BATTLE!!!

Seeing Salvatore patiently waiting for him Orso tightened up his stance as he prepared himself to fight. Then with a shout he bounded forward crossing the distance between them in a single hop while holding both of his fists drawn back, which exuded a faint reddish glow tight to his waist. At the moment he arrived in front of Salvatore both of his glowing fist shot forward like two powerful cannonballs.

"TAKE THIS!!! DUAL [Piercing Paw Strike]!!!"

At the moment Orso fists headed towards him, instead of dodging Salvatore also shot out both of his fists which had also started to glow.

"Very well! Dual [Heavy Punch]!"

As their fists collided a clanging sound like metal on metal colliding rang out before Salvatore's fist suddenly were surround by a massive bear paw shaped glowing aura causing their force to amplify enough to overwhelm Orso's red glowing fists causing him to slide back several feet.

Although he had been driven back Orso still wore a smirk as he looked at Salvatore.

"Although his fist was heavier he has yet to realize the true hidden fearsomeness of my [Piercing Paw Strike]!"

Examining his fists Salvatore observed them recalling the feeling he had felt when his fist had collided with Orso's he realized the secret truth behind his secret martial art.

"So, this secret martial art he's trained in [Bloody Fur Piercing Paw] possess a hidden viciousness of using vibrational force to transmit the energy of his punch into his opponents body. Based on that strike he seems to have transmitted roughly 30% of his punches force into my fists.

Unfortunately for him I've already long ago developed a special technique to counter such martial arts after fighting many other individuals who use a similar martial art before. Let's see how he feels after exchange a few moves while I'm using my passive technique Forza Annullare (Counter Force).

With a wide grin Orso charged once again towards Salvatore, both his paws shooting out like twin spears as he attacked once again with duel [Piercing Paw Strike], while Salvatore quickly adjusted his stance then roundhouse kicked towards Orso using [Cutting Kick] causing a white blade-like beam of energy to rapidly shoot out horizontally towards him.

Sensing the dangerous white blade of energy suddenly heading towards him, Orso displayed a strange bobbing move as his remaining whole ear flattened against his head which rapidly ducked down at an unbelievable speed, just barely dodging Salvatore's attack while Orso straightened up as he continued his charge towards Salvatore.

Observing Orso rapid movement as he softly landed, Salvatore realized it must be Orso's [High-Speed Movement] Skill which enabled him to mostly dodge his attack. Mostly being the key, for Orso had still not realized his attack had dealt him some cosmetic damage as it scraped past his backside, then continued on for another hundred feet before dissipating into nothingness.

Readying himself, Salvatore received Orso's fists in a seemingly casual manner, this time using his [Wolf Slash] Skill his hands were shrouded by large red wolf paws which had 9 inch long razor sharp red claws and came slicing up as he swiftly raised them.

As the vicious claws collided precisely with Orso's two massive fists the sound of metal scraping metal rang out as both of Orso's fist were forcefully redirect upwards, while each furry fist had four thin foot long cuts running down them.

Fortunately for Orso his thick fur managed to resist most of the blood red claws damage, allowing them to barely cut thru while his dense muscle's quickly tightened preventing any blood loss.

Ignoring the several cuts Orso's followed his paws heavenward by kicking off the ground as he attacked with his big feet using [Piercing Paw Kick] his two feet lashing out rapidly towards Salvatore's torso.

Displaying the unique properties of his passive Skill [Amorphous Body] Salvatore's stomach suddenly distorted, collapsing inward in a graceful manner which would fill a belly dancer with envy, while both his hands rapidly descended using another [Wolf Slash] forcing Orso to halt his attack and back flip several feet away.

Having tried out the majority of his new acquired attack Skills Salvatore decided to get a little serious and beckoning gestured towards Orso to attack him. Seeing the gestures Orso was fill with anger as he realized that despite his several attacks he had still not managed to make Salvatore move from where he was standing. Furthermore, Salvatore seemed to be unaffected by the hidden viciousness of his [Piercing Paw] Skills.

Now completely incensed, Orso smacked both his fist together before shouting angrily towards Salvatore.

"Alright you FURLESS BASTARD, it's time I got SERIOUS! Let me show you the real [Bloody Fur Piercing Paw]."

Unleashing a mighty roar his bloodlust and killing intent soared, causing the air to become thick with the stench of blood while the space around Orso obtained a slightly reddish tinge.

Focusing on his outstretched paws, Orso began to channel all of his surging killing intent and bloodlust into his two furry fist. Immediately they both turned blood red and began to exude an eerie aura which pulsated like a beating heart.
