Last Hero
Chapter 23: The North Fortress

Marie and Kila had been surprised by what happened, in the fort they had destroyed the crystal but it had no effect.

A man they had just flown over laughed.

"In order to stop him you have to destroy all the crystals, we managed to deceive you."

The man was named Vortos, the representative of angry sin. He has a muscular body and can turn his body into iron.

"Truly nyan, we can only hope the others succeed in destroying nyan."

"You can hope for them, but you won't be able to hope for your safety."

Vortos lunging forward.

Marie and Kila managed to roll to the side until she herself hit the rocks from the rubble.

Vortos' body turned into iron. Marie pulled out the chain in her hand.

"He's a difficult opponent to face, Kila it seems you have to fight with your strength."

"You know what else, I'm actually good at making combat traps like this isn't my style."

Vortos looked on in annoyance.

"At a time like this you can just relax, I really hate you."

He ran to deliver his iron punch, Kila did not run but served him with the same punch until the two clashed together creating a gust of wind around him.

"What's? My punch can be withheld."

Marie slipped with her chain which was trapping Vortos' legs, she was pulled and swung in the air before being thrown away.

"Ah so I finally remembered who you are cat girl.You have a tail two I should have realized."

"You don't know I'm madam."

"I know, you who are said to be a wild beast are out of control."

Marie glanced at Kila and watched her up close.

"There was a martial event conducted between continents that invited various of the strongest martial experts to fight in the tournament, at that time I did not follow him but the rumor spread among us that there was a cat girl who managed to win it easily until the final, she defeated whoever her opponent without difficulty and was given the title as a beast. Don't know his obvious name he has two tails."

"Well, I think you're wrong" Kila tried to dodge unfortunately it didn't work.

No demi-humans had two tails even in their own demi-human territory, Kila was a special person.

"I don't care what happens, obviously if I manage to defeat you then I will be known as the strongest martial expert in the continent, this is quite a rare opportunity."

Marie took a long breath.

"I think it's better I don't meddle, please beat him."

"Eh, cheating nyan, I fight alone nyan."

Before Marie retaliated Vortos had already attacked Kila with some of his flagship fists.

Kila managed to fend it off but next he was kicked until thrown away.

He got up while wiping the blood on the tip of his lips.

"I still have a lot of strength, you'd better fight a serious beast."

"I don't like that nickname."

Kila took a large chunk of concrete nearby and threw it into the air, Vortos received with his punch until his gaze was no longer closed.

He was a little surprised that Kila had disappeared and appeared nearby

"Where is he?"

"Here is nyan."

"You?"

Skilfully avoiding Kila every blow, he continued to concentrate his strength in the hand and when it had gathered well. Kila just gave a reply.
