Chapter 175 - Special Technique

The two huge fireballs then came toward Gen, and he then said, "You're going to have to do more than that if you want to stop me.", and then he lowered his spear further.

The pressure that everyone was feeling  then increased considerably, and the fireballs that were coming toward him began to slow down, to a point where they stopped and disappeared.

Seeing this, the Blood demon said, "Hm .... I didn't expect you to still be able to increase the pressure."

And Gen said, "Well, I never said I couldn't do that."

"I'll take that into account this time. Mind, stand up. I'm going to need your help."

The Mind demon then said, "I can't do it. It was hard enough to stay on my knees before, imagine standing up now that he's increased the pressure."

And the Blood demon said, "If you want I can help you, but then I'll have to use one of my feet, and I'm not used to using it."

"Please don't!"

"Then stand up. I only need you to help me once. After that we'll get out of here."

"Ah! Okay, I'll try."

The Mind demon then started to get up, and little by little he got off the ground to the point where he was on his knees, and then he said, "Come on quickly, I don't know how long I can hold on. What do you need me to do?"

And the Blood demon said, "I need you to gather the fire that I'm going to create."

"That's it?"

"Yes."

"Hold on. How much fire are you planning to gather?"

"I'm planning to gather at least four."

"At least? You want to burn this whole place down? Four is already more than enough."

"If you consider the pressure we're feeling right now it's really more than enough, but I don't think he's used everything he has yet."

"What? Are you sure about that?"

"It's almost certain. Don't you see how relaxed he is? He surely still has something in store."

"That's right, that makes sense."

"I'll get started. Get ready to pick them up."

"Don't worry, I'm paying attention."

The Blood demon then started moving his fingers, and made the Fist demon, and the Leg demon generate two small fireballs.

The Mind Demon then picked them up and put them together in his hand, and then the Blood Demon made them generate two more fireballs.

The Mind Demon again picked them up and put them together with the ones already in his hand.

The Blood Demon then asked, "Do you think it's still possible to continue?"

And the Mind Demon said, "We can add two more, maybe four more, before the fire starts to dissipate."

The Blood Demon then said, "Let's use two more then.", and then he made them both generate two more small fireballs.

The Mind Demon took them, put them together, and then said, "Okay. We have to be quick, I don't know how long this fire will last."

And the Blood Demon said, "Okay, you can start and I'll come with you."

"Okay. Here I come."

The Mind demon then opened his hand, and a small fireball, smaller than the ones that were made before appeared.

He then put it between him and Gen, and punched the air towards Gen saying, "Fire Destroyer!", and then a gust of wind began to stir up all the fire that had concentrated inside the small fireball.

The Blood demon then wiggled his fingers behind the other two demons' backs, and then they struck the air in front of them.

Right after that, the Blood demon said, "Air Destroyer!", and then two gusts of air were generated, but they weren't going towards Gen, but towards the little fireball, and as they reached it, the two gusts of air caused the little fireball to turn into a sea of fire that was advancing towards Gen.

Gen then looked at the sea of fire that was coming towards him, and realized that the pressure his technique was putting on it was hardly affecting it, and then he said, "Impressive. I didn't expect you guys to be able to do something like this. It looks like I'm going to be forced to complete the technique."

Upon hearing this, the Mind demon said, "Complete the technique? It wasn't complete yet?"

Gen then lowered his spear more, to the point where it was almost touching the ground, and saw that even after increasing the pressure, the sea of fire kept coming towards him without any problem, and then he said, "It seems that there's really no other way."

He  then touched the ground with his spear, and from that moment on everything changed.

The sea of fire that was coming towards him quickly went to the ground and disappeared as if it had been crushed by something, and the demons that were under the effect of his pressure quickly went to the ground, being completely stuck to him, except for the blood demon, who had his hands on his legs, while wiggling his fingers.

Seeing this, Gen said, "Impressive. I didn't expect that any of you would be able to withstand this technique, but it doesn't look like you'll be able to hold out much longer.", and then Gen kept the pressure on them.

The Blood demon was doing his best to stay on his feet, but it was getting harder and harder with each passing second.

He was on the verge of falling and  then began to think, 'Damn. Looks like I have no choice but to take the bandages off.', so he took one hand off one leg, and brought it to his other hand.

He then touched the black bandages that were on his fingers, and just as he was about to pull them off, a voice said, "Gen! Take it easy. Don't you think that's enough?"

Gen then looked in the direction of the voice and saw Bram approaching him.

He then said, "That's right. I told you I was going to go easy on them. All right, I think that's enough.", and then Gen lifted his spear off the ground, and with that, the pressure that was there disappeared.

When he felt that the pressure was gone, the blood demon fell on his butt on the floor, panting, and then he said, "Body, do you know him?"

And Bram, the Body demon, said, "Yes. I followed Gen out of curiosity and we became friends."

Gen then said, "Hey, who told you we were friends?"

And Bram said, "Don't say that, Gen! You're going to hurt my feelings."

"Hahaha, okay, I guess we can consider the relationship we have as one of friendship."

"Thank you."

"Well, I've done what I wanted to do here, so I'll be going."

"Okay, but next time you don't have to be so hard on my friends, Gen."

"They just need to pay attention about what and who they are talking about, and none of this will happen again."

"What do you mean, Gen?"

"Well, I'm in a hurry. Ask the one with the bandage on his head and he will explain what happened."

"Okay."

Gen then went towards Briny, and when he arrived, she greeted him saying, "Wow Gen, I didn't know you were this strong. It didn't look like it, but you were using your King level essence weren't you?"

And Gen said, "No. I wasn't using it."

"You weren't? Then how did you do all that without an essence?"

"I could only do that because I used special technique."

"Special technique?"

"Yes."

"What's that? I've never heard of anything like that."

"Well, I don't really understand it either, but from what my master explained to me at the time, they're some kind of techniques that are etched into the world."

"Etched into the world? What do you mean?"

"I don't really know either, but he told me that when you use this technique, the world recognizes it and reproduces the necessary effects. For example, let's say it's a fireball technique. If you learn to use the technique, even without the essence of fire, you will be able to generate a fireball, because it is as if the world understands that it is natural that when you execute that technique a fireball appears. Did you get it, or are you still confused?"

"I got it. How interesting these special techniques are."

"Yeah. I've never seen anything like it before, but enough talk. Let's move on. Where are Lina and Raja?"

"Come with me. Alex and Kimi have already gone towards them. They are hiding nearby."
