”Oh fuck me.” Will could not help but sigh in resignation.

”High defense, high speed, virtually immune to water type attacks, is a long-range creature. It's like it was designed to fight me! Fuck you Modus!”

The bird was not that large. Normally that would be a good thing but in this situation, it was a problem because it made for a much more difficult target to hit. For flying creatures, the smaller it is the more mobile it becomes.

As Will was busy cursing, the Warhawk stopped its flight and calmly positioned itself right above Will. Due to the fact that it was an intelligent creature, it was possible to show expressions just like a human being.

Disdain being one of them.

”This motherfu-” Before Will could continue, a massive fireball was hurled straight toward Will. Will ran straight ahead and dodged the searing sphere of doom. As he looked back he saw it explode and couldn't help but grimace. The fireball itself was much larger than the bird and seemed to materialize from nowhere.

Will had underestimated the strength of the fireball and was caught within the blast radius. He quickly mobilized a thin water membrane around his body. It managed to protect him from the intense heat but it did little to protect him from the force of the explosion.

Will flew back like a meteorite, till eventually, his body lost momentum. The Warhawk was happy with its 'greeting'. It believed the young Will would realize the futility of this battle and give up.

Due to the fact that this creature was used to hunting water type creatures, it was very sensitive to water type energy and it could sense it all around Will. This was one of the reasons why it was so confident.

Will was not going to sit back and take hits like a punching bag.

If you're not going to come to me, I'm going to come to you.
