Chapter 191 (1/2)
Book 2, Chapter 48 – Are You Human?
Attendants brought Dawn her three itelass cases One of them amicably approached her “My Lady, will you need our authentication services? The Order's appraisers are very reliable”
“No need” Cloudhawk cut them off “We'll have them authenticated ourselves”
Dawn Polaris was not happy with his choice Hey, she said to herself, remember who the boss is here! Who said you could make decision?
Skycloud city was a martial place, and the demonhunters were a martial sort The street they called the Home of the Demomhunters had many rooht they would be fin places to test these relics out He had Dawn purchase them a two-hundred square old coin
They weren't looking for an appraiser Why get a training room?
Unaware of her skepticisht let's see”
Her pretty face scrunched up like he was speaking a foreign language
“What are you doing standing there like an idiot? After spending so much money don't you want to knohat they do?”
She gaped at him like he was an alien “Knohat? You don't mean this relics!”
“That's a dumbass question”
Her mind was veritably blown, so much she didn't respond to his insult Suddenly she was convinced he was crazy What auctioned relic could just be picked up and used? He was the dumbass!
Cloudhawk paid her shock no e shi+eld The battle-scarred item was fifty centimeters tall [1], black all over and made purely out of ht
On the inside of the shi+eld he saw runes that were typical for many relics He used what he'd learned to read out the name: “Concussion shi+eld”
“What a waste of time! You backwoods wastelander yokel, what do you know about relics?” Dawn glowered at the led shi+eld then offered a sneer full of e relic willy-nilly and use it? I don't knohether you're naïve or just stupid If you canwork than you can be my boss!”
“Whatever, I' the boss of sos out from under me” Cloudhawk turned around and looked at her “I only want you to treat me like an equal!”
Dawn Polaris ht on His wasn't a normal stare Cloudhawk's eyes were full of self-confidence and calm He was unique, but she wasn't sure what it was about him that made her feel that way
The inside of the buckler was fitting with a sort of sleeve Slipping one's left ared his arht His eyes swept around the training area and eventually landed on a training dummy nearby
These demons were specially made for demonhunters to help them practice their skills They were h to take several blows froh they were
Let's get this started
Cloudhawk started to run under Dawn's incredulous gaze As his speed picked up he held the buckler in front of him His eyes were closed, all of his focus on the shi+eld searching for its resonance – and then so unexpected happened
The buckler began to shi+ht
Cloudhawk slaht into the dummy, and when his shi+eld ht in visible ripples All the space around it warped as all of a sudden the roar of wind filled the training room
Bang!
Dawn's ears rang as a peel of thunder erupted Struck full on by the force of i dummy was blasted away It hit the wall then clattered to the floor covered in cracks The dent it left in the wall proved what sort of force was behind Cloudhawk's charge
In a real fight it didn't uts would be splashed all over the floor after a hit like that Believe it or not, this shoddy- looking beat up buckler was fully functional
Dawn Polaris stared at hih to fit an apple
“Well that was satisfying!” Cloudhawk trotted over, pulled off the shi+eld then handed it to her “Want to give it a go?”
She sed and looked over at the daed wall From the display she could tell this relic was the type that could manipulate both air and wind – precisely the kind of relics Daas skilled with In fact the mirror she used to protect herself used as called 'wind-type protection' It thickened the air into an invisible shell to ward of attacks
Although it was technically armor the concussion shi+eld could also attack So, surprisingly, it was a fine relic! Without saying another word she pulled the shi+eld onto her ar instead to walk over and stand in front of one of the dummies
