Chapter 1020: Mockery Battle (2/2)
”S-Sure!” Flita made eye contact with Wrister, knowing very well that they couldn't intrude upon this fight. Just the sound of sea waves they were hearing caused them to tremble, knowing very well that the god they secretly worshipped daily to was about to unleash his wrath.
As the two retreated far back, Krune focused, noticing the Red Demon flash before him within a second, carrying a couple of human arms in its hands that it used like batons, smacking his legs.
Krune guarded with his sword, skidding on the ground for twenty meters from the impact as his sword bent out of shape. Before he could use the Demon Arms to amplify himself, it was damaged beyond use.
”Hmph!” He threw it on the ground and began to walk towards the Red Demon. For every step he took, the blood on the ground rippled with him as the center. Upon noticing that he wasn't dead with a single attack, the Red Demon smiled, swallowing the human hands it carried with it. ”Interesting.”
It then flashed before Krune, aiming a punch at his gut, watching in surprise when Krune evaded the attack.
Dreams of the Heart—Ocean Turbulence!
Active Ability—Cloud Whale!
Krune didn't summon his Cloud Whale this time, rather keeping it within himself, making use of its ability to generate air currents. With Ocean Turbulence, he overlaid all five crimson rings of his Ocean Heart into it, causing its power output to increase by five times.
He also fused Moving Ripple into it, raising his control of the air currents, causing it to react with the blood on the ground, causing the two mediums to mix to raise a blood vapor. This state allowed both his abilities to generate water and air currents to function the greatest.
With his speed raised to the limit, Krune reached a level where he was capable of withstanding the Red Demon's speed. And when it punched, he evaded, clenching his hand into a fist before slamming it into the opponent's chest.
His attack didn't even scratch the Red Demon, causing it to scoff in response, ”For all the show you put, you're weak.”
”You fuckface, don't boast if you can't even touch me,” Krune retorted, slamming a punch on the opponent's nose, causing it to bleed. Instantly, the Red Demon digested part of the human flesh it had consumed as it generated some miasma that it condensed in its nose, acting before it could be sucked into the battlefield by the mysterious force at effect in the place.
As its nose healed, it grinned, slamming a punch right into Krune's face, feeling the impact singe deep into its target. ”Trash, you can't even wound me.”
As it retracted its fist, grinning cunningly, it noticed Krune's smashed face convulse for a moment before it healed up, soon turning pristine. Grabbing the Red Demon's horns, Krune kneeled at its nose, causing a lot of blood to spill out in the process. ”You're no different, bastard.”
