章節 123: Chapter 63: Docks On Fire! (Part 2)
Kais: "AAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!"
I can't help but yell as I get thrown in the air only to land at the docks.
What the hell!? When did he get this fast!?
Kais: "That bastard is really powerful, isn't he?"
I ask as I help myself up while keeping a hold at my stomach, where I got a punch about a couple of seconds ago.
Gabriel: "That's true."
Kais: "WHA-"
Before I can even realize and react to the fact that he is already behind me, I get a punch across my face throwing me at a pile of cargo.
Kais: "AAAAHHH!!!"
Shit! This is getting kinda bad.
Gabriel: "Is teleporting and talking all you can do, kid?"
He says as, once again covering the distance in a flash, tries to pounce on me with his leg. This time though, I am able to teleport myself out of the way. As his foot pounces on ground, he turns to right to look at me as I stand up as fast as I can.
Gabriel: "Was that enough to make you all change your minds about joining me?"
He asks sarcastically as he knows the answer to that question.
Kais: "Oh well,"
I say with a smirk,
Kais: "We aren't that boring."
It would definitely be pretty boring if we just give up and agree to him now.
What wouldn't be boring though – would be flying. Since I can't levitate as I have not practiced that skill much, I just run to a different pile of cargo than the one I had been thrown at and jump on it.
Gabriel: "What now!?"
He asks with a grin and soon gets his answer as he keeps his eyes fixed on me. With energy pumped into my foot, I jump off the cargo – into the air.
Gabriel: "Ha!"
With a cackle, he follows as he just jumps off the ground by the same technique I used just now and still reach me 100 meters above the ground.
Gabriel: "If this is as far as you can jump from Energy Manipulation, then I am disappointed in you."
Hearing that, my smirk grows wider.
Kais: "If you think whatever you see is the extent of what is going on, then I am disappointed in you."
As soon as hears that, he turns around to look at the cargo I jumped off of thrown in the air by the spirit Sagzear. And as soon as he sees that, he also sees that Sneha Stone, after having powered a lot of energy in her hands, punches the air. This punch causes so much impact that the cargo boxes break and as they were filled with gunpowder, it all explodes.
Gabriel: "Haha!"
He laughs as he sees that.
Gabriel: "I can understand that you were relaying to them to do all this and so were slow in responding to me but still, an explosion so far away from me? What point does it serve?"
Kais: "And you remain thick-headed!"
I say with a mocking tone causing him to tense up a little.
Kais: "The explosion isn't the point, the fire is."
Pyrokinesis is an ability I lack practice at too and so it takes me a whole 15 seconds to create good enough firepower. However, if the fire exists from before and I just have to control it, then it wouldn't even take a second to use it to my advantage.
Kais: "Now burn!"
I yell as I swing my hands while using pyrokinesis to make the fire from the explosion attack Gabriel.
Gabriel: "Tsk!"
He clicks his tongue and then charges energy into his hand and releases a punch in the air. While he hits nothing, the reactive force causes him to fly away from the path of the fire. Too bad for him, as long as I am controlling the fire, I can make it follow him no matter where he goes. And, I do so.
Gabriel: "Damn!"
He curses whoever he does and keeps applying the same strategy as before to get away. While I make the fire pursue him, I also make sure to keep the oxygen in the air burning rapidly to make sure the fire in my possession keeps spreading.
Looking at Gabriel running away and the fire pursuing him makes it look like a god's fury chasing after a rabbit that upset him.
Well, I wouldn't be so presumptuous as to call myself a god but calling him a rabbit does sound pretty good.
Gabriel: "How stupid!"
He suddenly remarks and flashes a smile as he teleports himself away from where he was. He teleports himself right where I had earlier. He probably chose that place to teleport to because it is far away from fire and close to the ground. Getting a little time after getting on ground should be enough for him to come up with something to counter this fire. However,
Kais: "Whoever said my fire would take time to reach you!?"
I say as I burn the oxygen in the air to make the fire reach him within an instant, but,
Gabriel: "I wasn't counting on that."
He says as he puts up a psycho-barrier around him. This barrier is probably the best thing ever if you use it and the most annoying thing ever if an opponent uses it. It is just near impossible to break a psycho-barrier of a psychic who is powerful enough to create it well. That is why,
Gabriel: "Feeling lost!?"
