Chapter 130: Clash Of Pride 2

The collision between Naomi's hammer and Blake saw a cracking explosion resounding through the air and everyone having a stunned look on their faces as they saw Blake barely flinch an inch from this explosion.

Solara in particular had her mouth wide open when she saw her flames which were supposed to be feeding on his flesh and burning him to nothing suddenly quench, like a flame deprived of oxygen.

Ignoring the gazes around him, Blake focused on the system screen that had popped up in front of him.

[True genuine pride can only be gotten through one's willful hard work, it is the culmination of one's sense of fulfilment.

Pride gives one the strength to stand tall against naysayers and the courage to boldly pursue their goals.

When one falls their pride makes them work harder so that they will never fall again.]

[Your desire to crush your enemies no matter the odds has instilled pride in you]

[You have unlocked pride aura]

[pride Aura: Let your pride be your shield and your will its durability.

100% dominance to all beings with a will less than half of your will.

Exhibit pride in the battlefield to gain 0-100% defence against all attacks instilled with a will less than half of yours.

Using no mana, survive a frontal attack from your opponent with just your physical body to receive immunity to any attack from your opponent weaker than the one you tanked.]

This message had only come after Blake had tanked Naomi's hammer strike, so it was based on a feeling of invincibility that Blake had decided to receive the blow.

After quickly reading what was on the screen, Blake glanced at Solara, his mere gaze making the woman tremble and fall to her knees, and he was just about to turn to Naomi when a searing fireball came speeding towards him.

Without worry on his face, Blake let the fireball hit, and though to Kail it looked like his fireball merely splashed against Blake without burning him, to Naomi and Solara who were by his die, they could see that the fireball never hit him, it merely stopped a meter away from him like it had encountered a barrier.

"I was thinking of tanking this fireball with my bare body and starting my immunity climb, but it seems one of those attacks I survived from Kail with just my body is being counted. It should probably be that first one with the spear.

Looking away from Kail who had by now stood to his feet and was looking at him with squinted eyes, Bake stared at the two women, noticing that Naomi had used his moment of distraction to hastily move her and Solara away from him.

Though the system had explained the main functions which the pride aura offered, there were also the nitpick to it which Blake had to figure out on his own. Enjoy exclusive adventures from m-v l'-NovelFire

From what Blake had observed after looking at Naomi, Solara and even Kail, other than just defending, the aura also portrayed him as a predator to those woefully weaker than him and a threat to those with powerful wills.

Staring at the two girls, the thought of combining pride aura and fear aura popped up in Blake's head, and he was just about to test it out when several human-sized fireballs came speeding towards him.

The fireballs scorched and dug into the earth which they passed over and in no time, like a stream of bullets they were before Blake ready to smash into him one after the other.

However, unlike before when Blake allowed the fireballs to come super close to him before they were blocked, like it was an extra limb, Blake flexed the prideful aura he could feel wafting off his body, pushing it forward till it was about 5 metres from him, this being his max and there all the fireballs were defended, slamming into a seemingly invincible 10 diameter barrier around him.

Still with a single arm, Blake began moving forwards, a dozen fireballs splashing and dispersing when they came 5 metres close to him and with a few steps, Blake closed the distance between him and Kail.

"I see you still aren't dead" Blake said shaking his head.

"I've been over here watching you for a while and I have to say I never expected to meet someone like you in this world.

"I don't swing that way Kail," Blake said but then Kail burst out laughing, holding his face in his palm.

"Perhaps you don't know this, but I am not from this world" Kail said satisfied when he got a raised eyebrow from Blake.

"As part of my training I have travelled through about a dozen worlds in our Solosses, and in all my travels I have never seen a talent who comes close to me, not even amongst the disciples of champions, I have always triumphed over them all, well that is till I met you.

You a puny first order being actually matching up to me"

Though Blake hadn't been hiding his rank, that Kail had picked up on it despite the potent power that poured from his being actually surprised Blake but his shock was nothing compared to those around,

Kail's reveal had Naomi, Solara and even Rehabab looking at Blake in shock, surprise and disbelief filling them.

"Kail are you sure about this" Naomi who was well away couldn't help but ask, her mind believing that she had heard Kail wrong, but his nod broke her hopes.

"You say I only come close to you. What else do you have for me" Blake asked.

When Blake asked this question, Kail smiled and took two steps forward and though Blake didn't show it, he felt the radius of his pride aura actually reduce and the abundant aura which he gave off weaken.

"Tell me Blake, the spear is used to attack you, what happened to it."

"It self-destructed during the explosion," Blake said with a shrug his eyes narrowing as he could feel the atmosphere tensing and tightening around him.

Kail opened his mouth to reply Blake, but before a word could get out, Blake shot forward, red mist powered by a 7 vitality stat wafting off him, but just as he was 8 metres from Kail he felt a mighty force appear and push against him and though Blake tried to overpower this force, he found himself sent flying backwards and crashing into the ground within seconds.

"I have been giving my best against you Blake, but if I were to count the might of the power I have held back, then in truth you have been fighting against me using 60% of my power."

Pushing himself up to his feet, Blake calmly rotated his neck and looked at Kail with annoyance a red sword appearing in his hand and catching on fire.

"You're beginning to sound like a woman, spit it out what do you think you possess that is so special."

[you have committed a prideful act +300 SP]

Kail smiled at Blake's rude request and then lifted his hand forward as he levitated 3 meters off the earth.

"I have a comprehension Blake, I have comprehended Mana."

Immediately Kail finished speaking right before Blake's eyes mana so thick that it became visible rose up from the earth and formed several dozen spears which all hung up above Kail and pointed down at Blake.
