Chapter 537 Fairy

537 Fairy

Nine seconds.

As Liam struggled with his entangled powers, he slowly came to a realization that his movements weren't entirely random.

Eight seconds.

There was a pattern involved.

Seven seconds.

The more Liam moved each muscle, all at once, even his eyes and toes. Six seconds. The growls of the megalodon's stomach could be heard now.

Five seconds.

Liam increased the intensity of his movements. From one point of view, he looked uncannily possessed.

Four seconds. The more he continued moving, the more the disarray and confusion grew a little clearer!

Three seconds. In reality, it wasn't decreasing!

Two seconds.

It was as though a very intricate set of locks were being opened one by one — with each unlock, Liam regained normal movement.

One second.

By the tenth second, the megalodon was so close, Liam could smell its breath with his enhanced nose. But by the tenth second, he had already gained full control of his entangled body — in a split second, he whipped out the Breaker and smashed it across the World Destroyer's hull-like nose. CLAAAAAAAANNNNGGG!

An ear splitting echo spread through the waves, ravaging the waters. The attack did nothing serious.

As the seconds passed, Liam realized something.

Whenever Liam lodged his Breaker sword through the shark's armor, it moved in that particular direction.

Liam's sword had become a joystick for controlling the shark! That made a huge grin form on Liam's lips. He didn't know why... But his sword had probably pierced something vital. Lucky.

And now?

Now, revenge.

The first thing Liam did was make the megalodon make a sharp curve. WHOOM! Liam flashed a quick smile at one person.

The Flamboyant Woman.

Right now, it looked as though her mask of grace and confidence was threatening to crumble. Well... Liam didn't blame her. There weren't many that could keep calm when charged by a Rank 5 beast... well, maybe other than Liam himself.

"Dodge this, you filthy casual!" Liam screamed and laughed as the World Destroyer was moments away from gorging the woman away from existence.

WHOOOOOM!

A sudden burst of energy exploded around the woman, swirling around her like a tide of intensely colorful flames. Immediately, her aura changed, turning colorful and almost otherworldly. She had become a fairy, sprouting glassy, moth-like wings from her shoulder blades and gaining another layer of grace and style.

Yet, strangely enough, it didn't seem like she became more dangerous. Just... more beautiful and lithe. What happened next, would forever teach Liam not to judge a book by its cover. Just as the megalodon opened wide to swallow the Flamboyant one, the woman made a rising gesture with her hand. Almost immediately, the shark's swimming direction bent, rising alongside her gesture. A second later, she raised another hand, then made a sharp twisting motion with both arms. KRSHHHHHH! KRK! KRK! KRK! Like a wet rag cloth, the World Destroyer twisted across itself, cracks forming throughout its rigid exterior. Clearly not enough to kill it, but to considerably weaken its entire structure. 'That's just stupid,' Liam cursed, attempting to balance himself on the shark's back. Wasn't she Rank 4?

Why did she have an ability more suitable for Rank 5s? Though, despite Liam remaining on its back, the wondrous attack didn't reach him – everything had its limits. But Liam's sword was beginning to slip off, and he had no time to fawn over what just happened. Just then, the megalodon began charging once more.
