Chapter 129: Clash Of Pride 1

Blake felt that he had to punch Kail really hard to prove to him that he was still in the game. But just as he and the clones were about to clash, a powerful aura left Kail, Blake suddenly found himself in a position he put several people in before.

Blake's movement slowed as he was hit with a wave of fear and though he shrugged it off almost immediately, the same could not be said for his mana because to his shock, it once again began lagging.

"This is different from the pulse he sent out last time, what kind of technique is this"

While Blake found himself deprived of his mana and having to use just his physical strength to battle, Kail who was watching him silently finished muttering the technique he had just cast.

"Aura bind."

Kail had spawned 24 clones and seeing them surround Blake he turned and started walking away, the thoight of Blake fading from his mind.

Blake had just begun thinking about how to handle the clones around him when he saw Kail turn to leave and his eyes couldn't help but narrow at this while an indomitable aura exploded out of him.

"Where do you think you're going? Are you dead yet?"

Blake's words froze Kail in his tracks, the clones around him immediately exploding as he activated his fear aura to the max, his emotions boosting its strength.

Though Blake wasn't sure what kind of technique Kail had used to suppress his mana, with just a full circulation of his blood around his body, he had freed it and on the spot decided to dominate this battlefield.

"You are becoming annoying, perhaps it's time I….."

When Kail had begun speaking his face had been of annoyance and disinterest, but then midway through his speech, Blake's figure disappeared and appeared in front of him and he had just barely crossed his arms his arms in defence, a shield appeared over them when the hardest punch he had ever felt in his life was thrown at him and he without delay he was sent shooting through the air.

With a thick red mist rising off his body, Blake watched Kail speed through the air, but then rather than run after him he calmly walked, his steps fast and firm.

"10 vitality points and he was still able to react and put up a semblance of a defence, not to mention he was actually able to cast a technique" Blake lamented.

The true reason Blake hadn't pursued after Kail was that he couldn't, just before Blake could hit him, the man cast another disruptive pulse and though Blake's attack properly landed on him before the technique hit, after that, he could only watch his opponent soar away from him, while the energies in his body lagged.

With the other members of their group having moved closer to them, Blake wasn't surprised to see Kail's figure land in their midst, but when he walked closer, he was surprised to see the horrible state Rehabab was in.

As Blake approached the group, a light red mist began leaving his body and though he had indeed lost one arm, the fact that he had sent Kail flying through the air and digging through the ground made both Naomi and Solara take several steps back as he approached, their eyes trained on him, their body tense and alert.

Blake moved till he was a few steps from the group who were facing against each other, having Rehabab to his right side and Naomi and Solara on his left with Kail quite the distance away.

"I knew you were getting tag-teamed but I didn't think you would be losing this bad."

Ignoring Naomi and Solara who stood to the other side, Black placed his attention on Rehabab, watching as he gritted his teeth and pushed himself to his feet.

"Speak for yourself, you had just a single opponent and you gave him your arm."

Blake raised an eyebrow at Rehabab's words interested to know that he still had a personality.

"True but at least I'm not getting beat up and forced to kneel" Blake said looking away from Rehabab and staring at Kail who was some distance away, down one knee and had blood dribbling down his lips.

Blake opened his mouth to speak to Kail but was forced to look to his left as Solara had the white flames she had summoned earlier to burn Rehabab shooting towards him, the searing heat of it reaching Blake before the fire had even come close. Find your next read at m_v l|e-NovelFire

"How Ironic that you're getting beat up with your own element" Blake said as blood poured from his stump and formed a thick wide shield directly in the path of the fire. S~eaʀᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"That's not normal fire, it's a holy flame, Retreat " Rehabab said already moving away, but Blake stayed.

Despite seeing how his blood shield boiled and began trembling at just the touch of the white flames, rather than flee, Blake turned towards the fire which was still being held back by the blood shield, a roaring and rapidly growing blood-red fireball appearing in his hand and when the white flames eventually broke through, he pointed the fireball at the approaching flames and sent it shooting forward.

Without delay the fireball and the torrent of flames clashed a resounding explosion which saw the white flames win erupting and when the diminished flames charged forwards, so also did Blake.

Blake had never been burned by holy flames but today he tested it and now he knew why underworld beings feared and hated it so much.

Unlike normal fore which washed over one's body as it burned it, holy flames stuck to the body like glue and then rather than burn outwards, they brunt inwards.

This meant that rather than thriving on oxygen to survive like normal fire, they instead fed on one's flesh to keep alive, the flesh of those filled with evil a delicacy.

Running into the flames, Blake soon had his entire body covered with white flames, the pain that came from it as his flesh was being burnt and fed on horrifying, but he paid this no mind,

Like he was immune to pain, Blake went through the wave of flames and coming out of the other side, appeared in front of Solara, a fist covered in white flames heading towards her, but then just before he could hit her, a yellow shield appeared, this shield stopping Blake punch to his surprise and then with his failed attack, he could only look to the side as a hammer which was bathed in white light and shattering the air headed toward him.

Seeing the smirk on Naomi's face as her hammer came for him, Blake quickly arrived at a conclusion.

"They anticipated that this is what I would do, but how"

Boxed in this badly, and knowing that no blood shield he would create could even be an obstacle to Naomi's bright hammer, Blake thought to burn more of his vitality to get out of the way, but then he snorted and let the hammer hit him.
