CHAPTER THIRTEEN: THE SPAR (FORMING A MUTATED SWORD HEART)

Mark felt a tyrannical aura spill out from her immediately the nine tails made from fire condensed from her body.

#Opponent attribute just doubled He was informed

"Interesting," He said while smiling mischievously as he summoned his sword and gauntlet immediately. His strength and agility increased by fifty percent.

"Round two will be nice" He answered.

"Don't die before I reach you" Amelia said.

"Whoosh," She disappeared from her original position. Mark smiled while looking at her. She focused her gaze on him but suddenly she felt chilling coldness numbing her bones and her speed was slowing down, she looked down and saw ice on the floor. Frost was already covering her body from the leg and this was causing a numbing sensation. If the ice covered her completely then she would be a living target.

"Whoosh," Mark appeared in front of her and raised his sword that he already coated with lightning

"Do you think I'm that easy to defeat" She smirked and suddenly his body felt a tingling sensation. That's a sensation he feels only in a situation of extreme danger. He retreated immediately but it was a little bit late, She already hurled a punch at him and a blazing blue fire covered her body.

"Bang" The punch hit him. Even though he already moved back enough to minimize the impact of the punch a little bit, he was still sent reeling back. He felt his world spin as he crashed into the barrier and landed on the floor. He could not help but spit out a mouthful of blood. All his organs have been displaced. Her strength was almost three times higher than his. She rushed towards him, she knew he had already healed.

He knelt on the floor and stabbed his sword into the ground, Suddenly the floor cracked and turned into dust, and while the dust turned into a spike that covered her path, she stopped and tried to move to the side. He already knew the direction she was going to move. He slapped the floor with his palm and lightning struck him while it was transferred from his body into the ground and down to her path. She was still changing her direction so she could not do much, The lightning entered her body from the ground and catapulted her to the back. She crashed into the floor while the fire on her body flickered. Everything only happened within some seconds

"What a good calculative ability" Martins exclaimed while Charlotte was still having a a hard time believing her eyes. She could not believe that Mark would force Amelia into such a perilous situation even though she had transformed. They were even more surprised about his ability to control the elements. This was a person who could not even fight Amelia back a few days ago.

"What a strong adaptive ability, calculative ability, and battle awareness" Butterfly goddess could not help but comment on what she just witnessed.

"He is born for battle," She said.

He stood up, he could finally regain his bearing. Even though he healed very fast, the punch affected him and even his ability to think. The remaining action he took after the punch was a reflex reaction. He just followed his instinct. Amelia slowly stood up from the ground.

"Never thought you could push me into this position," She said while coughing. The lightning knocked the wit out of her.

"I won't underestimate you again. Time to use my full strength" She said and rolled up her sleeve.

"No" Mark who already knew what she wanted to do shouted and tried to run into the barrier but was stopped by Charlotte.

"Just leave them," She said.

"You know how dangerous our power is, she might kill him, I'm," He said worriedly.

"He has a very tyrannical destructive ability coupled with his healing ability. Do you think that he can be killed easily" She asked.

Mark saw five bangles on Amelia's sleeve.

"Pa" The five bangles were removed from her arm.

"Meet me outside," She said as she stamped the floor and

"Bang" She crashed into the barrier but the barrier broke because of her terrifying strength. Scales covered his body, his eyes turned pitch black while chaotic energy covered him and wings popped out from his back. He followed her immediately. He got outside the ship that was underwater and saw her floating in the water. But what he saw did not look like her, it was like a goddess that descended from heaven. She was far more beautiful with a taller body and balanced proportions. The fire around her already turned white and her hair was now white. White claws already grew from her fingers and her hair was already white.

"Fox emperor bloodline" the Butterfly goddess shouted.

"How" Her face was confused.

"Whoosh" She disappeared 

"Be careful not to die" She said with a cold voice. Raising his sword, chaotic energy blazed out from his body and covered him.

"You can only kill me if you can touch me" He answered. A white barrier covered them but they did not notice, only Martins and Charlotte saw the barrier.

"wh…." They wanted to talk when the butterfly goddess appeared beside them.

"Do you also have the same bloodline as her?" She asked the two. They nodded their head in affirmation.

