"A divine art?"
[Divine Art - Rank C - All Might]
Viktor had a vague guess as to what that information entailed, but he did not know what he needed to do in order to use it.
The moment he turned his attention back to the black monster, it had already swung its blade arm at him. Once again, Viktor relied on his 30 points in agility to dodge backward.
Swish—
Even though he dodged as fast as he could, the monster still managed to cut his chest and a large part of his robe was torn. If it were not because of the kevlar hidden under it, he would have bled already.
Viktor was thrown a dozen steps due to his hasty retreat. Without delay, the monster charged to chase him again, this time fiercer than ever.
"Djinn, help me out here! How the hell am I supposed to use this skill!"
The moment he spoke those words, Viktor dodged to the left, barely dodging the monster's blade arm.
His heart skipped a beat.
Viktor was forced to have a crash course on using the spirit force in his body while simultaneously dodging the monster's attacks. It was difficult as both required a lot of focus, but Viktor managed to understand the Djinn's explanation while dodging.
Unfortunately, while he was still thinking about the method the Djinn imparted, he made a wrong move. In turn, the black monster fiercely swung at him, forcing him to a corner.
"Blyat!! It's now or never!"
To cast a skill, he would need to gather his spirit force, which was the tingling warm feeling he felt on his solar plexus just on the center part under his chest.
He then thought of the skill in his mind and accessed it, triggering it with intent. Right after, a bright golden symbol flashed in his mind with a notification.
[Divine Art - All Might]
[You don't have enough spirit force, there will be a drawback to your body.]
In his current condition, Viktor had no other choice but to accept whatever might happen to his body because of using this skill.
When he was still a little hesitant, the monster's fist heavily swung toward him. Viktor successfully dodged, causing the monster's fist to get stuck to the wall due to its strength.
"Do it!"
He gritted his teeth.
Suddenly, he felt an explosion of energy from his solar plexus. With the spread of the energy all over his body, another notification came to his mind.
[Your total battle power has been added to strength.]
[23 battle power points added to strength for 3 minutes.]
[Strength - 15 (38)]
[Agility - 30]
[Endurance - 25]
[Battle power - 23 (31)]
A little shocked, Viktor reflexively used both of his hands to catch the monstrous arm swung at his head.
The monster's blade stopped just an inch away from his face.
"Aaarrrggghhh, such power!!"
To his surprise, he was able to keep the monster's arm in place. He even caused it to roar in pain as he gripped its arm as hard as he could.
In retaliation, the monster swung its other arm toward him. At that moment, flashes of his youth martial training came out in the moment of crisis.
He pulled the monster's arm in, and taking advantage of the moment the monster lost its balance, he quickly stepped in and used his foot to kick one of the monster's legs.
Bammmm!!!
The three-meter-tall monster fell to the ground. Viktor swiftly jumped on top of it, and without giving the monster a chance to recover, he made a fist and started punching the monster's head continuously.
Bammm!! Bammm!! Bammm!!
His punches each created a shock that caused the monster to tremble, crushing it bit by bit. As Viktor punched the monster again and again, he began to laugh almost maniacally.
It felt exhilarating!
While he was enjoying his newfound strength, he did not realize that the monster swung one of its fists at him, allowing it to hit him from the side.
Baaammm!!!
Viktor was thrown to the wall, causing him to cough up blood. The crashing impact even caused large cracks to form on the wall behind him.
He paid the price for being reckless.
That punch had the same amount of force that killed him before, but fortunately, he had his high endurance this time, which saved him.
Without Viktor hindering its movements anymore, the monster stood back up and roared. Immediately after, its face began to form back to its previous state and it promptly charged at him.
The large blade slashed at his head.
Clank!
Viktor successfully dodged the blade by squatting. Before the entire blade could even go past him, Viktor quickly punched the monster's body multiple times. His punches created shocks like before, but they were not enough.
Sensing an attack from the side, Viktor dodged to the monster's back and swiftly kicked the back of its knee. He was not sure if it was because its legs were its weakness, but the heavy kick caused the monster to fall to its knees. Without delay, Viktor strangled the monster's thick neck with both arms.
"Aaarrrggghhh!!!" The black monster let out a loud roar. It tried to fight back, but his 38 points in strength showed its advantage.
'More!! Harder!!'
He gritted his teeth and strangled the monster with all his strength. The monster tried to get up and crash him to the wall, but Viktor had no intention of letting go.
Argh!!!
He coughed up blood once again. However, the pain did not weaken his will, but instead made it even more resolute. Viktor screamed out all of his strength until he heard a cracking sound, and then...
He managed to pull the monster entire head apart.
Splat!
Finally, the huge monster dropped headless to the floor, dead.
Viktor's whole body was covered with the monster's disgusting black liquid, but he could not care less about that at the moment. He was still panting out of breath from the crazy fight when an orb flying to his chest and a notification came.
[You have received the spirit energy of a stage three undead - level 20.]
[You have received 3 points in endurance.]
[You have received 5 points of spirit force.]
"I did it!! I f*cking did it!"
