Chereads / Chaos Incarnate: Homer's Pen / Chapter 53 - Light

Chapter 53 - Light

I entered the arena, opposite to me, my opponent entered.

I had tried to find some info on him but all I could find was a speculation that his powers might be based on his emotions in some capacity, a big might at that.

It was weird, his hair was brownish, during the battle I had seen him fight he had had white or black hair, depending on the power he was using.

He terrified me in some capacity to be honest, in his last fight, he had defeated Kirby with seemingly no effort.

He smiled at me and held out his hand.

"You can call me Balance, I hope we have a great fight ... Homer, right?"

I shook his hand and nodded. He looked at my limp arm, understanding what was going on.

"I'm surprised you were able to defeat all your opponents without using that arm, but I assure you, you will need it in this fight."

This wasn't even him being cocky, I had seen him fight and knew that if I didn't use both my arms I would be defeated easily.

We both yelled ready and moved. His hair turned to the pale white and a smile appeared on his face.

He formed a blade out of Light, it was bright enough to blind me. His attack was one of pure elegance, flowing like a river.

I barely dodged only to see the second blade rushing towards me at an unprecedented speed.

This dude was fast, scary fast. I saw that I couldn't possibly dodged it so I held up my limp arm to use the armor and tank the hit.

A large cut appeared in the armour, showing that it didn't even matter, I would not be able to tank hits for long.

This was one of those moments where I hated the fact that I used light armor, it made me faster yes, but put me in a disadvantagous position in a battle of speed where my opponent was faster.

I was pulled out of my thoughts when another blade came rushimg towards me, this time, I stopped it with my daggers, at least I tried, the blade cleaved throught it like butter.

I looked at him in shock while I moved backwards, dodging as much of his attacks as I could.

I spread my wings and went airborn, I was also in the process of using void energy to make two daggers, using the red and the gold seperately.

He started throwing balls of Light at me, they moved at speeds that were near the speed of sound, I was lucky when I was even able to dodge them.

It felt like I had been cut by countless knives but this was only the beginning. He had had enough of waiting for me to get down so he sommined a bow made of light and shot me in the wing.

The arrow moved so fast the is just seemed like a laser had been shot out of the bow.

While I was falling I was finally done with creating my two new knives. I threw my second old one at him, it was immediately cut by him but it gave me enough time to get up after falling to the ground.

Brandishing my two new knives, I rushed towars him. I didn't look at them then but afterwards, I had looked them over a lot, trying to find out what they were even made of.

My previous knives had been made with primordial steel, well, made was a strong word, I had formed it using the pen but I had specified that material.

These ones seemed to be made from something harder than Tanzanite, they were sharper than Excalibur and they also looked cool.

The one made with the golden energy gave of an air of control, it had been inlaid with a long red gem that followed the center of the blade and the handle had the head of a regal dragon. The blade otself was golden in colour.

The one made with the red energy on the other had formed into a black blade with the same red gem in the center, it had the had of an enraged black dragon on it's handle. The blade was entirely black.

When I attacked him he tried to stop it with his light blades, expecting them to also be cut like my previous ones, the tables turned for me at that moment as they went to the light blades with ease and were able to cut him.

His face contorted in anger and his blades turned black before losing their integrity and dissapearing.
