Sacrifice: Time of Mine

Chapter 280: Wind Walk

"What was that?" it was not Long Hair who spoke but instead, it was Raff.

'What happened!?' Jemer saw it at the corner of his eyes too.

They both saw that multiple Avions just appeared out of nowhere, striking the weaknesses of each person in the vicinity, making them fall unconscious.

Raff gulped hard and looked at Avion in a different light. 

'If only I knew, I wouldn't try to chase this guy!' he thought.

However, he calmed down, 'But he seemed to be a good guy. As long as he's on our side, I don't have to worry about anything. He just needs to do the same to that mysterious old man and we're finished!'

But despite his expectations, Avion didn't immediately attack Long Hair.

'If this old man is the supposed leader of the Dark-Bladed Shadows, my own attack can be my death.'

He had read a portion of this secret organization's skill. He knew its potential. If Long Hair is as strong as he thinks, then it should be safe to assume that Long Hair's skills exceed what Avion only thought possible.

"You're not going to try that trick on me?" Long Hair dared.

Avion looked around, ignoring Long Hair's provocation, 'Although this alley has nobody around, my Blast Throw should be fast enough to catch Long Hair's speed. However, that speed will not only take him out, but it will also go on and destroy other structures, possibly killing others.'

'Once that happens, I have to stop it on my own. That is already considering the best-case scenario where it would hit Long Hair. However, if it didn't, I have to catch it, endangering my life and possibly others, and then repeat!'

With that flash of thought, Avion could only choose one method.

'Defeat this guy using martial arts!'

Although this seemed to be the dumbest method, Avion wants to firsthand experience the peak of martial arts. Furthermore, he can use Overclock, Underclock, and Revert to his advantage.

Blast Throw will kill Long Hair and Avion didn't want that. He wanted to learn more about this secret organization. So the only choice is to overwhelm this martial master into submission!

Avion could feel the thrill from thinking of that!

Therefore, with his normal speed, he advanced towards Long Hair.

"Then, come!" Long Hair laughed, knowing that Avion was just testing the water first.

Raff held his breath when Avion and Long Hair collided.

Their arms seemed to become hundreds, exchanging at a very fast rate. Cracks could be heard every split second.

In that fierce and rapid exchanges, Long Hair was laughing while Avion was on the focus.

'Revert, Revert, Revert...' was constantly on his mind.

Long Hair would grapple him then dislocate his arm for how many times now. At first, Avion was keeping up and fixing it without another crack using their flow of movements.

"Very good!" Long Hair shouted as he tried to overwhelm Avion with pure techniques.

Avion would feel nausea, out of balance, and sometimes not himself as he was constantly being hit in the fatal spots. However,l he continuously Reverts his body.

Meanwhile, in exchange, Long Hair received a few hits, hits that should be fatal but using strange movements that looked like the old man was a buffering wriggly worm, the force was deflected or cushioned.

"You're definitely not a mortal, what Rank are you!?" Long Hair shouted before turning around and invading Avion's blind spot.

Avion was too much into concentration to the point that his head was burning. The moment he saw that Long Hair was out of sight, he turned around to see two sharp nails about to pierce his eyes.

He didn't even have the time to change his expression when he immediately ducked, letting it hit his forehead while he positioned his leg in front to hit the old man's leg.

Long Hair smirked and jumped when Avion spun to give another leg towards Long Hair's stomach, sending him up to the air.

Avion frowned, 'He blocked that at that last moment?' however, he shouldn't be surprised since he was already expecting that this old man would be a monster.

'This shitty kid, he thinks that he would have the advantage if I'm thrown at the air. A normal martial artist wouldn't have any movement midair since there's no foothold, But I didn't train my whole life, trying to fight Elementalist, to be a normal martial artist!'

Long Hair's face became distorted as he twisted his body, changing his trajectory.

'You think that you will hit me once I land. So you will give your all in that attack. Naive! The stronger your attack, the stronger it will come back to bite you!' before he began to fall, he had positioned and placed inertia in his body that would reflect any damage.

Even Marin wouldn't be able midair, much less that she could perform such a complicated technique that would be even hard to use on land!

'Take this, Thorned Wind!' Long Hair seemed to be just falling normally while spinning but every move was precise and essential.

As he spun, his eyes caught something, 'Hm?'

'Where is he?'

That was when he heard a crisp sound, followed by the sight of Avion's foot onto his face.

"W-what!?" Long Hari exclaimed before a foot burrowed in his face.

At the next moment, the speed of his fall doubled, making him hit the ground faster.

However, when they landed, Avion's body horizontally flew as saliva from his mouth splattered. He felt a destructive hit on his belly.

From where he came from, Long Hair was already standing up. It was as if he took no damage while Avion pushed the ground, black-flipping, and landing before he used Revert.

"You..." Long Hair then wiped the blood that came out his nose, "You don't have the raw strength of at least a Rank Dih Elementalist. You look too young to be mastering Wind Walk."

Restoring to his original state with no damages, Avion replied, "It's because I'm a mortal, and yes, I am mastering a technique you call Wind Walk."

Long Hair widely smiled before it twitched. A nerve popped out of his forehead.

"I thought I was talented enough to be the first to recreate a Wind Elementalist's Wind Walk without using any elemental energy. However, still, I mastered it after twenty years. Twenty long years! So let me show you, you little shit, the proper use of Wind Walk!"

With evident anger, Long Hair walked onto the air as if there was an invisible stair on it.

"You will witness the full power of the Dark-Bladed School. All my movements from now on will be on three-dimensional space..."
