Chapter 870 A Decade In The Making
Often Rudra had thought about creating his own style of fighting. A series of moves that would seem harmless at first but over time cause the enemy to make a mistake that could be exploited by Rudra to win every battle.
It was much more difficult than one thought as there were a lot of variables in controlling your enemy's actions to be exactly what you want them to be without the enemy being any wiser.
However Rudra's ambitions seemed to get wings when he learnt the ultimate combat series move created by Hades himself, the ' Dance Of Death '.
It was everything Rudra aspired to create as the flowing and ever- moving style of fighting was intricately designed for slowly pushing the enemy towards making a series of moves they did not wish to do but were forced to do anyways.
While Rudra had the confidence to dominate anyone at the same tier under the dance of death attack in a one vs one fight. The same did not work while fighting an enemy like Lucifer because of the strength gap.
The dance of death was designed so intricately that if the fourth attacking slash was designed to get the opponent to take one step backwards then if it failed to achieve that goal then the subsequent moves 5-6-7 would be rendered useless and the ultimate chain would crumple.
It was a near impossible move to perfect, however it was a near impossible move to be evaded when executed by someone who had perfected it.
Usually, Rudra did not have the strength to go head to head with a god. His stats were too low and Lucifer usually man-handled him in every attack that he made.
His sword strike was not strong enough to force the devil to take a step back or make the devil rotate his hips as per what Rudra wanted him to do, to dodge Rudra's attack because if he did not have the strength to counter it at an odd angle lest his sword be knocked out of his hands.
Which was why Rudra refrained from using the dance of death on the devil.
If this was the old him, before his training with the god's there was no way that he could match upto the devil even when he used the dance of death as simply put, his fighting style was not refined enough to face a being of that level and force him to dance on his fingertips.
However after being strengthened incredibly from all the elixirs and level ups courtsey of Ozriel and also from all the training with Raphael, Sariel and Micheal. Rudra now had an inkling as to what he needed to do.
His fight with Lucifer had started over 24 hours ago now and in the one full day that the two were bashing heads Rudra had strategically tested the devil's response to various attacks at various angles and studied in length as to how his loss of mobility due to handling the prison of darkness affected him.
Although it seemed as if Rudra was only defending for his life all along , that was actually not the case as he was always scheming , always plotting and always watching Lucifer's actions.
He had a firm grasp of Lucifer's movements , his actions and his range of attack now which was why Rudra had confidence that after activating his time dilation , increasing his strength and agility by X10 , he would finally have a chance to gain the upper hand against the devil in battle albeit only for 3 short minutes.
Rudra had one shot to free the god's and it was in these three minutes, as if he failed to achieve his goals now , it would mean that he would be left without the means to gain an upper hand against Lucifer for the full duration of the time dilation skills cooldown and he did not expect to come out of a battle for that long against Lucifer alive.
In the one minute that his guildmates had bought him Rudra contemplated as to if he wanted to take that gamble and fight against Lucifer now , or did he need more information on the devil before taking his chances.
However the longer he thought about it the more he grit his teeth because as much as he hated to admit it, it wasn't just him who was evolving the longer their fight lasted , it was Lucifer who was evolving as well.
The devil was not like an above average player , but someone who was undoubtedly more talented and experienced in battle than Rudra himself which made his adaptibility and sheer indefeatability formidable.
The longer this fight lasted, the lesser the chances that Rudra would have to force Lucifer on the backfoot as the devil would read his fighting style fully and learn how to counter it perfectly.
For Rudra this meant that it was now or never.
Feeling his adrenaline pump, Rudra realised that after a long time he was looking forward to actually fighting a battle where he did not know how the outcome was going to be.
There was a fair chance of success for him , but there was an equal risk as well and it was all very exciting.
Rudra was a warrior at heart and a true one at that. Although his defensive style of fighting was undoubtedly much more superior to his aggressive one , it was his reckless fighting that he truly enjoyed while on the battlefield as there was something about putting it all on the line that oddly gave his warrior heart joy and satisfaction.
If he expressed his feelings to anyone , they would unquestionably call him a madman for feeling excited to fight against Lucifer. But in a way he was a madman.
A madman looking to end the number one villain character in Omega.
A madman looking to complete the main storyline of the game and take his light faction all the way to a victory.
A madman out for the blood of the god's!
Clutching grim reaper and Excalibur, Rudra thought ' This is it my trusted aide's , today you bathe in the devil's blood '.
