[VRMMO] Dead One

(Okay! I may or may not be bit fucked here!) – thought Alamin as he was locked in a combat with Long who was launching blow after blow in the Alamain's direction, forcing the man on the total defense.

Alamin tried countering with barriers or teleportation skills, trying to buy himself some time as well as to create some distance… Only to then have Long's fist right in front of his face again and again.

"[Demonic Blade: Heaven Slayer]!" – Alamin combined his two swords into a great sword, before then unleashing his ultimate demonic attack, firing off a demonic blade that finally managed to push back the martial artist.

(Fuck me! The hell is going on here?!) – thought Alamin as he turned back his great sword into pair of single blades, before then firing off flying slashes of demonic and holy energy at the monster martial artist, forcing his foe on the defense.

(I did heard that Long is called "Magic Warrior Slayer", but this is too much!)

(He is owning my ass right now!) – thought Alamin as Long suddenly took flight into the skies, before then using his grown spikes as projectiles, raining down the attacks and forcing Alamin to deploy a barrier to protect himself.

"!"

(SHIT!) – thought panicking Alamin as he quickly ran away as the monster martial artist crashed in the spot where the man was just standing at.

However, Long still didn't gave up chase as he instantly launched himself with [Berserk Charge] at the Alamin, forcing the swordman to use his own [Berserker Charge] in order to clash into his foe and cause a shockwave blast upon contact of both skills, which pushed both men away.

(Oh? He reacted this quickly?) – thought Long as he tried once again charging at the man, only to get caught off guard as a series of flying slashes came his way, landing several blows before Long could raise up his defense with his wings covered in metal coating.

(Alamin.)

(His main strong point is inhuman reaction time.)

(He knows what to skills to use at the right time.)

(However he also has a solid problem.)

(Anger management.) – thought Long as he tried flying away, only to be met with [Nephalem Art: Judgment], manifesting several spheres of combined energy that were met with Long's [Metal Gate], which easily blocked off all of the attacks.

"[Ravage Blade: Hawk]!" – however, the attack was distraction, as out of nowhere, Alamin was able to teleport behind Long with his [Heavenly Step], before then unleashing his long range attack, a slash attack in form of hawk talon that landed a sold blow on the monster martial artist.

Long tried counter attacking, but then Alamin used [Ravage Blade: Boar], landing a solid blow that knocked back the martial artist.

(When he in the zone, he can time his skills activation at the inhuman rate.) – thought Long as he fired off [Will Of Iron Fist: Bullet], firing a flying fist made out of metal that was met with Alamin's holy barrier, which blocked off the attack.

However, Long then fallowed up with [Tiger Kick], which destroyed the barrier and then was fallowed up with [Turtle Breaker], landing a defense piercing strike.

Long tried to fallow up with [Tiger Breaker], but instead he was met with [Holy Blade: Purging Blade], a bright light of light that scorched Long and once again pushed back the martial artis, leaving behind a scar of light on the monster martial artist's body.

"…"

(As long as I make him panic.) – thought Long.

(As long as I make him insecure.)

(As long as I make him mad in any way and only continue filling it up, he will end up going berserk.)

(But just throwing random insults isn't my style.)

(Still, he is clearly nervous.)

(He started throwing his own most powerful skills.)

(And he even started used [Ravaged Warrior] skills.)

(Epic rarity class that posses many powerful offence-oriented skills.)

(But with an extremely large drawback.)

(Every single skill from that class posse's way too big of a cooldown time.)

(Meaning he can only use them once in battle.)

(And it is not like I bloody want to use them.) – thought Alamin as he was getting ready to counter Long's next attack.

(But considering how much punishment this guy can take without getting pushed back!? Do I really have any other choice by to use up my [Ravaged Warrior] skills.) – thought Alamin as Long once again went on the offensive, unleashing a hail of his quills, while at the same time rushing at the swordman alongside the projectiles.

Alamin used his demonic barrier to counter attack the quills, before then quickly using [Ravaged Blade: Lion], unleashing a powerful AOE slash attack that swallowed the martial artis whole.

"[Weapon Mode: Great Sword]!

"[Ravaged Blade: Rhino]!"

And right in the next instance, Alamin combined his two swords into a great sword, before then thrusting forward his great sword alongside his whole body.

