Chapter 112: Brawler



"AAAAARRGGGH!"

Henry incoherently screamed as he fired a volley of shots at Emir, appearing to have recharged his augmented suit with another energy pack.

Emir easily blocked all of his shots with his Aetheric shield, not bothering to dodge the barrage, knowing that it wouldn't damage him in the slightest.

He couldn't return fire as his shield would block his bullets, so he unsheathed his daggers and went in close, aiming for a melee battle.

Henry appeared surprised at Emir's Aether capacity as he screamed:

"HOW MUCH AETHER DO YOU FUCKING HAVE?!!"

Emir snickered at his remark and stepped in front of him.

Henry let go of his weapons as his fists went wild with Aether.

'So a brawler, huh?' Emir thought as he swung down his daggers, aiming at Henry's chest.

His daggers were blocked by Henry as he held his arms in front of him, forming an X, a makeshift-like shield, with his hands.

Emir then stepped back to disengage and began analyzing Henry's fighting style in slow motion.

The first thing that stood out to him was that Henry looked like to be relying heavily on his physical strength, using Aether only to enhance his punches and blocks, quite typical of his easily angered and oblivious personality.

Emir smirked, knowing that he could easily outmaneuver him.

He then dodged and sidestepped around Henry's continuous and wild punches, waiting for the right moment to strike.

Henry, on the other hand, was growing increasingly frustrated with Emir's evasive tactics.

"You can't keep running forever!" He bellowed, charging towards Emir with his fists clenched.

Emir waited until the last possible moment before sidestepping and delivering a swift kick to Henry's side.

The blow sent Henry reeling, but he quickly regained his footing.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Their eyes locked again as they both stepped back, each trying to predict the other's next

move.

The only sound that could be heard was the faint whisper of their breaths.

"RAAAAAAAH!"

Henry broke the silence with a sudden deafening roar, charging towards Emir with a fury that shook the very foundation of the shelf they stood on.

he proped up.

So now his only option was to use his Aetherstorm Launcher and Aetheric Blades ability to kill

his opponent.

The weapon whirled as it let out a white beam of light, which instantly reached Henry.

But he managed to block the blast while it pushed him off the shelves by the sheer force of it.

Emir rushed at him and jumped down.

His daggers shined as he chanted, "Aetheric Blades," once again.

The air crackled with tension as the daggers lit up with a dark, ominous hue.

With fast movements, Emir reached Henry and swung the deadly blades towards the brawler,

who was still reeling from the impact of crashing into the ground.

Henry tried to block the attack with his hands, but he was too slow.

Emir's first slash was deflected by Henry's augmented suit, but the Aetheric Duelist was unfazed as he swung the dagger at Henry once again.

And with a sickening sound, the dagger broke through Henry's defense and gutted his chest

open.

"GAH!"

Emir's face was splattered with blood, but he ignored it.

He took this chance and plunged his daggers deep into Henry's heart.

"YOUUUU..."

The brawler screamed as he tried to fight back with his last ounce of strength, but it was

futile.

All he could manage was a feeble push to Emir's face, a pathetic attempt at a punch.

And as Henry's eyes went lifeless, Emir stood over him, watching with a smile.

The silence soon returned to the ruin as he took a deep breath while savoring his victory like

usual.
