Reborn To Become A Heavenly Serpent - Chapter 60
*swoosh*
*Tang* *Tang* *Tang!!!*
Soft wind noises and accompanied with it was a plastic pole being flung around. Hitting against the ground as it was blown away within this perspective.
A lone building with a swaying flag stretched on the side.
Standing in the middle with no other structures all around. Well, it’s not that you can see it within this foggy area.
Nevertheless, it was quite a sturdy building since it was able to survive after all of those attacks. Though, it did leave some marks and scratches all around. Tattered to be more precise.
*Tap!* *Clang!*
A muffled noise was heard.
Zooming about to the top of the building. An old man in a simple jacket could be seen sitting there with his legs crossed. A jug of wine in his right hand with a long sword on the other hand.
His eyes were hidden under the yellow glasses with his shabby grey pant signaling the look of simplicity below. Not that rich nor not that poor.
*Puha!*
” Hahaha! It tasted so good!”
He laughed…
Though hidden under that glasses was a pair of eyes that scanned throughout the area like a saber. Shifted about continuously without stopping…
Moments later…
He took another sip and with another pat to his thɨġh again.
“Puha!!! ”
He breathed out like a drunkard.
” Hey hey, little miss. It’s not fun if I am the one being targeted first. How about you dispel this fog for me? and then we can have a fair fight?”
He grinned as he shifted his gaze to his right side.
The V line collar shape on her neck… revealing some of the plums and added in with a motionless look on her face. Alluring one must say and yet cold.
” … ”
*swoosh*
But what responded was nothing more but the wind. A gush of dust rippled in between with his heart tensed.
‘Somethings not right… ‘
He secretly thought as a bead of sweat slowly slid down from his forehead.
*Grip!*
His sword was clasped tightly with his eyes glaring towards her.
‘ What’s with her… she seems a bit different from before. ‘
What was he talking about?. Something different about Saya?.
Well, to be more precise. It was not Saya nor Hiro that was controlling that body. It was something else… an entity that shouldn’t exist within this realm of creation.
‘ This aura is different?… she’s not the one from before?! just what is happening here!’
His eyes tightened in worries.
But then…
” Hahaha!… Little miss! You sure do have a lot of secrets, don’t you?. ”
He laughed yet again. Standing up from sitting, he carelessly took another sip of the wine in an easy-going manner.
His tall figure draped over with the slender black coat behind. Added in with his sharp aura enveloping his whole body like a peerless blade. A sword without a cover… standing still like a mountain that can slash the world.
*chug!* *chug!* *chug!*
“Hahaha… you sure gave me a lot of face by letting me finish my drink”
He said as he tossed the jug towards the ground. And with that…
*BOOM!*
His breath deepened in a flash!. Holding his sword with one hand as he held it horizontally.
*swoosh!*
Saya suddenly appeared in front of him. Punching away with her right fist as the air rioted all around.
“Humph!”
He swung down his sword in response. Though deep within, he was aware of the physical gap between them.
*BOOM!*
“Tch shit!… ”
He hurriedly tried stabilizing himself in mid-air as in the next instant he leaned his sword to the side.
*BOOM!*
Surprisingly it collided with a fist yet again. It was Saya’s fist! as her figure appeared like an illusion beside him.
” Hahaha, little miss. This is not such a smart move. Our fight will attract my compatriots to react and we can easily suppress you when all of us are gathered together… ”
Kai grinned happily as he continuously slashed his sword.
Seeing his attack, Saya simply blasted back a storm of fists coated in red energy.
Colliding against the sharp sword without any hesitation.
*BOOM!* *BOOM!* *BOOM!*
‘ This is bad… she is trying to get rid of me first!!!’
His thoughts were running fast as he continued to swing his sword like a madman. Each stroke was extremely deadly where all of them were directed to her weak point.
One wrong mistake then a body riddled with holes might come off as the result. Though, it was pretty much useless. He alone can do nothing towards her.
Suddenly!
‘shit!!’
He was caught off guard with his eyes widened in shock.
*BOOM!*
His body was blasted back with a punch. Propelled away like a bullet as he hit the ground and slid across the area. Rubbles and dust were tossed upward along the way.
” Damn it hey!!!… one punch alone almost crippled me in half!”
His body stopped. With a long gully on the front…
*splurts*
He coughed out a mouthful of blood as he struggled to stand up once again. This might be it for him.
A visible dent could be seen on his left shoulder with bloody marks all around it. The clothes were torn in lines. Revealing the scary wound with those open flesh dangling below.
” Hey, you guys!!! come quick!!!!! I can’t deal with her alone!!!!”
“Come now or else I will die!!!!”
He hurriedly shouted as he got back into a fighting stance. Not much vigor from before. His face was deathly pale with his breathing ragged.
Not even an instant was spared. Saya’s figure abruptly emerged yet again in front of him.
*BOOM!* *BOOM!* *BOOM!*
Blasting those torrent of punches without holding back as the earth below his foot was caved in like a bowl.
His half-broken body was slammed downward. Mercilessly pounded like tofu being smashed against a moving truck.
Though, his very last bit of will persisted arrogantly. Parrying those punches with his sword gripped tightly. Such immovable will!… the title divine was worthy of him to take upon.
His act of helplessness didn’t last long as soon enough his body was blasted away like a flying kite.
*BOOM*
“Arghh!!! ”
Shoved into the earth with his body fully covered in blood.
He plopped flat with his gaze facing upward. One glance, some might even guess of him as a corpse already. Luckily enough, his ċhėst was still moving. Gasping those air with his broken ribs.
” Hahaha, what a pity!… Though dying in your hand doesn’t sound that bad. ”
*cough* *cough* *cough*
He coughed out blood like a fountain. He couldn’t feel his body any longer. All he could do now was use his mouth to speak away from imminent demise.
” It was short but I think I had put up quite a good fight, no?”
He smiled.
The glasses were no longer there. Revealing those hollowed-out eyes. Yes, his vision was starting to fade away bit by bit.
” A pity one must say… ”
Saya smiled as Hiro finally regained control of the body.
Some of you might be wondering. Where were the other divines?. The fight was more than long enough for them to arrive in time. Where were they?.
Well, this fog wasn’t that simple. This fog was meant to divide them. And the word divide was pressed the most as its main effect.
‘ The system sure is powerful. Creating a method right off the back and the effect was simply outrages’
Hiro couldn’t help but exclaim secretly inside his heart.
The system figured out a loophole inside the law concept. Which was “distance” among the combatants that were participating inside the suppression concept.
And thus, a simple method was used in a way that no one could think of. Area separation added in with the ever-changing direction inside this fog. Only the caster can move freely inside here…
Though this didn’t come off without any flaws on its own. The simplest way to solve this fog was to use an illusion breaker. But this also was taken into consideration from the system side.
The system had analyzed all of the divines to possess zero illusion-related skills. All of them only possessed physical skills.
Yes, this was a low-level illusion spell from Saya’s mind. And yet when it came into the system operation… it turned out into a horrifying large-scale spell. Horrible!…
The auto-battle mod was simply overpowered with its computing capability.
” Now then… You will be the first to die here”
She smiled… as she stabbed her hand into his ċhėst. Grabbing against the beating lump of meat with his gaze calmly glancing back at her.
“It was my weakness that cause this… ”
He muttered back in a hoarse voice.
“Indeed… ”
She chuckled.
” Farewell, little one. it was quite a joyful fight”
*Skragh!*
She crushed his heart. And with that… his eyes finally fell into a deep sleep.
The fall of the first divine.. Will this be the end of this fight? or will Hiro continue to hunt the rest of them?.
