Chapter 606: VS “Anubis” (1) Part IV

Clank~

Before they realized it, Anubis had already torn the magic chains apart as if it were tearing a piece of paper. Even after that, it still had energy left to swing the spear at the boys so powerfully that they were blown away in different directions!

“Ah!” Wisana clasped the new wound on his neck and closed one eye. “That’s crazy. That imprisonment works on Samie, and it takes only a yank from this guy?!”

“Did you forget, Vincent?” Shin gritted his teeth and pushed himself up with the help of his spear. “This is a magic monster. Of course, it knows how to decast the spell.”

“Shit!”

Wisana swore softly. He knew now why his magic was so light on it. Sander had always said that ‘Magic is the world of the fittest survives’. People with more magic power always won.

If he recalled correctly, its magic attack was at around five thousand!

This was bad...

He had already lost?!

HOOOOOOO~~~!!

Anubis, who was watching them and seeing that no one was trying to counterattack, let out a loud growl that both players had to cover their ears.

“Why did it scream?!” Wisana shouted while closing one eye.

In the blink of an eye, the dark muscular body of the enemy dashed at him again. Wisana was so shocked his eyes rolled up. His sense immediately ordered him to ...duck!!

Swooosh!!

The blade of the spear cut through the wind and caused a loud screeching noise. The boy’s heart sank to the ground. If he had not ducked just now, his head would have been on the ground, too!

He glanced up at the enemy, seeing that its red eyes were glaring at him. Not only that, but it also swung the spear so fast and whipped it down in a straight line. The boy dodged it just in time!

“Yikesss~~~!! Can’t you let me breathe!?”

He shamelessly ran backward while Anubis was still landing his attacks. He wanted to gain his footing back first since he would never be able to attack it in this state!

“Duck, Vincent!”

“Wait, Shin!”

Swoooosh!!

And again, his flexibility saved his life. Wisana ducked and flipped forward to avoid whatever was dashing at him from the front just now. It was even less than a millimeter away from his head. That thing went straight into Anubis who was running behind him!

Slash!

18,852

A small damage point caused by Shindanai’s spear appeared. Shin decided to ambush it by getting in front of Wisana and attacking it before it realized what was happening. ...It worked. Now, the red eyes were fixed on the young crusader instead!

“Have you only learned to run away from all these trainings, Vincent?!”

Shin shouted and got into the ready position. The man on the ground only scoffed.

“I didn’t have a chance to do anything!” Wisana said.

“Now you have the chance. Do something.”

Shin punched back verbally, even though he was occupied with Anubis, too. Their movements were so terrifyingly neck and neck. Their spear skill was that of a professional. They kept attacking each other without backing down since it would definitely cause a fortune.

“And what can I do? I only have my hands and no weapons. My greatest magic move did nothing.”

“Do something. Bite the ear, kick it in the balls, yank its nose hair or something that can stall us some time or somehow put it at a disadvantage.”

Shin yelled at him. To be honest, he could not fight this thing alone. Each attack of his was exhausting and difficult. He did not even think about the damage anymore, just trying to land the spear on it was hard enough!

“Putting it at a disadvantage...?”

Wisana thought about what Shin just said. Then, he grinned.

Yes, he could do something with that!

He suddenly sprang himself up and ran into the battle once again. Anubis saw the boy and greeted him back by flicking the tip of the spear at his neck. However, Wisana was more agile than that. He leaned back in a flash and the hit missed him.

He did not hesitate to balance himself on the ground and turned himself around for the roundhouse kick with all his might!

Joint Break!

8,855

Even though the hit caused only a little damage, Wisana could not hide the satisfaction on his face. And this was the very first time that Anubis’s face turned so wry!

HOOOOO!!

It growled so loudly. Wisana pushed Shin back for safety.

“Don’t cry just because you got hit in the knee, my friend.” He grinned.

“What have you done?” Shin asked.

He saw that Anubis’s knee was in pain. It even bent down and covered the knee with its hands.

“Of course, that makes it unable to move freely.”

“What?”

Joint Break

*A move of the melee fighters that puts the enemy at a disadvantage. It’s a B-level move. Its abilities vary, depending on where the enemy’s weak point is. If it hits the leg, the enemy will be slowed down. If it hits the arm, the attack power will be reduced. If it hits the torso, the defense will be weakened. Even though it seems to be a great move, it’s hard for it to be the most effective if the user hasn’t mastered it or isn’t accurate enough with the hit.

Wisana smiled and called the monster information screen up for Shin to see.

Shin saw the updated information and understood immediately what had happened to Anubis. It was clear that even though the hit could not pierce its shield, its great speed had been reduced greatly!

“I don’t have to tell you what to do next, right?!” Wisana shouted.

“You can be useful if you want to.”

Shin smirked and went back to the enemy again. Wisana also dashed out. When Anubis realized that the boys were going to land attacks on it again, of course, it would not let that happen. With all its might, it whipped the spear at Wisana.

But that was it...

If the attack was not from the blind spot or too powerful, even bullets could not hit him!

Swoooosh~

The tip of the blade was flicked past his face only an inch away. The fresh small wound on his left cheek did not stop him at all. The boy went into its attack range and opened his palms before slamming them on Anubis’s torso!

Joint Break

6,887

The same move got Anubis bent down in pain. It was obvious that the move was effective. It should have reduced its physical defense so greatly!

HOOOOOO!!

The God of Death growled aggressively. He tried to grab Wisana with his other hand, but Wisana’s agility ordered him to duck and sneak through between Anubis’s legs. He was just like a monkey.

“You’re too slow!” Wisana stuck out his tongue. “Are you sure you want to target me? I’m only a decoy here. The other man is the one who’ll land a final blow on you.”

Spear Charge

Before Anubis even realized that it was played, the Longinus was pierced into its neck so accurately. It did not even have a chance to scream or get itself together. Anubis fell on its back with so many damage points!

398,885

The damage multiplied. It showed how effective Wisana’s skill was!

“Ah, that was a great hit. But don’t fall just yet. This is just the beginning, brother.”
