"Lumayan...... This must be interesting".
Mereleona stood back up while spitting blood from her mouth after receiving a Dropkick attack from the Ritzia.
But, he was instantly shocked when the sudden Ritzia had already appeared in front of him and was about to raise her fist with her left hand.
However, Ritzia's boxing was soon blocked by Mereleona.
"Do you think I'll let it go".
Without Mereleona from a fist from the other direction that landed on his face very hard. Apparently, the Ritzia launched a Russian Hock fist with her right hand.
The loud thrust of the fist, until it made Mereleona higher than the Ritzia bowed.
"It's done".
Unwilling to throw away the golden opportunity before him, Ritzia aimed a left-footed kick towards Mereleona's bowed face.
Unfortunately, the Ritzia kick was successfully blocked again. And without the slightest hesitation he pulled the Ritzia's foot and threw it.
As a result, the Ritzia's body bounced off due to that powerful swing. As Ritzia was perplexed, Mereleona suddenly appeared in front of her with a wide smile.
"My turn".
DUDE.
"Ugh".
With all her might, Mereleona landed a hard fist in the Ritzia's stomach. And with her powerful rank, Ritzia's body shot out at high speed, smashing into the wall and destroying it.
The Ritzia who received the attack certainly felt an immense pain. Even spewing blood from his mouth.
(What the fuck just now..... I'm sure he's just throwing a regular fist..... But why does it feel so painful..... Like, I just got hit by a cannonball).
"Young, woi.... Don't fall first, little girl..... His excitement........ Just started".
The contemplating Ritzia was startled by Mereleona who appeared before her and raised an extremely fast fist.
Fortunately, Ritzia managed to dodge sideways, but what made her fall apart was that just a single fist of Mereleona could smash through the concrete wall very easily.
"Lumayan...... But, try to avoid this one".
Without waiting for a longer pause Mereleona again raised her fists many times towards Ritzia. And he was trying to dodge every successive fist strike that kept coming.
"Kahahahaha.....".
While continuing to laugh like a madman Mereleona continued to raise her fists blindly. And every time Mereleona's fist managed to land onto the concrete wall, it would definitely shatter and leave a fist mark there.
After that, Ritzia who had managed to avoid Mereleona's attack many times, suddenly stopped moving with her face lowered.
"It's tired, yeah.... Little girl? Now..... ACCEPT THIS!!!".
Mereleona immediately shot out a fist that was even faster than sound and was about to hit Ritzia in the face.
Before the fist hit his face Ritzia tried to restrain him by using her left hand, a loud sound occurred between the collision of her palm and Mereleona's fist.
"Martial Arts Technique: Swordless Seize Technique".
Miraculously Mereleona's body suddenly swirled and only stopped after her face hit the floor.
"Whoops..... That was almost.....".
What did the Ritzia do?.
Ritzia had just used her Swordless Seize technique. Ritzia tries to trick Mereleona by pretending to accept the attack.
And when Mereleona's attack almost hit him, Ritzia repelled Mereleona's attack by turning her horses upside down. It was a technique that could effectively match the physical strength of his opponent.
As Ritzia breathed a sigh of relief, Mereleona suddenly got up and was about to catch her. Ritzia who noticed that immediately jumped behind Mereleona.
And by utilizing momentum while still in the air. Ritzia gave a Dropkick kick this time on her back and utilized it as a foothold.
Mereleona who was hit by the attack, had hit the wall, but because the Ritzia attack was not too strong, so it did not provide any damage.
Mereleona immediately looked back at the Ritzia who had just finished landing with a big smile.
"The attack just now really surprised me, little girl..... Why didn't you seriously fight me in the first place?".
Mereleona praised the shocking attack the Ritzia had made earlier while turning her back.
"Sorry, Mereleona-san..... But, I again have no time to serve you".
"Haha...... Don't do it, dong...... Let's have some fun together..... And by the way who are you little girl?.... It doesn't feel good to call you that".
Having been silent for a while, Ritzia who fixed her standing position and then spoke.
"My name is Ritzia Sera Ingrid..... Just call me Ritzia".
"uh? Ritzia?..... Mmmm...... Waita minute..... That's how your name is I've heard, yeah..... But, when?".
Mereleona started to think hard when she knew Ritzia's full name. And not long after, he widened his eyes as a sign that he had remembered something.
"Heeeeee..... Holdin' a.... You mean.... You it is.... First princess of Ingrid Kingdom..... The Ritzia Sera Ingrid..... That one".
"Yes, it was me".
Without trying to deny, the Ritzia confirmed what Mereleona had said.
