Earth's Greatest Magus

Chapter 885 Relentless

Chapter 885 Relentless

While the half-blood got their unique power from the mixed bloodline of humans with the Primordial Beasts, the Titans were said to originate from the descendants of one of the first humans.

Just like the creation of the ancient divine artifact, God was said to make one group of humans with the same concept.

Born with enhanced physical form that far surpassed any other human capabilities, the Titans were said to be one of the most respected humans. The top echelon of humanity, the king of kings.

Those were considered common sense and infallible facts of that time, until the invention of the Awakening scroll - when normal humans started to discover the key to the illustrious magus realm.

Since then, the era of the Titans began to decline and was replaced by the era of the magus.

Like all normal humans, the Titan had and was also born with a spirit core of their own. However, the innate spirit power that they had was drained by their divine body, causing almost all the descendants of the Titans unable to learn spells.

However a rare small number of them were able to touch and awaken their ancestral gift, allowing them to directly learn the law.

BAM!!!

The power of the [Law of Wrath] took control of Zetto's body and enhanced his capability tremendously. His already powerful physical ability increased even more, raising it to an astonishing degree.

At this time, the advantage Emery worked so hard to obtain gradually disappeared and he began to be pressured by his opponent.

In a matter of minutes, Emery had broken the last Tier 3 sword Magus Xion had given him, meaning that he only had his one savage blade to deal with the Titan's two Tier 5 axes.

As if turning to the personification of ferocity, Zetto seemed not to know mercy anymore as he relentlessly attacked and landed multiple hits on Emery. His blade was unable to hold both ferocious attacks and with it, the number of wounds on Emery's body increased, and blood covered large parts of his body as they bled.

The audience became frenzied to see the situation that unfolded in the arena.

In one corner of the arena stands, a girl with distinct red hair shouted loudly. "Roran! Do you have a Tier 5 sword?! Even a Tier 4 is okay! Just give him a weapon to use!"

On the other hand, the young Harlight who was the target of those words was also panicking. He was trying hard to swiftly search through his massive storage ring, for a weapon that could be used.

"Aaa, Roran, seriously?!! Anyone! Anyone have any sword to borrow?!"

BAM! Following the dull sound was the sight of Emery's body once again being flung across the air, as it was too hard to block both axe attacks.

Then suddenly, he thought of something that could possibly help him hold the second axe.

Emery swiftly took out a piece of black scale he got from Killgragah and held it on his left arm, using it like a buckler to stop Zetto's attacks.

BAM! BAM! BAM!

The hand holding the black scale trembled violently as the black scale withstood Zetto's axes and stopped the relentless attacks from reaching Emery's fleshly body.

However, even though the black scale was a very durable item, Emery could sense that it would crack and crumble under pressure if this continued. And because he never really had a chance to properly shape it as a shield, there wasn't a proper part for his hand to hold, causing him not to be able to hold it firmly and possibly accidentally let go.

"Aarrgghhh!!"

[Onslaught]

The Titan once again used his battle art, throwing a combination of multiple double axe techniques at him. Knowing that he wouldn't be able to block this one, Emery quickly cast [Blink] and disappeared.

Alas, the enraged Berserker did not seem to recognize the word give up as he just turned and continued charging towards Emery in his frenzied motion.

It was at this moment that Emery suddenly felt something tingling on his left arm. Shifting his gaze, to his complete surprise, he saw Twik start covering the black scale with his wooden body.

"Twik!!!"

Ku.. Ku.. kuangg

Even though he didn't know what his words meant, Emery could understand what the intent Twik wanted to convey.

'Use me', this was what he received from the intelligence creature, and with the current situation he got in hand, though reluctant to involve Twik in this fight, Emery was eventually forced to use his left arm that was covered to block Zetto's relentless, beast-like attacks.

Clankk!! Clankk!!

By the time Zetto's ax clashed against the black scale, Emery saw the little creature had completely covered the black scale.

Now, in his left hand, Emery had a bizarre combination of a shield between Twik's wooden body and Killgragah's black scale. It was a round shield and looked like it was made of plants, and not only was it able to withstand Zetto's attack, it attached firmly to his arm.

Dark sword in one hand and wooden shield in another, Emery began to launch his retaliation.

Clankk! Clankk!!

For the next dozen attacks, with the help, Twik provided, Emery was able to withstand the ferocious attack Zetto sent at him. There were some chips and scratches on the round shield, but it quickly disappeared over time. It turned out that Twik was able to regenerate and slowly regain parts of his body when lost.

Now that Emery finally had a method to block the Titan's secondary weapons, he managed to hold out against most of the attacks Zetto did, and even took advantage of the openings to send attacks with the sword.

The fierce battle between the two continued for more than 30 minutes, but there was still no clear sign of who the victor was.

At the moment, Zetto was akin to a tireless machine, he simply did not stop. Every blow and cut he received seemed to have no effect and only generated an even stronger wave of anger within him.

Emery even faintly felt that the other party's strength was getting stronger as time went on.

On the other hand, similar to his opponent, every part of Emery's body was boiling. All the deadly clashes only fed and gave rise to the primal urge of his transformation.

At this point, Emery had completely forgotten about his next, equally important match. The only thing he cared about was that he had to defeat the opponent standing in front of him no matter the cost.

Splllaaatt!! Spallaaattt!!

Sword and axes, both of them constantly finding ways to break through their respective defenses. Bodily flesh was cut open, exposing the muscles beneath and blood began to dye the arena floor a striking color.

With comparable weapons and skills, the fight suddenly turned into a competition between the Berserker's Indestructible Body and the Savage's Undecaying Flesh, the Titan's monstrous stamina against Emery's irregular spirit pool.

The audience were on the edge of their seats, as they continued to watch to see who would eventually triumph over the other.

Finally, after another thirty minutes of magnificent battle spectacle, the victor's shadow could be seen.

The Indestructible Body was hard to cut through, but with enough time, the impact of the dozens of superficial wounds that didn't heal overpowered heavy wounds that healed.

Zetto fell, his knees hitting the floor as his body finally couldn't hold on any longer. Even so, the Titan was still not willing to give up, as seen from his attempt to use his two axes as support to keep him standing.

On the other hand, even though Emery still raised his sword towards the Titan and his arm was still holding the wooden shield, his condition was in reality no better than his opponent's. He was not only gasping for air, his entire body felt it was completely crushed by all the hard blows. Moreover, he could tell his spirit pool was nearly empty.

But in the end, he was the last one standing and everyone in the audience cheered in awe of his victory.

The Berserker didn't admit defeat and only kneel in silence. However, seeing that the man was no longer able to stand up, the referee decided the result.

"Emery Ambrose Win!"

[Rank 10 - Emery Ambrose (9)]

The Savage Acolyte won against the Berserker, and not only that, he beat the latter in such an amazing fight.

Hearing the referee mention his name as the winner, Emery smiled and looked at his left hand.

As if the little wood plant knew that the fight was over, it slowly reformed back into Emery's arm, however, it threw out what was left of the dragon scale, multiple small pieces of the scales and a speck of black dust. It appears Twik consumes the scales and now it's no more.

The little creature sent a little message of remorse and Emery quickly said,

"Dont worry about it, You did good… You did really good"
