[The following Chapters contain brutal, bloody fights. Proceed with caution I guess.]
"Damn," Julian muttered.
The ch monster had an army of fellow ch monsters, only they were smaller and, well, he had none.
He inhaled and tilted his head to the left and to the right, bracing himself for what was in front of him.
The ch Monster smiled, his hands now out from his eye.
"You're good, I must applaud. In fact, you're literally a god because this is the first ti I'm having difficulty in facing anyone," the monster said.
"But then, I'm a tech god. I go by the na ch Tech Monster. I was not at first a—"
Julian interrupted him.
"Quit blabbing, let's fight."
He dashed forward, thrusting his sword into the throat of a ch monster.
He seed to have opened its carotid artery (that's if it had one), because blood sprayed profusely out of its neck.
Julian stared at the monster, unfazed, and before two could attack him, he threw the still alive but slowly dying ch monster on the two.
The profuse spraying blood entered their eyes and, just as they were reeling backwards, Julian thrust, simultaneously, his sword through the necks of both of them.
Sa spot as he did with the first.
He seed to have plucked open their carotid artery because blood was now gushing out like a loose tap.
It splashed across his face, but he ignored it.
His helt was on so blood spraying on it was the least of his problems.
The ch Tech Monster had shifted away now, watching, expecting that his legions of ch monsters would do justice to defeating Julian.
But then, Julian had just killed three, and now, he was killing a fourth, brutally slicing it from the midsection.
For sothing that was 'ch', Julian was expecting less blood and more steel, but as it seed, obviously, these ch monsters had more 'flesh' than 'steel'.
Well, that was none of Julian's business.
He would kill them all.
The galactic shield seed to be very helpful at this point, protecting him from incoming attacks.
He plucked out the eyeball of a ch monster, the optic nerve snapped and, as the eyeball floated in the airless space, Julian could see it stretching out, shaking slightly.
He ducked an incoming sword directed at his head and, doing a quick 360, he kicked the sword and it shot into the mouth of the sender, going as deep into its throat.
The last thing Julian heard from the ch monster was a muffled shout of pain and blood slowly drooling out.
Julian didn't stop there. He went towards it, taking the sword out with force.
It made a ripping-out-of-flesh sound. Sothing like:
Cruuskkk!
A ch monster was flying at him with great force; Julian didn't see it but felt it and so, out of instinct, he ducked and, instead of the sword aid at him slicing his throat, it went ahead to slice off (more like 'chop off') the head of the already dying ch monster.
The ch Tech Monster was sitting on a floating rock.
The place was already teeming with many floating rocks and the star cruiser was soon out of sight.
Julian now stood on a rock and stared at the remaining ch monsters.
Being scared and being terrified were entirely different things on its own. But now, these monsters weren't scared or terrified; they were horrified.
They weren't so mindless. They had minds of their own and, looking at Julian, they saw him as so god.
God because he wasn't clothed in a ch or planetary governor costu. Julian was clothed in a Knight's armor. Not the normal one but then, one that looked different. Out of the ordinary.
Way too dope-looking for a normal knight armor.
And the way Julian looked at them with this confidence, it was just really scary.
The ch Tech Monster now stood up from the rock it was sitting on.
Julian watched it, noticing that the eye he had thrust a sword into was now covered by a steel-looking eye patch.
Julian watched it very slowly.
It was another of its 'Tech' wonders. No wonder he called himself (yes, he could now be addressed as "him" as it was clearly male and not genderless), the ch Tech Monster, because indeed, it was doing wonders with tech.
The ch Tech Monster raised his hands up and halted the ch monsters.
He smiled and grinned, looking at Julian in a gaze that combined being surprised and being impressed.
He then smiled.
"So far," he began. "So good. I an, you've been the best so far. You've killed almost all of my ch soldiers."
Julian raised a brow.
"So that ans you'll just admit I won, let go, and continue your life. At least find a weaker victim?"
The monster laughed.
"If you had been this ruthless when we first started, I would have considered doing this. But then, that ti I beat you and went your head through the teorites, I felt you were weak and sothing pulled you back in. If you ask , I'd say you cheated. I don't know."
If Julian was being honest, he would say he almost died if not for the motivation Xea had given him and his healing points.
Nevertheless, he cheated the most.
"You say I cheated?" Julian asked and scoffed. "Pathetic. Weren't you the one who summoned your legion of ch monsters and is still losing? C'mon! How shaless can you be."
The monster continued, his voice hoarse, thick, and draggy.
"When your helt ca off and I saw your face, I sensed, with my tech, that you are not from this galaxy or even from the next. You co from a weaker race. One that is very easy to kill. One I could squish like a bug!"
'From a weaker race and not from this galaxy or the next?' Julian thought. Wasn't he from Zyros? Or was this bastard trying to talk, make him ponder, and then, do sothing unexpected.
Julian quickly ca out of the assumptions. He wouldn't let this bastard get him.
"If you want to die then bring it on, face I guess," Julian said to the monster, no longer afraid (was he even in the first place? He earlier was after being motivated by Xea, he no longer feared.)
The ch monster laughed, looking at his dumb-skulled legion who looked back like they had their brains thrown into the sun already. Like the sun had lted every morsel of sense they would ever have.
"While I nursed my wound, the fuckin' wound you gave !, I thought and I also watched. With the way you fought, it seed like you had trained for many years in combat and so, you seem to be impossible in that field. For you to win against a lord in combat like , I realized you must really be a pro," the ch Tech Monster said.
Julian carefully listened, knowing yet again that sothing massive was incoming.
"To cut the whole story short since I learnt you don't like too much talk," the monster grinned, snapping his fingers.
The mont he did so, all the swords in the hands of the remaining ch monsters (about 14 remained), surprisingly turned to large-looking guns.
"So if we can't defeat you with steel..."
Julian had been staring at them, amazed. And when he turned to face the large ch Monster, he saw a very large-looking gun in its hands.
Edges were woven like threads, surface silk-like glass.
The monster was very tall, he knew, but it holding a gun as large as that?
What could happen.
"...we'll defeat you with bullets!"
Boom!
A very large bullet shot out of the gun. Concurrently, the other ch monsters did the sa.
Boom!
An explosion that rented the air with a deafening blast, shattering almost all the floating rocks and Julian's eardrums.
