Chapter 95 - Lightning Speed

Lightning struck my arm sending a jolt all throughout my body. The pain was hellish but I endured it. Once I couldn't feel the pain anymore I lowered my arm and looked at it. Small jolts of electricity shot out from it. I let out a sigh of relief and lowered my arm. I looked directly at the army of Rens and glared at them.

"I'll take you all out before this spell runs out." I said, running over to the Rens.

Before they could even react I punched the first one in the chest causing him to crash into the Rens behind him. One tried to attack me from behind but I dodged their attack. I slashed Genki through the Ren and moved on to the next one. I used Genki to launch me into a clone and slammed into him. I jumped off him and fired a beam at him. While I was in the air I looked for another Ren to attack and went for the one on my left.

I used a beam to propel me towards them but quickly moved away once I felt their bloodlust. This Ren was the real one and was much stronger than any of the clones here.

"There's no point in keeping my clones up any longer. I'd just be wasting my energy at that point." Ren said.

The army of Rens suddenly disappeared leaving only one Ren left, the real one. Without hesitation I ran in front of him and swung my sword. Ren ducked underneath it and punched me in the stomach. I pushed through the pain and punched him across the face causing his head to turn.

I jumped back and kept a close eye on him. Ren slowly turned his head revealing his bloodied nose. He wiped the blood off of him all while keeping his eyes on me.

"Guess I'll have to actually start trying now." Ren said.

Ren suddenly appeared next to me and punched me across the face sending my flying back. I stabbed Genki into the ground so I could slow myself down but before I could stop moving Ren appeared above me and elbowed me in the back causing me to hit the ground hard.

I felt myself getting picked up and was thrown into the craters wall. I groaned in pain as I fell back onto the ground. I slowly picked myself up and looked as Ren as he was walking towards me. I clenched my fists and ran towards him.

I swung my arm but Ren blocked it and threw another punch at me face. I just barely dodged his attack and went for another punch.

"Honestly, all you do is rush me. Why don't you try something more interesting for once?" Ren said, kicking me away before I could attack.

He was completely right. Even though I was faster and stronger my attacks were still predictable. So what could I do to catch him off guard?
