Chapter 269: Finishing the Quest (1/2)
SWOOSH!!
”Kyran!!”, Rex glance back at Kyran in panic.
The long sharp thorn flew past him as it went straight towards Kyran, its movement is fast and even Delta who is just beside Kyran won't be able to reach him first before the thorn.
Upon hearing Rex's shout, Kyran looks in front before his breathing stopped.
He saw a bone-like thorn flying towards him, the thorn was lightning fast as even he can only manage to raise his hands slightly in response.
But then, something whispers to him.
Kyran widened his eyes as the dark mana inside of him moved on its own.
With the thorn going at him with fast movement, the dark mana moves even faster as it gathers on Kyran's hand.
The dark mana reaches Kyran's hands at the same time as the thorn arrives.
Black energy envelopes Kyran's hands as the tip of the thorn arrives in between his hands, the dark mana then slightly stretches towards the thorn and engulfs it.
Kyran himself can only see the dark mana for a fraction of a second before suddenly,
STAB!!
BOOM!
The thorn penetrates his left chest sending him crashing away with the momentum before stabbing him on the cave wall behind him.
From Rex and Adhara's perspective,
They saw Delta leaped trying to reach Kyan but even with the white force enhancement the thorn reaches Kyran first and stabbed him.
ROAR!!
”Adhara! Go to Kyran first!”, Rex shouted hurriedly.
After shouting that to Adhara, Rex turns towards the raven who is now also looking at him menacingly with immense bloodlust.
Its eyes have a spark of hatred as the raven moves left and right like a prowling predator.
The blood around its body makes the raven looks much menacing than before.
Rex looks at the raven's strong front without any change in expression, he can feel that the raven is already started to weaken because of the loss of blood.
He then waves his sword before he went into his battle stance.
Although Rex's yellow barrier manages to block most of the thorns, some of them manage to slip through as one thorn stabbed Rex's left shoulder.
But that is not enough to stop Rex, ”I had enough!”
BOOM!!
Black lightning exploded from Rex's body as the moonlight energy gathered to him.
<Activating Pure Brace of Moonlight>
<The user's stats increased by 25
Rex also activates his yellow force again as his stats increased once more, the overwhelming aura that radiates from his body makes the raven flinch.
”Now die for me!”
SWOOSH!
With a small chant, Rex turns into a streak of lightning.
The raven flaps its wings after finding that it can't see Rex's movement clearly, the raven is clearly threatened by Rex a lot.
But before the raven can get high enough,
Rex already appeared below the raven as he leaped towards the raven with his sword.
CLANG!
The raven manages to block Rex's attack but this time, the raven is the one that got pushed back instead of Rex.
After clashing with the raven, Rex bounces from the cave walls to the cave wall.
His movement left black lightning sparks as he bounced from wall to wall, this makes the raven dizzy because of how fast Rex's movement was.
While bouncing from wall to wall, Rex strikes the raven with his sword.
Clang!
Slash!
Clang!
Sparks was created every time Rex's sword clashes with the raven, blood also splattered into the surrounding as the raven's body becomes even bloodier and bloodier the more they clashes.
Roar!
The raven roars weakly as Rex manages to land a cut on its belly.
A gruesome open-cut wound was left as Rex slash the raven's belly with his sword, with that charred wound the raven started to stumble to the narrow wall.
With its huge frame and very big wings, it's hard for the raven to fly properly in this cave.
From the looks of it, the raven won't be able to fly anymore.
Seeing this opportunity, Rex landed on the ground as he imbued even more mana into his sword and also envelop the sword with his yellow force as the ground cracked with black lightning.
Powerful shockwaves charges into the sword creating a slight tremor.
After imbuing the sword with an enormous amount of mana, the sword started cracking as it can't handle Rex's powerful mana.
Knowing that the sword can't handle much more, Rex's legs muscle bulge.
BOOM!
Rex jumped up towards the raven that has started to fly away feeling the danger of Rex's sword, it flaps its wings weirdly as it bumped into the walls but still desperately keep on flying away.
The raven tries to flee towards the entrance to this open place,
Feeling the intense lightning from behind, the raven fires another round of thorns while keep on flapping its wings to flee the place.
But then suddenly,
”Black Field Orko!”
Grip!
Four black lightning tentacles sprouted from the black ground as it caught the raven mid-air, the black tentacles hold the raven still as it tries to break free.
With a wave of his black sparking sword, none of the thorns manage to stop Rex.
Rex arrives at the raven's back before he puts his sword cracking with black lightning forward and thrusts powerfully.
STAB!!
ROAR!!
The sword pierced through the raven's back as it roars in pain,
Black lightning started to invade the raven's insides as it electrocutes the raven's body paralyzing its wings, 'Finally, it's over', Rex thought as he drives the sword deeper.
But to his surprise,
With the last bit of the raven's strength, the raven swings its wing.
The black tentacles got destroyed as Rex loses his focus after assuming that the raven will fall, but turns out there is more into the raven than he thought.
Rex widened his eyes as the raven turns its body around.
After fiercely glaring at Rex trying to print Rex's face to its brain, the raven opens its beak wide as it bites Rex with every last bit of strength.
”RAARGHH!”, Rex shouted as the raven bites him.
The raven bites right on Rex's traps all the way clamping on Rex's chest.
Both of them fall to the ground making the ground tremble as Rex tries to punch the raven off of him to no avail.
It stubbornly kept its bite as Rex shouted in pain.
The raven's saliva corrodes Rex's skin slowly, the pain is unbearable as his skin turns black.
