"How does that work exactly— actually no, let's not worry about that right now. I need to kill this man for the tragedy he has caused today," Ning said to the system.
Ning concentrated again and brought back his Spear domain.
"You don't want to talk, do you?" Jha'Akim asked. "It's fine. That only means that I will get to have your system even sooner."
Ning didn't speak at all and kept his focus. Jha'Akim saw Ning's intention to fight and prepared himself. His body started changing as thick dragon scales appeared all over his body. There were also horns on top of his head that resembled that of a dragon.
At the same time, a gorgeous wing spread out wide behind him, not so different from those of a Roc's descendant beast.
Ning decided to go take the offensive for himself before Jha'Akim could do anything and teleported once more. That was the only way he knew how to take Jha'Akim off guard.
The moment Ning disappeared, Jha'Akim was surprised again. He hadn't expected him to teleport again, which he should have.
He felt movement in the air behind him and quickly ducked as a spearhead brushed past his horns. With the same momentum, he turned around and brought his dragon claws out to hit Ning.
However, Ning was no longer there. Another slash came at him from the front and it hit him directly on the head, sending him flying into another mountain once again.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNing didn't stop however, He flew into the air and started sending out slashes after slashes towards Jha'Akim.
Dust rose as high as the mountain themselves, and the mountain where Jha'Akim had fallen into didn't even look like one anymore.
Ning stopped after a little while, clearly exhausted. He had done his hardest, holding nothing back in his attacks. However, he was still a little annoyed.
Such attacks weren't working.
The rubble started moving as a bleeding Jha'Akim walked out. There was a large open wound on his forehead and a few other scratches all over his body. However, none of them seemed to be a problem at all.
The wound on his forehead slowly moved as it healed itself. Jha'Akim rubbed that part and said, "You really do hit hard. If not for my scales, I would have probably been quite badly injured."
"Shit!" Ning said quietly. He was already unsure if he could win beforehand, and now that Jha'Akim had broken through to the 5th Spirit Transformation realm, he didn't have much chance.
"I will need to think of something," he thought while remaining vigilant.
"Your teleportation is annoying," Jha'Akim said and flapped his wings once. A massive gust of air rose around Jha'Akim as tornadoes started forming in the air.
Ning got more on guard and checked the tornadoes to be of some threat. They were moving very fast, but it didn't seem like they would do any damage at all.
Seeing that he didn't have to worry, he teleported once again. However, when he reappeared, he realized that Jha'Akim was a little further away from when he should have been.
At the same time, Jha'Akim made a backhanded attack at Ning behind him. Ning disappeared and appeared in front of Jha'Akim but he had moved once more.
He did the same thing a few more times, but every time Ning teleported, Jha'Akim would move just a little bit, but enough to dodge him.
"What's going on?" Ning wondered. He decided to ask the system. When Ning got the answer as to what was happening, he was a little surprised.
"He's using the power of the wind to move faster than he normally could? That's the power of the Roc, isn't it?" Ning thought to himself. "But how is he moving away in the right direction? Am I getting too predictable?"
Ning teleported once more, except this time he teleported high above. When he did that, Jha'Akim didn't move at all, and instead looked confused.
Ning teleported behind him once more and once again he was moving forward. Ning finally understood what was going on.
"He isn't dodging, is he? He is letting his beastly instincts do the work for him. That's why he set up these tornadoes. He wanted to make it easier on himself to move," Ning thought.
Ning stopped attacking. He wasn't going to get any hits in like this. The winds were also disrupting his spears in his domain from doing anything.
"I need to keep him from moving," Ning thought and disappeared once again. However, just as he did, he used Telekinesis to push on him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen he reappeared, instead of moving away, Jha'Akim fell right at him spear. Ning thrust and pushed half of the spearhead into his chest. It wasn't going to be enough for him to die, however.
Jha'Akim moved forward and got away from Ning.
"Dammit! His defense is too high. I can't get my hits all the way in at all," Ning thought.
"You are quite strong," Jha'Akim said. "But you're not strong enough. While you may be more agile than me, I can reach your level soon as well."
"I just need to drink the blood of a few more high-level beasts," he said with a crazy smile. "Let's see… hmm… there seem to still be a few around the world. I should be able to kill them in a few days and then nobody will be able to stop me anymore."
"You are not going anywhere. I will fight you until you die," Ning said with a serious face.
"So either you die or I die, huh?" Jha'Akim asked.
"No, only you will die," Ning said with determination.
"Oh? We will see about that."
Suddenly, Jha'Akim disappeared from in front of Ning. Ning was about to look around when he noticed him reappear behind him.
Ning tried to move away but it was too late. A sharp claw pierced through his back and came out through his chest.
Jha'Akim's voice then came from behind him.. "It seems you forget that I can teleport as well."
