Chapter 45 - Chapter45: Attack on Comet city, part three

At the south east side of Comet city, another two warriors have appeared.

One of them is built like a boulder, his eyes a burning orange.

Known by the people among him as the gas giant, but his actual name is Orid.

And as for the other, she is a blessed child born with both talent and skill.

Her white skin as smooth as ice.

Her yellow hair long but perfectly healthy.

And as for her clothes, a white hoodless jacket covered her torso, while moonlight silver bottoms covered her legs.

But her feet were left uncovered.

"So do you think Lilith is dead yet?" Bia asked as she bounced from slab to slab.

"You shouldn't just wish death upon an ally Bia" Orid spoke calmly, his posture like a unmovable statue.

"So your name is Bia?, why don't you handle her Feather, while I handle the boulder head" a guard of Comet city appeared alongside a slender girl.

The guard's appearance was of a basic design once again, as he wore a metallic silver tank top along with charcoal grey trousers.

But his arms were another story...

His fists and and upper arms were completely replaced with meteorite replicas.

While his forearms were attached on four golden pipes working almost like pistons, to supply support to the user's strength.

While Feather, her appearance was a little out of the ordinary.

Gas canisters installed upon her outer thighs, while a unusually designed bow was strapped to her back.

And a dagger sat inside the holster on the back of her right thigh.

"So tell me what's your name brawler?' Orid singled out the ordinary looking warrior.

"My name?, well it's Saeon and as for my fame people named me, the crushing fist" Saeon tensed his body, his veins popping out.

And upon the moment he bent his knees, Saeon launched towards Orid without a single doubt of his victory.

But Orid was just as reckless.

Increasing the size of his hands, making them into that of a giant's.

The meteorite cracked under the pressure.

Saeon approached at unimaginable speed, appearing just a few seconds away from striking Orid.

Orid threw his hands together, as if he were clapping...

Catching Saeon like a fly in a net.

But surprisingly no sound came from Orid's clap, no sound at all..."Ahhh, I hope you weren't expecting that to kill me" Saeon pushed against the palms of Orid's hands.

Each palm held back by a singular arm.

Saeon dug his feet into the ground as steam began to pour out into the surrounding area.

"Where's all this steam coming from?, no matter" Orid's hands doubled in size causing all the steam to vanish.

But more steam began to pile out at rapid speed.

The steam is pouring out from Saeon's fists, along with his forearms shrinking inside of his hollow upper arms.

And at the point his fore arms vanished, they shot out and unbelievable speed breaking Orid's hands.

Releasing his grip on Saeon, Orid cried out in agony.

His crippled hands returning to their normal size.

"Clearly you don't know what you've got yourself into, allow me to give you a introduction" Saeon's arms began to explode with steam.

"Many wouldn't guess this about me but I'm actually a master when it comes to regeneration" Orid tripled the size of his entire body, while also smashing his fists against Saeon's jaw.

And again but this time upon his back.

And as Saeon began to cough blood you could hear the faint sound of his voice "twenty three, twenty two, twenty one...".

"I thought you were gonna give me an introduction to your strength Saeon?" Orid's right leg grow up to six times its original size.

Kicking Saeon up into the endless space above their heads.

Saeon whispered once more, as his body flailed through the air, "Eighteen, seventeen, sixteen...".

"How boring can you be?, are you really just gonna be my punching bag?" Orid called out as his body returned to its original size.

"Technique activation: physical gas extension" Orid shouted out, as his fist became twenty times its original size.

Saeon began to descend towards Comet city, creating a trail of blood.

Orid mercilessly swung his gigantic fist.

"Three, two..." Saeon crashed down directly into Orid's fist.

But it wasn't Saeon who took the damage...

"you see my enhancement has a cool down for thirty two seconds, so times up" Saeon ripped into Orid's finger.

And as it shrunk Saeon released it, allowing for his fists to disappear once again into his upper arms.

Saeon's fists cannoned out with tremendous force, tearing through Orid's defence.

"There's only one exception...".

"I can always break them!" Saeon called out as fusion energy overloaded the pistons inside his arms.

"Ultimate move: Imperial overload: piston relentless" Saeon's arms shot out and retracted constantly like a missile birage.

Each hit stronger then the last, each hit fracturing no completely eradicating a piece of Orid's body.

A mountain of steam exploded out of Saeon's busted arms.

Causing the assault to end.

Leaving Saeon's arms completely destroyed and Orid...

Well his body has become one with Comet city's infrastructure.

Meanwhile another battle was taking place.

A battle between Saturn's arrow and the ricochet assassin.

Sixteen pillars all of different heights, ranging from two meters to thirty one meters swarmed the area.

Both warriors took their places on opposite sides of the battlefield.

"You really think I can't just blow these pillars away?" Feather shouted as a arrow made of hydrogen was generated along the string of her bow.

In which she released the arrow directly into the centre pillar exploding the area with it.

"There you are" Feather lined her next shot.

A sword rebounded from the pillars to the right of Feather, heading straight for her throat.

But suddenly Saeon blocked the blade, taking the hit himself.

"So there's two of you now? Well I don't do so well fighting groups so I'm out" Bia dragged her blade out of Saeon's chest, whilst also making another sixteen pillars.

But this time the pillars were clearly marking a boundary blocking all from following her.

"Damm it, she escaped and even worse you had to save me" Feather cried out as she placed her bow on her back.

"Well there's always another time to prove yourself as long as you live little one" Saeon placed his hand on Feather's shoulder in the hopes of comforting her.

"Now let's regroup with Dowto" Saeon looked down upon his broken arms.

Forgetting what he's lost Saeon began to head towards the north.

And trailing behind him is the young archer, Feather.
