Chapter 41 Battle Of Promise Part 5
"Damn! What kind of power is this? How can anyone produce bone?"
Kiro muttered with an ugly expression. He used his sword to block three long bone spears but the power shook him.
He knew this was the power of his second awakening but it was still shocking. He hasn\'t seen any kind of power that can create bones from internal energy.
Kim didn\'t answer his question but rather quickly charged forward. He produced a sharp bone structure around his foot and kicked.
When he swung his leg, the bone structure enlarged in size as it moved toward Kiro.
Seeing this, Kiro immediately raised his leg while blocking those bone spears with his sword.
Bang!
"Argh!"
Only when he collided against the bone leg, he realized the hardness of the bone. Even without Armament Technique, it had the hardness of steel.
He felt like his leg would fracture after the second collision. Kim had already withdrawn his foot but he was already to attack once again.
Seeing this, Kiro gritted his teeth.
\'Alright! I was just using my usual strength to deal with him. But now, I must use my real power. It\'s a shame that I am using it for someone who hasn\'t even condensed Aura but I can\'t let him live.\'
Strong people have pride. Naturally, Kiro also had pride. Seeing that Kim wasn\'t even a Senior Martial Artist, he was unwilling to use Aura.
But now, he didn\'t care about it anymore. Killing Kim was much more important than preserving his pride.
So, the next moment, gloomy energy gushed out of him. It was like gas. It covered his body and suddenly, he swung his sword. With the Aura covering the entire sword, he managed to shatter those bone spears into pieces.
\'Aura! It seems like even with my Undying Body and Perfect Martial Body, it would be a hard battle. I need to use the Bone Creation skill to its fullest.\'
Thinking so, Kim instantly moved his hands and closed his palms together. The next moment, a crazy amount of spiritual energy surged toward him. With the spiritual energy entering his body from his skin, he continuously supplied the internal energy into his skin.
Perfect Martial Body- It was a unique constitution that allowed him to absorb spiritual energy from the surrounding with his skin and quickly refine it into internal energy.
It increased his refining speed by five times, giving him an immense supply of internal energy during the battle.
Perfect Martial Body wasn\'t a natural constitution but rather something that was created out of his Battle Soul. So, once his spiritual power hits 0, it will vanish.
Of course, unlike internal energy, it would take a long time to consume spiritual power. And, it had grown a lot thanks to his constant growth in Willpower.
"Damn it! What kind of monster are you?"
Kiro roared when he saw what Kim was doing.
Applying the internal energy outside his skin, and producing the armor of bone with the help of internal energy. He was basically preparing powerful armor to fight him.
The Bone Armor covered his chest, arms, legs, and neck. Except for these, he wasn\'t worried about other parts of him being cut apart. He could still heal with Undying Body.
"Tch! You, one of the Asura is calling me a monster?" Kim couldn\'t help but sneer at him. He quickly raised his fist which was covered with a bone glove and punched forward.
Although his body was covered in Bone Armor, his size didn\'t increase that much and his body was relatively fast.
But Kiro was still faster. His body vanished in front of Kim\'s sight and instantly appeared behind.
Because the bone armor was around his chest, the sword in his hand only managed to cut his lower back.
Kim didn\'t turn around but rather moved his elbow and swung. His elbow struck Kiro\'s sword and stopped but managed to push Kiro away.
Kim narrowed his eyes for a moment.
He quickly turned around and rushed toward Kiro once again. His speed was fast but Kiro was faster. With the enhancement of his Aura, his speed was several times faster.
He vanished in front of Kim once again and attacked from the side. He was aiming at the body parts that weren\'t covered in bones.
He constantly attacked from different sides but Kim constantly used his bones to push away Kiro.
\'This time, I have to strike his head.\'
Kiro thought to himself and suddenly vanished. His body appeared in front of Kim while hovering in mid-air. His speed was too fast but at this moment, a series of lightning flashed out of him.
[Heretic Evil Seed- Thunder Step]
Kim felt like his body was electrocuted. He felt the series of lightning bolts around him and the power surging into his bones.
His speed suddenly increased and he moved back. His right arm rose at the speed of lightning and moved toward Kiro.
