Chapter 196: A Blessed Child(2) - The Negative Element (1/2)

'So this is his bloodline transformation? Hmmm…,' analyzed Jake.

He had heard rumors of the Loft family possessing a unique bloodline in their bodies.

However, very few of them could actually awaken the power.

It seemed like Kieran was part of these very few people.

”Is that the [White River Ant] bloodline?” asked Jake.

”Yes,” a soft, but thick voice came out of the transformed Kieran.

As Kieran spoke, a blob of water from the lake gathered on his hand.

'What a sad life?' sighed Jake.

*Shui!* *Shui!*

Immediately, Jake and Kaleyx dashed at Kieran.

Jake activated his [Lightning Charge], while Kaleyx simply imposed her dark-silver energy on her body, augmenting her body attributes.

Within a second, Jake got to Kieran and slashed his sword, '[Lightning + Ice Blade].'

His sword crackled in the air as it was blocked by Kieran's plated arm.

*Ding!*

However, Jake had already expected it.

He distanced himself from Kieran and allowed Kaleyx to fling one of her daggers at Kieran.

Of course, the dagger was blocked also, but, in the next moment, a crack appeared on where the dagger hit.

It turned out that it was the exact spot where Jake slashed his sword.

This interesting turn of events led to Kieran jumping away from his location as he examined his arm.

He found it hard to understand that a crack had appeared on his natural body armor.

Analyzing his mistake, Kieran spoke out in his usual cold tone, ”Your eye, isn't it? It pinpointed my weak spots.”

He had already noticed the unusual appearance of Jake's right eye and was quite sure that the crack was caused by one of the abilities of Jake's eye.

Listening to Kieran, Jake wasn't surprised that Kieran figured it out.

He materialized a [Sky Step] in front of him and used it to propel himself to Kieran's position, but Kieran was already expecting that.

”[Nero Bullet],” announced Kieran.

The large of water on his hand had concentrated to the maximum. So, he shot out tiny parts of it at his enemies.

His [Nero Bullets] were calculated as they tried to stop Jake in his path, but Kaleyx was there to cover him.

Using one of her skills, [Deflect], Kaleyx bravely touched the bullets and sent them away with just her index finger.

This allowed Jake to blitz past the bullets and invade Kieran's circle.

His eyes met Kieran's eyes but he was not disturbed.

Fluidly, he materialized another [Sky Step] beside Kieran.

Using it to twirl around him and landed a side slash with his sword which was already fully encased with the destructive energy of his dual-element, '[Revised Limitless Slash]'

His attack vaporized all the surrounding water as it met with Kieran's hard shell-like skin.

*Clang!*

The sound that was heard next was proof that Jake didn't pierce Kieran's skin.
