Chapter 462: Wrath vs Lucien (2/2)
"WOAH!!" The people in the arena are shocked as they see Wrath"s body rolling on the ground while her blood splashes everywhere.
While they are happy that their King does not lose that fight, they feel that something is wrong. After everything they"ve heard about Lucien, watching him kill a woman seems disappointing.
But for Lucien, that feels freeing. The sensation of hitting Wrath is enjoyable because he sees her now not as a woman but as the demon that has been tormenting his sister.
And for Wrath, that is not bad because the fact that Lucien is releasing his fury on her makes her and Donna stronger. Also, she loves a good bare hands fight.
Then she quickly dematerializes her broken body and remakes a new one in front of Lucien, already attacking him with a powerful punch.
*BAM*
He blocks that punch easily with his forearm as their eyes meet. Both are smiling excitedly.
"No soul weapons?" He asks.
Wrath quickly nods as she prefers to fight without weapons. She only used that chain because she was mad at Lucien. But since she doesn"t really want to kill him, that"s the best way.
"No demonic energy?" She asks. If Lucien continues to use his ma.s.sive demonic energies, no matter how angry he is, Wrath knows that she has no chance to beat him.
Lucien understands that, and to make the fight fairer, he accepts her proposal. Although Wrath has to use demonic energy to maintain her physical body, she doesn"t need to boost her with it, just as he doesn"t need to boot himself.
*Whoosh*
She tries to attack him with her other fist. Her speed is quite high, but even without using demonic energies, his natural speed is still high as it is his main attribute.
*BAM*
He blocks her blow with his other forearm and quickly initiates a counterattack using his knee. He acts quickly and knees her belly.
"AH!!" Without being able to use demonic energy to rematerialize her body, Wrath is unable to dodge that blow and is thrown up while spitting blood on his face.
Her blood disrupts Lucien"s vision for a second, and Wrath quickly regains control of her body. She spins in the air as she tightens both hands in one fist before hitting him in the forehead.
*BAM*
He is. .h.i.t and feels his whole head shake as he is thrown back several meters. But he regains control over his body and does a few somersaults until he stops standing.
Wrath also falls to her feet, and they both look at each other as he wipes her blood on his face.
While the other people in the arena watch Lucien and Wrath fight silently, at the top of the arena, l.u.s.t materializes her body beside Donna to support her.
However, she doesn"t seem concerned but is smiling while her confidence in her brother just increases. "He"s really amazing..."
"So stubborn..." l.u.s.t comments as she rolls her eyes. But regardless of what or how he wants to do something, she will always support him.
In the center of the arena, Lucien licks Wrath"s blood which is still close to his lips. "Hmmm... is this how your blood really tastes?"
"Hahaha..." She laughs in a bizarre way. "Do you like my blood?? I guess that vampire has influenced you a lot, as demons don"t usually like blood."
He makes a thoughtful expression. "Don"t you like blood?"
Wrath also makes a thoughtful expression and then looks at her fists, noticing some of Lucien"s blood on her fingers. For some reason, she feels that she should taste his blood. Everything about him is so different and interesting that she feels that even such a bizarre experience can be worth it.
She slowly brings her hand to her mouth and licks a drop of his blood. "d.a.m.n!!"
She widens her eyes when she realizes that Lucien"s blood is not only the most delicious thing she"s ever tasted, but it also enters her body, bringing many sorts of different energies that begin to strengthen her.
Lucien starts to laugh at Wrath"s shocked expression. "So, did you like it?"
"Yeah..." She doesn"t hesitate to tell the truth. "I loved it."
"Then try to get more out of me." He signals to her as he smiles provocatively.
"Definitely!" She also smiles and runs towards him.
Lucien sees Wrath running and thinks of different ways to attack her, but since he doesn"t want to use his abilities now, he just waits for her attack.
*Whoosh*
"HAAAAA!!!" A few meters away from him, she jumps and spins her body in the air, starting a kick with the back of her foot.
*BAM*
He blocks using his two forearms in an X-shaped position, but as that blow was really mighty, he is pushed back a few inches.
Wrath already expected that and uses Lucien"s block to propel herself up, performing a backflip and starting another kick with even more force.
*BAM* *BAM* *BAM* *BAM* *BAM*
He blocks again, but she keeps starting other kicks with incredible speed, giving him no choice but to keep defending. With each blow, Wrath injures his arms more and more as she pushes him back.
Then he punches her foot in the seventh kick, causing her to lose her balance and fall. She rolls on the ground to regain her balance, but when she notices, he has already started a kick toward her head.
*BAM!!!*
She firms her knees and crosses her arms in front of her face, but Lucien doesn"t stop and hits her brutally, breaking her block and throwing her several meters back.
She tries to regain control of her body, but as soon as she stops rolling, Lucien is already in front of her. He quickly attacks, and she blocks, but he grabs her by the neck.
Wrath doesn"t try to fight her way free and just smiles at him as blood oozes over her face. "Good... this is really good, isn"t it?"
Lucien also smiles at her as he slowly brings her face towards his, bringing their lips closer and closer. And again, she has a strange feeling that he wants to kiss her.
And even more strangely, he licks the blood that runs an inch from her lips. "Hmm... yeah, this is really good."
[What the h.e.l.l is going on?!?!?] Wrath expected a lot of things from that fight, but it all was about making Lucien angrier and generating more demonic energy with that.
