Chapter 133 - 133: The Jungles Tribespeople [Part 3] (2/2)
An axe kick which was heading down at his head.
A grin appeared on the tribesman's face.
It was fast but visible, and its path was obvious. It could be blocked.
It took him a moment to widen his eyes as he realized that the sole of Gray's foot, which had been inches from his face, was now an inch away from it.
[Fast-forwad.]
Gray had fast forwarded the kick.
*WHAM!!!!!*
The kick, crashed into his face.
[Pause.]
But this time it didn't send him flying down.
His figure was suspended in the air.
'What just happened?' That was the one single thought the tribes man had.
But what he should have been worrying about, was what was about to happen now.
Gray grasped his hands together before slamming them down into the core of his shredded stomach.
*BAM!*
The impact was without a doubt powerful, yet despite that, the tribes man didn't move.
The other tribesmen who had been cheering observed with a look of surprise and confusion in their faces.
The surprise changed into anger as they that one of theirs was losing.
As Gray raised his arm to slam it down once again, a shadow loomed over his figure and he felt the hair on the back of his neck rise.
Gray glanced up, countless tribes men with their spears could be seen above him, drawing closer with every passing second.
[Unpause.]
He turned away from the tribesman he had just attacked. It's figure went plummeting towards the ground at high speeds.
As for light show coming from the tribes men above him. That was his biggest concern at the moment.
They mostly decided to attack at the same time.
Abilities of all kinds varied from their arsenal.
Some had their spears surrounded by wind, while others had sparks of lightning glowing around their spears.
One of them even had a shadow covering both their spear and part of their body. He was the one standing beside the tribes leader.
There was no room for Gray to dodge, he couldn't pause all of their spears as it exceeded the limit he could have paused at once.
He had barely any time, to think.
With cold sweat, dripping down his face and his eyes opened wide, he leapt at them.
Gray was slowly entering a state of complete focus as he did so.
The first and closest tribesman who was before him, thrust his electric spear towards him.
At that moment, he felt a chill go down his spine as he stared directly at Gray.
Following that, Gray kicked off of a platform, dodging the first tribes man in the process.
Another tribes man appeared from above, in the area he had kicked towards, so he kicked again, to the side, barely dodging it again.
*Swoosh*
Time seemed to slow down for Gray. His eyes rolled hastily left and right, searching for an opening in the formation.
He was surrounded.
*Clang!*
Their spears collided with one another as they thrust at Gray.
On top of one of their back's the muddy boots of a shoe. Gray had paused stepped onto their backs.
*SWOOSH!*
The muscles, on Gray's legs bulged out as he leapt towards the tribesmen leader.
He was almost within it. The 40-meter range which he would need to pause step successfully ahead of it.
He just needed to move a little further up.
He repeated what he did beneath, barely avoiding the barrage of tribes men who had leapt at him, by kicking off one platform onto another.
He had many close calls but he did was able to break through countless gaps in their disorganised formation.
Even if there was a countless number of them, with [Pause Step.], it was basically impossible to catch him.
'Just a little more' – He thought as the momentum carried him up.
Suddenly, something tugged at Gray's feet from beneath. As he glanced down, his pupils dilated.
A tribes mans hand gripping down tightly onto his ankle.
He was the only one from the countless tribesmen who had managed to Grab on to him.
A grin appeared on the tribesmen face from beneath his mask, as he swung his arm down with Gray in it's grasp.
Gray's figure went plummeting down as he threw him to where all the other tribesmen were landing.
But to his surprise, the moment he let go of Gray, Gray's figure remained suspended in the air in the same spot.
He didn't go plummeting down as he should have. He had paused himself.
He tried leaping off the back of his comrades to Grab Gray once more, but Gray got away as he unpaused himself and leapt onto a platform right after.
The tribes leader watched with an amused expression beneath his mask as Gray appeared ahead of him in the following instant.
A grin could be seen on Gray's face as he did it, he finally reached him.
