Chapter 129: Gid Lucione Deviluke 2

Chapter 129: Gid Lucione Deviluke 2

(Ryoto's pov)

I shot out the lighting after a charge-up, but I was aware that it wouldn't be able to do anything, so I used my fire to create smoke dense enough to block Gid's vision.

Gid, annoyed by it, used his tail to blow the smoke away, but it was too late. I already used my eyes to let Gid see me attacking from the side.

He reacted to the illusion by turning his eyes to it.

At the same time, I attacked from the front. I synchronized my footstep with illusions footsteps so Gid wouldn't realize that he was seeing an illusion.

When I was in his range, however, I noticed that only his eyes were focused on the fake me. The rest of his body was ready to attack me. There were minimal signs of that, but I caught them all before he did anything, so I quickly used both of my hands to shoot fire at him and repel myself from him.

After the smoke disappeared, I saw unharmed Gid with a few burn marks on his clothes. He looked more pissed off, and this is not good. I could practically see the vein on his forehead.

Gid: "It looks like I allowed you to play for too long. Your illusions are impressive, unrecognizable from reality, but I couldn't hear you moving from one place to another, so it was too obvious that I was seeing your illusion. But enough of this, let's end this."

It was his turn to attack. I could follow him with my eyes, but my body was another story... is what I would say if I didn't have prediction calculation. Thanks to this ability, I could still somehow dodge it as my body had time to react, but I could feel my eyes getting warmer.

The whole time he was attacking, I was in defense as he didn't let me do anything. I was carefully considering the punches and kicks I should dodge and which one I should defend against.

As I have suspected, every one of his punches and kicks hurt like a bitch, but I could still use them afterward, so I count it as a win. I found it a little strange, but I didn't have time to question it as I was using most of my brain functions to calculate and trying not to die, of course.

As I crossed my arms and strategically covered them in Haki around the area, he'll hit, but it was my mistake as this time, the punch was more powerful than the ones before. It broke my guard, leaving my arms raised and my face unguarded.

Seeing this, he smirked, and I knew what was coming if I didn't do something. My face will have a close meeting with his small but not delicate fist.

I did three things in that instant.

First, I covered my face in Haki in case the other two things failed and hoped for the best.

Gid: "Quite the blood you've got here."

Ryoto: "Sometimes it feels like a bane of my existence and the reason for my bad luck."

I got up, wiped the blood coming from my nose, and cast it away, making a few new holes in the road.

Gid: "But I must say you are more durable than I gave you credit for, but it looks like you can still bleed when you stop dodging like an annoying mosquito."

Ryoto: "Sad that I can't say the same about you."

It seems that I would need to use more blood to even harm him, but that's not efficient in any way.

Worst of all, it was only about two minutes since we started. I'm literally and figuratively fucked.

As I was in a staring contest with Gid, a concentrated stream of water flew at Gid that he, as usual, cut in half with his tail.

Jugemu: "I suppose the appropriate thing to say in this situation is, am I late to the party, is it not?"

Jugemu came to my help with a smile.

I suddenly see hope in surviving a bit longer.
