"Well Rocky, let’s do this."
But ’Rocky’ wasn’t done, the lava in his body dispersed in very specific parts. Making the arms, the legs and the heads to burn bright with a purple and crimson combustion.
’Rocky’ must not have felt his own weight, because Viktor only blinked, when his eyes opened again his sight was blocked by this giant assembled chunk of rocks.
If he were a person who didn’t go to countless battles already he would’ve no doubt been startled into making mistakes. Instead, he held his ground, holding his weapon firm, ready to block the oncoming onslaught.
His confidence was also in the buff Aeron was able to bestow upon his comrades. He was sure that he could take anything with that kind of strength.
A shadow at his peripheral caught his attention for a second, it wasn’t long before Kiro appeared out of thin air—between the two of them. He twisted his leg, and delved in for a kick, planting his entire leg on one of the heads.
’Rocky’ was uprooted from where he appeared, he zoomed to the opposite direction. Landing hard on the trenches from the ground.
"Aeron, dummy, buff him." He gave the order, waking Aeron up from his stupor.
His attention was gripped by the thing that formed right in front of them. He stared in awe, he was completely mesmerised that he forgot that this was a battlefield.
"Y–Right!"
He got onto it quickly. ’Rocky’ simply bounced off the concrete ground a couple of times, chirping as he went, leaving a trail of his makeshift body.
He managed to land on his feet, the moment he did, the trail he left behind came zooming towards the original body, patching up whatever was broken.
"Revenge. Kill."
Kiro summoned lightning. A shower of them descended on ’Rocky’ each and every eye on his body widened in utter terror before he disappeared from where he was.
He appeared on the other side of the sky, Kiro was however already there waiting for him. Being far away from him made it easier for him predict movement through vibrations.
’Scared of lightning? Let’s see what else.’
He was using his air steps, ’Rocky’ noticed him immediately and closed in. The first punch went for his jaw, he used his left arm to block it. His body was strong, but even he could feel his bones complaining with that impact.
The second one came for his rib, he pushed himself back to avoid it. Not wanting to be very close to ’Rocky’ for long periods of time. The distance was enough but he couldn’t close it further, he was right at his tail.
"Ryu, expand."
And so he did, the tiny staff turned into a thick and long monstrous pillar. It was surprisingly still very light, Kiro swung it, catching ’Rocky’ by surprise and landing it on the ribs.
Like a rocket re-entering the atmosphere, his body’s flames coated his entire body, as he plummeted down to the ground. With a big bang, he landed, creating a small crater.
Kiro had thought about how to use vibrations next. Like many times, this would be another experiment. He used a particular frequency to vibrate his body, not as intense as when he used the jump skill to leave Hubris’ kingdom.
But enough to feel a comforting buzz, his body was producing. It was a wonder how his body was able to withstand something so damaging—but then again, those were the perks of having a dragons constitution.
He didn’t give ’Rocky’ any time to compose himself. As he appeared he threw a punch to his eye filled abdomen, it was pretty because the moment he did, the eyes exploded—unable to endure the high vibrations his punch came with.
But he was still too close, he wanted to get in as many punches. He understood that, that was limited, as he was about to retreat he could feel it.
The effects of time changing, it was too late to retreat. It was too late to do much, as ’Rocky’ ran his now sharp arm straight through Kiro.
