Seeing how Chen had finally joined the fight, there was slight relief on Daphne's end, but she still wasn’t so sure that the two of them alone could deal with the situation. She still wanted to be by Gary’s side, and there was one person who was in their way.
‘I don’t have a clue how strong Gary’s father is, but with that weapon, maybe the two of us can do sothing?’ Daphne thought.
“Anyway, any variables also need to be gotten rid of, and it looks like there might be even more joining soon,” Stanley said as he looked up at Kai and the others who were fighting nonstop in the stands.
When Daphne turned to look at what Stanley was trying to see, she turned her head back and could see that he was already flying straight towards her.
Stanley had closed the distance in a matter of monts, and now with his wings attached to the back of his arms, swinging them up, the edges were sharp like razor blades and a mist in the air would be left with a simple swing, allowing it to freeze anything in front of it.
However, before it clashed and slashed Daphne apart, a sword was swung from Dean and the two of them had cut into each other. The edge of Dean’s sword was starting to glow slightly orange and was containing the elental ice powers of Stanley's form.
Swinging this, he slid his arms up, slicing at the sword, and then spun his body ready to attack Dean again from the other side. His attacks were at an incredibly fast speed, and it was almost as if Dean was fighting against two swords at the sa ti.
However, every single swing, no matter how fast Stanley was moving, Dean was able to block them with his sword as he hit them away.
‘This is not the normal capabilities of a regular human,’ Stanley thought. ‘Yet, I don’t think he is an Altered as well, so how is he able to keep up so fast? Is it because of the weapon in his hands? It already has great power, and it’s able to boost the user to this level as well?’
Seeing how the two were constantly clashing, Daphne felt like this was an opportunity.
“Keep him busy, keep him here as long as you can!” Daphne said.
She went to run, and Stanley was ready to do whatever he could to stop her. Although the man in front of him was fast at reacting, he still hadn’t launched an attack, and it was possible that he couldn’t really keep up with his speed.
In the end, Stanley didn’t chase after Daphne because he could see that she was running in the completely opposite direction from the main stage.
“I’ll deal with that one, after I get rid of you!” Stanley claid as he spun his body and knocked the heavy sword to the side, hitting it with both of his wings.
Quickly then, an ice spike was made in the air and fired out, stabbing Dean right in the shoulder. He didn’t wince in pain and didn’t let it slow him down, as he continued to use the sword to block the attacks.
Although the sword did help him out, Dean knew that he could hardly see any openings.
‘Just my luck, isn’t that woman a King? I thought she would be more helpful than she was. I an, what is she even doing just running away in the end? Did I make a mistake in helping her?’ Dean thought.
He couldn’t think for long as the attacks from Stanley were nonstop. As they hit Dean’s sword, the attacks were almost getting quicker. Stanley was building up montum despite all of the attacks being blocked.
Worried, Dean even pointed the front of his sword and went to fire away an energy beam. Stanley was by the side of the sword and used his foot as he kicked it down, forcing the beam to hit the floor.
Right after, he had another few ice shards floating in the air, and they went and pierced several parts of his body. Still, Dean continued to block the remaining attacks, and a pattern was erging in the fight.
Stanley would continue to strike, and when there was an opening attack with the ice shards he created at the perfect ti. The only thing was the way Dean was moving. Stanley was unable to hit key vitals; it would only be a matter of ti until the wounds piled up too much for Dean.
‘I can’t fight like I did in the past. I still seem to have so leftover senses or experience, maybe it's muscle mory. I don’t know, Rickle didn’t really go into much detail about it all.’ Dean thought. ‘Still, thankful for this sword to allow to fight sowhat, but against an opponent like this, it’s too much.’
Dean was thinking of the retrievers he was able to best, which just went to show what type of level Stanley exactly was.
Eventually, Stanley jumped in the air and spun his body. It clashed into Dean’s sword with several sword strikes and a misty chill was sweeping over, swirling around Dean.
His sword was protecting him from this attack, as it could only focus on what it was directly touching, and the misty ice was starting to affect his body, even freezing part of his hair.
“STANLEY!” A voice shouted from the stage.
Although Stanley wanted to ignore the voice and continue his attack on Dean, he decided to pause and break off the attack, landing a short distance away because he recognized where the voice had co from.
“Just try and stop from getting to the stage now!” Define exclaid, as she lifted her hands on the stage next to her, where several transford Altered were looking in the direction of Stanley.
They were wearing white and purple tracksuits because they were all part of the One Gang, and… they were all under Daphne's control.
