“Jake, I recognize that energy. I have fought against someone with a similar energy, and I whooped his ass,” Roth declares, his tone serious, yet a flicker of confidence dances in his eyes. “I don’t know what it is, but if you are planning to use it against me, you won’t win because it’s useless.”
His words hit me like a bolt of lightning, a surge of surprise spreading across my face. Roth had encountered a god before and emerged victorious. He had become a god slayer, a realization that shook me to the core. In my arrogance, I had underestimated him, failing to grasp the extent of his newfound strength. But now, standing face-to-face, the truth stares me in the eye.
“Behemoth punch!” We both exclaim simultaneously as our fists collide. The air surrounding the collision ripples, and the sheer force raises dust, debris, and small stones. In that moment, there is a clear winner—a victor amidst the clash. The celestial energy that once enveloped my arm vanishes, as if avoiding a direct confrontation with Roth’s formidable aura.
With a sudden, swift movement, we leap away from each other, creating distance. Several meters separate us now. I glance at my right hand, the one I used to collide with Roth’s. It trembles, blood seeping from multiple cuts inflicted by the collision. My hand bore the brunt of his aura, absorbing the full impact. But slowly, I sense regeneration setting in, the wounds starting to heal.
Yet, I can’t help but acknowledge the gravity of the situation. It has been a long time since I last bled. I had severely underestimated Roth’s power. Furthermore, I realize that I still lack a full understanding of how to harness and utilize my celestial energy effectively in battle. It appears that, in its current state, it offers little assistance in combat. It’s a valuable lesson learned.
“I told you. That energy will be useless against me because of my Blood Space manipulation,” Roth says, a confident smile playing on his lips.
His words hang in the air, resonating within me. Blood Space manipulation—a power I had witness before. I take a moment to assess the situation. Roth’s mastery over his blood power has granted him a formidable advantage. My celestial energy alone will not be enough to overcome his Blood Space manipulation.
A surge of adrenaline courses through me. I take a deep breath, steadying myself amidst the aftermath of our clash. The wounds on my hand continue to heal, the regenerative properties of my body at work.
“Roth, you may have an advantage now, but I am not one to be easily defeated,” I reply, my voice infused with newfound resolve. “I may not have fully harnessed the potential of that energy, but I possess other abilities that you have yet to witness. Prepare yourself.”
A flicker of surprise crosses Roth’s face, quickly masked by a resolute expression. He readies himself, anticipation burning in his eyes.
