Chapter 98 Killing The Assassin With The Sobriquet No.1!
Chapter 98 Killing The Assassin With The Sobriquet No.1!
The assassin with the code name No.1 bit his thumb finger and then drew symbols on his forehead with his blood. Next, he began to chant a spell in traditional classic Oraa, Ogarian's official language that sounded somewhat like a combination of Latin, old Hebrew, and Greek. Meanwhile, the blood symbols over his forehead shone, making dazzling white light, and soon, he completed the spell as he shouted, "Come forth, My Soul Weapon!" In the next second, a long black pole-like weapon with the blade shape of a small hatchet on one side and a crescent moon shape blade appeared in his hands.
Seeing the black long weapon suddenly materializing in his opponent's hands, Bobby was mesmerized by the whole process as this was his first time witnessing the summoning of a soul weapon and he exclaimed, "Oh, it's a halberd!...." And then he muttered under his breath. "This's totally different from the way the Baldy summoned his earth elemental weapon."
"Yeah, totally, this is a soul weapon, and the other is a weapon specific to a particular element type, but this soul weapon can be used in any element. And be careful, he can still cast his previous three spells while wielding a soul weapon, which is the beauty of it." Cynthia explained as she laid over leisurely on a couch, showing him her most secret place.
"What the.....?" Bobby almost bled from his nose and resisted the spellbinding sight to behold, which he always wished he could behold the other days. It was now at an uncalled time and he couldn't believe what he was seeing. Then he reminded himself. "It's not the time. But hey, please stay like this for a bit longer... Oh, fuck this. Let me finish this fight already and came back to you, my babe."
Bobby then focused his attention on the Assassin and he held the katana with his right hand, he suddenly burned almost all the vampiric blood that remained inside his blood vessels and chanted a spell, making various hand seals and he shouted, "Ice Lotus Skill!" Just like before, an ice ball formed, shaped like a Lotus within a fraction of a second and he pulled out five petals from it using his left hand's finger and then he tagged the remaining part of the Lotus to his waist with his belt after it froze and the moment it touched the belt he could feel the coldness on his skin but it didn't harm him as even felt a sense of security from that coldness.
"Hmm, you seem like you are ready to go!" The Assassin with the sobriquet No.1 squatted down a bit, putting all of his power on his legs, and sprinted toward him.
Similarly, Bobby also used his ninja movement technique and flashed toward his opponent. Within a few seconds, the 450 yards gaped between them were covered and they hacked each other; one with a slightly curved Katana powered with Red-stone and the other with his black halberd.
An extremely terrifying concentration of red color origin chi appeared around the edge of the katana in Bobby's hand while three halos diagrams appeared just before the black halberd.
Boom!
Along with a loud booming sound, both of them were pushed backward, unsteadily from the impact of the very concentrated amount of the red origin chi and the three spells.
But more than 90% were canceled out during the contact, so less damage around the areas.
But the two were up to their feet and they ran toward each other at their fastest pace and struck each other with their weapon and it turned out they seemed to be equally matched. After hacking each other for five minutes straight, both of them felt the pain in their hands and they separated, making a gap as they panted heavily, gasping for air.
"Not bad! Let's turn this match a bit more exciting. Gravity Magnification, 2nd law, 5x magnified!" The Assassin No.1 yelped, and he pointed toward five spots around Bobby, and the next thing five diagrams appeared on the spot, making five gravity fields around Bobby. "It's really true what No.10 informs me about your speed being up to par with me…. Hmm, let's see if you can still keep up to that speed after this." Then he sprinted toward Bobby.
Seeing that, Bobby narrowed his eyes a bit, and he uttered softly in a voice he could only hear himself, "Oh, really, then let's see." He then shut his eyes focus his conscience inside his Dantian in his lower navel and the thing the white color fluid boiled as per his mental instruction as he cast the new version of the Lightning Cannon Skill, the first law, and white raging fused were send toward both his leg and he screamed in his head, "The Third Law of the Thunder Clap, Lightning steps!"