He starts to mock me. But, this wasn't out of my calculations.
Kais: "It's up to you!"
I shout, not looking at anyone so he doesn't know which of the three people I am talking to.
Therefore, he does not see an attack coming from underground, an attack by a particular mole-spirit.
Gabriel: "Shit!"
He curses as the small hands of the mole-spirit grab his leg and start pulling him down.
This is the one and only weakness of the Psycho-Barrier. While it covers a person on all sides, and on all angles, it doesn't infiltrate solid objects. Being inside a Psycho-Barrier is like being in a perfectly spherical ball.
If you want to stand on the ground, then you'll have to remove the lower portion of the ball which comes in between your legs and the ground.
However, in removing this portion, you also make yourself vulnerable to an attack from inside the ground. And that is exactly what happened here.
Kais: "Feeling lost!?"
I return his earlier remark as I look at him struggling against the mole. As he hears that,
Gabriel: "How pathetic of me, isn't it!?"
He says as he puts his hand in the hole the mole-spirit dug up and puts extreme amounts of energy in it.
Kais: "Oh … crap!"
I realize what he is trying to do, and before I can do anymore than give that remark, he does it. He tears off the ground into two parts and throws the mole-spirit, Jin, off his leg.
Gabriel: "Now you are going down, suckers!"
He charges at me as he says that. I try to get away but am not able to get much further before he closes the distances enough and hits me with a fist as hard as diamond and throws me flying past one of the two piles of cargo we were in for all this time.
Kais: "Aw shit!"
I say, falling on the ground, as I quickly start healing myself through the ability called Psychic Healing. While I do that, Sneha and Sagzear distract Gabriel, or at least try to. I can only hear the voices of them getting beaten down and cursing from back there.
And then,
Ethan: "Looks like your plan really worked out pretty well, didn't it?!"
Kais: "Hah!"
I sigh at the sarcasm that comes from behind.
Kais: "You being grumpy about being made to look like a fool before is the last thing I need right now."
Ethan: "Ha!"
He chuckles as he hears that.
Ethan: "Well, good news for you. I actually have a plan that might work against that monster."
Kais: "Oh yeah? Get to it then!"
*******************************
Sona: "Tsk!"
With Sneha and Sagzear both on the ground and Jin being called back by the woman standing a little further away and clicking her tongue in irritation, Gabriel has pretty much won the battle. However,
Ethan: "Hey loser!"
A voice calls out to him, a voice that annoys him greatly.
Gabriel: "Oh look, it's the troll again!"
Ethan merely smiles at that remark as he walks up to Gabriel and asks,
Ethan: "Tell me something, why are you so dead-set on killing all those Vampire Kingdom commanders. Did they do something to you?"
Gabriel: "Tsk!"
Ethan: "No, no!"
He puts a hand to his chin as he shakes his head in denial.
Ethan: "They couldn't have done something to YOU. It probably was someone close to you, wasn't it?"
Gabriel: "You-"
While cutting off his words, Ethan continues with a smirk,
Ethan: "Now who could that be? By the look of things,"
He looks at Gabriel's fingers, or more precisely, the finger that has the mark of a ring on it, as if a ring has been taken out of it recently.
Ethan: "It was your fiancée, wasn't it? Or wait! Maybe, it was all of your in-laws too."
Gabriel: "You bastard!"
He grabs Ethan by the collar in frustration.
Ethan: "Now if they have been attacked by some vampire and their blood had been drunk, I doubt you'd be as particular as wanting to kill the commanders of Vampire Kingdom."
Gabriel: "Why you!?"
Ethan: "How was it!?"
Those words leave Gabriel unable to answer as he remembers the scene in his fiancée's house, the scene that had horrified him to his core.
Ethan: "Were all the bodies tied to the ceiling? Were they all left in with different 'designs', some having clothes torn and others having limbs?"
Ethan's smirk does not grow bigger, but to Gabriel, it feels more and more irritating every time he speaks.
Gabriel: "How the hell can you tell all that?"
Ethan: "…"
Gabriel: "Answer me, god damnit!"
Ethan: "It was Bronzer, wasn't it?"
