"Do you know what'll happen when the two of us fight, Angel Zern?"
I'm not liking the sound of this. Not one bit. I don't think of myself as a God, but at this point, I have to if I want to take this guy on. He's weaker since he's lost his Divinity, and now he's wanting mine. A battle between a Rising God and a Fallen God.
"You'll have to enlighten ."
I'm not going to pretend I know because I don't. Only fools pretend they know when they don't, and I'm not a fool.
"Given that, I'm a Fallen God, and you have the potential to beco one. One of us will die. And there is no coming back for you. A player or not. No respawns, no redoes. For that is the law between a fight beings with Higher Life Ratings."
Sally unconsciously grabs my arm, and even with our weapons drawn. I have a feeling that I'm not walking out of this. Which ans I'll die, or I can run. Before I do anything else, I grab Sally and throw her as hard as I can to the exit of the room.
But before I can leave with her, the door closes. Separating the two of us. Sally is on one side of the door, and still on this side with Jad'vari.
"You didn't think it'd be that easy to get away from . I'll admit you have great survival instincts. You know as you are now, you can't beat , even with the help of the system."
What he ans is the Level adjustnt and health adjustnt. It's been lowered to help in this fight, and he knows that. He's stronger than . How the fuck do I get out of this situation? I've not co this far to die now. Not after everything I've been through.
The Witness is in my hand, and I stare down Jad'vari. If I'm going to die, then I'm making it the hardest-fought battle he's ever been in.
"I won't make it easy on you. It was smart to use your Avatar to draw out so of my most powerful skills. But that doesn't an I'm completely out of the ga yet."
I can assu he's been planning all this since the first mont we entered the Dungeon, and that goes to show how much of a threat he is.
He smiles, and I watch as his form change from that of a hideous monster to that of an ordinary-looking man. He can shapeshift. It's not an ability most Gods have. At least from what I've read. He holds out his left hand, and a sword appears in it.
"I wouldn't have it any other way... But there is one question I have for you before we do end up fighting. Mind you indulge in my question?"
It's easier to talk to him since he's not an ugly monster anymore, and I guess that's pretty superficial to say, but that's not what's important right now.
"Ask away."
It'll give more ti to think of a ga plan, and I'm starting to get so ideas. I doubt he'll be as fast as , and I still have a Skill that lets have invulnerability to damage left. So push cos to shove, and I can activate it to get more ti.
He rests his sword at his side and takes a breath.
"What do you know of Overworld?"
That's a very broad and open-ended question... But he's not asking what I know based on my knowledge. He wants to know if I've ever experienced it before. Which I haven't. All I've heard are stories and read so Lore Scrolls regarding it.
"Nothing from personal experience. But I know from Lore that it's the land of the Gods. And a place that houses most other than The Dark Ones..."
That seems to be all the answer he needs before he gets into a stance. He isn't moving, and I'm not moving either. I decide to strike first to see where this fight is in terms of differences between us. I use my speed, and I seem to surprise him.
But I'm not buying that crap. I hit his block hard enough to send him to the other side of the room. He lifts his head with a shocked expression. I think it's all an act to get my guard down.
I'm not dropping my guard for a second. He straightens up, and he launches toward with a blade in hand, and he's not moving as fast as I'd expect. He's feeling out too. I take this as an opportunity, and I parry and counterattack. Getting a good amount of damage in.
Sending to the other side of the throne room and The Witness's debuffs are already affecting him.
"I didn't account for that damn blade... While you're not individually strong enough to kill , that blade is making up for what you're lacking in this battle... You should count yourself lucky..."
All of this is him blowing smoke. He's not getting to lower my guard, not in a thousand years.
"Are we fighting, or are we talking?"
He looks to have a prideful fire underneath him, and he leaps to . Moving way faster now, but I'm able to dodge and parry. Getting in counterattacks too. But this doesn't an he's not getting attacks in.
He's dealt 4,000,000,000 damage so far, and we're both around 90 percent in total health.
My wings are out and helping in this fight, and this is when I toggle on my Divine Title and start using my healing abilities on myself. Keeping the fight more in my favor. He scowls at , and I can tell this isn't what he accounted for.
This is good. It ans he was playing , and since I've beco a bigger threat. He needs to switch up his ga plan. His weapon can't hurt as long as I block with my wings. And he can't hurt . Nothing he has is of Legendary Grade or higher.
My wings are my greatest weapons and defense, thanks to this fact.
"Seems that I need to stop my gas. You've been on since the beginning, haven't you?"
I take this as a sign to activate Protected By Heaven, and I use Divinity Pulse for the first ti. Since we're in an enclosed Boss room, I can use it without harming anyone on the outside. aning Sally.
This attack catches him with true surprise, and I hit him with about 40 percent of his total health pool. The most dangerous thing you can do is underestimate your opponent and overestimate yourself.
"DAMN!! That actually fucking hurt! I'm surprised you have so many tricks up your sleeve!"
I don't waste this advantage I've gained, and I push him since I'm invulnerable. But he's barely dodging all of my attacks, and I'm only doing a couple of percent damage to his health each hit.
Instead, I catch him off-guard by using Divinity Pulse for a second ti. And you wouldn't think you could use a powerful attack like that multiple tis in a short period, but I can. He's sent flying against the wall, covered in his own blood.
His form is shifting between the ordinary-looking man and the monster as he groans in pain. He's got about 10 percent of his health left, and he's probably about to enter an Enraged state.
I don't want that, so I burst forward and drive the tips of my wings into his body, pinning him against the wall. I drive The Witness into his heart, and I watch the light leave his eyes. And I get a notification.
[Congratulations!]
[You've Slain a Fallen God!]
Fighting that Avatar helped prepare for this... Unfortunately for him...