"But why is a princess here?..... Also, if you can be honest..... Which Royal Princess fought with empty-handed techniques?".
"I'm sorry if your expectations of me don't match reality..... But this is how I am..... Since long ago, I was not an elegant princess".
"No-no.... Quite the contrary..... I'm even impressed with a princess like you...... All right, I'll call you Ritzia and you'll call me Leona how?".
"Like you".
"Then.....".
Mereleona prepared to take a very strong design until the pressure from her feet alone to destroy the floor that she poked.
With high speed Mereleona shot towards the Ritzia and launched many fists and kicks that are very fast, strong and hard to beat.
Although the Ritzia managed to avoid all the crazy attacks, but every fist and kick launched by Mereleona always destroyed both the walls and the concrete floor.
(He's getting faster..... But, not only that.... He saw my movements and acted quickly).
"Haha....... You really move slippery like an eel, Ritzia-chan...... THEN LET'S CHANGE THE ATTACK!!!!".
Mereleona's figure suddenly disappeared from Ritzia's sight. Feeling something was wrong Ritzia immediately looked up and found Mereleona attached to the top.
Gaining the Ritzia's attention, Mereleona immediately darted down while landing a kick of her right foot that shattered the floor and blew away the dust.
Although he managed to avoid, the waves from the kick made the Ritzia slump a few meters back.
"How could he have done that movement with his big body?..... Shit, these dusts are blocking my view..... Now, I don't know where he's going to attack from?".
Without Ritzia noticing, Mereleona was already in front of her. By the time the Ritzia came to her senses, it was too late.
"Ugh".
Because it coincided, Mereleona immediately gave a head header right in the heart of the Ritzia with high speed. And the loud horn, they smashed the wall and entered another room.
Ritzia again felt a tremendous pain from Mereleona's head header until it made her regurgitate blood.
"It's tired, yeah.... Ritzia-chan is?".
Unwilling to let Ritzia rest or escape Mereleona directs a Vertical kick whose power is focused on the sharpness of the base of the back of his foot.
The Ritzia managed to jump backwards, but because the kick was so powerful that it created a shockwave. The real Ritzia did not stand up exactly, eventually bouncing away.
Looking at Ritzia who was still standing gallantly even though she had already bombarded the attack. Mereleona could not remove the smile from her face.
"It's incredible...... I didn't expect in this world, there would be a King's daughter this strong..... Usually, a princess of the King I know..... It is the person who will continue to be in the palace, sit behind a table, do some important work, and always hold and attend a tea party".
"No........ I'm actually praising you..... To be honest, I hate that kind of princess....... Ah, how do we say it so not clear..... Yosh, I'll continue".
"Yes, you're right..... Even though I'm a girl..... I don't like pleasantries".
Then both the Ritzia and Mereleona re-installed their fighting horses and prepared to continue their affairs.
"I've seen enough of your power...... Now...... I'll show you, Leona-san..... My real woman".
"Show me, Ritzia-chan".
(How did he survive all my consecutive attacks?..... Though the kick earlier, I intend to drop..... I have to admit, his physical endurance is incredible).
Although he looked smiling, in his mind Mereleona was actually wondering, how could Ritzia still survive all her attacks.
But, he decided to ignore that and focus on the Ritzia that was in front of him right now.
"Well, Ritzia-chan....... Show me more.... Now..... LET'S GET STARTED!!!!".
Taking advantage of the momentum that he was able to Mereleona shot towards the Ritzia at high speed. As their distance neared, Mereleona immediately launched a fist against her right hand.
But strangely, Ritzia simply avoided Mereleona's fist by moving her body slightly to the left.
(You are very strong, Leona-san.... You can't even be called human..... And allow me..... To use your speed).
In a slow motion, Ritzia directed a fist towards Mereleona's heart. If you notice, what Ritzia did only touched Mereleona's body.
But something senseless happened.
Along with Ritzia who breathed out from the mouth. Somehow, Mereleona's body felt an extremely strong tremor, and suddenly from her mouth started spewing blood.
"Wuh!!!".
And in the blink of an eye, his massive body shot out at high speed and until it shattered the concrete wall.
"Well, how's Leona-san?..... My technique is fun, isn't it?".
Seeing Mereleona bowed in her attack, smiling Ritzia asked Mereleona how it felt to be exposed to her technique.
(-----------------------)
The Gate Of Celestial.
A bare-handed technique that releases all its own weight and the opponent then focuses it into a simple palm fist.
Although it was only short, with this technique the Ritzia had a reaction speed and agility that surpassed normal limits.
