Chapter 521: Fourth Fight: Stein & Bernard VS Cathyl & Vheslia 8

-----

Cathyl looked into Stein's body after she threw him off into the ground and wouldn't give him a break at all! She wanted to overwhelm the man so he wouldn't have the time to stand up at all! Of course, this wasn't only her idea, everyone in the battlefield knew the monster that Stein could be. They knew that the best way to beat him would be to gang on him when he's down in the ground!

Not only Gwendolyn and Julia realized this, but everyone else… Frank looked at the scene while thinking that the best way he would deal with Stein was by using Spatial Magic to cut his limbs off, but maybe… maybe that wouldn't work either. He was certainly not as monstrously strong as he was, so he would end up using a lot of his multiple abilities to make up for it, overwhelming a specialized min-maxed tank as a jack of all trades.

FLAAAASH!

Gwendolyn's entire body was enhanced by the power of her martial art techniques that strengthened her body, alongside her breathing techniques and then her divinity of winds, and her divine aura! all of this combined generated an incredible boost to her body's strength, through the roofs!

Her muscles bulged but at the same time they became slender and more flexible, her body pierced the wind itself and reached Stein who was in the ground in an instant!

FLASH!

CLASH!

Her axe quickly fell over Stein, while being enhanced by Cathyl's divine aura of winds, she encompassed her axe with it and then unleashed several divine techniques at the same time!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

Her axe fell over Stein continuously as he groaned in pain!

"GRUUAGGH…! AAAAARRRGHH…!"

Cathyl didn't let him go! She used her legs and her incredible strength to keep him down as she bathed him in constant blows, forming a storms of winds that only made her deadly onslaught even deadlier! It seemed as if she had no end to her punishment against the monstrous zombie man, her attacks were mesmerizingly ruthless!

However, she couldn't be gentler with this hulk… especially because of what was happening. His arms, although they were slashed and damaged, were still taking on her strongest blows possible, and consecutively!

Although it looked like she was overwhelming him, she couldn't cut off her pace or she would give him the chance to retaliate, something she didn't wanted to!

"AGGH…! UNGH…!"

Stein was left in a passive state as this woman dominated him, her axe of strength couldn't stop at any second, and he couldn't find any way to continue fighting, he lacked enough techniques to find a way to retaliate, he was a hulk that relied on his overwhelming strength alone…

And on his willpower.

"Hanna…! Hanna…!" he thought, as he suddenly watched Hanna in the long distance, behind the barrier. She was standing out and cheering for him, she was screaming yet he couldn't hear her due to the soundproofing ability of the barrier…

"HANNA! RAAAAAAAA!"

Suddenly fueled by willpower alone, Stein rushed towards Cathyl and pushed her down, tanking all her incredible attacks and simply unleashing everything he had against her!

"Nghh?!"

Cathyl muttered these words as she looked at Stein suddenly stand up out of nowhere! His fists suddenly began to be encompassed by the power of his aura, as they moved incredibly quickly, releasing consecutive punches against Cathyl!

"Aaaaaaggggh…!"

"OORRRRAAAA!"

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Each fist was like a giant mountain crushing over Cathyl's entire body, and they were many, consecutively clashing over her! Everyone that were to receive this much damage would simply explode into pieces and die!

However, Cathyl…

Somehow, Cathyl…

Somehow…!

She was smiling?!

"Hehe… That's it, big guy! HAHAHA!"

She began to laugh manically as her smile emerged in her lips, her entire body was being shrouded in enormously deathly attacks, her armor was twisting around and about to crack, but her muscles alone were resisting the hits!

"Ungh?! A-Are you crazy or something?!" asked Stein, as Cathyl suddenly jumped out of her position with a burst of winds, her entire body was suddenly malforming and bulging, the shockwaves of Stein's blows were still inside her body, as if she were about to burst!

However!

"OOF…! T-There!"

CLASH!

Cathyl's wondrous muscles suddenly clasped! As if they had suddenly released all the absorbed pressure! Her muscles had just evolved completely into another level of power! They felt like sponges that absorbed all the hits and then hey suddenly released all this pressure accumulated, slightly managing to not explode into a bloody mess!

BOOOOMMM!!!

The powerful pressure reached Stein, pushing him away instantly as the Ghoul groaned in pain!

"GUUAH…!"

BOOM!!!

Everyone was left shocked! Just how… amazing could Cathyl be?!

Stein was also suddenly damaged, the pressuring shockwaves released from Cathyl were the same power he used, but it was made hostile towards his body, damaging his internal structure! His muscles felt tremendous pain, his ribs slightly cracked, and his internal organs all trembled, he could swear his heart almost burst right there!

He hit the ground painfully, as he tried to quickly stand up…

Cathyl looked at him with a smile as she rested the axe over her shoulder.

"Ngh…"

However, Cathyl suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood, as she felt powerful and horrifyingly painful crams all over her muscular body, her eyes twisted around in pain, as she gritted her teeth.

"Breathing… technique!"

FLASH!

The winds encompassed her body and the side effects of releasing such strong pressuring energy were slightly healed, but her internal organs had taken a painful hit there… she couldn't abuse this technique for too long or else… she might be knocked out!

"You're a formidable fighter… What you did just now… that was… I never thought someone could do that…!" said Stein while gritting his teeth, glaring at Cathyl, he truly recognized her as a strong adversary now!

"Is that so, big guy? I guess I am just that unique of a girl…" said Cathyl, without even thinking it twice, she flew towards Stein with her winds, coming up to fight him again!

This battle was just starting!
