Chapter 71

1003 Words
Xue lin quietly followed Asmodieus with his silent steps. He had taken an interest in him, one who could score fifteen twenty one points and more in that short amount of time was definitely not ordinary. He had the makings of a winner, one whose skills he could definitely use. Truthfully, he had no team he could depend on and only used that as a method of drawing Asmodieus to his side. Chasing the man who was worth a straight passage to stage two of this race was ultimately fruitless. That would be like trying to find a needle in a haystack. Besides, he wasn't the only one to see the words so surely others had gone after him and by now perhaps he was even dead by now. Perhaps, he would be lucky of slaying the man himself. But as for now, recruiting the man right in front of him was of the utmost importance. Suddenly, Asmodieus stopped and looked to his back. He just couldn't shake that feeling, and it was getting more intense by the minute. He was sure someone was following him. And as he guessed, immediately he looked back, someone appeared in his line of sights. A man of big burly stature, someone he could remember from memory. "Grindel Angry!" the man snorted as his muscles pulsed. The memory of his humiliating defeat was still fresh in his mind. Like a movie put on replay, it kept showing up in his head. He had tried excessive training to get rid of the thoughts but it was all for naught. He had even tried mindless killings but nothing helped his situation. There was only one thing he knew could quench the fire, and that was killing the man who had lit it in the first place. So he killed a man with a spot in the race, thereby getting Asmodieus sighed but was all too happy to take him up again. The timer was still up and running, in a few hours now it would end. Thus could be his chance to rank up more points. There was no one else present, which was odd, but still awesome. Grindel had an astronomical number fifty right above his head. His hands were stained blood read with some pieces of bloody flesh still misplaced on his body. He had literally gone on a killing spree to get here. Asmodieus decided to end it as quickly as he could lest the other come and he'd be pinned. A thick white liquid substance covered Asmodieus' arms and feet as it gradually solidified, becoming hard white rocks. After the transformation, a pair of red gloves also manifested around his hands. He had combined two of his strongest skills just to take this fool down. Grindel put a leg forward making the ground shake. Another foot forward and another quake. One after the other, Grindel a man of recognisable weight, ran towards Asmodieus. His hand ready to punch. Asmodieus, as an agile kick boxer, dodge the punch ad he returned with a punch of his own to grindel's abdomen. In response to the punch he delivered, his eyes saw red and his had felt dizzy. Feeling light headed with red covering his vision, Asmodieus somehow found himself laying on the floor. A smirk appeared on grindel's face. He had come prepared for Asmodieus. Not only did he get stronger, he also got faster. And his defense now?Extremely sturdy! Asmodieus got up, shaking off the attack. His nose had been broken in just one attack, while his forehead had busted open. Grindel grabbed Asmodieus by the hair before he could regain his senses fully. Going head to head,he delivered a great headbutt to the already busted head of Asmodieus. Drawing out more blood from his opponent. Still not letting go of Asmodieus, grindel raised him up lifting him off of the ground. Then he slammed him down head first to the strong white ground. Asmodieus vomited a mouthful of blood as he lost sense of all direction and meaning. He suggested to even stay conscious.He couldn't make meaning of what was happening. How could one he had deeated so easily months ago be this strong that he couldn't even land a single blow on him. Grindel raised Asmodieus' head again and slammed it into the ground for the second this. This time more brutal. Asmodieus was basically just a bag full of blood waiting for grindel to suck hm dry. Grindel let go of asmodieus' head, letting it fall weakly. He then raised a leg up and stepped on asmodieus' arm, crushing the bones in it. He didn't stop there, going over to the other arm and savagely crushing it underneath his giant legs. Asmodieus' scream was like music to his ears as he bacme intoxicated it. This was what he aimed to achieve with all his vigorous training these past few months. Mad it didn't disappoint. Asmodieus started breathing heavily as he started channelling the Ashurah legs skill. This was his final life saving skill, his last resort and his lifeline. Although he was taking a risk by using it, it was either that or his life so he gave no f***s! His thigh muscles and calves bulged as they gradually got bigger. His pants ripping slowly. Seeing the transformation, grindel eyes flashed. Spikes tore through the flesh on his right palm. He then dug it into asmodieus' back, making sure to hit a specific point. Immediately that action ws performed, Asmodieus' eyes widened in shock as he spat out a mouthful of blood and his transformation stopped. Xue lin watching from the shadows was startled. This man of considerable strength had been utterly defeated by this....ferocious monster. He contemplated on interfering but...at the risk of his life? Who would give his life for another man?! But then...if he could somehow salvage this situation, this man would have no reason to refuse his invitation and then he would have a sure pass to challenge two.
