Chapter 57
Boom!
[Kieeeeek! Don’t come any closer!]
[What on earth is that human?!]
[Kurabil is! He’s angry! That Kurabil is!!]
The Death Mask spirits began to scream in terror all at once at the thunderous roar echoing through the Nightmare Gorge.
Below them, Kurabil tore through the forest with the speed of a gale, suddenly appearing above Khal.
Crunch!
Boom!
He then tried to crush Khal beneath both his hooves.
Khal evaded the attack’s range by a paper-thin margin and slashed at Kurabil’s body.
Swish! Boom!
However, the strike did not land. Kurabil had vanished once again.
Neighhh!
Kurabil then changed his strategy and launched a surprise attack on Khal.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
It was a suffocating exchange where it was difficult even to catch one’s breath. To others, it appeared as nothing more than sparks flying around Khal.
The tendons in Khal’s body, pushed to their limit by the excessive speed required to block Kurabil’s attacks, began to rupture. Still, he could not afford to slow down now. If he reduced his speed even slightly, he would be gored by Kurabil’s horn.
Human versus Phantasmal Species. Kurabil was overwhelmingly superior in terms of natural physical structure.
Vegenue, watching the fierce battle between Khal and Kurabil from atop the waterfall, wiped away cold sweat and asked Schmidt.
“Just what is his level? Even at a glance, he seems to have surpassed the level of an Aura User.”
“I don’t know. I only know that he hasn’t been able to use Aura yet.”
