49 Up the ante (1/2)
The whirlwind raged on for several minutes. Nothing was spared that came into contact with it. There was no chance of survival.
Of course, that outcome is only predetermined, if you are not so abnormal like I am. Even though my body was looking horrible with many deep wounds all over, I still retained the ability to fight.The players could not believe their eyes as the saw me walking out of that spell. But after seeing my shape, they became motivated once more.
Sadly for them,I was done playing the nice guy.At first I was being thoughtful killing each and every player quickly. But sadly they did not show the same level of concern for me. So they surely won't mind if I fight cruelly now.
There was not any significant change in the number of players surrounding, so I just searched for the next target, to vent my frustrations on. After all, it was quite a strain to always act in a calculated fashion. Sometimes you just have to get rid of all the pent up stress.
My target was a young man, who looked at me full of pride and confidence. To prevent him from escaping I pierced his right food with my claws. He looked at me calmly with a smug grin on his face knowing that I would have to take more damage for killing just a single man. But my actual goal was not to kill him, it was about to send a message.
My fingernail penetrated the men over and over again but I did not aim for any life-threatening spot. He would have screamed continuously if I had not ripped his tongue out. So only a painful whimpering could be heard.The man's eyes grew wide in shock, as he looked at my calm face, as he was enduring a pain he never felt before. I would be way crueller if the bombardment of spells did not hurt me. In order to give him a real memorable goodbye, I will do something very special for him.
I lifted my left leg and launched it will all my might at his groin. For a moment, each and every player was looking at me with terror in their heart. A serious expression returned to their faces and they finally stopped all their antics. I had their full attention. Both sides knew that playtime was over.
As I removed my right leg, the mangled corpse finally fell over. Both sides started their attacks simultaneously, Iwas constantly on the move to avoid the spells, as I came closer I still got hit by some. I used my nails to grab one player and began to use him as a meatshield to storm forwards into more players.
They did not show any restraint, as they hit their comrade with magic. After the men had served his purpose, I just threw him aside. A man used a magic spell direct in front of me, without a shred of fear. He pierced my shoulder as I severed one arm from him. Finally someone strong appeared, in front of me.
Someone like him is true to my liking, he did not show any signs of hesitation or pain, even after losing an arm. In comparison to the others, he moved in as he prepared the next spell. I see he wants to deal as much damage as possible and the closer he gets the more likely he is able to pierce a vital spot.
He just made one misconception, he did not expect that I would throw his arm right back at his other arm. This distraction caused him to lose his focus for a split second, that period of time was enough for me to end his life by throwing several hair projectiles.
It is quite refreshing to fight against opponents with different approaches. Even if that means, that my body receives more and more wounds. Right now my regeneration can still keep up with it.
As long as they only use this level of coordination I still can pick off single targets with ease. I have to be extra careful if they start a spell that needs multiple casters. After all, I am not too sure, whether I would still be able to fight if something like this were to hit me again.
I approached my next target while dodging the wave of spells as best as I can. My opponent turned out to be one of the few female players. Looking at her face, a realisation hit me, it was ice magic girl that I had killed some time ago. Did she learn her lesson out of my fight with her?
She used her magic to try and stop my engage, but sadly I do not require a footing. My claws were enough to run ahead without any kind of worry. To counteract she launched a spell at my limbs to hinder my movement.Good, but not good enough yet, I used my velocity and ducked under the spell and slid on the ice until I was in front of her. Without letting her foster a new plan, I pierce her heart with a swift motion.
I just hope that I do not have to face her sister, my last fight against her was just won by a fluke. But if I get into that predicament I will have to resort to using my full strength without holding back.