Inside the barrier, Mark and Amelia were already looking at themselves. A bloodthirsty aura was already radiating from his body but he tried to control it.

"Whoosh" he flapped his wing once and appeared in front of her. Invisible sword intent radiated out from him but it could not do anything to her so he slashed his sword that was already coated with chaotic energy.

"Whoosh," She disappeared from where she was.

"What extreme speed" He thought. Before he could do anything, he felt a slam on his back.

"Puah" He spat out a mouthful of blood while he was thrown forward. He forcefully turned his body and crossed his sword in front of him,

"Clang" A metallic sound was heard. He was catapulted back again, his arms felt numb while his scale was torn open, and fresh blood dripped out from his hand but it quickly healed. It took him some time before he could balance himself.

"How come" He thought as he raised his head in alarm and looked at the lady in front of him. Her hands were already tainted with chaotic energy but the fire prevented them from quickly spreading. She continued to look at him.

"As expected, the white fox emperor fire can fight the chaotic energy to an extent but her body won't be able to take the chaotic energy if it is too much because it is still too tyrannical and his chaotic energy is weak" the Butterfly goddess analyzed.

"Hmm," He sighed as he dropped his right hand to the side.

"Are you surrendering?" She asked when saw that he was not in a defensive position again.

"No thanks to you I just gained something" He answered.

"Let me ask you a question, What is the difference between slaughtering and killing" He asked.

 "Hmm," She wrinkled her brows in confusion.

"The two are the same" She answered.

"That's what I thought until now. You've killed, and killing aura is on you, I smelt it but what is the difference between my aura and your aura" He asked as he released the aura that he was trying to control. A potent bloodthirsty that made everyone watching shudder was radiated from him. Even the butterfly goddess was a little bit affected by the aura.

"What potent bloodthirstiness," She thought.

"Yours is more potent than mine" She answered.

"No killing is giving people death but the real slaughter means vanquishing people out from existence that even death will not be able to retrieve them. With a single stroke killing a person's body and vanquishing his soul" The more he talked the more his presence melded into the bloodthirsty aura around him and by the time he finished talking his presence had fully melded into the bloodthirsty aura surrounding him.

The sword intent fully receded his body while they went towards his inner world and melded together taking the shape of a sword. The sword was soon fully formed and chaotic energy rushed towards the sword that was about to solidify and merge with it.

"He is forming a sword heart and the chaotic energy is reinforcing it. Is he going to form a mutated sword heart?" The Butterfly goddess looked on. She already witnessed many surprising things from Mark's tyrannical ability to three people with a bloodline that was very rare in the universe. She already told her mind to believe that nothing around them is normal.

 The black sword fully condensed and solidified. Immediately it solidified, fearsome black sword intent rushed out from his body and surrounded him. Amelia's body shuddered when she saw it. Without him knowing the chaotic energy from the middle of the sword went towards his soul and entered the eyeball of his soul while engraving itself into it. His black eyeballs which were like a black hole before now had sword intent engraved in them

"Mutated sword intent," the Butterfly goddess said.

"Finally understood it, This what makes me stuck all these days," He said in understanding before facing her.

"Be careful" He said as he raised the sword was already full of chaotic energy to the extent that even the space was warping. Sword intent around his body covered the sword, the sword intent was now powerful to the extent that each of them was now giving the impression of cutting through space. They were now visible and moving like little snakes around the sword. He directed them into the sword. They entered the sword

"Dangerous" Mark and Charlotte's faces changed while looking at the skill, they were not even sure that they could escape unscathed without exerting most of their strength. Mark's face paled, the more the sword intent entered sword the more his face paled, was already reaching its limit.

"Poof" His scales were blown off but they quickly healed.

"Final stake" He shouted as he arrived in front of Amelia within a split second and slashed the sword out. A long black snake came out from the sword while it struck out. Amelia tried to move back but it was late.

"No" Martins and Charlotte shouted. She was blown off while the sword fell off his hand. His face was already pale to the extreme while his right hand was already useless. The chaotic energy was already trying to mend it again. Even with his healing capability, his body was not able to take it but his pale face was wide now as he looked into the distance Amelia was blown into.
