Chapter 210: Let Me Show You Mine
Mark ignored the look and watched as she raised her hand in the air.
"Well, now that you've shown me yours, don't you think it's only fair that I show you mine?"
Tha amount of sexual innuendoes in that one sentence was insane.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
The sky started to echo thunder as lightning danced around the air. The atmosphere around Mark turned electric, and he could feel the hair on his hands standing up as goosebumps traveled down his entire arm in response to the amount of static in the air! What the hell was she about to do? Don't tell me she is about to release an entire storm of lightning on me!
Does she want to burn down this fucking forest?
"Don't you fucking die on me!! Kaminari!!!"
BZZZTTTTT!!
The sky rumbled like an angered god as storm clouds formed over the area! They swirled in the sky and formed a vortex that blocked out the sun above them! The girl summoned so much lightning that Mark was sure he would not be able to dodge it in time! It was like an angry god sending down divine retribution!
BOOM!!
The entire area was covered in blue as lightning struck down on top of Mark. The girl watched in satisfaction and glee as the lightning tore into the area, leveling trees and causing deep craters to form in any area where a large amount of lightning gathered!
She was expecting to see a burnt and scorched Mark when the lightning finally receded. The girl knew that this much power was not enough to kill Mark.
She had seen Mark fighting against Calamity class monsters, and she knew that someone who could tank a hit from a Calamity class like Mark would not die to this much lightning, but that does not mean that they would walk away from it without serious injuries! Mark was going to be scarred for a long time!
"Is this really the best attack you have?"
"!"
The girl's eyes widened in shock as she heard Mark talking from inside her lightning! The lightning died out, and she was forced to take a step back as she saw Mark standing in the same position that he had been standing without a single injury on him! Even his shirt and trousers were still perfectly intact! What the fuck is this!?
There is no way that he managed to block all that lightning without taking a single bit of damage! Is this some sort of joke!?
Mark was now wearing a pair of black gloves on his hands, and the girl felt a sudden surge of anger rise in her chest the moment that she saw those gloves. Those didn't belong to Mark. Those gloves are meant to belong to someone else. Someone like her.
"Why do you have those? I can tell that they do not belong to you."
Mark looked at the girl in surprise for a moment before he blinked down at his black gloves curiously.
"Oh, right. You're one of Zeus' children. That would explain all the lightning. Well, I'm not going to go around saying something stupid like I won it fair and square. Truth be told, my patron god stole it from right under your patron god's nose. The bastard never even saw it coming."
Mark crouched into a fighting pose, and the girl took another step back as she felt something oppressive filling the air around her.
[Demonic Killer's Aura] had been activated.
Doom!
The girl felt a cold chill travel down her spine once Mark activated that skill, but instead of her to take even more steps back, she seemed to get even more excited as she took steps toward Mark! She was basically walking right towards him with no fear in her eyes!
"Kaminari!"
Bzzt!
Another wave of lightning drove from the sky, but this time it dropped on top of the girl! By the time that lightning died down, Mark was surprised to see that she was wearing something different over her regular outfit. It was an armor made from lightning. There were shoulder pads and a chest plate along with a metal-looking girdle that protected her gut.
Her feet were covered in armor-like lightning shoes, and in her hand, she held a blue sword made entirely from lightning.
[Fear] condition did not affect the opponent.
Mark grinned as he saw that she was still prepared to fight even though she was obviously at a disadvantage. Her skill didn't work on Mark at all, but she didn't care about that and she was still moving towards Mark without a hint of fear in her eyes! This was his type of woman!
"Now, what was it that you said to me before!? Don't die on me!"
Boom!
Mark suddenly shot off the ground towards the girl, and the girl raised her sword and brought it down in a downward swing that was so fast that it basically ripped the air molecules apart and boiled the subatomic particles in the air as the smell of ozone filled the entire region!
Bzzt!
Clang!
Bam!
Mark used the back of his fist to slam into the side of the sword and redirected it to the ground before he sent a punch straight into the girl's stomach and threw her into the air! The girl sent a slash towards Mark with her sword, and her grin only grew as she saw Mark tank the blow without taking any damage whatsoever!
Mark wasted no time and followed after her, and the two of them tore up the sky as they exchanged blow after blow in the air!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The people living around the forest all came out and looked up at the fight happening in the sky in shock as they wondered if they were under attack from another anima. The flashes of blue lightning and explosive sound waves were putting fear into their hearts, and most of them decided that they would move to another area for now until the fight was over.
The girl was trying her best to get Mark off her, but it was proving impossible as she noticed that Mark was always right there no matter where she went! How in the world was Mark keeping up with her in this form!? This was her fastest form! She could travel at speeds that were multiple times the speed of sound in this armor, and yet, Mark was able to keep up with her!? Why!?
Bam!
Mark suddenly appeared over her, and she quickly raised her sword to block her face as Mark released a devastating punch that sent her flying back to the ground like a rocket!
BOOM!
She slammed into the ground, but she didn't bother staying down for long as she raised her hand into the air for another attack.
"KAMINARI!!!"
What?
I didn't say that.
The girl was stunned as she watched Mark raise his gloved hand into the air and shout out her own skill. She didn't want to believe it. There was no way that Mark was going to be able to replicate her skill!
But there was no way she could deny the facts that were staring her right in the face as she saw a surge of lightning that was twice as large as her own appear from the sky and descend on her like a vindictive god!
BZZZZZTTTT!!!
KA-BOOMMMM!!
