chapter 895: finishing touch
"tch!"
as expected, the 'pure burst' didn't touch o'jog as a result of his [perfect protection], but the whole spatial swap thing caused his senses to get a little disoriented. as someone who had elevated senses to such a degree, a sudden swap like that proved difficult to adjust to.
however, the moment he acclimated to his new position, rey was already right next to him- swinging his blade in his direction.
"just give it up!" o'jog gritted his teeth now, evidently mad that the students didn't know when to stop.
he sent a pulse towards rey-or, r'ai... the way he saw it--but the boy easily cut through it with his blade and advanced even quicker than ever, slashing at him with the edge of his blade.
~whoosh!~
o'jog dodged, just in case.
however, he swiftly reached out for rey's torso, his fist tightened for a ferocious blow. without hesitating, he poured his strength into the blow and sent it flying towards him.
but-
~bzzz!~
his position with rey was swapped at that exact moment, which rendered his punch useless and sent his senses into another state of confusion.
before he could acclimate this time, he heard a ringing sound in his head.
it came from rey's kick.
"gahh!" o'jog stumbled back, but before he could fully regain his focus, rey had already closed in on him, ready for another series of successive strikes.
his hands quickly became a flurry, sending his blade slashing and carving into the air, blurring even more with every new motion that he made. it nearly overwhelmed o'jog, but that was only before his senses returned and he had tolerated enough.
opening his mouth angrily, he released a powerful surge of energy in the form of any dragon's primary and ultimate attack.
'[dragon breath: chaos]!'
the chaos energy flowed from his gaping mouth as it devastated everything around-from the space, to the shattering ground, and finally... to the two who were causing him so much trouble despite being mere students.
'unlike my other moves, dragon breath isn't magical or external... so it can't be disrupted.' it was a natural move that all dragons possessed, though they had variants.
'let's see you get past-'
~whooosh!~
rey jumped through the chaotic black and purple flames, the fiery storm seemingly licking his body as he dashed forward-blade in hand, and determination written all over his face.
'what? he survived that? no... no way!'
anyone hit by such a dragon breath was doomed to die. of course, he didn't actually intend for the two students to die, which is why he mostly focused the attack around them and all over the ground surrounding him.
however, despite that, rey had jumped through the flames and was charging towards him. the craziest part was that he didn't appear harmed.
'h-how...?!' o'jog's blue eyes reflected the boy's wild smile as he charged towards him. ~swooosh!~
a slashing sound interrupted his thoughts, causing him to block with his raised arm. ~clang!~
however, there was no need to rely on other skills in this case.
all he needed...
"hehehe... hehehehe... heheheheee!"
... were his fists!
~pow!~
with one clean strike, he sent rey flying backwards-tumbling over the stationary lucielle. the two crashed on each other, and while they were on the verge of falling-still slowed down as a result of his elevated sense of time-he prepared another present for them. "[perfect expansion]." with this, he recalled the first move he would have used to eliminate them, to begin with. in the end, they gave him more trouble than expected, but that didn't mean their outcome would be any different from the others.
"[absolute destruction]."
-b000000000000000m!!!
a powerful surge of energy radiated all over the stage at that instant, creating tremors on the ground that even affected the spectators' seats. o'jog watched all of this calmly as both of his
hands recovered in an instant.
all the damage he received were already healed, and he felt as good as new.
as for his opponents-
"urgh..."
"i... don't... ahhh..."
-they had been completely knocked out from his final attack.
"haa..." o'jog leaked out a sigh as he approached the two, his head shaking slowly. "you guys
really surprised me."
however, in the end, there could only be one winning prodigy.
and that was him.
