Chapter 39 Someone more abnormal
Xue Ren"s vampiric aura made his body to get many times tougher. As his blood boiled, Xue Ren extended his arm to catch her sword. As he caught it, his whole arm got cut several times by unknown power, but Xue Ren felt a familiar sensation from this force.
And in order to feel it more, he had to one simple thing - push forward! Opening his eyes, he released his magic as he tried to attack with his other hand! But, the sword that he was holding suddenly disappeared!
"What?"
And appeared in Duan Qiu hand once again as she swung it down! But Xue Ren quickly dodged to the side. His Starlight Movement technique was at level 2 which was really fast. Zhi Shendra who has given this technique to him is at level 3 and it"s enough to roam freely in Umanu Continent. With his knowledge and speed, he has gained quite a good status. So it"s easily to imagine Xue Ren"s speed who has been at level 2 for a while!
Also, young man feels like soon, he is going to break into another level, thus, his speed is truly at higher level than prodigies! Anyway, Duan Qiu wasn"t slow either! Xue Ren had to focus while dodging her sword.
Even though he dodged, his body still got a few cuts, but it wasn"t problem. It"s actually what he wanted! Of course, Xue Ren isn"t m.a.s.o.c.h.i.s.t. The more she attacks with this unknown power, the more he can feel it!
Little Red Sword Demoness! She attacked faster and faster, but he dodged and dodged! His every move was elegant with head high! Right now, the only thing that didn"t suit Xue Ren were his clothes! The dominating air around him as if looking down and his red eyes glowing at her!
The young man was the third person to have cuts all over the body! But it was completely meaningless to him! He put his hand on his mouth and soon...
Ssssss! His wounds started healing... he was drinking the blood of mythical beast! Those cuts weren"t serious to begin with and with this blood, he could easily heal. Then, inwardly he asked...
"Superbia, she uses spirit power, right?"
"Correct."
"So one can use spirit externally..."
"Naturally."
"Hmm, so it"s spirit." he said it casually, but such casual voice made Duan Qiu s.h.i.+ver.
"You know about spirit power?" Duan Qiu asked as she took several steps back!
But Xue Ren didn"t care about her as he began another questioning...
"Since I also have your dark energy, I am going to use it."
"..."
Xue Ren arms started burning. Fire arms! But fire this time was different as he added dark energy. Fire had dark thick outlines and was burning furiously! With those arms, it was his time to jump at her!
But Duan Qiu already has prepared her technique! Her red sword s.h.i.+ned with mysterious gray light and she swung it down as she shouted "Sever!"
The enormous sword slash left her sword as it went towards him! Xue Ren only extended his arms as he intercepted it. Creating an explosion, he stood strong still and was even slowly moving forward... The fire that was covered with dark energy was slowly destroying her sword slash as if eating...
Sin of Pride who was watching this inwardly thought...
"Mere peasant spirit dares to try take us down?"
She was talking about sword"s spirit. The truth is that Duan Qiu sword was intelligent living being! This sword has awakened three years ago and it was moment where Duan Qiu has learned about spirit power and coveted for strength. But humans from Umanu Continent are completely oblivious to spirit power. And with sword guidance, she has grown too fast with her magic and spirit!
But now, she has met someone who is even more abnormal than her! Of course, Duan Qiu didn"t know that Xue Ren was abnormal reincarnator! She believes that Xue Ren is someone who has been born with inheritance just like her!
When young man destroyed her slash, she prepared herself for another attack! Appearing next to her, Xue Ren punched, but Duan Qiu already predicted this! Her sword cut deeper this time as she already started her magic release! Her spirit also got stronger, but the next several slashes that should"ve cut his body got destroyed!
Sparks! Sparks that were coming from his fire arms had defended him against her spirit slashes! With smile, he said...
"I don"t think this little trick of yours is going to work from now on."
Di Xun who was watching from afar clenched her both little fists as she cheered! When she saw that usual slashes haven"t appeared, she cheered even louder!
"Yes!"
Di Shui who saw that also smiled! But he was even more happy to know that his sister has met strong man. Seeing her this happy was even better. Of course, Xue Ren strength has surprised him as well just like others who were watching!
"Xie Tao, do you think we should prepare our s.p.a.ce Rings?"
"It"s not like we have to prepare for something like taking out rings."
"Read the mood, you idiot!"
"Eh... it"s not our territory so we aren"t going to get punished. I think."
Hearing them talking, Di Shui turned to Xie Tao as he asked...
"Why didn"t you try to kill us? I don"t believe that your Riveriam City has changed this much..."
"It"s orders from higher-ups."
"Elders?"
And now, it was time for Di Xun to interrupt! Word "Elders" was on her mind for a while after all.
"Why didn"t your elders come here?"
"..." Xie Tao didn"t say anything for a while. He remembered that the usual hall that was filled with elders who always sat on their chairs like kings was void of most of them. Even his father wasn"t here. So Xie Tao believed that they already have gone here...
"I don"t know. I thought they had come here already."
"If they had come here, then they would tell their orders here, idiot." Miss Gu chimed in which made Xie Tao a bit embarra.s.sed...