"?!"

However, Long did the exact same move, using the very same [Ravaged Blade: Rhino].

"Wh-"

Before Alamin could understand what just happened, Long upper cut Alamin with a kick.

"[Ravaged Blade: Lion]!" – after knocking Alamin off balance, Long fired off his own [Ravaged Blade: Lion], unleashing a shockwave that swallowed whole Alamin, before moments later he got a surprise [Ravaged Blade: Boar], throwing a nasty fist blow into Alamin's stomach, which had enough force to send Alamin flying.

Long instantly gave chase once again, but Alamin with his quick thinking stabbed the ground with his blade and unleashed [Ravaged Blade: Dragon], unleashing a powerful outburst of energy from underneath Alamin, which formed a column that hit and knocked back the monster martial artis, saving Alamin just in time.

(He also has [Ravaged Warrior]?! What the fuck!?) - thought panicking Alamin.

(So, he used ultimate of the [Ravaged Warrior] class to defend himself?) – thought Long.

(Good.)

(If he used that thing when I was at the full range, I would end up really getting hit badly and end up getting stunned.)

(He is currently either panicking… Or he is didn't had any real choice left.)

(Either way, his HP must be now extremely low.)

(Without any healing, he will definitely die.)

(But he won't let me heal, won't he?) – thought Alamin.

(Fuck me!)

(Each exchange is leaving me with less and less HP, while he can just tank everything, I throw at him!)

(I'm just his freaking punching bag!)

(Should I fire the [Grey Duke] class ultimate?)

(No! He is expecting it!)

(If I throw something like it, he will definitely put up all of his defenses up to block it off!)

(He hasn't used the [Iron Unity] of his [Iron Forge Fighter] skill!)

"[Will Of Iron: Champion]." – Long activated his skill, causing a silver like aura to go off his body.

"[Will Of Iron: Dragon Slayer]!" – Long rushed in with metallic wings manifesting behind his back, before then launching himself like a torpedo, which almost impaled Alamin who barely in time managed to use [Hell Escape] to teleport away.

(This is one of the most annoying skills I need to look out for alongside his [Iron Unity], which is straight up [Metal Glory] on the steroids, boosting all of his stats, especially the defense stats way to hell up.) – thought Alamin as he fired off his barrage of demonic and heavenly bullets at the monster martial artist.

(And the [Four Seasons: Breaker Of Wars].)

(That latter is something I really need to fear.)

(It boost all of his stats, straight up doubling them all if I'm not wrong.)

(However, that skills has a heavy downside.)

(It devours his stats with each passing moment and he cannot turn off that skill.)

(Honestly, I can't survive it by stalling long enough until his own skills devours him.)

(If he uses the [Iron Unity] with that skill, he will fucking kill me on the spot.) – thought Alamin as Long rushed at the man and used [Will Of Iron: Drake Shot], hitting Alamin's barrier and shattering it and landing a solid blow on the martial artist.

(Does he think he doesn't need it to beat me?!) – thought Alamin, who got instantly pissed off upon thought about getting destroyed without having to force his opponent go all out on him.

And that simple thought reminded him of ClownFrog.

Each time they met.

And each time he destroyed the man.

That man's pride was damaged and what Long was doing right now could been seen by him as 'putting salt' on the wound.

(ARE YOU MOCKING ME! YOU BASTARD!) – thought Alamin as he rushed at Long, surprising the martial artist, but not completely as he raised up his arms, which blocked off the great sword.

"[Weapon Mode: Twin Sword]!" – but the first attack was faint as Alamin split his sword into two and swung his second blade from underneath Long.

However, with the change of the blade, Long didn't need to use both of his hands to block off the blade from above, as he moved one of his hands to grab the incoming blade, which slashed the martial artist paw at the cost of stopping it.

Long grabbed both of the blades and pulled forward Alamin, before then head butting him right in the face.

"…"

(Why did he did something as stupid as that?) – thought Long who kept his guard up as the swordman rose up.

(I mean, doing that kind of attack will mean nothing if I can just block each of his blades with one….)

(Ah… I get it.)

(He finally lost it.)

(Was it because he was getting cornered?)

(Honestly, I was expecting this last bit longer…. But I guess I overpriced him.)

(This fight is now good as over.)
