Rhys took a deep breath to calm himself...His eyes narrowed as he observed the {Chaos Orc}.'Riva said its power increases the longer it fights. Just how strong is it now? I'll have to see for myself...'"Grr!"The {Chaos Orc} growled at Rhys . With a casual wave of its hand, a huge amount of wind was stirred up.Rhys also waved the large blade in his hands, kicking up some dust as well. They both stared at one another, both unmoving...His muscles were tense. The predatory gaze of the {Chaos Orc} drilled into his soul. This creature was stronger and faster than him. He didn't have the advantage at all.'Strong...'Rhys took a step forward. A split second later, his body shifted sideways. The {Chaos Orc} had already brought its axe down.'I can't let it land...'Twisting the blade in his hand, Rhys poured an absurd amount of devil essence into it...'Dark Dragon, Orbiting...'A black streak was left in the air as the weapon surged forward, clashing with the edge of the axe...BANG!R

Like a ballet dancer, his body danced around the {Chaos Orc} gracefully. It was a very strange sight.'{Wind Weaver} allows me to manipulate the direction my body takes during motion by manipulating the wind currents said motion creates. I don't need to be falling to my death to do this.'Rhys utilized {Wind Weaver} in a way he had never done before. The trajectory of his body's motion was changed mid-movementThe {Chaos Orc} was completely surprised by this move. Because of how fast it had become, it should have been able to react on time. However, it hadn't expected that Rhys would have a skill like {Azure Burst} although it was fast, Rhys managed to increase his speed so quickly, that it was unable to adjust accordingly.'Gotcha!'Rhys swung his blade horizontally, dragging it across the creature's back. Blood splattered as a wide injury appeared.The {Chaos Orc} jumped back to create some space, staring at Rhys deeply...Rhys stared back as well, not paying any attention to the wo

Rhys had a strange feeling in his chest...Logic told him it was coming from his punctured lung, but something in his head told him otherwise...'Is this what battle truly is?!'Rhys 's body was being torn apart at the same rate at which he was tearing the {Chaos Orc's} body apart as well. There was no time to use any techniques. The {Scale of the Abyssal Flame} was no longer in his hands. He was forced to fight with the {Chaos Orc} using his bare feet and fists.The more the fight drew out, the more brutal the beating Rhys received. At first, he had been able to go toe to toe with the {Chaos Orc}. However, it was as though the creature became stronger with every blow it landed and received.It became faster, stronger, and more keen. Its movements became sharper, and the flow of Aether within and without its body became increasingly violent until it was like he was being overwhelmed by a storm.His blood splattered everywhere. His bones were fractured, and his muscles and ligaments we

First, the battle with the {Abyssal Realm-Walker} had been a wake-up call. If not for the circumstances involved, he would have been killed for sure. Then, he had fought so many abominations, faced an entire herd of weather beasts, and fought a creature that had the blood lime of a dragon. Suarez was very diluted, but it was still there. And that made it exceptional.Then, he fought and exchanged blows with a Primordial devil. He had even come out of the entire exchange with his life still intact. He had killed thousands of {Chaos Goblins} and {Chaos Trolls}, unsealed another Primordial devil and decimated an entire colony of Chaos creatures.He had accumulated a wealth of combat experience during all these battles. He had created new skills and spells, acquired even more, and was very close to reaching Level 100. However, he had also come to realize that he was missing more than a few things. He had concluded that his weaknesses were still holding him back.His combat abilities were

Rhys was simply engulfed in this feeling of bliss...***{Congratulations to the host. You have unlocked a basic Ki manifestation ability, [Ki Fire]... }[Ki Fire]: A Flame that does not burn. An external manifestation of internal energy.[Ki Fire Ability]: The unique nature of the host's Ki has birthed a strange Ki ability, {Kill}.{Kill}: The host's Ki manifestation ability. As soon as the host successfully lands an attack on an opponent, the opponent's defenses decrease by 70%. Every successful attack following the initial attack restores the host's total Ki by 1%.{This ability costs 20,000 Ki points to activate, and 10 Stamina points per second to keep active. The longer this ability is kept active, the greater the strain on the body of its user}.***Rhys didn't have time to completely understand the skill before the {Chaos Orc} was upon him again. This time, there was obvious intent in its eyes. Previously, it had been playing with him, just like how a tiger plays with its meal
