Instinct takes over as I swiftly dodge to the side, narrowly avoiding the incoming attack. The object, sharp and deadly, embeds itself into the ground where I once stood. I turn my attention towards the source, ready to face this unexpected threat.
As I examine the long spear that was aid at , I notice the powerful aura that propelled it. It's a dangerous spear, and the thought of catching it crosses my mind.
Just as I prepare myself for the impending danger, a figure descends gracefully to the ground before and Roth. It's a female vampire, her flowing purple hair cascading down to her waist. Unlike the more robust figures of my mother and Zamira, she possesses a slender, athletic physique similar to Misty's.
A wave of frustration emanates from Roth as he mutters under his breath, clicking his tongue in annoyance.
"You know her?" I ask Roth, my curiosity piqued by his reaction.
Roth lets out a sigh, his tone tinged with irritation. "I know her. She's from the Cross family, and she possesses a rather troubleso blood power."
My eyes narrow as I take in the situation. It appears that this encounter holds more significance than I initially thought. The tension in the air is palpable, and I can sense the underlying history between Roth and this mysterious vampire.
Before I can react, however, the girl raises her hand, her expression filled with urgency and sincerity.
"Wait! I am sorry!" she shouts, her voice filled with genuine remorse. "I never ant to attack you. My clones mistook you for a target. By the way, my na is Avril Cross,"
I freeze, my Ki still gathered, ready to deliver a devastating blow. Confusion swirls within as I contemplate her words.
Lowering my Ki and easing the tension in my stance, I take a mont to assess the situation. It becos clear that this girl, despite her blood power and affiliation, may not be an enemy after all.
A sense of caution remains, but I open myself to the possibility of a peaceful resolution. It's essential to distinguish between true foes and those caught up in circumstances beyond their control.
"Why should we believe you?" Roth's voice cuts through the air, his suspicion evident in his tone.
The girl ets Roth's gaze, her eyes filled with sincerity and a hint of vulnerability.
"I understand your doubts, but please, give a chance to explain," she implores, her voice laced with desperation. "My clones were ant to confront a different target entirely. They must have mistaken you for soone else, and for that, I deeply apologize."
Her words hang in the air, creating a brief mont of tension as Roth and I exchange a glance. There is a glimr of recognition in Roth's eyes, a hint of understanding.
I take a step forward, my gaze softening as I address her.
"Everyone deserves a chance to rectify their mistakes," I say, my voice filled with empathy. "But know that any further attempts to harm us will not be taken lightly."
The girl nods, relief washing over her features. She understands the precarious position she finds herself in, and she is willing to make ands.
"Thank you," she whispers, her voice filled with gratitude. "I promise, you won't face any more attacks from or my clones."
"Oh, it's not like I worry about them anyway," I reply dismissively, my voice laced with a hint of confidence. "Besides, you can't expect to spare you just because you are a blood power user. After all, this tournant is only for the strongest."
Slowly, I begin to walk towards Avril, my steps deliberate and filled with purpose. I want to test her resolve, to see if she truly has what it takes to withstand the power that I possess. A grin forms on my face, a glimr of anticipation shining in my eyes.I think you should take a look at
"One blow," I say, my voice dripping with challenge. "You have to withstand one of my blows."
Avril's expression briefly reflects confusion, but it quickly transforms into one of unwavering determination. She has accepted my challenge, ready to prove herself in the face of overwhelming odds.
"If that's what you want, I'll prove myself to you," Avril declares, her voice steady and resolute.
I take a stance, my aura pulsating with an intensity that matches my anticipation. The air crackles with energy as I prepare to deliver the force of my attack.
"Behemoth's Punch: Sixth stage!" I shout, a surge of power propelling forward in a flash, appearing before Avril almost instantaneously. My right fist, brimming with aura and the intent to kill, hurtles towards her head with unstoppable force.
However, just as my fist is about to make contact, Avril raises her hands, forming an 'x' shape with them. In a remarkable display of strength and resilience, she blocks my attack, preventing it from reaching its intended target.
"BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!"
The sound reverberates across the area, a thunderous echo of the force unleashed. Debris fills the air as Avril is sent flying backward, propelled by the sheer power of my blow.
As the dust settles, I scan the area, searching for any sign of Avril's presence. I had expected her to be defeated, unable to withstand the full brunt of my attack. Yet, to my astonishnt, I see her erging from the debris with a smile on her face.
"I survived," she exclaims triumphantly.
I am left speechless, my mind struggling to comprehend what I have just witnessed. Avril stands before , seemingly unscathed despite the ferocity of my strike. This revelation baffles . I had used the fifth stage against Roth, and even with his formidable durability, he had sustained considerable damage. Yet, Avril has erged from the clash seemingly unhard.
Roth, who had been observing the battle, speaks up from behind , breaking the stunned silence.
"I told you her blood power is annoying," he says, his voice tinged with both annoyance and begrudging respect.
Curiosity burns within as I turn to face Roth, my gaze focused on Avril.
"You didn't take that blow head-on. What did you do?" I ask, a mix of awe and genuine curiosity in my voice.
Avril's smile widens, a flicker of amusent dancing in her eyes.
"Fufu, I simply swapped with the clone I created just before the attack reached ," she answers, her tone filled with a touch of pride.
