Chapter 113 Chain attack

Sometimes, what really makes human afraid aren't monsters, neither is it war or the darkness and silence. But it is humans themselves who commits the greatest sins, their greatest fears are also, their proudest creation.

Nightin didn't know why either, but this idea had just wham itself straight into his mind like a heavy truck without any warning.

When he exhaled, visible cold mist formed before his eyes, if it weren't for his robes which were still clinging tightly onto his skin, he would truly start to doubt that everything that happened previously was just an illusion.

"So human, care to share about that little tragic story of yours now?" The Crystallite Dragon asked as it got into a sitting position and even took out chocolate bars made of ice from somewhere.

When his sight met the sweetness, the dragon immediately pulled it back and said like a child "Don't even think about it, you wouldn't like it."

Nightin smiled as he assured "Don't worry, I'm not that bored. But still, are you that wary of me?"

The Crystallite Dragon shuddered for a moment and rebutted "Why do I need to? You're nothing but a weakling I can... Achoo!"

What? A dragon which is of the ice element is actually sneezing from the cold? Nightin was shocked by this fact as creases started to appear on his forehead.

"Human, don't think that just.. Just because I'm... having a cold... You... Achoo!" The dragon tried to explain, but it merely ended up forming a cute sight of a rolling dragon.

As for the fire bugs, the absolutely cold temperature has already made their movements slow, their movements were in disorder and while they were in a formation, it was full of gaps which left them exposed.

If not for the Crystallite Dragon, their movements wouldn't have been able to catch up to him just now. Their movements were synchronised and their formation was seamless.

"Little dragon, I'll talk to you later. Let me settle this annoying bugs first." Nightin turned around as killing intent exploded from his body, his wings of Order and Chaos kicked off a strong gust of wind and his Samsara sword, it was held in hand.

Circulating his spirit energy, he realised that it was much smoother compared to before. If an example was needed, the water spirit had given him the oil to function the machine at full efficiency.

Thank you, water spirit.

His sword, it was facing the ground. His gaze, it was on his opponents. His wings, they kicked off a storm.

Swoosh, Nightin dashed forwards as he slashed towards them, if his weakness was the lack of a chain attack, he'll comprehend one for himself right here.

But still, what would be the best approach of a self created chain attack? Would I one it to possess speed or destructive power, or even encompass both?

Even after a few minutes had passed, he wasn't able to come up with even the foundation, the concept of the move.

The fire bugs dashed for him once again as he quickly placed his wings before his body, shielding off the ferocious charge at the last moment before the collision.

The screeching sound of metallic objects sliding past each other made Nightin felt irritated, the sound was mentally disturbing even though it wasn't intended.

Should I take the easy route out and attempt to form a chain attack which consists of either the fire or ice element? Nightin thought to himself, recalling that he had once came across in a book that extreme heat or coldness might affect metals.

But on second thought, he shook off the thought. What he desires is an attack that won't be stopped by just elemental counters alone, but one that grants him the sharpness to slice through the enemies defence.

The Crystallite Dragon was floating about lazily as it watched this funny sight. That human, his movements are precisely timed, his attack power and even his... His foundation is near perfect, but why isn't he able to find the concept. The Crystallite Dragon thought to itself, its claws rubbing its nose.

"Argh!" Nightin slashed diagonally with his sword, his body making a strength filled turn midair, forming a crescent in the air as it teared through the defense of those fire bugs.

The crescent gave off a dazzling gleam just like the light from the moon, the air was avoiding it as its speedy momentum tore the fire bugs apart.

A clean slice, no explosion, no after effect, one slice alone had eliminated up to one percent of them, something which should have been impossible for him to accomplish.

What? Even Nightin himself was astonished by himself, he didn't even infuse his Samsara law into that attack, but he actually sliced through the fire bugs easily like tofu.

That, what was I thinking of at that time? That's right, my mind was blank and I shook off all those distracting thoughts, all I wanted was to destroy the wave of bugs... Nightin thought to himself as the image of a crescent formed on him.

"Hey, young lad, try to remember what you were thinking of previously and do it again!" The Crystallite Dragon instructed as it sneezed once again.

What Nightin didn't know was that the Crystallite Dragon was mumbling to itself in shock "How could this be possible? His wings are of the Divine laws of Life and Death, his sword was about the Samsara and this move of his, the moon itself was being dragged in?

The moon, a crescent moon was merged into that previous attack of mine. That's not all, the whole process felt so smooth, it's like I was playing a music and the sudden increase in tempo brought about that effect of reverberation in the air.

Having made this sudden realisation, Nightin raised his sword up high as he repeated the same slash once again, he was taking a great risk, if he fails to unleash a move with enough power, he would be giving up his life here.
