BXBX NOVEL Chapter 141 - Killing Delo
The Dark Dome Barrier slowly crumbled into pieces after being hit by Dark Tori\'s Dark Barrier Blast.
The pain on Dark Tori\'s eyes were apparent as the battle continued.
Ban felt pity towards Tori\'s situation. He could feel the pain and reluctance that Tori was feeling right now.
Delo slowly got up from the crumbled Dark Dome Barrier. His right arm was already torn off while a portion of his right shoulder was also injured.
Ban estimated that he still got a minute left before the Wrath State ended. He knew that he wouldn\'t be able to bypass Dark Tori\'s raw defense so killing Delo was the only option for him. He thought that Delo was already finished after he successfully pulled that plan earlier, he just did not expect that Dark Tori would be able to react in time and save his owner at the last second.
Ban thought for a split second and he suddenly recalled the Rogue Red Termite leeching off inside his Beast Tattoo. He inspected it for a second and although it still was not completely healed yet, he thought that it should still be able to fight, the Rogue Red Termite was an Elite Grade E-Elite Rank Beast after all.
However, Ban did not summon it out yet. He wanted to use it as a surprise to catch them off guard.
Roar!
Delo produced a beast-like roar as he charged towards Ban again. He charged in like he was not wounded, almost like he did not feel anything from the wounds he got earlier. At the same time, Ban saw Dark Tori at the corner of his eyes trying to initiate another skill again.
Ban did not act hastily as he twirled the Twin Baton in each of his hands. He also did not sit idle as he dashed towards Delo, trying to meet him in the middle.
Delo\'s movement has become even more erratic that his right arm has been torn. However, it was also due to that, that his strikes were no longer as strong as before.
Boom!
Ban blocked his left arm with his Twin Baton. There was only a meager difference from their strength before but now that Delo has already been injured like that, he staggered backwards after Ban blocked his attacks.
Just as Ban was about to strike him while he was still staggering, a Dark Barrier suddenly materializes right in front of his face. It was so abrupt that Ban\'s face even hit the Dark Barrier forcefully. Fortunately, he was wearing the Ant Mask so there was no significant damage dealt with him, only his neck hurts a little.
Ban was taken by surprise by that. He did not expect Dark Tori to block his path with one of his Skills.
Delo managed to recover from the stumble with the assistance provided by Dark Tori. He immediately dashed towards Ban again without a care for his wounds.
Ban also dashed towards him but instead of confronting him head-on just like before, he instead spun his body the moment before they made contact.
Delo brushed past Ban successfully just like what Ban had planned. And just as Delo was about to turn around to attack him, Ban suddenly used his Twin Baton to push Delo\'s back. Ban\'s action made Delo stumble forward like a baby learning to walk for the first time.
Ban ignored Delo and dashed towards Dark Tori instead. Dark Tori saw him approaching so he immediately conjured a Barrier Skill between them.
Seeing that, Ban finally made another smile underneath his Ant Mask again.
Summon!
He yelled inside his head and in that instant, the Beast Tattoo on his chest glowed for a split second. At the same time, a Rogue Red Termite suddenly materializes behind his back.
Ban did not waste any time as he ordered it to attack the stumbling Delo.
At the same time, Ban made sure to distract Dark Tori at this time, not letting him support his owner just like the last time.
Boom!
Ban smashed the Dark Barrier into many pieces before continuing to dash towards Dark Tori again. With that move, Ban was able to cover the Rogue Red Termite with his body from the eyes of Dark Tori.
And with that, Dark Tori materialized another Dark Barrier in front of Ban\'s eyes, unaware of the fact that his owner would be dead soon.
Bullet Strike!
The Rogue Red Termite worked immediately the moment it received Ban\'s order. It dashed swiftly towards the still stumbling Delo to close in on him to make sure that the Bullet Strike would hit the target.
At the same moment the Rogue Red Termite releases the Bullet Strike, was also the same moment that Delo turned around.
Unfortunately for Delo, the last thing he saw before blacking out was a flash of light piercing his eyes, or more precisely, his head.
The Bullet Strike hit Delo\'s head squarely. The Rogue Red Termite times it perfectly that Delo\'s upper head was now basically gone.
His body slowly fell to the hot sand as dark blood and brain oozed out of his head.
The Rogue Red Termite was a bit upset even though it just successfully accomplished its first mission. After all, it just grew back its arm just a little bit earlier and now it was back to zero again after using the Bullet Strike skill.
The Rogue Red Termite could only cry with its imaginary tears as it stared at its now gone insect hand.
At the other part of the battle area, at the same moment Delo died, Dark Tori\'s body suddenly stopped moving right after it created a new Dark Barrier in front of him and Ban.
Ban knew at that instant that the Rogue Red Termite was successful. He heaves a sigh of relief as he knows that they only have that one opportunity left. If the Rogue Red Termite missed its target, then Ban no longer knew what to do anymore other than to try and struggle against Delo and Dark Tori.
He observed Dark Tori and he noticed that the Dark veins had now started to slowly fade away.
At the same time Dark Tori became normal again, his body started to emit light particles while his body started to turn transparent, almost like he was fading out of existence.
