Wrath of Bloodborne

<p>As the battle started, I didn't leave any restriction and ready at full throttle as the man I'm dealing with is definitely in a higher realm than I.<br/><br/>Still, I pushed him back after equipping the Bow I obtained from that rotten elf!<br/><br/>Thinking back, I'd never thought it would be useful using than selling it. I felt that, I am the wind itself as floating in this wind current is a piece of cake, like a freefalling leaf. He told me it has a wind trait so yes, I felt like one after equipping it.<br/><br/>And with the use of my own agility, I stayed and hovers above as if stepping a solid air and keep knocking arrows. <br/><br/>To think that a single arrow would be this devastating. It is inevitable not to die here but I will die fighting!<br/><br/>I am ready to die, yes. But to die cowering is not in my motto!<br/><br/>So I keep on nocking arrows and keep my distance whilst pushing him and even knocking him back to the ground.<br/><br/>Dizziness arrived thereafter as I remembered from our last bouts, as if most of my lifespan vanished out of my body. My blood spilled everywhere after receiving damages coming from his double-curved sword.<br/><br/>So after pulling out my Bow, I keep a certain distanced, hence made this a stalemate until now, but. . .I can't help but clicked my tongue because right now, every arrow who leave hand is always been destroyed by the man known as Tornejya.<br/><br/>Damn it! I don't have a way to refill my ammunition! he already destroyed some of my arrows. Maybe after noticing that I looted back the arrows after dodging his attack made him realize how importance those arrows were for me. Thanks to it why he only had one sword remained. He always parrying my arrows which making me destroyed one of his in return.<br/><br/>Pshk--!<br/><br/>That last nock of mine destroyed his remaining sword, made the faint smile exited out of my lips but then...<br/><br/>Kuh---!<br/><br/>Suddenly, I heard a heavy sound coming from my right shoulder as if thick and heavy object banged unto my bone that I couldn't help but yelp in agony. When did I leave my guard down?<br/><br/>Ahh, What the hell!<br/><br/>With that, my body spinned after that sudden surprised and drop down but I follow up and activated the skill I grew tired of using!<br/><br/>The blood I spilled gathers and flutters around my body like an aura---<br/><br/>Blood Phantasmal!<br/><br/>And from behind my back, is a mirror image of myself is visibly created using my own blood I bathed, other than it is an incomplete form of course.<br/><br/>Gran keep on reminding me to always use my Blood related skill whenever I fought, but hell! How can I use this skill if I didn't bleed! That is why I only using it during this kind of time.<br/><br/>That is why, with this life and death situation and after remembering, I didn't think for a second and immediately used one of my 'Blood' related skill and threw my Bow and a couple of Arrows behind before I completely slammed unto the ground.<br/><br/>During descent, I took a glimpse of my opponent and he seemed to go after the bird who lost its wing. Of course the said bird was none other than me whose falling, hence I followed up using my skill.<br/><br/>From the smoke created by my own body and the ground from its collision, arrow flew off as my phantom-like blood finally completed its form.<br/><br/>And as I thought, this sneak attack won't work on him and only flail his Bó and destroyed all the arrows from the phantom I created as he said a word thereafter, of course its a word of a challenge but I didn't mind. Because, during the three arrows that flew off, I pulled another arrow and successively reverse grip my rusty-looking knife.<br/><br/>Thud--!<br/><br/>This is once in a lifetime opportunity! I thought. As the tip of his weapon entered my vision who brushes passed through my cheek. I gritted, dodging my head to the side and locked the remained of his weapon using my knife and one arrowhead on both hand.<br/><br/>As I thought, Tornejya didn't release his weapon even when locked. As weapon is an ultimate companion of a warrior, it is not an easy matter to release ones weapon even if ones life is at stake, so.<br/><br/>"Do it!"<br/><br/>With that groaned of shout, my phantom releases another arrow.<br/><br/>Ahh, Fuck damn!<br/><br/>I couldn't help but swear, of course because after all that, he's still alive and kicking even after that point blank attack, for pete sake! <br/><br/>Urgh. Sweat started to dwell on my forehead as he slowly raised his head. The arrow should pierce his chest but---<br/><br/>With clank, what drops is only a piece of shaft from the arrow. Surprisingly, the arrowhead is inside his mouth and spew it after. Blood is clearly visibly and is dripping off of it but he didn't battling an eye and said a word. "Amazing" he said in a repeating manner.<br/><br/>I can't help it. Jeez! To think this encounter will actually comes to this.<br/><br/>Why am I in this phase all of the sudden!? I don't like this feeling! In the end, I will have to use it?! Of course I would! I don't want to die here afterall!