Crackle! When the fog and clouds of dust finally cleared up, Allen’s full figure could be seen.
He was standing with his feet farther than hip distance apart. His elbows were bent close to his sides while his hands fisted and were faced upward in front of him.
On his right hand was a golden gauntlet with spikes on its knuckle area. Golden sparks like playful snakes dance around it.
“[ Beast Armament ]; [ Lightning Fang ]!”
It looked magnificent and state of the art but anyone could feel the danger it possesses.
“Isn’t it already time to end this, Qilin.” With a smile, Allen’s glare suddenly became very sharp.
“… Since we are in China, why don’t I show you my martial arts…?” Allen with a haughty and overbearing expression, he clenched his fist with the golden gauntlet and the electric sparks intensified.
His form was like those from Chinese martial art movies. Even his expression and stance was like that of one.
As a look of pure delight spread across Allen’s face, his heated blood rushed to his brain which kicked into overdrive to allow him to grasp faster combat assessments and reactions.
Allen was once the strongest monster tamer in the world but even so, being a monster tamer has its disadvantages.
With most of his ability centered in taming monsters, he has only a few outside class attack skills.
Because of that, Allen played a little with different martial arts even coming up several custom skills such as his [ Phantom ], an illusion-like footwork.
“... Martial arts can make the powerless strong, but when mighty strength is paired with peerless martial technique, I dare say the results are extraordinary.” Allen muttered.
“… Now I shall show you why I, even though was just a monster tamer, I still managed to become one of the most powerful humans in the world of monsters!”
And then, by the time the Qilin realized it, the black clothed youth was already standing right in front of it.
Hm--? When did he approach? The Qilin completely failed to react.
Allen waved his hand and it fell straight on the head of the Qilin. Allen’s palm was extended out of his hand, forming a dragon claw. His fingers slightly curled pointing upward with the exception of his ring finger and pinky which was pointing downward.
His foot step across the other as he rotates his waist, bringing forward the same side as his striking hand to add more power.
Crackle! The lightning around his golden gauntlet intensified and the originally fast movement became even faster, almost bypassing the speed of sound!
The Lightning Qilin who reacted by instinct tried to dodge it but it was shocked to notice that Allen’s hand became even faster, that its eyes almost couldn’t follow.
Bang!
The Lightning Qilin’s body looked like it was rammed by a truck as it was sent flying to the ground like a cannonball.
This unimaginable power caused the surrounding to gape in shock.
Even Mia’s eyes unconsciously widened and her mouth started twitching. Is this really Allen’s power? Isn’t this too exaggerated!?
He actually took a sacred mythical beast like a Qilin off guard and even sends its huge body flying?
They didn’t even saw how Allen moves much less attack!
Rooarr!!
The Qilin angrily roared and the rubbles piling on top of it was sent flying.
It then looked at Allen but at this moment, His body moved and the next time it appeared again was already standing on the ground and was standing not too far away from it.
Kicking off from the ground, he shot straight forward. Allen moved in a zig-zag motion and his movements are like that of a mythical Chinese dragon.
Swoosh! Allen flashed like lightning and he arrived near the Lightning Qilin in less than a second. He raised his foot and drives a kick forward while rotating his waist and hips to add power to it.
[ Heavy Legs ]!
But as expected of the Qilin, it was now somewhat used to Allen’s unbelievable speed and managed to saw it, albeit barely.
Roaar!!
It turned into lightning and dodged, fortunately, it was a bit too slow and was hit in the cheek by Allen’s kick which was once again amplified by the golden gauntlet and turned into lightning.
But with this, the Qilin’s composure returned.
It almost dodged it?! A beast’s instinct sure is something… Allen praised inwardly.
The Qilin then raised its foreleg and its claws came in Allen’s direction.
The golden gauntlet issued a faint cry and Allen’s right arm revolves backward, causing Allen’s whole body to twist and miraculously escaped the attack.
It was a miracle that Allen was able to avoid that. Fortunately, there was Lightning who was doing his best or maybe it was just his character that was usually accumulated...?
The pure white ferocious claws contained an immense destructive power to kill, that Allen could even feel it with the naked eye. The remainder of the claws instantly blew away the wreckage littering in the place, cutting into the ground.
After being cut, the cracked earth lamented, creating a cliff that can give anyone an illusion that it would lead to hell.
Allen hasn’t come back yet when the second claw came at him. The speed is fast, making Allen unable to react in time but again, Allen’s right arm, the golden gauntlet once again issued a faint cry and Allen’s arm raised upward, successfully blocking the claws.
Rooaar!!
The Qilin was enraged. Allen was too slippery!
