The Goddess Made A Mistake Again-Chapter 270 - - Still Standing
270: Chapter 270 – Still Standing
270 -270 – Still Standing
“Boom!”
The sword mantra hit Henry’s figure and a small but dense explosion occurred that covered the aftermath.
“Haa… Haa…”
Arthur kneeled to the ground as he felt his low stamina slowly consume him.
He had put all he had on that sword mantra.
‘Did I get him?’ Arthur questioned.
Arthur shook his head.
There was no way Henry could have survived that attack.
He had seen him get hit with it so there was no chance of dodging.
About surviving… there wasn’t any way Henry could survive that without any special protection or even his sword.
Which he turned around to see, still stuck at the wall.
“That attack… now Henry has to be something inhumane to survive something like that with his bare hands.” Falbic said, “So it seems, this battle of giant and talent ended with the talent winnin-”
Suddenly, a laugh from the deep darkness of the abyss, came resounding to the surface.
“Hahaha…”
Everyone looked towards in anticipation at the huge smoke that blinded Henry’s figure.
As they heard a scary laugh come from the smoke, slowly the smoke removed as they found Henry’s figure, standing.
“What the hell…” Falbic said as he saw Henry laughing.
…
“Hahaha… I survived… I fucking survived that attack all by my own.” I laugh feeling pain through all sides of both hands.
It was excruciating pain sure, but it was one that I was glad to have.
When that sword mantra hit me, it was like being hit by a fucking truck.
I was trying to hold my own against the truck with just my bare hands.
Yes, it was suicidal and yes, I even thought of using my black hole ability to lessen the damage… but shook at all idea.
Have you ever in your life had a thought that would give you utter glory but was completely ludicrous and suicidal and still wanted to go through with it?
That was the feeling I had when that attack hit me.
Even though I was sure, I would die or have to sacrifice my hands, I didn’t give up.
The power inside me said not to give up.
If the end result was death then so be it, but if it was otherwise…
My hands shook from the burning pain all over them.
There was burn marks, meat becoming visible at the cost of turning almost white.
“Hahaha… this is it.” I look ahead at Arthur, “I survived your strongest attack, Arthur!”
Arthur felt more ashen when he heard those words.
He saw Henry survive but the words were the confirmation he didn’t search for.
For Arthur, it was like his nightmare came on to become reality.
Falbic came close to me, “Do you want to stop?
Give up the fight?
Your hands looking quite ba-”
“Give up the fight?” I looked at him like he was suggesting genocide, “For what reason man?
Can’t you see I’m winning?”
Falbic sighed, “That’s the adrenaline… surviving that mantra was truly incredible, but at what cost.
Right now, you’re in the feel of it, you don’t know it but your body is running on backup power kid.
I suggest you give up, you put up quite the fight today.”
“Haha…” I laugh, feeling angry yet a tiny part of my brain telling me he wasn’t wrong.
“You’re a fighter, right?”
“Me?
You got to be joking, do I look lik-”
“Stop bullshitting!”
“…And what if so?” Falbic asked, “Don’t say something that would put me in a bad position.”
“Just a question… have you in life, ever felt like doing a thing that was completely insignificant… and it won’t give you anything but pain and regret later but still felt like you had to do this?”
Falbic sighed, “…Hah.
So you’re telling me you won’t give up?”
I nod, “I knew you’d understand.
Even though you comment shit, you got a brain in you.”
“Hey!
That was personal.” Falbic laughed and steps back, “But I’ll respect your decision.”
“From one fighter to another… beat his ass, kid.”
“Sure will.” I smile and look back to Arthur, who was in shock land, “Yo Arthur!
Get up, we still have a fight to finish.”
Arthur almost fell on his butt.
The guy stammered, “You’re going to still fight?…
with those hands?”
I look at what he was pointing at; my hands were a mess.
They were burned and I couldn’t move them that much… but with my regenerative factor, I’m sure they will be fixed in no time.
I smile at him, “Think of it as a handicap for you, maybe you now finally have a chance at winning.”
“DO YOU THINK THIS IS A JOKE!” Arthur finally broke, “I’M GIVING MY ASS OUT HERE AND YOU’RE STILL JOKING!”
“Woah dude… take a chill pill.
Why are you smoking so much when I’m the one that’s burned?”
Arthur angrily turned his blade around, “Fuck this!
I’m going to defeat you this instan- Cough!”
Suddenly, he fell to his knees and started coughing.
My eyes saw his stamina level which were just at 9%.
Yep… he’s fucked.
“That sword mantra took everything out of you, didn’t it?”
“I’m… I’m not done YET!” Suddenly fueling himself with protagonistic power, Arthur ran towards me.
Striking me with multiple attacks that I dodged as they had no real power behind them.
He was only showing a fake power… this Arthur is already defeated.
He was defeated the moment he saw me rise out of his strongest attack.
“Bam!”
A quick hit to his stomach with my leg, threw him back as he hit the fall and fell.
“Cough Cough!”
Arthur coughed as he spat out some blood.
Looking at his own blood, a sense of foreboding came over him as his eyes suddenly glowed red.
‘Oh oh!
He’s about to do something crazy like me.’
Arthur got up and he’s body suddenly started to fill up with a red aura that was similar to Abraham’s when he amplified himself.
But unlike him Arthur didn’t have any Sigmat Ring.
That was his own power, a secret one.
The Noblis Augmented
A secret method lodged within the Reginold family members that helps them amplify their power to untold levels.
At the cost of extreme stress.
Currently, Arthur didn’t have much stamina nor willpower inside him to control that stress… and in turn that would turn him…
“Haa… Haa…” Arthur took deep breaths like a rabid dog and looked at me like he was about to eat me.
The guy went in MAD Mode.
Yep… I’m fucked.
I could see his power level rising to greater levels than any he had before.
With my hand in such bad condition, I don’t think I am ready to take this monster on at this moment.
Maybe it was a bad idea to trample on the protagonist when he was losing his mind.
“I should probably interven-” I signal Falbic to stop.
Because I had another stupid feeling building inside me.
“Hey, Arthur!”
He’s eyes widened to great length’s as he completely focused on me.
“What the hell is that?
Are you using some secret power up thing or just using cheap makeup to scare me?”
A stupid idea.
“HeNRy!!!” He screamed out in broken cords.
“Doesn’t matter, how you call me out for mercy…” I lift my hand up and tighten it into a fist, “Because I have to defeat you to ntr your girlfriend, bitch!”
