'L-Lya?!'
Austin felt like his world was turned upside down and couldn't process what had happened yet.
He lost the connection he had with Lya, the tattoo is the connection, and he lost it. This means that she is dead as the connection will only be lost if the other side is dead.
And knowing that Lya is dead, made him feel like he was about to lost his mind.
And because of that, he didn't notice Edwen who suddenly appeared in front of him and grabbed his head before throwing him away like a ragdoll.
He immediately crashed into the wall on the other side breaking it as well.
"*Cough* Ugh!"
He coughed up more and more blood and his state and situation became more miserable. It felt like he was about to die at any moment.
But that didn't prevent him from remembering Lya and her cute personality that made him couldn't help but love her more.
Her smile and laugh that made him smile in happiness.
And now with her dead, he wouldn't be able to listen or see that again. Although he could still revive her, but because he was in a state of despair and sadness he didn't think about it.
But then Edwen appeared beside him and punched him making him kiss the floor.
And without waiting he continued punching him continuously.
BAAM!!
BOOM!!
BAMM!!!
BOOOM!!!
Austin felt like losing consciousness, but then...
(Darling! Wake up, it's not safe to sleep here, come let's go to our bedroom~) The voice of Lya sounded in his head.
'Lya,'
(Hey that's unfair, we also want to sleep with him)
'Girls, I miss you all.'
(Then wake up, it's not time to sleep yet.)
Once he heard this, he immediately caught the fist that was about to crush his face before he used his flexible body to kick Edwen and send him flying back.
Slowly standing up, he grabbed his sword that was beside him on the floor before his eyes narrowed and his muscles strengthened before dashing at Edwen in a very incredible speed that was faster than before.
He immediately appeared in front of Edwen and send a diagonal slash at him.
Clang!
But was blocked by Edwen but Austin didn't care and just attacked.
Clang!
Clang!
Clang!
'How could I forget, I have my women to go back to and I could even use my magic to revive her so it's not there is still a hope. All I need is to kill that bastard in front of me at the moment. I'm really embarrassed to behave like some useless protagonists in some anime, but that won't happen again.'
He began blocking, countering and attacking Edwen with much more stronger slashes and techniques making Edwen increase his speed and power as well to match Austin.
The fight went on a high tempo making it impossible for anyone to keep up with them.
Austin's attacks were getting stronger and better and much more precise.
The scratches that kept appearing on Edwen's metallic skin began to turn into wounds with blood coming out of them.
Clang! Clang!
Both were aiming to kill the other side and didn't care about their surroundings at all.
They never really cared from the beginning. Deep slashed and craters were everywhere destroying the place even more and made it more messed up then before.
During all that time Edwen didn't utter a word and just kept attacking Austin.
Sending a roundhouse kick at Edwen, the man was sent back some meters in the air, and before he correct his position, Austin appeared behind him in the air with eyes that reflected deep seriousness and power that if anyone looked at them they would feel afraid and kneel in front of him.
Anyway, Austin made a vertical slash aiming at cutting Edwen in two but the said man twisted his body in the air and blocked the attack but because he was in the air and the attack being powerful he was sent flying down crashing into the floor breaking it and making a somewhat deep crater.
But Edwen didn't exclaim in pain or anything and stood up albeit slowly.
Before his wounds were healed.
Austin didn't respond and just looked indifferently at what happened in front of him before with cold eyes he took a stance before with a very fast footwork he vanished from his place startling Edwen who couldn't feel him because he sealed his power which he regretted because at the next moment.
Slash!
Thud!
His left arm was cut by Austin's sharp and powerful attack.
*Drip*
*Drip*
Blood gushed out of the fatal injury but Edwen didn't care as in the next moment, it was regenerated again.
"Tsk." Clicking his tongue, Austin, who was behind Edwen, took another different stance before vanishing again.
[Multi Slashes]
Appearing on the other side of Edwen, several slashes and wounds appeared on his body making blood flow out of them.
But again, the wounds were healed much to Austin frustration, but he didn't curse or say a word and just kept clashing with Edwen again in a battle of swords, martial arts and spells with Edwen having the advantage.
Austin only attacked and attacked and attacked and attacked without giving a shit about his injuries and broken bones. Blood was trailing at the corner of his mouth and his head was bleeding but he didn't care and just didn't feel them because at the moment, he felt something strange.
His mind became clearer out of the blue and the world in front of him was moving in slow motion making him see most of the attacks coming at him which he easily blocked and countered.
Clang!
Clang!
Clang!
'Faster, stronger,...' he was repeating these two words like a broken record in his head while continuing attacking.
The speed and the strength increased again and again with every second passed.
The fight became even more deadly as they attacked relentlessly.
Clang! Clang!
The wounds on his body weren't painful at the moment making him attack more and more faster.
'I can feel it coming.'
