Chapter 308: David Vs Goliath (1/2)
Nightmare ” Let me give you credit , Shakuni of True Elites , noone has ever forced me to bring out the Overlord spear in a fight. You are a first ”.
Rudra ” Well , I hope your fighting skills don't disappoint the fancy weapon you have there ”.
Nightmare” Ohhh , you speak as if you know of its value .... Interesting , very interesting ”.
Rudra dashed in on Nightmare , who slammed the Overlord spear on the ground , a shockwave of air came rushing towards Rudra , which he had to jump to avoid.
Rudra came crashing down on nightmare from above , as both his swords clanged against Overlord spear , creating ripples and shockwaves. This time nightmare only had to move back three steps before he stabilized , however Rudra was fast , landing a kick right to his gut .
Now sent flying , nightmare crashed on the walls of the arena , taking a minor damage of -700 , Rudra understood one point , that his skills were superior to nightmare in close range fighting at this point. The opponents moves were decent , but they were a far cry from the expert level that one would expect .
Not wanting to give nightmare any breathing room , Rudra charged in again , however , the outcome this time was tragic for him.
Nightmare gritted his teeth and shouted ” ENOUGH ! ”.
As the Golden Dragon coiled on the Overlord spear now started to wriggle , opening it's eyes! Two blood red Ruby like gemstone eyes stared at Rudra .
Rudra was petrified on the spot , unable to move. He got the following system notification
System notification : You have looked into the eyes of an ancestral dragon , you have been affected by dragon's fear. Unable to move for 5 seconds
' WHAT!!! ' Rudra cursed in his mind , he was immobile and a open target for his opponents attacks .
Naturally nightmare showed Rudra no mercy , stabbing him at his vitals thrice , before giving him a kick of his own to send Rudra flying.
-36000! CRITICAL HIT
Rudra lost a third of his HP in this one move , adding to the little damage he had taken earlier he had lost about 40% of his total HP. His HP bar turning yellow as a result.
Rudra cursed in his mind , as he got back up facing nightmare again , however he was not pelted with attacks when he stood up , instead what he got was a psychological attack.
Nightmare , leisurely swinging his overlord spear said ” Monstrous speed , Monstrous strength , that's all I can in here expecting , however fighting with you for soo long iv understood that they are all lies. Anyone else would have taken about 80% HP bar damage from my previous move , however you are still standing with about 60% Hp left ... Monstrous net HP bar , terrific defense. And seeing how you are not even tired after going at such high intensity for soo long , I assume a terrifyingly high stamina stat as well. And if my assumption is not wrong .... All of them are equally distributed eh? Am I right or am I right? ”.
Rudra squinted his eyes , trying to mentain an aloof face , not to give anything away. He chose silence as his answer , however alarm bells were ringing in his mind , his opponent was too terrifying !
” Silence .... I see , how amusing , no wonder you chose the knight class. HAHAHAHA, i think I have you figured out , except for the part where I can't inspect you at all ... It's odd , how do you hide it? ”. Nightmare said.
Rudra gulped nervously , this guy was breathing down his neck , from his nonchalant attitude to him enjoying his time in this fight , everything about his demeanor shouted , you are no threat to me and that I have this match in the bag.
Rudra increasingly felt doubt over his chances at victory , and nightmare's moves did not make it easy for him to think otherwise.
