The Rise of the Black Plain-Novel

Chapter 615: Fight

"I'm ready!" Minos said, just after he stopped face to face with Emlyn, in an area where those soldiers were already standing around.

At that instant, Minos and Emlyn then looked at each other for a moment, preparing for the fight to begin.

Suddenly, this young man threw a rock up, causing everyone there to take a deep breath for the start of the match.

And while he and Emlyn were paying attention to the falling stone, it finally crashed into the ground in a few seconds, indicating the beginning of the fight!

Immediately upon seeing this, Emlyn ran in the opposite direction to where Minos was standing with all her speed, intending to escape the space of influence of her opponent's techniques.

She had had many difficulties in previous fights because of the effects of Minos' techniques. And knowing that he should have improved to some degree in each of them after this recent advance, this fox didn't want to take any chances.

She knew very well that the effects of those techniques would be even more intense on her. So, in order not to make her opponent's life easier, she was trying to maintain a long-range fight, something that would give her some 'breathing room.'

Vuup!

At the same time that she was running around, trying to get away from Minos, this young man had not taken his sword out of his spatial ring. Instead of just trying to use his favorite technique, he first wanted to try his other techniques right now.

And to do so, he soon started running towards Emlyn, while he had a smile on his face and activated his techniques one after the other, quickly.

Explosive Steps!

By activating his movement technique, he had reached his maximum speed, 100 meters per second, in a short fraction of time. However, because of this, he had caused a small amount of dust to rise in the air the moment he had accelerated his speed.

Infinite Dream!

Then, while moving towards Emlyn, he immediately activated his mental technique to distract some of his opponent's attention.

However, this young man knew that he could not achieve the same result that he had previously obtained with Abby.

After all, unlike that woman who was weaker than he was, Emlyn had more spiritual power than he. This Nine-tailed Fox had more than 100% of the spiritual energy that he had. Hence, the effects of his technique were much weaker for an opponent of this level.

But since Emlyn still had no more than 200% more spiritual energy than him, his technique could still affect her to some degree!

Because of this, Minos had not excluded using his new technique against this opponent since any help would be beneficial to him.

Devouring Art!

At the same time that he had activated that mental technique, a black ring appeared around him, coming out from within him and expanding until it reached the 200-meter mark away from him.

Simultaneously, the brightness of that place diminished significantly, while many of young Stuart's soldiers felt the mighty devouring power of this technique.

And it was no different for Emlyn.

The moment such a technique had been active, unlike those soldiers, this fox had immediately felt a strong power trying to devour her spiritual energies!

But even though she hadn't been able to get out of the affected space of such a technique in time, that wasn't enough to scare her. After all, she was at level 54, and this technique would become weaker and weaker the greater the difference between Minos' spiritual power and that of his opponent.

So, she could still do a lot in this situation, although she felt as if a small parasite was sucking her energies away.

But before Emlyn could even worry about that, she soon felt a powerful wave of energy attacking her.

'Oh? This...' She wondered what that was as she tried to run through that region, already preparing to send counterattacks in Minos' direction.

And just after feeling this invisible attack sent by Minos, just for a brief instant, as she ran and tore the air with her claws to attack that young man, she felt as if she was going to faint.

Swooish!

'A mental attack?' She made a solemn expression, as she felt as if her consciousness was being 'attracted' towards a dark place.

"Au! Au!"

However, she had not fallen for Minos' attack. Instead, Emlyn promptly shook her head a few times in the air while letting out a loud bark.

While she was dealing with this mental attack, Minos had dodged the air blades sent in his direction, still running towards that fox, who at the moment looked quite upset.

Indestructible Body!

As he did so, he promptly activated his defensive technique, making his body much stronger than before, as strong as a high-level grade-2 weapon!

And it didn't take long for him to get close enough to that fox and throw a punch towards Emlyn's giant body.

Pow!

"What?" Several people in that place shouted in shock as they realized how different Minos' strategy was for this fight.

These people had seen this young man fight on several occasions. So, each of them knew more or less what this ruler's most common fighting style was.

But here was Minos, fighting in a completely different way than he had in the past.

He was not using his sword and was running towards his target while unleashing a punch, as if he had some hand-to-hand technique.

Hence, each of these soldiers had been taken aback by this!

As for the powers demonstrated by this young man, all the soldiers were very impressed by this as well. But since they had expected similar things for the techniques they already knew, the shock regarding this had not been as great as the surprise of seeing him fight so differently.

"Wow!"

"His speed seems to be even faster than lady Emlyn's!" One of the stronger soldiers there said this aloud as he watched Minos and that beast trying to attack and dodge each other's attacks.

"Hmm, and the young master's support technique is already so good to the point that our energies are not being absorbed, even considering that we are within the technique's affected space!" Pyke, level 47, said aloud while standing next to Robin and Barbara.

Barbara was also at level 47 now, while Robin was only at level 46.

Anyway, upon hearing that man's comment, Robin immediately said. "I don't understand... Why does Minos have a hand-to-hand technique when he has a mental technique? Did he learn two techniques at once?"

"Hahaha, silly girl, that must be the evolution of one of his other techniques." Celeste said as she watched that fight, not far from where Robin was standing. "But it's truly impressive."

"I'm afraid that even a level 57 nobleman would take some damage if he suffered the blows that this fox is receiving!"

'Indeed... His power has increased tremendously after advancing by just one level!' Angela thought to herself as she listened to Celeste's voice from afar.

Angela felt that even if she used her defenses generated by her Silver-grade technique, she would have great difficulty defending herself against Minos. With that, she could more or less come to the same conclusion as Celeste, that young Stuart's attacks should be strong enough to threaten a level 57 person of a noble origin!

But of course, she wasn't sure if that would be enough for Minos to beat someone with those characteristics. After all, besides the fact that this was just a friendly fight, Emlyn was a spiritual beast and had many different aspects than humans.

And since this woman's understanding was not deep, she could not judge for sure the limits of that young man who was exchanging blows with that beast at this very moment.

Pow!

Swooish!

Another punch from Minos hit Emlyn's big body, making her shake. She then opened her big mouth while letting out sounds of pain along with her saliva.

On the other hand, Minos was in a strange position at the moment. He was trying to keep punching his opponent's body while using his legs to counter Emlyn's three paws, which were constantly cutting towards him.

"Au! Au!"

"Ahhh!"

After fighting for almost 4 minutes, when the tails of that Nine-tailed Fox were about to hit him once again, Minos finally removed his sword from his spatial ring.

Spatial Sword!
