Chapter 16 The Match Of Genesis(II)

"There you have it, folks, the battle you've all been waiting for can officially begin!"

On Bobo's call, the match officially began.

*Boom!*

Soon not giving anyone a chance to react, Slohet took the lead in charging toward Elric.

With Soleht's dash, a large amount of dust rose from the ground and shook slightly indicating the force used in the dash.

Within a few seconds, he had already appeared in front of Elric.

*Damn! How could you be so strong!*

Mumbling under his breath, a voice of unwillingness came out from Elric as he barely survived, after all, thinking of the last time he checked Slohets stats the difference between them wasn't much at all, but now he can hardly take a move much less fighting back.

Unfortunately, although he tried to whisper to an upgraded Slohet it was as loud as shouting in his ear, thankfully he didn't seem to care

"Haha, you must be wondering why I'm so strong, yes?"

"This is the power bestowed onto me by my lord!"

Pointing to the lines and tattoos appearing all over his body, a look of pride appeared on his face.

Unfortunately, he didn't give Elric much time to observe the patterns.

"Now be honored to lose to the great Slohet and get hit with my lord's grace!"

Not talking anymore nonsense, he gave a quick punch, apparently wanting to end this fight quickly.

Thankfully at this point, the A.I chip had already taken control over Elric's movements successfully dodging the attack.

*Boom!*

*Boom!*

*Boom!*

With each miss, a huge dent was made in the ground showing the amount of shear force used behind each punch.

"A.I. chip, what's going on with these patterns, scan them for me!"

looking at the unrealistic damage, a look of surprise appeared on Elric's face as it made him wonder if he was fighting a certain green man who got stronger with anger.

[Task established...]

[ Scanning Patterns!]

[Report to host these patterns seem to guide the surrounding mana in the air into his body thereby giving him a strengthening boost]

Just as he was about to continue talking to the A.I chip, A giant red fist made its way toward his face.

"A.I. chip, I have no time to talk, just do something!"

screaming in his mind as he saw the ever-oncoming fist.

[Yes host!]

*Boom!*

A loud shockwave sounded throughout the arena as their fists collided.

Just at the moment of impact, covered with a familiar pattern Elric raised his fist successfully to avoid a direct impact.

"..."

"..."

Silence filled the arena as both fighters looked at each other, shocked by the outcome of the altercation just now.

Unexpectedly before any could react a burst of familiar loud laughter broke the silence

"Hahaha, I see, so you were hiding your strength, ask expected of someone I recognize!"

"In terms of humans, I Slohet would like to call you the strongest!"

Although he was laughing, a look of surprise still flashed through his eyes, obviously not expecting a human to catch his punch.

Even Elric himself was shocked by the outcome much less Slohet

"A.I chip, how did I do that just now?"

[Report to the host, by stimulating the flow of energy in Slohet's body with yours, It has been discovered to enhance your body strength bringing both of you to almost equal strengths]

listening to the A.I. chips explain a glint of light flashed through his eyes.

"A.I. chip record this energy route and save it as body strengthening magic!"

[Yes host!]

[Body enhancement magic has been successfully created!]

Looking at the new file with a hippie smile, for the first time, he was glad he chose to have this fight

"However although I'm stronger, I'm still weaker than him in terms of skills"

Thinking of the close call just now, a shiver ran down his spine.

"Thankfully the A.I chip still has a hidden mode"

"A.I. chip active combat mode!*

Back on the blue star, in order to give everyone a means of protection a hidden mode was installed into each A.I. chip.

'Combat mode!' Once this mode is turned on, it gives the A.I chip full control of the user's body to help defend against any attackers.

But this is not enough to make it a hidden mode, in this mode the A.I chips learning abilities come into play in allowing the user to copy and learn from their opponent's moves at extremely fast speeds. Because of this, this mode was not made known to the general public; only a select few were allowed to know.

At this moment, Elric couldn't help but feel thankful he had a lot of rich friends back on the blue star if not he might not have known.

*Boom!*

*Boom!*

*Boom!*

Soon unlike the earlier alteration, under the A.I chips rapid learning, each punch, kick, or jab from Slohet was met with an almost perfect counter from Elric.

Punch for punch, kick for kick, jab for jab it seemed like both sides had completely immersed themselves in the fight, forgetting the audience around them.

"Yeaaaahhhhh!!!!"

"Ohhhhhhhh!"

"roaaaarr!"

The fight seemed to have reached an all-new peak with shouts from all sides of the arena reaching the sky.

unknown to the crowd, while all this was going on, one of the Fighters in question was experiencing some difficulties at the moment.

With the constant use of mana, The soul inscription with his soul seemed to be stimulated glowing in a strange black color, too bad no one could observe such a strange sight.

soon, with almost within a fraction of a second, from what was only the inscription his whole soul had become covered in a pitch-black glow

*Boom!*

At this moment, his mind seemed to explode in a trance, Elric seemed to see Tantibus roaring proudly to the sky.

*humph!*

Just as he was about to go closer to get a closer look at the figure, a cold snort came from his mouth causing the whole surrounding scene to collapse.

On the outside world, while his body was still fighting on autopilot, the A.I chips alarm was ringing throughout his mind.

[Beep! beep! beep!]

[Alert! Alert! alert!]

[Brain activity of the host is constantly lowering, the host's consciousness is being affected by an unknown factor!]

[Activate emergency means]

[Commencing transcranial electrical stimulation!]

Under a series of alarms, a burst of electricity was sent into Elric's brain, quickly bringing its activity back up.

After a few minutes of loss, he completely woke up with a look of confusion on his face.

"A.I chip what just happened"

[The host consciousness was being through an unknown method]

hearing the reply, he couldn't help but think of that huge figure he had seen

"Is this what Tulpar meant when he asked 'why do you have a familiar presence as an old friend?' "

Unfortunately, no one was there to answer.

*However, It seems before using the current soul inscription anymore it should be studied more*

Thinking of the huge Tantibus cold eyes, it made him doubt whether the Tantibus beast core he absorbed back then in the cave was completely dead, if not why did he see it in his consciousness space,

the more he thought of it, the more and more he felt he was on to something. After all, this is a world where all kinds of Gods and monsters exist. Anything is possible.

However, he quickly threw it out of his mind as he had more pressing matters to deal with.

[host there are huge amounts of energy reactions going on in the opponent's body right now]

hearing the words from the A.I chip, an ominous premonition came to him.

Sure enough after a few seconds, the heart laughter of Slohet resounded through the arena

"Haha, human, although this was a nice battle but on the order of my God, I have to end you now!"

At this point, his whole body had begun to glow bright red releasing a terrifying aura suppressing the entire audience.

"Human named Elric! on the order of my God, please die!'

with a loud shout, he gathered all his energy into one punch.

"Red orc secret technique!"

"Serious punch!!!"
