'Finally,' I thought as a smile appeared on my face.
The second check was finished and not a single problem was found.
Some ideas came, and small upgrades were done, but that's all. To be honest, I would have liked to have a third check and work on it myself
Unfortunately, it's not going to happen.
I am going to finish this race and then make a breakthrough into the Sky Sovereigns.
'Increase the speed by 12.7%.' I was in my thoughts when the instruction from my clone rang out. I immediately cleared my thoughts and followed the directions from my clone.
Finally, the end is within reach. It is about ten meters away.
I could feel the change in the body language of people around me. People also moved and now, ten of us are in the same line.
'Its time,' said my clone, and I moved with my greatest speed, using every ounce of the speed I had.
At the same time, I had launched the attack.
These attacks are specially made to delay them and used at the right time when the attacks from the track come.
I burst forward with everything I had while launching the attack constantly.
They reached fast, they dealt with my attacks and also the attacks of the track before launching their own at me and each other, but I was the one bore the brunt of it.
It is the reason, many were hesitating to be first.
The one who will move first for the last burst will bear the attacks of all.
I am ready and launched my own attacks and activated defensive shields. Not my best ones, but the second-best ones.
BANNNG BANNNG BANNNG!
They broke apart under their assault, but another took their places immediately.
Still, some attacks came, and I dealt with them with my sword. Just as dealing with the prime- level attacks coming at me and they are dangerous.
Fortunately, I am not the only one they are coming at. They are coming at everyone.
Their power is also about the same, especially for the four of us.
We are moving with everything, we have. Almost everything we have. I am not using the full burst, the same way, the shaman isn't using his beast mode.
It is the same with the red hunter and other girl from another world.
Though I am ready to use it, and I am going to use it, until then, I am going to push myself with the power I am currently harnessing.
Seconds passed and turned into minutes, and we kept running to deal with the attacks from each other and the track.
My clone ordered when there were only a minute and three seconds before the finished line. Full Burst! ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by novel·fire·net
I moved with the full bursts and a fraction of a second later, others activated their full power as well, including the shaman.
Everyone was surprised. Including those out of the world. The only one who isn't is the red hunter.
She seemed to recognize her old enemy.
Though, unlike most times, he isn't her focus. Her focus is on finishing the race first, and she is using everything she can, using her greatest.
She is really powerful. So, is the other girl and shaman.
The only reason, they hadn't beaten me was because I had made changes to the speed. I had been doing that, for weeks. Since I realized, I would make the breakthrough in this realm.
Attacks become more powerful. Not only of each other but also of the track.
They are coming without a break and from all directions. including below, I am tearing through them, defending them, and using them to move even faster than I am.
The clones are providing massive help.
Still, every moment is a challenge, and a simple mistake would end it all.
Screamed someone from behind and I saw red lance avoiding the saber and striking the man across the chest hard.
Sending him flying back like a broken doll.
That attack would have been fatal, but his armor and defensive method had protected him. Though, not without cost.
It would be hard for him to recover while in this realm. He will not be able to use his full power here.
I only looked at him for a moment while my sword tore through three attacks that had passed through my shield.
My clone reminded me, and I pushed myself harder, seeing others reaching really close to me.
I can not let them pass me. I have revealed too much to not come first. So, I dug deeper into myself and used whatever specks I could find from there.
The others launched their last flurry of attacks, and it was hard, but I was prepared.
I pushed the shield against the full power. Till now, I have kept some back like they had done with their attacks.
these shields focused on the tracks last attacked, which is, really strong.
Still, despite the strong shield. They tore through the through the shield and I moved forward with my sword with enchantments at full power.
A deafening sound rang out as my sword clashed against my sword before it tore through the massive ice column.
With me crossing the finish line, I stepped on the finish line.
I stopped with a big smile on my face and looked around at the nine lotuses around me.
"I challenge you to the first lotus!"
I was enjoying the glory when I heard the challenge and turned to see it was the shaman who
'Fuck!' I cursed in my heart.
Yes, one could challenge those above them. They could do it once, and I would only have to
accept one challenge; I could not decline.
"You thought you won?" asked the shaman with a grin. To that, I smile.
"I have, and I will prove that by killing you," I replied. It is a good chance to kill him because,
after the breakthrough, it will become really hard.
He might comprehend the rules. Fighting him, then, will be very dangerous.
Not to mention, there will be a more powerful blessing from the beast god. That is a terrifying
