A split second before Aster could freeze time, Melchior moved. His experience from their last fight was enough to know not to let the man get the upper hand first.
He zipped forward first, bringing a vortex-covered palm down onto the man.
His opponent was prepared. White bolts of lightning appeared from his arm and grabbed Mel's before it could continue to go forward. A small suction force appeared where their hands connected and pushed against each other.
Time froze then.
Aster stared at him with those grey eyes of his, then drove forward with his other arm. It was subtle, without any sparks or a light show. However, it was way faster.
'Fuck!'
Mel's eyes widened in response. His mind was able to react, but his body couldn't keep up with the speeds.
The arm jabbed straight into his right side, tearing through the skin there like a hot knife through butter.
And then…
BZZT!
This is the first premium chapter! Comment if you got here early enough to read it for free, hahahaha jk. Anyway, I hope you all enjoy the book so far. It's only going to get crazier from here on out. We hit the power stone goal, so a bonus chapter will be coming TOMORROW.
The Power stone goal will be bumped up to 30 power stones for 1 chapter. And aside from that, I'll be setting two new goals for bonus chapters!
20 Golden tickets = 1 chapter
and also a bonus chapter as long as you can get this book to ten reviews!
Any one of those goals achieved and I guarantee you there'll be bonus chapters incoming!
