Dunn felt the chilling new power of Hijoi. His muscles had enlarged exponentially. Veins were popping out naturally.
Hijoi didn't want to fight, but wanted to kill, slaughter, and torture everyone responsible for his brother's death.
He walked forward, while covered in a reddish aura.
Suddenly, a group of people started to bang on the main door of the cafe.
Hijoi turned his face left to see the door bang open with officers holding pistols.
" Everyone! Hands up!" One of the officers shouted while aiming directly at Hijoi.
Suddenly, the loud officer noticed Hijoi in front of him with his fist covered in Mana.
Before he could think of anything, the red fist landed. Muscles tore, skin burned from the back. Blood splattered on the entrance gate as the officer's shirt tore open to reveal muscles. His skin had burned.
The dead officer fell from his position on his back.
The six other fighters looked in terror, shivering.
Didn't I command them not to come? Those dumbasses. Dunn thought.
One of the brave cops lifted his gun, trying to aim. Hijoi gave him a side look before appearing in front of him, holding the gun hard enough to shatter it. He used his right leg to kick his stomach before another cop tried defending his friend. Hijoi punched his face again, instantly killing him, while the gun from the other cop's hand flew up. Hijoi held it mid air, before aiming directly at the cop he was holding, and then he shot it.
He turned right, shot two bullets, killing two others, before sprinting towards the last officer, killing him with only his finger.
Hijoi let out a breath before turning to his side.
Dunn stood there. He had moved all the unconscious fighters to one side.
Hijoi looked to his right and saw Labrica unconscious.
" You're cruel!" Dunn said with a slight, hesitant smirk.
" Guess where it came from?" Hijoi fought back.
" From the dead one?"
" Oh yeah…he took my heart with him to hell." His eyes twitched.
" I wish he were rotting there!"
" Oh, you would wish for a lot more once your soul comes out of your body."
Dunn grunted before getting ready to fight.
He slammed his palm on the ground, with them being covered in ice.
Large glacier-like spikes rumbled out of the floor beneath Hijoi.
Hijoi dodged them. Sometimes he jumped, sometimes he took the support of the spikes to dodge others. He went forward toward his goal.
He shattered one of the glacier spikes, holding it as a weapon; he charged at Dunn.
A hologram-type Dunn appeared for a second, like a single frame.
Hijoi felt confused as he felt a punch from behind.
He flew forward, before slamming the ice spike on the ground and doing a three sixty mid air to see many hologram images of Dunn charging at him at high speed while tilted upside down.
Dunn passed right through Hijoi, just like an imaginary body.
Hijoi felt sharp pain as he looked down to see a large hole in his stomach. It healed quickly, but Dunn didn't stop.
Dunn created an ice sword and threw it towards Hijoi.
Hijoi, instead of dodging, held the sword and threw it back towards Dunn. Dunn ducked down, but then suddenly felt Hijoi's presence behind him.
Dunn smirked like he had expected Hijoi to substitute behind him.
Hijoi lifted his arm to slash the ice shard, but then suddenly, he could only see Dunn's hologram images.
Suddenly, he felt a lot of fists punching him.
Sometimes he could see Dunn, and many times he couldn't.
Dunn covered his fist with Mana and punched hard in Hijoi's stomach.
Hijoi's back was slammed against the wall behind him.
Dunn's hologram appeared again, punching many times on Hijoi's stomach.
Hijoi felt the loophole, as he kept on taking on the punches while lifting the shard in his hand, trying to slash Dunn.
Dunn quickly retreated; it felt like teleporting behind.
Hijoi left out a breath of sigh before coughing blood. All his bruises started to heal, but the damage was done. He threw the shard away.
Suddenly, Hijoi appeared in front of Dunn, preparing a punch, but then he felt his body freeze as someone chanted.
" Mana Domain!" It was a chilling sound as a dome of darkness surrounded him.
" Isn't it fun to be here?" A person with a deep voice asked.
His skin was dark, with his black hair long, set like waves of the ocean. His eyes were reddish-green in colour. There was another person who was wearing a white traditional Japanese dress with a single ponytail behind him. His hands were forward, like he was controlling the domain.
" Ranta! Handle him, Dunn…take some rest!" The dark-skinned person said.
" Harry! Are you sure?" Dunn asked him with a slight doubt in his ability.
You are in the Taka squad, but…he is on a different level right now! Dunn thought.
Harry started walking forward.
Hijoi grunted as he concentrated all of his Mana on his frozen fist.
Ranta felt the pain.
He is so powerful! In my Mana Domain, everything I wish and I are frozen completely. But the people I wish to move can move freely in this space! Still…if enough stress is given to me, this domain may shatter!
