Chapter 355: Gotta Avenge

Are you sure about this, Miles? Coin asked as Miles was creeping towards the anthill he climbed not so long ago that almost killed him.

I am, Miles said in his mind. I wanted to kill that queen anyway. Now I have more reasons to do so.

It is still pinnacle-tier. It will not be easy. Coin warned with a worried tone.

It is never easy. Miles shook his head. At worst, I can run away.

Sure. Coin rolled his imaginary eyes.

Miles was super cautious and was using his energy to prevent sending signals to the hive with his footsteps. When he arrived at the tree where the ant was constantly hitting, he saw the battlefield that almost killed him. Of course, now, the tree was gone. The bird nest was nowhere to be seen either. Probably eaten by the ants after Miles ran away.

He looked at the hole where ants dug out from and gathered energy in his hand. It started to crack and its shade turned to purple. When he released it, it started to create a rhythm. The weird thing was, the lightning was never dying. It was sucking energy from the atmosphere to go on endlessly. It sounded as if a giant in the hole was clapping. He put on his ultimate armor and started to wait.

What if other ants come too? Coin asked. Miles was planning to use this technique to lure out the queen ant, but it wasnt certain for it to be alone.

They will not. Trust me. Miles reassured Coin as he waited from a vantage point where he could run off anytime. Of course, there was no guarantee for the queen to be alone. He needed to be ready to bolt away anytime.

Soon, a head appeared in his vision. The creature had a dark-purple exoskeleton. It had six legs; each with three joints. Its large head with compound eyes, elbowed antennae, and powerful jaw looked menace, but what was worrying Miles most was the power of lightning it could muster.

Here we go. He said and gathered wind energy in his arm. He changed the characteristic of his energy to sticky, and a leash of wind flew towards the ant. The unexpecting ant was able to dodge the sudden attack as it crouched. The attack instead embedded itself in the wall behind it. The wind leash was flowing constantly although it missed the ant, it was still attracting its attention.

Miles didnt panic and created another attack with his other hand. This time five claws turned into five blades and flew towards the queen. It was Makwas mothers attack and over the week, Miles mastered the move. The five blades cut the air and arrived at the queen. The latter was able to dodge two, but three of them hit it on the hard exoskeleton. Despite the power the blades were carrying, they failed to injure the queen, but Miles achieved his goal.

He used the leash he was still holding and yanked himself towards the wall it was embedded in. While flying towards the queen, the claws in his right hand shone with energy. Miles gathered all the wind energy and swung his claw as hard as he could. Water element mixed with wind and five fissures cut the air and hit the queen on the head. The orb he found in the humanoid creature was so strong.

The queen cried in pain as five bloody scars appeared on its head. The latter wanted to open a distance, but how could Miles let it go? He created a tornado with sticky characteristics and blasted it at the queen from point-blank. The tornado spun away from Miles and took the queen with it. Because of its stickiness, the queen couldnt get rid of it and spun inside it endlessly while the wind energy was cutting all over its body.

This is gold! Miles grinned and changed his energy to lightning. Purple currents flew in his arms as he gathered energy for the claw. He used the Makwas mothers attack, Wind Claws, but in a lightning element. Adding the power of water from the claw itself, the attack was even more deadly.

Because the queen was still spinning, it couldnt dodge, but feeling lightning, it gathered enough wits to escape. It covered its body with lightning and used all its power to spin in the opposite direction. The sticky energy that was holding it down broke apart with the force of the opposite spins and the tornado threw her away from its epicenter.

No, you dont! Miles saw it was getting free and charged with Frontal Rush but covered his feet with the lightning element for extra speed. He was faster than ever and was in front of the monster in no time at all. He pulled his fist back as his energy turned into purple current again. But this time, an orange sheen could be seen from within.

Viscount Percivals Mountain Fist!

The attack was even deadlier with the lightning element and hit the ant on the back. The steel exoskeleton was durable, but Miles still felt it cave in. The force of the attack and the boost from the lightning element wasnt something to scoff of. The ant was sent flying toward the cave wall.

SCREECH! It cried in an ear-deafening scream. Miles blocked his ears with energy as he dashed out of the hole. The lightning-covered ant was now chasing him with full force despite the beating it got. Miles jumped out of the hole and sent two slashes, one lightning one wind.

The ant dodged the wind and faced the lightning without even getting affected. It opened its mouth and attacked with a lightning ball. Miless pupils dilated as he remembered the attack. It was the same attack that almost killed him last time. He raised his two hands and took the attack head-on. The ball of lightning blasted on his open hands but in the next second, it vanished.

I know your secret, you bastard. Thanks for the refill! Miles mocked as he felt the energy filling his body.
