"Yeah that's him! The guy in the bath house, that 'time' when I-" Drago cut himself short, anymore and he know he'll be dead.
"When you?" Zest asked, "what did you do?"
Drago remain silent, he can't say it or else...
"What's in the bath house!?" Ruhan who's been pissed for a very long time, asked.
Still, Drago didn't said anything but just shrugged his shoulders, playing stupid.
"He did something, but won't speak! Spill it you bastard! I'm annoyed and angry at you ever since we woke up that first rest!" Then a thought struck her mind, pushing the conversation. "That time? What did you do exactly!?" But she couldn't think of anything.
"Who knows..." Drago decided to speak but all to pissed her more, whistling.
"Wha- you bastard!"
Zest had put a stop on them and pointed at the two figure fighting from a distance.
"That must be the group A" Zest claimed.
"Ehh? But don't they look like it" Drago seemed a bit disappointed by the thought. "They must be really lucky they're still alive. The monsters were no joke!"
-
Leo and the other two had perceived the other group who's watching from a distance. They were talking to each other and soon the other guy had stopped the two and centered their attention on them.
"Hmm? Is he one of my kin?" Drale asked disgutedly. "He looks like it, but where's my horn? And the tail? Although he don't have a wing, he sure is one of my kind"
"He's looking our way" Drago exclaimed.
"We can saw that idiot" Zest smacked Drago in the head.
"Why did you hit me?" He asked what he did wrong.
"Because you're an idiot!" Ruhan abruptly answered his question.
"If I'm an idiot then you're a-" he didn't pursue this little talk and shut his mouth again.
"They're lively huh?" Leo just noticed her now. "Isn't that!? The girl from back then!"
'No, this is bad. I'm getting distracted, thinking about how beautiful her body is'
Any man wouldn't be able to resist her alluring magnificence . Especially when she's naked. Leo who had a clear, close look at her hadn't realized it until now, as he reminisced what took place inside the bath house. Ruhan, when she stood up Leo had a vague looked at her as he was dizzy that time. But, that time before she entered the hot spring, and she took the towel off of her. The hot spring's as clear as it was, her creamy-soft-white-skin, her curvaceous body, her waist line. Her pretty not so long legs yet not so short paired with her thick thighs. (Can I use them as my neck pillow?) Her rounded face, thick brows, her blue and green eyes, pointed-nose and her thin lips. Everything would suit her, every hair style, like right now. Her short-hair that didn't reach her shoulders. (I'm sorry, I'm pretty bad at this. I've always been bad at explaining hahaha. Next time, I'll leave it all to your imaginations guys)
With that much thought circulating through Leo's mind it couldn't avoid having a 'Nosebleed?' He wiped it properly and it didn't continued.
"Are we going to do this or not? Because I'm getting bored, I might fight those other three. They seemed more stronger than what I have here"
"Oh! I forgot about you" still couldn't get off of it on his mind. "Sorry about that. Let me just clarify you that me alone is enough to kill you"
"Really? Then, I'd be glad if you could!"
They began moving and exchanges blows from blows. Drale's attack were fierce and powerful and for Leo, since he's faster than Drale he's trying to avoid as much damage as possible whilst attacking using the dagger and his fist at the same time.
And it's just as Leo thought, it was hard piercing through its tough skin because of his scales and the impacts of his punches were almost being neutralize.
[Enemy's using skill 'Rigid Dermis']
'So half-assed attacks won't work huh? How about this!?'
Leo changed his attack, using his dagger stabbing Drale's scales instead of slashing the same spot and punching the same spot.
"Did you really think that you can pierced through my hard scales!?"
Neither would stop hitting the other nor letting their selves get hit.
"Is that so!?" They both jerked their hands and with a contemporaneous attack, Leo aiming the same spot and Drale at Leo's face.
That made heavy winds and shock waves and that also causes the ground they're standing to crumble. But neither of the two did budged from where they stood.