<br/><br/>With that determination, I activated the skill. <br/><br/>The last unreliable skill in my arsenal. Gripping both of his arm after releasing my weapon, l activated the 'Borrowed Strength of the Goblin King' I obtained after raiding one with Zero digits, and finally, the least of the skill I don't want to activate.<br/><br/>Wrath of Bloodborne!<br/><br/>The phantom I created is immediately dispersed, and now, that said blood is silently hovers around mine and Tornejya. <br/><br/>This thing needs a few couple of seconds to fully activates. So with the help of additional strength from the Borrowed Power, I didn't let go of Tornejya's arm with ragged breath. <br/><br/>Silently breathed as consciousness is slowly fading within my sight. My vision become clouded with blood. <br/><br/>Yes! this is the unreliable skill I do not want to activate because I don't know what will happen afterwards, as if another me will awaken from its deep slumber and my thought are slowly submerging, drifting to nothingness and emptiness.<br/><br/>But of course I don't have any split personality at all. Its just that, my mind is boggling. And my only thought as of this moment, is only to---<br/><br/>---Kill!<br/><br/>Yes! the only reason I have after activating this skill is other than to kill every living and moving target within my vision.<br/><br/>Like a slaughterer who doesn't need anything other than spilling blood using its own two hand!<br/><br/>●○●○●○<br/><br/>"What is that thing?!" A short yet confusing word came out of Tornejya's mouth after noticing the aura of Zero One!<br/><br/>This the first time he felt something amusing in his lifetime. Yet, is this fear? or excitement? his body didn't stop trembling!<br/><br/>In a contest of strength, he is stronger than Zero One, yet right now, all he could do is to watch until the end. Not that he want to move but in his mind, He wanted to see through it!<br/><br/>This is once in a lifetime experience! Why am I going let it pass!? He thought and sneer, sizing up his enemy as if it turned into another entity, looking at current Zero One whose eyeball are now crimson in color.<br/><br/>But in the end, he never imagined to be like this.<br/><br/>The blood around the two, transformed into red thin of smoke and form a steam that continously emitted and flutters around Zero One's arms and legs and back.<br/><br/>His vein changed its color and completely turned to either black or crimson, whilst made Torneyja's pupil turned big. Now that Zero One is completely synchronize with his 'unreliable' skill and the Borrowed Power is dissipated and released Tornejya. The latter immediately jumped back with his weapon and pulled out a sharp and pointed metal out of his dimensional pouch. <br/><br/>A Spear-head!<br/><br/>He immediately attached them at the tip of his stick, the stick whose almost the same height as him.<br/><br/>Who would have thought that a Bó of his turned out to be a spear!<br/><br/>Slate whose spectating, gasps his breath! Not only the current terrain of the forest but the aura of the two has completely changed, especially, the '#01'! whose now is like an angry warrior whose veins changed its color while new ones emerged around its exposed muscles.<br/><br/>"Grr!"<br/><br/>Round two starts momentarily, [Piercing Dragon] unleashed as Tornejya stretched his spear and 5 afterimage of his spear is formed, attacking Zero One who groaned after receiving twos.<br/><br/>Dodging the other three, Zero One shift his body to the side in which, Slate the spectator is surprisingly watching not far from there, is amaze of his sudden switch of posture.<br/><br/>Click--!<br/><br/>Slate subconsciously stepped back out of fear as the two is getting nearer---in each attack of Tornejya---and a piece of a tree branch created a noise below his feet.<br/><br/>His distance is not even less than a hundred meter this time and because the two is too occupied at each other, Slate silently sigh in relief, or so he wish!<br/><br/>With his sudden movements and the branch he stepped foot, Torneyja look at his direction after stabbing Zero One who spun to evade.<br/><br/>Dash--!<br/><br/>Tornejya squint and stride towards Slate direction and stretched his arm like a claw of a bird who was about to pounced at its prey.<br/><br/>As for why he did that. Torneyja is prideful. He never let someone see his pitiful state, now that he bled!<br/><br/>One the other hand, I will die fighting! Slate thought so and draw his sword and was about to parry Tornejya but Zero One with his [Flicker] arrived behind him whose knife brushed pass through his neck towards Tornejya, hence Tornejya side stepped to dodged it and quite surprised from Zero One's speed.<br/><br/>Slate is about to said his thanks but was surprised that a knife returned back in reverse grip and beheaded him.<br/><br/>[You Died!]<br/><br/>[Glass of Truth was dropped]<br/><br/>[Hide of Karuak was dropped]<br/><br/>---Is the only notification he receive before his vision completely turned to grey. . .</p>
