The Cold Blooded Hunter: Seeker of Peace
101. The loss of Lein Artha
He slashed his sword and I dodged quickly then moved towards him while thrusting the Black Flame Sword towards Lein's stomach, "Piercing the Sky!"
My sword moved forward piercing forward, and hit Lein's stomach until it pierced through her armor.
"Akh!"
I moved to the right side and pulled my sword again and then saw Lein's bleeding belly, "Damn it, I actually hurt it..."
I only used a little bit of my power to stab him, but who would have thought that a stab with that little power could hurt someone wearing armor, damn it...
Lein lowered her sword while her left hand held onto the belly of her left side as she glared at me sharply, "You!"
I was on standby again, I knew that Lein was now angry, but even though she was angry I still did not feel that she was dangerous.
"Heavenly Eyes, loose." I muttered and before long, my eyes that could previously see in the darkness, slow movements, and others, were now back to normal.
[Pinalti withdrawn!]
"The STR status affects your prick, and the large Crit rate allows you to deliver critical attacks wherever you strike even if not at your enemy's vital point." Zon explained, "Remember, your Crit rate is already at 20%, it's unlikely that all your attacks have a critical effect on even an armored enemy."
Ah, I see, if I keep raising my STR points, all my slashes can produce a critical effect, right?
"Simply so.." replied Zon, "But again you must not be too fixated on the STR, you must also raise your other status."
Lein rose slowly from his previously bent position, he raised his sword and his gaze grew sharper looking at me, "Kill."
[Warning! Eve kill felt!]
[Quest changes!
Finish Lein!
0/1]
"What-?!" zon and I were surprised to see the new Quest, "What does that mean?!"
Killing Hunter rank A? I feel he is not an ordinary Hunter rank A, but Hunter rank A who will reach the next rank, which is rank S.
His existence was different from the others, his ability was also not playful even though it kept failing me, but his movements I counted quite fast, and part of me told me not to finish him off.
"Pinalti or kill him?" zon asked suddenly, I think he had calmed himself down, "Pick between those two things."
"Kill." I tightened my grip on the Black Flame Sword and moved forward at high speed, while preparing my slash.
As fast as I could, I slashed his right side stomach and then stabbed him in the back, after which I jumped back and took another breath.
Wounds began to appear on Lein's body, and he quickly turned around then swung his sword from left to right then from right to left, left to right, right to right, and so on until I get used to the slash.
"The police will change, be prepared." Zon warned me, and I nodded at Lein's sword which was now preparing to stab forward.
"Feel this!" a puncture was launched and shot rapidly towards me, but I could still see it and dodged to the left side then moved closer to it.
I noticed that each of his attacks lasted less than a second, after which he would take a pause of about one to one and a half seconds to take a breath and re-start with the next attack.
In the stab earlier, I counted at least the puncture was launched within a split second and he took a breath of about a second, it gave me time to reduce the distance with him.
If I could slip into the lower half of his body and stab him in the chest from the bottom, he might die instantly without a last word.
The length of the Black Flame Sword was about ninety centimeters, almost a meter, and I would hold its hilt right in front of the stomach, so its remaining length was about thirty centimeters...
"The count is like ngasal..." Zon grumbled, "Count better..."
"That's a rough count." I ran, "And it's been gone for almost a second, I can attack it even from this distance."
"But your stab as fast as what? Have you ever thought about it?" zon asked, "Restimate your attack speed, don't just estimate the enemy's attack speed."
"Through.." I ran again and stopped approaching him after a second passed, "It's time." I then stopped about a meter away from him.
Lein stood up again and glanced to his right, which meant that he was looking at me. He raised his sword and prepared himself again.
In an attacking condition, usually the body will lack defense, that's what I'm after at the moment.
I was on standby with the position ready to stab, and Lein stabbed towards me, with a position similar to my calculations.
"Finish!" Zon was surprised, "How do you estimate it?!"
I dodged to the left and raised my sword to hold Lein's sword moving against me, while trying to reduce the distance.
"Curtain!" my guess was wrong, it turned out that he had another pattern of attack that I didn't understand, "Mistaken!"
Zon could be heard sighing, and he said, "You can push him to the right and bow and then run quickly down the ground as the sword slashes the wind."
I strengthened my grasp and pushed it to the right with my full strength and bowed quickly after Lein's sword crashed, after which I rolled to the right and stood up quickly then ran towards Lein.
Lein narrowed his eyes and slashed his sword again to the left, towards me, but I had already prepared my sword to hold it.
My sword was raised to the left with the tip facing down and I held the tip with my left hand.
When Lein's sword hit my sword a little more, I pulled it back a little and as it was about to hit me, I pushed my sword firmly until it hit Lein's sword.
[Counterattack launched!]
[You learned a new passive skill, Counterattack! When the enemy attacks and almost hits you, the skill automatically activates and reverses the attack power to the enemy!]
Lein's sword crashed, and lost its balance, making a crack appear on his body, and I used it to attack.
"Piercing Sky!" I thrust my sword forward, as far as I could stab, and it hit Lein's stomach, and I struck again with a stab that landed on the stomach of the other side, making Zon question the accuracy of my attack.
"Your attack didn't hit the target..." Zon said, "Are you sleepy?"
"No.." I pulled my sword, "I can't let Hunter seem to die, I'm sure he'll change..."
[Lein is unconscious! Quest failed!
Received the penalty for failing to complete the Quest!]
[Pinalti obtained!]
[You failed to complete the Quest! Title 'Cruel Man' retracted as penalty!]
