Chris tightened his grip on his silver sword, his once handso face now contorted with extre rage. The humiliation of having his sche countered by that woman fueled a burning fury within him, threatening to erupt at any mont.
Remarkably, despite being consud by his emotions, his mind remained eerily calm, as if two distinct souls or personalities resided within his body.
‘I must admit, this woman possesses imnse combat potential. It's been quite so ti since I've encountered such a challenging and vexing opponent. How unexpectedly irritating! The Holy Markings suppressing my strength still have so ti before they expire. However, if I unleash my full force now, that ti will be drastically reduced.'
‘By then, I will likely be forcefully expelled from the underground maze. The problem is, if I don't deal with this woman using my full power, I'll inevitably be pushed back and forced to do the sa once Alicia recovers. I've decided to end this fight swiftly!'
The mont his decision solidified, silver light flickered in his eyes. His muscular fra expanded slightly, and a violent silver aura swept through the area like a raging typhoon.
Simultaneously, silver material emanated from his body, transforming into spikes and blades on his arms, back, and legs. He resembled a silver-colored monster.
Silver Chris!
The onlookers couldn't help but recall his self-introduction, which was now living up to its na. Observing the now towering figure of Chris adorned with weapons, the spectators' worry deepened.
Yunuen and Little Fairy were among the spectators, acutely aware that this silver Chris possessed far greater strength than before. Their Princess was in grave danger.
‘His aura is overwhelmingly powerful. Is this Chris in his ultimate state?'
Yaeger's gaze sharpened, her complexion slightly pale. Her hands trembled slightly as she clutched [Sunscorch].
At this point, she had no idea how much longer she could hold out before Chris overwheld her.
‘Let's hope I can buy enough ti until Alicia erges!'
Casting a brief glance at the green cocoon, Yaeger tightened her grip on [Sunscorch] and fixed an intensely solemn gaze upon Chris. The more perilous the situation, the more her focus intensified. Her mind was now like a taut bowstring.
Bang! Chris raised his hand, releasing a ferocious aura that reverberated with a resounding boom.
In the blink of an eye, Chris vanished before everyone's eyes.
"Up!" Sensing an intrusion in her Domain, Yaeger swiftly swung [Sunscorch] upward, igniting a cascade of sparks.
"Too slow!" However, the searing flas were forcefully sliced apart by an onslaught of countless blades, hurtling toward Yaeger. "You cannot escape!"
Whoosh!
Countless silver blades descended upon her flawless form, tearing her to shreds. Witnessing this, the spectators were consud by anxiety. Yet, their fears were swiftly allayed. Chris had rely shredded her afterimage.
In that mont, the descending flas transford into a massive wave!
"Another flash? Let's see how many tis you can dodge!" Chris spun mid-air and taunted the wave of flas. His silver sword glinted brightly.
"Break!" He swung his sword. A blade of light, capable of tearing space asunder, dispersed the wave of flas and surged toward Yaeger. This attack was swift, lethal, and seemingly impossible to evade.
"[Thousand Waves]!" Yet, Yaeger had no intention of dodging. She t his assault head-on, employing an ability of her own. In an instant, flas and silver light engulfed the entire area, obscuring the vision of everyone present.
A deafening boom reverberated through the air, followed by the sight of two figures being forcefully propelled away by the impact. As the light dispersed, Yaeger coughed up a mouthful of blood and landed in a less-than-graceful manner. On the other hand, Chris touched down with a composed expression, seemingly victorious in their recent clash.
"How remarkably tenacious. Are you a sewer rat?" Chris' voice lacked any hint of emotion, but these were his genuine thoughts. In his eyes, Yaeger resembled a sewer rat—resilient and intensely botherso. Such an irritating creature needed to be eliminated swiftly!
Without warning, Chris launched a sudden flurry of attacks, catching Yaeger off guard. She grimaced in pain as she struggled to block each strike. In truth, the previous exchange had taken a toll on her, leaving her in a precarious state. Her mana and health were dwindling, and the situation was dire.
The onlookers clenched their fists, silently cheering for Yaeger. It was all they could do at this mont—support her from the sidelines.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
As one side lost ground, the other gained an advantage. Yaeger barely managed to defend against Chris' relentless onslaught, but her health steadily depleted. At this rate, she would soon et her demise. The sense of urgency surged within her, yet her mind remained remarkably clear. She maintained an unexpected calmness.
"Indeed, a Myth-ranked Great Warlock lives up to their reputation. These seemingly uncontrolled attacks are actually highly calculated and interconnected. Each strike seamlessly flows into the next, with deliberate openings ant to lure into counter-attacking."
"If I were foolish enough to fall for those feigned weaknesses and retaliate, he would likely finish off with his next combination. Impressive, truly impressive. Engaging an expert is an intriguing experience. Not only can I identify my own shortcomings, but I can also rapidly grow in such extre circumstances!"
If Yunuen and the others could comprehend Yaeger's thoughts in that mont, they would undoubtedly be astounded. Despite her desperate predicant, she continued to learn and enhance herself. Was she really a human?
Clang!
Suddenly, flas ignited, capturing everyone's attention. They witnessed a column of fire thrusting Chris backward. Yaeger twisted her body mid-air, stepping on debris propelled by the flas. With a swift descent, she wielded [Sunscorch] in both hands.
Bang!
[Sunscorch] surged with fiery energy, manifesting into a nimble fla dragon that lunged toward Chris.
Just as Chris regained his balance and glanced upward, he was t with the sight of a gaping fla dragon's maw about to engulf him entirely.
"Annoying rat!" Chris bellowed with fury. He rooted himself in place, channeling all of his silver aura into his body, transforming into a colossal silver ape. "Die!"
The giant ape seized the fla dragon's upper and lower jaws, applying imnse force and tearing the dragon in half. However, Yaeger was nowhere to be found. She had mysteriously vanished.
"Oh no!" Chris' exclamation held a note of familiarity as he recognized the situation unfolding before him.
In that crucial mont, a torrent of flaming red sword energy pierced through the colossal silver ape, impaling its defenseless back.
Stab!
Blood sprayed in all directions as the strike found its mark. Chris had been dealt a severe blow. However, Yaeger's expression remained devoid of joy. Instead, a flicker of shock danced in her eyes.
"You fell right into my trap, you wretched fool," Chris spat, his voice dripping with malicious satisfaction. "This is my true, lethal strike!"
In that mont, a maniacal smile twisted Chris's face as he exerted every muscle in his body. He mounted [Sunscorch] with a sinister intent, channeling his silver aura down the blade, ensnaring Yaeger in its shimring grasp.
"Explode!"
In an instant, the colossal silver ape radiated an intense flash. And then, it detonated in a cataclysmic explosion!
