Chapter 134: Chapter 133 - Battle at the Lotus Tower(Part 4)
Point-of-View: Aurora Pretorius
———————————————————————————
I raced across as Lucifer raised his palm in my direction, firing out a couple of sharp, rapid Negative Blasts from my mouth at him as I stayed out of the line of his palms.
As he suddenly formed a heavy gravity field, I sent several dark streaks shooting out at him from my Shadow Cat, trying to grab hold of him as he swiftly flew up.
He then blasted out black flames at me as he rapidly swooped down towards me, forming a ripping sphere of black water and wind in his hand.
I blocked the black flames with my Shadow Cat, before springing back as he closed in and rapidly expanded his swirling water and wind sphere towards me, narrowly avoiding the blast as I sent one of my shadowy arms extending towards him, grabbing hold of him and slamming him onto the ground, as his attack tore apart the concrete.
As I began to crush him, he grabbed the arm and destroyed it with his bare hands, breaking free before blasting out a huge wave of black flames in my direction.
I quickly intensified the density of my shroud as much as possible, blocking the flames, before he suddenly closed in on me as the flames faded, slamming his fist onto my shroud with immense force.
Severe cracks spread out from the point of impact, breaking slightly as I got sent flying back, crashing onto a tall pole with a loud clang, my Shadow Cat absorbing the impact, but it amplified the damage that my shroud had sustained.
As he shot towards me, nearing me before I could repair the damage, a blur suddenly zipped across in my peripheral towards him, a furry foot slamming onto Lucifer’s face and sending sending him rapidly flying across at a breakneck speed, crashing onto the base of the tower with immense force.
It was the Werewolf guy...he’s almost as fast as I am, and probably a bit stronger too. I know it’s a full moon tonight and all, but still, wow. And now that I take a closer look using Appraisal...his Aura is a lot more immense than the Werewolves I encountered in Hungary.
"Let me take a crack at him, ’kay?" He remarked with a grin, before zipping after Lucifer rapidly.
As Lucifer got back onto his feet with a furious look on his face, he shot towards the Werewolf in response, drawing back his fist as he swirled black flames around it.
Right as they closed in on each other, Lucifer drove his fist towards the Werewolf, who ducked beneath it with ease, before slamming his foot onto Lucifer’s torso, eliciting a gasp of pain from him, and then blasting out a deafening howl from his mouth from point-blank range, dazing Lucifer and sending him stumbling back.
His claws then glowed, before he swung them across, firing out a rapid, slashing shockwave towards the Fallen Angel and slicing off his right arm and a bit of his right wing, before bending his knees and leaping at Lucifer with immense force, closing in on him in the blink of an eye and whipping his foot across, slamming it onto the side of his head and sending him rapidly flying across and skidding along the concrete.
It’s almost like...he’s reading Lucifer’s movements. Not exactly predicting them, but more like reacting to the timing. Has he memorized Lucifer’s timing of his attacks?
Huh, I’m not quite sure why exactly, but that kinda frustrates me...I won’t lose out! freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
As I formed a massive, swirling Negative Blast and rapidly extended my shadowy arm towards Lucifer, the Werewolf noticed and swiftly sprang back with a smirk as he fired out a couple more slashing shockwaves from his claws at Lucifer, deeply gashing his legs and causing him to collapse onto his knees before he could get back on his feet.
Lucifer began to fly out of the way in alarm, but he was too slow, as my attack struck and obliterated his lower half, his top half quickly flying up as blood rained down from his waist, a small crater left in the wake of my attack.
"Wow, nice! But looks like he’s already regenerating-...woah, his clothes too?" Remarked the Werewolf in surprise.
"Yeah, I was taken aback by that too," I responded wryly.
"I refuse to be humiliated by you damned mortals any further...I shall kill you both!" Declared Lucifer with an enraged look on his face, as wind and black flames began swirling around him.
"That move again? I won’t let you!" I snapped, as I sent both my shadowy arms rapidly extending out towards him, reaching out to grab him before he could form the tornado.
Suddenly the flames and wind dissipated as he rapidly swooped down towards me, zipping past my arms and evading as I extended several dark spikes out towards him.
The Werewolf leapt out of the way as he fired out a sharp blast of wind at us, as I swiftly intensified the defense of my Shadow Cat, the wind blast knocking me off balance.
As Lucifer closed in on me, the Werewolf fired out a slashing shockwave at him, which he blocked by folding his right wing over his arm, the wing getting torn to shreds as he slammed his fist onto my shroud, breaking through and striking my arms as I crossed them in front of myself defensively.
