Chapter 68:The Finals (2/2)
”How is this a Natal Spirit?!”
Trax shouted in frustration when he once again saw himself in a perilous position.
Willing the 3rd Stream, it immediately materialized into something like a surfboard in which he stepped in before it took him up to the sky, dodging the stabs in the nick of time.
It then flew him away from me before it vanished and dropped him from it.
He landed lightly but sweat already lined the side of his face.
Looking at him, his previous calm expression was already nowhere to be seen. What replaced it was his disbelief that something like this could happen to him.
Even with his Spiritual Twin Phantom strengthening his overall stats, taking my attacks head-on was something he judged as not viable.
”Sorry, Trax but I won't hold back.”
He's really not just an ordinary Fused Spirit. Even with my slightly overwhelming advantage in stats, he still managed to dodge and escape from me.
Though I've already seen three of his Streams, he could actually use those again as long as he still has enough Spirit Energy reserves. Plus there were still two unknown supernatural powers he could use. Though I'm confident in winning, overconfidence will often lead to mistakes.
Willing my Spiritual Twin to move in concert with me, we made the same stance as we pounced towards the seemingly tensed Trax.
I haven't used the Blessing embedded to my new sword and I don't think I need to use it now. Maybe later when we're fighting the Invading Forces but in this competition, let's keep it light.
Seeing our approaching figures. Trax's eyes lit up as the two azure light shined from above him, it then turned to mini azure dragons whose illusory bodies were similar to that of raging waves.
Then three more azure lights indicating his three Streams shined and washed over him. Now, this is him going all out, using everything he has to defend.
Maybe if I managed to break him this time, the battle will be over.
But will it really be this simple?
Supplying Brute Energy to my Spiritual Twin, we filled our swords with my first Augmented Skill, Energy Explosion. Together with the enhancement that came from the passive provided by the System, it won't just be the same explosion from before.
Bang!
Boom!
Whoosh!
When our attacks met each other, various sounds were made as his azure-colored aura made from his 5 Streams of connection clashed against my swords which were covered by a dense amount of Spirit Energy as well as the Brute Energy concealed within the sword.
It created an explosion at the point of impact and due to that, a blinding light was made as the winds surrounding us were stirred.
Exclaims of surprises could be heard from the audience as the dust in the middle of the stage settled.
Standing there was me who wasn't injured at all except a small graze on my shoulders. Though his attack was really strong, it's truly not enough to defeat my current stats.
On the contrary, Trax was on his knees as he started breathing heavily. His clothes were in tatters as various wounds opened up around his body that were caused by the Energy Explosion.
”I can't accept this!”
He stood up and stirred the remaining Spirit Energy he had.
Projecting his 5 Streams again, the sky suddenly darkened as the light concentrated on him. His 5 Streams started to come together and combine themselves into one.
Is he trying to breakthrough at this moment?
Should I attack now or should I wait for him to finish?
Looking at his determined face not to lose against a Natal Spirit, I guess I'll let him try to breakthrough and see how I will fare against a new Transformed Spirit.
Ah. Why don't I try to breakthrough as well? You won't mind it, right? World's Will?