However, he is doing bizarre things that arouse new and strange feelings inside her. He still looks upset with her, but he seems to want to drive her crazy more than releasing his anger by beating her.
Wrath is furious for being confused and grabs his shoulders to get up some support and head-b.u.t.t his forehead hard.
*BAM*
Lucien is thrown back by Wrath"s mighty blow. His blood runs down her forehead, and she feels the strange urge to drink it again, but she doesn"t do that because she doesn"t want to be influenced by him or, at last, leave it obvious.
He starts doing backflips as she charges against him again. She attacks more and more furiously, but he just dodges her blows using his superior agility.
*Whoosh* *Whoosh* *Whoosh* *Whoosh*
With every blow Wrath misses, she gets angrier. She doesn"t even care about how he and Donna were acting because all she wants now is to beat Lucien because he makes her angry.
"HAAAAAA!!!!" She yells as she punches and kicks in a variety of ways, but Lucien dodges all blows.
*BAM*
Then he counterattacks, punching her belly. But she ignored all the pain and grabbed his shoulders before using his body as support to somersault over him while using her sharp nails to tear his clothes and skin.
Lucien feels a lot of pain due to Wrath"s nails cutting his skin. Even though she didn"t want to use demonic energy to boost her body, she couldn"t stop that furious energy from entering his body.
He tries to turn around, but she holds his hair in one hand and uses her nails like a blade to make a long cut on his back.
"AH!!" His blood splashes on the ground, but he doesn"t stop smiling excitedly. Then, unable to turn around, he attacks with his elbow, hitting Wrath in the face with a strong blow.
*BAM*
She takes a step back but holds back the pain. Then he turns and attacks while she attacks again.
*BAM* *BAM* *BAM* *BAM*
They stop trying to dodge each other"s attacks and start focusing only on the offensive. Lucien could use his agility advantage to avoid getting hit, but he doesn"t do that as well, as she doesn"t use the ma.s.sive amount of demonic energy she"s generating to her advantage.
The truth is that both Lucien and Wrath are enjoying that moment, and so are balancing their power to make that fight last as long as possible.
They continue exchanging brutal blows and covering the entire floor in the center of the arena with their blood. Then she tries to kick his face again, but he holds her foot.
"Bad girl..." He smiles at her and then pulls her by the foot before slamming her body against the ground.
*BAM!!!* *CRACK*
That blow is so mighty that it makes the entire arena shake, creating a small crater with Wrath"s body as all her bones crack.
She spits out some blood that drops on Lucien"s face, so he smiles and licks it off. He can feel her furious energy in her blood, and it runs madly inside his body. While it"s bizarre, it"s also pleasant.
Before Wrath recovers, Lucien pulls her by the foot again, bringing her body up in an arc that goes over his body before he slams her against the ground on the other side.
*BAM!!!* *CRACK*
Her body creates another crater while her bones are broken. She can"t even move and prepares to rematerialize a new body, but Lucien pulls her by the foot again.
He flaps his wings, flying a few meters up as he pulls her body. He wants to get a bigger impulse to slam her body against the floor with even more force.
And Wrath quickly understands that. A part of her wants to rematerialize her body, but another part wants to feel that brutal blow. She wants Lucien to release all his anger and resentment on her.
[He"s so crazy!!] She thinks while she can"t help but like Lucien more and more. Even though that only strengthens her, he"s not holding back and giving her all his anger.
In the air, Lucien smiles and rocks Wrath"s body downward as he flaps his wings in the opposite direction, propelling him downward.
*BAAAM!!!!* *SMASH*
He slams Wrath"s body against the floor with all his original strength, with no demonic energy. Despite that being far from his maximum strength, that blow is very powerful, enough to create a several-meter crater with Wrath"s body, which turns into flesh paste in contact with rocks below the arena"s floor.
Her blood, bones, and guts splash everywhere, reaching even the people in the arena bleachers. Most of them start puking because of that brutal scene, while everyone is perplexed.
Yet, most of Wrath"s blood falls over Lucien"s body like a bizarre rain. He looks up as he feels outstanding to have released all that anger he had at Wrath because she was pus.h.i.+ng Donna so hard.
Not only that, but beating Wrath to the content of his heart has also helped him release some of the anger he"s been feeling at not knowing if his mother is his ally or enemy, as well as all the other frustrations he has.
It"s not like he could just beat someone to feel good, but Wrath fought him in a way that allowed him to feel so good, much more than he thought to be possible.
And that"s because of her demonic energy, which he feels running madly through his body as he drinks the drops of her blood running down his lips.
And because of that, he can"t help but feel grateful to her.
As Wrath"s blood finishes falling to the ground and people are still trying to figure out what just happened, she rematerializes her body in the sky above Lucien, flapping her wings in the air as she smiles at him.
"d.a.m.n!!! That was so f.u.c.king good!!" She comments as she flies towards him.
Lucien smiles as he sees her starting a powerful punch toward him. Then he flies up, also punching.
*BAM!!!*
Their fists meet in the air, creating a powerful force wave that raises a cloud of dust.
Within that dust cloud, Lucien quickly uses his other hand to grab Wrath"s neck again. She doesn"t even try to fight because she wants so much to feel anything he wants to do to her.
He flies down, slamming her body again against the ground. But this time, he doesn"t do that too hard but presses her body below his.
And unlike any attack Wrath expects, Lucien shocks her again, kissing her lips so madly.
[THE h.e.l.l???] She gets more confused than ever.