With accumulated experience, Allen reflexively coordinated his actions and his foot stepped in a zigzag motion. In his each step forward, the rear foot moves forward and becomes the forward foot.
However, the step is not taken directly forward but basically, follows the angle the front foot in an around 33 degrees.
Successfully dodging, Allen lowered his stance and widened his eye as he used a palm to strike at the Qilin’s center while twisting it to give a spin to it.
Caught off guard once again, Allen mercilessly struck the chest of the Lightning Qilin directly at the heart.
The Qilin felt an unprecedented amount of pain stabbing at his internal organs.
You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.
"Ku…."
But Allen didn’t stop!
A follow-up came soon after.
Like a whip, Allen spun a roundhouse kick, sweeping his leg like a dragon tail at the beast. Allen’s stance was in favor and it allowed him to successfully strike the Qilin sending it flying towards a broken house.
“Amazing…”
Afraid of getting involved in the aftermath of each blows, Sun Yueli and the others immediately stepped back. But their breaths couldn’t help but stopped for a moment as they watch the intense battle unfolding in front of them.
They had never seen this kind of fight before!
Especially the newbies as well as the members of the [ Long ] group including Sun Yingyun, Tong Fu, and Ye Shishi.
They had thought that they are special people ever since they become Superhumans but now, looking at this fight they realized that they are sh*t!
No, they are worse than sh*t!
This is the real power! This is the real strength!
Raya watched the fight with sparkling eyes as if she was a child watching a cartoon for the first time.
“This is the Cloud Dragon style of the Heavenly Cloud Mountain Sect…” Tang Yu muttered while watching Allen’s movements.
Strong, smart, deceptive and unpredictable. These were the characteristics of the Cloud Dragon style of the Heavenly Cloud Mountain Sect.
This is what Allen stol – ahem, borrowed from the Holy Maiden of the Heaven Cloud Mountain Sect.
Unlike the others, Ye Yuesheng didn’t care about the fight and her only concern was Allen’s well-being. She just hoped that Allen could win and survive without any grave injuries.
While looking at Allen fighting in front of her, she was clenching her fists so hard that marks of her fingernails were as clear as day on her palms.
Therefore, she didn’t know how strong Allen was showing.
But, she knew that it was awesome and this only made her worship Allen even more.
Mia also stepped back a few steps, but her heart was still in turmoil.
In fact, it wasn’t the first time that she had seen Allen fighting like this. It could even be said that this was the original Allen she had known.
The Allen before joining the [ Dawn Alliance ].
Strong, Wild and Powerful.
But even so, Mia couldn’t help but draw a sharp intake of breath while she watched on.
Allen became this powerful in just a short amount of time!
How long has it been?
After a series of training, she had grown. She had broken through to the 3rd level of the Superhuman Realm through intense fighting and training. She thought that she had closed the distance between her and Allen, but she never expected that she had been left in the dust.
At that moment, Allen was fiercer and more powerful than any Superhuman she had ever seen. Whether it was Mark or Daniel, or even her, he repressed them, be it in his bearing or his power.
Whether it was Mark or Daniel, or even her, he repressed them, be it in his bearing or his power.
How is this possible!?
And here she was thinking that her current advancement is already too fast…
Normal Superhumans growth speed was like a normal car while she was akin to an F1. However, Allen still far exceeds them. His advancement almost like a bullet train!
But how? How did he become this strong?
What did he experience?
How was it possible for him to improve in such an exaggerated manner in such a short period of time?
She hasn’t seen him for a month or two but how could someone change in that small span of time?
Superhuman advancing to another level isn’t just like running a kilometer to another kilometer.
Allen, how far will you go with that power…?
Allen in the previous world is already an existence that could be said as monstrous. His power could be said as one in a million, no a billion.
Monster Tamers might be a good profession but normally they aren’t as powerful as those attack-based class such as [ Swordsman ]and their defensive abilities aren’t as good as defensive-based classes like [ Guardian ].
They could use beast and monsters in battle but they have their limitations.
Though they are very important in mob battles and war... But one against one, they are clearly at disadvantage.
In the first place, taming monster has many limitations; Numbers of monsters being tamed and the strength of the monster.
Usual Beast Tamers possess only four to five tamed monsters.
Special and powerful people possess above ten but would never be more than twenty. In addition, mostly their strength would never be stronger than the tamers themselves.
Only significant few tamers have the ability to enslave stronger monsters like humanoid species such as harpies, Naga, and others.
Taming monsters above them requires not only luck but also strength.
That is why Allen’s existence in the previous world was an anomaly. His fame and power rouse the monster tamers heights in another level, causing the potential of a monster tamer to stand out in the warring states period.
But even then, no one was able to become the second Allen.
He was special; a unique existence that even the world couldn’t help but fear him.
