?
Calamity reached out his hand forward, and more arms started to sprout from his palm, over and over again, and he did the same with his left arm.
The chaos of limbs continued to grow until he was completely engulfed in a writhing mass of appendages.
With random mess, Calamity's limbs flailed wildly in every direction, causing destruction and panic wherever they landed.
Adam weaved through the flailing limbs, using every bit of flexibility in his body to dodge the chaos.
The fingers of the appendages were long and thin, reaching out like tentacles towards Adam as they tried to grab a hold of him.
A few fingers were close, barely scratching his skin and clothes.
'His level of Kiryoku is insane as well!' Calamity had to admit. 'I am also using Kiryoku to predict his moves, but he moves before I do. It only means his Kiryoku is higher than mine!'
It made him stunned.
He couldn't believe that Adam was able to grow strong to such an extent under everyone's noses. It only meant that he was hiding himself from the public eye to hide his insane growth.
Calamity's eyes narrowed, and he cut off his extended limbs.
The extended limbs fell to the ground and turned into a pool of disgusting blood with a sickening squelch that flowed down the pavement-covered street.
Then, hundreds of arms sprouted from his right arm, writhing around his arm and contorting in unnatural ways. It was like those arms didn't have any bones, causing them to move in a fluid and grotesque manner.
Soon, his right arm looked huge and muscular, dwarfing the rest of his body.
The wind circled around the arm, creating a deafening howling noise that could be heard for miles.
"Per Du Mon De Su!" Calamity screamed and jumped towards Adam.
When he punched his grotesque arm forward, the twisting of his muscles created a wind that whirled with a force that was so strong it shattered all the windows of the crimson castle.
The beautiful, eight-petaled wings sprouted from Adam's back and shielded him from the grotesque arm, but still, the shockwave of the punch went straight through.
"Argh!" Adam coughed out in pain.
The shockwave smashed through his body and traversed across the streets until it finally crashed into a building at the end of the street.
The building got smashed into pieces and got flung across the city.
All the Originals watched as the building flew across the city and landed on top of a roof of a medium-sized restaurant that crumbled under its weight.
The destruction was scary and massive.
Raquel got thrown into an air and crashed into a wall, but she just wiped the blood off her lips and walked back to the balcony.
She looked palefaced, but her gaze stayed cold, and she sat back down.
A distance away, Otis shielded his family from the shockwave, which wasn't as strong as near the fight but still strong enough to send everyone into a panic.
"The streets are not safe," Agnes said in worry.
"We should get on the roof of the Observatory building!" A man shouted among the Originals. "It's built from moon rock and should be the most durable building in the city!"
"Otis?" Agnes looked at her husband.
"That man is right. It's also the tallest building in the city, so we could see the fight from there..."
Otis said and immediately headed in that direction, with his family following closely after him.
Back at the fight, Adam wiped the blood off his lips and lifted his sword high.
"You shielded your innards with your Kraft." Calamity chuckled. "A difficult technique to learn. If you do it wrong, you might accidentally crush your heart."
'That attack was designed to attack my insides. It's like Chi Strike, but far more powerful.' Adam thought with cold sweat falling off his face.
"Well, let's see if it was a fluke." Calamity did the same with his right arm and created a whirlwind of wind around his arm.
Adam stabbed the ground with his sword and shot his eight-petaled wings forward. They stabbed through the air like javelins and headed straight at Calamity.
"Armageddon Smash!" Calamity punched into the eight-petaled wings and created another shockwave that crashed into Adam.
The shockwave sent him flying, and his body smashed through a nearby building like a cannonball.
"No!" Raquel screamed.
"Oh?" Calamity raised his gaze towards the balcony and grinned. "A fangirl of yours? That's adorable."
He then aimed his overgrown arm towards the balcony and said, "Goodbye~"
Raquel spread her arms around and said. "Mother, I will join you."
The wind whirled around his arm, and as his attack was about to strike, a greatsword came from nowhere and stabbed into the grotesque arm.
"Ngh?" Calamity frowned and turned his gaze to the left, just in time to see Adam flying towards him.
"Push!" Adam controlled the greatsword so that it would stab deeper and deeper into the flesh.
Calamity pulled the greatsword off his arm and flung it away into the air.
The greatsword flew across the city of Sevenfold and stabbed into the ground near the front
gate.
The guard spat out his cigarette, put his hand on the hilt of his sword, and looked around in
shock.
"Where the hell did this sword come from?!"
...
At the roof of the Observatory building.
Otis opened the door and ran to the edge of the building. There he had a perfect view of the fight that was happening in the distance.
Agnes and her children came also, following them more and more Originals came to watch.
"Who is winning?" Agnes asked.
"I don't know," Otis answered hesitantly. "However, Adam is the first person to survive this long against him. He might actually have a chance!"
Otis' oldest son held his little sister's hand, and they all held their breath in anticipation.
Hope.
A rare thing in their daily lives, but at this moment, it was all they had.
...
"Whoo, whoo..." Adam kneeled on the ground, panting heavily as he looked at his health bar
in front of him.
[Adam - HP: 925/1500]
'I am now under disadvantage.'
He then looked over to Calamity, who was standing tall and mighty, his grotesque right arm growing thinner and appearing longer than before.
[Calamity - HP: 995/1650]
"You're panting already? Not much of a stamina man, huh." Calamity chuckled. "That won't
do~"
Adam shook his head and stood back up.
'It's not my stamina. This is all about mental warfare.' Adam wiped the sweat off his brows.
'I've had to overuse my Kiryoku. Otherwise, I would be dead already!'
All of Calamity's attacks had been lethal and extremely dangerous.
Without Kiryoku, he would've already been hit and killed.
"If this is all you can do, this fight will end sooner than later!" Calamity grinned and lunged
straight at him.
With a twist of his muscles, his grotesque punch moved at an incredible speed.
Adam gritted his teeth, lifted his arm, and punched against the grotesque punch.
CRACK!
The ground broke under them!
Spurt!
Adam's muscles swelled with power, and his veins popped out, bleeding profusely!
"Heh!"
Calamity smirked, and his arm grew one more time. It gave him enough strength to just punch
through Adam's fist.
Adam's arm broke like a twig, turning bruised and twisted!
Raquel's eyes widened in fear. "No..."
However, Adam then planted his feet back on the ground and swung his left fist across
Calamity's face.
The blood spewed out of his mouth and knocked a few teeth out.
"I won't lose!" Adam screamed.
...
"Yes, beat him!" Otis trembled in tension as he watched the brutal fight unfold before him.
The rest of the Originals were also cheering. Not a single person was cheering for Calamity.
Not a single one. "Please..." Agnes put her hands together. "Win!"