"He's not bad.., that guy" Drago remembered and will always remember Leo because of what he had done. 'Oh no..! Just thinking about it again's making me wants to laugh it all'
"Yeah..." Zest said in nonchalance.
Drale heard something from him cracked and as he looked at his body, Leo's dagger was lightly piercing his skin and his scales broken from the other side because of his punches.
Leo did took damage and little amount of blood was spit out of his mouth.
Leo tried to sting his wound with the dagger but Drale socked his hands tried to pierce Leo with his fingernails. (Why didn't he use that earlier when he was aiming at Leo's face? Tsk, tsk)
"I thought you're smart but, you're just like any other monster"
"Yeah... I was a fool for not noticing your plan. With that, I'll get serious!"
"Hmm? Aren't you've always been from the beginning?"
"Ryaaa!"
'He sure became weird when serious yelling 'Ryaaa' what is he?'
[Enemy's using skill 'Intimidation']
'So that's what the 'Ryaaa' for huh? Trying to be intimidating... won't do'
[Enemy's using skill 'Dragon's Eyes']
'So you decided to use that again. My current speed won't do the trick. I need to increase it, but I can't do it in one go. I'll do it little by little'
Drale won't move so Leo has to do the work of attacking him. First attempt was a failure, he was clearly predicted and got his clothes were scraped to his skin.
"Brother!" Tom cried out in concern.
Evan tapped his shoulder, "don't worry, he's not gonna lose. Not with that look on his face"
Leo was smiling, his deep constitutional desire of fighting all out, for both lives' on the line. His suppressed desire was release and has now manifested.
"That's a pretty face you have! That's it! Give me more of that!"
Drale, predicting the future sure is a hard thing to beat. But it is as Leo said earlier, increasing his speed little by little as he analyze his opponent's ability.
'At first, I thought it was weird of him to closed his eyes when his skill says it all. But after failing to land an attack on him for about ten times! I've now get it why he closed his eyes. His skill isn't predicting the future but using the vision of the beings in his surroundings!'
"To think that your skill's trick was that simple..." Leo clicking his tongue.
"Oh..? So you've figured it out? But what can you do about it!? I have your eyes! Their eyes! Gahahaha!"
'He went mad...'
"Let me show you" he first looked at Tom and Evan.
"Tom, Evan, I want you to look only at me don't shift your gaze at him or else I'll lose and..." they don't understand what Leo meant by that but since he said the latter, they nodded their heads.
'As for those three...'
"Will you please be patient? For I am preparing my plan" Leo asked Drale and Drale seemed to have accepted it.
Leo walked towards the other three but Zest stopped him. "I'll explain them what you're going to do"
"Sorry for the trouble" lightly bowing his head.
Zest then began explaining what Leo's trying to do. And as soon as they learn what it is all about, they were surprised and confused.
"Will it work?" Ruhan asked intriguingly .
"That, I don't know. It's all up to what he can, and will do"
"He better be doing it good or else I'll steal his prey" Drago grinned.
"Shall I get started?"
"Anytime"
'Okay, time to speed up to its full extent!'
Leo began moving all around, his speed was no joke. It was still increasing and increasing to the point that it was creating afterimages.
"I can still see what you'll do"
"Really? How about this?" Leo had closed both his eyes. This became unexpected for Drale who was using Leo's vision.
He immediately switched his vision to the bystanders, first was Tom but Tom can't keep up Leo's speed Drale change to Evan and Evan closed his eyes, that made Drale to switch to the other three who closed their eyes, too.
"You're wide open!" He can't used their visions, that made him used his own eyes. He quickly opened his eyes to attack Leo and impale him.
To his surprise it was just an afterimage. He had no choice but to try again and used Leo's vision. Leo's eyes were wide open, Drale saw himself, his eyes closed whilst Leo clenching his fist.
Drale was late, he can't dodge this, he opened his eyes and felt the devastating punch from his face not just the punch it was also the scales at his face that was crushed.
The punch was powerful enough for the ground to shake as Drale bounced up and then down.