He possesses numerous monsters and their strength would even be stronger than Allen. No one knows how he was able to do it but all the monsters followed him and obeyed him like a family, like a friend…
But that was not all, his [ Beast Armament ] is only one of the skills he previously had that made him famous…
Are you going rise even further heights from there…?
“What do you say we finish this?” Allen’s voice echoed, pulling Mia out of her thoughts.
Allen was facing his back on them and Mia could see the tail swaying behind him.
It really looked strange, but why did Allen have that tail and horns?
“Will my fists pound you into pulp… or will your claws slice me to pieces!”
After saying this, a large amount of magical power flowed out from Allen’s body. This was the signal for the final moment.
The Finale coming near.
What powerful and densely concentrated magical power.
“This is already the last bit of my power, Qilin!” Roaring with an intensely imposing manner, Allen took a step forward.
“… I’m going to give it all and finish this!”
In the vast ground the two were standing on, cracks started to appear on the floor radiating from the spot where he stepped. The stone paved ground was virtually smashed.
Just from a single step!
This was a situation like a dream or a joke.
Of course, the paving stones beneath the Lightning Qilin also shattered. “Then, don’t die human king…”
The Lightning Qilin’s power also exploded and the air in the surrounding seems to have coagulated as it could already be seen with a naked eye. It swirled madly in the sky and streak of lightning flash one after another.
Allen’s body gives off heat and if one looks closely, his horns seemed to have become a bit longer, though only an inch difference.
His marks also started to advance from his cheek to almost on his eyes and nose.
“Let’s go at it till there’s nothing left!”
--- ---
The whole place became extremely intense and even the people watching the battle could only swallow their saliva in anxiety and couldn’t speak. Their whole body covered in cold sweat.
Some people were dumbfounded, some had a keen gaze, and some were quietly observing.
The multiple scattered sparks flew.
All the people have already forgotten that they were standing amidst the thunderstorm. They only stood there watching the intense battle while only feeling rather uncomfortable with all the electrical activity, not to mention, the noise of what sounded like the sky being torn in two.
They only stood there watching the intense battle while only feeling rather uncomfortable with all the electrical activity, not to mention, the noise of what sounded like the sky being torn in two.
Never before have they heard or witness such incredible storms.
The Lightning Qilin’s burst of power swept over Allen, causing him to almost squint his eyes.
What intensity…!
Allen clenched his fist.
It’s completely different from everything up till just now. So this is how it is… when a mythical beast gets serious…!!
And yet… this is bad. It’s the first time I’ve felt like this ever since coming to this world.
I’m scared… but even though I’m scared… in this fight…
In this sort of pinch… for some reason, I still…
A smile of excitement appeared on his face.
He wasn’t unscathed and several wounds had already appeared on his body. In fact, just like what he said, this is already the last power he could muster.
His face was grazed and blood was seeping into his eye, making his vision seem red at the corners.
His ribs having been struck by the Qilin on the chest a while ago still hadn’t completely recovered and had hairline fractures while the impact to the back of his head had left him a little confused and muddled.
It could even be said that until now, he was just getting by through sheer willpower, spirit and the mana nourishing his body and stopping his bleeding.
In addition, [ Beast Armament ] is already getting weaker and any second now, it would disappear, cutting his overall power. His [ Equip ] skill has still doesn’t reach Lv4 and this was only him forcing to do it using a large amount of power from his devil transformation.
You could say that this is an incomplete invocation.
And if this skill wore off, he would certainly lose and his power would greatly diminish.
But even still, Allen seemed to be very happy as though he found a new partner to play with as he got backup onto his feet.
It was obvious that he was in a very bad state but his heart was freer than before.
“… Oh! Crap! This is really interesting.”
A moment, this wouldn’t become a fight anymore. If his power disappeared he would be like a drenched chick! The beast before him had a much tougher defense than him originally and its power is above him by several realms.
How was he going to try overcoming an opponent that was several levels higher than him?
And thinking to that point was what Allen felt so excited that he couldn't keep it from his facial expressions.
Meanwhile, I’ll die in one hit. The odds are completely against me… but…
“That will… just make the fight more satisfying!”
To challenge the impossible……and using one's own flame of life to burn through the obstacles with sheer hard work and guts.
That was Allen’s truest nature even before in the previous life. He had done many things that others couldn’t even think of.
He had done many things that others couldn’t even think of.
He had venture many places that humans would never dare to step.
He had fought monsters other people would never try to fight.
If others asked why he would certainly answer: ‘I like thrills!’
In that brutal world where weak is getting eaten by the strong, that was Allen’s only entertainment!
That’s what Allen felt was the most respectable and interesting activities in life.
Just like what I’m feeling right now!
