Chapter 161 - Disadvantage

Daurl cracks a smile and says.

"you know ever since you beat me in that tournament, I always thought that you were just lucky, but right now I'm starting to think there is more to you then what you are letting on."

I reply.

"I don't care what you think, this is not a social call."

he look behind me, where Selshruuk, Felnor and Ying are still fighting and responds sarcastically.

"why not? we are gathered here together discussing differences in ideas."

I don't even try to humor him and say.

"enough talking."

I quickly rush him and try to punch him, but he jumps up into the air and starts flying, he looks down at me and laughs as he chants.

"cl.u.s.ter fire bombs."

but since I saw how fast his attack travels, I move out of the way, and blows up chunks of rock and other debris from the base of the mountain, I then aim my palm at him and shout.

"triple fire shot!"

he smiles as he takes the hit and then he brags.

"ever since receiving Mauri's gift, I have gained complete immunity to fire damage."

he then shouts.

"cl.u.s.ter fire bombs!"

as I dodge his attack once again, I think to myself.

"even though he is flying, I can still get him, but it's a bit risky doing it while he is so high up in the air."

he keeps shouting his cl.u.s.ter fire bombs, one after another, trying to overwhelm me, but it doesn't, I instead keep a cool head and chant.

"mana shift."

I focus on the signature that is right in front of him, and quickly chant.

"move."

as I appear on front of him, he looks behind him and punches the empty air.

"that trick again, it won't work on me again!"

I grab on to him and smile.

"I'm in front of you idiot."

I give him multiple heavy punches in the gut with one hand, while grabbing on to his head with the other hand and just as he forcefully frees himself from me, I land one final punch straight to his jaw, I then start falling down, I keep calm and chant.

"self reinforcement."

even though I'm numb to pain while I'm in platinum eyes, it doesn't mean I can be reckless, I still need to protect myself from taking heavy damage, after crash landing on the ground, I take notice that I'm experiencing labored breathing due to the pattern of my breath in the cold air, I then think to myself.

"I think the cold air in these mountains is affecting me."

I look up to Daurl, who is rubbing the places that I hurt him, and say to myself.

"I can't let this drag out any longer, because if I don't have my platinum eyes, I will be feeling the detrimental effects to me."

I then turn back to see how the others are doing and see that Ying has already killed the ogre creature they brought along with them, but it also looks like the cold weather here is affecting him as well, I then look at Felnor's direction and see that he is no longer in control of his fight against the cultists, as he struggles to land effective punches, I then turn to Selshruuk who seems to be the only one from all of us to be completely unaffected by the cold weather, I sigh.

"good, at least Selshruuk, will be able to help us out once he is done fighting the Orcs."

I look up at Daurl who is still in pain and I think to myself.

"well at least I know for sure that he didn't get any of his powers form vampires, or he would have recovered from that pain by now."

I keep looking up and say.

"I guess it's a good time to try out that gravity pull spell, that I've recently gained."

I chant after taking a long and shallow breath.

"gravity pull."

I look up once again, but see that nothing happened, confused on why it didn't activate I ask myself.

"do I not have enough mana to use it?"

I reach into my pouch and see that I only have healing potions, I look back to Selshruuk and shout.

"got any mana potions on you?"

he shouts back while brutally beating on Drulog and the many orcs around him.

"yeah!"

but before I get to move towards his direction, Daurl shouts in anger.

"you bastard, I've enough with these games, it's time to end this!"

after that he chants angrily in the unknown language and brings out a whip, that is shrouded in black smoke, he grins.

"I'll kill you with the same thing I used to kill your friend Gale."

I prepare myself.

"Wolf's hide."

he flies down with the whip in his hand, and then as he gets closer, he takes a big swing, that slices through the arm of my translucent shield, and after dodging the initial attack he managed to do another quick crack of the whip, that struck me in the shoulder, and as he flies up into the air to go for another run, I instantly realize that something is wrong with my whole right arm as I can't get it to move, I then think to myself trying to keep a cool head.

"no problem just drink another healing potion."

after drinking the healing potion, snowflakes begin to fall from the sky, and I think to myself.

"this is no good, the weather is going to get much worse."

I then try to move my right arm but it still doesn't respond to my many attempts, I look at Daurl who is flying back down and I think to myself.

"I need to be careful with that whip, it must be the reason why my arm has been completely disabled even after drinking a healing potion."

he does another fly by amd this time I made sure he didn't get any hits one me but even then it's no good, because of he keeps on flying around I won't be able to do much with my declining mana and my right arm that is out of commission, I sigh in frustration.

"shit, now I see how Gale lost against him."

as I wait for him to do another fly by, I think to myself.

"alright, I'll just wait until he is close enough and then I'll grab onto him."

he swoops down from the air, and as he goes for another strike, I do a fake out, making him attack pre m.a.t.u.r.ely, I then grab on to the arm that his holding the whip, while he flies up into the air, and

he shouts.

"get off me, you bastard!"

he then tries pointing at me with his free hand and chants in the unknown language, mist comes flying out of his palm, but I don't let him by headbutting him multiple times, until he frees himself from my grasp, and as I fall from the air, I

notice that Daurl is also falling from the sky, but he starts swinging his whip wildly at my direction while still falling, and hits my left shoulder, which causes me to get out of platinum eyes, and suddenly a wave of pain hit Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click <a href="#&apos;s-otherworld-adventure_14202078705622905/disadvantage_51148058301357491">#&apos;s-otherworld-adventure_14202078705622905/disadvantage_51148058301357491</a> for visiting.

me in every body part that received any damage throughout our fight, I grit my teeth to fight through the pain and chant.

"self reinforcement."

I crash land on the ground, and just lay on the floor unable to move and my muscles aching, I slightly turn my head to the side and see Daurl crash land as well, I stare at his limp body and say under my breath.

"this isn't over yet."
