Chapter 221: Nathan's True Power (Bonus)
Nidhogg came from above and released his breath, forcing the alien to retreat.
"Sorry for making you wait. Let me handle the rest." Nathan smiled.
Selena was worried about him, especially when she felt how hot his body was. Yet she knew Nathan wouldn't stop, especially with such a face.
That was why she said, "The alien is evolving at high speed, so you need to kill her as quickly as possible. She can shoot blade shards from her body or even use it as a weapon."
"Do you hear it, Fenrir?" Nathan smiled.
"Yeah." Fenrir nodded. "She's lucky that I can't bite her this time. No, she's unlucky because I'm going to slap her face so hard that she dies."
"Anubis. Heal them."
"Alright. Are you sure you'll be fine?"
"Don't worry. I'll end it right away!" Nathan nodded.
Bam!
A dragon's cry shook the cave as Nidhogg landed in front of them. "You don't have a lot of time to talk. She is coming."
Fenrir used his Gigantification and charged toward the alien, using his weight to pin her to the ground.
The alien struck his paw, but with the alien's current condition, there was no way she could knock him away.
Hence, she used the same trick on Fenrir, piercing his paw.
Unlike Yin Zhen, Fenrir simply smiled while saying, "Oh. It hurts!"
It was useless to hurt Fenrir. After all, he wanted to pin her on the ground. In addition, Anubis would be there to heal him.
Nidhogg had taken off as well, gathering his energy in his mouth.
Nathan also walked forward, even though his body was swaying left and right. Suddenly, a bandage wrapped around his face and body, which somehow reduced the pain he was enduring this whole time.
"!!!" Nathan looked down.
"Mummification." Anubis explained, "It will strengthen your body greatly for five minutes. But you will be tired after this. End it within five minutes."
Nathan smiled. "Thanks."
He charged forward. With the Mummification, he could control his body much smoother since he didn't have to endure as much pain.
"Fenrir!" Nathan shouted.
Fenrir immediately leaped away and shook his body violently to throw off the blade shards as Anubis healed him.
Meanwhile, Nidhogg released his breath to the alien. The latter rolled around, avoiding the fire breath.
But as she thought she was safe, the fire swirled around and bounced like a snake. It moved toward her at high speed.
The alien waved her blade, splitting the bouncing fire into two to avoid her.
Sadly for her, a wind tornado suddenly formed underneath her feet. The bouncing fire touched the tornado and turned it into a fire tornado, engulfing the alien.
Selena couldn't help but drop her jaw. Even Risa and Yin Zhen couldn't believe it.
"Wind?" Selena didn't see much about the first attack that blew her and the alien away, but it looked like Nathan was the one who controlled the wind. 'Is this his trump card? I have never seen something like this. Still, how can a first-year student be able to do this? No. With such an ability, does he even need me?'
Yin Zhen was summoned late, Risa isolated herself with a blood field, and she was taken down by the poison back then. Sasha was probably the only one who had seen it, but she might be too focused on her enemy.
This was the second contract that Nathan made. He used a bit more Ena to control the wind. With Nidhogg's fire that couldn't be extinguished easily even with powerful wind, it was a perfect element to control.
The alien slashed her blade, creating a gap from within. After that, she jumped out of the tornado with scorched marks on her body.
Fenrir pounced on her as if he had been waiting for her. Knowing what Fenrir wanted to do, she changed her stance, so that Fenrir didn't overpower her like before.
'Controlling the wind with my contract is so freaking easy. I only give it a command in my head and it will follow that command… This would have been an overpowered ability if I didn't have to sacrifice my Ena…' Nathan thought while waving his hand up.
All of a sudden, a swirling wind emerged from the ground and hit the alien from below, pushing its body slightly up.
With her feet not on the ground, she instantly lost all her power, allowing Fenrir to slam her body to the ground.
The alien gritted her teeth but was unable to let out a sound. It released all the blades to stab Fenrir's paw, but Fenrir acted as if he didn't feel any pain and just crushed her body.
The alien suddenly opened her mouth and fired a blade from her throat as if imitating Nidhogg.
Fenrir managed to tilt his head at the last second, but that slight gap allowed the alien to push Fenrir away.
'Is this what she said regarding her rapid evolution?' Fenrir looked surprised but soon calmed down. 'But…'
As if Fenrir had predicted it, the moment the alien stood up, she immediately waved her blade to the side as if trying to cut the torrential wind.
In addition, Nidhogg had also released his breath, which forced her to cut it as well.
Little did she know, the fire breath this time was condensed into a single fireball. The moment she cut it in two, the real attack was revealed.
Falling right behind the fireball were more than thirty Ena bullets. With Nathan's current Ena and Anubis' boost with also a lot of Ena, each bullet was quite thick.
The alien hurriedly summoned the blade to protect her entire body, but that was useless.
All those bullets rained down on her. Half of them were blocked by the blade shards, but the rest pierced through her body, including her head.
After that, Fenrir approached her from the side. The alien was still able to move, but the wind suddenly spun her body much wider than she originally expected, resulting in her missing Fenrir.
"!!!" The alien wanted to adjust, but it was too late. Fenrir had reached her. He slapped her head, slammed it to the ground, and crushed it.
Nathan smiled. "And the task is done."
Selena gasped. Nathan truly killed the alien easily. 'His control over wind is much higher than his control over Ena. It is as if he is able to govern wind himself. Has he been holding himself back this whole time? Is this his true power?'
Selena clenched her hands into fists. There were a lot of questions in her mind, but there was something more important. She rushed to Nathan, worried about his well-being.
"Nathan!"
Nathan turned around and gave a thumbs-up. "We did it together. Thanks to you and your familiars weakening the alien, Fenrir can tank all the damage while Nidhogg and I provide support. Are you already fine? Are you hurt anywhere?"
Selena shook her head furiously. She wanted to say something, but Nathan cut her off.
"That's good. Because I'm—" Nathan couldn't even finish his words before his mind went blank. All the adrenaline that had been keeping him awake was gone, causing him to pass out.
"N-N-Nathan!" Selena panicked and caught him in time. She knew Nathan must be overworking his body. Yet he still fought and defeated the alien. While there were a lot of mysteries left, Nathan trusted her enough to show his trump card. Feeling moved, Selena smiled. "Thank you for your hard work."
