Chapter 26: Dontavius
Enopy pulled himself back to reality as he leaped backward, dodging Dontavius's kick; he kept his hands behind his back, and it was obvious that he took Dontavius as a joke.
"Come here," Dontavius shouted as he leaped off the ground and chased after Enopy.
The chase did not last long.
Enopy leaped backward, dodging Dontavius's attack; he kicked Dontavius and disturbed his stance, making him stumble.
Enopy took this chance and ran to Dontavius's side, he kicked him into the air, breaking a couple of his ribs.
Dontavius used his changed aura to reinforce his body; he then moved at a fast speed and appeared next to Enopy.
Enopy saw him but was too slow to parry his attack. He was flung into the transparent membrane, the punch had opened Enopy's old wounds.
He had used his aura when he saw the previous attack coming his way, which saved him from getting serious injuries.
He was about to run to Dontavius, but he stopped himself when he saw Dontavius a couple of feet away from him.
Dontavius ran at Enopy with an attack ready.
He punched at Enopy but was unsurprised when Enopy dodged the attack.
"Haa" Dontavius used a technique making his hands be covered by huge green gauntlets, that sent a burst of energy out, blowing Enopy away.
"What!?" Enopy exclaimed in his head, as he made swift moves and activated his quiet and swift technique, while he materialized his swords.
He sprinted towards the incoming Dontavius.
Enopy swung his sword, and Dontavius beamed his gauntlet-covered fist at him.
"Clang!" They clashed and continued with a barrage of attacks, neither side wanted to back down even with their increasing number of injuries.
Enopy jumped back for less than a second; he wanted his opponent to punch the air and find a weak spot in that time, but In this battle, he noticed that his opponent had great control over his body, so he was left with a short time to find weak spots or disrupt him.
Enopy moved his swords in 2 directions at once, aiming for different places on Dontavius's body.
Dontavius had a slow reaction allowing Enopy's sword to cut him, but he was still able to block Enopy from landing serious injuries.
"Aye, look over there."
"What!? How can somebody match Dontavius other than Eckon?"
"What!?, Dontavius!…. An unknown youngster equally matches the previous undefeated champ?"
"Huuu, it seems the Dontavius has lost his throne, such a disappointment."
Voices rang out from all directions.
Enopy and Dontavius paid no mind to the various voices as they continued with their battle.
"Be quiet! you don't know anything Dontavius hasn't even used the most powerful move stay quiet until then" a shrill voice rang out, causing everyone to turn towards its origin.
It was an old lady.
"Oh, it's Dontavius's grandmother."
Voices full of sanction rang out.
"Be quiet!" Dontavius said as his eyes never left Enopy.
"Damn, I'm left with no choice," Dontavius said with a furious expression.
Suddenly a burst of energy erupted from him as his green aura spread soon; his aura and fragrance condensed around him, creating a huge spikey armor.
Enopy had leaped back and observed his opponent; he was unable to get close due to the raging aura, and he was now unable to touch his opponent due to the thick armor.
When the aura/fragrance calmed down, Enopy instantly dashed towards his opponent; he let out a barrage of attacks, while Dontavius stood still and looked at Enopy as he attacked the armor with full force.
Dontavius raised his heavy hand and put it over Enopy.
"BoOm!" Dontavius dropped his fist over Enopy, trying to kill him in one blow, but unlike his expectations, Enopy dodged.
Enopy sprang back towards Dontavius and stabbed his swords at different points on Dontavius' body.
Dontavius was about to block the attacks, but suddenly Enopy's swords turned as if they were curved and stabbed into his thigh and elbow through the opening between the leg and the torso, and his elbow through the gap on his elbow.
He faced two injuries at the same time.
"Haha, these minor cuts are noting if you can't reach my arteries and deal a fatal attack, "Dontavius said as he showed his contempt and pride.
Enopy showed no reaction to that show of power, that Dontavius put on, as he continued to look and aim for weak spots.
"He is covered in a thick layer of armor; he has little movement, but he could be acting, so I should keep my guard up, but right now, he seems like a sitting duck. I should continue with this way of attacking, even if I don't land fatal attacks; if I keep adding more and more small injuries, he will eventually have a reaction," Enopy thought as he never stopped his endless barrage of attacks.
Soon enough, Enopy's thoughts became a reality, and Dontavius attacked.
Enopy slashed toward Dontavius, aiming for the weak points in his massive armor.
Suddenly, Dontavius moved, as Enopy expected Dontavius moved quickly, kicking him across the stage breaking a few ribs and his arm.
Enopy was injured greatly, but he used his fragrance to pop his bones into place and keep them there, he had his guard up and was able to protect his vital parts.
It took him no time to stabilize his injuries as he sprinted toward Dontavius.
This time, Dontavius did not stay still; he jumped towards Enopy, and beamed through the air.
They clashed their impact created a storm of wind, it seemed as if time had stopped, and the sight of Dontavius punching Enopy's swords and Enopy's feet prints stamped onto the hard iron ground.
They stayed like this for a few seconds before white flashes flew around the stage, and they disappeared.
"Huh, what's going on? Where did they go."
Various voices full of confusion rang out.
But the higher-ranked people in the audience knew what was happening, and were paying close attention.
"Let me explain you low ranks," a man with long blond hair and sparkly makeup announced.
"Oh, it's him."
"Why is here."
The people that could tell what was happening in Enopy's battle complained.
The man ignored their comments and said, "they are moving faster than the speed of sound; it seems that despite them being in rank one their power is in the second stage."
"What!?"
"How is this possible!?"
Voices full of surprise resounded throughout the area.
"The kid, uhh, what was his name? Oh right, Enopy would be winning if he had actual techniques; it's a pity, the man said as he put on a pitiful expression."
"Can you shut up, Matics?"
Due to Matics, the voices went from surprise to annoyance.
Meanwhile, the injuries on Enopy's body piled up, putting him in critical health, but that didn't stop him from attacking the thick armor, which now had cracks running through it.
Enopy had not once used the energy in his core that entire time he stepped into the magic knight rank, but he could tell that he needed to use it or there could be fatal consequences.
The endless barrage of attacks went on as Enopy got slower and slower, giving his enemy an advantage, and getting closer to his imminent death.
"Fuck, I have to," Enopy's screamed in his mind as he let himself be flung back by an attack from his opponent.
He soon hit the transparent membrane; he seemed to be dead, but that did not last long as Enopy's aura was sent out of his body, and raging energy was released.
