Chapter 87: Rematch
Davi was teleported to a familiar cave, but a little far from where the other students were fighting.
Then the boy’s ears rang as a deep, guttural roar echoed through the cramped cave, vibrating through the jagged stone walls like a war drum signaling his doom.
His breath hitched, and his muscles tensed instinctively. Then, from the dim glow of the bioluminescent vines clinging to the cave walls, a monstrous silhouette emerged, its hulking form shifting ominously in the eerie light.
The beast opened its mouth, revealing massive fangs in a menacing display as its predatory eyes locked onto Davi. It still remembered how this prey had slipped through its grasp last time, but there would be no escape today. This time, the monster would make sure to finish the hunt.
So his long arms glowed faintly, as electricity ran around his body. Then he advanced forward with terrifying speed. The air whistled as the creature’s limbs sliced through it, each movement radiating raw power.
Seeing that monster, which for some reason reminded him of his father, the boy inevitably felt an old fear course through his body. Still, he managed to dodge the first strike at the last moment.
His enemy was absurdly fast for its size, but that still wouldn’t be enough to catch Davi.
"This time, the outcome will be different," the boy vowed to himself.
He took a deep breath, pushing out all unnecessary emotions as his mind prepared for the battle ahead.
His stance changed in an instant. The adrenaline burned through his veins, drowning any thought that wasn’t victory. Everything around him faded away; there was no fear, doubt, or hesitation. Just the enemy before him.
His gaze, now cold and intimidating, fixed on the creature. Every one of its movements was analyzed with precision, for Davi knew that one mistake could be fatal.
