Chapter 366 The Loyal Knight
"Oh yes, I really like them feisty."
"Grk!"
Gunter started to squeeze down slowly, and Fiona felt her throat growing tighter the more she tried to breathe! There was less and less air going to her lungs, and the pain in her rib was increasing by the second! Fiona started to kick at Gunter's body desperately to try and gain some space, but no matter how much force she used, she couldn't get him to release her.
After some time, Gunter finally loosened his hands a bit to give Fiona some space to talk.
"Are you ready to tell me what I want to know now? I could keep going if you need more time to think. I could do this all day."
"GASP!"
Fiona took in a deep breath as she felt air finally enter her lungs again, she inhaled deeply a few times to fill her lungs up again before she grinned tiredly.
"You're not getting paid for a year for this bullshit!"
PHWOOMM!!!
BOOM!!
Tylor suddenly slammed through the wall, and Gunter turned to the side in surprise as he felt an intense amount of bloodlust aimed straight at him. Before he could even get a word out, a stunning dropkick slammed into his face!
BAM!
Gunter was sent flying through the air and into the far wall, and Tylor caught Fiona and gently allowed her to stand. Fiona grunted as Tylor touched her broken rib, and Tylor frowned as he saw the amount of blood that Fiona had already lost.
Fiona was no longer using the full extent of her blessing to control the anima in the room since their number had been seriously reduced by Gunter so she was able to sense Tylor coming from the side with her blessing!
Fiona knew that if Gunter was more alert, he would have definitely sensed Tylor as well, so she tried her best to buy as much time as possible by making Gunter focus all his attention on her! She just never thought that it would be such a fucking pain!
[Fiona, I've opened up an alert at the Superhuman Alliance and called other members from your guild. They will be there in three minutes. You and Tylor should try to hold out for just three minutes!]
"Can you still fight, Fiona?"
Tylor's worry bled through in his voice as he looked at his guild leader, and Fiona told him to stop worrying about her; they had bigger fish to fry here.
"I can't do much, but I'll provide support. I'm going to turn off your pain receptors and limiter. Do you think you can get through him?"
Fiona was capable of altering a person's brain to a very complex level if she and the person had a lot of trust in each other. Since Fiona and Tylor have been fighting together for a very long time, she was able to alter Tylor's brain much easier than anyone else.
Tylor nodded as he stood in front of Fiona and glared at the wall in front of them.
"Ah~ This is getting interesting. A feisty lady tries her best to survive in this cutthroat world while using a knight in shining armor as her shield. It's a story good enough for a fucking movie. But you know, people like you are the ones that don't survive very long. Those who use others as shields while cowering in fear. You're too dependent."
Fiona glared at Gunter in anger at his jab, and Gunter's grin just widened as he knew he got under her skin. Tylor walked up to block Fiona from Gunter's view, and the two men sized each other up calmly. Gunter's hands were in the pockets of his shorts as he hummed while assessing Tylor.
"You seem like a brawler, you have a good stance. And you have a good look in your eyes. Bloodthirsty. I like it. But you can't hide that fear from me. I can smell it coming off you like skunk juice.
You're not even an S rank, are you? A little boy trying to stand up to his father. Feels like a family reunion. Too bad for you, I killed my family."
PHWOOM!!
Gunter suddenly released an intense wave of flames that engulfed the entire room in golden fire, and Tylor poured out his own flames in equal measure as his red fire surged to life and battled against Gunter's flames!
Gunter laughed at Tylor's attempts to challenge him and th golden flame suddenly increased in intensity!
Tylor felt Fiona put her hand on his shoulder as he narrowed his eyes at the fire all around her. Fiona said something to Tylor quietly, and in the next moment, Tylor's fire surged to life with a renewed intensity that shocked Gunter! The red flames almost blinded everyone as they poured out of Tylor like a typhoon, and Gunter's mouth split into a grin.
"Alright, son. Let's see what you've got!"
BOOM!
Continue your adventure with empire
The two superhumans suddenly blasted toward each other, and Tylor slammed his fist into Gunter's face. Gunter flipped with the punch, and in the next moment, Tylor saw the floor approaching his face at maximum speed.
What did he get flipped over!?
SLAM!
Tylor was slammed into the ground, and the floor of the room suddenly broke into pieces and shattered, sending everyone plummeting into the floor below!
Tylor struggled in Gunter's grip for a moment and finally kicked himself away from Gunter! He searched around for Fiona desperately, and he was glad when he saw that she was being carried by one of the anima under her control that had fallen with them! Fiona gave Tylor a hard glare as she used her blessing to make him focus!
Three anima suddenly burst through the ceiling from the upper room and grabbed one of Gunter's limbs, and Tylor didn't waste the opportunity as he coated his hand in flames and roared in exertion while sending a punch right into Gunter's midsection!
BOOM!
The punch sent Gunter flying back through the air, but Tylor knew that this wouldn't be enough to take Gunter out of commission! Tylor's feet exploded in fire as he propelled himself toward Gunter! He flipped around once he was on top of Gunter and delivered a massive dropkick that slammed into Gunter's shoulder!
KA-BOOM!
The dropkick had been powered by Tylor's flames, so it sounded just like an explosion had gone off in the tiny room, tearing the wall behind them apart in a shower of dust and soot! Right now, Tylor was fighting at a level that was far higher than any A rank should be. Normally, an A rank shouldn't even be able to touch a SOVEREIGN, much less injure them or take them out of commission at all!
But because of how Fiona's blessing worked, Tylor's brain had turned off the limiters that prevented him from using all of his strength. This allowed Tylor to exert strength that was two times higher than what he would normally be able to use, taking him from a high-level A rank up to an S rank.
But, just like all things, this immense boost in power did not come without its risks. Not only was Tylor burning through his mana reserves at an insane pace, but he was also burning through his own body. Tylor's cells were working at a level that was much higher than what they were used to or even what were ever supposed to be used for.
What Tylor was doing was just like putting fuel for a Formula One race car into an SUV and expecting it to run like a race car! It was madness!
