Sacrifice: Time of Mine

Chapter 282: Serious Fight

'Our organization can't lose Marin!' Long Hair was at his wit's end.

'She is an important asset in the Dark-Bladed Shadows. Without her, the majority of our people will leave the organization!'

...

Marin's beauty alone was able to attract hormonal young men to join. They worship her as they went through the hardship of training. As a result, we name her as the Goddess!

I, Long Hair, one of the most enduring martial artists in the organization was chosen to the one who will take charge of Marin.

Due to my great endurance, I am able to trick her into thinking that I'm only taking easy on her. But at the end of our every match, I feel like I'm about to die!

However, I still need to act as if I didn't sustain any damage and that I held back.

This is all worth it. Marin herself is a phenomenal mortal who can do what she sees at first sight. If I show her my every move, I wouldn't be able to act my way out once she beat my ass.

The problem was her inflated ego that rivals the size of Flasse. Maybe it could even the sun and moon due to its monstrosity!

She truly regarded herself as a Goddess and she will only listen to those who are stronger than her. Good thing that we already caught on to this or else, we would've given her all the techniques that she needed.

If that happens, she would easily take over the organization. Although that's our plan for her future, it's still too early. We need to tailor her to hate Elementalist so that she will act as what the organization aims to do and to be!

Not only her talent but due to her, people have been entering our organization. It was getting bigger at a terrifying rate compared to before we encountered her.

That is why she would be sent out to recruit males and even females. Almost all of the women in our organization swing on that side due to her.

I didn't think that this new target for recruitment, Avion Teller is a mysterious guy who could go against Marin.

Although I didn't know what happened, it is obvious that the two fought and Marin lost.

I thought I can defeat him but how is his body able to instantly recover!? There's definitely something with him. However, for sure, Avion Teller is not an Elementalist since he doesn't have the strength.

Currently, this guy is about to destroy my image. Just at this moment, I have to exceed my limit!

...

With determination, Long Hair unnoticeably pinched something in the pocket of his clothing.

There was a small bead that lightly popped. Energy came out of it, invisibly enveloping Long Hair.

'Thank God, I didn't forget to bring an All-round Powering Si-i with me! I should have thirty minutes for my overall power to increase up to seven hundred percent! I need to finish this in twenty minutes then use the remaining time to act cool and indifferent to keep my image!'

Blood rushed within the old man's body. He felt vigor that he only experienced back when he was young and brave.

Avion sensed danger and inwardly changed his plans.

'I don't think I will be able to keep up from now on. I should use most of my time abilities.' he decided.

Two pairs of eyes locked onto each other. As if there was an unseen signal, both rushed to each other!

Avion used Overclock to himself, making him twice as fast. His fist was the first to strike with a hiss. The old man agilely evaded and used Avion's extended arm to pushed himself up with a twist.

Avion's eyes quickly reacted as his eyes followed Long Hair's movement. Retracting his fist, he blocked a sweeping kick from above.

+2 Underclock 

Pow*

"Ugh!" Avion felt the weight from the kick as his skin and muscle 

+2 Overclock and Revert

However, Long Hair didn't hold back continued after that kick, His twisting body shifted with that kick, making his own hand move into Avion's blind spot while he was still mid-air.

+1 Overclock 

Avion's eyes rolled as fast as he could to cover his blind spot. With his arms still up, he bent his waist to dodge that incoming piercing nails.

"Hmph!"

His second attack failed but instead of landing on the ground, he bounced off it, pouncing onto Avion's unguarded knee.

Avion's eyes widened.

+1 Overclock!

Swish*

His bent so that it can counter Long Hair's pounce.

Crack*

Revert

+2 Underclock

Avion immediately repositioned himself after taking the recoil as a chance to make tumbling and retreat.

Meanwhile, Long Hair was thrown away from that collision.

'If I Overclock myself, I will become faster and versatile while my movement will become explosive. However, at the same time, I will become more fragile and the control over my body will become as twice as harder!'

Avion analyzed and thought that he did well stabilizing himself with each movement.

Long Hair had his eyes squinted as he becomes more serious. When he turned into a silent shadow, Avion almost didn't sense his location.

Time stopped

Thud* 

Avion's fist solidly connected onto Long Hair's face. Or, at least, it should've. However, he only felt like he had hit something soft.

"Caught you!"

Long Hair's body was bent towards the same direction was Avion's punch while his two hands were wrapped around Avion.

At that moment, Avion realized he made a mistake.

"I knew you would eventually use that instantaneous move. You think I put my guard down even once?" the old man couldn't contain his excitement as he held Avion's arm and increased the strength of his grasp.

"Ugh-!" Avion sharply groaned as his forearm cracked.

"Now let me see how you can instantly recover from this!?" Long Hair's muscles bulged.

"HA!" he twisted Avion's arm and pulled, separating the two parts. Blood bursted from his broken and dismembered arm.
