Chapter 392 The Ongoing Battle With the Clan Head (Part 2)
If it wasn’t for the blazer that Raze had obtained, he was pretty sure that he would have been dead by now. Already, the healing effects of just wearing the blazer had saved him.
Although the healing was minimal, especially while in combat, he just needed that little help to allow him to breathe just a little bit, giving him more air so his muscles could work the way they were meant to.
There was a difference between the fight with Feebie and the one with Dame. For one, he was getting hit more, and the strikes were more powerful. At the same time, due to being in a tense situation and fight, he was finding it harder to control his Qi. He was desperate, overloading himself, pushing his Qi more than it could really go, hurting himself more.
‘I need to calm down,’ Raze thought as he pushed himself up off the ground. Slowly, he started to focus on his breathing. ‘I need to get out of this situation, alive no matter what. This chance, with the blazer, it was given to me to get through this!’
Opening up his hand, a red pill and a green pill appeared. He lifted his head up, taking in the pills, and looked ahead.
“The Noctis Clan’s skills, why do you know them?” Feebie stated. “The clan’s skills were lost, there are no survivors left that belong to that clan, so how do you know them? Who are you?”
Raze, unable to really speak, held the sword in his hand again and just started to smile.
lightsnοvεl “Fine, if I keep you alive within an inch of your life, as long as you can write, you can tell me what you know.”
When Feebie charged forward, Raze breathed carefully, trying not to force himself. With one hand free, he pushed the sand from the ground, and it went straight into Feebie’s face.
“Just because this worked against the last person, doesn’t mean it will work against me!” Feebie spun her body, and when she did, she threw her fist in the air.
The sand that was pushed by the wind magic had been pushed back and was heading straight for Raze, but moving his hand, he was able to split the sand apart, and following up, he swung the sword down.
Even though Feebie was yet to reach striking distance, she found this strange. ‘He can’t know how to use external Qi, that would be impossible.’
Yet her eyes saw a red strike in the air, leaving from the sword. It cut through the sand. It was almost the same as the Eclipse Strike, only this one was far weaker.
Moving to the side, the strike avoided her face, but it wasn’t the only one. Several more strikes followed up from the attacks, causing her to move and avoid each of them.
‘This has to be one of his tricky powers again. I can feel the Qi in his strikes though, and they are quite strong. I can’t believe it; after what I did to him, the kid is still capable of doing this. If he is allowed to rise, then he will be the end of us all; I have to get rid of the White Dragon.’
Feebie kicked off in the air and started to spin her body again. Even when the crimson strikes hit her body, they did next to nothing in terms of power. Raze needed stronger attacks. He needed the Dark Edge Sword Arts mixed with his magic to create big enough strikes. When Feebie was close enough, Raze chased forward using his Descending Steps and slashed his sword through the air.
It had hit nothing, as Feebie had flipped over and was behind him. She grabbed the back of his head and then lifted her hand, slamming it on Raze’s stomach. His entire body crashed into the floor and bounced off the ground.
Blood splattered out of his mouth, falling on his clothing and a part of the floor. ‘This really hurts… and every hit is disrupting my breathing more!’
Wanting to get away, Raze had to do something, and when he touched the floor, his hands started to form ice. It grew across the ground until it had reached Feebie’s feet. Immediately after, Raze then used Dark Pulse on the floor, hitting it. It propelled him up quickly, and then he pushed with his Wind magic, increasing the distance between the two while also leaving a dust cloud behind him.
Almost immediately, Feebie lifted her legs and simply broke through the ice. Charging forward, she had almost caught right up to him.
“You’re not getting away; I would rather kill you than let you get away. I don’t care about who you are that much; I just want you dead!”
Spinning her hand in the air, the wrapping strangely started to harden as it was reinforced with Qi, and it had turned into what looked like a small drill. She then shoved it forward, heading right for Raze’s back.
‘The amount of Qi I can feel behind me… she’s trying to kill me! I thought she cared about the Noctis Clan, but I guess not enough!’
Turning around, using his foot skills, none of those things would work. There was only one thing he could do.
‘Shrouded Heart!’
All of the mana from his body had activated, and in doing so, it started to swirl around his mana core. It condensed. The strike from Feebie pierced through, for the first time, the blazer.
It had activated, breaking a lot of the Qi, but not enough of it; it from Feebie pierced through, for the first time, the blazer.
It had activated, breaking a lot of the Qi, but not enough of it; it continued going forward until it touched the mana core. In doing so, Shrouded Heart had activated, and both of them at the same time were blasted away.
Raze’s body flung forward again; his foot hit part of the floor, causing him to stumble across the ground. He skidded for a while but managed to use his Qi in his fingertips to stop himself from going off too far.
‘I had to use Shrouded Heart again!’ Raze thought as he could feel his mana core, its light starting to fade away.
He was aware of his situation; he could feel the wound on his back. ‘The blazer is damaged, but it will restore itself eventually; I don’t have to worry about that. Right now, I have to worry about what is happening to me.’
Raze could see a destroyed building; the roof had collapsed. It was one of the ones that hadn’t been hit before, and he imagined that it was due to Feebie getting a rebound from Raze’s magic.
Usually, with Shrouded Heart, this wouldn’t happen, but the timing of it all, the spell was just completed in time to save him, and all of his mana having gathered had caused this effect.
It wasn’t going to be enough to deal with Feebie, though, and now there was an even bigger problem.
‘When I use the skill Shrouded Heart, all of my mana goes; I no longer can use my spells, the blazer is damaged, and my Qi is 20:13
not at its best with my breathing. Things just seem to keep getting worse; how am I meant to win this fight now?’ Raze thought.