A twinge of pain erupted across my right forearm as he fractured it, sending me flying back before I whipped my tail out and grabbed onto a lamppost, halting myself and landing, as the Werewolf directed a deafening howl at Lucifer, who was zipping towards him.
Lucifer formed a thick wall of black water in front of himself to absorb the impact of the sound blast, before snapping as he closed in on the Werewolf... freewebnøvel.com
"Now, kneel before me!"
The Werewolf froze and his knees began to bend, before he gritted his teeth and resisted it, but that brief moment gave Lucifer an opening, as he blasted out a powerful black fireball at the Werewolf.
The flames struck the Werewolf square on the middle of his torso, the force of the blast blowing him back several meters and crashing onto a flight of stairs painfully, eliciting a sharp gasp of pain from him.
As Lucifer raised his palm and used his telekinesis to raise a jagged piece of metal and began to swing it in towards the Werewolf, I took aim and fired out a Negative Slash, slicing the metal in half and causing Lucifer to lose control of it, before I raced towards him at top speed, whipping out several black streaks in his direction as I closed in on him.
He evaded my shadowy whips and shot towards me, ducking as I slashed at his head, before driving his knee up towards my midsection.
I swiftly sprang up and blunted his knee strike with my palms, before whipping both my legs forward and across inwards at him, aiming to slam them against his sides.
He quickly jumped back in response, my feet barely grazing him, as he then raised his palm in my direction. I hurriedly whipped out my tail and pierced it into the ground, trying to yank myself out of the way, as his telekinetic push struck my right shoulder painfully.
He then swiftly raised his other palm towards me as I pulled myself away, rapidly pulling me in towards him, and as I closed in on him, he broke through my shroud and grabbed my throat, before slamming me onto the ground, the back of my Shadow Cat absorbing most of the impact.
I then gritted my teeth, before several shadowy spikes burst out of the ground and pierced through him, which I’d extended out from my tail, which was still plunged inside the ground.
"Why, you...!?" He snapped, as he suddenly blasted me with several, intense telekinetic pushes, cracks on the ground appearing and spreading out further and further around me as I let out a gasp of pain, my Shadow Cat completely gone and my ribcage severely fractured.
I coughed out blood as he struck me again, my vision blurring...crap, not good, one more of those, and my ribs will end up puncturing my lungs, and at worst, my heart.
As he began to fire again, he was suddenly sent stumbling off to his left as a powerful sound blast struck his right side, dazing him, right as the Werewolf closed in on him, looking pretty pissed, and slammed his fist onto the side of his head with a loud crunch.
He then slammed his knee onto Lucifer’s side, before rapidly spinning and aiming a rising spin kick at his throat. Right before he could strike, Lucifer caught his heel with a growl, a dark look in his eyes.
I’m...I’m not done yet. As I painstakingly got back onto my feet with a wince, Lucifer suddenly swung the Werewolf straight at me, my eyes widening in alarm as he slammed onto me, knocking the wind out of me as we collapsed in a heap. Ow...
"I shall turn you both to ash! There will be nothing left of you!" Snapped Lucifer, as he hovered over us with a ridiculously massive fireball, growing rapidly and swirling violently, the air around it shimmering wildly.
"Oh, shit...," Muttered the Werewolf wide-eyed, as he began to swing it down at us.
There’s no dodging that-...huh? Suddenly, the flames dissipated as a breach appeared behind Lucifer, his body shimmering and being pulled into the breach.
"No...no, not now, all I needed was a few more seconds!" He snapped in dismay, before glaring at us furiously, "Consider yourselves lucky, mortals...there will be no such luck next time, no matter how long it takes, I swear that I will kill you!"
"He...he got dragged back into Hell, I think. Guess he’s out of energy to sustain his presence in this world, he must have forgotten to keep track of it in his rage," I sighed in relief, as the Werewolf reverted back to his normal form, "Thanks for your help, dude."
"O-oh, uh...don’t mention it," He grinned a bit awkwardly, as he began to try and get up, before slipping with a surprised yelp...and his right hand landing on my chest, "Huh...didn’t think clichés like this happened in real life-...ow!"
Before I could think, I punched the side of his face and knocked him away, sitting up with a start, before letting out a groan as pain erupted across my chest, as I agitated my fractured ribs.
"Damn, this hurts...," I muttered with a grimace, laying back down on the ground with a sigh.
"W-wow, you really pack a punch...and, uh, sorry ’bout that," Apologized the Werewolf sheepishly.
