Chapter 201 - Victory?
A powerful gust of wind appeared the moment Logan slashed with his sword, even making the temperature around him rise drastically to the point where the grass turned to ash!
"Woah!"
??
"SCREECH!"
Both Khal and Rubie were forced to halt their assaults and retreat several meters in an instant, leaving Logan alone in the middle of the sea of fire!
"Haha, I told you all! Even on the Sixth Stage, he has terrifying powers! Whenever I see his flames I can't help but feel a cold shiver run down my spine!" Raffin exclaimed out loud, his eyes holding rivalry but at the same time admiration whenever he looked at Logan in the distance.
The others around him were the same too, as they also thought Logan's power was top-notch no matter which Stage he was currently on.
Though, even after seeing Logan's noticeable advantage against Khal, Jas still remained calm as if he didn't think what Logan did was anything incredible to talk about.
"So? Will you continue to stand there like a fool or will you attack me already?" Logan asked from Khal, seemingly bored for no reason.
'...'
Khal was speechless upon hearing Logan's arrogant and kind of provoking statement, feeling almost as if he was looking down on him.
However, even though he wanted to prove Logan wrong right then and there, he knew he has to be calm and act patiently. If he decided to behave rashly, he would only play onto Logan's hand and even lose with a high likelihood.
That is why just simply smiled and without saying a thing waved his Devil Fangs.
Whoosh!
"What are those? Wind blades?" Scarlett couldn't help but exclaim out with confusion the moment she saw the floating wind blades around Logan.
Even the rest seemed confused, but soon that feeling turned into ridicule as they assumed Khal wanted to restrict Logan's movement with those.
'...'
Logan stared at the floating wind blades around him with an indifferent gaze, but soon his eyes widened, and moved his feet.
Swish!
BAM!
Like several bombs detonated at the same time, every wind blade exploded with terrifying power, slicing the ground below into several pieces, while also forming deep pits here and there.
"W-What a powerful ability..." muttered Scarlett a bit dumbfoundedly, while the rest around her looked the same as her.
"Exploding wind blades? What kind of Secret Art is that?" Conner seemingly curious about the origin of the Art Khal has used asked out loud, but as no one really knew the answer it appeared he will remain oblivious until he does not ask Khal personally.
Meanwhile, among the dust cloud and craters that Khal's previous has attack formed, Logan's figure was slowly emerging, his body still intact even after being in the center of such a crazy and hazardous onslaught!
'Where is he?' however, Logan couldn't care less about his situation or feel proud that he survived, as the moment the dust dissipated, Khal was nowhere to be seen.
"Looking for me?" suddenly a voice resounded from behind, making Logan spin around and swing his weapon, but soon realized the one that was behind him was not Khal but Rubie!
"Bad choice," Logan said nonchalantly and with lightning speed changed his sword's trajectory, defending against Rubie's claws just in time.
CLANG!
The sound of steel against steel reverberated throughout the air, but what stunned Logan was that even though he defended in time, Rubie's attack was abruptly strong, pushing his weapon together with his arm to the side with ease!
'What physical strength... Even though she is still on the Fifth Stage, her evolution not only affected her Cultivation Base, speed, and appearance but even her basic strength too!' Logan seemed startled as he knew Ruby Beasts weren't dangerous except their speed.
But it looked like after Rubie's evolution, not only did she became stronger in her basic traits, but also gained plus characteristics such as this enhanced physical strength that no Rubie Beast had.
However, soon his shock suddenly deepened another level as the moment Rubie finished her attack, Khal's figure emerged right before him, his weapon targeting his throat with obvious killing intent.
'Not bad!' Logan suddenly smiled upon realizing Khal's smart schemes, but to his surprise the moment he wanted to move, Khal vanished once again, and like a phantom appeared right behind him!
Logan spun around the very moment he noticed Khal's vanishing from his sight, as he knew way too well what kind of trick Khal was using; The Dance of The Celestial Serpent, Azure Snake Dance!
Swish!
With a cold flicker, Logan slashed horizontally with his burning sword, melting the ground below it into a boiling mess, but it seemed Khal had long ago predicted this move and just simply waved his hand.
"Stellar Domain, Open!"
BAM!
Right as his voice fell, the surroundings around them changed, replacing the emerald green grass and the azure blue sky into an endless and vast cosmos, filled with an infinite amount of stars, planets, and galaxies everywhere in the distance!
"What beautiful sight..." was the only all the experts could think of once they saw the Stellar Domain, even though they had seen it before during the Thousand Life Tournament.
However, that was the only thing they could say or think about as suddenly the cosmos around them began to spin while and immense pain pierced their head, almost as if hundreds of swords got stabbed into their brain from every angle!
Even Logan was affected, but as he knew what to expect the moment he noticed the changes, he was prepared long ago. However, even like this, he couldn't help but feel severe pain and discomfort, almost as if someone was twisting his muscles from the inside, resulting in his body becoming quite sluggish while his hand even started to tremble slightly as he tried to control himself!
And this is exactly what Khal needed!
Once this tiny opening has appeared, he didn't hesitate to avoid Logan's attack with his third form, and once next to him, he swung his hand, his Bloodshed Touch already active!
