellent attack!” He said satisfied.
Unable to contain her emotions, Josse’s mouth curved upwards into a wide grin before she gave a deep bow to her master.
“Thank you, master!”
Nodding his head in satisfaction, Kyzdall slowly started walking away.
“Let’s go kiddo, enough physical training for today. You Earned It.”
Smiling wildly in happiness Josse quickly trotted after him, “Yes master! Are you finally going to teach me about mana?”
Chuckling Kyzdall replied, “Don’t get too c.o.c.ky little one. You are nowhere near the required level to control mana. For that, you first need to learn to control your body, mana comes after.”
“I’ll take your teachings to heart master!” Replied Josse with a resolute expression on her face, soon, soon she will be able to control mana!
