Chapter 67: The Giant III
Chapter 67: The Giant III
Grashia took large steps and made his way toward Felix who was glancing all around the stage looking for the perfect opportunity.
'There!'
Just when Grashia had raised his arm to launch a punch ahead, Felix quickly reacted and dashed forward using Agility Burst.
He bent his body down and went through under Grashia's arm reaching his back.
Gripping the shortsword tightly, he didn't try anything fancy and just stabbed it deep inside the red mark that had appeared on Grashia's underarm.
As soon as he inserted the sword, he swiftly channeled the baleful energy of corrosion and made it seep inside through his sword.
Grashia's face changed when he again felt the horrible feeling that was going through his body.
He swung his arms in a frenzy wanting to push away the hateful guy that was putting him through this horrible pain.
Felix was already ready for the counterattack and had planned ahead.
Before Grashia could hit him, he had taken out his sword and quickly moved around him to his blind spot.
Grashia's mind was a bit unstable due to the corrosive pain that was coursing through his chest and he failed to notice his opponent going for another strike.
Not wasting the chance, Felix reached behind Grashia holding his sword and this time aimed for his legs.
Using both hands, he gripped his sword facing the blade downwards, and stabbed it at the back of Grashia's right knee.
The shortsword quickly entered deep inside his body and Felis simultaneously used his skill corrosion, letting the baleful energy move all over Grashia's leg.
"AAAGH!!"
It seemed that this time the pain Grashia was feeling was the most terrible of all considering his out-of-shape legs that were slightly inproportional with the rest of his body.
Grashia fell down on his knees, the shortsword still stabbed in his legs but he tried to get up taking large amounts of breath in.
Felix saw that his opponent was still trying to resist and decided to end the battle.
Deftly removing the sword from the giant's body, he brought it backward before strongly stabbing deep into his back and also turning on the skill corrosion.
"KHAAGHH!!"
He actually couldn't even believe what he was saying but the truth was before him as his stupid friend was dancing like an idiot for their betting victory.
The other men too came out of their daze and started to shout out loud happily for winning the bet that they didn't have any hopes for.
The whole audience joined them and started to make a commotion as the battle they had watched today was so different unlike any they had ever seen.
The huge commotion sparked the interest of the many people who were moving about the arenas, making them approach and ask about the situation.
Upon getting to know the reason for all the ruckus, the people were flabbergasted and found it hard to believe.
A newcomer fighter defeated the cruel zombie giant?
That was unbelievable for them and they didn't take the words of the audience to their hearts.
The audience people got annoyed and instead of telling more, they just pointed to the stage where the zombie giant Grashia was kneeling down with a small person slowly walking away from there.
After personally seeing the truth, the new people widened their eyes and started to get excited at the arrival of a new arena battle challenger.
That was all they wanted.
To have more amazing fights to watch with more and more strong fighters coming out from every corner.
The gathering of all these mighty fighters would lead to the start of another crazy era of Arena battles that would blow away all the usual boredom and bring back the hype of the previous underworld.
.....
Unaware of the chaotic spark that he had lit up, Felix walked down to the underground path of the stage.
"Haa...haa...this is killing me...."
He took deep breaths leaning his back against the wall and relaxed his body from the over exhaustion of repetitively using the skill Agility Burst, which basically sucked all his stamina to produce the increase in speed.
Felix closed his eyes and gradually recovered his body's stamina after a few minutes.
There were lots of wounds on his body but they were not that critical as his opponent had not used any sharp weapons.
He opened his eyes letting out a deep breath and made an emotionless face.
"Let's go, there's still four battles remaining....."