Kiro was shocked by the sudden appearance of lightning bolts. But, he didn\'t care. He quickly covered himself in Aura while marching forward.
Bang! Crash!
But, Kiro was shocked when the punch landed on his face. A sharp sound of tearing emerged near his ears. The next moment, he noticed the sharp spikes on his bone glove.
Splash! Crack!
But before he could dodge it, the bone spikes pierced his Aura and punched his cheek. The spikes pierced his skin and struck so hard that his cheekbones cracked.
Whoosh! Crash!
His body flew out like a cannonball and struck the wall before landing on the ground. But, due to his Aura, his body wasn\'t damaged. He quickly got up and looked at Kim with confusion.
"How you can break my Aura Cloak?"
"Why can\'t I break it?" Kim sneered and instantly rushed forward. His speed surprised Kiro for a moment but this time, Kiro was prepared.
He enhanced his Aura and his suddenly disappeared. His speed was even faster than Kim\'s.
Although Kim was using the lightning power to move, it wasn\'t truly the speed of lightning.
It wasn\'t even the speed of sound.
It was just enhanced speed.
Compared to Kiro\'s speed which has almost reached half of the speed of sound, it was too slow.
Kiro once again attacked his weak points. But thanks to his Undying Body, Kim was able to heal quickly.
Even so, using Undying Body continuously was taking a huge toll on his body.
It wasn\'t his natural constitution so the consequences of using were his spiritual power and stamina.
Both were depleting constantly.
So, when Kiro continuously attacked, Kim also returned the favor with a few punches and kicks. Unfortunately, his punches and kicks couldn\'t break the Aura Cloak around Kiro.
After attacking different parts of his body, Kiro once again decided to attack his head. But instead of going from the front, he decided to attack from the back.
He condensed a large amount of aura around his sword, also inserting a large amount of internal energy inside it.
Although Kim had a bone helmet, he was sure that this sword can pierce Kim. Unlike normal attacks, this was one of his martial art as well.
[Seven Hells Sword Art]
[First Hell- Tongue Devil]
Suddenly, his sword changed. It became ferocious, releasing an immense power on the tip of the sword.
Kiro emerged behind Kim and struck forward. It was fast. It was sharp but instead of piercing the bone, it only pierced the air.
Kim had suddenly ducked. But, the next moment, his body rose. His fist moved up and several spikes appeared on his fist.
At this moment, his right fist was covered in flames. The power of flames intensified at the spikes as he moved his fist up.
Bang!
His fist landed on Kiro\'s chin, giving him a perfect uppercut. The intense Aura Cloak blocked the fist but the spikes covered in flames pierced the cloak.
Splash! Crack! Bang!
Those spikes pierced his skin and struck his bone. His body flew up and struck the ceiling, breaking out of it.
The intense pain struck his mind. At this moment, Kiro\'s eyes turned red and his blood started boiling.
Twice!
His Aura cloak was pierced twice. His attacks were dodged twice.
It felt like he was playing on Kim\'s palm. And, even after strengthening his Aura Cloak, Kim\'s fist still pierced it.
What does that mean?
Kim had been playing against him from the start. Using the same strategy to break him and until now, he didn\'t even notice it.
Play weak and strike strong.
Kim\'s normal attacks were too normal. But, when it comes to a moment where he had a chance to strike, his attack would surpass the previous attack power.
Roar!
The anger burst out of him and his body started to transform. At this moment, Kiro realized that he can\'t hold back anymore.
His body transformed into Asura\'s Body. With black scales covering his body and two horns coming out of his head.
But, he was still in mid-air. He looked at Kim and his internal energy burst out alongside his Aura.
It covered his sword. Holding the sword with both of his hands, Kiro raised his sword and slashed.
[Second Hell- Scissor Devil]
The dark and gloomy energy burst out of his sword. The aura transformed the energy into a sword as it moved toward the ground.
Seeing the massive sword slash that almost covered his house, cold sweat appeared on his forehead. At this moment, a new move suddenly emerged in his mind.
Kim clenched his teeth and raised both of his hands. The bones on his body disappeared and slowly formed the giant Pyramid.
