I Screwed the Novel's Plot -
Chapter 47 Ch. 47: Screwed [2]
"Hahaha!!"
The man dashed while laughing wickedly. This time, instead of punching the ground, he followed Alexander when he jumped.
As both of them floated in the air, he swung his fist. Knowing that his attack was inevitable, Alexander covered his face with both arms and enhanced them with mana.
--Whack!
The boy's body flung onto the forest floor and a loud thud sound was heard followed by dust spreading in the space. Debris was falling around Alexander who tried to get up with the aid of his sword, however...
"Cough! Cough!"
He halted midway and threw up a mouthful of blood. Even though he coated his entire body with mana, it didn't help much as the impact of the punch hurt the hell out of him.
It seemed he had broken ribs and internal organs injured. The man landed perfectly on the ground and looked at him indifferently.
Seeing his ability to heal in an instant, somehow reminded him of 'them', albeit it wasn't exactly the same as their skill, but it was somehow quite similar. Alexander eyed him as he straightened his back.
"You're... from <strong>that</strong> society, aren't you?"
"So you knew about us?"
'Wait--What?'
Alexander was perplexed, it was just a wild guess but unexpectedly he was a member of that organization! He couldn't help but frown, however, their regeneration abilities were somewhat different.
The one he fought in his previous timeline was more advanced than the man before him, or maybe this man was a prototype of their technology?
But now everything became apparent and it explained why his plan was completely ruined and the reason why there were so many troops in the woods. In fact, the soldiers were not Yovannians, but people of the shady organization.
There were only two ways for Yovannians to step foot in the Chrono Empire: the first was by sea but since many ships were patrolling, there was no way they would not get caught while escorting a thousand soldiers.
The second was by land, it was impossible to cross the Forest of Tèras because it counted as suicide, and turned out, shitty people had joined hands with another rotten bastard. Alexander clenched his fist, how dare they wreaked havoc in this Empire!
Still, Alexander couldn't comprehend why they lent them a hand; there was no way they would be willing to help if there was nothing in return and all they wanted was 'those items'. When Dariush sent him to Yovanny's Kingdom in his previous life, he found nothing valuable there, or maybe Loewy had given them 'the stuff'?'
"Hehehe."
Alexander came back to his senses as the man chuckled.
"That's good. Now, I have a reason to kill you."
He let out a scornful laugh and he darted to him. Alexander summoned four earth-spiked walls rowing beside him and let one of them glide toward the man. Once it loomed, he hastily smashed it without stopping his step.
--Boom!
The barrier crumbled down and ashes danced around. Alexander's golden eyes watched how his bleeding knuckles gave off faint smoke and his wounds slowly healed. He sent another wall and the man immediately lifted his arm once more, then punched it.
--Boom!
He ran past the fog of dirt and Alexander smirked upon delivering the remaining barriers.
--Boom!
The first thorny earthen wall shattered, Alexander took out a bottle of green liquid and poured it onto his blade. Once his ears caught footsteps that were coming closer, he quickly funneled his mana into the sword and both of them swung their weapons.
--Boom!
Right after the second earth broke down, his fist was greeted by the boy's thrust attack.
--Sliced!
Although Alexander could only make a single cut on his palm, it didn't matter to him as it wasn't what he aimed for. Also, his body was as hard as steel and not to mention that his Ranks were higher than him. Blood dripped from the wound and they glared at each other intently.
However, the moment Alexander saw the vapor that came out from the scar, he drew his sword away but before he could distance himself, a hand grabbed his neck and lifted his body.
"Urk!"
Regardless he was choked, Alexander remained unchanged and stared coldly at him. However, suddenly the man froze and let go of his neck when he felt a wave of unbearable pain in his hand.
"Aaarrghh!!"
A wailing echoed throughout the forest as he clutched his wrist. Alexander landed perfectly on the ground and used this opportunity to manipulate the earth under his feet to soar upwards.
Once it passed his height, Alexander jumped down behind him and slashed his back. Blood oozed from the injury and he hurriedly backed away.
"Aaarrgghh!!
The man twirled and glared at him with his bloodshot eyes.
"What the hell did you do to me?!"
He shouted furiously while clenching his palm. Alexander lowered sight and his lips tugged when he saw his hand had turned black like charcoal.
"You--you—!! Aarrghh!!"
He groaned once again and Alexander's smile boarded, somehow the man's weep sounded like a symphony in his ears.
It was a good thing that he prepared beforehand in case he met with people from that crazy society. But he never expected to meet one of them this early.
But whatever, he truly enjoyed his roar of lamenting—or not. His golden eyes were forced to widen when the man suddenly appeared in front of him and pinned Alexander on the ground by his neck.
—Bang!
"You lowly bastard!"
The red liquid flowed around Alexander's head.
"Cough, cough!"
He emitted a cough as the man clenched him tighter.
—Boom!
Unexpectedly, a huge wall hit the man's body and sent him rolling several times. Alexander instantly got up and hopped to the nearest tree branch.
He stroked his head whilst gasping for air and blood was visible on his palm. He was glad that the floor was soil, it would lead to another story if it was stone.
"Haa… Haa… Haa…"
He just realized how reckless he was, and although he succeeded in injecting poison to mess up his regeneration, he shouldn't be overjoyed as the battle hadn't ended yet. Alexander glanced and the man was seen straightening his posture.
The man spat bloody saliva on the ground while looking at him. Somehow it was terrifying, even the toxin didn't affect his speed and strength. Also, Alexander had no idea when this fight would end, because his mana was running low.
He breathed out a long sigh and both of them channeled their mana. They prepared themselves for their last fight.