Harry walked forward, pulled out a sword from his back, and got ready to kill Hijoi.
Suddenly, he felt a force inside the domain. It pushed him back; it was as if the whole domain were suffering.
Ranta coughed blood while his shirt and hair flung back.
The dark barriers of the domain began to crack. Ranta was slowly getting covered with bruises and cuts, with blood pumping out.
DO IT! HARRY!
Harry jumped up while holding the sword with both of his hands, swinging mid-air.
Suddenly, he saw Hijoi's face turn up with a big smile.
The domain shattered as Ranta's whole body crumpled. He gave his last words," You did it, Harry!" before dying as the face of Henry walked past his kneeling corpse.
Hijoi held Henry's head by the hair and threw it towards Dunn.
It hit his chest, covering it with blood.
" I said it, didn't I? He stole my heart with him to hell, I don't know how to get it back!"
Dunn glared at the dead Ranta and Henry's skull below him.
He grunted as energy surrounded him.
Both of them covered their fists with Mana before clashing.
Waves of fists clashed; the speed was enough to trip someone's eyes.
1…2…3…7? Hijoi calculated.
Dunn used his left hand to grab Hijoi's right arm before he clenched his fist with Mana to punch Hijoi in his chest. Suddenly, the fist was covered with black lightning.
The punch landed with great force, sending Hijoi flying back, crashing into the wall.
Immediately, Dunn ran as fast as he could while Hijoi was flying mid-air, producing blue coloured projections behind him.
He and Hijoi crashed into the wall at the same time, harmonising a blast, shredding the wall, sending both of them flying out of the cafe up to the sky.
In the middle of the sky, Dunn surrounded Hijoi with his projections, each of them punching Hijoi's chest. He coughed up blood with each punch landing on him.
He gave one last Hybrid punch, sending Hijoi crashing into the residential houses while flying.
Dunn appeared behind him with his legs up, ready to kick Hijoi on his back. Hijoi quickly turned back, but to his surprise, Dunn was nowhere to be seen. Dunn held his feet from below and spun him mid air before yeeting him back towards the cafe.
This is bad!
Hijoi crashed again on the road of Luvinia with many civilians looking at the fight.
Hijoi used his eyes to track all the projections to see a pattern.
1…2…3,5…7? What the hell is going on? He pondered while trying to get up amidst the chaos. Suddenly, something punched him through the ground on his back, sending him up to the moons.
Multiple projections, like beams, attacked him one by one, and with each hit, the damage was reducing.
Dunn went back and came back forward while readying another punch to Hijoi. It landed, again sending Hijoi back flying, colliding with the ground many times.
Hijoi used his arms to block, while Dunn continuously punched.
He punched again, but this time Hijoi landed on his feet, sliding backwards.
Dunn kicked him in the side chest, causing Hijoi to fall back to the cafe.
Hijoi stood back up and this time clapped his hands, returning to silence.
Keep standing there, I will kill you with one blow! Dunn thought with rage, remembering all of his comrades' deaths in this battle. I create illusory frames. If I hit the mark of 60, I win with a single blow!
Dunn started to surround the cafe with his technique, going as fast as he could with speed enough to rival a God Armour.
10!
The speed increased as Hijoi slammed his feet on the ground, clenching his fist.
30!
The speed was so high that dust piled up everywhere. Civilians had to block their eyes.
50!
Dunn, with full speed, crashed open the wall of the cafe, entering it while holding an ice sword.
59-
Suddenly, Hijoi turned back, and everything felt like a slow-motion film.
" Sixty frames, huh? But those were fake, just amplifying your speed a bit, but in reality, you were just walking for me."
Dunn's grasp on his sword was gone, and suddenly, his face was impaled with it, slamming his body on the floor, creating a small explosion, spreading dust everywhere, from the unconscious Labrica to the wounded Indhra.
Hijoi walked through the dust to see many people entering through the entrance of the cafe.
He looked to his side and realised who they were.
The reinforcements. He waved at them.
" New orders! Note them down!"
The leader of the reinforcements, a Lemoyne warrior, listened carefully.
" First of all! Hojoi Spector and all the warriors except Labrica and I are dead!" He said calmly with no disgust or any hindrance in his voice.
" Now! Take Labrica back to our base, then safely exit from Luvinia back to Silvia."
" What about you, captain? And what about that Demon Kid?"
" I don't know! But at least half of you remain here with me, I have some unfinished business. Then, we will take those two brats with us!"
" Yes, Sir!" All the warriors saluted.
" Quickly! Lock the God Armour in a room, tie down those two brats, and pin 'her' against the wall!"
