As soon as Xelin's body transformed into the new magical green armor. Riku suddenly felt the extreme magical power transpiring all over the place.
[Mana sensing]
He was taken aback, could not help himself to move his feet backward. "What the hell? This is bad? How does this man suddenly increase the intensity of his magical power? Don't tell me this is the possible mana pool you could acquire in this place?" He said in a clueless tone while carefully watching the man positioned in front of him.
Swoosh!
In just a blink of an eye, Xelin immediately dashed towards Riku. He then swung his green sparkling springs to easily inflict damage on his opponent.
Swoosh!
Red splashes in front of him after Xelin managed to slice his arm but failed to separate it from his body. "Now, I'm serious. You should pay for all the insults you have said to me." Xelin said in an angry tone, wanting this man to feel severe pain that he was never experienced before.
Swish!
Another slash landed on Riku's stomach, the cut was deep enough to promptly spilled the red blood out of his body.
Riku took a glance in front of him while coughing some blood from his mouth. At this point, he was aware that he was already in a bad situation, or easy to say, he didn't anticipate that there was kind of power existed in this broken world.
"Now I can say you are starting to get serious in this battle. But you didn't realize that I'm holding back in this match and you still having a hard time defeating me? What a joke-" He suddenly paused for a couple of seconds as he saw the green spear was heading on his neck.
In his mind, if that kind of attack landed on him. He could easily say that it can kill him and there was no chance for him to survive.
Swish!
He jumped to the right just to dodge the swift attack coming at him. After that, he regained his footing, knowing that his opponent had no intention to give him an opportunity to counter-attack.
Moreover, the main problem here was, Riku had already taken two slices on his body which gave him a hard time freely moving his body. "F*ck! I didn't figure out that his attack would become so fast. On top of that, I can feel there's a hidden ability behind that green spear."
"What's wrong? I thought you are not still using your protection? So what is the main reason why keep stepping back?" Xelin confronted him as he felt sick chasing this man. At the same time, he wanted to finish this duel since there was a chance the Arozotoc village was making a move to stop them.
Tch!
Riku clicked his tongue, trying to erase all the words he heard from this man. To be exact, he wanted to focus on how he was going to defeat this man with his own power.
He dashed in, letting the spear pass to him. After that, he swung his left arm upward to uppercut Xelin.
Thud!
His attack managed to directly, but the problem here was, Riku failed to inflict any type of damages to him. "No, this is bad! He's going to counterattack."
At this juncture, he discovered Xelin was plotting for something after he saw the smirk on his face. To avoid this incident, he immediately kicked his opponent's chest to easily create distance.
Bam!
Bam!
Bam!
He was rolling on the surface several times, didn't care even the blood soaking on his blanket. "There's no other chance! I should do something if I really want to win in this fight!"
Riku refused to hide the current power he had as of now. Or to put it simply, he wanted to do all the possible ways to win until he have the chance.
'There's no turning back! I don't care even someone could see the skills, this is my life, I don't want to gamble it.' He uttered to his mind, then tried to concentrate his dark magical power in a certain position which was his left hand.
[Fire claw!]
Riku could not wait for more as he was well savvied that he might not last in this fight. A strong fire and keen claws appeared on his hand, and the transformation was enough to would not notice it by Xelin.
Bam!
And all of a sudden, Xelin stopped from attacking him while letting his green sparkling spear touch the surface.
A portion of rocks was scattered all over the place as the spear's force was enough to create a new explosion. Furthermore, he was blinking his eyes in confusion, could not expect that this man has the ability to transform his body into a new terrifying form.
To be more precise, Xelin was surprised at how his opponent could magnify his body without using any type of magic circle. Aside from that, he could not see the intensity of this magical power, he was just simply know that this man would become a dangerous opponent.
"H-Hey, tell me! H-How did you possibly do that?!" Even though he stuttered, still, he asked him in a high manner as he was eager to know more about that.
Yet, Riku had no intention to reveal any one of his powers since it could become the main threat for him if he tried to battle someone. He just furiously looked at Xelin, showing that he was already fighting him.
Swoosh!
In just a blink of an eye, Riku could easily reduce the seven meters down into three meters. After that, he swung his firing claw to show his opponent how strong the power it could release.
Clang!
Yet, nothing changed with his speed since the [Fire claw] just allowed him to manifest the Tibber Bear's arm, not enhancing the current speed he had.
Clang!
So it was the main reason why Xelin managed to block his attack without having any problem.
"Hey, answer me! How did you get that kind of power?!" Xelin was persistent to get more information about him as he already figured out that this ability was one of the important things in this world.
The two were pushing each other with their all might. While Xelin was waiting for this man to respond.
Riku frowned his brows and still had no any intention to leak new information for this man. The only thing inside his mind right now was to finish this duel and proceed to his next job which was having a [Domain].
As soon as Xelin noticed that his opponent was trying to hide everything from him. It was the time when he used some of his power to get the advantage of his fight. In his mind, even this man used an unknown skill towards him, still, there was nothing changed with his physical and magical abilities. For Xelin, this man can't do anything to win against him.
[Stunning spear!]
And all of a sudden, Xelin opened up his legs while his right arm was stretching. The spear's endpoint was pointing at Riku while the green rounded magical power was gathering on the tip.
"If you don't want to talk in a good way. I think you will open the mouth that you have if I force you and experience the brick of death." Xelin said in a deep tone and seemed already finished to cast his skill.
As soon as he threw the magical spear in his grasp, the blow of wind was getting stronger and stronger as this skill was not ordinary. "Taste this! And you should understand the difference between us."
Boom!
The magical spear was passing the air along with the excessive speed. And when the moment it was going to reach Riku, the spears suddenly split into seven pieces which an ordinary person could dodge the attack.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
The sound of metal was taking place although the spears were made of magic, still, it was solid the same as the metal.
Tch!
Riku clicked his tongue since even he was able to deflect the five splitting spears at once, still, two spears were able to penetrate his body.
"Ahh! It's so hot!" He screamed in agony as he could not express the extreme pain he was feeling right now.
"HAHAHA! This is the only thing you could do-" From afar, a man's voice was the only sound they could hear. However, he paused for a second as the magical spear hit by the [Fire claw] has turned into ashes for no good reason.
After a few were moments. Riku easily noticed what happened with the spear he hit, so he did the same thing to two spears pierced on his leg and right shoulders since he felt his life was draining away every time the magical spears stayed on him.
The red blood was inevitable to spill out of his body. So it forced him to use the skill he got from the mystic forest.
