Kai looked at Victor in disgust and he and Bob got ready for the battle against Victor while he looked at them hungrily. They all felt their restraints disappear as Victor instantly leapt in the air and pounced at Kai and Bob
Kai said to Bob I'll take him by myself, you can only help me if I need help. He then leapt in the air in an effort to intercept him and smashed into Victor, from his experience you can't change directions in mid-air. However, Victor reacted quick enough and he knocked away Kai's punch and instead extended his own punch at Kai.
Kai parried Victor's punch very much like he had as he used the momentum form his parry to backflip and using the backflips momentum kicked Victor in the chin sending him flying a few tens of meters into the sky.
Kai landed gracefully on the ground and won their first exchange of blows. Victor who had lost control of his momentum for a moment as a result of Kai's kick readjusted himself and landed on both his feet easily.
He then cracked his neck and ran at Kai, who also ran at him. Neither of them wanted to lose in terms of aggressiveness otherwise that would allow them to control the rhythm of the fight and in turn cause the opponent to lose.
Kai kicked his leg using a roundhouse kick while Victor lifted his arm to defend the blow. He then rammed into Kai causing him to take a step back which in turn allowed Victor to smash his elbow into Kai's gut.
Kai leapt back to gather his bearings, obviously losing that exchange. Victor looked at Kai and said to him "Alright enough of the warm up let's begin the actual fight."
His arms became wreathed in black flames and his nails became longer and turner into claws, while he grew a fiery tail and two small horns grew out of the side of his head. His suit remained unaffected by the flames and stayed clean underneath the black flames.
Kai looked at the new transformation that occurred to Victor Kai knew that his current physical abilities wouldn't be enough and then released the blood strands that formed his blood energy. The blood energy was in fact the blood strands that were turned into a gaseous form. When Kai had reached the second evolution of the blood orb his control and capacity had improved by leaps and bounds.
The blood energy manifested in the form of a red aura, which Kai manipulated into a large red semi- transparent trench coat that covered his body from neck down to his feet.
The trench coat was a defensive magic that Kai had developed called blood armour, it was a spell of the second grade. The spell had better levels, but each level demanded a higher energy consumption and more control than the previous grade.
The spell allowed Kai to have increased defence and endurance while acting as armour and could protect him from sharp objects. At the same time, he also performed all of his body enhancement spells five times.
(Author note Each spell and its effect:
Accelerate- 1st grade spell (stackable) increase speed by 10%
Invigorate- 1st grade spell (stackable) increase strength by 10%
Fortify- 1st grade spell (stackable) increase defence by 10%
Tenacity- 1st grade spell (stackable) increase stamina by 10%)
After the spell casting that Kai did he became much stronger. He then started to attack Victor without holding back and Victor tried his best to counter but now that Kai had become much stronger he couldn't defend as well as he previously had.
He tried to use his black flames, but Kai's trench coat defended him from their effect. Victor paused for a moment in surprise and anger and Kai used that opening to land a few unforgiving blows that sent him in the air.
Kai instantly moved behind him and continuously sent him flying in the air before releasing an explosion that caused him to crash into the ground and create a massive crater several tens of metres large.
From the deep crater Kai felt an incredibly hot sensation coming from the middle of the crater that was deep in the ground. From the hole a gigantic head the 3 times the size of a normal person rose. The head was that of a large black wolfs when the head rose out the rest of the body came out after it. A large half transparent black flame mane wreathed neck along with a large hound's body covered in black flames.
His eyes glowed with a deathly light and his hackles were raised. He looked at Kai with a furious look and became incorporeal then attacked Kai. His giant claw smashed down onto Kai and just at the last moment became corporeal again. Kai's coat didn't manage to withstand the impact and got destroyed.
Kai instantly jumped back and looked at the giant hellhound rushing to attack him and continuously dodged his attacks. He realised what Victor's unique ability that allowed him to be incorporeal. It was a type of space ability that allowed him to interfere with the surrounding space and make his body incorporeal.
But Victor's ability had a downside, it was that if he was incorporeal for too long then the space would become unstable and eventually collapse causing anybody who was inside the area to die without any way for a person to survive.
That was the way Victor managed to get to earth by mistake. He became cocky and fought against enemies that were much more powerful than him and when he fought against one extremely powerful opponent he styed in his incorporeal form for too long and space collapsed. He managed to find a space corridor that let him pass into earth.
Now Kai had been studying his ability while he was fighting but he couldn't think of a proper spell to use he considered using the spell [momentary destruction] Which caused space around the target to become shattered for a brief moment.
However, it was still theoretical because it was classified as a 6th grade spell and Kai didn't have enough energy to support the spell. He then thought the ability that he had absorbed from blightfiend the [soul aura] however instead of it having a big range and for it to damage the enemy gradually. It was instead condensed into a small layer that could be put onto a part of Kai's body, allowing him to do damage to souls.
Kai encased his fists with the [soul aura] and his fists glowed with a soft white glow. He released a punch onto the incorporeal hellhound hoping that it would hurt him. Kai was happy to discover that while the fist didn't connect physically, Victor still yelped in pain and retreated.
He glared at Kai with a look of anger, surprise and fear. Victor was stunned at how Kai still managed to hurt him when he was still incorporeal. He had felt much more pain from this attack than Kai's normal physical punches.
Kai looked at the aura clad fist and smiled a creepy grin. He cast the spell [weapon creation] a 2nd grade spell. It allowed him to create weapons from blood energy and depending on how much energy he poured into the creation of the weapon, the stronger it was.
Kai poured all of his remaining blood energy into the spell and created a long pike coloured red and was faintly transparent. Kai coated the pike with [soul aura] and it glowed with a white tint.
He pointed at Victor and smiled. Victor could feel that Kai was completely confident in his victory. He instinctively knew that if he didn't release all of his aces then he would die.
Victor released all of the black flames in his body in a large gush of uncontrolled waves at Kai. Kai was surprised because he felt a dangerous aura emanating from the black flames. He tried to dodge but he couldn't so instead he used the long pike to push himself over the wave of dangerous black flames. While he was mid-air he pulled the pike point in the direction of Victor.
Victor didn't stay idle he also released a blazing wolf head shaped flame at Kai who was in the air, while also raising his two front claws and got ready to smash them downwards if Kai managed to bypass the wolf head.
Kai who saw the wolf head pierced through it and managed to dodge the flames by sticking to the pike. After passing through the wolf head he threw the pike at Victor while landing on the arena grounds safely.
The pike flew straight at its target without stopping. Victor stunned at Kai's unexpected move and was too slow to react to the pike that was flying right at him. It went right through his incorporeal body but at the same time pierced and dragged his soul out of his body causing him to die instantaneously. After all Kai knew that almost every creature in existence except for a very select few would die when their soul was dragged out of their body, much less damaged like Victor's was.
The copy appeared in front of Kai and said to him that due to him winning all the fights he could now leave the arena. Kai an Bob were both teleported out of the blood world with a flick of the copy's hand.
This is the last chapter of this arena mini-arc. I enjoyed writing this arc. It helped me tremendously with creating fight scenes. In the next chapter, I will introduce Kai's created magic. So yeah...
