章節 63: I'll Break You - Part 2
* Take It Out on Me - Thousand Foot Krutch *
***
His red pupils sparked for a moment as his night black sclera got a little bit darker. And his fangs spread across his face as if to emphasize that he's enjoying himself.
Without counting to ten, he unleashed his killing intent towards the girl in front of him, cracking the ground in the process.
However, and much to his surprise, the girl just stood there and stared back at him with wide eyes that were boiling with rage that he's never witnessed before.
'She's angry? Not scared?' that was also a first in his life, usually his victims would be so scared that they don't dare look him in the eye.
No, they usually turn tail and run as fast as their bodies could carry them for, just like the rankers around them. Some were too shaken too move a muscle, but others have long disappeared from the scene.
But this crimson-purple haired girl took his killing intent head on and didn't avert her eyes.
To make things worse, while looking at her gaze, he felt inferior to her. Needless to say, he hated that feeling, as it reminded him of how his mother looked down on him just moments before she attempted to eat him alive.
"Trying to threaten me with your killing intent?" Raven was far beyond furious at this point.
Feeling his aura reminded her of the vision she had, with the terror she felt, and with the helplessness she couldn't overcome.
FWOOOOSHH!!
All of a sudden, wind and lightning ignited together in a black and gold mana storm as Raven unleashed her full killing intent, or what she could muster at the time.
The ground rumbled as dark clouds erased the shadows off of it. Dust and debris could be seen rising in the air from the mana density sinking the place deeper into an unforgiving storm.
The monster was rather surprised for a second, even scared. He recalled the terror his mother had instilled in him.
Recovering fast, he felt every fiber in his body screaming for him to kill that human girl.
'Danger!' he knew he should avoid keeping her alive any longer. Maybe at this point of time she was not stronger than himself, but even toying with her was out of the question as she was an anomaly.
She could turn to be way more than he could handle in the near future should he let her live now.
Or even now, she could pull some hidden card that he hadn't taken into account.
"You shall die." he said in a collected yet emotionless tone. Even though Raven couldn't understand the language he was speaking, she understood the meaning of his words.
Raven had already enhanced her armour with her dark element. Dark purple mist and flames could be seen and felt around her as well as the black lightning increased in speed and intensity, producing louder crackling sounds.
Even her newly summoned swords were glowing with Dark and golden runes that pulsed with condensed mana as void black flames could be faintly seen burning around the edges.
Now that she had had a taste of his toughness compared to her swords, she was sure to increase her speed to avoid any hits.
A critical part of her instant preparations was to increase her weapons and armour's durability as well as strength and toughness.
BOOOMM!!
Usually, Raven would be surprised that someone else has the ability to break the sound barrier.
She had never understood how she could do it herself, as it wasn't even among her skill list, so she's never imagined that another living being could do that.
However, her burning rage was taking over the entirety of her feeling space as she didn't even flinch when the monster appeared in front of her with drawn claws.
Having applied mana to cancel the sound explosion again, the monster didn't see, hear, or even feel her flicker and appear behind him.
She slashed through his lower thigh with all of her might. She wasn't an idiot to aim for his head as she's already attacked that area and if the monster had an ounce of intelligence, he'd apply a mana barrier to shield that area.
Normally activating her Scanner Rings in a mana storm like the one she was generating would blind her, but with True Sight, the special skill integrated from the improved Scanner Rings together with improved version of Deadly Vision, enabled her to see through the monster's moves.
That's also why her hits were all perfectly aimed at the monster's uncovered weakness.
That being said, even though she could see, react, and attack in time, she wasn't naive to think that she could either harm him this way, or that her mana will last enough for a final strike.
She was already running low, really low.
The slash across his thigh released a viscous black liquid that connected the two edges of the wound and mended them together.
Her plan was to weaken him as much as she can, and if by any means possible, prevent him from moving as fast as he can now.
She wanted to wait for other S rankers to get to the site to take care of him.
The monster's eyes glowed deep red as he focused on Raven before attempting to lash at her again.
This time he was careful to cover his entire body as he was already enraged that a pitiful human girl could scratch the skin he took pride in. Not once, but twice so far.
"I'll destroy you and this disgusting planet!!" he yelled in his own tongue.
Raven didn't understand a word he said, but she could tell he had lost his cool and succumbed to his rage.
She didn't mind at all as she slashed just under his kneecap with another swipe.
ROOOAAARRRR!!!
To her surprise, even though she didn't do any damage, the monster was more angry than ever.
He jumped towards her to grab her throat but she was already gone by the time he reached the place where she stood just a split second ago.
"You're trying to be angry?" Raven said in a low voice that made the monster subconsciously shiver, albeit for a quick second that he wasn't even aware of.
