Chapter 25 - Red vs Damon

"my pleasure." he said as his fists became electrified.

the red orc readied his axe just before they both rushed in. The orc swung his axe while Damon threw a punch charging forward.

Damon felt his fists could block and over power Red's axe attack, but ended up getting swatted away like a fly.

Pow!

ahhhhhhhhhh! Damon flew back crashing into a building.

crackle!

static!

pop pop!

Red walked towards Damon with static popping off his wet body as if it was nothing.

Damon got up and pushed himself out of the house walls stepping forward.

"mmmmm this power of yours tickles a little." the red orc says with a jagged smile readying his axe.

"he's not affected by my electricity even with the rain making it worse."

"come on ant, I haven't got all day.....besides I got a bitch to play with and fry up later on." he said looking at Alice take on a few goblins.

Damon once again rushed in, but not carelessly this time as he swung out his arm creating an electric whip.

wahpow! the whip sounded off like a rifle being shot as it snapped hitting red's raised arm.

arrr! red's arm was pushed back as Damon swung his second whip wrapping around the orcs other arm.

grrrrrr! grrrrr! red gritted and grinded his teeth as Damon added more ki into the whips. red's eyes widened,but not with disbelief,instead with rage as he felt one of his knees dropping to the ground.

Damon had one of his whips around red's arm shocking the hell out of him making him partially collapse to the ground.

Damon then dispersed his first whip and while conjuring a baseball size electric ball he attempted to push it into the orcs chest when the orcs armor began to glow orange suddenly surrounding parts of the orcs body with a weird hot heat.

Boom! an orange light crashed into Damon as the whip loosened around red's arm. the orc jumped up smashing his fists into Damon's chest.

gwah! a little blood splattered from Damon's mouth.

the basilisk and Alice along with her soul beast verglas had finished with the few enemies they were fighting as the basilisk rushed in to help Damon.

Damon activated static jump giving him control as he was flung back by the wave of energy and punch. he shot back forward with a lightning fast flying kick to red's gut making him stumble back many feet.

"no stay back Javaline, you too Alice...I got this bastard." Damon says as he wipes blood from his lips.

the orc moved back in swinging his axe as Damon dodged and punched. this went on for a full minute before Damon realized his punches and kicks were being decreased in power somehow.

"the hell is going on I'm sure the amount of strength I'm putting into my attack are being weakened but how." unlike all the others this bastard can use magic and he's wearing armor unlike all the others who wore wooded and simple leather armor and rags while using basic weapons."

while thinking Damon hesitated on a kick which got him bashed in the head with the blunt handle of the axe.

arrr! crack! Damon's nose broke on contact along with a fracture face and jaw as he was flung back again. blood poured from his face as the orc began laughing.

"what's wrong little ant." the orc said as his axe began glowing orange it was a very big battle axe with double sided blades. it had a red and gold handle with multiple orange and red rubies that spiraled down the handle of it.

Damon cast recovery mist as the orc slowly and confidently walked towards him.

"if I didn't add ki to harden my head a bit before that blow, my entire face would have been crushed with just the handle of that damn axe." he thought.

"why aren't you using your entire arsenal to kill this weak creature." shield interrupted.

"you know why so stop acting like you don't."

Shield began to laugh a little. "I told you about using your ki wildly....that showing off stunt you pulled earlier to impress Jolly took a great amount of ki and you've been trying to conserve the rest since "

Damon wanted to respond in anger but knew it was his fault. he only had 184/500 of ki left. it would replenish over time but right now that was something he didn't have.

"Damon we can do this together, stop being an idiot." Alice shouts to him.

"wait." Damon then looked over the challenge of defeating the orc and smiled a little.

"Alright Alice." Damon says while returning Javaline within his soul core.

Alice didn't hesitate as she conjured an ice spear throwing it with force.

verglas the majestic looking ice wolf flung it's tail releasing shards of ice.

the orc caught the spear and attempted to throw it back at alice, but was stabbed in the arm with small ice shards making it miss its target.

Damon launched three balls of electricity hitting the orcs armor chest plate, upon contact there was a faint glow of orange light. his attack knocked the orc back a few feet, but that was all.

"Alice target anywhere on his body that's not covered in armor." Damon shouts.

Damon eyes glowed blue as he activated oversee.

Ding!

Red orc- a creature with natural great strength, very prideful and aggressive.

"that's all the description, no magic...that means." Damon says as he focused his gaze on the orcs armor and axe.

Ding!

enchanted armor- All physical and elemental attack power are cut in half and absorbed upon contact. The user can distribute four percent of absorbed attack power to themselves or a weapon.

percentage distribution can be stacked up to four times.

"I knew something was up with this bastard." I should have oversee a long time ago, but I forgot about it." Damon said inwardly.

