The Return of the God Level Assassin [BL]

Chapter 689 - SEVENTH MATCH (II)



"SORRY, I love to chat more with you but I'm not really into prolong fights.  So… I have to defeat you now."

Liang Sen heard Winged Tassel's voice from behind.  Then, before he could react, he suddenly felt himself being dragged upwards by the neck at a very high speed.  He could feel the resistance from the air.  He even felt a bit breathless having his neck gripped like this. 

But one thing's for sure – his opponent seemed to have the ability to fly.  As he was being dragged, he could hear the flapping sound of something against the wind.  If he had to make a guest, it would most likely be a pair of wings.

He wasn't sure if it was the other's skill or just a perk of whatever race his avatar was.  All he knew right now was that he needed to get out of this chokehold as soon as possible.  Or else, he could already picture his bad end.

Mana gathered around him, his muscles started to bulge and black fur started to appear on his skin.  Even his mouth was starting to turn into a snout.  He really disliked this transformation.  But this was the most effective solution to his problem right now. 

Because of his body getting bigger, the hold on his neck finally started to loosen.  But he was already pretty high up in the air.  Going down like this would definitely be a pain.  But it's better to fall down at this height now than to wait until this guy dragged him to the stratosphere or something. 

Before his transformation was completed, he concentrated his Mana on one of his fists and then punch at the back to where Winged Tassel was holding his neck.  He didn't hold back with his strength.  So, it's no wonder that he heard a crunch, as if breaking bones.

That was immediately followed by the feeling of falling. 

Without the hand grabbing his neck, he was finally free from the other's hold.  But that also meant that he was now falling at a very fast speed.  But Liang Sen wasn't worried.  Because his transformation was finally completed and he turned into a big black panther.

It was not the same as what that lion beastkin did earlier where he only let his upper body transformed into that of a lion.  What Liang Sen did was a complete transformation.

With his lithe body, he was able to easily land on the ground.  Mostly due to the fact that he's a panther and because this was a virtual world, of course, a panther's inherent trait would all be magnified.  Heck, even his size was even bigger than a real-life panther.  Actually, all beastkins in their beast form were bigger than their real-life counterparts.

As he landed, he finally was able to raise his head and look at Winged Tassel.  And his pupils shook a bit.  The other indeed had wings behind his back.  They were pitch black, almost merging with the night sky.  His wings were not the same as an angel. It's probably more appropriate to compare it a crow. 

Well, now, it's definitely confirmed that this guy was not a human.  Considering the other's costume, a particular demon from the Japanese folklore came to mind.  What were they called again?  Ah, a Tengu.

If the other stayed afloat in the air like that, how the hell would he attack him?  Having only skills for melee attacks, Winged Tassel was definitely not a good match for him.  But that didn't mean that he would just give up.  There's still tons of ways to attack someone in mid-air.

But first, he had to transform back to his humanoid form. 

He was surrounded by smoke, indicating that he was transforming back to his humanoid form.  But just after he returned to his humanoid form, a storm of black feathers rained down on him. 

"Shit," he cursed before punching the ground below and taking a piece of it to use as a shield. 

He felt the black feathers digging into the slab of concrete he used as shield.  He was even forced back, showing just how strong those feathers were.  On his peripheral vision, he could see some of the feathers buried deep on the floor upon contact.  Again, showing that the force behind them was not only strong, they were also as sharp as a blade.

Liang Sen knew that if he continued to be on the receiving end of this attack, it would be long before he lost.  So, he put his fist on the concrete/shield, making sure that it would point on the same direction where he last saw Winged Tassel.

He was pretty sure that the other was still on that same direction where he last saw him floating.  It's because the interval between his transformation and Winged Tassel's feathered attack was probably only a second.  There's no way the other could have flown in a different direction.

Once done, Mana gathered around his fist.  Then, he punched the concrete.  As his fist went through the concrete, the fist of it that he punched through flew upward to the direction where his opponent was, its speed as fast as a bullet. 

Liang Sen heard a grunt amidst all the noise and then he saw through the hole on his concrete/shield that Winged Tassel was now falling on the ground.  He grinned.  It seemed that his attack reached the other.

He no longer wasted any time and used one of his skills – [Rage].  In the next 15 seconds, his attack power would double.  He now also wanted to finish this fight as soon as possible.

He rushed to where the other was about to fall, planning to meet Winged Tassel with an attack that would certainly tip the fight to his favor.  When he was only a few distance away, he jumped up, planning to meet the other mid-way.

But to his surprise, Winged Tassel's falling posture suddenly changed.  He turned to his direction, as if also planning to meet him.  His posture seemed like someone who was about to take out the sword that was on his side from its sheath. 

Then, the two of them met on mid-air.

They passed one another.

Winged Tassel landed effortlessly on the ground..  While Liang Sen started to turn into light particles.
