Chapter 766 Destroying Camps II
"Here!"
I shouted from the ground to the Grimm Monster who was looking for me. It is safer to fight on the ground, I don't want to attract too much attention like yesterday where I had to fight one Grimm Monster after another.
It will not matter much if the fight caught the attention of Nine Star Elites as Ashlyn will be able to handle them, but if they caught the attention of the something above, then we will not even get a chance to fight back against it.
"Bastard Die!"
It shouted as it saw me on the ground and came down at me, its face contorted into rage, it was looking at me like I had done something despicable as stealing its families jewels.
Zip!
It appeared above me and brought down its cleaver at me, seeing that I activated the Mini Blast without hesitation and dodged the blow.
I would be an idiot if I face it head-on, the Grimm Monster had accumulated a lot of force for its attack and the force of the Gravity, if I resisted the attack forcefully, I would have had several of my bones broken even when I defended with the Great Sword.
The miss did not discourage the Grimm Monster as if it had expected that I would dodge it. It landed on the ground and used the momentum of an earlier failed attack to launch another attack at me.
Bang!
I couldn't help but feel impressed seeing the Grimm Monster performing such an impressive move. The usage of the momentum of the previous attack is really good; it was very fast that if I did not have the mini Blast that helps me make instantaneous movements, I would have been cleaved into two with its cleaver by now.
'I will have to be extra careful of this Grimm Monster!' I thought in my mind as I saw its combat style.
The battle power of this Grimm Monster is comparable to the werewolf I had fought yesterday, but it is as dangerous as the Yellow Striped Leopardman that had nearly killed me.
"Coward!"
It shouted as it again launched the attack, in this attack, it was still able to harness some of the power of the previous attack, but it was not much. This is the attack; I could deal with head-on, I thought as I swung my sword at it.
Clang!
Our swords clashed and stood stationary on the spot without even shaking; the Grimm monsters looked shocked, seeing that. It is probably thinking a puny human who is half than its size, which skull it could easily crush in its palm, how could I have such power that I could counter its attack.
"Die!"
It shouted as it took back its cleaver at the blurring speed and brought back down in twice much speed at me. The force of its attack was three times greater than its previous attack, but I did not fear it; instead, I increased the power of my mini blast and moved my sword to meet it.
Clang Clang Clang Clang…
We started to clash intensely; each of our attacks would be more powerful than the previous though the power of our attacks had changed, our positions were not. We zealously stood on our spot as we attacked each other.
"You must be using strength type skill to compete against me right, let me see how much can it last!" Iron Rhinoman said as it laughed fiendishly, I couldn't help but give it a mocking smile hearing that.
A lot of Grimm Monster started to mistake the Swirling Armor for mystic skill, especially since ist power had increased. Just yesterday, the Violet Striped Leopardman said the same thing despite evidence suggesting otherwise.
It is very clear that the Swirling Armor made of my fire ability; it is a very sophisticated piece of ability Armor where each part of it aided another, and they all worked flawlessly. It not only provides me speed and power, but it is also highly defensive, which would shred away whatever force that comes at me with the help of the Swirls.
One doesn't have to look much; just a single look is enough to know that I am wearing Armor made of my fire ability. Still, many Grimm Monsters believe otherwise. They probably think I am hiding the evidence of Mystic Method in the guise of fire armor for some reason, I don't know.
It is a good thing they think that It helped me give them a surprise when I attack them with my mystic method.
Time passed by, and we fought for more than an hour without much moving from our spot. The Grimm Monster looked really happy when it looked at me, likely thinking I am overusing my Mystic Method as it is really difficult to use the Mystic Method for more than one hour.
To keep it under such an illusion that I am overusing my Mystic Method, I even covered my face with fire forty minutes ago, which I usually don't. Now every part of my body is covered in the fire, I looked like a man, which is covered in a very thick Silver fire.
To be honest, in this past hour, I had come across two chances of killing it, but I let them go. If it had been any other Grimm Monsters, Ive would have taken those chances and killed it using my Mystic Method, but I did not kill this Iron Rhinoman.
As for a reason, its combat style. This is the first Grimm Monster I had come across who had such an efficient fighting style. It was because of this; it is this strong; otherwise, it barely has the power of Nine Star Elite.
I am learning many things from it; I could feel that my mastery of Greatsword increasing at the visible rate if I fight with few of such enemies who have such mastery over their combat style, it wouldn't take long for me to take my mastery of Greatsword as that of the light sword.
I wish I could keep this Grimm Monsters captive and spar with it whenever I want to. I could actually do that, and with Rule power locked in its heart, I could control it, but I did not as it is too dangerous.
Grimm Monsters are the crazy bastards; no one can predict what they will do. Many people had done what I wanted to do and lost their lives in the process when I was in the outpost; the Guild had explicitly warned us, rookies, from doing such things.
As time passed, I started to weaken my attacks, even vomited blood three times to make it even more realistic. I just wanted to experience its mystic method before killing it, though it is a hazardous act as every Mystic Skill is powerful, and if it landed on me, it would surely kill me.
"Little human, you have finally run out of energy." Iron Rhinoman said with a fiendish laugh as I crashed across the big tree.
"Let me give you a taste of the Mystic Method." It said jubilantly, before shouting "Arora Gale!"
'Speed Type Method.' I said in my mind as I saw it coming at me with a speed that is barely discernible to eyes.
Puch!
It appeared in front of me and swung its sword at me when it felt pain in its chest, only to see a sword covered in a dark grey cloud of sand in its chest without it seeing how.
Before dying, the expression it had in its eyes was confusion; it was not able to guess how a sword pierced through its body without it noticing.