He now understood why his punches felt so weak when he knew he had put a nice bit of power in them.

The axe wasn't an enchanted weapon,but could be powered by the armor the orc wore.

"so it's your armor that's really doing the work." he shouted to the orc as it deflected one of Alice attacks.

"cut all physical and elemental attacks in half and absorb huh." he says inwardly.

"I wonder what would happen if the half power of an attack is still greater than what that armor can handle." he says as the dark cloud above started to rumble and flash blue and purple within it.

veins bulged in his arms as purple and blue electricity wrapped his forearms and hands like gloves. Damon watched his ki pool drop to 60/500 and each Time he added more ki it dropped more. 48/500

Alice was now in close combat with the orc with her soul beast darting in and out from the orcs blind sides as they rotated and exchanged blows. Every time the orc got a chance to make a good hit on Alice verglas would step in with an attack of some kind.

the glove of electricity had two layers, blue within and purple on the outside. it crackled and vibrated as an electrical pulse could be heard looking like a pair of gauntlets. awoooom! awooom! awooom!

"Alice move away and cover your eyes." Damon shouts as he dashed at the orc.

red turned swinging his axe at Damon in which the attack had been dodged swiftly. Damon threw left hook to his body.

arrrmmmmm!

another left hook then a right, a jab to the face with a turn around normal kick to the chest making him skid back a little.

uggg ahhhhh grrrrr! red yelled in discomfort as purple energy popped and crackled off him. his body was unable to move as Damon's usual combination of electricity and water finally worked.

"looks like I only had to take it up a notch." Damon says spitting at red who was now down on his knees fighting to stand up.

an orange light vibrated with red's armor as he pushed himself up to stand.

spit was dragging out his mouth as he looked at Damon in rage. " you little."

the light gathered in his chest and shifted to the axe which was still in his hand with a firm grip.

the axe glowed as the orc managed to swing it sending out a orange energy slash.

"looks like I wasn't the only one not using all of my attacks, you should have used that sooner." Damon shouted punching the energy slash sending it right back at him.

with the orc still struggling to move like normally it couldn't dodge resulting in one of it's arms being cut in half as the energy blade came in contact with him slicing through it like butter.

Damon pounced again with his Demonic ki gauntlets rocking from side to side like a boxer connecting to jabs and a left and right hook to the face.

"oculus flash" a blinding light lit up around them taking away the orcs vision. Damon didn't think he needed to use it but just in case the orc had something up it's armless sleeve he decided to use 35 ki points to take his opponents sight leaving him with 13/500 of his ki pool.

the cloud above was still vibrating and flashing purple and blue as before. earlier while creating the gauntlets he activated firebolt which he prepared to use as a back up. anytime he wanted he could complete it's activation with a simple thought to fire.

blinded temporarily unknowingly to the orc he wildly struggled to move in a panic, but with the few punches Damon landed earlier even that was impossible at the moment. the new attack Damon had thought he made was more like a weapon creation than an attack. the outer layer of electricity on the gauntlet was pure demonic ki while the inner was his normal ki.

the pure demonic ki was far stronger than his normal ki which led to the red orcs paralysis unlike earlier because of it's Armor ability to dampen the attack of a physical or elemental attack.

Damon noticed in order to make his paralysis tactic work on a stronger opponent or rather a tricky enchanted armor like the orc was wearing he needed to up it's charge and so that's what he did.

Bang! Bang! Boom! Bang!

Damon rained down punch after punch as the orc continued to struggle.

"you were going to cook and defile who bitch" Bang !

"you thought you could have your way." Bang!

"diiiiiie." Bang!

A lethal punch to the orcs head put a fist size hole in its skull as Damon raised it high and forced it down with as much strength as he could muster.

Bang!

as Damon's final punch landed the orcs body jerked and bounced a little as its body became lifeless.

his blood lust was at an all time high as his fist trembled inside its skull with his teeth clenched mmmmmgrrrrrr!

"Damon." a familiar voice called out rushing to the scene. jolly accompanied by miss grey and a few others were seen running over all of a sudden. miss grey and company rushed towards Alice while jolly ran to Damon's side.

upon Jolly's arrival Damon's fist was still placed inside the dead orc skull. his face expression hadn't changed at all.

Seeing Damon's face jolly knew he had almost completely spaced out as his eyes were partially void of life and had turned half black.

Jolly grabbed his wrist while calling out to him gradually pulling it out of the skull. it took a few seconds for Damon to realize what had happened, but he quickly snapped out of his trance.

"jo,Jolly, when did you get here."

"Don't worry about that bro,you got that bastard, he's dead." jolly responded.

Ding! challenge completed.

92/500 ki pool points

the ki I used for firebolt was returned to me, good to know it can be returned if I don't completely use it Damon thought reading the transparent screen.