As the crescent-shaped blade at the tip of the black halberd was about to poke Bobby's eyes, with a sizzling sound like an electric, a white bolt appeared and Bobby was not there the next instant, avoiding the swift movement of the weapon.
Woosh woosh!
With the whirling sounds of friction from the wind a rapid spinnings lotus petal flew toward him from the back of the assassin, it was as if the assassin also had another eye on his back as he quickly dodged it easily and the two attacked each other with their weapons but this time, Bobby both used his lightning step and Ninja movement technique making him move faster than the earlier even he was still under the effect of the gravity amplification spell.
The only difference was that as Bobby gradually outpaced his opponent over time, and his katana speed also increased exponentially, he was gaining momentum on his side while the assassin, on the other hand, was more on the defensive side as he was more focused on defending the move from Bobby and thereby he was pushed back making various foot marked on the hard ground.
The assassin finally was about to lose his footing and the next katana strike from Bobby was about to chop his head off. "Hmph!" He snorted and shouted, "Earth spike!" With a tremor, a big gigantic spike rose from the ground and blocked the katana and also the multiple spikes made from earth elemental rose from the ground began to attack Bobby.
Bobby quickly stepped back as he easily dodged all the earth spikes, as if he was taking a stroll around his neighborhood on a nice evening.
Later, when Bobby was far away from him, he halted his unnecessary spells as it cost his mama chi and he announced. "You almost got me there. Now, let's go all out then."
Then he raised his black halberd high in the air and infused more and more Origin chi into it and he shouted, "Fusion of spells!"
In a flash, Bobby saw the three halo diagrams in front of the halberd slowly combining and finally forming a brand new halo with an even more intricate pattern, then merged into the black halberd, spreading various symbols throughout.
"This is my ultimate skill. Three fusion spells merge with my soul weapon. It'll last only for five minutes to be exact, but during this time I can now cast any of the three spells at the same time with just a thought and my agility, strength, and movement speed will be double times the earlier. And you are the first one to force me to use this skill. So get ready and use your strongest skill and I'll finish you within this time limit. If I fail, then anyway, I'll be out of Origin Chi soon. So, I'll die anyway." Assassin No.1 explained patiently.
"Oh, good to hear that. Then I'll kill you within that time then… What are you still waiting for? The clock is still ticking. Bring out everything you have and show me what you're made of."Bobby made a war cry and sprinted toward him.
From then on, they started attacking each other from time to time, first in melee, then in range, using their earth spike skills and the ice lotus petal, before they returned to the melee again. So they began attacking each other, changing their tactics now and then. This time, Assassin seemed to have the upper hand as he had surpassed Bobby either in speed or power with the energy contained within his weapons, and also this time, the use of the gravity spell and then to reverse gravity disrupted Bobby's course of attacks, breaking his momentum. Despite that, Bobby wisely used the ice lotus petals in his hand like ninja stars, mending his weakness from time to time.
As they continued, time took its course, and finally, a minute was left for the assassin for his current at that time, he halted his movement and raised up high in the air as his hands shook from time to time as the halberd gained weight gradually and stopped after it reached the top and hacked it down upon Bobby's head
Meanwhile, Bobby pondered in his head, thinking. "It's time I guess…. Time to end this. At least I have enough fun." then he grasped the handle of the katana with both his hands and raised up high in the air and used his signature sword strike, cutting down.
The two struck down their weapon and met in the air, only that this time, Bobby didn't even use the power within the red power stone in the katana, but the moment they met the contact, not a sound came out and they stood still.
Bobby was the first to react as he turned around and started taking a few steps and the katana in his hand also transformed back into the pair of sunglasses like before and he put it on.
After Bobby took his seventh step, the Assassin who was standing stiff like a tree, spoke, "How-did-you-do-it?" Blood spattered everywhere as his body split symmetrically from head to legs and the halbert was also split into two equal halves, all of which fell to the ground, spraying a quantity of blood everywhere.
