Chapter 25: True Battle Against The Crimson Monster
The Crimson Rabbit descended upon Leon with its big figure covering all the sunlight from reaching him. Sharp razor claws came right sweeping at him, making the Rabbit’s intention clear.
Leon didn’t bother defending against the claws because he knew he couldn’t, so he used the short swords to parry one of them while using his Iron Skin and ducked down under the other one.
Then, he jumped into action as he used his speed and also his skill Sprint Boost to dance around the Crimson Rabbit while also attacking it occasionally.
Cuts began to form on its thick skin full of white fur as it tried to catch him again and again. However, Leon kept his full attention on the monster and narrowly dodged a lot of attacks.
Some of them even had the monster’s claws graze his cheeks, which earned him a flaring pang of pain, but it wasn’t enough to break his concentration.
He gave his all—everything he had learned, everything he could muster up—to learn the dual wielding against this foe. Of course, it was also because he couldn’t find any opening to kill the monster.
He groaned in frustration as he bent backwards to dodge a paw attack and then jumped backwards, doing a backflip before once again entering the battle.
His muscles spasmed as he slid under one of its limbs that were coming to skewer him and dug his short sword deep in its body with full force.
Blood splattered out like a fountain behind him, but his focus was only on the front. He heard the Crimson Rabbit screech in pain.
Leon snickered and quickly used his Iron Skin as he braced for the impact. The Crimson Rabbit had not stayed idle and kicked him with its hind legs.
He didn’t have time to dodge, and neither did he want to, so he used his momentum and boosted physique to jump on its hind legs.
The impact threw him into the sky, and his knees felt like they were on the verge of breaking. The Crimson Rabbit’s hind legs were the strongest part of its body, and it showed by how the monster used them to jump its massive body around.
