The battle with a fallen viking

The black smoke that surrounds the creature's body gets shaped into an armor, an armor without an helmet. The creature slowly walks forward to Quinn but it was so slow that Quinn doesn't even move from where he is standing.

"I can smell my missing piece on your hands, will you give it to me?" The creature said

"It actually depends on you on whether or not you will get it." Quinn said

"HOW DARE YOU SPEAK TO ME LIKE THAT HUMAN!! I RANON SHALL PUNISH YOU!"

Quinn just stood there but he didn't realized that he already got hit by Ranon who moved as fast as mach 3. Quinn goes flying, destroying the marble columns that he hit. He slowly stood up and realized that one of his ribs might have been destroyed.

"I better fight seriously I guess." Quinn said to lighten up his mood

Quinn released tiny droplets of blood into the air make an almost invisible shield where anyone who tried to get pass the perimeter will have considerable amount of wounds.

Ranon's movements can no longer be perceived by the human eye as he just keeps running back and forth. He swung his sword but as his sword gets close to Quinn's neck, a large portion of his sword cracked.

"WHAT KIND OF WITCHCRAFT IS THIS?" Ranon asked himself

"Can you lower down voice? You make the echoes worse by shouting you know." Quinn said as holds his hurting chest.

'I'll die if this continues for more than 15 minutes.' Quinn thought

Now knowing that his blood can go head on with Ranon's speed, Quinn now charged forward lowering his aim. He cuts his the tip of his index finger using his nail on his thumb and shoot out a blood spike.

With Ranon's eyes everything moves so slowly so before the spike could even leave Quinn's body he has already evaded it.

"YOUR ABILITY IS POWERFUL BUT YOU DONT KNOW HOW TO PROPERLY MAKE USE OF IT MAKING IT A WASTE." Ranon said

"Shut up will you!"

Quinn went behind Ranon thinking that he is unaware of his whereabouts but as he closes in he just passed through an afterimage made by Ranon's speed.

"YOUR SPEED IS MAKING ME LAUGH"

"They should've just called you saw-con you know." Quinn said as he uses his blood to make him bounce off to Ranon's blindspot.

"Saw con?" Ranon said confused

"Sawcon mah balls!"

Quinn almost got closed due to Ranon not moving but Ranon found out Quinn's target spot making him look behind holding Quinn's right arm throwing him off the ground. Ranon laughs hysterically.

"TOO WEAK HUMAN, TOO WEAK!"

"This is why I hate old guys." Quinn said struggling to stand up due to the amount of injuries he has taken from him being thrown to the ground

He manage to get up a bit but his legs is giving up in just seconds.

"YOU CANT EVEN LAST 5 MINUTES!" Ranon said

"Just shut the fuck up! I know you're underestimating me but trust me I will kill you right here in this room." Quinn said

"BIG WORDS FROM SOMEONE WHO'S ABOUT TO DIE!"

Ranon charged forward to Quinn when he noticed that the red dots surrounding him vanished but as he gets closed he can feel multiple parts of his body being damaged. He tries to stop his body from going further forward but the velocity of his initial speed just keeps pushing him forward.

His body got multiple microscopic holes punched on it. He fell down the ground as he feels the penetrating pain of his internal organs releasing his life force which is the black smoke.

He stops himself from crying out the pain. He endures every density of the black smoke that comes out of him.

"YOU INSOLENT FOOL! I SHALL OBLITERATE YOU FOR WHAT YOU DID TO ME!"

"I guess you being a brute counts as a weakness." Quinn said as let out a huge sigh

'That crackling sound, its probably Alex using his flames.' Quinn thought as he heard a crackling noise

Quinn decided to took his chances and charged forward to where Ranon is kneeling down. The closer he gets the thinner the blood lines around him get. Ranon isn't focused him right now so this might be his chance to end their battle.

Quinn jumped and spins around midair release multiple razor like blood to Ranon's direction. Ranon may be unaware of what Quinn is doing but as he felt the flow of air in the room changes he rolled sideward avoiding the razor like bloods that Quinn threw.

"YOU DONT EVEN POSSESS THE PRIDE OF A KNIGHT!" Ranon said

'Why didn't I expect him to move.'

"I don't need to have such pride because I am aware that I am not a knight, I am just a selfish manipulative person who takes advantage of everyone around him." Quinn said as he triggers the small specks of blood that is on Ranon's face.

Ranon fell backwards as he screams and beg for the black smoke to come back to him. He tries to pull himself up together but it no good cause if he tries to use every last ounce of his strength he'd just end up losing all his life force.

"Tell me human what is it you desire?" Ranon said as he calmed down

"Thank god you finally learned how to speak properly. My desire is to get my family back to normal." Quinn said

"If that is what you desire then how can you call yourself selfish, Tell me what happened to your family and I may just be able to help." Ranon said

"I guess I wont lose anything if I tell you, My family are composed of archeologist and researchers. My mother found an apple that emits so much magical energy and so their research team tried to know more about it and in result that magic unleashed it wrath killing everyone in the lab and I... I ate it to get stronger."
