Chapter 94: Bruno vs Night!
Bruno was delighted with the cut he inflicted
on Lancelot Jr, he licked the blood on his axe. He swung it around playfully.
He suddenly noticed that the sliced cut on Lancelot Jr had healed. Lancelot Jr was surprised himself.
"This must be one of the five abilities that you obtained from the dream state, a regeneration ability," The spirit speaker said to Lancelot Jr.
The spirit speaker felt extremely delighted."
This ability is very useful to you. The crowd also noticed it, and there was a bit of quietness before murmurs started to break
forth from every corner.
" He could heal himself"
"Is he like wolverine or something"
"ldiot, the wolverine is a fictional character, this is real"
"This kid has some trick up his sleeve. Or could this be an illusion of some sort that we do not know of?"
"Could there be an old monster helping him? | have noticed the aura of elder Kali, could she have left seclusion? No, that should just be my imagination. That Elder gives me the creeps"
Lancelot Jr had been in an unconscious state for 6 years before he woke up in the monastery. During the period of unconscious state, he had unsealed one of the abilities of James Night, the first elemental who had immense abilities.
The ability he unsealed was the ability to be the master of time, to control and manipulate time.
During the unconscious state period, he was
given 3 tests which he passed and as a result of passing them, Sir Zuco, the guardian of power had to pass on 5 powers to him.
And it turns out that one of the five powers was the power of consciousness, being able to pressure others from his spiritual sea and act on them. Just now he had discovered the
second ability, which is the ability to self-heal.
Bruno felt some pressure and concern for that healing ability of Lancelot Jr. "I wonder if your decapitated head could repair itself after being dislodged from your body" Bruno said out loud as he charged at Lancelot Jr.
'This idiot killed so many innocent people,
thanks to him I've unlocked one of my abilities, but it's time to do some damage!' Lancelot Jr thought to himself.
'Don't kill him, although you can secretly injure him, but don't kill him. It would make your stay here chaotic if you do, no matter how short the timing may be. The person backing him is the second elder." The spirit speaker suddenly spoke with a hint of apprehension.
Bruno charged again and swung both axes,
aiming for Lancelot Jr's head.
"Swiooosh"
The axe missed the neck of Lancelot Jr
narrowly and swung forward in the same
direction, meeting nothing but air.
Lancelot Jr kicked at the defenseless Bruno
right at the position where his privates were, it connected with his balls and made him shriek in pain.
"Arrrrggggghhhhhh!" He screamed in pain.
He bent down and covered the area of his
privates protectively as the pain shot through
his body like a jolt of electricity.
He looked at Lancelot Jr as a deep and extreme hatred grew in his heart.
He carried his axe and screamed, "Nivirna flame, the third form"
Immediately an amulet glowed on his neck,
Lancelot Jr felt the heat that kept rising in
temperature from Bruno, he decided to not
dilly-dally and bring out his sword.
The sword came out quickly and he brandished it with a set of complicated moves as he screamed, "Sword Play, 5th level, dancing flames"
Lancelot Jr moved with the sword, like a
dancing swordsman. Flames erupted from the sword as it flowed from Lancelot Jr's body.
He performed 6 moves but each move overlapped the other, and they perfectly complemented each other.
Bruno moved his axe and the flames covered the blades of the axe as he swung it towards Lancelot Jr at full speed.
"Boommm"
"Bang"
"Booommmmm"
Both blades connected multiple times creating sparks. The fight got so tense as both parties entered an ethereal state.
Bruno was fighting to kill, while Lancelot Jr was testing out his knowledge of his Sword Play mastery.
"Boooommm" A sound was finally heard that
sent both parties flying in opposite directions.
Lancelot Jr was stunned. "He managed to parry my swordplay flame attack" He muttered to himself in a low tone.
The swordplay is a series of sword techniques given to Lancelot Jr by Elder Di, but Elder Di never took the time to teach him properly nor give him pointers, he only performed the basic moves and left him in confusion.
It was Elder Kali that physically ingrained the
moves into Lancelot Jr's memory and
thoroughly broke it down for him to understand and assimilate, now that Lancelot Jr had mastered all five techniques, he managed to combine it with his fire element.
Despite the strength of the attack, Bruno
managed to parry it and even managed to give his own powerful axe attack. Only a few burns could be seen on Bruno's lower harm. While Lancelot Jr's burns had already healed.
"Interesting" Elder Kali said from where she
stood. She made herself invisible but was
physically there to watch the whole thing. She was surprised by the abilities Lancelot Jr had displayed, even his ability to master the moves she thought him.
She had long decided to take in Lancelot Jr as a personal disciple. It was her way of feeling close to James Night.
Ever since she lost him, she had made herself create countless fantasies about seeing him reappear and what she intends to do to get his forgiveness.
She had searched for him for so long that it
seemed like a futile effort after a while, but
upon seeing his descendant, she felt she could at least do something to apologize for the decisions she took back in the day.
Lancelot Jr wasn't aware of any of these
thoughts in Elder Kali's mind, he only knew that she had been extremely helpful to him and that she was his great grand ancestor's ex in the person of James Night.
Other than that he had no clue what she
wanted from him and neither did he think too
deeply about it. He just felt that as long as she keeps being good to him, he had no issues with her desires.
"He managed to master the moves, how? How could he be so powerful?" Elder Di said, he was stunned.
He had initially decided to hide his
face from the fight in its entirety, but upon
hearing the different reactions from the crowd and the time it took for the reactions to rise and subside, he could determine that the match wasn't as simple as he had expected it.
In fact, he was surprised to see that Bruno was at a disadvantage. He stood with a smug on his face as he had started to initiate his plan to take credit for the excellent swordplay that Lancelot Jr displayed.
The other elders viewed elder Di like one would view a supreme being who could turn a puppet into an expert. His Place in their heart took a new turn.
To them, he had managed to turn a useless novice without weapons skills into an expert, such a person deserves respect.
Elder Di was calm on the surface with a smug on his face, while underneath, he was surprised by Lancelot Jr's ability.
This kid is a rare genius, I actually took someone like this for granted. I need to change my behavior to him' Elder Di thought to himself.
Lancelot Jr noticed the fact that Elder Di was
trying to take credit for his sudden improvement in sword skills, he sneered in hismind at Elder Di but decided to ignore the sly elder.
Bruno charged again with a force comparable to a speeding tiger. He swung his axe again and screamed,
"Nirvana Flames, the fifth form"
The flames soared, they bathed the entire axe. Bruno charged with such ferocity as if his life depends on it.
"Sword Play, 5th level, Water splash" Lancelot Jr muttered to himself as he sidestepped the charging Bruno.
His sword suddenly produced water that
covered the edge of his sword. It flowed the
sword around like a sea's surging waves. He slashed at Bruno's unprotected back as he
sidestepped him.
Lancelot Jr's slash cut deeply into Bruno's back. The water splash attack was like a painless needle that slashed deep into his back and almost collided with his vertebrae.
"Aaaaarrrggghhhh' Bruno shouted.
The crowd could no longer bear to speak. The fight was just too intense. What shocked them the most was Lancelot Jr's change of element.
They clearly saw him use flames and now it
was water, for the monks of the human realms, they could master an element after great difficulty, but even at that, not just anyone could master an element, yet this strange being before them had not only produced one but two different elements. 'Could he really be telling the truth as the descendant of James Night? They pondered.
The ability he had displayed had really convinced a lot of them.
