Riku could not stop himself from screaming after the two splitting spears were hit on his body. It has so much heat that you could feel that your life was slowly taking away.
Clang! Clang!
To remove the spears, he immediately used his firing arm into it. After that, he was seriously looking at the man in front of him, knowing that he can lose in this duel if he continued to fight in this way.
"I-I'm not holding back. Let's get serious." He stuttered as he was still considering the pain on his wounds.
Xelin just took a glance at him along with a suspicious smile on his face. Or to be exact, nothing changes to his opponent even though he used one of the most valuable magical abilities in this world. For his eyes, this man hadn't had enough magical power or high physical ability to defeat him.
Yet, he can't lie to himself that he was eager to know how this man learned to use the [Transformation magic]. At the same time, now he can easily tell why Riku was confident that he could defeat him.
"You are just weak, idiot. Do you think, relying on that power is the best way to defeat me? Really? What a joke." Xelin was insulting him in a deep tone, knowing that his opponent suddenly decreased his mana pool since he was just recently used his [Fire claw] which consumed his mana pool.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
After a couple of seconds, the two were finished looking at each other as they tried to find out the best move to do in this situation. But for some reason, they dashed each other at once.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The sound of metals was clashing with each other was the only sound that can be heard. Each contact you could feel the strong force they were used to deal massive damage.
___
To begin with. When Xelin split the spear into seven pieces, another long sparkling green spear was occurring in his grasp. But the main problem here was, every time Riku perfectly landed a contact on his weapon. It seemed like, the spear was going to melt because of the intense fire given by the [Fire claw]. At this point, Xelin was forced to make a new spear every time Riku slice his weapon five times.
Well, he was quite lucky. Why? It was because once Xelin had no idea on how many exact strikes he needed before he create a new spear. It might be the [Fire claw] would make way to land a perfect hit which was surely bad for Xelin's current situation.
In his opinion, even though Riku's mana pool has no match against the amount of his mana. Still, the weapon he was using could kill him in just a blink of an eye. What was his basis to think about this scenario? Nothing. His gut was just telling him that he have to stay away from this man at all cost.
The clash of two weapons was taking place until the two locked in a certain position which allowed them to have a small conversation.
First, Xelin frowned his light brows along with an insulting smile on his face. Or to put it simply, he was just happy to see that there was a liter of blood spilling out of his mouth.
"Hmm... Your attack is getting weaker and weaker as long as this fighting gets longer. I thought you are going to be serious about this fight? But what I can see is that you just want to surrender right now?" Xelin said in a deep tone while strongly pushing his spears so that Riku could not reach his momentum to keep attacking.
"Is that so...? Say whatever you want to say, but the result is still the same. You are gonna be defeated by my own hands." Riku replied nonchalantly and seemed he was plotting for something. At the same time, you could not notice to him that he was affected by the wound he received.
Tch!
Xelin clicked his tongue as he can't figure out the main reason why this man can remain confident despite his current situation. "I'm amazed at how you hide your fear against me, but this is the end. I will not show any mercy to you."
Skeesh!
[Crimson spear!]
While the two were battling their strength. Xelin was able to utilize a new type of his skill. At this time, a not-green magical circle appeared next to him, it was a blue magic circle that imprinted the incantation words that he have to spit before he could perfectly cast the skill.
And all of a sudden, Xelin was murmuring some words that he was the only one who could understand. After that, the blue magical circle was passed the blue magical power into his spear which seemed could add more damage.
'Jeez! This man had a vast skill pool, I never he can cast two different skills at once.' He uttered to his mind while watching how the skills exactly work.
To describe the scene, the spear's handle was added by a new blue blade along with the blue chain that was long enough to easily reach the bloody surface. At the same time, could inflict even more damage into its target.
"Hahaha, now you understand the difference between our powers. So let me introduce myself. I'm Xelin Trone I'm the Weaponry of the Rattin Kingdom." Alas, Xelin started to introduce himself as he discovered that he had a worthy opponent right now.
Moreover, Riku was blinking his red eyes on the left and black eyes on the right in confusion. Although the word Weaponry was words explanatory, still, he had no any idea what was the main purpose of that title.
"Weaponry?" He asked in a deep tone, then stepped back meters away knowing Xelin was already releasing his skill.
Boom!
As soon as he swung his spear-scythe downwards, a strong explosion transpired outside of the Arozotoc village. Furthermore, the blue blade arouses created sharp water that could slice a human body.
"Oops! I never thought that attack could be that more dangerous." He said in a way that you could not see that he was terrified. More importantly, he wanted to know about the Weaponry since it could give him a hint on how he was going to defeat his opponent.
And unexpectedly, Xelin paused from engaging, swiping his weapon that released a small amount of water. "Hahaha! I think you are clueless about this? Do you want me to enlighten you?" He said in a boastful tone as he enjoyed showcasing his extraordinary ability, that was the thought.
Riku nodded his head without hesitation. At the same time, believed that man won't do that after he refused to answer all of his questions. "Well, if you want to spit out, then spit out."
Xelin chuckled, "Hahaha! You just nothing. But since you are a worthy opponent I will tell you about my power so you have an idea before you die." He said, then started to explain some of his abilities.
Weaponry or easily called the Weapon Mastery. But the thing here was, his ability was to make seven different kinds of weapons by just using his magical power, it was either offensive or defensive weapons. Sword, spear, scythe, knife, bow, armor, shield, and lastly the Reaper.
Each weapon had a unique passive skill that could help him to enhance his offensive power. At the same time, with his vast skill pool and mana pool, weaponry could become an invisible skill. That was what he said as he was being as of now.
It took several minutes until he finished explaining. Nevertheless, Riku didn't expect that this man would reveal his ability. But what he has cared? As long as it would have the benefit to him everything was fine for him.
"Thanks for that information. But it never comes to your mind that sharing your abilities could become the main reason why you are going to defeat in this match?" Riku asked him in a calm tone while feeling the drop of water coming from above.
Xelin shook his head at him, seemingly would like to start the end of this match. Yes! At the start of the end as he was going to show his supremacy. "Never. Since no one ever could defeat me in one versus one battle." He responded and smirked at him.
Despite his injury, Riku was still confident that he can win in this fight. In his mind, he had the skill that can easily take back the favor of this fight. "Let's stop this chit-chat."
[Metallic armor!]
[Spider senses!]
And all of a sudden, Riku cast three at skill at once as he knew nothing bad would happen to him if he do that. Or to be exact, as long as he had enough mana pool he had nothing to worry about.
Xelin's eyes were widened after seeing the new transformation that this man was doing right now. Also, this circumstance forced him to move to stop him from reaching his full potential.
"No, I'm going to kill you!"
