Chapter 1543: Why don’t you just die?
As the battlefield crackled with the energy of their clash, Lonos grudgingly acknowledged that underestimating Rain’s capabilities any further would be a grave error, one that he could ill afford in the heat of their confrontation.
Lonos charged at Rain and then immediately smashed his face with a rotating elbow strike and, followed by body slams from all directions. When Rain suddenly turned and moved his arms to block the next attack and grabbed him, Lonos moved his right hand to pierce his neck like a spear... in that short window of time, Rain smiled, and then his body suddenly jumped backward when Lonos got close enough... making his chin being hit by a summersault.
Lonos opened his eyes widely thanks to the pain and then that gave Rain the chance to land already in his fighting stance. While moving his upper body to the side, Rain stepped in, and then he swung his body in the opposite direction like a pendulum before punching Lonos with all his might.
Instantly, Rain’s body blurred as he began to move from one side to the other and launched hook after hook on Lonos face... he didn’t even have time to let his body be pushed... it felt like time had stopped as he began to be punched left and right.
"Now this is what I am talking about..." Rain thought. "With this, then I can finally..."
Solving things with his fists was Rain’s specialty, so doing that made him feel truly excited... The liquid from Lonos’s body began to fall around, but soon, he recovered in time when Rain slowed for a moment, thanks to the exhaustion. He kicked Rain’s stomach after raising his legs and pushed himself backward and Rain in the opposite direction.
"Such a simple attack, and yet..."
At that rate, Lonos truly will have to show all of his might even though he has two other troublesome enemies to deal with... if Rain was at that level, the other two should be on the same or even higher, considering their lack of involvement in the battle until now.
"I suppose it can’t be helped..."
Lonos’s aura underwent another transformation, pulsating with a newfound intensity as he focused his energies on his hands. With an amazing display of temporal mastery, the raw energy coalesced and sculpted itself into the shape of a sword, its form a testament to the ethereal nature of its creation.
The temporal sword shimmered with an otherworldly brilliance, its blade seeming to blur and flicker as if it existed beyond the confines of conventional reality. Strands of temporal energy danced along its edge, casting an iridescent glow that illuminated the darkened expanse of their battleground. Each side of the sword seemed to ripple with the ebb and flow of time itself, lending it an air of primordial power that resonated with Lonos’s powerful presence.
