65 War part 3 (2/2)

Unfortunately for Rex, no fight was played fair and square, it also depended on the tools used and during the whole scrimmage Aya had been using her regular Copper Kukuri and carry the Iron ones around the back of her waist.It was the good old trick of using the same move repeatedly and then suddenly changing.She continued attacking in the same pattern with her copper weapon over and over to create a bit of muscle memory on her opponent.

Aya seemingly attacked Rex in the same way as usual but right before he disengaged backwards she use her Skill Knife Throw which perplex Rex as he thought she was throwing away her weapon.Rex pull his bow back and use the Combat Art Rapid Fire to shoot 4 arrows at extremely fast speed to knock the knives out of their trajectory.

Rex was tense but in his mind it was just a pointless try by Aya that he didn't understand.Even with the other knives around her waist, once she takes them out they would just go back to the status quo and no advantage would be gained.Sadly, Rex couldn't be more wrong.There was a little advantage that he forgot, the previous times he had used Radiant arrow to help his pet but this time the pet was all alone while attacking with his claw.

The claw hit a mirage and that miss activated Lucky Gambit doubling the damage of Aya's next attack.The Iron Kukuri cut across the wolf's belly like knife through butter exposing his insides as it felt to the floor.

Whimper!!

NOOOOO!!

Rex saw the blood cover snow and went into a Rage throwing all kinds of skills at Ayas but she quickly disappeared among the trees.Rex couldn't even help his companion and that filled him with desperation.Rex was looking around trying to find her but it was tough, all of the sudden he felt the hairs on his back stood up and without thinking about it he turned and use Disengaged to move away while he shot a Poison Arrow.

Aya wanted to used Lucky Gambit to finish the fight so she evade it with the closest of margins but was still grace by it creating a minor cut on her skin, the skill still activated and a Double damage Knife throw lodge itself in Rex's Heart.

Rex smiled after seeing the cut on Aya's arm and then looked at the KuKuri stuck on his chest ”Iron Weapon, Cheater!!”Rex fell backwards and never got up again.

Aya took out her knife and bowed to her old rival before leaving to help her village some more but just when she was rushing back, the Kukuri on her poison hand dropped to the floor.She looked at the arm that was starting to turn black and smiled bitterly 'Poison Arrow!!, who is the cheater now' aye made a 90 degree turn and went to get assistance.

The chief fight was going nowhere, Cerdic and Mogho both had iron weapons and were the same level which came as a surprise to Mogho that had been working extremely hard to get one up on his counterpart but apparently no matter what he did they were evenly match in every aspect.

Everytime Mogho try to get his Rage bar going it was stop by a bash and the Blessing from Etta reduce the damage from physical attacks as well as it increased stamina providing Cerdic with the ability to use strengthen defense for longer periods of time.

It was pretty hard for Mogho to break Cerdic defense, even the use of Bloodlust was countered by The Combat Art Iron Will that stop damage in exchanged for energy.Even if it was a fight between the two of them it really wasn't.The chief was the most important chess piece in a war and none of the elder will let anything happened to them.Heals and Wards came from time to time and stop critical damage from happening.