After the unexpected incident, Mereleona began to rise from a position that had been bowed. However, just a few steps back he vomited blood.
While looking at the blood that was on her palm, Mereleona started muttering.
(Damn..... What was that attack, just now?..... I'm sure this girl just touched me..... But what is this pain I feel?...... It was as if he had just destroyed my internal organs).
Meanwhile, Ritzia was surprised and astonished to see how Mereleona managed to get up despite having been hit by a massive attack from him.
(Which is true, when I slammed very hard... But why is he still standing?).
"I get....... The technique you just used..... Is a technique to divert my attack power to myself...... By manipulating the flow of power".
Mereleona then stood up and fixed his fighting position. And looked straight at the Ritzia.
"Because you've been really serious..... Then I'll show you how serious I am".
Suddenly, Mereleona hit her own chest. Not long after, something happened to his body.
"WOOOOOOOOAAAA......!!!"""".
Immediately, an explosion of magic energy occurred followed by Mereleona's echoing cry.
Then, slowly Mereleona's body began to change. His somewhat brownish skin turned a gray blue. Not only that, but the back shows hard muscles. His feet turned wide. His black eyes turned yellow. Ears began to shrink and appeared a kind of long horn in the middle of his face.
Ritzia did not understand what was happening, all she did was to dispel the dust that was flying with both hands.
And the moment the explosion stopped, slowly the Ritzia began to lower her hands, and behind the dust was a huge strange figure.
When the dust disappeared and showed the figure, the Ritzia was shocked to death. Because the figure of Mereleona who changed drastically into a creature combined between humans and rhinos.
"This is a new power...... The result of the combined evolution between humans and magical beasts was incredible...... And I name this mode is...... Chimera's Mode: Springgan".
With a discordant voice, Mereleona introduced her new strength before the Ritzia who could only fall silent while dripping with cold sweat.
[It was a project or rather called an experiment. By combining Human DNA with the Magical Beast.].
He recalled Frey's words explaining what the "Chimera's Project" was being researched and developed by the scientists of the Strost Kingdom.
Ritzia also did not expect that Mereleona was one of the few people who had succeeded in the experiment.
"Because I'm already in this mode..... Get ready, Ritzia Sera Ingrid...... Because I'm gonna..... Destroying you".
(I'm sorry).
Ritzia muttered in her heart that considered herself unlucky, for having to fight with Mereleona in her Chimera form.
(------------------)
Back to Dylan and Awin's side.
"Yes..... Iknow".
Hearing his sister's reply, Awin or Kenji just fell silent and took his hand, then with a serious look he asked again.
"Then what is it?".
Silently for a moment, Dylan looked at Awin and started talking about what he knew.
"The reason why Claudia was kidnapped was because the girl had a very rare Unique Skill".
"And what is it?".
"His Unique Skill name is Amplification".
"uh? That shit.... I don't know at all?".
Awin grew increasingly confused after hearing the reason why Claudia was kidnapped was because of her Unique Skill. Having no other choice Dylan explained what he knew.
"Amplification was a Unique Skill that allowed Claudia to augment the strength of someone she wanted. Not just limited to magic enhancement. But, this skill would provide additional physical strength and regeneration speed from the wound beyond the healing magic in general".
"uh? Then Claudia can give a crazy buff to the person she wants?..... That's cheating!!!".
Awin was completely made unable to speak as he was shocked after hearing Claudia's Unique Skill which he considered a fraud.
"However, Aniki.... That still doesn't explain the real reason he was kidnapped".
"Let me continue the explanation..... You remember Frey-sensei's explanation of those who were looking for a "Catalizer" suitable for their ICA project?".
"Yes, I remember......... Wait up...... Don't tell me what you mean?".
Shortly after answering Dylan's question, Awin immediately widened his eyes when he realized what Dylan had meant.
"If my guess is correct..... They plan to make Claudia a "Catalizer" and extract her Unique Skill..... Then, they would use it to create the "Immortal Chimera's Army" and conduct an invasion of another Kingdom".
"But, Aniki.... Were they really able to extract Unique Skills from one's body?.... Isn't that impossible".
"Yes. Impossible for us.... But, for them, it's a "possible" thing to happen..... And I'm sure of it".
Awin was shocked after hearing Dylan say that there was a possibility that the Strost Kingdom's scientists, could extract Claudia's Unique Skill.
"We don't have much time left..... Go, Kenji".
"Alright, Aniki".
Not willing to waste time, Dylan and Awin again ran towards the main room where Claudia was being held.
